Chapter 286: Not a Word About Tonight

“Jing Yun, I feel sick.”

If Sheng Minglan had to put her finger on one moment when she felt most embarrassed, it would be right about now.

Her whole body was flaring up and she couldn’t bear the desire of wanting something cold, which was why she was sticking to Jing Yun as close as she could, even though her rational mind warned her not to lose her composure like that.

At the same time, Jing Yun had brought her to his old room and was about to drop her into the bathtub. However, he then decided not to throw her into ice water, and rubbed her with a chilled towel to soothe her discomfort instead. “Hold on for a bit. We could leave soon.”

“Jing Yun… don’t go.”

Sheng Minglan caught him.

Because this man was the only one whom she could count on right now.

And she feared that Grandpa Sheng would notice them, leaving everything they had done so far to waste.

“I’m not leaving. I’ll be right here with you.” Jing Yun said as he kept the wet towel over her nape, allowing her to maintain some of her rationality.

Back at the study, the drug was taking effect on the Englishman as well.

“Are you feeling unwell?” The old man immediately asked.

“A little.”

“You should rest at Minglan’s room then—you shouldn’t leave since it’s very late. I’ll have a servant help you up.”

The old man appeared composed as if he wasn’t doing something ruthless.

That being said, the Englishman didn’t have the strength to respond at all, and entered Sheng Minglan’s room with the servants’ help. He couldn’t even find the light, and immediately lunged at the bed when he vaguely caught sight of it.

At the same time, Sheng Minghui was so uncomfortable that she had torn off her own clothes, and the two eventually hit it off like oil to fire, with the room soon echoing with noises that would leave anyone blushing.

The servants, certain that it was mission accomplished quickly reported back to the old man, who looked like he had his lifelong ambition come true.

“Inform the others that they could ignore whatever sounds are coming from the room,” he then instructed the servants. “Or just keep their distance.”

“Yes, sir.”

The servants were certainly pleased that they could have an early break, although none of them knew that the one inside Sheng Minglan’s room wasn’t Sheng Minglan.

That said, it was too late even if they noticed that now…

Meanwhile, when Mama Sheng saw that the servants were all staying away from the scene of the crime, she quickly contacted Jing Yun. “I’ll keep the old man occupied now. Leave now with Fourth Sister—Sheng Xiao’s car is still waiting downstairs.”

Knowing that his chance was here, Jing Yun threw his jacket over Sheng Minglan so that she didn’t expose herself, and carried her out of the house, evading the servants as he headed straight to the car park.

“Jing Yun…” Mu Qiqi was waving at him from the car, and he quickly got on the car with Sheng Minglan.

Only then did Sheng Xiao’s car really left the Sheng residence.

“How’s Fourth Sister?” Mu Qiqi turned around to look only to find Sheng Minglan’s face fully red as she kept moaning away.

Sheng Xiao turned her head back to look ahead even as he talked to Jing Yun. “We’re heading straight to Jing Ting. A doctor is already waiting.”

Understanding why Sheng Xiao did that, Mu Qiqi turned on the music—it really wasn’t nice to see someone in their vulnerable moment, and she should allow Fourth Sister to maintain her dignity.

Jing Yun himself looked gratefully at them before tightening his arms around Sheng Minglan.

Her body was too hot, and not easing it in time would harm her body.

And knowing how worried Jing Yun was, Sheng Xiao jammed his foot on the pedal.

Nonetheless, Sheng Minglan was trying her best to rub herself all over Jing Yun’s chest.

Because that spot was so icy… and so comfortable…

Jing Yun started to blush as well, but fortunately for him, the couple up front pretended as if they were unaware, even keeping the music loud and deafening.

“Hold on a little longer, Fourth Sister.” He murmured.

Be that as it may, Sheng Minglan was simply unable to control the hollowness and raging impulses burning within her body, even climbing up to Jing Yun’s neck, straightening herself as she bit his ear.

Jing Yun restrained her, afraid that she would get even more kinky.

Eventually, the car drove into Jing Ting and Jing Yun immediately carried Sheng Minglan down the car. The doctor waiting responded quickly too, injecting her with another medicine to counteract the aphrodisiac after a quick check.

“This would need some time to take effect. You should rub her body with wet towels.”

At those words, Jing Yun promptly carried Sheng Minglan to the guest room, putting her on the bed while he got some ice out of the fridge.

Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi traded looks.

They sincerely believed that Jing Yun was trying too hard to stay single for life…

Still, Sheng Minglan regained some lucidity with the counteracting drug. She watched as Jing Yun busied away, before catching him by his sleeve.

“Jing Yun…”

“What is it, Fourth Sister?”

“Jing Yun…”

“What is it, Fourth Sister?” He quickly crouched in front of her.

“I feel sick. I feel very sick. Don’t you like me? Take me, then…”

Jing Yun’s whole body stiffened.

Fourth Sister knew that he liked her? And she’s even telling him to take her?

Nonetheless, he regained his sanity in the next instant and tried to calm her down. “Fourth Sister, the doctor has already given you a checkup. Just hold on for a bit and you’ll be fine.”

“But I feel really sick.” Sheng Minglan said, even reaching out to grab his clothes and baring herself in the process, with Jing Yun promptly pulling the blanket over her.

“You’ll be fine soon…”

“I’ll be fine if you take me.”

“I won’t take advantage of you when you’re vulnerable.” Jing Yun replied determinedly. “There’s some ice here. I’ll rub it on you for a bit and you’ll feel well soon.”

After all, Jing Yun’s head was very clear at the moment, and he knew that the wrong thing shouldn’t be done at the wrong time. He wouldn’t want Sheng Minglan to marry him out of obligation over something like this, because it was his hope that she would make every choice with a clear head.

Fortunately, Sheng Minglan said nothing else, instead closing her eyes to work with him.

Soon, she weathered through the toughest phase and she felt more comfortable.

A while later, she opened her eyes again and said to him, “Not a word about tonight.”

“Not on my life.” Jing Yun promised.

Set at ease, Sheng Minglan closed her eyes again, just as her opinion of Jing Yun took on a completely new perspective.

The boy had really matured.

Outside, Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi were sitting at the living room, with the latter staring at the guest room door before turning to Sheng Xiao. “Xiaoxiao, do you think we would see some progress between them? What with Fourth Sister being like that.”

Sheng Xiao shook his head. “Jing Yun would never take advantage of others.”

“He’s ruining such a good chance. He could profess his love even if there’s no progress.”

“Fourth Sister knows about his feelings.” Sheng Xiao said, pinching her nose. “Alright, it’s late now. Wash up and go get some rest.”

“What about you?”

“I have to bring Fourth Sister home before dawn.” Sheng Xiao said, shoving her. “Now rest up. I’m coming up soon.”

“Got it…” Mu Qiqi nodded.

It was lucky that the night had come and gone with thrill but no real danger, although there’s no telling how Seventh Sister would react tomorrow morning.
