Indulging in Carnal Desire

Chu Jiao subconsciously wanted to struggle from this new hold, but at the next moment, her lips and tongue were suddenly captured by a familiar breath. This impatient kiss was just as eager and urgent as the ones back when they were younger, making it easy for her to recognize who it was in an instant. Moreover, aside from her little master, who else could it be?

Chu Jiao was pleasantly surprised. Wasn’t he supposed to still be at the border? Why did he return at this time?

Soon, the undulating cries for help from not too far away smoothly melded into the background as the two of them hid behind the reef, their bodies glued together, kissing each other as though they couldn’t bear separation anymore.

It wasn’t until Chu Jiao couldn’t hold her breath any longer that she gently hammered the young man’s chest before the man reluctantly released her soft lips and carried her out to the water’s surface.

“Did you miss me?”

The tightening hold around her waist made Chu Jiao suddenly realize that the person in front of her was the ‘darkened’ Jing Chen. She touched him, like usual, with pleasant surprise and gazed straight at his unchanging black eyes. “Has your illness been cured!?”

The young man snorted, “As expected, you only still care about ‘him’!”

“Why are you throwing a tantrum?” Chu Jiao playfully pulled on his ears, “I’ve already told you before. The two of you are one and the same, and the person I like is the whole Ah Chen!” Chu Jiao couldn’t really explain well what a split personality was to a person from ancient times, so she could only use her feelings to comfort the always-insecure youth.

At that time, the gruesome war had already begun, and Jing Chen was already on-guard against Marquis Weiyuan. When he infiltrated the enemy’s rear camp to burn their rations, he luckily heard their plans and learnt of the entire conspiracy that Marquis Weiyuan had schemed.

It turned out that Marquis Weiyuan had switched goals and had already planned on seizing the Emperor’s position instead. Moreover, the war this time was just the beginning of his devious plans. His original intention was to pretend to be defeated in the battlefield and plant a small group of Southern barbarian soldiers into the capital to cooperate with his people to assassinate the Emperor. He would then turn defeat into victory and enter the capital, gloriously to the rescue. Of course, the Emperor would’ve been accidentally stabbed to death in the process of this commotion, and he, as the brave and noble rescuer, supported his future son-in-law, that was the Sixth Prince Jing Chen, to serve as the Emperor, while he became the regent himself.

However, what Marquis Weiyuan didn’t expect was that Jing Chen was not as powerless and weak as he had imagined him to be.

Jing Chen didn’t meekly obey the assignment Marquis Weiyuan gave him at all. The moment Wei Yuanhou wanted to retreat on the battlefield, he deliberately exposed his identity as a prince. Even though he was heavily attacked by the enemy and suffered slight injuries, however, due to the boost of morale the Daye army had received, he had successfully repelled the Southern barbarians and threw a mighty wrench into Marquis Weiyuan’s plans.

The Southern barbarians then began to pick a bone with Marquis Weiyuan, and Jing Chen also took this opportunity to collect a lot of evidence against him.

Marquis Weiyuan already harbored thoughts of killing him because of this defiance, so Jing Chen simply assembled his trusted aides and returned to the capital first. Moreover, they had also learnt from Marquis Weiyuan’s secret blueprints that there was a secret path directly leading the outside of the city into the villa of Wei Yuanhou’s residence.

After traversing through the ditch outside the city, he finally found his way to the man-made lake and happened to encounter the scene of Chu Jiao falling into the water earlier.

After listening to Jing Chen’s narration, Chu Jiao started to worry about his injuries, “Where did you get hurt?”

“Is it serious?”

“If you’re hurt, why did you jump into the water!?”

Chu Jiao continuously shot out questions like a machine gun, leading Jiao Chen to get a headache. He then quickly covered his chest and loudly coughed twice, “Cough, cough, I’m fine. It’s not a big problem.”

Chu Jiao finally stopped talking and quickly turned her head to look at the calm Imperial Tutor Jiang, who was quietly sitting and drinking tea at the side, saying, “Grandpa, come and take a look! Are Ah Chen’s injuries serious? He has been soaking in water for a while just now!”

Imperial Tutor Jiang merely stroked his beard and waved his hand cheerfully, “I’ve already taken a look at him upon his arrival, and there is nothing wrong with him. He’s almost perfectly fine. No need to make a big deal, no need to make a big deal.”

Had Jing Chen already come back a long time ago? Chu Jiao puffed up in anger, “You grandfather-and-grandson pair ganged up to hide this from me, didn’t you!?”

“When I returned, you just so happened to be at the banquet,” At this moment, Jing Chen looked very honest and explained in a serious tone. “Moreover, aren’t I only trying to get rid of their family and marry you as soon as possible!”

“Oh, if you hadn’t mentioned this, I would’ve surely forgotten~ Why didn’t the Sixth Prince tell me he had a fiancée?” Chu Jiao deliberately made things difficult for him.

Jing Chen quickly held Chu Jiao’s hand, “Little Dumpling, don’t you know my heart? I only like you!”

Jing Chen pointed out to Imperial Tutor Jiang again, “Grandpa can testify, and the world can serve as a witness!”

Imperial Tutor Jiang nodded in delight, indicating that the words his grandson had uttered were completely true.

Chu Jiao stared at Jing Chen for a while, making him worried, “Wh-What’s wrong, Ah Jiao?”

“Alright.” Chu Jiao simply stood with hands akimbo, “So, you were able to control yourself a long time ago, weren’t you?”

Just now, she felt that something was amiss. It turned out that the ‘darkened’ Jing Chen had hidden himself away, and the honest young man Ah Chen came out to replace him!

“It… It was because of what happened on the battlefield last time… I felt like I was dying, and then he woke me up again… After that, we were able to start coexisting in this body…”

Jing Chen stared at her with a pitiful look, “Ah Jiao, I have already become so strange… Will you still love me?”

His black bright eyes seemed to have pulled Chu Jiao back to the day when she first saw him, melting Chu Jiao’s heart. She held his hand and promised, “Of course!”

Jing Chen happily hugged Chu Jiao in response, taking her by surprise.

At an angle where Chu Jiao couldn’t see, Jing Chen and Imperial Tutor Jiang looked at each other, and a mischievous look flashed across both of their eyes.

One by one, Yun Wan sent off the banquet guests to their carriages with a bright smile on her face. She then turned around and started throwing things around the room out of rage.

A perfectly good banquet was ruined by that horrible Chu Jiao! The reputation she had carefully cultivated for many years was nearly ruined by this one event!

She, Yun Wan, had never experienced such infuriation growing up!

Yun Wan assumed that Chu Jiao had managed to shake off her servant and ran off first. Feeling indignant, she was determined to teach this nasty woman a lesson. However, before she could even put the next step of her plan to action, Yun Wan realized that she couldn’t even leave her residence.
