"Ao, I can see that you're trying to fight  back your desire. Can't you just let loose for once?"

"I.. don't want to hurt you." Seeing Xu Jiaqi hurting, especially if it's caused by him, was the subject of his worst nightmares.

"Don't worry about that." Xu Jiaqi chuckled lowly. "Rui, do I have to spell it out for you?"

After some trials and errors with men like Qin Zicheng, Zenith, and now Xie Yongrui, Xu Jiaqi was finally able to adjust to their personalities. She learned that these men were all actually wolves waiting to devour her, but they just kept holding back because their love towards her surpassed all of their other worldly desires.

Naturally, as a good lady, she should begin to tease and provoke them even more in each world~

Xu Jiaqi tickled Xie Yongrui's neck area, getting closer and placing some fluttery kisses on him to further their advances.

"..No." Xie Yongrui answered, giving in to the overwhelming situation and willingly kissing Xu Jiaqi. His momentum was so high that Xu Jiaqi felt like he wanted to engulf her entire body and become one with her with his every movement. So vigorous and lively.

Today's affairs- the setting was a bit bizarre, because they had just been talking about her father's death before suddenly jumping into this kind of thing. However, the woman had a look in her eyes that made it impossible for him to back out, provoked him to the highest degree to which he ended up succumbing to.

Heavy breaths and muffled moans took over the room as not a single word was spoken. Their bodies were let loose, moving to the rhythm of their own desires and not giving a single damn on what was going on with the rest of the world.

They intertwined with each other, entangling themselves in messy positions. Sweat continued to pour out and glisten their bodies as they played around through the night.

The curtains were drawn, and the next thing they knew, they were well rested and woke up to each other's faces. A cold breeze of air attacked them, as they were completely unclothed from top to bottom.

"Good morning, Rui. Did you have a good sleep?" Xu Jiaqi was not at all embarrassed, as she pulled Xie Yongrui in for a lovely cuddle right off the bat, not giving Xie Yongrui a chance to breathe.

Xu Jiaqi's alluring beauty made Xie Yongrui swallow, turning his head away in case something dangerous was provoked one more time. He took in a sharp gasp of air, but it seems like his skills weren't as proficient in controlling his little brother.

A tent rose from his tense body, the tip of the aroused member poking against Xu Jiaqi's supple thighs.

"..Oh? This is interesting.. Rui, I didn't think that you were this sensitive." Xu Jiaqi laughed as she took off the covers that hid their bodies. A dazzling sight was exposed before her eyes, as Xie Yongrui's length was now charged with full vitality, raging to prove its greatness.

"Shall I help you?" Xu Jiaqi giggled, lingering her touches around his nether region.

That was it. The push that threw all of his safety measures away. Xu Jiaqi just always knew which buttons she had to push to make Xie Yongrui's mind go crazy, and this time was not an exception.

His final straw broke, and he leaned back into their bed, letting Xu Jiaqi administer her skills towards his hard member.

"..Please take care of me." Xie Yongrui relented.

Xu Jiaqi did her magic, and the two came out of the room looking very pleased after a long session of questionable deeds followed by a thorough cleanup.

Thank goodness they rented quite the expensive place, so they knew that the room was going to be properly cleaned up. Even so, they made sure that the place didn't have any traces of the late night exercises and the sheets were all rinsed.

Mornings were usually not his best time of the day, but thanks to this memorable experience brought by yours truly, he felt like he would be looking forward to every single morning he spent with her.

There was no helping it. With every single extra glance he directed towards Xu Jiaqi, he could feel himself falling even deeper into the hell hole that is the unrequited love that Xu Jiaqi had warned him from the beginning.

As they stepped out of the door, they went downstairs only to find He Yiyuan, who had a judging gaze directed towards them.

Immediately, Xu Jiaqi connected the pieces as she remembered that a certain King of Xi's room was right beside their own, and that the walls in these times were not the best in terms of soundproofing qualities.

'System, what are the chances that He Yiyuan heard e~verything from start to finish?'

[100%. You two were too brazen that you didn't even notice that I came out for a few seconds to check if you two were over, only to get my eyes tarnished..!]

'..Oh.'

Xu Jiaqi indeed wasn't able to notice the System's presence in the slightest as they did it.

Her attention was placed back to He Yiyuan as the two of them got closer to the man leaning against the door frame.

"Hey, it's not like I wanted to eavesdrop or anything, but I wanted to tell you some information about our departure.. And accidentally overheard some interesting noises from you guys' room. I'm happy for you, but next time, could you please keep it down?" He Yiyuan decided to tease the pair as he walked away with a big smile without leaving the couple any room at explaining their situation.

The two who were left behind looked at each other. Xu Jiaqi already expected this kind of response, so she wasn't affected. She was fully aware of what she could get into when she decided to entice him in a semi-public place like this, so she didn't even freak out.

"...Yeah, maybe that was a bad move after all." Xie Yongrui said, looking dejected and covering his face with his palm while sighing.

"Ao? Don't you think it's somewhat thrilling?" Xu Jiaqi smirked, her itchy hand playfully grabbing Xie Yongrui's butt cheek and squeezing it tight, giving the man a run for his life as he freaked out and jumped away from her grip.

"No!" Xie Yongrui objected, no longer daring to stand beside Xu Jiaqi in fear of what she could do.

System: Hey, old lady, you're under arrest for too much harassment!

Xu Jiaqi: He's too cute, I can't help but keep teasing him~

System: Kindly stop before I resign from my System position.

Clearly, Xu Jiaqi discovered a new side to herself that not even her could describe. One that takes pleasure in executing sadistic tendencies.

The play time had to end, just like everything else that would eventually cease to exist. 

The next thing that they had to do was actually getting to work.

They had many things that they needed to accomplish, and yet time was constantly chasing them. The longer they waited, the Empire would get to stabilize themselves and control their affairs.

Thus, they made a temporary alliance between all of the kingdoms, including Xian Ruo, in order to take over the Empire's rule and make it their own.

Doing this required the cooperation of talented individuals from each kingdom, which had now assembled in a single room. The atmosphere was serious and tense. They proceeded to discuss their plans from now on, with each individual giving their own takes and proposals.

This was a plan with high risk, but an extremely high return. Their solace could be found in the fact that there was a clear agreement within all individuals present today, and many others sitting back in their country. That the current Empire was not the best thing, nor was it suitable to be called the one and only Empire anymore.

This prompted them to have a smooth and unrestrained discussion when talking about their plans to bring down the Empire.

"So, I assume that everyone gathered here today is already roughly aware of what we are going to do from now on, respectively." Xu Jiaqi spoke, mid way in the conversation. "I expect you all to continue forth with the decisions that we have come to today."

Xu Jiaqi was very professional as she glanced over all of the members' behavior, trying to pick out any sort of discrepancy.

Although they didn't manage to reel in the actual royalties of each kingdom for fear that they wouldn't completely cooperate with their ideas, Xian Ruo and the Land of Xi's official rulers coming together was the perfect advertisement to pull in bigshots from the other kingdoms.

Those who were here right now were masters at their own fields, ones that could shake the world's balance if they truly wished for it to happen.

The players were all set. Their goal was clear.. Their vision was straight, and they only had to march forward like this.
