Baili Jia Jue stared at Helian Wei Wei who tottered into the bathroom before he scanned the lit incense burners on the table with his small eyes. He was reminded of Nangong Lie's words during the banquet. He squinted and waved his long-sleeve before he left the bridal room.
"Bring me Nangong Lie," he spoke to Shadow in an unvarying tone. Upon hearing that, Shadow was able to sense the menace of the words. What has Young Master Lie done? It must be really bad to the extent that His Highness requests to see him on his wedding night. Shadow thought to himself.
Before long, Nangong Lie, who was in his holy robe in conjunction with the offering ceremony, appeared before Baili Jia Jue. With a roguish smile, he studied his good friend, "Really, Ah Jue? You only took such a short time?"
Baili Jia Jue threw a glimpse at him and said succinctly, "Give me the antidote."
Guiltily, Nangong Lie rubbed his nose bridge before he grinned and said, "Do you mean that you did not… That's impossible. By now, the effect of the medicine must have taken place. I reckon that all the normal women will surrender themselves to you just by looking at your pretty face. Is she still resisting? How can she be immune to medicine?"
"Quit your nonsense," Baili Jia Jue looked at him with a half-smile. "This is going to put me in a bad mood."
Nangong Lie felt a chill down his spine, "Ah Jue, I'm not reluctant to hand you the antidote. But, a 'thing' which is extremely precious on the wedding night doesn't have an antidote. I don't understand why you are asking for the antidote."
"Really?" Baili Jia Jue gently raised his eyebrows.
Nangong Lie heaved a sigh. "I swear to God." In fact, he was the victim. However, he was astonished by Helian Wei Wei's immunity to the medicine and secretly wondered what the woman was made of.
"Shadow." Baili Jia Jue retrieved his gaze on Nangong Lie and said nonchalantly, "Inform the elders of the Offering Tribe and tell them that Young Master Lie is slowly turning into a common man. It's better for them to arrange a sacred lady for him as soon as possible."
"Noted." Shadow lowered his gaze.
The devilish grin froze on Nangong Lie's face. For a very long time, he remained wordless.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Baili Jia Jue turned to look at Nangong Lie as he put on a wicked smile. "I like your wedding gift very much."
Nangong Lie was baffled, "Then, why are you doing this to me? This is not fair!"
"I like it, but it doesn't mean that she likes it too."
The statement was brief, but it was sufficient to frustrate Nangong Lie. You're way too biased!
As the night darkened, Helian Wei Wei stood in the bathroom. She lifted the wooden pail and poured the water on her body, as though that was the only way to extinguish the imaginary fire that was consuming her. Besides the immense emptiness she felt deep inside, she also felt the intense chill on her spine as if she was being stung on her back by innumerable numbers of ants. Her cape fell down and stuck at her waist following her movement. Under her bright red wedding gown was her fair skin that was as smooth as silk. Soaked, her gown cleaved to her skin, exposing the beautiful curve of her body.
Helian Wei Wei raised her head and extended her neck. Finally, a hint of soberness was seen in her teary and confused eyes.
At this moment, she heard a sound as the door was opened.
Helian Wei Wei froze. Being barely clear-headed, she had totally forgotten about the chance of Baili Jia Jue walking into her in this state.
The man who opened the door apparently did not expect to witness this scene. His hand paused on the doorknob and his gaze landed on her body. What he saw was a usually cold and arrogant lady who was being intoxicated by the medicine and appeared addled. Yet, her stunning features were extremely bewitching. Coupled with her black eyes that seemed to be covered by an alluring layer of tears...
Almost without much hesitation, Baili Jia Jue walked toward her.
"I…" Helian Wei Wei was carried up by Baili Jia Jue before she was able to finish her sentence. Then, she was forcefully held against the wall.
"What about me?" Baili Jia Jue's dark-colored eyes turned somber instantly. He touched her waist with the tips of his fingers that were covered with callus and was reluctant to let go due to the soft and smooth texture of the superior silk...
It was as though his long and slim fingers were the conductor of electricity. Helian Wei Wei felt a numbing current ran through her waist, causing her to tremble involuntarily. Her fair and petite body under her messy clothes was slowly unveiled. However, she stubbornly refused to give in. Nothing quite like her usual benignity, she said furiously, "I advise Your Highness to stay away from me. Otherwise, I'll take my revenge on you when I'm upset!"
"Take your revenge on me? How are you going to do that? Huh?" Baili Jia Jue leaned closer and gently whispered in her ear, "Moreover, no one is going to give you the antidote once I'm gone."
Helian Wei Wei clenched her teeth and raised her brows as she said, "So, you're the one who inebriated me?" In fact, she reckoned that was not His Highness' doing unless he had been lying to her all this while.
"No, it's not me." Baili Jia Jue said as he carried her up and walked toward a door that Helian Wei Wei had not noticed even though she had spent a rather long time in this room. "But, it doesn't make any difference."
What does he mean? Helian Wei Wei was too lethargic to resist. Being carried in this way, she had to almost bite off her lower lip to narrowly keep herself conscious.
With minimal sobriety, she was placed on an extraordinarily big bed that was covered with a lion skin rug. The bed was surrounded by a cage that was forged by real gold, making it appear extensively lavish and exquisite.
However, Helian Wei Wei was not at all bothered by these details. When the lion rug came in touch with the sensitive skin on her back, the iciness of the rug and her scorching skin made a distinctive contrast in temperature which later turned into shame that swamped her.
She knew what was coming next.
At this instant, she struggled to describe her feelings.
But there was one truth she needed to find out!
"Who intoxicated me?" Due to the heat, Helian Wei Wei was fumbling for words.
Baili Jia Jue said in a low voice and stern tone, "I do not wish to discuss any outsider at this moment. Moreover, I reckon that you need me and desire me now, right?"
Fragrance wafted in the air of the warm room. He was overwhelmed by Helian Wei Wei's sweet and feminine scent that carried a hint of mint-like sweetness from the wine. As he spoke, he leaned forward to kiss the white and smooth neck he had always yearned for. Meanwhile, his face was painted with intense lust.
The fierce masculinity together with the burning touch made Helian Wei Wei want to escape instinctively. Unfortunately, he clutched both her wrists with one hand while he seductively teased the tiny red dot on her left breast, that was hidden underneath her wedding gown, with the tip of his tongue. His other hand extended downward and caressed her long legs back and forth.
The passionate kisses triggered the remaining tipsiness within her body, causing her entire body to burn and soften before she gradually lost her consciousness.
His charisma, his power and his profound thirst for her completely subdued her reluctance.
The itch ran all over her body as Baili Jia Jue touched every inch of her skin. Her belt was long gone although her red wedding gown was still draped on her body. Even her undergarment was nowhere to be found too.
Helian Wei Wei's eyes were filled with lustfulness as her black hair scattered messily on the golden edge of the bed.
Baili Jia Jue stared at her teary eyes before he shifted his gaze to study her body. Realizing her refined and feminine body that was scarcely concealed by her untidy wedding gown, his tranquil eyes deepened further…
