Chu Qianli looked at Feng Jinrui, her eyes shining, mist gathering in them.
Feng Jinrui was all too familiar with that look.
How many girls had looked at him like that since he came of age?
Feng Jinrui's disgust for her instantly intensified.
"You... shameless! If you cannot prove your innocence in three days, even if my imperial brother doesn't act, I will be the first to kill you!"
He picked up his sword, exuding an aura of coldness, and strode away quickly.
In a blink, he was gone.
Chu Qianli stumbled, chasing him to the doorway.
She wasn't chasing him, but rather knew she had to get to the medicine storehouse as soon as possible to find some herbs to counteract the aphrodisiac in her system.
Otherwise, it would be too late.
The gate of Qianyun Pavilion was guarded by soldiers. Chu Qianli, using the last bit of her sanity, climbed over the back courtyard wall.
But soon, she lost her way.
Where was the medicine storehouse?
She had just married into the Xuan King's manor and was not yet familiar with it.
Everything in her sight began to blur again...
After walking for an unknown time in the darkness, she suddenly heard someone speaking faintly: "Your Highness, the Fourteenth Prince has safely returned to Yujing Pavilion."
"Mm," a man's deep voice, very pleasant to the ear.
At this moment, hearing it was like a mouthful of honey poured into her heart, making Chu Qianli's nerves go soft.
It felt so unbearable...
Under the influence of the drug, Chu Qianli's legs were completely out of her control. She fumbled her way towards the direction of the enchanting voice...
"Your Highness, the Princess Consort..." Qing Ming looked up.
What did this Xuan King's Princess Consort mean by climbing onto His Highness's rooftop?
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that the Princess Consort's audacity had reached such a level!
It was simply lawless!
"Leave," Feng Yexuan said faintly.
Qing Ming hesitated, glancing again towards the rooftop.
Finally, she nodded and said, "Yes, Your Highness."
The people in the room, who seemed to be in disarray, all left.
A gust of cool wind blew, and Chu Qianli realized she was actually lying on the rooftop of the Xuan King's bedchamber!
How had she gotten here?
This realization sent a chill through her heart. She immediately flipped off the roof and bolted, intending to run.
But behind her, that deep, cold voice swept towards her: "Finished peeping, and now you want to leave?"
A cold wind struck, instantly entwining her slender body.
Chu Qianli was pulled back by his palm force, crashing through the window and directly into the bedchamber.
This man's power never ceased to amaze her!
Her legs felt weak as they touched the ground. Chu Qianli couldn't stand and, with a thud, collapsed into his embrace.
Feng Yexuan felt a surge of disgust and reached out to push her away.
Unexpectedly, Chu Qianli, who had lost all consciousness, thought danger was approaching.
As he reached out, she bit down hard on the back of his hand!
The bite was solid, without any hesitation.
In an instant, the taste of blood spread between her lips and teeth.
Feng Yexuan frowned and said angrily, "Are you done causing trouble?"
Disobeying orders and leaving Qianyun Pavilion privately, climbing onto his rooftop to peep, and now daring to bite him?
Was this woman insane, or was she truly this audacious!
Did she think he wouldn't do anything to her?
However, why did the back of his hand, bitten by her, feel so hot and increasingly uncomfortable?
A mere skin wound was quickly making him feel feverish, his throat dry?
What kind of symptom was this?
Chu Qianli looked up and suddenly met his clear, cold eyes.
This chilling aura pulled back her scattered consciousness considerably.
"Feng Yexuan, what do you want?" Seeing Feng Yexuan blocking her path, she immediately pushed him away with a palm strike.
Feng Yexuan's eyes turned cold. He grabbed her left hand and said displeasedly, "Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?"
He had originally intended to push her away.
But for some reason, as he grasped her wrist, he suddenly felt her hand was so soft.
This soft touch made his mind waver, almost making him want to pull her into his arms...
