Sweat trickled down from the corner of Shan Liancheng's eyes, landing on Yun Qixi's face, blurring her vision.

Through the blurry vision, Yun Qixi looked at the handsome, masculine, and perspiring face, he was filled with the charm of a man. Her rough, hoarse breathing was like a wave of heat, intertwining with her fiery breathing. The burning gaze locked on her, with a kind of seductive attraction.

She had no way of knowing how enchanting her large, enchanted eyes were at the moment. Under the tip of her small nose, her slightly parted red lips seemed more like a silent invitation.

"Hey, I …" "Ugh …"

The moment Yun Qixi opened her mouth, her voice became hoarse from being difficult to endure, and there was even a trace of a delicate and sexy voice that even she herself did not know. It was the softness of her voice, and the weakness of a woman she had never shown in front of anyone at this moment, that had destroyed all reason in this strong man.

As a result, Shan Liancheng's eyes darkened, and he suddenly lowered his head to swallow down all of her words.

Yun Qixi's mind was blank, and a burst of numbing electric current flowed through her entire body in an instant.

Shan Liancheng had always given her the impression of being cold, tyrannical, and unyielding. She had never thought that when doing such a thing between the two of them, his lips would be so soft.

"No." Her voice was light, as if her throat was on fire.

Feeling her body suddenly stiffen, Shan Liancheng didn't move an inch while she was holding his hand. His lips left her lips, and from such a close distance, looked at her, who seemed to be yearning but was also panicking a little.

"Sooner or later, you'll be my man. What are you afraid of?"

Yun Qixi's ears were boiling hot, her face was red to the point of being dyed, but she just held on tightly to his hand without letting go.

The atmosphere became more and more heavy, and the atmosphere became somewhat strange.

Yun Qixi suddenly felt the hand at her waist move. She tensed up and couldn't help but clench his wrist tighter.

"What's wrong?" Shan Liancheng remained silent, his tone tinged with a tinge of anger.

Yun Qixi did her best to suppress the flames of desire in her heart, she lowered her eyes and dared not look at him, and spoke with a voice as low as a mosquito.

"My aunt is here."

"Where is it?"

"Here …" Yun Qixi almost crumbled down, wanting to cry but have no tears.

Her feelings were too complicated and awkward. What did she have to say to make him understand? The ancients had their own words to express this meaning, but at this moment, her brain was short-circuited and she could not recall it no matter what.

"Do you want to wait for death?" Shan Liancheng's heavy breathing sprayed into her ear, and he really had the urge to bite her earlobe.

Yes, if they didn't use this method, wouldn't they be waiting for death?

But she remembered that the ancient books said that to men, especially men like Shan Liancheng who had been through battles for a long time, they were not afraid of the rivers of blood on the battlefield, but were extremely wary of women's meridian blood.

Yun Qixi racked her brains to think of what those two words were.

Menstrual period? Monthly affairs? Moon red? She couldn't remember.

Suddenly, a bright light shone from behind them, Shan Liancheng raised his head, and his pupils contracted suddenly.

Seeing Shan Liancheng's expression, Yun Qixi had a bad premonition, and when she looked up, she was stunned.

The cabin was on fire!

It was truly a rainy night, and the boat was caught in a headwind.

They were still resisting the poison when the cabin caught fire. Therefore, even if they did not die from the bewitching poison, they would still be burned to death.

"This shouldn't be within the range set by your mufei, right?"

Because of a type of fear, that anxiety had lessened a little, but when he thought about their fate, Yun Qixi's voice unconsciously trembled.

Shan Liancheng frowned but did not say a word.

"You … Did you ever have sex with a woman? " Yun Qixi suddenly asked.

Shan Liancheng said with a dark face as he stared deeply at her with his dark eyes.

"No?" Yun Qixi smiled weakly, "I am still a virgin too. People say that the matters of man and woman are the happiest things in the world, isn't it too much of a pity that we died like this? "Since you're going to die anyway, you shouldn't care if it's bad luck or not, let's do it once, right?"

Shan Liancheng's frown deepened, he looked at her as though he was looking at a monster, and was a little puzzled.

That's right, how many girls in ancient times could say such shocking words? Besides, wasn't she the one who said she didn't want it?

The boat was made of wood, and with the gentle breeze of the river, it burned very fast, from the moment they discovered the fire to the moment it burst into flames, but it took only a moment for them to speak.

As Yun Qixi laid on the deck, she felt that the deck was getting hotter and hotter.

Shan Liancheng's eyes suddenly focused as he stood up and picked her up. He leapt into the air and entered the river.

And at the same time they fell into the water, Yun Qixi seemed to have heard two voices calling out "Seventy-second Night".

No, it must have been an illusion. She remembered that they were the only two on this ship.

Once she entered the water, that icy cold feeling spread from head to toe, causing Yun Qixi to be much more clear-headed. However, she felt that her hands and feet were extremely clumsy, and she was completely unable to use her water body.

Fortunately, Shan Liancheng was holding her tightly as he swam upstream.

However, Yun Qixi could feel that it was very strenuous for him to swim. After all, it was the weight of two people.

When she finally reached the surface of the water, Yun Qixi breathed in large mouthfuls of oxygen, feeling a little dazed. She thought back to how she had praised his ability to swim and found it laughable. Shan Liancheng was right. She couldn't even stand steadily anymore.

Yun Qixi saw streams of water flowing down Shan Liancheng's head nonstop, flowing into his eyes and nose, going down from her chin.

At this point in time, the two of them no longer had much of an image to speak of. She believed that she herself wasn't much better off. He was in a somewhat sorry state, but he no longer looked as lofty as before. Instead, he had gained a bit more of his affinity with the fire and smoke.

Then, she discovered that Shan Liancheng was not swimming towards the shore where they came from, but towards the other side. Yun Qixi understood his concerns, they could not be discovered.

However, she had seen it when she was daydreaming. The boat was four hundred meters away from the river bank, and it was even further from the other side. Yun Qixi was already exhausted, but she had a premonition that they wouldn't be able to reach the shore.

"You can leave on your own. Bringing me along is a burden." Yun Qixi said weakly, while trying to struggle free from his grasp.

Shan Liancheng's hand tensed up as he stared at her. The previous tender feeling he had on the boat was no longer there, he only said coldly, "Don't move."

He carried her and continued to swim, but his speed was getting slower and slower. Yun Qixi knew that what was flowing from his forehead was no longer water, but sweat.

"My cheap life is not worth dying for. You are a respected prince, a god of war with Great Swallow. Great Swallow still needs you."

Yun Qixi was caught unprepared and struggled out of's grasp.

She thought that her body would be able to swim for a while at the very least, but she didn't expect that as soon as she left his embrace, her body would fall straight down. She didn't even have the strength to twist her body.

It seemed like no matter how good the water was, drowning was still the end for someone called Yun Qixi.

In truth, what she had said just now was true, and it was only at this moment of life and death that she realized that she really did not hate him that much, and she truly did not think he deserved death. There was no other reason, it was just that he felt that good and upright people shouldn't die like this.

If she did drown, would she go back to modern times? Perhaps when he returned, he would realize that all of this was just a dream.

A pair of hands took hold of her again, and she pushed against him without strength. He held her tighter, and at the same time, his lips closed over hers, a breath of air seeped into her mouth.

The only time she had kissed him was when she had kissed him for the first time. However, the feeling his lips gave her was just too great. She had actually discovered that she really liked the taste of his lips.

She was taken out to the river again, and this time it seemed harder than before.

Yun Qixi was a little regretful that she had pushed him away earlier. Because, like this, he had wasted all of his remaining strength for nothing.

Just as they were about to reach the surface of the river, Yun Qixi felt that they were sinking bit by bit.

It was probably because his stamina had reached its limit.

However, from the beginning to the end, he didn't let go of the hand on his waist.

During the process of sinking, Yun Qixi thought of many things she regretted.

She regretted that she had not swam back to shore in the day. Wasn't his identity exposed? At most, he would just not be a Miss Er. At worst, he would just not need half of the silver. With her abilities, she would soon be able to rise again.
