"You like to toy with girls that much?" Luo Qing Luan nearly could no longer stand it as her entire body abruptly stopped moving. Motionless, her voice even carried a trace of a sob.

Inside the dim bedroom, her hands firmly grasped by Nalan Ye, without further resistance nor pulling back, also without moving, just allowing him to hold her like that.

Her pair of clear and bright eyes watched Nalan Ye as her small body faintly shuddered. Under the moonlight, he seemed to be able to see something accumulating in her eyes, as if she's tearing up.

"I merely took, merely took your jade piece......"

She spoke in between broken breaths, voice very soft, very lightly, brimming with intense fear and alarm. She had not even finished one sentence before she already humbly sobbed spasmodically. "Why do you want to bully me? Wu hoo......if someone were to see you, see you in my bedroom......how can I live in the future......boo wu hoo......Nalan Ye, have I offended you in some way? Boo hoo wu......"

A young girl's distress and shame was totally taken in by Nalan Ye. Luo Qing Luan's delicate and pretty little face was already covered with tears, making him abruptly change his thought process.

His attitudes of taking liberties with her and teasing her was immediately eliminated unimaginably far away by her lovely and pitiful appearance. So much so that he even suddenly felt a kind of strange sensation. Him bullying a girl like her in that way seemed as if it was truly somewhat excessive?

She did have some tricks up her sleeve, but they were merely enough to deal with other girls like her, that's all. Just like last time, when he was careless, and she hit him. Wasn't it like a cat scratch only, without injuring him in the slightest?

Truly when compared to a big man like him, and also when he's on guard, Luo Qing Luan was but a little lass after all, simply without any ability to injure him.

Unconsciously, his hands loosened. Nalan Ye felt increasingly guilty and was silent for a moment before he spoke, "Forget it."

Feeling a bit sorry towards her, but his identity dictated that saying something like 'sorry' to a little girl was somewhat difficult to do in the end. His complacency from before had already dimmed down and had been supplanted, so he no longer intended to take liberties with Luo Qing Luan as he said, "I've already taken back the jade. I'm giving you ten thousand taels. I'm leaving."

Nalan Ye took out a pile of banknotes from his sleeve pocket and placed them in front of Luo Qing Luan, then he took another look before finally standing up and leaving.

"Nalan Ye......"

Unexpectedly, Luo Qing Luan's soft voice sounded behind him, as if wanting him to wait a moment.

Could it be that she still wanted to say something? Nalan Ye stood and was going to turn his head around to see what she had to say when suddenly, he felt a warning flash through his mind, following which his back seemed as if it had been pricked. When he reacted, it was already too late.

"Humph humph humph humph......"

The originally sobbing voice behind him at this moment was already brimming with complacency as it laughed. Nalan Ye felt horrible. He's been fooled again! He couldn't help but laugh bitterly, wishing that he could hit himself.

He only saw Luo Qing Luan's entire body covered in white underclothes standing up extending her hand towards Nalan Ye's shoulders then pushed. With a bit of force, the latter's straight and stiff body fell down directly on the bed. Her appearance was of someone whose crafty scheme prevailed. Where would there be tears on her face? She was grinning and chuckling as she looked at Nalan Ye.

"Been duped, right? Careless, right?"

Luo Qing Luan harrumphed then grabbed his long hair and pulled it. "Loathsome man, you dared to play tricks on me, want to die?"

Seeing Nalan Ye's body move, as if he was going to resist, she immediately moved like the wind and quickly stuck a few more needles into his body before speaking. "Give it up. Last time I used the Blackout Powder against you, but you were surprisingly drug resistant. I wasn't able to make you lose consciousness. This time, I changed to using acupuncture. Let's see if you can still move?"

So it's acupuncture? Only now did Nalan Ye understand what he was pricked with.

Merely, he truly couldn't tell that this little lass actually was such an expert in medicine?

"Nalan Ye, you bullied me so much previously. Now that you've fallen into my hands, tell me......how should I deal with you?" Sizing up the man on the bed for a moment, Luo Qing Luan earnestly pondered how she should make her move following this.

Nalan Ye raised his lips slightly, unexpectedly not minding his condition at all. "What, Miss Luo, is it possible that you also want to push me into the pond?"

He didn't feel at all that she would have such nerves.

"Stop bringing up this matter!"

Suddenly feeling that she had been threatened, Luo Qing Luan scowled at him. Extending her hand, she wanted to hit him.

But before her hand extended, her gaze fell upon the handsome face in front of her and couldn't help but stay her hand.

The moonlight faintly came through the open window, providing a trace of illumination in the little room. He looked at her calmly under that light, completely without the awareness of a fish or pig that was on the verge of getting slaughtered. On the contrary, there was even a faintly smiling expression as he watched her.

What's he smiling for? Could it be that he truly thought she wouldn't do anything to him?

Luo Qing Luan was filled with hate, but seeing Nalan Ye's manner of not resisting in the slightest, his face suffused by moonlight looking so handsome and outstandingly picturesque, her intent to truly sort him out weakened again.

Such a good-looking man was truly a bit pleasing to the eyes.

Suddenly, a devilish playful urge rose up spontaneously. Luo Qing Luan laughed mischievously, her hand already stroking Nalan Ye's face. "Nalan Ye, actually, your looks are also not bad."

Nalan Ye was slightly stumped for words, what did she mean?

Who would have thought, Luo Qing Luan's next sentence nearly made him die of anger. "Just based on your looks, if you were to be the main attraction at Heavenly Dream Tower, business will definitely flourish, profits pouring in."

After she finished speaking, her hands already rose up Nalan Ye's face. From his eyebrows, she stroked the high and straight bridge of his nose, then slid down to his lips, lingering there, before stroking him again. She looked as if she truly considered him to be the most lowly boy toy.

"Nalan Ye, tell me, if I were to take you to bed tonight, should I pay you one tael or two taels of silver?" Heh heh hee hee......Luo Qing Luan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
