Chapter 154

Having drunk two cups of wine, Duanmu Xi blushed all over her face and started to feel light-headed. Obviously, she was a bit drunk.

Xuanyuan Mo’s passionate kiss made her even drunker. She slowly closed her eyes and couldn’t help responding to him.

As he felt that she was also twisting her tongue with his, Xuanyuan Mo’s heart thumped. Then, he kissed more passionately.

It was getting hotter and hotter in the room. Their breathing became increasingly disordered.

Xuanyuan Mo slowly opened his eyes. His amber eyes had become red with lust.

Xuanyuan Mo looked at the tender woman in his arms and his eyes became darker. He took off her coronet gently, leaving her long black hair to scatter like a fall.

Xuanyuan Mo’s action made Duanmu Xi slightly sober. She opened her eyes in confusion, “Snow.”

Her red face, purple eyes full of desire, slightly swollen rosy lips and bewitching calling were all lethally attractive for Xuanyuan Mo.

He directly carried her in his arms, waved away the auspicious nuts on the bed and then put her on the bed gently.

Her long black hair scatted on the red bed like silk. The visual shock of black and red made Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes become dark again. He bent down and towered over her body directly.

Looking at Xuanyuan Mo getting closer and closer, Duanmu Xi felt so nervous with her heart pounding. She clutched the red sheet with both hands and her breath even started to become hurried.

Xuanyuan Mo recognized Duanmu Xi’s nervousness and then bent down to kiss the middle of her eyebrows affectionately, “Don’t be afraid…”

His hoarse and fascinating voice instantly soothed Duanmu Xi’s nerves as if having some special magic.

Feeling that Duanmu Xi was relaxed, Xuanyuan Mo finally bent down and kissed her on the red lips.

He acted extremely softly as if he were afraid of breaking the most precious treasure beneath him.

His kiss slowly got away from her lips and moved to her fair-skinned and long neck, leaving his loving hickeys.

Duanmu Xi slowly closed her eyes and undertook his love tremblingly.

Her long and curly eyelashes slightly twitched as she breathed hurriedly. The blush on her cheeks accentuated her tender and lovely flower-like skin.

Looking at Duanmu Xi under him who was as ethereal as a flower fairy and as coquettish as a night elf, Xuanyuan Mo held his breath and captured her delicate earlobe with his lips and licked the tip of her ear.

“Umm…” The extreme feeling of pleasure made Duanmu Xi quiver and groan.

Xuanyuan Mo felt a sensation in his abdomen. The coquettish groan kindled all his desire. He kissed her more passionately and subconsciously moved his hand on her body.

Duanmu Xi felt that a wave of heat was surging in her body, making her want more. She subconsciously hunched her body slightly and meanwhile put her hands into Xuanyuan Mo’s collars. By instinct, she started to stroke his strong chest.

Duanmu Xi’s subconscious actions aroused Xuanyuan Mo’s desire even more. The sensation in his body almost burned off his rationality.

His kiss became even more passionate and wilder. He almost meant to swallow her.

Their clothes were gradually taken off. Very quickly, Xuanyuan Mo was naked with his chest exposed. Duanmu Xi was also half-naked. Her red bellyband was discernible, which turned Xuanyuan Mo on again.

Duanmu Xi stroked his right shoulder tenderly. The uneven touch made Duanmu Xi open her eyes instantly.

When she saw the familiar bite mark, Duanmu Xi widened her eyes. Why was this bite mark still so clear? Did she bite too harshly?

“Why is it not recovered yet?” Duanmu Xi gently stroked the bite mark and her lustful voice was full of pity.

Xuanyuan Mo looked down at the bite mark on his right shoulder, his amber eyes glittering with a shimmer of hesitation. He didn’t say anything.

Duanmu Xi was still stroking the bite mark. She looked at Xuanyuan Mo and said, “Does it still hurt? I’ve got some medicine. Let me give it to you.”

Then, Duanmu Xi wanted to get up but she was stopped by Xuanyuan Mo.

“No need. This mark can never be removed.” His hoarse voice still carried desire.

Duanmu Xi was astonished to hear that. How was it possible? Even though the bite bled, it couldn’t be so severe! How could such a mark be left?

“I’m sorry…” Tears welled up in her dark purple eyes. She didn’t know it would be so serious. Although it was small, he still had a mark on his body.

Staring at the tears in Duanmu Xi’s eyes, Xuanyuan Mo felt his heart aching and bent to kiss her on the eyes gently.

“Silly, I deliberately darkened the mark with my mysterious Qi. I don’t want it to disappear.”

“Why?” Duanmu Xi was dumbfounded. She didn’t understand. He clearly forgot her and what they had done that day. Why did he keep the bite mark?

Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes sparkled, “Because of you, because it was left by you.”

He kept it for her back then. Due to her tears, he wanted to keep it. What she said today made him even surer that the bite mark on his right shoulder was left by her.

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi had an idea flashing through her mind.

“Snow, have you got your memory back?” Her somewhat excited voice was a mixture of surprise and expectation.

When Xuanyuan Mo saw Duanmu Xi’s crystalline purple eyes, his eyes slightly glistened, “I didn’t lose any memory.”

Duanmu Xi’s crystalline eyes became dim again. She cracked a self-mocking smile, “Oh yeah. I forgot it. You didn’t lose any memory at all.” He just didn’t remember her.

Duanmu Xi pulled her messy clothes, turned her back to Xuanyuan Mo and then curled into a ball.

She looked so lonely and helpless from behind.

Xuanyuan Mo felt so painful as if his heart were being torn apart.

He hugged her from behind gently and buried his face in her hair, murmuring, “I’m sorry…”

He was sorry that he forgot her. He was sorry that he forgot what had happened between them. He was so sorry… He had no idea what else he could say except “sorry”.

What he said made Duanmu Xi’s heart clench. Tears rolled down from her eyes instantly.

Sensing that Duanmu Xi was shivering, Xuanyuan Mo felt his heart aching uncontrollably. His heart-wrenching pain got increasingly severe like the seawater gushing out, which almost overwhelmed him completely.

He turned her body around. Upon seeing that tearful face, Xuanyuan Mo felt such a serious heartache that he could barely breathe.

He bent down to kiss her tears bit by bit as if to kiss all her tears away.

Xuanyuan Mo’s tenderness made Duanmu Xi burst into tears in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms like a kid who had been wronged.

Tears streamed out of her eyes like a fall as if she wanted to give vent to all her anxiety, uneasiness, fear, helplessness and sadness through her eyes.

The tears trickled down her cheeks, which seemed to drop on his heart rather than his chest, rendering his heart aching severely. He hugged her tightly as if to integrate her into his bones and blood.

The night was long. Xuanyuan Mo just cuddled Duanmu Xi tightly like this and stayed up the whole night long.

Under the moonlight, a man in black stood in the corner quietly, looking in the direction of Xuelan House. His dark green eyes exuded a bit of blessing and a shimmer of faint sadness.

Feng Xifan nearby saw the lonely figure under the moonlight, turned around and left.

When he appeared again, he had two pots of wine in his hands. He walked to Lian Zhengyu and threw a pot to the latter, “Let’s go drink the wine together.”

Lian Zhengyu looked at the pot in his hand and then raised his head to look in the direction of Xuelan House before turning to nod at Feng Xifan.

The two of them directly got on the roof rather than went elsewhere.

Feng Xifan looked at the moon in the sky and drank a mouthful of wine, “You like her.”

Lian Zhengyu didn’t respond to him but looked in the direction of Xuelan House and drank quietly.

Feng Xifan was not mad at Lian Zhengyu’s silence. He knew that Lian Zhengyu didn’t talk much. They had been schoolmates for several years but they still rarely talked with each other.

“I like her too,” Feng Xifan said whether Lian Zhengyu was listening or not.

Lian Zhengyu stiffened and still kept quiet.

“But I’ve given up.” Feng Xifan looked at the moon and his eyes became misty, “She is like the moon in the sky, pure, beautiful, aloof and graceful. However, she is too far away from me. I can never approach her even with a lifetime’s effort. I can only watch her from the distance so I give up.”

Then, Feng Xifan gulped a mouthful of wine.

Hearing that, Lian Zhengyu looked at the moon in the sky. It gradually became the look of Duanmu Xi. He subconsciously curled his lips.

“I won’t give up. I’ll guard her forever.”

His voice was so gentle. It seemed that he was talking with Feng Xifan and to himself.

Feng Xifan turned to look at Lian Zhengyu. Under the moonlight, Lian Zhengyu’s face looked so holy and beautiful.

At the moment, he admired Lian Zhengyu for the latter’s courage and stamina. Maybe only such a determined, persistent and innocent man was the most qualified to guard her.

At the wedding banquet in Prince Zhan’s mansion, Xuanyuan Hao was drinking one glass after another.

He wanted to get drunk but no matter how much he drank, he just didn’t feel drunk. He felt such a severe heartache that he could hardly breathe.

He stood up and walked outside staggeringly.

“Second Prince.”

The ministers at the same table as him saw the scene and immediately went forward to support him but they were pushed away by him, “Go away. Leave me alone.”

He staggered for several steps and then ran into a person.

He shook his dizzy head only to see it was a woman, who was beautiful and very familiar.

Mei Luo glimpsed the staggering man in front of her and said nothing. With a flick of her sleeve, she walked past him.

Looking at the woman who walked across him, Xuanyuan Hao came to his senses.

He turned around abruptly and looked at the woman in black. He narrowed his eyes maliciously. It was her…
