CHAPTER 364 (1): PANIC IN FACE OF IMPENDING DANGER

Tan Ge was already apprehensive about anything that Xie Yun wanted to give her, but she didn’t have a choice in the matter. Forced to stand up, she watched as Xie Yun retrieved a small, white porcelain bottle from his sleeve.

Xie Yun raised his right hand and hooked it around her slender waist. As he pulled her closer, the fresh fragrance of a woman wafted into his nose, and he smilingly whispered into her ear. “Tan Ge, do you know what this Prince wants to give you?”

His warm breath brushing past Tan Ge’s ear made her uncomfortable, but she didn’t dare to push him away. Commandery Prince Xie puts on a gentle facade in public, but is truly terrifying in private.

“This servant doesn’t want to know, nor does this servant want it.” Tan Ge vehemently shook her head, her voice quivering as fear swelled in her heart.

11 pm tomorrow will be my final deadline. I already expected him to come looking for me.

Xie Yun’s hand slowly wandered upwards from her waist, and he carefully stroked her smooth face. “This face of yours is fair and rosy. You could have been one of Beimin’s three great beauties, but what is the point of being beautiful if the Tan Residence has lost its former glory?”

He then let go of her and opened the white porcelain bottle, causing the scent of medicinal herbs to assail Tan Ge’s nostrils. Unfortunately, she didn’t have any knowledge of medicine, and couldn’t tell what the powder in the bottle was.

The corners of Xie Yun’s mouth lifted as he slid Tan Ge’s sleeve up her left arm.

Tan Ge recoiled and looked at Xie Yun in fright. It’s the first time my arm is being seen by a man.

“Tan Ge, inform this Prince of your choice later.” Xie Yun gently smiled before pouring a bit of the bottle’s contents on her arm.
