Chapter 78
Book 8 Chap 1 - Zhaos’ Resident
(From translation thread - Translated by slyphiad...)
When Xiang Shaolong returned to the residence, Teng Yi who had been waiting for a while said, "Yanran is waiting in your room now."
Once he heard this, he furrowed his brows, and said worriedly, "Both Li Yuan and Lord Longyang will send someone to watch over her movement, by coming here so rashly looking for me, sooner or later she will be found out."
Teng Yi smiled, "I’ve already asked her this question. She said she’s used to being constantly watched, so she’s already trained two subst.i.tutes. This way she can temporarily get away from the people who obsessively pestered her to do things she likes to do. Unless someone dares to charge in her room, otherwise there is no way to know which one is the fake one, so she told me not to worry."
Then he continued, quietly whispering, "Third Brother, you’re unbelievable. I can see that she’s so in love with you that she can’t even control herself. With a pretty girl like her falling for you, aren’t you going to thoroughly enjoy this world’s greatest pleasure?"
Xiang Shaolong can feel Ji Yanran’s astonis.h.i.+ng charm, that even this man of iron will could barely escape her charming attraction. Grinning, he was about to quickly return to his room so that he could transfer the l.u.s.t stirred-up by Zhao Zhi and her sister on Ji Yanran’s beautiful body when Teng Yi stopped him in the hallway towards his room.
Surprised, he turned towards Teng Yi, who looked at him with a determined expression, "I want to kill Tian Dan."
Xiang Shaolong was startled, suddenly remembering the tragic ending of Teng Yi’s family, which in reality, indirectly came about due to Xiao Weimou’s orders given by the mastermind Tian Dan. And now, Teng Yi’s beloved wife, Shan Lan’s whole family’s ma.s.sacre was also due to Tian Dan. No matter what, it’s hard for Teng Yi to take this lying down. Xiang Shaolong can’t help but feel a headache when thinking about this.
Everyone knew that Tian Dan was one of the Warring States’ period most fearful figures, not that different from Prince Xinling, and killing him is harder than ascending the Heaven. Besides they’re already busy with their own affairs and are in no condition to complicate themselves further.
Teng Yi placed his hand on Xiang Shaolong’s shoulder and solemnly said, "I know Third Brother is currently in a difficult position, we’ll just wait for the opportunity to come up! I’m not one who will act rashly without weighing the consequences."
Xiang Shaolong breathed a sigh of relief, "Second Brother’s problem is also my problem. Even if I have to cut myself in half, I won’t quibble over it at all.
Teng Yi was moved and patted Xiang Shaolong’s shoulder before he turned around and left.
Xiang Shaolong fastened his steps, quickly arriving at the inner chamber. Ji Yanran, scented with a sweet smell, threw herself into his embrace and kissed him pa.s.sionately.
As he was about to remove the face mask, Ji Yanran blushed, "Don’t! I want you to take me as Dong Kuang. Your display tonight made me thoroughly enchanted. Hai! Having to wait until now to be intimate with you, I already felt like I had gone through a bitter suffering."
At that moment, Xiang Shaolong was also burning with desire, his hands wasting no time in moving hurriedly over her arousing body, as he said with a smile, "When can Learned Lady Ji publicly surrender to Old Dong?"
Ji Yanran blushed as if she is drunk with wine, and gasped for breath, "Anytime is fine. Yanran really can’t bear a moment of separation with husband anymore."
Xiang Shaolong laughed out loud, "No separation between men and woman can have two explanations, which is the one that Learned Lady Ji refers to?"
Under the ministrations of his wanton hands, Ji Yanran trembled and panted, "Either explanation is fine, I’ll leave it all for Master Dong to decide."
Xiang Shaolong kissed her lips deeply and at the same time, roughly embracing her and moving towards the bed. Sitting at the edge of the bed, he let her snuggle in his embrace, still not letting go of her small lips. His empty left hand slipped through her front garment, wandering over her tender breast, fondling, rubbing and pinching.
Ji Yanran’s pa.s.sion burst out suddenly.
Xiang Shaolong is after all a veteran in this and would not hurry towards the climax He released her scorching hot lips and said with a smile, "I, Dong Kuang, probably am the only lucky person in the whole wide world who can confirm that Yanran is not made of stone at all, but even more bold and unrestrained compared to other beautiful girls."
Ji Yanran reluctantly opened her eyes, "You can tease me however you like. Ai! I can’t believe that you don’t even need to a handsome face to become the jinx of all women. Tonight, I saw Zhao Ya, Zhao Zhi and that Guo Xiu’er, were almost moved to tears by the touchingly sad parable. That was one splendid and vivid story! Even Li Yuan was crazily jealous of you."
Xiang Shaolong felt ashamed deep inside and suddenly remembered something, "Have you crossed swords with Li Yuan?"
Ji Yanran suddenly sobered up from her euphoric state, slightly nodded, "Yanran’s really muddled, I forgot everything when I saw you. Xiang Lang needs to be very careful with this person. His sword skill is quick, strange and elegant, not only wonderful to watch but also deadly. Although none of us emerged the winner, I already know that I’m not his equal and that he was giving in to me. Therefore his swordsmans.h.i.+p can only be described as unfathomable. From what I see… oh!"
The more Xiang Shaolong heard, the more alarmed he felt. Last time, he only won by a narrow margin with Ji Yanran. He could not gain the upper hand even if he tried with all his might, not to mention about giving in to her. From this comparison, Li Yuan’s sword skill must be even better than his was before. Luckily after he found Mohist Swordplay’s Addendum, his sword skill advanced by leaps and bounds, otherwise, he could only admit defeat now.
Even though Ji Yanran did not finish her words, her underlying meaning is that Xiang Shaolong couldn’t possibly beat Li Yuan, but she just couldn’t bear to say it out loud! He was secretly breaking out in cold sweat. This Li Yuan, regardless of literature or sword skills, has the conditions to make Ji Yanran admire him.
It’s just that he already had a head start, plus he was borrowing the 21st century’s knowledge, that’s the why he could win him. Otherwise, in the battle for love to win Ji Yanran’s hand, he could only be the loser nursing his grieve.
Ji Yanran saw that he was speechless and thought that his pride was hurt, so she said apologetically, "One never knows who the ultimate winner will be in a contest between the highly skilled, but I still don’t wish for you to fight with him, not because I believe that Xiang Lang would undoubtedly lose, but because I don’t wish you to take this risk. Oh! What is the worth of an ordinary person’s bravery? To be able to win on the battlefield is the true hero."
This was what’s called digging oneself deeper into the hole. Xiang Shaolong knows that in Ji Yanran’s eyes he doesn’t look promising when compared. He smiled bitterly, "Love is like a battlefield. Li Yuan failed in winning through literature, so he will try winning by sword so as to humiliate me in front of you. Everyone knows that Learned Lady Ji is looking for a husband who is unparalleled in both literature and sword skills. Li Yuan is trying to prove that he is this ideal person."
Ji Yanran smiled, "Love is like a battlefield, how well said. Now, besides you, I have no interest towards others anymore. Do you think Ji Yanran is a woman that constantly changes her heart like a loose woman?"
Xiang Shaolong joyfully said, "Of course you’re not like that, but you’re our loosed woman shared by both me and ‘Horse Fanatic’ Dong, so it’s impossible to not be lascivious, is Learned Lady Ji going to disagree?"
Ji Yanran’s face turned red, raised an eye at him, leaned closer to his ear, "Then Yanran can only accept fate, for a married woman must obey her husband. Since my husband wants me to serve 2 men, I have no choice but be lascivious. Yanran can only resign oneself to adversity."
Xiang Shaolong laughed out loud, embraced her and lied down on the bed all at once. Sure enough, Ji Yanran lost whatever restrain she had, becoming his dedicated promiscuous woman.
After two breaks, this beautiful woman cuddled in his embrace like a sheep, the corners of her mouth curved up with a satisfied smile, listening to Xiang Shaolong whispering sweet nothings in her ears, words that she will never tire of.
As a 20th century person, Xiang Shaolong does not have the behavior of men during this era who considers women as slaves. He understood the reasoning that women need love and care, so all women that have been intimate with him enjoys a happiness that is hard to find in this era.
Listening to his words like ‘You’re my soul, you’re my life’ and other words like that, Ji Yanran was so happy that she kissed him to show her gratefulness.
Xiang Shaolong was definitely in love with this enchantingly beautiful woman.
After another hot kiss, Ji Yanran heaved a sigh, "If I can quickly become pregnant with Xiang Lang’s own flesh and blood, Yanran will feel satisfied and fulfilled."
Xiang Shaolong at once felt cold sweat running down his body, secretly thinking that this is a big problem, and could only hum and haw as a reply.
As Ji Yanran was intoxicated with hope and joy, she didn’t notice his dissent expression. Recalling something, she asked, "What is your relations.h.i.+p with Zhao Ya? Why does Li Yuan think that getting her could hurt you?"
Xiang Shaolong remembered the love hate relations.h.i.+p he had with Zhao Ya, and smiled wryly, "Li Yuan probably saw me paying attention to her frequently and thought that I am interested in her. But in actual fact it’s another thing altogether and I have already told you everything about what happened in the past."
Ji Yanran replied, "I naturally understands husband’s intention and knows that you are the type that considers old relations.h.i.+p, so you still feel a bit of love left towards Zhao Ya. She really doesn’t know how to cherish herself, letting herself fall to this state, but this type of woman on the contrary can really attract men. I think both Li Yuan and Han Chuang are captivated by her already."
All of a sudden, she grabbed his shoulder and seriously said, "You need to pay attention to Zhao Zhi. I saw that Li Yuan and Han Chuang are also interested in her. Men like them, if they want to win a woman, they will resort to despicable methods."
Xiang Shaolong knew that she is very observant, so he was shocked once he heard this. If that really happens, Jing Jun won’t be able to take such a blow.
Ji Yanran bashfully looked down at her own breast, biting her lips, "Is it alright if Xiang Shaolong or Dong Kuang come love me again?"
Xiang Shaolong couldn’t help laughing, "We’ll just do it together, alright? Seems like I don’t even need to teach you to become a s.lut."
Ji Yanran was too embarra.s.sed and pouted and at once the room was imbued with l.u.s.t, indescribable loving and touching.
The next morning, Xiang Shaolong slept till the sun pa.s.sed the 2nd pole before forced himself to wake up, patting the bed beside him only to find it empty. Shocked, he sobered up before he realized that she had left.
Getting off the bed, he saw on Ji Yanran’s bedside the note that she wrote in her delicate and pretty handwriting, mainly to say that she couldn’t bear to wake him and so she left by herself. There were unavoidably words describing how unbearable it is to be separated, hoping that one day she can forever enjoy those sweet and charming words till sunlight.
Xiang Shaolong kneaded his backbone, remembering last night’s preposterous activity and felt both joy and shock.
What’s joyful was the boundless aftertaste. What’s shocking was that he himself was so exhausted that he didn’t even know when she left.
Last night, before the loving with Ji Yanran, he was already entangled with Zhao Zhi and her sister once, even though they did not complete the act, but his l.u.s.t was continuously stirred up and that makes it easier for a person to be exhausted.
While was.h.i.+ng and dressing, Han
