Chapter 118: You and my sister? Clean and upright! The map that appeared behind!
Lady Mingzhu’s sleeping quarters.
Lady Mingzhu, who had been nestling like a rabbit for half a day, finally slowly lay down.
She looked at the moonlight outside the window and calculated the time.
According to her understanding of Li Mo, it should be almost time to retreat now.
She squinted her narrow eyes and smiled triumphantly.
So, how is it?
You can’t help but stay there after you leave, right?
Everything indeed went as I expected!
With Humeiren’s looks, the master would definitely like it. Not coming back for so long must mean he’s very satisfied, right? It wasn’t in vain for me to put in so much effort!
The flowers given to Humeiren are ordinary flowers, and the sachets given to Li Mo are also ordinary sachets.
But if the two are put together, it’s extraordinary!
The flower is like a lock, and the sachet is the key.
When the two meet, it can release the most sincere desire in one’s heart.
When Li Mo left, the flowers should have withered.
But it doesn’t matter, Humeiren only needs to smell the fragrance of the flowers.
With her seductive appearance, even immortals can’t resist!
If it weren’t for the sachet given by Lady Mingzhu, Humeiren would at most feel a little bored and restless.
But with the sachet, it’s different.
It will create a strong attachment to each other, falling deeply into fascination.
Lady Mingzhu lay in the bed smiling like a weasel who stole a chicken.
It seems that helping Li Mo win over Humeiren is even happier than gaining mountains of gold and silver by herself!
Mission accomplished!
Finally, I can sleep peacefully!
Lady Mingzhu curled her lips and carefully turned over in bed.
But suddenly, her hand touching the edge of the bed touched something bulging.
She hesitantly touched it.
Did the master leave something here?
As she touched it, she felt something was wrong.
This thing feels familiar!
Lady Mingzhu brought the palm-sized thing to her eyes and widened them in shock!
“This…”
“A sachet?”
“Didn’t the master take it away? How could it be here?”
She was shocked and sat up suddenly.
As a result, she slumped back down again with an ow.
Covering her behind with one hand and grasping the sachet with the other, she stared blankly!
*
The peach-colored canopy fluttered around the bed like a mist. Gradually, the swinging canopy stopped and quietly hung around the edge of the bed.
After a long time, a voice gently sounded inside the bed canopy.
“It’s late, I…” (Li Mo)
Suddenly, the words stopped abruptly.
Then came a bone-meltingly soft voice.
“Don’t speak, stay with me a little longer, okay?” (Humeiren)
Humeiren, with her fair and tender jade fingers, gently placed them on Li Mo’s lips, interrupting his words.
“Okay.”
Li Mo didn’t hesitate, holding her soft little hand and gently caressing it.
The skin on the back of the hand was delicate and smooth.
The slender fingers were as tender as jade shoots.
The fox-like narrow, slightly raised seductive eyes, the densely curved eyelashes gently trembled.
Humeiren, slowly opened her eyes.
The mist in her eyes seemed to overflow like a full pool about to spill over.
“You, you’re really not polite.” (Humeiren)
She slightly raised her head, looking up at Li Mo’s cheek.
“I was joking, why did you take it seriously?” (Humeiren)
The smile at the corner of her mouth was as charming as the peach blossoms in March.
There was a hint of coquetry in her tone, as she spoke with a hint of petulance.
With a faint smile, Li Mo lowered his head and pressed his lips against her smooth forehead.
“You’ve already kissed me, are you satisfied just to watch me flee like that?” (Li Mo)
Humeiren squinted her eyes and smiled foolishly.
“I originally wanted to see what you would look like running away, but I didn’t expect you to be so brave.” (Humeiren)
“I am a concubine, aren’t you afraid?” (Humeiren)
“If someone suddenly broke in just now, both of us would have been in big trouble.” (Humeiren)
These words sounded like an afterthought.
But her tone showed no sign of regret.
Li Mo wasn’t afraid of anyone breaking in.
His consciousness was enough to cover the entire palace where Humeiren was, and he could know if the palace maids outside took a step.
“With me here, there’s no need to worry.”
“Madam… Well, your title as a concubine seems a bit inappropriate.”
Li Mo hugged the delicate and boneless Humeiren, implying something.
Now he knew the answer.
The Emperor of Han is a pitiful person.
Not only does he have to perform a one-man show for Lady Mingzhu, but also for Humeiren.
Both concubines are stunningly beautiful, but they both toyed with him.
After raising these two canaries for so long, Li Mo cleaned them up one by one after they entered the cage.
“That doesn’t cheapen my good sir, why does it feel like you’re taking advantage of the situation and acting coy?”
Humeiren had a cheerful personality.
She playfully poked Li Mo’s nose a few times, openly and boldly.
Then she teased, “After finding out I could use aphrodisiacs last time, were you plotting against me?”
Li Mo neither confirmed nor denied, flattering, “With such a beautiful and charming princess, who wouldn’t be tempted?”
“If I’m plotting against you, doesn’t it mean you’re charming?”
Lady Mingzhu was not annoyed but rather pleased, pointing at his lips and smiling, “Sir, your words are truly sweet, how many girls have you fooled?”
Li Mo furrowed his brows.
Humeiren then smoothed his brow, thinking he suddenly remembered something important.
“What’s wrong?”
But Li Mo smiled and said, “Fooled too many to count.”
Humeiren was momentarily stunned before being teased into laughter in his arms.
A smile that could charm a hundred beauties!
The atmosphere in the canopy suddenly became enchanting.
After a moment, Humeiren stopped laughing.
Suddenly, she sat up.
Her silky smooth hair draped diagonally across her side, exuding a charming laziness.
She stared at Li Mo without blinking, slowly asking, “You and my sister…”
Before she could finish, Li Mo knew what she wanted to ask.
He directly said, “Me and your sister are clean and upright!”
Humeiren seemed incredulous.
“Really?”
Li Mo firmly affirmed, “Of course it’s true.”
Since there was nothing between them, he said it with confidence!
Hu, the beauty, was amused by his serious attitude.
“I didn’t say anything. Whether it’s true or not, it’s all the same.”
She snuggled back into Li Mo’s embrace, found a comfortable position, and joked, “But why are you so nervous? Are you feeling guilty?”
Li Mo pursed his lips.
You don’t believe the truth, but you believe the lie.
Enough of this!
Let’s break up!
“I’m upright and not afraid of shadows. Do you want to sleep for a while? I’ll keep you company.”
If he continued to linger with her like this, even if there was nothing, she would say something before she would be satisfied.
Humeiren let out a shallow yawn, feeling really sleepy.
She had wanted to sleep earlier.
But for some reason, she couldn’t fall asleep.
But after that… now she could almost fall asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.
And leaning against him made her feel particularly at ease.
She rubbed against Li Mo’s body and murmured, “Then stay with me for a while, and if I fall asleep, you can leave.”
Li Mo lightly agreed.
He was about to help her pull up the fallen blanket when his attention was suddenly drawn to her snow-white jade back.
Li Mo’s perception was comprehensive.
So even when facing someone, he could perceive what was happening behind them.
Humeiren had a slender figure, her shoulders were sharp.
Her jade back was as soft and flawless as a piece of white jade.
But now!
A complex web of lines appeared on this fair jade back.
Li Mo frowned.
There weren’t any when he helped her undo her sleeping gown earlier, could they have been caused by the blanket?
Impossible!
The blanket Humeiren used was soft and comfortable.
Even the weight of two people couldn’t have left such obvious marks on her back.
After touching it with his fingers, Li Mo became more certain of his thoughts!
The back was still smooth, without any unevenness.
“Itchy~”
Humeiren was tickled by his fingers and arched her shoulders, murmuring in a daze.
“There’s something on your back.”
Li Mo withdrew his hand and said softly.
“Hmm? What’s on my back?”
Humeiren slowly opened her drowsy eyes and groped behind her in confusion.
“Don’t move, let me take another look.”
Li Mo held her slender wrist.
He pulled the blanket down again.
His consciousness covered her back, carefully observing.
Humeiren chuckled softly, touched his face, and said softly, “Can you see it?”
“Of course, even clearer than with eyes.”
Li Mo answered as he observed.
Hu, the beauty, was taken aback.
Seeing his serious expression, it seemed like he wasn’t joking.
“How many fingers?”
She extended a fair finger.
Li Mo casually replied, “One.”
“And now?”
Humeiren extended two more fingers and asked.
“Three.”
Now Hu’s expression became interesting.
“And like this?”
She hid her hand behind her back again, staring at Li Mo eagerly.
“A fist, do you believe me now?”
Li Mo took out her hidden hand and covered her small pink fist with his big hand.
Humeiren widened her eyes in disbelief and said incredulously, “You can really see it? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
Li Mo was speechless.
He clearly said it, but she didn’t believe it!
“I can perceive it, the effect is stronger than seeing.”
Humeiren cupped his face affectionately and kissed him, eagerly asking, “So can you see what I look like?”
Women seem to care about this.
Both Jing Ni and Sister Zi asked the same thing when they found out.
Women as beautiful as them naturally hope to present themselves perfectly in front of their beloved.
Li Mo pinched her nose and indulged, “Of course, with a charming and enchanting appearance like yours, you’ve captivated my soul.”
Humeiren grabbed his hand and lightly bit it, coquettishly saying, “I just want to captivate you, so that you won’t want to go to Lady Mingzhu’s palace in the future.”
Li Mo was about to reply when he was surprised to see the complex marks on her back slowly disappearing.
The previously prominent red lines gradually faded away.
“How did this happen?”
Humeiren couldn’t see her own back, but from his tone, she knew he must have found something again.
“What’s wrong? What’s on my back?”
Li Mo contemplated for a moment and said, “It looks like… a map.”
The marks that appeared on her back just now weren’t large, only covering the central area.
The winding and twisting lines, with some markings in places, looked very much like a map.
“A map? Then take a closer look and see where it’s from.”
Humeiren sat up from the bed.
She gathered her long green hair in front of her, turned around with her back to Li Mo.
So he could examine it more carefully.
Li Mo shook his head lightly, “It’s already disappeared.”
Humeiren turned her head, puzzled, “How could it disappear? How did it appear just now?”
This thing must have appeared just now.
Otherwise, the palace maids who usually assist her in bathing would have noticed it long ago.
Li Mo also felt puzzled.
A map suddenly appearing on Hu’s back was strange enough, but it also appeared and disappeared intermittently.
What’s more, before he could examine it closely, it disappeared.
What were the triggering conditions and reasons for its disappearance?
After thinking for a while, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
He grabbed Hu, who was twisting her neck trying to look at her back, and asked, “How do you feel now?”
“I don’t feel anything, it’s neither painful nor itchy.”
Li Mo shook his head and gently caressed her soft and slender waist with his palm.
“I mean… your body, how do you feel?”
Humeiren immediately understood and hugged his neck with a silk-like gaze, “Well, do you want…”
Li Mo kissed her seductive lips.
“Then work a little harder and get some paper and pen. I’ll draw that map down.”
Humeiren looked at him in surprise, “Do you know how it appeared?”
Li Mo raised an eyebrow mysteriously, “It should be about right. Try it, and you’ll know.”
Trying it out would prove that his guess was correct!
One hour later.
Li Mo laid out the silk cloth that had been drawn according to Hu’s back on the bed and carefully examined it.
Humeiren lay beside him, half asleep.
Her small mouth opened and closed, like a fish out of water.
“Is it done… have you finished drawing it?” After a long while, she gradually woke up and lazily asked.
“Yeah, it’s all drawn. You should rest first,” Li Mo touched her sweaty temple affectionately.
Actually, the appearance of this map wasn’t that mysterious.
The pattern seemed to be tattooed in a special way, and it would only show up after the blood boiled.
Obviously, taking a bath wouldn’t achieve this effect.
So there was only one way…
Poor Hu!
Hearing him say it was drawn, Humeiren breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, if he had said to redraw it, she would really have cried!
After resting for a while, she leaned softly into Li Mo’s arms.
Picking up the silk cloth, she asked, “Is this it? It really seems like a map. How did this thing end up on my back?”
After drawing it on the cloth, she finally knew what the pattern on her back was.
Her fair fingers traced the lines drawn on the cloth, and suddenly she exclaimed in surprise.
“Huh, this place seems familiar.”
The silk cloth depicted mountains and hills.
Although it was abstract, if these were viewed as markings on a map, it became clear again.
Li Mo turned his head to face her and asked, “Familiar? Where?”
Humeiren looked around, furrowing her eyebrows slowly.
With a touch of frustration, she said, “It looks familiar, but I can’t tell where exactly.”
It was a kind of ambiguous feeling.
She felt familiar looking at it, but couldn’t recall exactly where it was.
She sighed, “If only there were some reference points, maybe I could figure it out.”
“Reference points…”
Li Mo’s finger traced along the edge of the silk cloth and said, “Look here, isn’t the route suddenly interrupted?”
After he said that, Humeiren noticed it.
She tapped her head lightly, “Yes, it feels like it’s abrupt, with no continuity.”
“Ah, I remember!”
Humeiren suddenly brightened up and exclaimed in surprise.
“Consort, consort, what’s wrong with you?”
This directly alarmed the palace maids outside, and inquiries came immediately.
Humeiren covered her mouth as if she had done something wrong, then quickly lowered her hand and shouted outside, “It’s nothing, I just had a nightmare. I’ll sleep a bit longer.”
The palace maids outside believed her, so they didn’t dare to enter without her orders.
“That scared me.”
Humeiren patted her pounding heart and stuck out her tongue playfully.
Li Mo couldn’t help but chuckle and pulled her into his arms to comfort her, “What did our smart consort think of? Why are you so excited?”
Hu, with a glint of mischief in her endlessly charming eyes, replied smugly, “I know why this map is like this, because it’s only half of it.”
“Half? Yeah, it does seem like that.”
Li Mo nodded in agreement.
Humeiren looked at him, pointed to her tender lips, and coquettishly said, “I also know where the other half is. Kiss me, and I’ll tell you.”
Li Mo gave her a firm kiss.
Humeiren responded with satisfaction, squinting her eyes contentedly at him.
After they separated, she took a deep breath.
Looking at him with playful eyes, she slowly said, “It’s with my sister!”
