Free Web NovelChapter 630: Chapter 345: Stealing Heaven and Changing Day, the Star-picking Bureau Emerges. Lady’s Deceit Brings Severe Punishment
Li Xian took the lake water. He exhaled a clear breath, turning the water clear and clean, then placed it on the charcoal fire to boil. As the water gradually boiled, Li Xian added seasonings, and instantly a fragrant aroma filled the air.
Flying Dragon City is a notable town where food is plentiful, with various dishes of meat and flavors. Li Xian bought donkey meat, venison, raccoon meat, beef... all plentiful and sufficient, along with many small street snacks, iced candied fruit, snowy crispy cakes... and so on.
With all matters arranged, he placed two small cushions by the table. Li Xian carefully laid Wen Caishang down from the couch and helped her remove a jade nut from her mouth. Wen Caishang’s pretty face reddened, and she managed to remove the remaining one herself, noticing it was soaked with saliva, wondering when she had lost composure like this. Utterly embarrassed and awkward, she felt extremely ashamed.
Li Xian wiped the jade nut clean and placed it by the table. Wen Caishang’s gaze lingered on the jade nut, a once dull plaything now moistened by her mouth and tongue for quite a while. She gradually calmed down, thinking to herself, "I, Wen Caishang, have been making waves for years, yet I’ve been tricked by a young brat. Not only falling into his trap but also being captured by him. Such an appearance being seen by him is truly damaging to my reputation. Hmph, I cannot let you enjoy this victory."
She spoke softly, "Mr. Li La, your calculations are deep, yet there’s one thing you missed." Li Xian frowned, "What would that be?"
Wen Caishang reprimanded, "You used the Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword against me. You’re clever, adept at using your strengths to exploit the enemy’s weaknesses. I was careless for a moment and subdued by you. But you overlooked that I cultivate the ’Silkworm Robe Mismatched Jade Technique.’ Your Green Silkworm Rope binding me inadvertently aids my cultivation. My Silkworm Robe Mismatched Jade Technique is many times stronger than the Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword, and that Yin Yang Sword Momentum has already been dispersed."
Li Xian spoke in a deep voice, "Then why didn’t the lady break free?" Wen Caishang replied softly, "Just to give you one last chance, Mr. Li. If you help me now, I still won’t blame you." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"Dear Mr. Li, if you can’t grasp this last chance, hmph!" Wen Caishang’s expression suddenly turned cold as she said, "Then don’t blame me for being unkind to you!"
Li Xian, trembling, asked, "Truly... truly? Will the lady truly forgive me? I did such a wrong thing to the lady." Wen Caishang laughed, "Though I won’t blame you, I still have to punish you."
Li Xian looked conflicted and said, "I’ll now help the lady out of trouble. If the lady wants to punish, I’ll... I’ll accept it." Wen Caishang laughed, "That’s more obedient."
Li Xian pretended to help relieve her. Suddenly changing direction, he turned and lightly tickled her sole. Wen Caishang was startled, bursting into silver bell-like laughter, then forcibly regained her composure and scolded, "What are you doing? If you continue to fool around like this, I won’t give you another chance."
Li Xian apologized, "Sorry, sorry, my hand shook, Lady, please don’t blame me. I’ll help you out now." Wen Caishang took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I’ll forgive you this time. Quickly help me out, and I’ll lighten your punishment."
Li Xian said, "Of course, of course." Pretending to help but then changed direction again, tickling the sole once more. Wen Caishang couldn’t stop laughing, struggling to endure, her silvery teeth clenched, weakly saying, "This time... was your hand shaking too?!"
Li Xian nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it was my hand shaking." Wen Caishang barely maintained her authority and said, "I’ll tolerate it one last time, don’t deceive yourself!"
Li Xian patted his chest and said, "This time I promise not to shake my hand, put your mind at ease, Lady." He spoke timidly, yet his heart was full of mischief. He not only didn’t help relieve her but tied it a bit tighter, repeatedly teasing her foot with palm wind. Initially somewhat disguised, later outrightly not pretending.
Wen Caishang had long realized his scheme was broken but barely maintained her dignity. Her soles were repeatedly attacked, aware of Li Xian’s stealthy mischief. This time her brow furrowed tightly, refusing to let out any laughter. But the struggle was only temporary; unable to endure for long, she still laughed out loud, as if tortured. Her heart cried in vain, only thinking how deceitful Li Xian was, his usual trickery not only useless but calling forth additional mischief. At this moment, face mattered little, repeatedly pleading to stop.
Li Xian, full of mischief, solemnly said, "Lady, a plea for mercy should look like a plea for mercy. You fooled me so badly. If you don’t sincerely beg for mercy, it’ll be my turn to punish you." Wen Caishang bit her red lip and had to shyly exclaim, "Good hero, good hero, Cai Shang knows her mistake, shouldn’t have deceived you, spare me."
