Qi Yuntian remained still, silently allowing me to entwine him seductively. His ink-black eyes held a profound meaning as they gazed at me, while my rationality had long been consumed by desire. I instinctively surrendered to the pleasure brought by our entwined bodies.

"Mmm... Ah... Heh..." Moans escaped from my lips once again, and my skin turned deep red under the moonlight's illumination.

Seeing that I had reached my limit, Qi Yuntian knew that if he let it continue, I would die here. He put aside all his considerations and gently embraced my powerless body. With a light leap, our bodies soared into the air, twirling a few times before landing on a tree branch. Qi Yuntian pushed off the branch with his foot and disappeared in a few swift movements.

Mirror Moon Lake regained its tranquility once again, with the gentle sound of flowing water and the rustling of leaves in the wind. It seemed as if nature itself was quietly narrating the events that had just transpired, serving as a witness to this dreamlike encounter.

Inside a bamboo house deep in Qing Song Forest

"Ah... Mmm... Ya..." I clung to Qi Yuntian, not wanting to let go, planting wild kisses all over his face. Seeing me like this, Qi Yuntian could only squeeze onto the bamboo bed with me. With one hand pressing down my writhing body, his other hand gently explored every inch of my body. His slender fingers rhythmically touched my neglected form, and his palm, roughened by wielding a sword, grazed over my body. I trembled lightly, feeling unfamiliar sensations stimulating my brain. It made me restless, wanting to explore and experience more.

While soothing my body, Qi Yuntian couldn't help but wonder about the feelings he had for me. His body became excited as it touched mine, and he was overwhelmed by the sensation. Was the fragrance of Bai Mei Xiang so powerful that it could even tempt himself? At this moment, his male symbol also couldn't bear to remain idle. Beads of sweat formed on Qi Yuntian's forehead, and his gentle movements gradually became more forceful.

Impatient to touch more of Qi Yuntian's skin, I rudely tugged at his clothes. My legs instinctively entwined around his waist, and my vermilion lips only lightly brushed against the corners of his mouth without deeper actions.

Qi Yuntian held the back of my head and his beautiful lips pressed against mine. It was at this moment that I truly understood the meaning of a kiss, realizing how wonderful it felt.

"Mmm... Mmm... Hnn..." Qi Yuntian lightly nibbled on my lip, creating a tingling sensation that almost made me moan out loud. As soon as I opened my mouth, his tongue slipped in like a playful dragon, searching for mine. It wanted to play with me, and I was a willing student. I responded eagerly, intertwining with him in a passionate dance. Strands of silver clung to the corners of our mouths as we engaged in a life-or-death struggle.

While kissing me, Qi Yuntian gestured on his own body. Piece by piece, his clothes left his figure, revealing his fiery body that, when pressed against mine, brought a chilling sensation.

"Mmm... So comfortable... Hnn," I happily exclaimed, a wide smile appearing on my face.

Qi Yuntian's calm pupils darkened, as if an unseen black desire was burning within them. His slender yet powerful body pressed me between the bamboo bed and himself, and our bodies fit closely together. It felt as if I was born for him, destined to be intertwined in this way.

Qi Yuntian lowered his head and looked into my reddened eyes filled with desire. His gaze slowly moved downwards, and as I felt his exploring gaze intensify, my breathing quickened, and my chest rose and fell dramatically. This revealed my well-shaped and ample bosom, and Qi Yuntian's long fingers mercilessly toyed with the rosy bud atop one breast.

"Ah... It hurts... Mmm..." The prolonged stimulation made my breasts sensitive, and his pulling and tugging brought a painful yet sweet sensation. I couldn't bear it and closed my eyes.

"Hnn... You... Ah... Ah..." While I was still lost in the intense pleasure, he opened his mouth and covered the other neglected breast. His action jolted my soul.

Qi Yuntian's hand, which had been caressing my breast, slowly climbed over my lower abdomen, reaching my lower regions. Sensing the wetness, he adjusted his position. He lifted my legs and wrapped them around his waist, holding my buttocks with his hands. His gaze met my bewildered eyes, and he spoke the first words since he embraced me in the bamboo house. "Pojun, endure it for a moment."

My muddled mind couldn't comprehend the meaning of his words, but I felt a moment of pain in my lower regions, understanding his intention.

"Ah... It hurts... Don't... No... Ahh..." The sharp pain in my lower regions brought me back to my senses, and tears blurred my vision. I had truly done this. He was inside me now. I had obtained him. Tears turned into droplets and slid down my cheeks.

Seeing me in tears, Qi Yuntian lowered his head and gently wiped away the tears. He whispered comforting words, but I was once again immersed in the resurging desire and couldn't hear anything.

Sensing my body's movements as I welcomed the penetration of his male symbol deep within me, Qi Yuntian raised my hands above my head, holding them with one hand. With the other hand firmly gripping my waist, he started moving his body slowly.

I couldn't understand why just a moment ago it was painful and unbearable, yet now it was so intense. The indescribable pleasure overwhelmed me, and I could only express my feelings and satisfaction through my cries.

In the midst of my moans, Qi Yuntian gradually increased the speed of his movements. The hand gripping my waist sank deeper into my flesh, and because my hands were restrained, I had to use my legs to tightly follow his rhythm, not letting myself fall behind.

In the ups and downs, I felt something shining constantly moving in front of me. I had an urge to see it clearly, and just when I thought I had seen it, a forceful thrust made me shudder intensely. That shining object flashed past again. Gradually, I became intoxicated by the pleasure he created, and that small object was discarded from my mind.

"Mmm... Mmm... Ahh..." From passionate moans to exhausted whimpering, my limbs also started to feel weak. Qi Yuntian seemed to sense it as well. After a few more forceful thrusts, he firmly pressed deep into my body without moving.

"Ah..." A rush of hot fluid coursed within me, and I let out a loud moan before slipping into unconsciousness. Just as I was being captured by darkness, Qi Yuntian gently held me in his arms. He gazed at me with a thoughtful expression, but I didn't have the chance to witness this rare moment of tenderness.

The greyish sky gradually brightened, and I uneasily moved my body. Immediately, I was captured by a sore sensation, and I wearily opened my eyes. My mind was temporarily blank, but slowly, my thoughts returned.

I sat up, finding it somewhat unbelievable what had happened last night. I saw my clothes and protective armor placed at the end of the bed, while I remained completely naked. It dawned on me that the events were indeed real, that he had truly embraced me.

He left. After embracing me, did he leave?

I picked up my clothes and dressed one by one. While adjusting the collar, I unexpectedly found something that didn't belong to me hanging around my neck. It was a silver chain adorned with a colorless transparent stone that emitted a dazzling spectrum of colors.

Curiosity got the better of me, and I played with it for a while before putting it on. Did he give this to me? Why would he give me something so rare, and was it meant as compensation for embracing me?

After tidying up my clothes, I left the bamboo house without looking back. I would never come back here again because he wanted me to be a general, a man. After being embraced by him last night, I could no longer see myself as a man. I would only seal away the wonderful experience and erase the memories that shouldn't have existed.

Qing Song Forest, Mirror Moon Lake, and the bamboo house filled with memories... Farewell.

I quietly sneaked into my own residence and softly knocked on the window that was closed when I left last night. "Linger, are you awake?" I called out in a low voice, afraid of alerting the servants.

"Squeak..." The window opened as I finished speaking, and Hong Ling looked at me with concern from inside the room.

"Big brother, you've finally returned. I was so worried," Hong Ling had been anxious all night, and she finally let go of her fearful heart upon seeing me.

"I'm sorry for making you worry. Everything is fine now." I swiftly turned and entered the room, smiling at Hong Ling.

"Big brother, why did you ask me to wait for you to come back before leaving?" Hong Ling asked, her confusion evident.

"That way, if your belly starts to show, no one will say anything. After all, since our marriage, I haven't shared the same bed with you. There are too many nosy people in the residence, so this way there won't be any gossip," I casually explained, but when I finished changing clothes and emerged from behind the screen, I saw tears streaming down Hong Ling's face.

"Linger, why are you crying again? With the way you cry, I'm afraid you'll flood the General's Residence with your tears. I don't know how to comfort you, so I'll tell you some unfunny jokes in the hopes of making you smile," I tried to lighten the mood, hoping she would stop crying.

"Big brother, I am truly grateful for how you treat me. I have nothing more to repay you." As soon as Hong Ling's words fell, she delicately bowed to me.

I quickly reached out and supported her frail body, once again feeling heartache for this unfortunate woman. Hong Ling, I treat you this way because I owe you, but you shouldn't be like this.

"Linger, both you and I are pawns of fate. I genuinely care for you, so if you continue like this, it means you don't want to accept my goodwill." I spoke with a strong tone of reproach, hoping she wouldn't continue behaving this way.

"Big brother..." Hong Ling was too overwhelmed to speak and could only tremble.

I embraced her weak body, feeling the small life growing within her delicate frame. This was truly a delicate situation. If only I could be like her? These chaotic thoughts drifted through my mind, and a sudden idea startled me. What am I thinking? Have I gone mad? I am a general, I am a man. I have a wife, and there will be children in the future. I urgently calmed my thoughts and patted Hong Ling's shoulder.

"Let's go outside," I said calmly.

Hong Ling wiped away the tears on her face and nodded.

As I was about to push the door, I remembered something important. I turned around and spoke in a solemn tone, "Linger, if your mother gives you any strange things in the future, promise me you won't take them, alright?" Hong Ling was momentarily stunned, still not fully comprehending my extremely cautious expression. However, when she thought of last night's events, she immediately understood and nodded without saying a word.

The door gently opened, and Hong Ling and I appeared in the courtyard, looking affectionate and sweet. The servants who came and went, seeing their master and his wife like this, wore joyful smiles on their faces.

And so, with such an affectionate appearance, Hong Ling and I appeared at the scenic spots and historical sites of Luoyang, amidst the drizzling rain on the streets. People were gossiping about the loving history between the Northern Wei General and his wife, and some young girls confined to their homes were envious of the general's wife for finding such a good husband.

Luoyang, Lin Yu Tower

"Hey, have you heard? The general's wife seems to be pregnant," a passerby whispered to another person beside them.

"What's so surprising about that? The general and his wife have been married for more than three months. With their affectionate relationship, it would be strange if the general didn't have a child," the second person replied, wearing an expression that said, "You fool."

"What? I'm telling you, the general is truly amazing. Not only is he skilled in battle, but he's also unrivaled in that aspect. Hehe..." the first person said with a suggestive tone.

"Hehe... Do you envy him?" the second person replied in a strange tone after hearing the first person's words.

This conversation reached the ears of a man who stiffened, his fists clenched tightly, and a killing intent emanating from him. "Bang!" He forcefully slammed the table, causing it to shatter into pieces. The people who were sitting nearby quickly moved away, not wanting to attract any trouble.

She's pregnant. Why? Hong Ling, have you truly forgotten about me like this? I've held lingering feelings for you all this time, and you've already accepted another man so quickly. And now you're even pregnant? Deng Zhiwen's elegant face turned cold, his tiger-like eyes burning with anger as he glared into the distance. I want to see what this fickle woman looks like.

"Zhiwen, where are you going?" Qiao Yu watched his friend, who didn't take the stairs but instead used light footwork to fly out. Shaking his head, he sighed. Ah, they had come here to have tea peacefully, but he heard the most heart-wrenching words from him. Now the table in his teahouse was smashed, how painful... It was made of the best redwood, too...

Yunfo Temple

Incense wafted through the sacred Buddhist temple, today I accompanied Hong Ling to Yunfo Temple to pray for the child still in her womb. I don't know who spread the news, but it led to a much larger number of worshippers than usual. For what? The main reason was to make vows to the Buddha, but many people also came to see the woman who had transformed the fearsome general into a gentle figure.

Due to our special identities, the abbot of the temple had purposely cleared a Buddha hall for us to worship alone. It was good to avoid unnecessary disturbances. I was quite satisfied with this arrangement, as Hong Ling could pray in peace.

Hong Ling, supported by Zi Zhu, slowly knelt down. Her delicate hand gently caressed her slightly round belly, and a sweet smile bloomed on her face.

I silently watched every movement Hong Ling made, feeling shocked in my heart. Was this motherly love? If all the mothers in the world were like this, then where did orphans like me come from? As I thought about it, my thoughts became chaotic. What about my parents? Perhaps they left me because of something, or maybe they were no longer in this world.

I looked disinterestedly at the solemn Bodhisattva on the altar, wearing a selfless smile. With half-closed eyes, the Bodhisattva watched over everything in the mortal world with compassion, serenity, and tolerance.

"Linger, I want to speak with the abbot about something. If you finish your prayers, you can go for a walk in the courtyard. I'll join you soon." I remembered something I needed to discuss with the abbot, thinking that I would only be gone for a moment. There shouldn't be any issues. After instructing Zi Zhu to take good care of Hong Ling, I turned and left. However, I didn't expect that as soon as I left, a man silently infiltrated.

Look to the left.
