11: Chapter 11 I Want to Tell You a Secret_1 11: Chapter 11 I Want to Tell You a Secret_1 Lu Chuan swallowed and, pretending not to understand, said, “Sister-in-law, stop joking around, it’s getting late, you should go back to your room and rest.”
Mu Nanqing looked at Lu Chuan and said, “While you were taking a shower, Qin Lan called you.
She said the man from last night died, and his brother is coming to seek revenge on you.
I was outside your door and heard you say that only through dual cultivation can you have a chance to make a breakthrough and avoid this crisis.”
“I looked up what dual cultivation ans on the internet, Xiaochuan, I can’t just watch you fall into crisis and do nothing, so…
let’s dual cultivate together!”
Having said this, she reached out to hug Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan felt a fragrant breeze rushing towards him and subconsciously took two steps back to avoid Mu Nanqing.
Mu Nanqing, seeing this, looked at Lu Chuan sowhat angrily and asked, “Xiaochuan, do you find repulsive?”
Lu Chuan hurriedly explained, “Sister-in-law, that’s not what I ant.
Right now, this indeed is the only way for to quickly make a breakthrough to deal with Lin Hu, but us two… sigh.”
He didn’t know what to say for a mont.
Mu Nanqing said earnestly, “This is a matter of life and death, why worry about so much, the urgent matter is to let you make a breakthrough as soon as possible, I…
I won’t bla you.”
“Moreover, there’s no relationship between us anyway, you don’t have to feel guilty.”
After saying that, she pounced on Lu Chuan, knocking him down onto the bed.
Lu Chuan saw Mu Nanqing’s hair drape down, the knot of her bath towel at her chest nearly coming undone, revealing her full cleavage as her heart raced wildly, he quickly turned his head away to keep his sanity.
“Maybe…
I should just give in, this is indeed the only chance for a breakthrough.” He began to struggle internally, mainly because Mu Nanqing was just too alluring, and he was about to lose control.
Mu Nanqing was even more nervous than Lu Chuan at this mont, but since he refused to touch her, she had to take the initiative for this guy’s safety.
She placed her hand on the bath towel at her chest and said, “Xiaochuan, let’s…
begin.”
Then she was about to pull off the towel covering her body.
At this mont, Lu Chuan suddenly thought of how his brother had always been good to him in the past.
If he touched Mu Nanqing now just to save his own life, he would be worse than an animal.
He grabbed Mu Nanqing’s hand and then pushed her away from him, took a few deep breaths and said, “Sister-in-law, calm down.
Lin Hu is tough, but it’s not like I don’t have a chance to defeat him; we don’t have to do this no matter what.”
After saying that, he quickly left the room.
Mu Nanqing lay there on the bed in a daze, and after a long while, she sighed deeply, picked up that box of little umbrellas, and went back to her own room.
Lu Chuan sat on the sofa in the living room and, lifting his hand, harshly slapped himself on the cheek, “I almost couldn’t restrain myself just now.
Damnit!”
It took a long while before his emotions gradually cald down.
At that mont, Mu Nanqing ca out of her room, already dressed in her clothes, still with a hint of unease in her expression.
She walked up to Lu Chuan and spoke slowly, “Xiaochuan, I’m sorry…”
Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, I know you’re worried about , you’re the only one in this world who would be so good to .”
Mu Nanqing asked, “Xiaochuan, when you said you had a chance to defeat the man who wants to kill you, were you just comforting , or was it true?”
Lu Chuan thought for a mont and said seriously, “It’s true.”
Mu Nanqing nodded, “Then I’ll believe you this ti.”
She took a few seconds to think, then her tone suddenly changed, “But if you lie to , I’ll never forgive you for the rest of my life!”
Lu Chuan took a deep breath, “Okay.”
He wasn’t lying to Mu Nanqing.
Even though he only had the strength of Qi Cultivation Level 1 and stood no chance against an expert of Inner Strength Stage 5, his inherited mories recorded so secret techniques which could temporarily enhance his strength by consuming his life essence blood.
His only concern was that even after using the secret technique, he might still be no match for Lin Hu.
But at this point, he only had to risk it all.
“Sister-in-law, it’s getting late.
You should go back to rest.
I need to focus on securing a ray of hope for myself,” said Lu Chuan.
Mu Nanqing nodded, hesitation visible on her face before she summoned the courage and said, “After this crisis is over, I…
I have a secret to tell you, so you must survive!”
Having said that, she hurried back to her room.
“A secret?” Lu Chuan wore a puzzled expression, having no clue what Mu Nanqing intended to reveal to him, which aroused his curiosity.
However, he felt this was probably just Mu Nanqing’s way of making sure he wouldn’t give up, a tactic to inspire him.
Putting further thoughts aside, he imdiately concentrated all his mind and began probing the secret technique from his ancestral mory.
anwhile.
Chu ngyao drove up to the entrance of an upscale club.
She handed the car keys to the valet and stepped into the club on her high heels.
A woman greeted her respectfully, “Miss Chu.”
Chu ngyao asked, “Where’s Sister Hong?”
The woman answered, “She’s waiting for you in the top-floor room.”
Chu ngyao nodded, “I got it, you don’t need to follow.”
She took the elevator alone to the top floor and followed the corridor to a room decorated with an ancient flair.
All the furnishings and decorations inside, from the bed to the various embellishnts, were such as one would only find in ancient drama series; stepping inside, Chu ngyao almost thought she had traveled back to ancient tis.
She saw a translucent screen not far off with an elegantly dressed, noble figure playing the pipa with deep affection behind it.
The music was at tis urgent, at other tis soothing, its reverberations lingering in the air and intoxicating to those who heard it.
Possibly sensing Chu ngyao’s arrival, the pipa music stopped abruptly, and the graceful figure behind the screen stood up and walked out.
She was dressed in a traditional red gown, her deanor composed, her bearing graceful, her beauty stunning enough to topple cities.
Her hair was coifed, and a red lotus adorned her forehead, giving her an air of transcendence and commanding presence, as if a queen had descended into the mortal world.
Chu ngyao watched the woman, a smile spreading across her face as she flattered, “Sister Hong, you played beautifully just now.
Your skill is definitely on par with the masters.”
The woman smiled faintly, “You rarely complint outright.
Tell , what do you want to do for you?”
Feeling sowhat embarrassed to have her intentions seen through so easily, Chu ngyao walked over and linked arms with the woman, coquettishly pleading, “Can’t you let save so face, Sister Hong?”
This woman, nad Gu Hongzhuang, was like Chu ngyao, one of the four great beauties of Cloud City and the goddess in the hearts of countless n.
Compared to Chu ngyao, however, she ca across as more mature, her every gesture oozing charm, her deanor relaxed and composed, her eyes as serene as the stars themselves, betraying not a single ripple.
She was a woman with ans.
Chu ngyao had t her several years ago; they hit it off due to similar interests and quickly beca good friends.
The reason for seeking her out this ti was not only because of her considerable influence but also because of her special status.
She was Long Tianya’s lover.
