Chapter 72: Planning Against
Submerged in a pond deep within the imperial garden, Yun Ruoyan's disguise began to fade. She was like a beautiful crystal that lost its luster after being buried in the ground, thrown in a corner as nothing more than an ugly pebble to the masses.
But one day, when the dirt and dust were cleaned, its original appearance would leave the world awestruck once again.
Before riveting the world, he had managed to amaze Li Mo.
Li Mo stared at the pure face of Yun Ruoyan, the light dot in his icy blue eyes like a star glittering in a galaxy. Of these galaxies, Yun Ruoyan was the brightest star.
“At first, I just thought you smelled. Who knew you'd look so good too?" Li Mo's magnetic voice was hoarse. “More than just an instrument, and even a perfect work of art.”
The man's unique voice was like a piece of malt candy, sweet but not boasting, gentle but firm. As it slipped into Yun Ruoyan's ears, passing through the smoldering heat that swallowed her, Yun Ruoyan could not help but wrap her legs tighter.
Attacked by stimulus after stimulus, by Yun Ruoyan's astounding beauty and intoxicating aroma, she finally could not help it anymore and snorted. As if infected by the beauty next to him, his face finally turned red.
Due to the aphrodisiac, Yun Ruoyan's intelligence had been consumed by her sexual desires. The slight rationality he had left behind was only enough to identify the appearance of the man before him.
Right, he had to find out who he was with!
No, he has to find out!
Yun Ruoyan panted as she forcefully suppressed her desire to coil around her body, her legs crossed at her narrow waist. One of his slender arms wrapped around his neck, and the other traced his face.
Her face was as beautiful as jade carvings, her face was masculine yet still delicate. He had a protruding forehead with two sharp eyebrows, his eyes were mysterious blue in color, his lips were extremely red as if they were going to bleed at any moment.
Yun Ruoyao was too confused to think about the identity of this witch man, or why he was with her.
Instead, his gaze landed on Li Mo's slightly pursed lips. If those lips were really bleeding, surely the blood would be sweet, as sweet as honey.
Following the wishes of his heart, he kissed Li Mo once more.
If this was Li Mo in the past, he would have turned his nose to Yun Ruoyan. His cultivation was too low, so low that he did not even deserve to be his tool to grow stronger.
But now, Yun Ruoyan was no longer just an unpolished instrument but rather a sweet fruit, the most captivating and alluring fruit she could imagine.
As a man, how could he refuse such a tempting treat?
She deepened the kiss as she pressed Yun Ruoyan's head against her head, taking control even as she tilted her body backwards. Yun Ruoyan leaned against her body, and both of them appeared with small splashes between the surface of the pond filled with petals.
Li Mo's feet pushed the two to the edge of the pool as they kissed. When he felt his body reach the shore, Li Mo grabbed the riverbank with both of his hands as he flipped Yun Ruoyan, pressing down on her with his body.
His hands were a little more awkward than Yun Ruoyan's. Piece by piece, he took off the offending outerwear of Yun Ruoyan before starting to fight with ****** ********.
At this point, the potency of the drug had reached its climax. Yun Ruoyan thrashed and clawed at Li Mo's back in haste. The flames that ravaged his body caused him to cry uncontrollably, tears streaming down his face and merging with the pool water.
This was the first time Li Mo had considered female clothing disgusting. In the future, as her woman, she would not need to wear all of these, it would be best if she wore a simple robe, just like her, that could be easily removed.
In the end, Li Mo used the most direct and most effective strategy, tearing off Yun Ruoyan's underwear.
This sudden tearing sound seemed to create a mist in Yun Ruoyan's mind. An anxious voice Qiuqiu sounded, “Mistress, Madam, can you hear me? Wake up!"
“Qiu..qiu,” Yun Ruoyan finally replied.
Now that it finally got Yun Ruoyan's attention, Qiuqiu finally lowered his claws. “Mistress, you can finally hear me now! My throat was so hoarse as it was going to smoke, ” Qiuqiu continued quickly. “I can handle aphrodisiacs in your body. Do you want my solution, or the solution that is happening now? Choose!"
Qiuqiu understood Yun Ruoyan quite well and knew that she would be angry if she had an affair****free with someone under the influence of medicine. Even if it was just to eliminate the effects of the medicine, and even if the other party seemed good in all aspects, he knew that Yun Ruoyan would feel uncomfortable if not to do it willingly.
After all, Yun Ruoyan hated losing control. Unless he had to do so, he would not control others, but he never wanted to be controlled or attached to others.
Yun Ruoyan narrowed her eyes as she finally saw the appearance of the deceptive man suppressing her. Leaning his head and gnashing his teeth, struggling with all his might to endure the agonizing pain of his body and insatiable thirst, he said firmly to Qiuqiu, "I chose your method!"
"Well, then find a way to escape!"
After a long time of removing the cloth, Li Mo finally managed to uncover Yun Ruoyan's pure body. As white as snow and without even a speck of dust, his perfect body appeared under the moonlight, within the rippling pond, amidst a vast swath of phoenix orchids.
"All right." Li Mo's ice-cold blue eyes turned red, and he panted, "It's time to eliminate the effects of the medicine!"
He pulled Yun Ruoyan's waist and was just about to pierce through it…
... when his stomach suddenly went numb. As if his entire body was electrocuted, Li Mo became stiff.
The next moment, he fainted above Yun Ruoyan, and the resulting bursts of water landed on both of their faces.
Li Mo opened his blue eyes wide, not believing the drunk girl in front of him would fight back this time. In the instant where he was most unwary, he had struck his only weak point, one point just above his dantian .
Once again, Yun Ruoyan bit her own tongue, trying to use the pain to force herself to wake up. Gathering all of his body reserves, he pushed Li Mo away from his body.
Climbing out of the pool and casually picking up something on the ground to cover himself, he left without turning around and looked at Li Mo!
He left her naked and floating in the pond like a piece of driftwood.
His muscles were tightly clenched, and his long, dark hair was scattered behind his head like seaweed.
A moment after Yun Ruoyan left, a huge splash of water disturbed the surface of the pond.
Li Mo suddenly flipped his body, both of his palms clenching tightly. “The Yun Family garbage? Famous for its ugliness? Yun Ruoyan..!” These were the cold, half-frozen words of a man who was engulfed in his inner flames.
Under Qiuqiu's guidance, Yun Ruoyan quickly caught a small magical beast within the forest, the size of a cat. It was known to use an aphrodisiac that Yi Qianying had poisoned with her, and was even taken as a pet to members of the nobility with special. More importantly, her tears were the best antidote for all kinds of aphrodisiacs.
"Qiuqiu, how long has it been since I was poisoned?" yun Ruoyan asked. Since the duel, he was dazed, losing all the time.
“Not more than an hour. If you hurry back, you can still return in time for the party, ” Qiuqiu replied.
After finding the antidote, Yun Ruoyan hurriedly found an empty courtyard in the palace. The one he chose was not too close to the periphery, but isolated. Although it was not locked, there was a considerable layer of dust on the furniture inside. It is clear that no one has lived there for some time.
Surprisingly, however, the residence that was supposed to be abandoned still contained some sort of rather expensive lamp. Light is produced by night pearls, a more valuable analogue of moon rock. It released a pale white light and continued to shine despite looking negligent.
Fortunately, Yun Ruoyan found a set of clothes of the right size for her in one of the rooms. It was a full-body dress with colorful flower petal patterns, and even came with a belt. Many small butterflies had been sewn on the collar and sleeves of the dress with gold and silver threads, giving it a special appearance.
Yun Ruoyan reached out and cleared the dust in front of the copper mirror. His face appeared in reflections, after getting drunk, he turned pale, barely bleeding.
Without his birthmark, he looked amazing.
Yun Ruoyan hurriedly found water and took out a bottle of ointment from the dimension of her pocket to recreate her fake birthmark.
Because of how faint it was, the birthmark seemed a little darker than usual, but he had neither the time nor the luxury of being too concerned about the details. After refining his appearance once more, he hurriedly left the courtyard towards the flower garden.
After Yun Ruoyan left, Li Qianhan encouraged the noble descendants to start competing with each other. In the rush, everyone immediately forgot the hurried departure of Yun Ruoyan and Li Mo.
Not long after, various princes and princesses began to arrive. By the time Yun Ruoyan returned, the party had already gone smoothly.
However, Li Mo obviously recovered much faster than Yun Ruoyan, and he was already sitting lazily by Li Qianhan's side in front of the stage.
No one would know what happened during his brief departure, and no one could identify the simmering anger behind his laziness.
No one could have guessed that, when he showed himself in front of a woman and was about to have sexual intercourse with her, he would paralyze her and run away! He was, a man who had as much status as a dragon!
And then, with a burning erection and the flames of lust enveloping his body, he floated on the surface of the pond for a minute or two! He had never experienced such humiliation!
Not finding any trace of Yun Ruoyan, Li Mo gripped his wine cup tightly and finished it all in one gulp.
On the other hand, Yun Ruoyan carefully looked at her surroundings. The only familiar face he could recognize was Pei Ziao, who was involved in a series of trivial duels with several other noble descendants.
He could not find Yi Qianying at all. He seemed to go looking for something to quench his thirst and quench his fire, but would he be as lucky as Yun Ruoyan himself? It would benefit him if he did not!
"You, come here!"
As Yun Ruoyan was thinking about the things in her head, Li Mo looked at her and suddenly stood up. With an empty cup of wine in his hand, he pointed towards Yun Ruoyan. "You, fill my wine glass!"
Yun Ruoyan frowned as she looked towards Li Mo, not understanding why he called out to her. He's not moving.
"I said, come here!" Li Mo called again, his voice becoming somewhat angry.
Shaded by her hair, her face looked somewhat reddish from alcohol, but her dark eyes were so bright as to frighten. He was somewhat surprised by his outburst and attitude, there was no way he would be drunk enough to prey on him in a drunken state, right? [1]
...****************...
Remember, Yun Ruoyan was not clear-minded enough to look at the man she was with, and when Qiuqiu finally took him out of the medicine-filled fog, she kicked him and left without turning around.
