Chapter 14 – A Night of Dramatic Change (Part Three)

Ye Shengxiang gritted her teeth hard. Her gaze grew deeper and sharper. Something inside her had been pierced.

After a long while, the Dragon King finally released the beauty’s lips. He lifted his head, his lips curled in a smile, and swept his gaze over the crowd. “Qingzhou!” he called.

Ye Qingzhou had been enjoying the show, but hearing the tone of his voice, he sensed trouble. “Here.”

“You’ve worked hard recently. Tonight, the lead dancer will attend to you. The rest of you may choose whichever dancers you like to serve you.”

After greeting the guests, he picked up the beautiful woman, who had turned limp from being kissed, and walked away triumphantly.

Ye Qingzhou wore a bitter expression, silently complaining about his master. This fiery woman—she’s not easy to deal with!

Wei Bao followed closely behind the Dragon King. As he passed Ye Qingzhou, he shot him a look of contempt mixed with schadenfreude.

Ye Qingzhou sighed and snapped his fan shut. He gave Ye Shengxiang an elegant smile. “Miss Xiangxiang, this humble scholar greets you.”

…

Ru Ye had never considered herself a delicate woman, but enveloped in his broad, solid embrace, she appeared so fragile.

She had never been held completely in a man’s arms like this before. The powerful masculine aura and heat radiating from him overwhelmed her.

This feeling was strange, but she did not feel panicked. She had expected such a scene long ago. It was only being put to use today.

She silently counted his steps and his pace. From the corners of her eyes, she observed and memorized the route they took and the surroundings.

He carried her into a large bedchamber. The most conspicuous thing was the large bed against the wall, which was very large and luxurious.

He tossed her onto the bed and half-leaned over her. His thumb gently rubbed her soft lips. His breath brushed against her face. Her cheeks grew warm, the coolness in her demeanor began to fade, and a trace of seductiveness appeared on her face.

He pressed himself against her, kissed her lips lightly, and his hands roamed over her body. He did not want to waste time.

This was not what she wanted. She avoided his lips, gently pushed away his caresses, and sat up.

He raised an eyebrow at her.

She smiled faintly. In that fleeting moment of beauty, she was as lovely as sunlight falling on a flower bud in a corner of early spring.

Half-closing her eyes, she knelt before him and slowly began to undo her garments.

She truly had a perfectly proportioned figure.

She parted her pink lips and kissed his lips somewhat tremblingly.

He curled his lips. Playing hard to get? He was more than happy to enjoy the game.

Her tongue timidly tried to enter his territory as her arms wrapped around his neck. Her beautiful, long legs revealed enticing contours and a jade-white glow beneath her thin dress.

These things slowly stirred his desire. He felt the heat rising within him, and his eyes turned dark.

Her lips wandered around his, hesitant to move. He grew impatient and was about to cup the back of her head and take the lead.

But then, her hands suddenly tightened around his neck, and she kissed him wildly, pressing her body tightly against his. All the passion inside her seemed to explode in an instant.

Such passion ignited his own. They tangled together, their bodies pressed against each other without a single gap.

He didn’t expect that this aloof, quiet, docile woman would be so wild and passionate inside, igniting his desire.

When it came to women, he never needed much patience—they were always more impatient than he was. But now, his desire was fully aroused. He wanted nothing more than to possess her quickly.

However, she seemed unwilling to be possessed by him so soon. While teasing him wildly, she skillfully avoided his advances, provoking and igniting his desire again and again.

This was exactly what she wanted.

She never used seduction.

She did not like to be close to people. She hated others touching her body.

Perhaps for a beautiful female assassin, seduction was often a very effective method, but she never used it.

She didn’t like to use it, but that did not mean she was incapable of it, nor did it mean she would never need it.

Among the training she had received, this was one of the courses—and she had scored high marks or perfect scores in all of them.

In their investigations, there were countless legends about the Dragon King, but little that could help them kill him.

He kept a low profile and rarely went out. They had no way to track his movements, and outsiders had no opportunity to approach him.

Only by penetrating deep into the Dragon Palace could they find a glimmer of an opportunity, even though going straight into the tiger’s lair was extremely risky.

The only weakness they could find was that he enjoyed pleasure, good wine, and beautiful women. Therefore, after extremely meticulous and careful planning and deployment, they finally found an opportunity to legitimately enter the Dragon Palace.

Their gamble paid off. They had made it to this night.

Men’s preferences for beauty were fickle.

Ye Shengxiang’s charming and enchanting beauty had failed to captivate him. So she, their secret weapon, had come into play.

She had never paid much attention to her own appearance, but she clearly knew there was no reason to doubt it.

Although his actions were still within her expectations, she was still somewhat surprised when he actually noticed her quietly sitting in the corner. At the very least, it proved he was somewhat different from most men.

The reason he noticed her was probably because she had never looked at him even once. In that regard, he was not much different from other men.
