Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 230 I Will Not Give In

Chen Wanrong was taken in by Lin Wanyun, who always treated her like her own daughter, so she didn't want to see Chen Wanrong get hurt in any way.

Although she didn't know if Lu Chen would go back on his word, she had no choice but to accept it, as both she and Chen Wanrong had been poisoned by Lu Chen.

Moreover, she has no way to get rid of Lu Chen now, so under these circumstances, she can only choose to sacrifice herself.

She thought to herself that even if Lu Chen went back on his word and refused to give her the antidote, it wouldn't matter. She could take advantage of the time she was having an affair with Lu Chen to find the antidote for the poison that Lu Chen and the others had been poisoned with.

Lu Chen had previously said that the reason they hadn't been poisoned was because he would occasionally sprinkle the antidote into their courtyard. Lu Chen would continue to do so in the future. As long as she spent enough time with Lu Chen, she would eventually be able to find out where Lu Chen hid the antidote.

Just as Lin Wanyun was thinking this, she suddenly felt Lu Chen's claws tugging at her belt.

The thought that she had become Lu Chen's woman filled Lin Wanyun with immense shame.

Although she had feelings for Lu Chen, she would often steal glances at him, admiring his handsome appearance.

However, Lu Chen is a generation younger than her. She is already 32 years old this year, while Lu Chen is at most 18 years old. There is a full 14-year age difference between them.

In her eyes, Lu Chen has always been a big boy, not quite a man yet. This is not because Lu Chen is too childish or immature.

Lu Chen is now a Grandmaster. His physique and aura far surpass those of his peers. He is very mature. However, Lin Wanyun often views Lu Chen from the perspective of an elder, since Lu Chen is, after all, the son of her sworn sister.

At this moment, Lin Wanyun was being held by Lu Chen, a big boy, and her face was flushed and her body was burning hot. A strange feeling was swirling in her heart.

At this moment, she could hear her heart pounding wildly, her blood seemed to be boiling, and she felt a little itchy inside.

This feeling was very strange; it was something she had never experienced before, after all, she had never been so close to a man before.

Lu Chen then whispered in her ear, "Since you've agreed, let's begin."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanyun, who had been in a daze, instantly snapped back to reality.

Beginning? Beginning what?

Could it be that Lu Chen wanted to commit illicit acts with her in the study?

No! Absolutely not!

This is the study. At night, the patrolmen will inevitably pass by the study. What if someone sees her? She doesn't want Chen Wanrong to find out about this.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanyun immediately continued to struggle, saying as she struggled, "Not here!"

Lu Chen said, "If you're not here, then let's go to your room."

Hearing this, Lin Wanyun was taken aback.

If she had actually gone to her own room, Chen Wanrong would probably have noticed immediately.

Lin Wanyun gritted her teeth. So be it. As long as she didn't make a sound, the patrolling people shouldn't notice what was going on in the study.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanyun snorted coldly and said, "If you go back on your word, I will destroy my dantian to take you down with me."

Lu Chen paid no attention to Lin Wanyun's threat. He rested his head on Lin Wanyun's fragrant shoulder and enjoyed the scent of her body.

Lu Chen's heart was completely agitated, but he did not act immediately, and just kept holding Lin Wanyun in his arms.

Lin Wanyun felt a little uncomfortable and twisted slightly again. She didn't want to break free, and she couldn't break free in the moment.

After a while, she realized that Lu Chen was just holding her like that, constantly smelling the fragrance on her body from her neck. Lin Wanyun was a little confused. What was Lu Chen doing? Why didn't he make a move?

Lin Wanyun didn't dare to speak at this moment. She wondered if Lu Chen had suddenly had a change of heart and was planning to let her go.

Come to think of it, she was more than ten years older than him and had already aged and lost her looks, so Lu Chen probably wasn't very interested in her body.

What he just said might have been just him trying to scare himself.

Moreover, she has a very good relationship with Lu Chen's mother, so Lu Chen might not lay a hand on her because of Chu Yue.

At this moment, Lin Wanyun still held a sliver of hope, but she soon sensed something was wrong. Lu Chen's hot breath brushed against her neck, making her nerves extremely sensitive, and all the cells in her body became active.

Although Lu Chen hadn't done anything yet, she felt increasingly unwell, and the blush on her face had spread to her snow-white neck.

He felt like he was about to be set on fire.

Holding Lin Wanyun's full and rounded body in his arms, Lu Chen had long been unable to resist, but he was still restraining himself. After all, there was still plenty of time tonight, and he didn't need to rush.

However, simply holding her like this wasn't enough, so Lu Chen's hands began to roam over Lin Wanyun's body.

As Lu Chen touched her like that, Lin Wanyun's delicate body trembled immediately, and her body became even more sensitive and hotter.

For a moment, Lin Wanyun felt a little lost. She had never been so close to a man before, and she didn't know that being close to a man would produce such feelings. This was the first time she had ever had such a strange feeling.

Lin Wanyun couldn't understand why her body was experiencing these sensations. When had she become such a shameless woman?

After a while, Lin Wanyun's body involuntarily began to writhe. At that moment, the boy's voice rang in her ears, "Wanyun, why has your body become so hot?"

Hearing this, Lin Wanyun's cheeks burned even hotter. She snorted coldly and remained silent, trying to control herself and calm her agitated heart.

However, no matter how hard Lin Wanyun tried to calm her inner turmoil, it was all in vain. Gradually, her consciousness became somewhat blurred.

Lin Wanyun gritted her teeth.

No, she had to stay alert and not fall for this little rascal's tricks!

Lin Wanyun gradually realized that Lu Chen didn't act immediately. He probably wanted to make her break down first, and then ask him for that kind of thing.

This little rascal is trying to humiliate her; she must endure it.

Just as she was thinking this, Lu Chen suddenly released his grip on her wrists and turned her around.

When Lin Wanyun turned around and looked directly at Lu Chen, Lu Chen noticed that there was a pool of autumn water in Lin Wanyun's eyes.

Lin Wanyun was startled when Lu Chen suddenly turned around.

After her hands were released, she instinctively wanted to attack Lu Chen, but her arms were completely powerless and she couldn't lift them at all.

Lin Wanyun was stunned. How could this be...?

At this moment, Lin Wanyun looked up at Lu Chen. Through her hazy vision, she seemed to see Lu Chen staring at her with a wicked smile, which made Lin Wanyun feel even more ashamed.

Lu Chen leaned down at this moment, and Lin Wanyun immediately turned her head to the side, trying to dodge, but Lu Chen's large hand held her head firmly and then kissed her fragrant lips.

"Mmm..."

Lin Wanyun raised her delicate hand and punched Lu Chen's chest, trying to push him away, but it was all in vain.

Soon, Lin Wanyun's mind went blank as she became completely absorbed in Lu Chen's kiss. In the last moment before her consciousness completely blurred, Lin Wanyun knew that it was all over and that she would probably never be able to get rid of Lu Chen again.

In the end, the little rascal still got his way.

This is nobody's fault but theirs. They only have themselves to blame for trying to scheme against Lu Chen, which not only failed but was also discovered by him.

As Lin Wanyun's last vestiges of consciousness faded, she completely succumbed to temptation.

……

The moonlight is beautiful tonight. The moonlight, like ripples on water, spills onto the ground, casting shadows of tree branches that sway and ripple like water.

Summer has arrived, and the night breeze rustles the leaves. At this moment, the maidservant at the gate of the courtyard where the study is located is watching the shadow reflected in the study window.

Seeing the overlapping shadows moving around, the young maid blushed slightly. She was actually used to this kind of thing; as a maid who was on duty in the study, she often saw such scenes.

However, this was the first time she had seen Lin Wanyun in the study, which surprised her. She had previously thought that Lin Wanyun was just a guard captain in the inner courtyard, but she did not expect that Lin Wanyun, as a guard captain, would have such duties.

Just as the young maid was lost in thought, a figure suddenly appeared behind her. "Xiao Huan, has Chen'er gone back?"

Hearing the voice, the maid was startled. She quickly turned her head and saw that it was Chu Yuqin. The maid breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Reporting to Madam Chu, the Prince is still in the study handling state affairs."

Upon hearing the maid's words, Chu Yuqin immediately prepared to walk towards the study, but before she had taken two steps, she heard animal cries.

This……

Chu Yuqin was stunned for a moment.

Then she looked out the window and saw two overlapping dark figures. Chu Yuqin then realized that Lu Chen was not handling official business at all, but was clearly busy doing bad things.

Chu Yuqin glanced at the two dark figures and sneered inwardly. It must be that vixen back again. Why not just go back to her room at night? Coming to the study to do this kind of thing, what does she think the study is? She has no shame.

Chu Yuqin stood still, watching the two writhing black figures for a while.

At this moment, Chu Yuqin felt a sense of confusion. Why wasn't the voice in the study that of the vixen? She was very familiar with the vixen's voice, and her tone was different too.

The voice was even lower now, as if the woman was intentionally suppressing her voice to prevent it from being heard.

If it were that shameless vixen Wang Qingci, she wouldn't care about any of this. Wang Qingci would yell at the top of her lungs, as if afraid that others wouldn't hear her.

Could it be that the person in the study right now isn't Wang Qingci?

Thinking of this, Chu Yuqin turned to the blushing maid beside her and asked, "What's inside the study...?"

Before Chu Yuqin could finish speaking, a woman's voice came from behind her, "Is Madam Chu on duty tonight?"

Hearing that seductive voice, Chu Yuqin was stunned for a moment. Then she turned her head and saw that it was Wang Qingci, that vixen.

Wang Qingci is still outside, so the person inside is definitely not Wang Qingci. Wang Qingci can't be in two places at once, can he?

If it wasn't Wang Qingci, then who was so inconsiderate as to go into Lu Chen's study while he was handling official business and even do that kind of thing with him?

After Wang Qingci arrived at the courtyard gate, she was about to say something when she suddenly heard a series of strange noises. Then she looked up at the study window and saw two dark figures. Wang Qingci smiled and said, "I didn't expect Madam Chu to have such a hobby."

"But what's the point of eavesdropping? Eavesdropping a hundred times is not as good as experiencing it yourself once."

Upon hearing Wang Qingci's words, Chu Yuqin snorted coldly, and without asking who was inside, she turned and left.

Seeing Chu Yuqin's departing figure, Wang Qingci smiled slightly. Although she didn't know if Chu Yuqin had done "that kind of thing" with Lu Chen, in her opinion, apart from the maids and servants, none of the women in the inner courtyard could escape Lu Chen's grasp.

After Chu Yuqin's figure disappeared from sight, Wang Qingci turned to the maid and asked, "Which lady of the Wang family is inside?"

Upon hearing this question, the maid was taken aback. Although Wang Qingci was also Lu Chen's woman, Lin Wanyun was appearing in the study for the first time, and she was unsure whether she could reveal such a thing.

Seeing that the maid hesitated and did not answer directly, Wang Qingci instantly guessed that the woman in the study was definitely not the woman Lu Chen had before, and that Lu Chen had most likely gotten another one.

Is it Chu Qingli? Or Lin Wanyun, or Chen Wanrong?

Judging from this voice, it doesn't sound like Chu Qingli or Chen Wanrong. The voice is somewhat suppressed, and it sounds like it came from someone who is older and has a strong sense of shame.

Then it can only be Lin Wanyun.

Wang Qingci covered her mouth and smiled. She didn't feel jealous because Lu Chen had another woman.

On the contrary, Lu Chen was actually quite happy when he had another woman.

Her feelings toward Lu Chen were always complicated; she was afraid that Lu Chen wouldn't contact her, but she was also afraid that Lu Chen would contact her every day.

It's good for Lu Chen to have more women; then he won't have to keep an eye on this female slave every day.

Thinking of this, Wang Qingci said to his maid Xiaohuan, "Xiaohuan, after the prince has finished his business, tell him that I came to see him. Have someone come to my courtyard to remind me."

The maidservant immediately replied, "Yes, Madam Wang."

Wang Qingci then turned and left.

Early in the morning, the roosters crowed again and again, but Lu Chen was still savoring the same dish from yesterday.

At this moment, Lu Chen felt a little regretful. He felt that he shouldn't have done those things in the study yesterday, but should have found a bedroom instead.

Lin Wanyun and Yelü Nanyan are of the same type; both are very flexible.

A soft body is the most comfortable thing to hold while sleeping, but there's no way to sleep in the study, so it's a bit of a waste.

Just as Lu Chen was busy, a maid's timid voice came from the doorway, "Your Highness, the Princess Consort has prepared breakfast and brought it to you."

Upon hearing this voice, Lin Wanyun snapped out of her daze and tried to break free from Lu Chen, but Lu Chen held her down firmly, making it impossible for her to move.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Wanyun, don't worry, we have plenty of time."

Lin Wanyun turned her head, her face flushed with shame and indignation, and cursed, "You devil, I will not yield!"

Lu Chen chuckled, then said to the maid outside the door, "Take breakfast back and tell the Princess that I will come back to eat later."

"Yes, Your Highness."

After the maid left, Lu Chen leaned down and kissed Lin Wanyun's lips again.

"Mmm..."
