Xi Yue let out a painful groan, but did not struggle as she had just done in the bedroom.
But when Ji Mingyu heard her soft and pitiful voice, it was as if ice water was poured over his head and he suddenly came to his senses.
He stood up, his red eyes flashing with a trace of clarity that he tried hard to maintain, "Xi'er?"
Xi Yue said: "It's me."
"It's really... Xi'er, I'm not dreaming?" Ji Mingyu's voice was hoarse and broken, he murmured to himself like a dream, "No, it can't be Xi'er, Xi'er hates me so much, she won't get close to me again, won't let me touch her again! Xi'er she... she wants to marry someone else..."
When the man said these words, his expression was as confused as a helpless child, so fragile and so desperate.
Xi Yue felt as if her whole heart was being pierced by thousands of needles. The pain was unbearable and her eyes became wet.
She reached out and stroked the man's face, and whispered, "No, it's not a dream. Xi'er doesn't hate you either. She just didn't think it through for a moment and got stuck in a dead end. But from the beginning to the end, she only loves you, and she won't marry anyone else except you."
Because of these gentle words, a bright light lit up in the originally desperate and fragile eyes.
The light seemed like pure joy, but also like a burning desire that wanted to devour her.
The girl under him was wearing a light pink dress that she had just changed into. The dress was very ordinary and not eye-catching at all.
But when worn on the person in front of me, it looks so stunningly beautiful and ethereal like a fairy.
The gold-threaded collar was torn open by him during the struggle, revealing the girl's delicate collarbone and skin more crystal clear than snow.
Ji Mingyu's hand was still touching that warm and smooth skin. The wonderful touch was transmitted from his fingers to his brain, making his blood, which was frozen by the Marrow Ice Prison, boil like oil in a raging fire.
Ji Mingyu's breathing suddenly became heavy, his eyes fixed on the girl under him, as if he wanted to swallow her whole.
Xi Yue met that naked gaze and the burning palm touching her body. She felt as if a fire was burning on her body. She was embarrassed, nervous and uneasy. However, she did not struggle as usual. Instead, she grabbed Ji Mingyu's sleeve.
Her long eyelashes drooped and trembled slightly, as if she was a little scared, yet indescribably obedient.
"Xier, Xier..." Ji Mingyu murmured the girl's name, lowered his head to capture the girl's lips and kissed her passionately.
But suddenly, he seemed to remember something, his face changed drastically, and his body rolled outward, hitting the rock beside him heavily, which also allowed Xi Yue to break free from his shackles.
Xi Yue was stunned for a moment, then immediately got up and was about to rush towards him.
Ji Mingyu yelled, "Don't come over here!"
Visible frost condensed on his hair again, and the air around him became cold and depressing again.
Xi Yue was yelled at so hard that she stopped in her tracks, unable to move forward. Her eyes were filled with worry. "Ji Mingyu, your Flowing Marrow Ice Prison has taken effect, right? Can you let me treat you? You know that only the Wood Essence in me can cure the Flowing Marrow Ice Prison's poison."
“No! No way!” Ji Mingyu’s expression was painful and distorted, as if he was trying his best to resist his instinct. His hands were clasped tightly on the rock, his nails were turned up, and his flesh was bloody, but he was unaware of anything. “Xi Yue, you… you leave here immediately, otherwise I can’t control myself and I will hurt you!” (To be continued)
