C75 Mandarin Duck Bath (1/2)

After eating their fill, Nangong Lin brought Yan Xiaoxi along as he walked around the palace hand in hand.

The sky was full of stars, and the moon was high in the sky.

The two of them had been married for such a long time, yet they had never had a good time together.

”Little Lin Lin, is the poison in your body related to Nangong Zhen?” This was only Yan Xiaoxi's guess. She had seen Nangong Lin's martial arts before. He was definitely one of the top experts within the Four Great Empires.

If he hadn't been plotted against, with his skills, it would have been impossible for him to have been poisoned.

”Xi Er, you don't have to worry about these things.” Nangong Lin didn't want to involve Yan Xiaoxi in his war. She was originally that simple. If she didn't marry him, she would be able to live a carefree life.

”Little Lin Lin, you have to trust me, I won't be bullied.” Yan Xiaoxi solemnly said.

She was extremely vexed at her own medical skills, but she was unable to cure the poison in Nangong Lin's body. She was even more distressed about everything he had experienced since he was young.

Those difficulties, those twists and turns, they were something she could neither imagine nor predict.

”I will protect you.” He looked forward to his father's arrival day and night, and that kind of scene was something he would never forget for the rest of his life. When he was young, he had already decided that once he met the woman he loved, he would only love her.

He had originally thought that that person would be Liu Zhixue, but who would have thought that Yan Xiaoxi would suddenly intrude into his life, bringing him a different kind of brilliance, a different kind of life.

At this moment, Nangong Lin was actually very glad that he was poisoned by that strange poison. He ended his marriage with Liu Zhixue and even found a woman that could move his heart.

On the contrary, it would cause an earth-shattering reversal. It was as if everything was destined to happen, because the Hundred Spirit Pill had married Yan Xiaoxi, allowing him to temporarily suppress the poison in his body.

Everything happened in such a coincidence that Nangong Lin once thought Yan Xiaoxi was a fairy sent by the heavens to save him.

”Relax, how could I be as naive as I seem? Actually, it's already good enough that I don't bully others.” Yan Xiaoxi giggled. She was speaking the truth.

Ever since she was young, regardless of what she faced, she had never been at a disadvantage. Of course, this did not apply when facing Nangong Lin. This man was simply too insidious and knew how to use her weakness to force her into submission.

”Play the pig to eat the tiger.” Nangong Lin muttered. How could he not understand Yan Xiaoxi's intelligence?

”Of course not, I don't care.” As long as she didn't cross Yan Xiaoxi's bottom line, she could turn a blind eye and pretend as if she hadn't seen anything. She didn't care that others thought she was foolish and naive.

”Little Lin Lin, you have me in the future.” With his identity, status, and circumstances, he simply could not trust anyone. He was lonely and proud like an eagle soaring in the sky, willfully killing weak and small animals, holding the power to kill and live on as he wished, with a seemingly limitless glory and the envy of tens of thousands of people. In reality, his heart was lonely.

Even if they got delicious food and no one shared it, even if they got the world, they would always be alone.

”Woman.” This was the first time Nangong Lin had heard such words.

No one had ever spoken to him like this, and no one dared.

Even Liu Zhixue, who had been doted on to the skies by him, would not do so. That was because in her heart, from beginning to end, he was not the most important person.

As for Yan Xiaoxi, she saw that no one else could see her at all. She saw through everything and went straight for his heart.

”I love you.” Yan Xiaoxi stood up on her tiptoes and gave him a hot kiss.

Tonight, she saw the nervous and uneasy Nangong Lin. She saw his other side. She knew that Nangong Lin was extremely powerful. His methods, his intelligence and his status were all extremely outstanding.

At a time when strong people were weak, Yan Xiaoxi wanted to tell Nangong Lin that he could completely let go of his guard in front of her, put down his disguise, and properly be her.

Earlier, Yan Xiaoxi had been greatly surprised by Nangong Lin's performance in front of her. However, she now felt that he had not handed her the complete version of herself. That had merely been a part of him.

Nangong Lin extended his hand and embraced Yan Xiaoxi's slender waist, enthusiastically responding to her kiss. This deep kiss was very excited, with a hint of release and relaxation, as if he wanted to tell Yan Xiaoxi his inner feelings in such a way.

His large hand restlessly moved across Yan Xiaoxi's exquisite body. His body was already incomparably hot. As soon as he came into contact with Yan Xiaoxi, Nangong Lin felt like he had transformed into a hungry wolf, eager to devour her.
