109: Chapter 109 The Honest Man Goes All Out

[ So that is how it is. ]

[ Equal-level command. ]

[ You stare at the stationary shadow in the direction of the Outer Garden, your heart skipping a beat. ]

[ He did not set up a contingency plan. ]

[ From beginning to end, from the day he gave the mantra to you, he did not leave any insurance. ]

[ You originally thought that since he dared to hand over the mantra, there must be another hidden lock, some priority override mechanism you were unaware of, but there was none. ]

[ Foolish. ]

[ So foolish that for a moment, you did not know whether to be secretly pleased or to sigh. ]

[ But just knowing the commands are of equal level is not enough. ]

[ Equal-level means you can make the Puppet crash, but you cannot make it listen only to you. ]

[ As long as Wei Feisen is still by the Puppet's side, he can revoke your command and reactivate it at any time. You must completely move the Puppet away from him to a place only you can reach. ]

[ And to do that... ]

[ You take a deep breath and close your eyes. ]

[ Various plans begin to churn in your mind. ]

[ He is currently half-doubting you; asking for the Puppet directly would only alert him. ]

[ After much thought, only one path remains. ]

[ Make him hand it over willingly. ]

[ Under what circumstances would a man give his most valuable possession to a woman without hesitation? ]

[ The answer is simple. ]

[ You open your eyes. ]

[ The candlelight flickers in your pupils. ]

[ No. ]

[ You close your eyes again. ]

[ ... This is just a simulation. ]

[ Simulation, simulation, simulation. ]

[ You repeat these two words three times in your heart, as if preparing yourself. ]

[ No matter what you do in the simulation, after you wake up, you will still be yourself. ]

[ But your hands are still clenched tight. ]

[ Opposite you, Wei Feisen is holding a wine cup, watching you, his eyes filled with a hazy, passionate look from the alcohol, and a trace of suspicion because you suddenly closed your eyes and fell silent. ]

[ "What is wrong?" he asks. ]

[ You open your eyes. ]

[ Like an honest person who has decided to go all out. ]

[ You stand up, not going around the table, but directly crossing over the low desk, grabbing Wei Feisen's lapels, pulling hard, and crashing directly into his arms, then lying down. ]

[ A muffled "thud" sounds. ]

[ Wei Feisen is knocked back, his back hitting the chair hard, and he freezes completely. ]

[ The tip of his nose is filled with your faint, lingering scent of a bath; in his arms is a soft, fragrant body—the Empress of Great Li, the woman he has craved for over a decade, pursued but never obtained, the woman he has dreamed of possessing—now lying on his lap, completely defenseless. ]

[ The wine cup hits the desk with a "clink," wine splashing out and soaking his cuffs. ]

[ Your face is pressed against his chest, and through the fabric, you can feel his heartbeat suddenly accelerate. ]

[ His hands are frozen in mid-air, not knowing where to put them. ]

[ "You..." ]

[ His voice is hoarse beyond recognition. ]

[ "What are you doing?" ]

[ You cannot help but feel speechless, and your cheeks flush with a genuine heat. ]

[ What kind of situation is this? ]

[ During the first simulation, wasn't this madman arrogant and overbearing? Didn't he always grab your neck and force himself on you? Why is it that now that you have actually thrown yourself into his arms, he acts like a pure, inexperienced virgin, not knowing where to put his hands and feet? ]

[ Does he expect me to personally teach him how to be a man? ]

[ You grit your teeth, thinking that since you have come this far, you steel yourself. ]

[ You raise your hand, your fingertips hooking the collar of your cloud-mist colored dress, and pull down hard. ]

[ "Riiiip—" ]

[ The sound of tearing silk is piercingly loud in the silent side hall; a large part of the collar is ripped open, revealing vast expanses of dazzling, snow-white skin under the warm orange candlelight, with a deep cleavage faintly visible. ]

[ You tilt your head, your eyes dancing, staring into his eyes that have already begun to bloodshot, and whisper in an extremely soft, alluring voice: "Am I beautiful?" ]

[ Wei Feisen's pupils contract violently. ]

[ In an instant, the possessiveness and desire he has suppressed and twisted for over a decade erupt like a volcano. ]

[ "You brought this upon yourself." ]

[ The next second, he grips the back of your head and kisses your red lips fiercely. ]

[ Your whole body trembles violently. ]

[ His kiss is chaotic, rough, urgent, carrying a strong scent of alcohol and a reckless madness. ]

[ You close your eyes, your hands gripping the fabric on his back tightly, chanting continuously in your heart: It is just like being bitten by a dog, just pretend it is a dog bite. For the sake of cultivation, for the sake of the Dao, I must endure it! ]

[ You recite frantically in your heart. ]

[ But his hands are no longer behaving; they move up along your waistline, carrying a scorching temperature, and wherever they touch, your skin feels as if it has been scalded, breaking out in a dense layer of tremors. ]

[ "Rip!" ]

[ Another sound of tearing silk; your already thin top is violently ripped to shreds by him, the torn pieces of fabric fluttering to the ground like butterflies. ]

[ His rough, scorching hands grasp directly onto you. ]

[ "Mmm..." You let out a muffled groan, your brows furrowing in pain. ]

[ Then he lowers his head... ]

[ A strange, unprecedented shiver instantly engulfs you. The True Qi of a Great Grandmaster at the Peak seems to lose its effect at this moment, as if your bones have been removed; you cannot summon any strength in your body, and you can only lie there limply, letting him do as he pleases. ]

[ Wei Feisen's eyes have turned completely red; he pants heavily and sweeps you up into his arms. ]

[ "Th-this... this won't do here." Your remaining sanity makes you struggle slightly. "Go to the inner chamber... change places." ]

[ "Be good, listen to me." Wei Feisen's voice is hoarse beyond recognition. He completely ignores your protest, pressing you directly onto that large mahogany desk, memorials and vermilion brushes swept to the floor. ]

[ "Right here." ]

[ "Ah! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts! Wei Feisen, you beast! Be gentle!" ]

[ You let out a sharp cry of pain, physiological tears forcing their way out of the corners of your eyes. ]

[ Inside the side hall, the candlelight flickers, shadows intertwine, waves ripple, and surging storms rage. Once a madman who has been suppressed for too long is released, the destructive power is astonishing. The night wind blows the gauze curtains, but it cannot cover up the blush-inducing commotion inside the hall. ]

[ Outside the simulation. ]

[ At this moment, her cold, stunningly beautiful face is so red it looks like it might bleed. ]

[ From her neck all the way to the tips of her ears, she is as red as if she had been boiled. ]

[ She covers her face tightly with both hands, yet cannot help but open a small gap between her fingers, peeking through the gaps at the indescribable yet extremely realistic text and image prompts on the light screen. ]

[ Listening to the muffled groans filled with tears and the sound of the wooden desk being struck coming from deep within her consciousness, Lin Shuangwan feels like the top of her head is about to start smoking. ]

[ One minute later. ]

[ "..." ]

[ Five minutes later. ]

[ "No... how could I be so wanton!" ]

[ She suddenly drops her hands, rolling on the ground in shame. ]

[ "This definitely is not me! Absolutely not! I, Lin Shuangwan, am pure and immaculate, killing without blinking an eye; how could I possibly moan so... so..." ]

[ She grits her teeth, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. ]

[ "Get it away from me! This damn System, does it really have to simulate even these details so clearly?" ]

[ The System does not respond to her. ]

[ The scene continues. ]

[ Lin Shuangwan curls up into a ball, her small face burning hot, unable to resist taking another peek. ]

[ "She really went all out..." Lin Shuangwan murmurs, a strange feeling rising in her heart. ]

[ That feeling is indescribable. ]
