The Yin energy in the ditation room had nearly dissipated. He was not sure if it was due to Cheng Qi’s progress in cultivation, but Li Tianyan noticed the Yin energy extracted from Cheng Qi this ti was highly saturated, and the dark energy ball had doubled in size compared to the others. Li Tianyan couldn’t help but lick his lips, feeling as if he had just had a satisfying al.
With the Yin energy no longer causing trouble, Cheng Qi’s mind gradually cleared. Even before opening his eyes, he realized he was tightly holding soone familiar.
In that mont, Cheng Qi comprehended what had occurred. Although he was a bit dazed earlier, he still recalled so of his actions. Unsure of how to face the situation, he chose to keep his eyes closed and pretend to be asleep.
Without the birthmark concealing it, Li Tianyan could clearly see Cheng Qi’s fluttering eyelashes. He chuckled inwardly, reaching out to touch Cheng Qi’s side tickling him, causing him to break the act and burst into laughter.
“I won’t pretend anymore, I won’t pretend anymore, young master, please stop,” Cheng Qi begged for rcy, dodging Li Tianyan’s playful attempts.
The laughter ceased, and an awkward silence enveloped the two on the bed. Li Tianyan observed Cheng Qi’s flushed face from their earlier movents and felt an inexplicable urge to take a bite and giving in to the impulse, he did so.
Cheng Qi, surprised by the sudden bite, widened his eyes in disbelief. He even let go of his grip on Li Tianyan, seemingly unable to fathom that he would do such a thing.
Regaining his composure, Li Tianyan felt his actions were a bit abrupt. He coughed lightly before taking out a black bracelet and placing it on Cheng Qi’s left hand. “You’re not allowed to take it off in the future.”
This bracelet represented the fourth level of Li Tianyan’s advanced Qi Condensation—a special protective magic tool that could conceal various spiritual bodies. Though it lacked inherent spiritual energy, it could suppress Cheng Qi’s potential energy explosion in the future.
Cheng Qi raised his hand, touched the bracelet, and carefully hid it in his sleeve, offering Li Tianyan a sweet smile.
Li Tianyan found himself montarily captivated by Cheng Qi’s smiling face. Cheng Qi’s ability to maintain a cheerful deanor regardless of adversity had a magnetic effect on Li Tianyan, fostering a desire to protect him.
Sighing inwardly, Li Tianyan reached out and ruffled Cheng Qi’s furry head before turning over to lay down beside him. “Go to sleep.”
Observing that Li Tianyan intended to spend the night there, Cheng Qi’s heart skipped a beat. After so hesitation, he mustered the courage to glance sideways. Indeed, Li Tianyan had already closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
This marked their first ti sharing a bed, and Cheng Qi experienced a peculiar sensation. After lying there for a while, he felt a slight itch and cautiously extended a finger to touch Li Tianyan’s body, confirming the other person’s presence, Cheng Qi eventually drifted into a contented sleep.
As the rhythmic sound of even breathing filled the air, Li Tianyan opened his eyes, catching a glimpse of Cheng Qi’s fingertips poking his arm. He smiled helplessly but opted not to withdraw his arm.
.
Yin Zhong bid farewell to Cheng Qi the next day, learning that Uncle Yin had fulfilled his wish and was going to be reincarnated. Cheng Qi was also happy for him. Without saying a word, he released the ghost contract on Yin Zhong’s soul, letting him go.
After that day, both Xiao Liu and Li Wu kept silent about what happened that night. Tan Eyu, after receiving the Soul Cultivation Record given by Li Tianyan, often hid in her room to practice, rarely wandering around like before. The villa seed to have returned to its usual peaceful days, but sothing seed to be changing quietly.
On this day, Li Wu declined the guests at the gate of the villa but t a woman who had just gotten off the carriage and wanted to break in. Li Wu quickly stepped forward, stopping the woman. “The master of our villa doesn’t receive visitors. Please go back, madam.”
“Go back? Do you know who I am? I am Cheng Qi’s biological mother, and you, an eyeless thing, have repeatedly blocked the people I sent to the door. Besides, who gave you the courage? Did that bitch Cheng Qi tell you to do this?” Madam Luo was stopped by Li Wu and imdiately pointed angrily at his nose, cursing.
The people who were turned away by Li Wu, about to leave, saw this scene and couldn’t help but stop and watch.
Li Wu, seeing the woman scolding harshly in front of others, darkened his expression. “Our young madam is still our master’s wife. Please respect yourself and don’t insult our young madam.”
“No. I will see him today, so go in and tell Cheng Qi that it would be unfilial if he doesn’t co out and invite
in today.” Madam Luo shouted confidently with her hands on her hips.
If Cheng Qi’s virtues were coupled with a reputation for unfilial piety, Li Tianyan would have to divorce him. Hmph! that little bastard wouldn’t dare to fight with her.
“The two masters of our villa are still busy at the mont, and the little one cannot co in and disturb. Madam, if you have sothing urgent to discuss with my young madam, you can ask the little one to pass the ssage. For other things, please excuse . I cannot comply.” Li Wu’s tone beca firr as the situation escalated.
