Chapter 272: Chapter 201 – Sister, I’m Fine_l

After sensing the movement at the door, Chu Qingli hurriedly put her clothes back on, but just then, the door opened, and a familiar figure appeared inside her room.

Seeing it was Lu Chen, Chu Qingli was stunned for a moment.

In her mind, the events that had occurred in the study before flashed before her eyes.

Ever since she had struck a deal with Lu Chen, she had been thinking of completing the transaction with him as soon as possible, preferably serving Lu Chen once a day so that, after three months, her sister would be able to regain her freedom.

But Lu Chen had too many wives and concubines, and with her sister frequently patrolling the inner court, it was very difficult for her to find an opportunity to be alone with Lu Chen.

The key issue was that Lu Chen himself didn’t come looking for her. She even began to suspect that after Lu Chen had gotten her body, he was preparing to go back on their deal by reneging on their agreement.

Seeing Lu Chen appear in her room, Chu Qingli thought to herself that it seemed Lu Chen acknowledged their deal, otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to find her.

At that moment, Chu Qingli said coldly, “1 pay my respects to the Prince.” Lu Chen closed the door behind him and approached Chu Qingli as he spoke, “Qingli, 1 wonder if you still remember the transaction we made in my study last time.”

Chu Qingli said with an expressionless face, “I remember.”

Lu Chen said, “Since you remember, then why haven’t you come looking for me during this time? Don’t you want your sister to regain her freedom sooner and leave the North Prince Mansion?”

“It seems you don’t care about your sister as much as 1 thought.

Hearing this, Chu Qingli was taken aback. She would never allow anyone to say she didn’t care about Chu Yuqin. So she said, “I’m just afraid that my sister will discover it.”

Having said that, Chu Qingli unhesitatingly stripped off her outer garment once again, revealing her smooth and delicate shoulders, and declaring with a righteous demeanor, “Come on then.”

Seeing this scene, Lu Chen chuckled, as if they were indeed on a mission.

Chu Qingli was too direct and it was no fun. Lu Chen then moved to her side, lifted her turquoise outer garment, and covered her shoulders.

Chu Qingli was stunned by this, she had thought that Lu Chen had come to do that sort of thing with her; she had already taken off her clothes, yet now Lu Chen was pulling them back up.

Chu Qingli then coldly asked, “What do you mean by this?’

Seeing Chu Qingli’s icy face, Lu Chen felt even more agitated inside. Perhaps it was because he had absorbed too much skill just before, and his body wasn’t able to convert it instantly, which caused him to feel somewhat out of control.

Without hesitation, Lu Chen hugged Chu Qingli’s delicate body from behind, pressing his own against her backside.

Chu Qingli was somewhat speechless; this man was clearly here to do something bad, yet he was putting on the airs of a gentleman, such a hypocrite.

Who doesn’t know what he wants to do? What’s with the pretense?

Lu Chen rested his head on Chu Qingli’s shoulder and whispered in her ear,

“Qingli, you are truly beautiful.”

Being embraced by Lu Chen like this, Chu Qingli felt her body starting to heat up, and that odd sensation she had experienced last time began to return.

Suddenly, a blush appeared on Chu Qingli’s snow-white skin, even tainting her delicate, fair collarbones red.

Chu Qingli felt her body growing hotter and hotter, and her mind kept replaying the events that took place in the study.

Biting her silver teeth, Chu Qingli tried hard to control her body, attempting to stay alert and not be like the last time.

At that moment, Chu Qingli said coldly, “Don’t think that by using hypnosis on me, you will win my heart. You can only have my body; beyond that, you’ll get nothing from me. I won’t be hypnotized by you!”

Chu Qingli’s tone was very determined. In her view, all the unusual sensations in her body were caused by Lu Chen’s hypnosis; otherwise, she couldn’t possibly feel this way.

Hearing Chu Qingli’s words, Lu Chen couldn’t help but laugh. He liked seeing Chu Qingli being stubborn, though she couldn’t keep it up forever.

At that moment, Lu Chen whispered in her ear, “Qing Li, turn your head towards me.”

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s deep voice, Chu Qingli felt as if her body was being controlled, and she actually turned around as if possessed by a ghost.

At this moment, Chu Qingli’s cool and elegant cheeks were already suffused with the blush of spring, and her eyes shimmered like pools of autumn water, but she still tried to control herself and not to let her mind wander.

Seeing the ice-cold beauty’s shy demeanor, Lu Chen could no longer restrain himself and directly bent down to capture her red lips with a kiss.

After several rounds of patrolling the inner courtyard, Chu Yuqin patrolled to her own residence. She hadn’t planned to enter, but just then, some strange noises caught her attention.

Chu Yuqin immediately entered the courtyard, quickly pinpointing the source of the noises coming from Chu Qingli’s room.

Chu Yuqin thought Chu Qingli might be in trouble, so she hurried to Chu Qingli’s door and asked, “Qing Li, what’s wrong with you?”

Hearing Chu Yuqin’s voice, Chu Qingli suddenly snapped back to reality, her body tensing up at once.

Lu Chen inhaled sharply, thinking that Chu Yuqin’s timing couldn’t be any

worse.

Chu Qingli quickly said, “Sister, I’m fine.”

Chu Yuqin asked curiously, “I just heard you crying out. Are you experiencing qi deviation due to your martial arts practice? Do you need me to help you adjust?”

When she mentioned “adjusting,” Chu Yuqin couldn’t help but picture Lu Chen in her mind, the scene of her adjusting him in the study replayed in her mind, and at the thought, she felt her cheeks grow warm.

Hearing her sister offering to come in, Chu Qingli became even more panicked and her muscles tensed up even tighter.

Chu Qingli quickly said, “I’ve adjusted myself already, sister. You don’t need to worry. Um! Go on with your… Ah… own things.”

Noticing Chu Qingli speaking intermittently, Chu Yuqin knitted her brows slightly. “Qing Li, are you really all right?”

Chu Qingli wished she could sever her connection with Lu Chen with a single cut. Clenching her teeth, she struggled to keep her breath steady and said, “I… I’m really… okay…”

Hearing Chu Qingli’s words, Chu Yuqin continued walking toward the door again.

Something is off…

Very off…

There must be something wrong with Chu Qingli.

Feeling the footsteps at the door getting closer, Chu Qingli’s tense nerves were completely taut.

Chu Qingli hurriedly said again, “Sister… although the Prince has dealt with many assassins, this is precisely the time when the Prince’s Mansion cannot afford to relax its vigilance. You… should go back to patrolling.

“I… just experienced qi deviation while practicing… Air… it’s an old problem, 1’11 be fine soon.”

Chu Yuqin felt there was some truth to Chu Qingli’s words, although Lu Chen had indeed dealt with many an assassin in Yan County.

Yet there were still more assassins lurking in Yan County, and who knew if those assassins would take advantage of the North Prince Mansion lowering its guard to assault Lu Chen.

With this in mind, Chu Yuqin said, “Alright then, if you’re really feeling unwell, just tell your sister. There’s no need to endure silently. If I can’t fix it, you can also ask Chen’er for help. Chen’er has medical skills; he can easily cure you.”

Chu Qingli said, “Um, I… understand.”

Without giving it further thought, Chu Yuqin turned and left directly..
