Chapter 761: Chapter 761: The Edge of Losing Control_1
The next morning, Qin Sisi was awakened by a kiss.
At daybreak, Ye You transford back from his feline form into a human. The transformation pulled him from his slumber, and he felt invigorated by the surging power and magic within him.
Turning his head to gaze at the sleeping Qin Sisi, her long eyelashes cast a soft shadow beneath her eyes, her delicate nose, cherry-like lips, shallow breaths making her appear like a... docile kitten.
Recalling the gentle feel of Qin Sisi’s arms from the previous night, Ye You could not resist and moved closer, delivering a string of kisses. At first gentle, his actions grew more forceful as his passion escalated, unable to control his desires, he tightened his hold on Qin Sisi.
Qin Sisi, thusly roused, instinctively tried to push Ye You away, but found herself overpowered.
Succumbing to Ye You’s ardor, her consciousness began to blur and without realizing it, she found herself pinned beneath him.
Ye You abruptly stopped, recognizing that he was about to lose control. Sowhat reluctantly, he released Qin Sisi and forced himself to enter the bathroom for a cold shower.
Watching Ye You’s disappearing figure at the doorway, Qin Sisi slowly sat up and started tidying her ssy clothes and hair.
After so ti, Ye You erged from the bathroom, his lips pressed together and his face still a little damp, with water droplets falling from the strands of hair on his forehead.
He walked up to Qin Sisi, taking her hand and placing her warm palm on his cool cheek, gazing into her eyes as he muttered a low "I’m sorry."
Qin Sisi cast her eyes downward, shaking her head slightly.
She did not bla him at all. In her heart, they were bound to end up together eventually; she just didn’t expect it to happen so soon.
Seeing Qin Sisi’s silence, Ye You began to grow anxious.
He took a seat by her side, wrapping his arm around her shoulders and whispered, "Are you mad?"
Qin Sisi shook her head again, still silent.
Ye You spoke softly, "You are upset, you can hit
if you want."
He took her hand and lightly smacked it against his chest.
Qin Sisi quickly withdrew her hand, whispering, "I’m not upset."
"Really?" Ye You stared earnestly into Qin Sisi’s eyes.
Qin Sisi’s gaze remained calm which reassured Ye You. He reached out to touch her loose strands of hair.
Their breakfast was delivered by Teacher Mo Liu, which conveniently broke the awkward atmosphere resulting from their near loss of control.
By the ti they had finished their al, their moods had mostly recovered. A mutual understanding conducive to laughter passed between their intersecting gazes, making the mory of their first encounter at the edge of control seem like a small secret.
Soon after, Jing Jing ca to find them, prepared to continue Qin Sisi’s treatnt.
By calculation, she should have been there last night, but she had noticed the special relationship between Ye You and Qin Sisi. Considering that Ye You’s curse had just been dispelled, she figured they might want to spend so ti alone.
Jing Jing wasn’t entirely sure how far Qin Sisi and Ye You’s relationship had progressed, but she was sure that it would have been an intrusion if she had visited last night. Thus, she tactfully chose to co by the next morning.
Understanding Jing Jing’s intentions, Qin Sisi glanced at Ye You. Thanks to the Jade lting Pill, her injuries had healed and her skin was back to normal. But could she let Jing Jing know?
If she told Jing Jing, then she wouldn’t be able to keep the fact that Ye You’s curse had not been completely lifted a secret anymore.
After a mont of thought, Ye You addressed Jing Jing, "Jing Jing, here’s what happened: My magic level has increased, and my healing skills have improved. So, I healed Sisi already. Besides, Teacher Mo Liu gave us a valuable pill, and Sisi’s skin has recovered. There’s no longer a need for treatnt."
Qin Sisi was initially worried that Jing Jing would be offended, but soon discovered her worry was unnecessary.
Jing Jing happily responded, "It’s great that Ms. Qin has fully recovered! I was just thinking of asking Teacher Ru Lin for help!"
Ye You and Qin Sisi exchanged a smile before standing up and saying, "Actually, I have sothing to take care of. You two have a chat!"
"Okay." Jing Jing readily agreed with a nod.
Once Ye You had left, Jing Jing thought for a bit before proposing to Qin Sisi, "Ms. Qin, do you want to go out for a walk? It might be a bit stuffy staying in the room all day."
Qin Sisi approached Jing Jing, smiling as she said, "I wouldn’t mind going out for a walk, but first, you need to change how you address . Don’t call
Ms. Qin anymore, just call
Sisi."
"That... wouldn’t be quite appropriate, would it?" Jing Jing was hesitant since Qin Sisi was Ye You’s woman, and likely to beco queen if Ye You beca the Sage Ruler. Caling her by her na felt disrespectful.
Qin Sisi teased, "What’s inappropriate about it? If you insist on calling
that way, then I’ll start calling you Ms. Muyin!"
Jing Jing laughed sowhat helplessly. But seeing Qin Sisi’s sincere attitude, she nodded and agreed, "Alright then, Sisi."
"That’s more like it!" Qin Sisi grabbed Jing Jing’s hand and led her outside, asking as they walked, "There’s one thing I’ve noticed. Qing Xun and ng Yu all call Ye You by his na, but you and Yun Wang refer to him as ’Your Highness’. Why is that?"
Jing Jing’s laughter died down as she replied solemnly, "I don’t care how others address him, in my heart, he is the Prince of the Demon Sacred Realm."
Qin Sisi studied Jing Jing intently, guessing that Yun Wang’s thoughts were similar to hers. Indeed, Ye You was more than just their classmate; he was the prince of the Demon Sacred Realm, soone they needed to respect and be loyal to.
Jing Jing continued, "When we were in school, His Highness said that we didn’t need to be formal in school and that we could call him by his na. So of our classmates started to call him by his na, but I feel that a prince is still the prince. Even as classmates, we need to understand our own status.
When the Ancient Gods created the Demon Sacred Realm, they included only the Phoenix as the main God, the other eight were auxiliary gods. The Jiuxi Royal Family are descendants of the Phoenix, the rulers of the Demon Sacred Realm. There needs to be a proper relationship between the rulers and the assistants for the Demon Sacred Realm to remain peaceful and stable.
If assistants want to be on the sa level as rulers, wouldn’t that an there are too many rulers? If that were the case, the Demon Sacred Realm would likely fall into utter chaos."
Qin Sisi looked at Jing Jing in surprise; this quiet girl who often went unnoticed was not as ordinary as she appeared. She had a clear worldview and a solid set of values, and she was actively protecting her world in her own way.
She was being cautious in adhering to the rules of this world not because she was timid or cowardly but because she believed it to be right.
