What?

Si Ning blinked as it became clear Qiu Bai was talking nonsense but he knew some people would have jumped on to the Prince offer just to become powerful and have everything they ever wanted but Si Ning as someone that came from the twenty-one century doesn't like the idea of war at all, in this life he was already rich so he wasn't greedy, all he needed was power to protect himself and those important to him yet he couldn't refuse Qiu Bai to avoid being seen as someone that had taken Xiu's side.

Whether he takes Xiu or Xilie's side, Si Ning knew the war would be unavoidable because he had been going on for long. If Qiu Bai goes back to his country and be crowned the Emperor then all hope to avoid war would be lost.

"I would have love for you to marry the Emperor of Xiu and then find a way to get rid of him but I want to see him suffer and I also consider you becoming my wife is the best option for you." Qiu Bai narrowed his eyes. "So what do you think General Si Ning?"

Si Ning wrapped his hands around his cup to take another sip of his tea when he felt the sudden urge to leave. "Excuse me Prince Qiu Bai I have to take my leave now because I have urgent matters to attend to." He lied and frowned before his voice wasn't audible enough for Qiu Bai to know he wasn't asking permission to leave because he was going to leave anyway.

To leave wasn't Si Ning's way of escaping before finalizing their discussion since he knew running away from his problems doesn't solve anything but he wanted to leave because he was feeling dizzy and him getting hot all over wasn't reducing even after taking tea to calm his nerves, he was only getting heated up and something tells him to quickly exit the room so he could have Ah Dai send a doctor to his room when he gets home. He was feeling so dizzy and couldn't think at the moment, what he thought was best for him was to leave.

Seeing that Qiu Bai didn't say a word which might have been his silent agreement for him to leave, not that Si Ning needed him to agree for him to leave before concluding their discussion.

Si Ning tried to stand up because he felt sudden fatigue but after successfully standing to his feet, he felt so dizzy that he staggered as he felt a sudden weakness on his legs and he couldn't prevent himself from falling with his mouth opened in shock when he found himself lying flat on the floor.

What?

Si Ning narrowed his eyes to see clearly but everything became hazy as he felt his temperature increasing, his breath becoming heavy that he had to open his mouth to breathe easier then it occurred to him something was wrong and he raised his hand to his cheek, he could feel his face heating up.

What was happening?

Si Ning was unable to think but all he wanted was to get out of the room because he thinks he had fallen sick, it was a sudden sickness making him feel the need to leave and get himself treated so he tried to stand again but his legs became numb and he fell on the floor.

This made him turned weakly to Qiu Bai to see his reaction maybe he was making a move to help him up but he was shocked to see that Qiu Bai made no move to help him and was just sipping his drink calmly and watching him like a lion watching his prey and this sent a sudden shiver all over Si Ning's body and he was horrified because it wasn't a shiver of fear but of excitement.

This was odd, so odd that he could feel a bit of pleasure just gazing at a predator behind the table making all the cells in his body come to life and that was when Si Ning's gaze landed on the teacup, he was the only one who drank it which means Qiu Bai might have added poison to it.

A sense of panic made Si Ning turn to the door and at that moment something collided with the door with a loud impact and Si Ning could swear he heard a groan and picked the sound of a person that might have called his name once but it was only once.

"Anybody out there? Jiang Ye... Ah Dai." Si Ning wanted to call in a loud audible voice instead his voice was low. "Jiang Ye! Ah Dai!" this time he yelled with all the strength left as he tried to raised his head that had become so heavy he lifted his weak hand and pulled the heavy hairpin away but it only felt as if it didn't have any impact as he felt like his head weigh a ton.

When Si Ning heard no reply made him started crawling towards the door worried about why Ah Dai wasn't running in to ask what he needed but his movement made a certain part of his lower body come in contact with the floor and it sent a sudden shiver and a bit of pleasure all over his body as the thing between his legs in the lower part of his body started to swell.

Oh No!

At that moment Si Ning felt all the energy in his body drained as he turned, his cheeks already tinted in red, his eyes narrowed as he tried to look at the man behind the desk and his eyes landed on his lips and surprisingly he felt like crawling over to attack him and Si Ning was more than horrified with his dirty thoughts yet he was still sane to know that he doesn't want that.

What was added to the tea?

"What?" Si Ning rubbed his weak legs together to get rid of the heat in his body and to cause some friction to lessen the swelling. "What did you do to me? Ahhhh..." It was then he realized he wasn't poison but he had taken tea that contained an aphrodisiac effect and he couldn't help but think he left the last time when things were getting heated between them which might be the reason Qiu Bai added an aphrodisiac to his drink.

"Something to make you want me." Qiu Bai said as he gripped his cup tightly.

It hurt Qiu Bai to see the man that laid helplessly on the floor with an extremely seductive appearance, his cheeks red, his eyes narrowed, his lips plump and his fair neck exposed due to the crawling and seeing this was making a certain thing on Qiu Bai's lower half starting to swell at a fast rate and he tried to hold back that the cup he was holding cracked then he growled and threw it at the wall, the cup shattered breaking into a million piece and with a sense of urgency, Qiu Bai jumped over the table to pin Si Ning down, holding the weak hands firmly and found himself staring down at the most beautiful enticing man he had ever seen and he couldn't wait to lick him all over and then he began to attack him with kisses all over his face, breathing hard as he captured Si Ning's lips.
