C74 Bargaining
By the time Mu Yu Ting returned to the Rain Pavilion from the night, the night was already dark.
She asked the Blue Luan to help her remove the various pearl hairpins on her head and simply tied her black hair behind her head. He took off his outer garment and, wearing only a shirt, leaned on the couch to read a medical book.
When the Blue Luan saw Mu Yuting's thin clothes, it was a bit worried in its heart. "Miss, it's already the end of autumn and the weather is chilly. Would you catch a cold like this?"
"Nope." Mu Yu Ting's gaze was still on the book as she said, "Blue Luan, you can leave now. I won't trouble you to do the rest of the work."
Although the Blue Luan was still worried, she had been by Mu Luan's side for a long time. She already knew what her temperament was. Knowing that she had already spoken, it was very difficult for her to change her mind.
Not long after the Blue Luan left, another black shadow suddenly jumped down from the beam. It respectfully kneeled in front of Mu Yuting and said, "Miss Mu."
The man's voice wasn't loud, but in this quiet room, it suddenly sounded exceptionally ear-piercing.
Mu Yu Ting suddenly felt her heart slow down by half a beat when she heard this sound. Why would this man suddenly appear in her room? Furthermore, he had entered without even saying a word!
Do you know that people can scare people to death!
When Mu Yu Ting saw the person kneeling in front of her, all the fear and unease in her heart instantly turned into anger. She frowned slightly: "Ying, why did you suddenly come out? I have not called you! "
The Shadow General lowered his body to the ground and said in a low voice, "My apologies."
The silhouette didn't wait for Mu Qiushan to react before swiftly moving, extending a hand towards the back of her neck. Mu Yu Ting was alarmed. She subconsciously wanted to dodge to the side, but before she could move far, she was knocked unconscious.
The shadow skillfully carried Mu Lutong on his shoulder, gently tapped the ground with the tip of his foot, and jumped out of the window. The black figure quickly concealed itself in the darkness of the night, disappearing without a trace.
Within the palace, high walls separated different worlds.
"Mistress, Miss Mu is here." The silhouette carried Mu Yu Ting as he knelt in front of the man with a respectful expression on his face.
Xiao Cheng wore an ink-black robe with delicate, dark-red lines embroidered on it. His hair was not tied up, and it was left unbound behind his head. As the night breeze blew, it added to his bewitching charm.
"Yes." Xiao Xian turned around and looked at Mu Yuting, who was unconscious on the back of Shadow. The corner of his mouth lifted into a beautiful curve, and his eyes flashed.
He stretched out his hand and scooped up Mu Yu Ting. Because she was still unconscious, Mu Yu Ting's entire body was exceptionally soft, as if she had no bones. She collapsed into his arms.
Ying Ji had eyes. Seeing this scene, he knew that he shouldn't stay here any longer, so he slowly walked out of the room.
"Why, when I'm awake, I look just like a cat. Why does it look so different when I'm asleep?" The smile on Xiao Cheng's face became even wider as he looked at Mu Yuting with great interest.
If Mu Yu Ting hadn't lost her will and couldn't hear these words, she would have scolded Xiao Chong hundreds of times in her heart.
The moonlight was like water, the clear and bright light penetrated the thin window paper and gently sprinkled into the room. The white skin of Mu Qiushan, who was exposed to the sky, appeared especially soft under the light.
Looking at her neck, Xiao Zhen's eyes darkened. He took a bite and carefully sucked her blood. He felt that the restlessness in his heart had slowly subsided.
Mu Yu Ting was awakened by the stabbing pain. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Chen's magnified face in the depths of her eyes.
The feeling of the blood slowly flowing out of her body made her somewhat muddle-headed mind immediately clear up, and her pupils abruptly constricted. She had been knocked out by Shadow and brought here to help Xiao Chen drink blood!
As her blood slowly drained away, she felt her body gradually soften, as if her strength was slowly being stripped away from her.
"Xiao Xian!" Mu Yuting was anxious. If he continued to absorb this medicine, she would definitely die from excessive blood loss! Damn it, she had been reborn, and she didn't want to die under this fellow's mouth before taking revenge!
Her strong desire to live supported Mu Qiantang. For a moment, she did not care about her status or etiquette. She immediately stretched out her hand and tried to push away Xiao Chen's imprisonment.
However, Xiao Chen did not pay attention to Mu Qiantang's struggles. His eyes were dark, and his expression was a little abnormal. His breathing was especially hurried, and he seemed to have lost his rationality.
Mu Yuting became even more flustered, and increased her strength to push him. She began to use her hands and feet, "Xiao Chen, let go of me! If you suck me to death this time, what are you going to do next month? "
The harder Mu Yu Ting hammered, the tighter Xiao Chen's grip tightened around her waist. Mu Yu Ting was in pain and felt as if the man in front of her was about to tear her apart.
Mu Yu Ting steeled her heart and immediately used all her strength to leave and point at the acupuncture point on his waist. Although she had lost a lot of strength from the loss of blood, this trick still worked.
When Xiao Chen's hand loosened, Mu Qiantang was overjoyed and hurriedly took the chance to escape from his imprisonment. However, because his legs were weak, he felt a sense of helplessness after taking only a few steps, causing him to fall into a chair.
Xiao Chen shook his body, but he quickly stabilized his body and leaned against the wall to support his forehead. His breathing became more hurried, as if he was trying his best to quell the uneasiness in his heart.
His originally neatly combed black hair appeared somewhat disheveled, adding to his unruly aura.
The air suddenly quieted down, leaving only the sound of their breathing, gradually calming down.
Xiao Chen raised his eyes to look at Mu Qiuting, who was sitting on the chair. Her eyes were bright, and the madness from before had already disappeared without a trace. "I don't know why, but I suddenly lost control .."
He looked at his palm and a trace of self-mockery flashed across his eyes.
Mu Yu Ting didn't reply. Her face was as pale as paper. The fine beads of sweat had already dyed most of her clothes on her back.
"This King will try his best to restrain himself from allowing a situation that happened a few days to occur again." Xiao Xian's expression quickly returned to normal. He had changed back into his usual calm and carefree look, as if he didn't care about anything at all.
"But what if Your Highness doesn't have any?" Mu Yu Ting raised her gaze to meet his eyes, her heart full of lingering fear.
If she had inhaled a few more minutes just now, she would have been dead on the spot! She had not yet avenged her great hatred, so how could she let herself die in such a pathetic manner?
Thinking up to here, she tightened her grip around her waist. She definitely could not let this situation happen again. She could not afford such an accident.
"Your Highness, let's make an exchange." Mu Yuting stared at Xiao Chen indifferently, "I will develop a pill to suppress the Gu in your body, but from now on, you cannot absorb my blood. What do you think?"
