Luo Bai firmly suppressed the prey that sought to escape, letting out a delighted laugh as if releasing all the pent-up gloom within. With one hand gripping her wrists and the other pinching her soft waist, the rain poured down in torrents.
"Strategy level, heh heh, though you can't see it in the little black room, Shi Ye has a feeling you're in for it."
"Get lost!"
Yun Zhi Yue's voice was on the verge of breaking as she bit down on her teeth, desperately calling out Luo Bai's name, which only served to provoke him further. Luo Bai showed no signs of letting up; her body bore marks that made it impossible for her to serve the emperor again in such a short time—otherwise, it would be tantamount to seeking death. This was hardly a way to help her regain favor; it was clearly meant to torment her.
Time passed in a haze until she found herself being picked up and placed onto a soft couch for a brief rest, while the rain continued unabated.
Yun Zhi Yue cried out; she couldn't take it anymore. In this life, she was merely an ordinary young lady, and was this person trying to kill her? A scorching kiss wiped away her tears. "Shh, my lady must study well. The palace's secret arts are profound; Servant will personally teach you."
"You bastard!" Her furious words failed to escape as darkness enveloped her, and she fainted.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself fully clothed and lying on the bed, with nothing amiss around her. Yun Zhi Yue raised her arm; there were no marks at all. She sat up abruptly, feeling a dull ache in her waist. If it weren't for the strange sensation within her body, she would have thought last night was just a spring dream.
Her arm had clearly been kissed heavily last night; how could it possibly have healed overnight?
"How did Little Stone respond?"
"Ahem, well, Shi Ye didn't see anything at that time. But afterward, I applied some ointment for you. This Dimension has top-notch medicine. Your strategy level is already high; you're still a consort after all. He naturally wouldn't want you to bear any risks and restored your kiss marks before staying by your side until dawn."
Yun Zhi Yue felt no gratitude; if this bastard truly cared for her, he shouldn't have been so rough, leaving her fainted without releasing his grip.
"Damn it, I almost forgot to ask. Didn't you say he was a eunuch in this life? What kind of eunuch is this? You left me completely unprepared! Do you have any truth left in your words?"
"Uh, eunuchs come in different varieties; he hasn't been castrated. That Wen Ningmo is the world's male lead and also a physician—it's understandable that he would treat the strategy target well."
Yun Zhi Yue rolled her eyes. Great, she had encountered the aura of the world's male lead. With a world male lead as a physician, any difficult ailment would surely be no trouble at all in his hands.
Poor thing, she thought last night was just about hugs and kisses.
Cui Ling knocked on the door, "Your Highness, are you up? It’s time for you to wash up."
Yun Zhi Yue responded with a soft "mm," and Cui Ling entered with a basin of warm water.
Just as they finished tidying up, a servant came to report, "Your Highness, Lin Shunyi has come to visit."
Yun Zhi Yue was taken aback. Why was she here? She remembered clearly how Lin Shunyi had drugged her during the selection process and the poison she had received after being favored for the first time.
Since entering the palace, Lin Shunyi hadn’t caused her any trouble, but every time she acted, it was ruthless. Compared to the deceased Xu Xiuhua, this woman was even harder to deal with.
At Ri Feng Palace, their exchanges were polite and smooth, giving no hint of the malice that lay beneath.
She hadn’t found an opportunity to settle scores with Lin Shunyi yet, and now she had come knocking at her door? Wasn’t it just another scheme against her?
