Chapter 375 - 238 Will You Always Be My Nan Ji?_1
The tips of the willow leaves glistened with crystal-clear dewdrops in the early morning, as if they were about to fall but had not yet dropped.
CHIRP CHIRP...
A kingfisher peered out of its nest, noticing that last night’s torrential rain had ceased, and chirped lightly twice.
Then it flapped its wings swiftly, hurriedly skimming over the treetops, shaking off a spray of fine rain, and flew around the boat that kept swaying on the surface of the river, somewhat curiously.
Curiosity filled its avian eyes, but it was suddenly glared at by a woman propped up against the boat window, prompting it to let out a few startled cries and retreat to seek its mother.
Such a sudden movement startled Su Bei, who was behind her, and he quickly stopped.
"What’s wrong?"
Ji Nanjue was kneeling on the bed, her jade arms resting on the boat’s windowsill, her eyes looking out the window like ripples on an autumn lake.
Her ice-blue hair had already turned ink-black due to the neutralizing effect of the Supreme Yang Qi on the Supreme Yin Qi within her body.
Her upper body was clothed in Su Bei’s white shirt, which generally appeared quite tidy, except that the hem of the shirt had been pushed up around her waist.
Below that, a pair of black silk stockings had been rolled down to her knees.
Her slender calves, accentuated by the stockings hugging them, were partly visible, outlining the graceful curves of her long, jade-like legs.
Her delicate jade feet, held in Su Bei’s hands, looked light and tempting.
Hearing Su Bei’s puzzled voice, Ji Nanjue turned her head to glare at Su Bei again, huffing.
"Hurry up..."
Su Bei paused for a moment, took a deep breath. He felt underestimated as he gazed at her uplifted form (...).
"Mm... Alright."
A thin sheen of sweat glistened on Ji Nanjue’s fair skin, and she turned her head again.
Her neck flushed with a rosy tint, stunningly beautiful, but her narrow, phoenix eyes were full of embarrassment.
She extended her jade arm to press down on Su Bei’s large hand, struggling with the strange sensation in her body, and said with slightly disordered breathing,
"I meant... time needs to hurry up!"
"Not the motion."
Su Bei felt somewhat helpless and embarrassed, but how could he decide on these matters by himself?
He could still hear the irritation in the woman’s voice.
"Didn’t you say it was just a matter of balancing Yin and Yang?"
Su Bei was speechless.
Early in the morning, Ji Nanjue hadn’t yet sorted out the thoughts in her mind. She was constantly entangled and confused between her two identities: Nan Ji and Ji Nanjue.
When Su Bei asked her how she felt, her mind was all groggy. How could she possibly ponder carefully? So, she had simply blurted out a reply.
"I feel... not bad."
But Su Bei looked at her seriously, his expression devoid of any lewdness, and spoke in a very dignified manner,
"That... Miss Nan Ji."
"I think my body is still not feeling well... the balance of Yin and Yang is somewhat disordered."
Ji Nanjue was speechless.
Probably no man in this world could keep a clear state of mind while looking at Nan Ji, who was covered only by a tattered white shirt.
Especially when this woman looked at him with those slightly authoritative phoenix eyes, which seemed to carry a hint of vexation, Su Bei’s mind was filled with nothing but intrusive thoughts.
Ji Nanjue’s complexion instantly reddened as if it would bleed. Struggling with the pain, she rubbed her small feet against the bed and began to move backward.
"Impudence!"
"Rogue!"
Despite her elegant demeanor, she possessed an indescribable allure. However, Su Bei’s large hand abruptly grabbed her.
This pull inevitably brought their bodies close. As Ji Nanjue tried to straighten up, as if electrocuted, Su Bei’s other hand encircled her waist.
Ji Nanjue’s every inch of skin tensed at that moment.
Feeling her soft and slender form, this posture was arguably even more presumptuous than the previous night’s.
Even though Ji Nanjue had mentally rehearsed this scene hundreds of times, she couldn’t withstand the reality and struggled, her face flushing crimson with embarrassment.
"Do you really want my Supreme Yang Fire Poison to spread unchecked?"
"Your Supreme Yin Cold Poison is no longer an issue... but I..."
Su Bei looked at her with an aggrieved expression. He could feel her tall body writhing in his arms, rubbing against him, and she still wasn’t wearing...
"You... you let go of me first!"
"Audacity!"
"Presumptuousness!"
Ji Nanjue bit her thin lips, her phoenix eyes foggy and misty; it was hard to say whether they were more threatening or alluring.
Su Bei considered himself a gentle man. Since she was unwilling, he couldn’t insist.
He sighed softly, then let go of her and walked outside the boat, stretching a finger to catch a raindrop falling from the eaves.
He looked up, his eyes following kingfishers as they soared up to the azure sky.
Ji Nanjue had never been so close to a man before. Even with Lin Jinyu, it had merely been an act, a pretense born out of necessity.
Because of the Supreme Yin Cold Poison, her mind had indeed been clouded during the first half of the night. However, she had been absolutely clear-headed during the latter half!
Yet, the thought that it was all for the sake of detoxification made her adopt a devil-may-care attitude.
After all, if he recovered, so would she.
The Supreme Yin Qi within her had truly stabilized, just as Key Smoke had said. Neutralized by the Supreme Yang Qi, it settled within her body, and she could even feel her Spiritual Energy growing more abundant.
She understood the torment of being unable to suppress such extreme Spiritual Energy within one’s body. It was precisely because of this that, when facing Su Bei, she felt they might be kindred spirits.
During their time in Han Hai, they had enjoyed candid conversations over drinks.
Back then, she hadn’t known about Su Bei’s unique constitution, yet they had connected deeply, and his every action seemed to resonate with the deepest part of her heart.
