Unprecedented Pill Refiner: Entitled Ninth Young Lady

Chapter 125 – Cuddling (2)


Rip…


An unusual sound softly reverberated throughout the darkened room.


At that moment, the small body being held in Ji Fengyan's chest began to stretch under the moonlight.


His clothes tore into strips under the pressure, its remnants hanging on his st.u.r.dy body.


That beautiful face that had caused Ji Fengyan to marvel at it countless times lost all of its tenderness at that point, changing into one that was as sharp as a blade with handsome and exquisite features. As his body changed, becoming tall and slender, it seized the advantage and covered the sleeping Ji Fengyan in its shadow.


Rough pants resounded throughout the silent room.


Slightly lowering his head, he glanced at his slim fingers before turning to look at the young girl who had unknowingly curled up on his chest. Within his crimson eyes, a silent storm began to brew.


The sleeping Ji Fengyan was completely unaware of all of this.


Borrowing the moonlight, he gazed at the soundly sleeping little face on his chest, his cold and rigid face softening up at the sight. Lying on the bed motionless, he hesitated for quite a while before slowing starting to sit up.


"d.a.m.ned brat, obediently go to sleep."


"……." A certain person's entire body stiffened while the small hand on his posterior felt like it was scalding iron.


That handsome and extraordinary face turned bright red.


It was unknown how long a certain person struggled with himself before giving a slight sigh and lightly grabbing onto Ji Fengyan's mischievous hand that was still holding onto his b.u.t.t and… pulling it away.


The handsome man sat on the edge of the bed as moonlight shone across his broad chest. He didn't care about the tattered rags hanging on him that couldn't hide his st.u.r.dy body, he just sat there and stared at the sleeping Ji Fengyan in a daze.


"I'll come return," the man whispered. In the instant that he was just about to stand up, he felt a slight force lightly pulling at him.


Turning around, he then found out that the edges of his clothes were actually being tightly held onto by Ji Fengyan. Although she was sleeping so soundly, she was still unwilling to let go.


Feeling a bit helpless, he glared at Ji Fengyan for a moment before his gaze couldn't help but land on those small gleaming red lips of hers.


His heart suddenly skipped a beat.


Unexpectedly, he couldn't resist, lowering his body and kissing those small lips that usually never stopped talking.


The soft and warm sensations of her lips burned him to his very soul. It was but a light peck, but it caused him to feel as if his entire body was in the middle of a blazing inferno. Feeling a bit fl.u.s.tered, he immediately stood up, his slender fingertips going to his burning lips, his crimson eyes filled with a trace of turbulence.


Seeing that Ji Fengyan still hadn't noticed anything, he awkwardly tore off the strip of cloth that was being pulled on by her before his slender body turned into a dark shadow as he fled in a panic under the moonlight…


That night, Ji Fengyan slept very soundly, however she kept feeling as if there was something that was always constantly hara.s.sing her in her slumber.


When the first light of dawn shone through the windows of the room, Ji Fengyan lazily stretched her body before opening her still rather sleepy eyes.


However…


The instant that she opened them, she was stunned.


Her own chest was empty while the only thing left in her hand was a piece of fabric.


Almost immediately, Ji Fengyan reacted. Leaping up from the bed, she quickly put on her clothes and directly walked outside the room.


"d.a.m.ned brat, couldn't you say a word when you woke up?"


Originally, Ji Fengyan thought that Liu Huo would be off about his daily business when he woke up, but after searching through the residence for almost half a day…


She couldn't find a trace of that figure that had caused her to marvel at it countless times.


A certain Bei: Ahahahahahahahahahahahaha!


Little Lunatic: Shut it!


A certain Bei: Such a pitiful little girl, there's no more tender tofu for you to eat now.


Little Lunatic: Give me back my little Liu Huo!


A certain Bei: Bwahaha! Go off to one side now, I'll be bringing my wife out to eat now while you can squat in the corner and grow a mushroom.


Little Lunatic: Get back here and finish writing for me!


A certain Bei: No, I'm hungry, I need something to eat first! If I'm not full, then how will I have the strength to work?


Chapter 126 – Running Away From Home (1)


Ling He felt that the atmosphere around the residence was just not right. Really not right!


Just three days ago, Liu Huo had mysteriously disappeared in the morning. After Ji Fengyan searched for him to no avail, the atmosphere around the residence became extremely strange. Ji Fengyan would just silently sit there in the main hall, supporting her chin with her hand while Zuo Nuo and the other guards who pa.s.sed by would all try to silently slip through. Most of the time, they were all smiles and laughter, but seeing Ji Fengyan in this unusual state caused of them to only be able to act obediently and appropriately.


After holding back for almost half the day, Zuo Nuo finally couldn't restrain himself anymore.


"Boss, what happened to our young lady? In the end, what happened to that Liu Huo kid?"


Ling He curled his lips, "No idea. For whatever reason, he's no longer here anymore, so our young lady hasn't been in a good mood lately. All of you should avoid provoking her during this time."


"Liu Huo is basically a stranger in a strange place here, so where could he have gone? Should we dispatch some people to track him down?" Zuo Nuo asked.


"I've already suggested that to our young lady, but she said that there was no need. After all… Liu Huo was somebody who we picked up along the road. We never did ask about where he lived or whether he had a family, so it could just as likely be that he missed home and went back," Ling He shook his head.


Liu Huo left too mysteriously, thus all they could do was guess.


Ji Fengyan still remained in silence, but not even a moment later, a guard came in and reported that Gong Zhengyu had come again to visit. Agreeing with a grunt, she allowed them in.


Gong Zhengyu walked into the main hall with his ever-present bright and sunny smile. He had changed his clothes today, his grey-coloured outfit being switched with a pearl-white one that set off his pure and fair face, causing it seem even clearer. As for those two black-clothed men following behind him, they were as silent as ever.


Seeing the drooping Ji Fengyan sitting there in the main hall, Gong Zhengyu couldn't help but feel a bit curious about what happened.


"Fengyan, what happened? You seem rather dispirited today."


Lifting up an eye to glance at Gong Zhengyu, she answered in a rather resentful tone, "The d.a.m.ned brat ran away from home."


"……" Gong Zhengyu was stunned for a good long while before finally managing to react and puzzle together what Ji Fengyan meant. He couldn't help but laugh, "Maybe he's just thinking about home, perhaps he might even return after a few more days."


"That would be for the best, but still, he went scampering off before it was even known whether his body had recovered or not," she said, wrinkling her nose. Everything else was fine, but her main worry was about whether his body was still okay.


Gong Zhengyu shook his head with a chuckle. Ji Fengyan current appearance really was like his mother. Since his body was constantly ill, every time he left home, she would always worry about him.


"After a few more days, our merchant group will have to head off to the next city, so I want finish everything up during these next few days," he stated, going straight to business. Taking the hint, one of the subordinate black-clothed men placed several silvery-grey scrolls in front of Ji Fengyan.


"You've already seen the Golden Silk Scroll. The things in these scrolls are only better, not worse, than those, so you can check and see if there's anything you need in them."


Ji Fengyan's mood wasn't good, nor was she in the state of mind to look over those things, so she directly called Ling He over and handed everything over to him. "We can slowly choose. I'll bring you over to look at the ores first."


"Very well," Gong Zhengyu smiled helplessly. He was also very astonished that Ji Fengyan's emotions would be so obviously influenced to such an extent.


The last time that he came here, Ling He had already brought him over to look over the storage room. This time's objective was to select the ores that he would take with him.


Once Ji Fengyan had opened the storage room's door, she just lazily pulled over a chair and sat off to the side, freely letting Gong Zhengyu and his people choose as they please.


Signalling at the two black-clothed men to begin, Gong Zhengyu also pulled over a chair and sat next to Ji Fengyan.
