Chapter 36 must not be known to a third person.
I blinked hard, and it seemed like there was a person in front of me wearing a red robe, with long black hair, standing straight.
He seemed to be unable to bear the oppression any longer and came out for some fresh air, never expecting to run into her here.
Just then, a voice came from behind: "Princess? Princess, where are you? Many clans still want to offer you a toast."
Zhongli Yueluo sighed and rolled her eyes.
She walked a few steps to Su Fengjun, her eyes veiled with a misty haze.
She stumbled unsteadily into his arms: "Quick, take me away, I'm about to throw up from drinking."
He was somewhat at a loss when he saw Zhongli Yueluo suddenly bump into his arms.
His face was cold, his brows furrowed, as he looked at the girl in his arms.
But the strong smell of alcohol couldn't mask the strange sweetness emanating from her.
He seemed at a loss, and gently patted her back with one hand: "Princess?"
She swallowed hard. "You should be able to become invisible right now. At least take me away from here first."
"They caught me and took me back; I'm bound to get another beating." She let out a burp, her face flushed.
He thought for two seconds, watching as more and more people came looking for Zhongli Yueluo.
He then carried her across the corridor and disappeared into the night.
But he wasn't familiar with the courtyard, so he just randomly landed on a rooftop where he felt he couldn't hear any noise.
Zhongli Yueluo patted her chest, trying to calm the nausea.
He looked up at Su Fengjun's profile, his fingers tracing the outline of his jawbone, his eyes somewhat unfocused.
Su Fengjun's eyes showed disgust. He grabbed her small hand and didn't even look at her.
Zhongli Yueluo followed his gaze to the sky, where a new moon hung.
His silhouette appeared softer and less angular in the moonlight.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her black hair danced in the wind.
Her hand was a little sore from being squeezed, and she uttered a single word with a thick nasal tone: "It hurts."
Su Fengjun then realized how strong his grip was, leaving several of her knuckles red.
He turned his head and saw her crescent-shaped eyebrows furrowed, her little face extremely aggrieved, and he didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.
"I'm sorry." He said it coldly, colder than the late spring wind blowing from the roof.
Zhongli Yueluo shivered and shrank closer to him.
One hand gripped his belt tightly, waves of nausea churning within her, but she endured it!
She pulled him down to sit, and he sat upright as if he were a piece of wood.
Zhongli Yueluo gently brushed the stray hairs that were fluttering in the wind behind his ears.
He gave her another cold look.
"Lord Su Feng, I have something to ask you."
"Princess, please speak."
"That day, was it you who abducted the woman from Taiyuan Prison?"
His eyes also held a cold glint, making it impossible for him to deny it.
She seemed to have a mind of her own; he wanted to lie, but couldn't bring himself to say it.
I thought she would say something flirtatious as a prelude, but to my surprise, she went straight to the point.
There was a hint of danger in his eyes, and even his hands were radiating a faint chill.
Tears suddenly welled up in Zhongli Yueluo's eyes. He had never seen a girl cry before and didn't know what to do in this situation.
"Now that we are married, even if it's a contractual arrangement, you are still my consort." She tilted her head to look at him.
"I hope you will tell me the truth: that woman is very important to me."
He clenched his fists, considered for a long time, and then, as a gust of cold wind blew past, he answered, "Yes."
"That's good. I believe your Wind Spirit Ghost Clan won't harm her." She felt much relieved when she saw that he answered truthfully.
Although I already knew in my heart, I still wanted to hear the answer from him in person.
“Princess, I also have a question to ask you.” He stared at her rosy, fleshy face, his heart beating faster.
"explain."
"Who is she to you?"
"My mother, but only you know about this. You can't tell anyone, including your younger brother Su Fengling!"
Her eyes held a firm resolve that brooked no refusal.
Their guess was right. So she also has the bloodline of the Blood Demon. He really didn't want such a threat to survive!
The cold air on his hands froze, but she suddenly took his arm.
She slowly rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes: "Let me lean on you for a while, I feel uncomfortable."
The chill was suddenly interrupted, and then slowly dissipated from between the palms.
He gritted his teeth. Since they were all under the same roof now, he figured he might as well observe her a bit more; maybe she wouldn't pose a threat to them.
After waiting quietly for a while, Zhongli Yueluo was shivering from the cold.
She had sobered up a bit; she had only asked those questions impulsively because of the alcohol.
Now they're starting to regret it, since they've only just met.
If they know that secret, then her existence is a threat to them.
If he had made a move just now, she would have had no chance of escape!
She blinked again, feeling a little guilty, and looked at his cold, handsome face.
She touched his eyebrows with her fingers: "Don't always frown, it doesn't look good."
He was preoccupied with what had just happened and didn't even notice her fingers about to touch him.
When he came to his senses, he shuddered and instinctively leaned to the side.
Her fingers landed on his cold lips!
His silver pupils gleamed in the moonlight, his eyes sparkling.
But feeling the coldness in her fingertips, he turned his head away.
Her hand fell down, then casually landed on her waist.
“Princess, I will take you back.”
Zhongli Yueluo chuckled: "Today is a joyous day, why don't you keep me here, but instead send me back?"
His expression remained unchanged, but the tips of his ears turned red. Zhongli Yueluo knew he was a blockhead.
She stood up with her arms outstretched, as if about to fall backward, but Su Fengjun reacted quickly and grabbed her waist with one hand.
"Princess, please don't be ridiculous!" The tone was slightly angry.
"Alright, alright, take me downstairs." Zhongli Yueluo casually put her arms around his neck.
Her eyes sparkled, and dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth as she buried her head in his chest.
He simply put his arm around her waist, keeping his eyes straight ahead, and landed on the ground in the blink of an eye.
He gently put her down, looking around with a somewhat unnatural expression.
He hated the feeling of shortness of breath and a racing heart, and wanted to leave her as soon as possible.
"Feng Jun, we must keep our secret. We can't let a third person know. If they do, I'll be in danger, and you'll be in danger too."
She squinted, a hint of cunning in her eyes.
He nodded. Even if he didn't say it, his brother was smart enough to figure it out.
He stood there motionless, but Zhongli Yueluo didn't move either.
The two remained at an impasse. Zhongli Yueluo said, "What, you still want to invite me to your room for a while?"
He shook his head, coughed twice, turned around, and took a few steps with his hands behind his back.
I didn't see a step in front of me; my feet were dangling in the air, and I was unsteady.
But he remained unfazed and disappeared into the night.
Zhongli Yueluo covered her mouth and chuckled. Turning her head, she saw Su Fengling silently appear behind her and ask, "What are you laughing at, sister?"
