Chapter 12: Drugged

Yu Jingchuan looked at the woman before him, her cheeks flushed. His sword like brows furrowed.

“Lin Yitang, what’s wrong with you?”

Lin Yitang stared blankly, her eyes wide. She shook her head, trying to regain her composure, but the burning sensation surging through her body made her succumb again.

She instinctively threw herself into the man’s arms.

“So hot, you feel so comfortable!”

Her soft, curvaceous body pressed tightly against him, igniting a fire within Yu Jingchuan.

He quickly pushed her away, his face dark. “Lin Yitang, look who you’re with. Don’t act up here!”

Their intimate actions had already attracted the attention of several people.

Being scolded like this, Lin Yitang felt wronged. Tears welled up, rolling down her cheeks, making her look pitifully helpless.

Yu Jingchuan was stunned. He realized something was wrong with Lin Yitang. Sighing helplessly, he supported her, saying, “Don’t cry. I’ll take you back.”

He scooped her up and quickly walked home.

Lin Yitang clearly had been drugged; a cold shower should help her regain consciousness.

Yu Jingchuan walked quickly, but the person in his arms was restless.

Lin Yitang’s head rested on his broad shoulder, rubbing against him constantly. Her hands freely explored his chest and abdominal muscles.

Yu Jingchuan was a normal man; he couldn’t possibly have no reaction, but he didn’t expect his self-control to be so weak in front of Lin Yitang.

Was this another one of Lin Yitang’s tricks? Was she doing this on purpose?

Because of the incident where Lin Yitang had drugged him before, Yu Jingchuan remained suspicious of her. He wondered if this was another part of her coquettish game.

Along the way, Yu Jingchuan endured both physical and mental torment. Only after returning home and placing Lin Yitang on her bed did he breathe a sigh of relief.

So hot. The burning sensation emanating from her body made Lin Yitang feel like she was about to be consumed by fire.

She instinctively tore at her clothes, removing her short-sleeved shirt, revealing her dazzlingly white skin.

Perhaps because of the drug, Lin Yitang’s skin had a faint pink hue, like fine lotus root powder jade.

The purple undergarment from yesterday was on Lin Yitang, covering her breasts, her slender waist completely exposed as she restlessly tossed and turned on the bed.

This scene almost mirrored Yu Jingchuan’s dream, but the impact of reality was even greater. He felt all the blood rush to his lower body, an uncontrollable urge.

“So uncomfortable, you feel so comfortable”

In a daze, Lin Yitang had already grabbed his hand, her body clinging to his, like a seductive Bitch, pressing against him.

Lin Yitang had completely lost her reason. She only knew that hugging Yu Jingchuan felt comfortable. Her eyes were hazy, her gaze falling on the man’s lips.

They looked delicious…

Without thinking, Lin Yitang instinctively leaned forward and kissed his lips.

Yu Jingchuan’s body instantly tensed. He felt an electric shock, making him tremble slightly.

Only when the woman, being unruly, pried open his lips and tried to continue did he wake up as if from a dream, excitedly pushing away the soft body in his arms.

“Lin Yitang!”

Yu Jingchuan shouted angrily, his entire face red, the veins on his forehead throbbing violently, as if he was trying desperately to restrain himself.

“You pushed me! You yelled at me!”

With the source of comfort gone, Lin Yitang cried in distress. Her red-rimmed eyes and disheveled hair would make anyone lose control.

Yu Jingchuan gritted his teeth, picked her up, quickly walked into the bathroom, turned on the cold water tap, and showered Lin Yitang.

The icy water fell, and Lin Yitang finally calmed down.

“Are you clear headed now?”

Yu Jingchuan looked down at the woman sitting on the floor. She was completely soaked, her clothes clinging to her body.

From his angle, he could easily see the spring scenery beneath her delicate collarbone.

The cold water constantly washing over her, Lin Yitang gradually regained consciousness, but her head ached.

She seemed to remember being drugged and then brought back by Yu Jingchuan, but the events in between were blurry; she didn’t remember anything.

“Thank you for bringing me back.”

Lin Yitang thanked him in a hoarse voice.  Luckily, she had met Yu Jingchuan; otherwise, something terrible would have happened.

“Now that you’re clear-headed, take care of yourself. In the future… don’t resort to these underhanded tactics!”

Yu Jingchuan quickly turned and left, seemingly trying to avoid her.

Lin Yitang wiped the cold water from her face, then gave a wry smile.

Yu Jingchuan probably thought she had deliberately caused this scene to cling to him.

How afraid he was of being involved with her.

A dull pain struck Lin Yitang’s heart. In her past life, she had been so blind, unable to see how deeply Yu Jingchuan disliked her.

Live and learn. This time, she would never be foolish again.

Lin Yitang closed her eyes, letting the cold water fall on her body to relieve the burning sensation.

Only when the agitation subsided did she slowly stand up.  The drug was so potent, a cold shower alone might not be enough to completely eliminate it.

Lin Yitang thought of the spring water in her space. The spring water could help the body eliminate impurities; it should also help with the effects of the drug.

With a “desperate attempt,” she entered the space, drank several mouthfuls of spring water, and took another cold shower before collapsing onto the bed and falling into a deep sleep.

Unbeknownst to her, Yu Jingchuan was also taking a cold shower. The man’s back muscles bulged, cold water flowing down his hair and muscles, gradually downwards.

Yu Jingchuan refused to look at his lower body, his eyes tightly closed, but Lin Yitang’s image kept appearing in his mind, her soft body seemingly still pressed against him.

After a long time, the man let out a rough breath, his eyes opening, still filled with desire, which filled him with inexplicable anger.

Lin Yitang’s seductive methods were indeed more skillful than before. Her mind was too deep, and he didn’t believe today’s events were a simple accident.

He should find another opportunity to talk to Lin Yitang, preferably to get her to move out as soon as possible.

As dusk fell, it was dinner time, but Lin Yitang hadn’t appeared yet, and Chu Peilan was worried.

“Yitang hasn’t come back yet?”

“She seems to have come back. I’ll go call her.”

Zhang, the housekeeper, quickly went upstairs, knocking on Lin Yitang’s door. No one answered. She tried the doorknob, went inside, and saw a figure curled up on the bed.

She quickly approached, lifting the blanket. Lin Yitang’s face was flushed, and her forehead was burning hot.

“Yitang, you have a fever! It’s very high!”

Zhang’s voice reached Yu Jingchuan, who was sitting at the dining table. He stood up instantly and ran to Lin Yitang’s room.
