Chapter 526: [ She was embarrassed ]
Like a moth to a flame… slowly, and slowly…
Her heart seemed to be entangled by an invisible string.
As Lan Ling 'er leaned her head closer, that string little by little tightened.
Reflected on her glass-like eyes, turning bigger and bigger, Allen’s face looked pale and thin. While sleeping, he even had a frown. Due to her fear of him, she had not actually taken a good look at his appearance, and now she finally could.
Her fingers unconsciously touched his wrinkled brows then brushed across his eyelashes. She could imagine if the owner was awake, this pair of eyes would certainly be cold and detached and sometimes slightly mocking and yet often, cheerful and a bit playful like a kid.
Finally, the fingers stopped at the beautiful blood-colored lips. It was said that most of the people with this kind of lips are fickle in love. And they said right, this Ye Wushuang was surely one!
Lan Ling 'er smiled bitterly. To me, you are just a dream… a speck of dream and illusion that is fleeting and would then disappear after I opened my eyes…
Before Lan Ling ‘er realized what she was doing, her lips replaced her fingers. Her lips still cold from the outside air, but his lips were unexpectedly warm. The warmness unexpectedly made her sad. Then, wetness rolled on her face, without reason dropped, and she could not control them.
Why?
She felt a pang of pain she didn’t know why it existed…
“What are you doing?!”
“Ah! ——”
The sudden angry and gritting voice startled her, causing her to let out a scream. After that scream, it was as if Lan Ling ‘er had been pushed back by a wave of air. She retracted her hands and fell back until she was sitting on the floor.
When she turned her head and turned towards the door, a beautiful figure wearing a frilly aproned maid uniform was standing enraged, like an angry mother lion seeing her cub being bullied, and her eyes seemed to be almost spewing fire.
“…I asked, what are you trying to do?!” A cold voice seemingly coming out from gnashed teeth, Laura glared at Lan Ling ‘er’s pale face in extreme anger. If look can kill, Lan Ling ‘er would surely have turned to ash by now…!
Step! Step! Step! Laura’s hurried footsteps echoed in the quiet room and the moment she arrived before the couch, like an overprotective lioness, she didn’t even look at Lan Ling ‘er and immediately bent down and carefully picked Allen’s body up from the couch. Obviously, she was annoyed and mad, but she still managed to control her strength from disturbing Allen’s sleep.
Allen’s body filled the emptiness of her embrace.
His warm and light breathing fell on her neck where his face was buried on her shoulders.
As if checking his condition, Laura completely ignored Lan Ling ‘er as she lowered her head slightly so her cheek rubbed Allen’s soft cheek. He slept outside for so long, yet the cheek was still warm. Fortunately…
He didn’t wake up…right?
He didn’t notice Lan Ling ‘er’s defilement…right?
Suddenly, Allen, who was in her embrace, moved to escape her touch. Laura was startled, she held her breath, had he waken up?
Actually no, he just found a more comfortable position by burying his head in her arm. He was sleeping even more deeply, completely unaware that someone’s heart was fluttering wildly because of his very small movements. Fortunately… fortunately…
…… Ai, Laura sighed in her heart which was filled with relief.
She could no longer control that more and more good mood.
After checking Allen’s condition, Laura finally turned her head and glanced at Lan Ling ‘er condescendingly, her eyes flashing with undisguised anger. “Lan Ling ‘er, I asked again, what are you doing?” she asked with her gritted teeth, “Lan Ling ‘er, what do you actually want!”
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Lan Ling ‘er’s mind had already turned blank. Her eyes were blurred by the tears so she couldn’t see Laura’s face properly, but she could still hear her angry voice.
“I ……” She gaped and was tongue-tied, all her thoughts flew away from the brain. For some time, she did not know what to do and could only look at Laura’s fuzzy appearance.
She tried to control her tears that had unknowingly come out without her knowing the reason why, but they were beyond her control. Instead, more tears dropped more rapidly.
She was ashamed…
She was embarrassed…
What did she do…she asks? Isn’t it obvious I kissed him… so what? They are even doing more shameful stuff and yet mere kiss, she can’t overlook? What is she angry for? It’s not like she assaulted him?!
But although her mind was raging and blazing in injustice, she has no guts to say it out loud though. She was sure that if this jealousy freak of a servant becomes really angry, she might really kill her!!
How could it be like this?
Lan Ling ‘er could clearly hear her heart were in the process of being shattered. This kind of shattering sound made her feel afraid and panicked. Fear, ashamed, angry, unknown feelings well up inside her heart.
“So, so what?! So what if I kissed, it’s just a mere kiss!” Lan Ling ‘er gritted her teeth and averted her eyes, and her voice was very soft. So who was she talking to?
However, Laura’s ears were extremely sharp. With this kind of distance, even if Lan Ling er’s whisper was like a buzzing of a mosquito, she would still hear. Thus, the temperature around the room instantly turned cold and gloomy.
Lan Ling ‘er felt the sudden change and her body trembled. Escape! When this idea came out, it immediately dictated her action. She did not know where she produced so much strength to stand up before Laura could speak and like lighting, bolted toward the door without even looking back!
“That bastard…!” Laura grits her teeth in frustration but she didn’t give chase as she was carrying her beloved master. She turned her head down and stared at Allen’s sleeping face…
Allen seemed to be in deep sleep that he didn’t even notice what was happening around him.
Haaa, oh well, I’ll overlook it this time… but that girl dares to defile my master when he is sleeping? I’ll certainly calculate this grudge in the future!
Laura’s head leaned down and her lips overlapped Allen’s lips. “This should clean master’s lips…” Laura smiled gently and started walking towards the door.
As for Lan Ling ‘er, after getting out of the Castle, the noisy sounds of nature all of a sudden filled her ears, somewhat calming her madly beating heart. In the midst of trees and plants swaying, Lan Ling ‘er suddenly did not know where to go.
Where could she go?
“Damn it…” Lan Ling ‘er cursed under her breath!

A single ray of sunlight shone down and pierced through the eyelids of Allen who was asleep but was abruptly awoken by it.
What was the time? Day or night? How come he was sleeping on the bed?
Allen groggily sat up on the bed, but he was not really awake yet. Allen’s sleepy eyes looked at the floor, confused.
Eh, I feel as if something just happened…
What is it?
Allen tilted his head in confusion, wanting to recall but couldn’t…
Why?
At this moment, Laura came out from the kitchen to see Allen yawningly came out to the Throne Hall. He was rubbing his eyes, like an adorable child, still half-asleep.
“Master? Good Morning!” Laura happily greeted as she walked over. Holding a towel, she gently wiped Allen’s face and fixed his bed hair. “Did you sleep well, master?”
Allen scratched the back of his head as he nodded. Then suddenly as if he had thought of something, “Laura, did something happen when I was asleep?”
Laura’s shoulder jumped but it was barely noticeable. If Allen was wide awake, he might notice it on normal occasions but sadly, he was still half asleep and still groggy and his perception slightly waned. Furthermore, he was not all that interested even if something happened. Laura was here, and nothing would happen to him with her around. He trusts no one in this place but her.
Lara smiled gently, “Nothing master… nothing happened…” She affirmed.
“Really?” Allen asks doubtfully.
“Yep, I was beside master all this time…” She emphasized the word 'all' with a sweet smile.
Allen frowned a bit, “I felt as if someone kissed me… so it was you?”
“Yes, it is me!” Laura nodded her head with a strong force as if to emphasize her answer. “I, I suddenly had an urge to kiss master’s cute sleeping face… I’m sorry I disturbed your sleep master,” She muttered shyly--though it was certainly not a lie!
“Ah! It's fine, it’s fine…” Allen smiled gently. Though why do I feel as if the lips are somewhat different, the taste left on my lips is slightly different from Laura… must be my imagination…
That's right, it must be...
“Ah right, I’m hungry…”
“Then, it’s right on time. I just finished preparing your meal,”
“Is that so, let’s go then…”
Allen didn’t notice anything and after this day, Laura was even stricter on monitoring Lan Ling ‘er’s action, making sure, Lan Ling ‘er would never have the moment to be with Allen. If she had an opportunity, she would scold and ridicule Lan Ling ‘er, causing the latter do not know whether to laugh or cry.
She now felt like poor Cinderella in front of her step-sister or mother.
Laura’s guard against her was really so strong, she couldn’t even approach Allen to ask some things about cultivation. UNFAIR…!!!
The next day in the morning, Allen, Lan Ling’er, Si Mulan and several other elite members of the Passing Cloud Sect started making their way to the Despair Grieving Mountain!
