229: Chapter 229 Completely Conquering White Peony

In the moment she was held by Chu Yuan, embraced tightly by the man who made her feel both disgust and affection.

She realized that a feeling called joy was gushing out from within her heart; she had never experienced such sweetness before.

Master Bai Mudan truly enjoyed this rare, never-before-experienced sensation.

She instinctively chose to follow her most primal desires, and in the depth of her emotions, she slowly closed her eyes, resting her delicate body against Chu Yuan's strong, powerful shoulders.

Of course, at this moment, Chu Yuan was merely holding Master Bai Mudan in his arms; he did not commit any inappropriate actions, nor did he have any intention to push his luck and continue taking advantage of her.

With such a cold, noble, yet domineering and tsundere woman—a combination of devil and angel, loli and mature woman—it wasn't that Chu Yuan didn't have thoughts of devouring her in one bite.

It was just that the timing wasn't right; Master Bai Mudan had only just developed a hint of affection for him. If he were to be too eager for success at this moment, it would likely backfire and make Master Bai Mudan loathe him.

Chu Yuan only had one chance; if he succeeded, this woman would follow him wholeheartedly.

Once he failed, trying to win this woman's heart again would likely be as difficult as ascending to heaven. By then, even if he managed to possess her, he would only obtain her body, not her heart.

If it really came to that point, Chu Yuan would likely have to ruthlessly destroy the flower and eliminate all potential threats.

If he could completely possess this woman, Chu Yuan did not want to give up easily on such a loli-mature woman.

At worst, after slaying the Protagonist Ye Yun in the future, he could just hide her away in a golden house and keep her.

Although Chu Yuan had such thoughts, Master Bai Mudan was simply too attractive; her skin, as delicate as congealed fat and seemingly breakable with a flick, was too wonderful.

This caused Chu Yuan, unknowingly, to have his restless hands—which had nowhere to go—become somewhat active.

"Damn pervert, if you continue to grope, I will definitely chop off your filthy hands."

Master Bai Mudan had originally been immersed in this wonderful feeling of affection while hugging Chu Yuan.

However, before long, she realized an unbearable itching sensation on her chest.

Master Bai Mudan's face flushed red instantly, and she hurriedly pushed Chu Yuan away, staring fixedly at the scoundrel before her who had taken advantage of her again.

This annoying guy truly didn't understand, and he had no intention of cherishing the fairer sex whatsoever.

She was already seriously injured and so weak that she was on the verge of collapsing.

Yet at a time like this, his mind was entirely focused on how to take advantage of her.

This scoundrel was simply rotten to the core.

"I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry. It's all because you are too beautiful, Mudan; I couldn't help myself, which is why I did such a thing."

"Mudan, you are seriously injured and weak; you really need to nourish yourself right now. I'll go to the market to buy an old hen, stew some soup for you, and help you recover." Chu Yuan apologized repeatedly.

He hadn't originally intended for that to happen; it was just that Master Bai Mudan was too attractive, causing him to lose control for a moment...

After apologizing several times, and ignoring Master Bai Mudan, who was staring at him intensely and looking as if she wanted to swallow him whole, he hurriedly opened the door and fled from the room as if his life depended on it.

When Master Bai Mudan had first arrived at his room, it was already two or three in the morning. After such a long delay, it was now six or seven in the morning.

Outside, the darkness of the sky was gradually fading. Scattered rays of sunlight fell upon the earth, illuminating the path forward.

"Stew an old hen to nourish my body."

Master Bai Mudan muttered to herself.

Watching the man's fleeing back, her pretty face unknowingly became extremely rosy again.

She was a formidable Transcendent expert; her physique and recovery ability were far superior to ordinary people.

Chu Yuan was actually using the method used for postpartum recovery in ordinary people to nourish her with an old hen.

Although this method would indeed be somewhat helpful for Master Bai Mudan's injuries.

If word of this got out—that she, Master Bai Mudan, had to rely on an old hen to nourish her body—wouldn't she be laughed at by her enemies?

Of course, at this moment, although Master Bai Mudan was somewhat disdainful of that method, she did not look down on Chu Yuan in her heart.

Chu Yuan had good intentions; he only wanted to help her recover.

Master Bai Mudan not only didn't blame him at all, but instead, she enjoyed the love and warmth that Chu Yuan had brought her.

"Considering you treat me quite well and actually know how to care for me, I will forgive you this time."

"If there is a next time, I... I will definitely bite you to death, you bad guy."

Looking toward the door, Master Bai Mudan muttered a few words to herself, then fell into a dazed state.

But by now, the man had long since disappeared, his whereabouts unknown.

Recalling the scene of his filthy hand wreaking havoc on her body—that sensation that made both her body and mind tremble—Master Bai Mudan felt both shy and angry, cursing him inwardly.

Clearly, while she was annoyed with Chu Yuan, she also harbored other strange thoughts.

Thinking of her injuries, Master Bai Mudan couldn't afford to dwell on it too much, so she quickly closed her eyes and began to recover.

...

"Silly Mudan, stop sleeping. Hurry over and eat first; only after eating will you have the strength to recover your energy."

Master Bai Mudan had fallen into meditation to recover from her injuries; unknowingly, several hours had passed.

It wasn't until she heard Chu Yuan's voice calling from not far away that she slowly opened her eyes.

"I just went to the supermarket and bought you a towel, facial cleanser, a toothbrush, toothpaste, and other daily necessities. You look haggard, and the bloodstains on your body haven't even dried yet. You should wash up quickly, then we can eat."

Chu Yuan saw Master Bai Mudan sitting quietly on the sofa, staring blankly at the fragrant food on the dining table nearby.

He then walked out of the kitchen, took off his apron, and gently but firmly pushed Master Bai Mudan toward the washroom.

"This bad guy—although his words are annoying, deep down, he really cares about me."

Master Bai Mudan was thus reluctantly pushed into the bathroom by Chu Yuan.

However, when she saw the toothpaste already squeezed onto the brush on the vanity, the warm water prepared, and even the newly bought towel that had already been washed by him,

Seeing how much he cared for her, a sweet smile unknowingly bloomed on Master Bai Mudan's beautiful face.
