The moment Xuan Ying returned, he dashed immediately to her room in the middle of the night.
Feng Lingxue’s heart tightened as she raised her eyes and looked at the man by the door. He had already handed over his coat to the maid when he came back and now he was wearing a black V-neck T-shirt with a black bullet-proof vest on the outside. The form-fitting bullet-proof vest accentuated his perfectly trim figure.
His wispy fringe covered his black eyes and he stood by the door, staring at her quietly.
Feng Lingxue wrapped her arms around herself subconsciously and stepped backwards.
The man entered and kicked the door closed.
As the man approached her, his black army boots clicked against the floor and his right palm was positioned on his black leather belt around his waist.
Feng Lingxue could see the bloodstains on his thumb. Judging from him he reeked of acrid blood and murderous rage, he must have rushed back from the battlefield in Jing Zhou. It was enough to make one quiver in fear.
He arrived at the bed and his legs were against the ledge of the bed. He did not say a word at all, and instead, he began to remove his belt and his trousers.
It was obvious what he intended to do.
He had been battling enemies over the past three days and he had missed women terribly. And so he had rushed to her room to satiate his physical urges.
Feng Lingxue was unwilling to accede to his desires. When she thought about how he had slept with that Miss Yuyu, she felt terrible.
There were so many beautiful women here for him to choose from.
Why would he come to this lowly servants’ quarters and enter her room in the middle of the night?
Feng Lingxue got up, wanting to escape.
But she did not manage to do so. At the speed of lightning, the man bent down, grasped her slender arm and hurled her onto the bed.
“Don’t touch me! Let go!” She hissed as she struggled vehemently against him.
Xuan Ying pinned her down beneath him effortlessly and held her hand above her head with one hand while his other hand reached the collar of her nightgown. With one smooth motion, he tore her nightgown off entirely.
Feng Lingxue’s dark eyes immediately narrowed. She rose and bit down hard on his neck. The faint metallic taste of blood spread in her mouth. She had bitten him so hard she drew blood.
A grunt left his lips and Xuan Ying’s brows knitted in pain from her bite. His black eyes rolled and he felt his blood throbbing in his veins.
Damn, he loved it when she was ferocious like that.
A woman who was unwilling to be submissive would incite a man’s desire to dominate over her.
He had not bothered to even look at her when she had committed the mistake. There were so many women around him. Did she really think that he was smitten over her?
But the more stubborn she was, the more he would not bother about her, and she was unwilling to concede defeat either.
Where did her ability to seduce men in Ah Jiao’s room disappear to? She was forever a chaste and virtuous lady at his place.
Did she want him to put her on a pedestal?
Xuan Ying flung his hand and her body fell back onto the cold and hard wooden bed frame.
Bang! Her forehead hit against the door and a line of blood streamed down from her forehead. The blood spread down to the sides of her face. She had slimmed down considerably these few days and she was a pitiful sight.
After knocking her head, Feng Lingxue felt weak and dizzy but she did not shut her eyes. Instead, she glared coldly at the man.
“You can take my body, but you will never win my heart. In my eyes, you are only a rapist!”
Xuan Ying curved his lips. “Don’t provoke me. My body is on fire now. If you dare to provoke me again, I will make sure that you kneel down and beg me for mercy… F*ck!”
With that, he grasped her shoulders and turned her around, with her back facing him.
He draped the pillowcase over her head so that he would not see her and growled, “Wretch.”
…
One hour later.
The man had finally let go of her body and Feng Lingxue’s lower lip was bruised from her biting down on it too hard.
That one hour felt as long as being in a prison. His humiliating treatment of her had torn her heart into two pieces. The pillowcase on her head fell down and Feng Lingxue lay on the bed, looking at the man.
Xuan Ying took out a few pieces of tissue paper to wipe himself before pulling up his trousers. There were sweat droplets on his bronze skin and the fringe on his forehead had become damp. His uninhibited sexiness and male dominance were sufficient to make one blush.
As he was naked at the top, she could see the wound on his body.
He was injured.
She could not tell if the wound on the left side of his chest was a stab wound or a bullet wound as it was bandaged. The vigorous and intense movements just now had caused blood to seep out from the wound, staining the white bandage.
He did not seem bothered at all.
Not only that, but there were also many other scars on his body. Scars were everywhere on his shoulders, back, torso… These three years, he had used his life and blood to obtain whatever he had now.
The scars crisscrossed on his body, weaving a story of hardship and suffering that nobody else ever knew about.
Feng Lingxue suddenly felt a twinge of hurt in her heart. Extreme loathing filled her towards the man who had violated her just now. But at the same time, she felt that he was very lonely.
At this moment, her vision went dark as Xuan Ying turned around, hunched his back and stretched his hand out to collect his belt.
His belt had landed beside her. When he bent his body, both of their faces got closer. Feng Lingxue slowly raised her hand and touched his scars.
In the next second, her slender wrist was grasped by him and her eyes met his cold, bloodshot eyes. “What, you haven’t had enough?”
Feng Lingxue lowered her lashes, wanting to retract her arm.
Xuan Ying looked at her. She did not seem to have eaten much these years and she had slimmed down much, but her frame was small, if he had used more strength, he could break her easily.
Such a beautiful woman made one tempted to ravage and exploit her sexually. But her face was as white as a sheet of paper. When she was reprimanded or hit, even if she did not cry out from the pain, she made one desire to embrace her and dote on her.
Xuan Ying’s throat bobbed and his cold gaze gradually became scorching hot.
Although he did not say a word, Feng Lingxue already knew that he wanted her a second time. His breathing became ragged and she immediately stepped backwards.
But Xuan Ying flung his hand and hurled her aside. “I’ll see how much longer you can be so obstinate!”
Turning around, he left immediately.
…
Half an hour later. Mo Mo opened the door and entered.
“Miss Feng, please take this medicine.”
It was a bowl of contraceptive medicine.
Feng Lingxue moved and stretched her hand out to take it, but in the next second, she instantly furrowed her pretty brows as she felt excruciating pain at the bottom.
She had been ripped apart.
Mo Mo was experienced in such matters and she understood immediately. She spoke with a face devoid of any expression. “Miss Feng, you are creating trouble for yourself. Young Master is the son of the South Duke and the legendary Silver Mask King. So many beauties are coveting his attention. Why do you have to be so obstinate?
“I think Young Master has been obsessed with your body recently, from the way he went to your room straight after returning home at night. If it were another lady, she would surely be overjoyed at the Young Master’s attention, but you remain so frigid and unresponsive. Any man would be unhappy at that… For your own sake, you should take the initiative to placate and please Young Master.”
Not saying anything, Feng Lingxue only took the bowl and downed the medicine.
She did not speak a word nor nod her head.
Mo Mo glanced at Feng Lingxue again. “Miss Feng, maintaining your pride and dignity is useless in such an authoritarian place like this. Young Master is the only person you can depend on now. If you continue to be like this, you will only suffer.”
After Mo Mo left, Feng Lingxue sat on the bed alone. She clutched the small stone tightly in her palm and gently closed her eyes.
…
The next day.
Feng Lingxue was doing housekeeping chores in the living room when Yuyu walked over with a few beauties. “Someone, come and capture this wretched maid!”
Two maids ran over and pressed down hard on Feng Lingxue’s shoulders, making her kneel on the floor.
Yuyu sat on the sofa and threw a bangle onto the carpet. “Wretched maid, this was found from your room. How did my bangle end up in your room? You little thief!”
Feng Lingxue eyed the bangle and looked at Yuyu coldly. “If you want to accuse me of something, you should find a more expensive bangle. This bangle looks so cheap!”
“You!”
Yuyu was so furious her mouth was contorted in rage. She had found out this morning that Young Master had returned home last night and gone straight to Feng Lingxue’s room. Mo Mo had even sent a bowl of contraceptive medicine afterwards.
It was obvious that Young Master had spent the night with her.
After that, Young Master had left, presumably to the army barracks.
The news had spread like wildfire that the bandits in Jing Zhou were rampant, but the Silver Mask King managed to destroy the hideouts of these bandits in a couple of days. He was really impressively powerful and capable.
Young Master was so busy, and yet he still returned to bed this Feng Lingxue. How could Yuyu not be jealous? This woman was a threat and Yuyu and the other beauties had viewed Feng Lingxue as their enemy.
Soon after, Yuyu smiled. “Feng Lingxue, I hear that you used to be the most popular seductress in Ah Jiao’s room. Is that true?”
“Surely not, Yuyu? She’s a prostitute?”
“Oh God, does she have any sickness? Why not let the maids take off her clothes to examine her?”
All the other beauties had evil intentions.
Yuyu shot a glance at the two maids beside her. “Both of you take off Feng Lingxue’s clothes now. We are going to help Young Master check if she has any infectious diseases.”
The two maids nodded solicitously. “Yes, Miss Yuyu.”
They walked ahead and prepared to rip off Feng Lingxue’s clothes.
Feng Lingxue’s gaze turned as cold as ice. Before the two maids could do anything to her, a golden hairpin appeared in her hand and she used it to stab the maids.
“Ah!”
The maids let out pitiful cries as their hands bled. Yuyu and the other beauties were stunned as they had not imagined that Feng Lingxue would have a weapon.
This Feng Lingxue was not easy to deal with!
But she was prepared.
Yuyu stood up immediately and kept a distance from Feng Lingxue. “Feng Lingxue, why don’t you take a look at what this is?”
Feng Lingxue looked up to see her small stone in Yuyu’s hand.
Her stone!
When was it taken away by Yuyu?
Feng Lingxue froze and nearly forgot to breathe. “Return the stone to me!”
