Chapter 225: On Endurance

er, something seemed to flash in her mind. She abruptly stood up and, without a word, walked to the catapult. She rummaged through the spare parts beside it, found a small horseshoe-shaped iron piece...He got it!

In that instant, Qin Luoyan's smile froze on her face. She almost didn't have to doubt that Fu Zimu definitely knew her identity! When Qin Xiner appeared, she knew that some things couldn't be hidden anymore, but she still didn't expect that Fu Zimu's actions would be so fast. In just half a day, he had actually found out her identity.

"Huh" Fu Zi Mo's smile held a hint of something unreadable, making Qin Luo Yan's heart race.

Finally, she admitted defeat. She sighed and nodded, "Yes, I'm not from a brothel. I am Qin Luoyan, the fourth daughter of General Qin Tiancheng from Yun City. My mother was once a maidservant in the General's mansion. One time, my father got drunk and took my mother's body, and that's how I was born. Although my aunt married into the family, she was just an ordinary maid with no background or connections. Even after marrying in, if she wasn't favored by her husband, being formally executed was a matter of time. So when I was very young, my mother died, and when I reached marriageable age, the mistress, the General's wife, betrothed me to an old man over fifty..."

Speaking of this, Qin Luo Yan chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Your Highness, do you think I could let them be so satisfied Sold and then I helped them count the money At that time, I just heard that you were passing through Yun Cheng and staying at the most luxurious inn in Yun Cheng. So I thought, my chance has come."

"You're quite bold, aren't you To actually dare climb onto this king's bed. Such a rebellious act suits you well." Fu Zimo smiled, though his expression gave nothing away.

Qin Luoyan rubbed her cheek against the palm of his hand, like a well-behaved kitten, "It's just that a desperate dog will jump over the wall. At that time, rumors outside were all about your romantic affairs, saying that you would accept any woman and wouldn't even recognize them after. I was at my wit's end then, so I could only take a gamble. Luckily, I won."

She took a long, slow breath. It had been a year or two, but she could still vividly remember that scene from back then, and it made her cheeks flush with warmth. From that moment on, their fates had miraculously become intertwined.

Fu Zi Mo's hand slid down her cheek, his movements not gentle as it caressed her neck, then reached inside the collar of her shirt.

The intense sensation flushed Qin Luoyan's face with a blush. She hadn't expected Fu Zimu to react like this after she revealed her background.

Could it be that men's brains are really filled with all that messy stuff from those action movies made in island nations

"I'm truly fortunate that it was I who appeared in Yun City. If it had been another noble, as long as that person could help you out of your predicament, wouldn't you have climbed into his bed without hesitation" Fu ZiMo's voice was somewhat cold, but the temperature of his hand was terrifyingly hot.

Qin Luoyan fell silent. She wanted to appease him, saying that if it were anyone else, she would never have climbed into bed. But in the end, she remained silent. Such an excuse wouldn't even convince herself, let alone someone as cunning as Fu Zimo.

However, it's okay. Sometimes men and women don't need too many words between them. They can just do.

The flames of desire ignited Qin Luoyan's body. By the time she reacted, Fu Zimu had already pressed his whole body down on hers.

When Mu He arrived at the door with a freshly-made medicinal concoction, he heard ambiguous voices coming from inside. Mu He was still a young man who had not yet been married. Hearing this, he immediately retreated. If it hadn't been for Jin Mu appearing in time to steady him, Dr. Chen’s bowl of carefully prepared medicine would have been spilled.

Just as Mu He was about to speak, Jin Mu made a silencing gesture towards her and pulled Mu He out of the room.

Out of the yard, Muhe was still a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but elbow Jinmu, "General Jinmu, as the king's personal guard, aren't you used to hearing this kind of thing in the corner Can you stand it"

Jin Mu's face also turned a little unnatural when asked this. "Can't bear it, don't have to bear it But on this side, I really admire the King, sometimes I can listen in this corner all night."

"No way…" Mukami was a bit disbelieving, but Kaneki said it with conviction and didn't seem to be lying.

Jin Mu slapped Mu He on the back of the head, "Believe it or not is up to you. Well, go quickly to the kitchen and warm the medicine. I'll call you when His Royal Highness and Miss Qin are finished."

Mù Hé nodded and carried the medicine away. Jīn Mù saw him go far, and was about to turn back to guard the courtyard, but a gleam in his peripheral vision caught sight of a petite figure behind the distant rockery. A sneer curled at the corner of his mouth, and he quickened his pace toward the courtyard. With a mischievous intent, Jīn Mù deliberately forgot to close the door, allowing faint, suggestive sounds to leak out from inside.

Behind the rockery, Yun Xiaoying's face had turned as white as a sheet. Though she was innocent, she still knew the implication of those ambiguous sounds. She hated it, hated it with all her might, gripping the rockery so hard that she almost crushed the stones.

Why, why would Fu Zimu like this wanton woman! That woman, how could she be so shameless to shout so loudly! Simply, simply……

Yun Xiaoying had no idea how to describe her feelings. She stood behind the artificial hill, listening to the sounds coming from the courtyard. She remained there for a whole hour until the sounds in the courtyard gradually faded and the candlelight inside the room completely extinguished. Only then did she reluctantly turn and leave.

Back in her room, Yun Xiaoxue didn't light candles. Instead, she walked numbly to the corner of the room and took a delicate box from the cabinet. She held the box on her bed, her expression constantly changing: sometimes dazed, sometimes vicious, until finally there was only utter distortion left.

When dawn broke, Yun Xiaoying took out the contents of the box. It turned out to be a white jade bottle. She poured out one pill from the white jade bottle and swallowed it without hesitation.

After finishing all of this, she had her maid prepare some pastries, packed them into a food box, and carrying the food box, she walked towards Fu Zimo's courtyard.

"Yun Girl, the King hasn't gotten up yet. Perhaps you could come back later" Jin Mu stopped Yun Xiaoqing at the door.

Yun Xiaoxue, however, did not get angry. She had always been polite to the guards close to Fu Zimu, "Since Zimu hasn't gotten up yet, I'll just wait in the courtyard. General Jinmu, you wouldn't even let me wait, would you After all, I'm not an ordinary person to Zimu, you can't treat me like a servant and dismiss me, right"

Jin Mu hesitated for a moment, glanced back at Qin Luo Yan's house with tightly shut windows and doors, then said again: "Then you can only wait in the courtyard, but please don't disturb the King's rest."
