355: Chapter 355 Am I not beautiful?

Xun Luoyuan was stunned, but her movements didn't stop. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, "What? Am I not beautiful?"

Hearing this, Feng Ming cursed in his heart, "Beautiful, beautiful, you're the most beautiful woman in the world, alright? It's so much that I don't even want to refuse. But we can't let this fake act become real. If that happens, we're completely finished. You're a Xun Luoyuan; it's no problem for you to marry whoever you want, but I can't. If I sleep with you, it'll cost me my life."

"With me protecting you, what are you afraid of?" Xun Luoyuan said dismissively. Could she not even protect the man she had taken a fancy to?

Feng Ming waved his hands hurriedly. "I say, Xun Luoyuan, let's not be so naive. Even if you try your hardest to protect me and King Haoyue spares my life, he won't let me leave the Imperial Capital easily."

"Breaking ground on the head of Tai Sui—I've cuckolded his son; would he let me off? So, Xun Luoyuan, I beg you, can you please exercise some restraint?"

Feng Ming's tone was sincere and serious. "I have a wife—several, in fact—and one of them is already pregnant. I must go back."

"I..." As Feng Ming spoke, he saw that Xun Luoyuan had actually already climbed onto the bed. At this moment, she was staring at him with seductive eyes, her body instinctively leaning toward him.

Feng Ming was completely speechless. This drug was just too unreasonable.

"Xun Luoyuan, don't come over here. Don't force me."

However, Xun Luoyuan seemed not to hear him. Seeing this, Feng Ming grew anxious and immediately slammed his head against the wall in front of him.

Then he pretended to faint. There was no other way; she was a Xun Luoyuan, and he didn't dare knock her out. He could only pretend to be unconscious to discourage her.

He didn't believe that even if he was unconscious, the Xun Luoyuan would still force herself on him.

Unfortunately, Feng Ming had underestimated the potency of the drug. Even though he was feigning unconsciousness, the Xun Luoyuan still approached, and a pleasant feminine fragrance wafted into his nostrils.

In the next second, Feng Ming felt two incredibly soft palms cup his cheeks, followed by his lips being kissed.

Feng Ming was so startled he quickly opened his eyes. Holy crap, the Xun Luoyuan was actually serious. This was going to cost his entire clan their lives.

At this moment, Feng Ming was almost at the brink of collapse; his rationality was nearly submerged.

But thinking of Jiang Shuwan, who was still waiting for him to return home, the last shred of reason in Feng Ming's heart told him that he absolutely could not do this.

Once he did such a thing, he would never have the chance to see Shuwan and his unborn child again in this life.

Regaining some rationality, Feng Ming hurriedly pushed Xun Luoyuan away. Seeing that she had completely lost her mind, Feng Ming was no longer afraid of being held accountable. As long as he didn't die, he would still have a chance to reunite with Shuwan.

"Xun Luoyuan! Forgive my offense!"

After saying that, Feng Ming grabbed the Xun Luoyuan's head and slammed it against the wall with a "thud."

A Xun Luoyuan who had lost her mind was no different from an ordinary person. Completely controlled by desire, she had no ability to fight back.

With this impact, Xun Luoyuan fainted on the spot. To be safe and fearing he wouldn't be able to hold back and might do something out of line to the unconscious Xun Luoyuan, Feng Ming simply slammed his own head against the wall as well.

In the next second, Feng Ming's vision went black, and he passed out.

No matter how strong the drug's effect was, it couldn't make an unconscious person do something they shouldn't, right?

Feng Ming didn't know how long he had slept. He slowly woke up amidst a violent shaking. Moreover, after this bout of unconsciousness, the drug's effect had worn off, and Feng Ming regained his rationality.

At this moment, he only felt a sharp pain in his head, but he quickly suppressed it with his Spiritual Qi. Looking up and seeing the person shaking him, Feng Ming was startled. It was actually Xun Luoyuan?

Feng Ming instinctively crossed his arms over his chest and backed away slightly. "Xun Luoyuan, you didn't..."

At this time, Xun Luoyuan's eyes were clear. Seeing Feng Ming like this, she said irritably, "Don't worry, this Xun Luoyuan is perfectly sober."

Seeing the bruise on the Xun Luoyuan's head that was almost identical to his own, Feng Ming felt a bit embarrassed.

"Um, Xun Luoyuan, I'm sorry. The drug was too strong, and you couldn't quite resist it. This was a last resort, something I had to do. Please don't take offense."

Hearing this, Xun Luoyuan smiled and said, "You're a real man; I won't blame you. Besides, now is not the time to talk about this. Take a look outside."

Feng Ming was stunned. Only then did he notice that it was already light out, and even the Sealing Grand Formation that Xun Luoyuan had set up last night was gone.

When he spread his Divine Sense out to check the situation outside, he was instantly dumbfounded.

Under the coverage of his Divine Sense, he could feel that the outside was densely packed with people, and one of them even faintly exuded a kingly aura.

"Could it be that that person has come as well?"

While speaking, Feng Ming hurriedly looked at Xun Luoyuan.

Xun Luoyuan nodded and answered in a low voice, "That's right, King Haoyue is here!"

Although Feng Ming had guessed it, getting the definitive answer still left him speechless with shock.

After all, this situation was truly beyond his imagination. Feng Ming quickly checked his body. Fortunately, the medicinal properties were still there, which meant that after they fainted, nothing out of line had happened.

This also proved that the two of them were innocent. Thinking of this, Feng Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This way, he had nothing to fear.

Even if King Haoyue had come, since he hadn't done anything wrong, the King couldn't frame him in front of so many people.

Of course, if the King really was unreasonable, there was nothing Feng Ming could do but accept his fate!

After all, if King Haoyue was unreasonable, what could anyone do!

Even though he was a man with a System, it was useless at this time. At the very least, he was currently no match for King Haoyue, even if he used secret techniques.

So, Feng Ming was gambling—gambling that King Haoyue was reasonable. After all, if he weren't, he wouldn't be waiting outside now; he would have killed him in a fit of rage.

From this point, Feng Ming concluded that there was still a chance today! "Since you're both awake, hurry up and come out!"

The voice of Deputy Commander Yang Zhen rang out from outside. Hearing this, Xun Luoyuan glanced at Feng Ming, who patted Xun Luoyuan's shoulder.

He seemed to be saying, "Don't worry! There's a turning point in this situation!"

The two of them walked toward the door one after the other. When they opened the door, Feng Ming realized how big of a scene this had become.

Basically everyone who had attended the Celebratory Banquet yesterday was present. Lu Qianqian and Zhang Bai were naturally among the crowd.

When Lu Qianqian saw him, her face was filled with worry, clearly concerned for his safety. On the contrary, Zhang Bai looked furious when he saw Feng Ming appear.

He was clearly angry that Feng Ming had been with the Xun Luoyuan last night. After all, he had said he liked the Xun Luoyuan, and Feng Ming had even righteously said he would help him, yet he ended up sleeping with the Xun Luoyuan.

Feng Ming scratched his head awkwardly and hurriedly explained to everyone, "Everyone, don't misunderstand. Nothing happened between the Xun Luoyuan and me. It's all a misunderstanding."

As Feng Ming was speaking, Yang Zhen spoke up.

"Misunderstanding? You didn't return all night and stayed in the same room as the Xun Luoyuan. When I arrived this morning, I even discovered a Sealing Grand Formation. And you say this is a misunderstanding? Or are you treating us all like fools?"

Hearing this, the crowd also began to whisper among themselves. "How ridiculous. A man and a woman alone in a room for a whole night, and he says they did nothing? Is that even possible?"

"It's possible. As long as Feng Ming isn't a man, I'll believe they did nothing. But to dare lie in the presence of Your Majesty, Feng Ming is truly audacious."

"..."
