Chapter 292 Such an outrageous thing has happened in the world.
"How will you compensate me?" Jun Ce chuckled softly. "Rong'er is so clever, surely she knows what a one-for-one exchange means?"
【What's the meaning? 】
Zhai Rongyu was somewhat bewildered, her eyes misty.
Jun Ce raised his thumb and rubbed her lips, his voice hoarse, "It's only fair that you experience what it's like to be on edge."
Before she could finish speaking, two jade-like fingers plunged into her mouth.
Tumbling and churning, the night instantly changed its tone.
Zhai Rongyu's eyes widened.
She tried to push him away by clinging to his wrist, but it was like a floating weed clinging to a tree, unshakable. Her clear consciousness gradually shattered as his fingertips danced across the water, and she could only sink deeper and deeper into the ebb and flow of the tide.
Jun Ce still felt it wasn't enough, so with his other free hand he even cruelly lifted her short jacket, climbed up her warm skin, and slowly heated and burned her until her whole body was covered in a thin powder.
He pulled her out, then threw her back into the even more violent waves.
With her eyes half-closed, Zhai Rongyu caught a glimpse of his eyes, which were deeper than the night, as if he were grasping at the only sliver of moonlight in a swaying boat.
Her mind was completely muddled.
Too much.
Even though he was lying beneath her, somehow he became the helmsman, steering her small boat away from the shore of clarity, throwing her into an unfamiliar whirlpool without hesitation.
Jun Ce spent two hours making her understand what it meant to be on tenterhooks, exchanging one for one.
In the end, Zhai Rongyu collapsed on the couch, like a fish whose strength had been drained, stranded on the beach, panting, her almond-shaped eyes filled with tears.
"Does Rong'er still have the strength to steal the tiger tally?"
Jun Ce lay beside her, propping himself up on his arm, and lazily asked a question while stroking her hair.
She turned her head away and caught the mischievous smile in his eyes.
"You...you did it on purpose!"
"I still have the energy to curse. It seems I haven't tried hard enough."
“However…” Jun Ce raised an eyebrow, lazily raising his hand and hovering it in front of her, “Rong’er is fearless, how come she can’t even handle my hands?”
Zhai Rongyu stared at the large, well-defined hand in front of her, her face flushed red. Suo Xin closed his eyes, refusing to look at her, but his long, curled eyelashes fluttered incessantly like butterfly wings.
Seeing her quail-like appearance, Jun Ce couldn't help but let out a muffled laugh.
His desire to tease her grew stronger.
He leaned down, brought his voice close to her ear, and whispered the last tender words.
"So useless, how will we consummate our marriage in the future?"
Zhai Rongyu suddenly opened her eyes, glared at him angrily, and reached out to punch him, but he caught her with his palm.
Oh no, the little wildcat is angry.
Jun Ce suppressed the smile in his eyes, grabbed her wrist with his other hand, and kissed her fingertips.
"I was wrong."
"You shouldn't have bullied Rong'er."
They readily admitted their mistakes, but showed no genuine remorse. They even deliberately emphasized the word "bullying," making people feel inexplicably ashamed.
Thin lips pressed against slender fingers.
The heat from her fingertips went straight to her face, and Zhai Rongyu, utterly defeated again, stammered, "You...you stop kissing me..."
Jun Ce's lips curved slightly. "You forgive me?"
The girl gave a soft "hmm," then turned her head away, her cheeks flushed, and muttered, "You lecher."

late at night.
Moonlight pierced through the clouds, casting dappled shadows among the treetops.
Zhai Rongyu lay on the eaves of the Fifth Prince's mansion, secretly grumbling to herself.
How can having sex with Ah Xu restore my mental strength?
[And it never even got done!]
Is this reasonable?
She was completely dumbfounded when she saw the display on the back of the Boundless Divine Turtle.
It actually went up by 10%.
Such an outrageous thing has happened in the world.
Perhaps what Master meant when he said that getting close to him could improve one's luck was indeed what it literally meant.
They were indeed standing quite close tonight...
If she hadn't made an excuse to take a bath, she probably wouldn't have been able to escape by now.
Zhai Rong shook her head and climbed up from the eaves.
The night breeze dispelled the heat from her body, and the girl quickly returned to normal.
She gently moved the tile aside and listened to the conversation coming from below.
Su Luoyin: "Fifth Master, the Tiger Tally is now in our hands. We can mobilize our troops tonight and besiege the capital!"
Jun Jingheng's peach blossom eyes were half-open and half-closed, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
His gaze slowly focused on the ground not far away, where there were several clusters of moonlight casting scattered shadows, a chaotic mix of nighttime light.
He suddenly waved his hand, interrupting Su Luoyin.
"Not urgent."
Su Luoyin thought that Jun Jingheng was not yet determined to rebel, so she hurriedly advised, "Fifth Master, the arrow is on the bowstring now, and we have no choice but to release it!"
"The Regent has been holding onto that evidence for who knows how long. What if he already reported it to the Emperor? Then we..."
Jun Jingheng smiled coldly, "If that evidence had fallen into Father Emperor's hands, he would have punished me long ago."
He knew better than anyone what kind of person his father was.
He could even kill the woman he loved most.
He used to dote on Jun Yiqing so much, yet he demoted her so easily, exiling her to a harsh and desolate place like Ganliao City. What difference was there between that and becoming a commoner?
His importance in his father's heart was nowhere near that of Jun Yiqing.
Therefore, he concluded that if his father truly had evidence of his treason, he would not spare his life.
Su Luoyin took a step forward, still somewhat anxious.
"Even if the evidence hasn't reached His Majesty's hands yet, the Regent may not necessarily trust it."
"If we wait any longer and they find a way to deal with us, then..."
"Uncle Wang values the people and will not stand idly by."
"Besides, I have prepared an escape route, so I am not afraid of him changing his mind."
Jun Jingheng took out the tiger tally from his sleeve, played with it between his fingertips, and his eyes consciously wandered across the ground.
Zhai Rongyu's eyes lit up as she stared intently at the tiger tally in his hand.
"You can go out now," Jun Jingheng suddenly said.
"Fifth Master..." Su Luoyin wanted to say something more.
"go out."
"Yes."
Su Luoyin took a deep breath and walked out of the room with a face full of resentment.
The door was slightly ajar.
Zhai Rongyu rolled her eyes, affixed an invisibility talisman, and landed directly in Jun Jingheng's room.
He leaned back in his chair, looking down as he turned the tiger tally in his hand.
Zhai Rong made a hand seal, and a talisman silently floated behind Jun Jingheng.
He suddenly stopped moving.
Zhai Rongyu breathed a sigh of relief, slowly approached, and reached out her fingertip to pull the tiger tally from his hand.
But the moment my fingers touched her, they were suddenly gripped!
The invisibility charm disappeared.
Zhai Rong stared at Jun Jingheng in disbelief. "You can see me?!"
Jun Jingheng put away the tiger tally with one hand and pulled her over with the other, smiling somewhat casually, "Are you still wondering why your immobilization talisman didn't work on me?"
Zhai Rongyu was greatly surprised.
She quickly grabbed Jun Jingheng's wrist and examined his meridians.
His eyes showed even more suspicion.
He clearly has no spiritual power.
Why can you not only see me, but also break free from my immobilization spell?
Could it be... that he possesses some kind of magical artifact?
Jun Jingheng stared at her expression and slowly curled the corners of his lips into a smile.
"No need to guess."
"You'll know the answer soon."
He released her hand and suddenly took two steps back.
