Chapter 179: My dear majesty, please let go (9)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
After a long time, Baili Jue let go of Xia Liang. Both of them were out of breath, which making the vibe between them more intimate.Xia Liang blushed and tried to catch breath covering her chest where her heart was about to jump out. But her eyes locked the man in front of her. Her watery eyes were filled with a touch of affection that she was not aware of.
The innocent and simple Xia Liang showed all her love for someone once she learned about love. She couldn"t hide her affection to anyone.
She was cold-hearted but she could be warm-hearted too. Once the pa.s.sion deep inside her heart was found out, she could pour her pa.s.sion on only one person.
Right now the affection in her eyes brightened her up. The soft and shy smile on her face and the brightness in her sparkling eyes was stunning and attractive.
Baili Jue couldn"t help touching her eyes which were about to drown his soul to cover the affection that he was crazy about because he was afraid that he might not be able to ask her questions if he continued to look into her eyes.
It was a strange feeling for Baili Jue that he was trembling in excitement and out of control. His instinct told him to avoid all of them because of what happened in the past and also because he was the emperor.
He was the emperor who was accustomed to control everything. The feeling of out of control was beautiful but also dangerous.
When he caught back his breath and calmed down, Baili Jue asked, “who are you? Why did you…? I want a truth. Otherwise…”
Xia Liang stood there and let him cover her eyes. The warmth of his hand was comfortable. She pushed slightly his palm with her face, like a cat wanting for petting.
She was sweet and soft like ever.
Baili Jue"s heart was softened by her movement and couldn"t say more threats. No matter how harsh he could be, his target was as soft as a cotton.
But thinking of how different she was before, Baili Jue calmed down and put on guard.
There must be something wrong with this woman. And something big! He had to figure it out!
He absolutely couldn"t be deceived by her and her sweetness and cuteness!
She was just an ice-cold wild cat who was so aggressive to scratch him a moment ago.
To his surprise, she dared to kiss him!
Besides, he not only felt so sick but instead wonderful. He didn"t even want to let her go and kiss her forever.
But none of this was normal.
Did she cure him or poison him?
“Say it! Who are you? Did you poison me?” Baili Jue asked coldly, grabbing her shoulders.
It was at that moment Xia Liang heard what he said. It was regretful that he didn"t remember what happened before. But it made sense that he had suspects on her.
“My name is Xia Liang, Xia Yuanzheng"s daughter here.” Xia Liang answered seriously, “it was just a kiss. I didn"t poison you. There is no poison at all in my mouth or saliva, or under my tongue. You can check yourself.”
Then she opened her mouth, stuck out her tongue high up so that Baili Jue could take a good look.
The seductive tongue reminded Baili Jue of how beautiful it tasted like. A heat surged all over his body. He wished he could taste it in his mouth and never let go.
Baili Jue missed a heartbeat and his face was even longer. Therefore, his face was colder.
She must have done it on purpose. She must be seducing me! She is seducing me!
“Say it without a tongue out!” Baili Jue said angrily, pinching her shoulder as a warning. But he didn"t use much strength, not enough to hurt her.
“Oh.” Xia Liang took her tongue back and asked, “do you believe me? Not poison you?”
Before he answered, Xia Liang thought of something and her face changed. She got nervous. She grabbed the hand that covered her eyes, searched for his wrist to feel his pulse, and said anxiously,
“are you not feeling very well? Don"t move. Let me check.”
Baili Jue was confused by Xia Liang"s anxiety and worries. He didn"t move but still cover his hand on her eyes.
However, realizing that she was feeling his pulse, Baili Jue was awkward and asked, “you know medical skills?”
“Yes.” Xia Liang responded and checked again. She found that he was very healthy and there was no sign that he was poisoned. She was relieved.
“You are in good health. You are not poisoned.” Xia Liang sounded happy and relieved. It could tell that she had been happy about his wellbeing.
“When did you learn medicine?” asked Baili Jue. He was even more confused because Liu Feng didn"t search that she knew anything about medicine.
Xia Liang gave it a thought and said, “I learned it a few days ago. No one else knows.”
Medical skill was a basic skill that she had learn from the first world and it would stick with her like fighting skills. It wouldn"t disappear as she went to different worlds.
“From whom?” Baili Jue sneered and said ironically, “are you a prodigy or not? You can learn in just a few days? Are you going to tell me that you have master fighting skills in just a few days and you know nothing before?”
Obviously Baili Jue didn"t believe a word that Xia Liang said.
He even suspected that she was not Xia Yuanzheng"s daughter. She might be a replacement of his daughter.
She was cold-hearted and calm in front of danger. She was good at fighting skills and medicine. All in all, Baili Jue had the reason to suspect she might be a spy sent by other countries. And she must be up to something now that she was living in Xia"s house.
The worse thing was that she was good at seducing men. Even he was flirted by her and his heart was melted down so that he didn"t want to kill her at all but instead wanted to keep her by his side.
What a formidable woman!
