Chapter 105: Your Poison Isn’t Cleared?

Seeing his younger sister come out, Jiang Jiuche quickly stepped forward and asked, “Chuer, how are you? Are you still feeling unwell?”

“I’m fine, Brother, don’t worry. After taking the medicine, the poison has been neutralized.” Jiang Jiuchu was a little embarrassed. Having been affected by that kind of drug, she found it difficult to talk about.

Shí Qingya stepped forward and brushed a stray hair from Jiang Jiuchu’s temple. “It’s good that you’re alright. Quickly go back to the estate with Seventh Brother and get some rest.”

“Alright, you’re carrying a child, Sister-in-law, so you should go back with Brother and rest too!”

After Jiang Jiuchu finished speaking, she and Shí Yan bid farewell to the Empress Dowager and prepared to turn and leave, but as she turned, she saw Shí Xiu standing to the side.

She immediately walked up to Shí Xiu, bowed, and said, “Thank you very much for leading the way and providing the medicine today, Fifth Prince. Another day…”

“Another day, this Prince will prepare generous gifts and send them to the Rui Prince’s estate.” Before Jiang Jiuchu could finish speaking, Shí Yan, who had walked over, cut her off.

Shí Xiu glanced at Shí Yan’s indifferent eyes and smiled gently at Jiang Jiuchu, “It was just a small effort, Miss Jiang doesn’t need to take it to heart.”

“Fifth Brother should change his address. According to the rules, he should call her ‘Sister-in-law,’ or if he doesn’t want to call her ‘Sister-in-law,’ he should call her ‘Seventh Royal Consort.’ Calling her ‘Miss Jiang’ is really inappropriate, don’t you think, Fifth Brother?”

“Seventh Brother is right, it was Fifth Brother’s oversight.” Shí Xiu seemed unwilling to say more to Shí Yan. He immediately walked towards the Empress Dowager, bowed in farewell, and then strode away.

Shí Yan looked at Shí Xiu’s departing back, a hint of mockery appearing at the corner of his lips. He turned his head towards Jiang Jiuchu and said, “Let’s go!”

Hearing this, Jiang Jiuchu quickly followed behind Shí Yan. However, as soon as she stepped out of the Cining Palace gate, she leaned against the palace wall, panting as she looked at Shí Yan in front of her.

Shí Yan didn’t hear the sound of footsteps following behind him, so he turned back and saw Jiang Jiuchu looking unwell and weak. He thought, does this aphrodisiac have such a strong aftereffect?

He pursed his lips, walked back to Jiang Jiuchu, and scooped her up into his arms.

“Ah! Ouch, ouch, ouch.” The arm Shí Yan used to lift her just happened to press against the spot on the outside of Jiang Jiuchu’s thigh where she had been pricked with a needle, causing her so much pain that she quickly reached out to pry Shí Yan’s hand away.

Shí Yan’s body tensed when he heard Jiang Jiuchu cry out. He quickly moved his hand down a little, looked questioningly at the spot he had just pressed, and asked urgently, “What’s wrong?”

“N-nothing, I just accidentally bumped it there, it’s a little painful.” The thin layer of sweat on Jiang Jiuchu’s forehead made Shí Yan feel that it wasn’t as simple as a bump. He didn’t ask further, and carried her forward quickly.

Being held by Shí Yan like this, the desire in Jiang Jiuchu’s heart was like a spark, constantly stirring her willpower.

She wanted to get down, but her arms wouldn’t listen and were tightly wrapped around Shí Yan’s neck, not wanting to let go at all.

She slightly raised her eyes, looked at the man’s smooth and handsome jawline, and secretly swallowed her saliva.

She didn’t know if it was because the residual poison hadn’t dissipated, but at this moment, she felt that this man was devastatingly handsome, and the scent on his body was also devastatingly good.

She tightened her arms around the man again and closed her eyes, leaning against his chest.

She tried hard to suppress the restless hands and the urge to raise her head and kiss him.

Shí Yan lowered his head and looked at the well-behaved woman in his arms, feeling her closeness, the corner of his eye lifted in a gentle curve.

He used his inner strength, and his footsteps quickly took him out of the palace gate.

In the carriage, when Shí Yan put Jiang Jiuchu down, she silently recited the Sutra of Tranquility countless times before releasing Shí Yan with a normal expression.

After she sat down, she quickly turned her face away from him and looked out of the carriage window, secretly closing her eyes to suppress the desire in her heart.

She felt that as long as she didn’t get close to Shí Yan, the remaining desire in her body wouldn’t be able to make big waves.

Shí Yan looked at Jiang Jiuchu, his eyes turning cold. It seemed that every time she rode in the carriage with him, she would look out of the window like this.

He couldn’t help but speak in a cold voice: “What? Now that the poison is neutralized, you’re turning your back on me?”

Hearing this, Jiang Jiuchu was stunned. She turned her head to look at Shí Yan in confusion, wondering, how was she turning her back on him?

Shí Yan leaned against the carriage wall, leisurely looking at Jiang Jiuchu’s confused face, and explained lightly, “This Prince rushed over in a hurry to save you, and this is your attitude?”

“I…” Jiang Jiuchu was still a little confused. What was her attitude? She was still feeling uncomfortable! Couldn’t this guy stop beating around the bush?

She thought for a moment and then thanked Shí Yan, “Thank you for rushing over today, Your Highness. I will remember your kindness.”

After she finished speaking, she planned to continue turning to look out the window, thinking that Shí Xiu had said one hour. From the time she took the medicine until now, it didn’t seem to be half an hour yet. Alas! Why was this aphrodisiac so difficult to neutralize?

Seeing that she had said a few nice words and was about to look out of the window again, Shí Yan’s handsome eyes deepened. He reached out and pulled her in front of him, leaned close to her, and pressed her in a low voice, “It’s useless to just remember it in your heart. How do you plan to repay me? Hmm?”

Jiang Jiuchu looked in startled at the magnified handsome face in front of her. In an instant, his aura was constantly drilling into her nose.

Her chest was pounding violently, and the small hands in her sleeves clenched into fists.

Shí Yan didn’t notice anything unusual, only thinking that she was nervous. He continued, “Also, how do you plan to compensate this Prince for the desire you stirred up in me today?”

Hearing this, Jiang Jiuchu couldn’t bear the instinct of her body any longer. She aimed at the thin lips that were opening and closing in front of her and kissed them directly.

Shí Yan’s pupils shook. He seemed to have not expected that this woman would be so cooperative.

His eyes darkened, and without any response, he only lowered his eyes to look at the woman who had taken the initiative to kiss him. He saw that her eyes were slightly closed, and her curled and thick eyelashes covered them, making him unable to see the expression in her eyes.

The cool lips seemed to make Jiang Jiuchu very satisfied. She raised her hands and directly hooked them around Shí Yan’s neck, slowly licking them.

But it seemed that this was not enough. She wanted more, and subconsciously learned from the kiss in her memory, wanting to drill inside, trying to relieve the increasingly strong desire in her heart.

Shí Yan’s large hand on Jiang Jiuchu’s waist tightened slightly, and then he opened his lips slightly in cooperation.

Seeing that there was a breakthrough, Jiang Jiuchu couldn’t wait to drill in, looking for more comfort.

Shí Yan’s heart seemed to burst out of his chest, and he couldn’t bear it any longer. He grabbed Jiang Jiuchu’s neck with one hand and responded to her domineeringly.

A low moan overflowed from Jiang Jiuchu’s mouth. In a daze, she directly reached out and tugged at the man’s lapels.

Shí Yan felt a chill in his chest, and his eyes suddenly opened. As if realizing that something was wrong, he immediately grabbed Jiang Jiuchu’s shoulders with both hands and pulled her away from him.

Jiang Jiuchu was suddenly pushed away, her eyes widened instantly, full of a hazy color of unsatisfied desire.

Ignoring the rosy and crystal-clear lips that he had kissed, Shí Yan stared straight into her eyes and asked in a deep voice, “Your poison isn’t cleared?”

The cold and heavy voice instantly pulled back a trace of Jiang Jiuchu’s sanity, causing her eyes to gradually clear.

Realizing her loss of control, a hint of fear floated on Jiang Jiuchu’s face.

Swallowing her saliva, she looked like she had done something wrong and said in a soft voice, “Fifth Prince said that it would take an hour for the medicine to be completely cleared. Just…just…I’m sorry.”
