Douluo Continent: Twin Golden and Silver Dragons Shock Bibi Dong

Tang Yuehua stiffly turned her head away, her face flushed red as if it were about to bleed, her eyes filled with shock and shame, her eye circles turning red at a visible speed, staring intently at Xuan Hao.

Upon seeing her expression as if she was about to cry, Xuan Hao, who had been so composed just moments before, felt a sudden jolt of panic.

"No... let me explain, I really didn't mean it!" Xuan Hao quickly raised his hands, his face full of guilt as he tried to explain.

Tang Yuehua bit her lower lip tightly, not saying a word, but the tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably, as if they were about to burst forth as a torrent of aggrieved tears.

"Oh my god, don't cry! I swear, I really didn't mean to!"

Xuan Hao was completely dumbfounded. "It really just happened on a whim! I just gave Liu Erlong a full massage yesterday. I was thinking about something just now, and my mind wandered, so my hand just slipped down based on muscle memory... I really didn't mean to take advantage of you!"

To prove his innocence, Xuan Hao spoke while quickly getting off the bed, even taking several steps back to create a safe distance between himself and Tang Yuehua.

Seeing his panicked appearance, which made him try to avoid her at all costs, Tang Yuehua's intense grievance and fear subsided a little.

Although this guy is despicable, judging from his reaction, he doesn't seem to have planned this whole thing beforehand.

Even so, she was still furious!

Seeing Tang Yuehua still glaring at him with red eyes, Xuan Hao rubbed his temples in exasperation: "I really was distracted! And... and it wasn't just when I was helping Liu Erlong, but when I massaged Na'er and the other girls at home, I just slid right down! I've gotten used to it, it's really just a matter of practice making me sick!"

An awkward, deathly silence fell over the room. Time ticked by, with only the smoke from the calming incense rising silently.

As her emotions gradually calmed down, Tang Yuehua took a deep breath, suppressing her shame and indignation. Her face flushed, she glared at Xuan Hao, who was standing a few steps away, and asked through gritted teeth, "Did you do this on purpose?"

"My dear sister!" Xuan Hao said with a bitter face, spreading his hands helplessly. "If I really wanted to force myself on you, I could have just used my qi and blood to knock you out. Wouldn't that have been much simpler and easier? Why would I be here here, anxiously apologizing to you? It really just happened on the spur of the moment! It was absolutely not intentional!"

Hearing him say that, Tang Yuehua gradually calmed down, but then she seized on the blind spot in his words.

She glared at him, her cheeks, which had calmed down a bit, burning hot again: "Just like that? Do you usually... press like that with other people?!"

Xuan Hao sighed helplessly, "Although Na'er and the others are still young, they're all a bit mischievous. We often play little games to strengthen our bonds when we're alone, and this full-body massage is just the right thing to do. Besides, you've already experienced how effective my massage is at improving blood circulation. Everyone's so tired from cultivation, I'm just providing free logistical support! How can that be considered taking advantage?"

Tang Yuehua was amused by his twisted logic and glared at him fiercely: "I already made you take off your clothes, isn't that taking advantage of me?!"

"Okay, okay, I took advantage, I'm despicable." Xuan Hao raised his hands in surrender, taking the blame without hesitation. "But this time I really, absolutely didn't do it on purpose. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time."

A few steps apart, the two fell silent again.

Tang Yuehua buried her face in her arms, her mind in turmoil.

If it ends like this, she'll not only be embarrassed, but also feel very uncomfortable being stuck halfway through her journey.

After a long while, Tang Yuehua finally made up her mind and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, "Continue."

"what?"

This time, it was Xuan Hao's turn to be stunned.

"What do you mean, 'ah'?"

Tang Yuehua turned her head away, rolled her eyes at him, and her beautiful eyes were full of coquettish reproach.

"Are you just going to leave me here halfway through? Come here! And... don't touch me there again!"

"call--"

Xuan Hao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, as long as you're not angry. I promise to finish the massage properly for you."

With that, Xuan Hao walked back to the bedside.

To avoid a repeat of the previous embarrassment, and to put Tang Yuehua at ease, he took out a large piece of black silk from his storage ring and gently covered it, completely concealing the alluring glimpse of her skin.

Because of that slip, the thin black silk was immediately soaked through and clung tightly to her skin as soon as it was placed on her.

The strange, silky, cool, and sticky sensation instantly filled Tang Yuehua with an indescribable sense of shame and indignation.

But she gritted her teeth and swallowed back the complaint that was about to spill out.

After all, she was the one who asked them to continue, so she couldn't very well order Xuanhao to remove the cloth now, could she?

Wouldn't that be even more awkward!

In the time that followed, Xuan Hao completely put away his carefree and irresponsible thoughts.

He focused all his attention and diligently helped Tang Yuehua complete the remaining procedures.

I pressed the acupoints from the top of the head all the way down to the soles of the feet.

Of course, having learned from past mistakes, Xuan Hao didn't dare to touch it this time and took a perfect detour.

If this "muscle memory" were to happen again, Tang Yuehua would probably really cry on the spot.

Chapter 286 Nothing Behind

……

The sky gradually darkened without anyone noticing.

Under the gentle evaporation of the essential oils and the subtle soothing effect of the Qi and blood, Tang Yuehua's tense nerves completely relaxed, and she actually fell into a deep sleep during Xuan Hao's massage.

Suddenly, as if some kind of alarm had been triggered in her subconscious, she woke up with a start.

The shameful images from before she fell asleep flashed through her mind, and Tang Yuehua's heart skipped a beat as a strong sense of panic surged through her.

How could she have fallen asleep so unguarded?!

Her clothes were all torn. Could it be that Xuan Hao, that lecherous little bastard, had secretly done something outrageous while she was asleep?

She suddenly opened her eyes, her body tensing instinctively.

However, the expected sense of unease did not materialize.

She found herself lying peacefully on the bed, completely covered by a soft silk quilt.

Apart from the feeling of ease and comfort that comes from the ultimate massage, which permeates even the bones, there was no discomfort whatsoever.

Even the sheer curtains around the bed were carefully drawn, creating an absolutely private and safe space.

Tang Yuehua slowly breathed a sigh of relief, sat up, casually grabbed a large outer robe from the head of the bed and simply draped it over her body, tightly wrapping her alluring curves.

She carefully lifted a corner of the curtain and peeked out.

In the dim light of the room, she saw that Xuan Hao had not left, but was lying sprawled on the cashmere carpet not far away, his hands behind his head, his chest rising and falling with his even breathing, and he had actually fallen asleep.

Seeing his completely unguarded sleeping posture, Tang Yuehua was completely relieved.

But when her gaze swept across the room and she noticed the half-open window for ventilation, and then looked at Xuan Hao lying casually on the carpet without any covers, her brows furrowed slightly.

Tang Yuehua quietly lifted the curtain and got out of bed. She carried the silk quilt that was still warm on her body and walked over. She bent down and gently covered Xuan Hao with the quilt.

Then she turned and walked to the window.

It was completely dark by then, but this was, after all, the most central and prosperous area of ​​Tiandou City.

As dusk settles and the night market begins, the streets outside the window are bustling with traffic, and the lights of thousands of homes illuminate the entire city like a dazzling galaxy.

A cool night breeze blew in through the crack in the window, ruffling her long, loose hair and making Tang Yuehua, who was only wearing a thin garment, shiver slightly from the cold.

She reached out her hand, preparing to close the window.

"How was your rest? Are you still feeling sore?"

A lazy, slightly hoarse male voice suddenly rang out behind her without warning.

"what!"

Tang Yuehua was startled by the sudden sound, and with a forceful slam, she closed the window tightly.

She turned around abruptly, glaring at Xuan Hao, who had somehow opened his eyes and was now looking at her with a beaming smile. Her cheeks flushed, and she snapped, "How dare you ask!"

Xuan Hao sat up on the carpet, looked at the silk quilt covering him, and helplessly spread his hands. "I really didn't mean to do it back then, it was all muscle memory..."

"Shut up!"

Tang Yuehua rolled her eyes at him, embarrassed and annoyed, and had no desire to recall that embarrassing interlude.

She turned her head, walked quickly back to the bedside, and drew the curtains.

After a short while, Tang Yuehua emerged from behind the curtain again, amidst the rustling sounds of dressing.

At this moment, she had changed back into a neat and elaborate court dress.

That noble, dignified, and elegant demeanor of the Yuexuan Pavilion Master returned to her, as if the little woman who was just now filled with shame and indignation was not her at all.

However, since she had just woken up, her long, flowing hair hadn't been styled yet and was draped messily over her shoulders, adding a touch of languid charm to her dignified appearance.

Upon seeing this, Xuan Hao immediately jumped up from the carpet and fawned over him, volunteering, "Come, come, sit down, I'll fix your hair!"

Tang Yuehua walked to the dressing table and sat down. She glared at the eager guy behind her through the mirror, but in the end, she didn't say anything to shoo him away.

Speaking of which, Xuanhao's skill in combing and tying hair was taught to him by her back then.

That little rascal, wanting to please Na'er, said he wanted to do her hair himself, and shamelessly pestered her for a long time to learn.

It must be admitted that although this guy usually seems carefree, he learns things incredibly fast, which is enviable. In no time, he had mastered her exquisite hairstyling skills perfectly.

Xuan Hao picked up the wooden comb, his slender fingers deftly weaving through Tang Yuehua's soft hair.

He got the hang of it quickly, his technique was skillful and gentle, and he even used a little bit of his qi and blood to massage her scalp.

Before long, a noble and elegant hairstyle, without a single mess, took shape in Xuan Hao's hands.

He casually picked out a jade hairpin and inserted it into his hair to secure the final look.

"It's done!"

Xuan Hao clapped his hands, looked at the stunning beauty in the mirror who had regained her elegant radiance, and snapped his fingers in satisfaction: "Perfect! As expected of me, this skill is absolutely unique in Tiandou City."

Tang Yuehua stood up, glared at him through the mirror on the dressing table, and urged, "Alright, it's getting late. Don't linger here any longer, hurry up and go."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Hao blinked in confusion and spread his hands, asking, "Go where? Where to?"

"Of course you should go back to yourself..."

Tang Yuehua's voice trailed off mid-sentence. A complex emotion flickered in her gentle, beautiful eyes, and she swallowed the rest of her sentence.

Go back to your own home?

Looking at the arrogant young man who commanded respect in Tiandou City, Tang Yuehua felt a pang of sadness.

Xuanhao is an orphan.

She had known about this for several years.

This brat, who is now lawless in Tiandou City and is mistaken by various top forces and royal relatives as having some unspeakable behemoth behind him, has been completely relying on others for power since the first day he stepped into Tiandou City!
