Chapter 439: So Alluring

Seeing the scene before him, Xiao Yufan’s body stiffened slightly. If his self-control had been just a little weaker, he would have pounced by now…

Jiang Rou’s current posture was extremely seductive. Her nightgown, partially slipped off, added a touch of allure to her innocence—nine out of ten men would probably be unable to resist.

“Am I beautiful?”

Where was the trace of gentleness in Jiang Rou now? She looked just like Dongfang Yanran, that little enchantress. Xiao Yufan had to admit that his desire had already been stirred.

“Beautiful…”

He replied almost unconsciously, somewhat helplessly. He could only blame this girl for being too tempting. After all, he was a normal red-blooded man; it would be strange if he had no reaction at all.

“So, what does Gege want to do now?”

Jiang Rou continued to tease him bit by bit. The blush on her face had never completely faded. She had never imagined a day would come when she would interact with a man like this. However, hearing Xiao Yufan’s words still made her extremely happy.

“Little brat, this is all your doing!”

Gradually regaining his senses, Xiao Yufan nearly lost control again. Fortunately, he wasn’t completely driven by lust, but even so, he was already on the verge of explosion. He had endured so painfully from last night until now…

“No way! I only asked Gege for a little help and wanted to chat a bit!”

Jiang Rou playfully responded. She also knew when to stop. If Xiao Yufan actually took things further at this moment, although she wouldn’t mind, there would still be an odd feeling about it.

“Are you kidding me? You expect me to believe this is just a chat after taking off your pants…”

Struggling to hold back his frustration, Xiao Yufan muttered to himself. He had been imagining how to pin this girl beneath him and properly tame her, only to be told by Jiang Rou that it was just a casual chat!

“Oh come on, are you going to help or not!”

Seeing Xiao Yufan frozen in place, Jiang Rou pouted slightly. Luckily, there was no one else around. If any normal man heard this cutesy, flirtatious voice, their body would definitely react in a very noticeable way.

“Of course I’ll help…”

Only a fool would pass up such an opportunity. He wasn’t losing anything anyway—wasn’t he just helping this girl pull up her pants? What was he going to lose? Looking at the pink temptation peeking out from under her nightgown, he could only helplessly shake his head, hoping he could restrain himself later.

As Xiao Yufan approached, Jiang Rou, who had previously been teasing him, instantly changed into a more delicate and vulnerable expression. Playful as she was, she definitely felt something different if things were to go too far.

She even dared not meet his clear gaze. Xiao Yufan finally approached, first bending down to check her ankle, confirming that she had indeed sprained it, though it didn’t seem too serious.

Fortunately, Jiang Rou was still wearing her top, so nothing was overly exposed. Yet through the thin fabric, Xiao Yufan could still feel the softness of her chest lightly brushing against him.

What made Xiao Yufan even more speechless was that through the tantalizing thong, he could see hints of dark curls and a seductive crevice formed by the tight fit…

“Damn, this mission might be sweet, but I should avoid these situations in the future!”

Xiao Yufan secretly decided that such things should happen less often, or else one day he might be consumed by desire. Luckily, after Jiang Rou left, he could always relieve some tension with Qing Luan and Tian Xuan.

Finally, in an extremely intimate position, Xiao Yufan completed this arduous task and let out a long sigh of relief.

“What? Helping me is that hard for you?”

“Miss, this isn’t help—it’s practically…”

“Practically what!” Jiang Rou wouldn’t let it go. Xiao Yufan felt a headache coming on. Was this still the gentle girl he knew? Had she really changed so much overnight?

“Practically naked temptation. Fortunately, I have enough self-control…”

“You sure about that? Just now you were probably thinking about how to pin me beneath you!”

“Spit!” Xiao Yufan had just taken a sip of water, which he immediately spat out. This girl’s words were too bold! What did she mean by pinning her beneath him? So she had been hiding her true nature all along!

“Can’t you stop thinking about such nonsense? Hurry up and go, or we’ll be late…”

This time, Xiao Yufan was completely defeated. He didn’t want to argue with Jiang Rou any further. Although he might gain some advantage, in the end, he still couldn’t beat her. “Real men don’t quarrel with women,” Xiao Yufan could only console himself like that.

“Gege, you’re so heartless! My foot is like this, and you still let me walk by myself. Carry me…”

A sly, seductive smile curved her lips as Jiang Rou naturally clung to Xiao Yufan’s body, whispering softly with sweet breath. At this moment, she once again showed her previous coquettish charm.

Feeling the softness pressing against his back, Xiao Yufan let out a comfortable hum. But soon, he noticed Jiang Rou’s body stiffen slightly.

Thus, Xiao Yufan carried Jiang Rou all the way to the airport. Although she protested endlessly, she eventually left Linjiang, as she had more matters to attend to in the capital. Xiao Yufan, on the other hand, felt completely relaxed.

Perhaps because of the impending separation, Jiang Rou had been so unrestrained in her seduction this time. Fortunately, Xiao Yufan hadn’t done anything inappropriate.

There had been quite a few events in these two days. First, Qiao Chuxi had an accident. Then Gao Hong, that idiot, had actually hired assassins to kill him—luckily, it was Dongfang Yanran who intervened.

Regarding Dongfang Yanran’s identity, Xiao Yufan had more than a few doubts. The eldest daughter of the Dongfang family being the feared Fengying Fenghuang—no one would believe such a thing if it were spoken aloud.

But Dongfang Yanran having another identity made Xiao Yufan suspect her motives for getting close to him. Was it really just because she wanted to be his woman? Xiao Yufan wasn’t arrogant enough to think he possessed such charm.

Since he couldn’t figure it out, Xiao Yufan decided not to dwell on it. The three young northern warlords were restless lately. However, since that one incident, Situ Wenchang had become much more subdued, which couldn’t help but raise Xiao Yufan’s suspicions.

The north was not like the capital—Xiao Yufan understood this clearly. Even though he had his grandfather’s protection in the north, there were still things to be cautious about. Whether it was the Bright or the Shadow factions, ultimately, every step forward depended on himself.

“The revolution is not yet complete; comrades must continue to strive!”

Sighing softly, Xiao Yufan murmured to himself. At that moment, his phone rang…
