The Dark Moonlight returns to the capital, and the mad prince is accused of forcing love.

When it comes to supplementing this stuff, practice makes perfect.

Even though she had typhoid fever, Xu Qianhui did not experience the discomfort she felt the first time.

However, when the old woman saw that she had returned after only a few days, she not only looked at her strangely, but also specifically reminded her that things were tense recently and it would be best not to come over frequently in the short term.

Xu Qianhui sighed.

She didn't want to either, but she was unlucky last time. Not only did she run into Lin Zuoqing, but he also came over in the middle of the night and went crazy.

If this goes well, she won't have to come back.

Back in the courtyard in the west of the city, Xu Qianhui felt much more relaxed, so she asked Qingyi to arrange the renovation of the perfume shop, while she played with Bai Ze in the courtyard.

As the sun began to set, Qingyi returned to deliver medicine and dinner, then hurriedly went out again.

Xu Qianhui ate a few bites casually, pinched her nose and drank the medicine, and gave the rest of the food to Bai Ze.

As the sun set and the sun warmed the air, Xu Qianhui finally grew tired and went back to her room to take a short rest.

Upon opening the door, she saw Lin Zuoqing leaning against the soft couch where she often lay, casually flipping through a book.

Light streamed through the window, dappling his tall figure, making him look just like a boy diligently preparing for exams.

On the table beside him was a mahogany tray.

On the tray, two sets of riding outfits, one light blue and one bright red, were neatly arranged.

Xu Qianhui suddenly realized.

In the end, he couldn't go against the old lady's wishes.

She calmly closed the door behind her, ignored Lin Zuoqing, and went straight to the bedside to lie down fully clothed.

"Where did you go?"

Lin Zuoqing's deep voice came through.

It was like interrogating a husband whose wife hadn't come home all night.

Xu Qianhui turned over, not intending to respond, but thinking of the body she had just recovered from, and fearing he might go crazy again, she spoke up sullenly.

"I caught a cold and went to get some medicine." Xu Qianhui buried her face in the quilt. "A cold is no small matter, and I can't bear to be disturbed. If Lord Lin has nothing else to do, please close the door for me when you leave."

The book closed very quietly.

Lin Zuoqing did not respond.

His eyes first fell on her pale lips, then on her legs hidden under the covers.

His eyes darkened: "To get the medicine, you have to go to the alley in the south of the city."

Oh no, I'm being followed again.

Xu Qianhui's fingers curled slightly under the covers, but she quickly smiled.

"Now even when women see a doctor, the Jingzhao Prefecture has to keep a record."

The sound of boots clattering against the paving stones drew ever closer.

Xu Qianhui felt a tickle in her throat as she listened to the noise, but she forced herself to suppress a cough.

Lin Zuoqing stopped in front of the bed and looked down at her.

"Xu Qianhui, are you that desperate for a man?"

Xu Qianhui felt a pang of sadness when she recalled that both times the blood had been drawn because of him.

After the initial sourness, it seemed ridiculous.

"Lord Lin already has a fiancée, yet you come to me? Are you that desperate for women?" She looked at him. "If you can't bear to part with me, why not compete with Zuo An for me?"

Lin Zuoqing ignored the second half of her sentence and scoffed, "You think you can compare to her? She is noble and self-possessed, a model of a noble lady."

It means that he loves Lin Zhiwei and cannot bear to harm her in the slightest.

In his eyes, she was nothing more than a hungry woman who only wanted to climb into his bed.

Xu Qianhui slowly propped herself up, her black hair falling onto the moon-white brocade quilt, as if ink had stained her purity.

She couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He used to love her so much that he studied day and night to become the top scholar in the imperial examination, yet he still clung to her all night long.

This shows how cheap love was back then.

There was not a shred of pity.

"Does Lord Lin know why I'm going to the South City Alley?" Xu Qianhui asked softly, and before Lin Zuoqing could answer, she smiled and replied to herself, "The polo match is in five days. I was thinking, if Zuo Anru is happy..."

"He won't accompany you." Lin Zuoqing interrupted her coldly: "The Marquis of Wu'an's mansion has sent an invitation to the Grand Tutor's mansion. Qin Miaoyun will not give you even the slightest chance to get close to him."

The room fell silent.

Xu Qianhui looked at him, and the string in her heart finally relaxed.

Indeed, my decision to fix it myself was the right one.

If I were to actually face off against Lin Zuo'an at the racecourse, there would be no way to make amends afterward.

She lowered her eyes and chuckled softly.

Lin Zuoqing frowned: "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, I just thought of something funny."

"So, even knowing he's lying to you, you still go out of your way to get him?"

"Lord Lin knew he was lying, so why didn't you seek justice for me?" Xu Qianhui raised her face. "Or is it that Lord Lin only knows how to show off his power in my room?"

Lin Zuoqing grabbed her wrist: "Xu Qianhui, don't be ungrateful."

Xu Qianhui gasped in pain.

Very well, he hurt her again.

Then don't blame her for dragging him into the mire.

"If I didn't know what was good for me, I would have made a big fuss about what happened back then all over the capital long ago."

"For someone like me to be even a concubine is already a sign of Zuo An's pity. Lord Lin's repeated attempts to sabotage things are nothing but jealousy!"

"Xu Qianhui!" Lin Zuoqing's eyes blazed with suppressed anger, his grip tightening slightly. "Say that again!"

"I said, Zuo An pitied me. He was willing to give me money, a house, and care for me."

"Where is Lord Lin?"

"All Lord Lin does is climb through windows, interrogate, and physically assault me, then call me shameless."

At this point, Xu Qianhui smiled gently again.

She got up, walked to the window, and pushed open the window.

The autumn colors in the courtyard are a beautiful blend of green and yellow, a true masterpiece of nature.

She pulled her clothes down to her shoulders and turned to look at Lin Zuoqing.

"Don't you like sitting by the window? After this, we're even, okay?"

A blush rose on the girl's sickly face, and her prominent collarbone caught all the golden light of the setting sun.

Her clear, fearless eyes are a beauty that no painting could capture with brush and ink.

Lin Zuoqing swallowed hard, and the hot blood in his body uncontrollably rushed to a single point.

The next moment, he strode over and pulled the person into his arms, planting a passionate kiss on her without any hesitation.

He wanted her body.

I really want to.

Xu Qianhui's white arms climbed up his neck, her fingertips repeatedly kneading his earlobes.

This used to be his most sensitive spot.

Lin Zuoqing groaned and lifted her buttocks.

Xu Qianhui jumped up and wrapped her legs around his waist.

The two used to be intimate, and Xu Qianhui would occasionally play tricks on him, making him recite his lessons while engaging in sexual activity.

He enjoyed it immensely, and while reciting "A gentleman who is not dignified will not command respect," he would repeatedly say, "Ahui, I love you."

Now, he has to keep quiet even when he's not making a sound.

Xu Qianhui tilted her long neck back and slightly raised the corners of her mouth.

Isn't this another kind of experience?

However, half an hour later, she could no longer laugh.

because......

Lin Zuoqing's physical strength is truly amazing!

Like a gourmand who had tasted the sweetness of delicacies, he indulged in the delights from the window to the soft couch, and from the couch to the bed, without stopping for a moment.

Xu Qianhui's waist ached and she begged for mercy repeatedly, but he became even more excited.

"Xu Qianhui, didn't you want to settle things even?"

That night, the lights in the room kept turning on and off.

As dawn broke, Lin Zuoqing finally left.

The door was pushed open again, and a woman in green came in carrying hot water.

Her eyes were red and swollen; she had been crying for who knows how long.

"Miss, how could he... how could he bully you like this!"

It was definitely bullying, taking advantage of the fact that I was physically weaker than him.

"Good girl, don't cry. How do you know I didn't win?"

Xu Qianhui coaxed Qingyi, quickly washed herself, and, despite her aching back, changed into Qingyi's clothes.

The woman in green was puzzled: "Miss, what's wrong with you...?"

Xu Qianhui blinked.

"A well-fed wild animal is most prone to drowsiness, so I should take this opportunity to go to the South City Alley again."
