Taiping paused slightly, her captivating phoenix eyes gleaming with amusement as she surveyed the man's naked body. Completely unconcerned about her own life, she said, "Oh, the scenery here is truly breathtaking." The man narrowed his eyes dangerously. "You're really lucky. I thought you were going to die."
Taiping said with a hint of regret, "Yes, I'm sorry to disappoint you. Not only am I not dead, but I'm also perfectly healthy." The man looked at Taiping with disdain, but when he saw the calmness in her eyes, he was somewhat stunned. 'What is this woman doing? Doesn't she know her life is in my hands?'
You won't be disappointed, because I will personally take your life.
Taiping looked at the man speechlessly and said, "Then you have to give me a reason, and let me die with a clear conscience." The man sneered and said, "Fine, then I'll tell you the reason." The man paused and looked straight at Taiping and said, "It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, Xie wouldn't have shown such a gentle expression. He has never treated me like that before."
Taiping frowned, completely bewildered. "Um, who's Xie?" As soon as he finished speaking, a crow flew over the man's head. The man glared fiercely at Taiping. "Xie is my brother. He wears a silver mask." Taiping nodded in understanding, then asked, "Since he's wearing a mask, how do you know he showed me a gentle expression?" The crow flew over again. Yuqi looked at Taiping with obvious impatience. "People's eyes can speak."
Taiping smiled faintly. "Yu Xie, Yu Qi. Hmm, not bad names. But, so Yu Qi, you're a..." Taiping looked at Yu Qi with great regret, finally shaking his head helplessly. "Although I don't despise BL, actually encountering it myself is a bit......" As he finished speaking, Taiping looked at Yu Qi, whose face had darkened considerably. His translucent lips curved into a smile, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished from Yu Qi's sight.
Yuqi stared wide-eyed in shock. When did she lose her name? And how did she know her name? "Curious?" A silvery voice came from behind Yuqi. Yuqi snapped back to reality and turned around to look behind her.
Taiping lay languidly on a slightly bent bamboo stalk, her captivating phoenix eyes smiling as she looked at Yuqi. "Yes, how did I know?" She couldn't very well tell him that she had overheard their conversation yesterday. "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."
(Dear friends, I don't know why, but I've been feeling a bit weak these past few days. Sigh, I also feel my writing hasn't been good. I hope you'll forgive me.)
Little Taiping's Carefree Life 009
Little Taiping's Carefree Life 009 Taiping lay lazily on a slightly bent bamboo stalk, her captivating phoenix eyes smiling as she looked at Yuqi. "Yes, how did I know?" She couldn't very well tell him that she had overheard their conversation yesterday. "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."
Yuqi narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing Taiping from head to toe, then recalled Taiping's tattered clothes from that day. She then said, "With your martial arts skills, I think no one in this world can harm you now." Taiping smiled faintly, "Logically speaking, yes. However..." Yuqi frowned slightly, "However, what?" A subtle, unnoticed glint flashed in Taiping's phoenix eyes. "However, my power has not yet recovered." These words shocked Yuqi, her eyes widening in disbelief, the words "not yet recovered" still echoing in her ears.
A ruthless glint flashed in Yuqi's eyes. If she could keep this person for herself, all the better. But if… then she would only have death. (How come you have the same idea as your brother? But do you really think you can harm Taiping? Naive children.) Yuqi took a deep breath and coldly snorted, "So, what were your intentions in pretending to be unconscious and having us bring you back?"
Taiping was slightly taken aback, then sat up and said, "Please, I was really unconscious at that time. Besides, I didn't ask you to bring me back." As she spoke, Taiping rolled her eyes in exasperation.
Yuqi also felt that she was in the wrong, and then said, "Then, why don't you leave?" Taiping smiled faintly, lightly touched the ground with her toes, flipped off the bamboo and landed, walking towards Yuqi. "I would like to, but what if your brother won't let me leave?" Taiping said, pretending to be aggrieved as she looked at Yuqi.
Looking at Taiping, Yuqi's heart skipped a beat, then began to pound faster and faster. Yuqi frowned; damn it, that feeling was back. "I think, with your skills, if you want to leave, no one can stop you." Taiping's translucent pink lips curved into a smile as she walked up to Yuqi, extending her delicate fingers to intimately caress Yuqi's soft lips. "But what about your brother? He's already made me his new favorite."
Yuqi was slightly taken aback. He didn't dislike Taiping's touch; on the contrary, he felt a hint of joy. Yuqi frowned slightly and said, "A new favorite?" Thinking of this, Yuqi's eyes dimmed a little. Taiping smiled faintly and removed her small hand from Yuqi's lips. "Not bad, a new favorite. You really spoil him too much. You can even have someone watching you wherever you go."
Taiping's small hand had already left, and Yuqi felt a little disappointed. Then, looking at Taiping, she said, "No matter what, I hope you can stay away from evil." Taiping's lips curled into a smile as gentle as a spring breeze. His captivating phoenix eyes stared directly at Yuqi. His jade-like small hand, however, slowly moved towards Yuqi's grasp, and then held hers.
"Mmm..." A wave of pleasurable sensation spread throughout Yuqi's body. He stared wide-eyed in shock at the smile in Taiping's eyes. Taiping smiled sweetly and said, "I agree to your request to stay away from your brother. However, you have to cooperate with me." As she spoke, Taiping extended her delicate, small tongue and licked her tender lips. Then, to Yuqi's astonishment, she kissed Yuqi's soft lips.
Yuqi felt his mind go blank, his handsome face flushed crimson. The soft touch of her lips made his breath quicken, and he abruptly pushed Taiping away. With a light touch on his toes, he vanished from Taiping's sight using his light-footed skill.
Taiping reached out her delicate hand and touched her lips. "You ran really fast, but luckily you ran fast, otherwise I really would have wanted to eat you up." A smile spread across Taiping's lips.
After Taiping left, Lan'er slowly emerged from the depths of the bamboo grove, smiling sweetly, "Such big news should be told to Mother." With that, she vanished in the blink of an eye.
Darkness fell quickly, and Taiping was still struggling to find her way back. "Miss, Miss, Miss Yu'er!" A maidservant rushed over, panting heavily. Then, the maidservant looked at Taiping with a relieved expression and said, "Miss Yu'er, Master, we have been waiting for you for a long time, but seeing that you hadn't returned, we left. However, Master, please have Miss Yu'er prepare for tonight's feast."
Taiping frowned, looking at the little maid and saying, "What did you just say? **?" Good heavens... **? Seriously, that Yu Xie guy, can't he at least respect my opinion? Sigh, it seems Yu Qi and I are destined to be enemies. (So what do you want to do?)
The little maid covered her mouth and chuckled. "Miss Yu'er, really! Look how happy your mistress is. It's true, although our master wears a mask and is as cold as ice, he's still a kind man." (Clearly, the little maid misunderstood Taiping.)
Taiping obediently followed the maid back to her courtyard. As soon as they entered, the maid held up a dress, holding it up against Taiping. She wasn't going to do anything special, just serve the emperor; there was no need for such formality. No matter how well she dressed, in the end, she'd still have to take it off.
Helpless, Taiping snatched the clothes from the maid's hands, saying, "I'll wear this." The maid looked at Taiping with a wronged expression, "But, Miss..." "Protest denied," Taiping interrupted the maid, turning to sit at the table and drink tea. There was still time.
The moon hung high in the sky. Taiping, with graceful steps, gently pushed open the door to the room. She went inside and looked around. This must be where Yu Xie lived. It was quite like the kind of place a man like him would live, as cold as he was.
Thinking that Taiping had already gone into the inner room, the gauze curtain had already covered everything behind it, and when the wind blew, the gauze curtain seemed to flutter like a fairy. Taiping just stood there, neither speaking nor going in.
Suddenly, the gauze curtains were drawn back, revealing a man lying on the jade-like bed. His back was to the Empress Dowager, and he was only wearing an undergarment; nothing else. "Come here," a hoarse, magnetic, and alluring voice said, carrying a faint command in its tone.
Taiping paused slightly, pouting, "Hmph, you think I'd just go whenever you tell me to? That would be so embarrassing!" Hearing Taiping's words, the man sat up, turning to look at her. He still wore a silver mask, his inner robe slightly open, revealing his undeniably muscular chest. Taiping swallowed hard. 'This humble woman is flexible and adaptable. As for men, I, Taiping, can have as many as I want. But... can I eat him first?'
(Don't go away, the best is yet to come.)
Little Taiping's Carefree Life 010
Little Taiping's Carefree Life 010 The man sat up, turned to look at Taiping, still wearing the silver mask, his inner garment slightly open, revealing his unspeakable, muscular chest. Taiping swallowed hard. 'This humble woman is flexible and adaptable; as for men, I, Taiping, can have as many as I want. But, this one, can I eat him first?'
Yu Xie looked at Taiping with a faint smile and said, "What? You seem very reluctant to do this for me." A beautiful curve appeared on Yu Xie's lips beneath his mask. Taiping looked at Yu Xie and slowly walked towards him, saying, "No, you're wrong. I, Taiping, am open to all men. Especially..." Taiping smiled deeply, her phoenix eyes brazenly surveying Yu Xie's figure.
Yu Xie looked at Taiping with interest, his sword-like eyebrows slightly raised beneath the mask. "Especially what?" As he spoke, Taiping had already walked to Yu Xie's side. Taiping extended her delicate hand and caressed Yu Xie's bare chest, saying calmly, "Especially, men with incredibly good bodies. They're my type." However, relatively speaking, I prefer handsome men; that's my true feast. Unfortunately, the man with the incredibly good body before me wore a silver mask. Truly, disappointing.
Yu Xie looked at Taiping with amusement, then reached out and pulled her into his arms. "So, my figure is your type." Taiping was slightly taken aback. "Uh, yes, your figure is my type." Yu Xie smiled faintly, lifting Taiping's chin with her fingers. "Yu'er, Yu'er, just like your name, you're like jade, clear and without a trace of impurity." Taiping's eyes dimmed slightly, but she concealed it well. "What if one day, someone tells you that I'm not the Yu'er in your heart?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xie froze, staring at Taiping in shock. "You... how did you know?" Taiping frowned slightly. What did I know? Strange. But this man's behavior was definitely suspicious. "I don't know. Should I know something?" Hearing Taiping's words, Yu Xie visibly relaxed. He returned to his original demeanor. "It's best if you don't know."
Taiping knew that no matter what she said, this man would not answer her. Taiping reached out her jade hand and stroked Yu Xie's mask, saying, "Behind the mask is the real you, isn't it? I don't know if I have the honor of seeing the real you." A ruthless glint flashed in Yu Xie's eyes, and his gaze dimmed. "Do you women only look at a man's appearance?"
Taiping extended her slender fingers and covered Yu Xie's lips, saying, "Wrong, you're wrong. It's said that a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. It's impossible for them all to be the same. In this world, there are often many couples and lovers, but no one can say for sure what will happen in the future. No one knows what kind of mentality one of the two people who are together is when they get together. In contrast, a man's heart is truly a needle at the bottom of the sea."
Yu Xie was stunned. Had she been wrong? Yu Xie stared blankly at Taiping. "You..." Taiping slowly extended her jade-like arm, her small hand gently removing the silver mask from Yu Xie's face. When her captivating phoenix eyes met the mysterious face beneath the mask, she froze. Two words flashed through her mind: "Demon."
Yu Xie's long hair was casually draped down his back, smooth and flowing like the finest silk. Beneath his delicate, almost feminine eyebrows were a pair of captivating, deep eyes. His perfect face was God's most successful creation. The only flaw was a deep, long sword scar on his flawless features. Yet, despite this, this man was still a stunning beauty, God's most perfect masterpiece. Even Taiping felt a pang of envy towards him.
Yu Xie looked at Taiping's stunned expression upon seeing his face, his eyes dimming slightly. Indeed, women are visual creatures. Taiping, on the other hand, used her delicate hands to caress Yu Xie's face, his eyebrows, eyes, lips, and the sword scar. "Truly, you are God's most perfect work of art."
Yu Xie was stunned by her words. Didn't she find him ugly? Why? Even he himself didn't realize that when he saw the affection in Taiping's eyes, his heart warmed like the blazing summer sun, an unstoppable warmth.
Taiping, unable to tear himself away, stroked Yu Xie's perfect face, muttering to himself, "Pah, pah, pah, what kind of work is this? It's a man." He paused slightly, a blush instantly spreading across his alluring face. Taiping quickly withdrew his hand, lowering his head and stammering, "I, I just..." Uh, Taiping didn't know what to say. He'd just been staring at him like a lovesick fool. What reason did he have to argue?
Yu Xie smiled deeply and pulled Taiping into his arms. "It's alright, you can touch me as long as you want." (Touch me as long as you want? Waaah. Little Bing is obviously thinking dirty thoughts.) The tenderness in Yu Xie's eyes was unmistakable, but unfortunately, he didn't know it. Yu Xie lowered his head and kissed Taiping's translucent, tender lips. He parted Taiping's teeth and entwined his tongue with Taiping's delicate tongue.
Taiping paused slightly, realizing that this man was actually quite nice. However, she didn't like sharing a man with so many other women. But then, Taiping secretly glanced at Yu Xie. Perhaps, perhaps, she would make an exception if it were this man. With that thought, Taiping closed her eyes and awkwardly returned Yu Xie's kiss.
The clothes fell to the ground, and Yu Xie gazed at Taiping's voluptuous figure, his eyes burning with intense desire. "I...I'm coming," he murmured, his voice husky and incredibly alluring. Taiping's face flushed red, and she nodded. She decided to let herself relax for a moment.
Despite her seemingly gentle demeanor, Taiping is an inexperienced woman. A former star, she had no time for marriage, only constant travel. Her life revolved around acting, singing, and her constant companions at train stations, airports, and cars. Every day was filled with scripts to memorize and a packed schedule. Now that the day has finally arrived, it's inevitable that Taiping feels nervous and somewhat afraid.
As if sensing Taiping's fear and nervousness, Yu Xie's hoarse, deep voice rang out again, "I will be very gentle." He had never been like this with any woman before. It was always without preamble; in his heart, his harem was merely a tool for venting his frustrations.
Yu Xie gently kissed Taiping's small lips, afraid of hurting her. He had prepared thoroughly, but at this crucial, absolutely crucial moment, a loud knocking on the door stopped Yu Xie's next move. Yu Xie's brows furrowed in displeasure. He angrily said, "You...do you want to die?"
Outside the door was a young maidservant who said in a low voice, "Master, Miss Yu...she has fainted."
Little Taiping's Carefree Life 011
In the novel "Little Taiping's Carefree Life 011," a maidservant stood outside the door, murmuring, "Master, Miss Yu...she has fainted." Upon hearing this, Yu Xie froze. He grabbed a mask, put it on, hurriedly got out of bed, picked up some clothes, and quickly opened the door. "What did you say?" His cold, anxious voice chilled Taiping to the bone.
The maidservant looked anxious. "Master, Miss Yu, she... she's fainted." Yu Xie pushed the maidservant aside and quickly left.
Taiping stared blankly at the ceiling, a self-deprecating smile slowly spreading across her translucent lips. The coldness in her eyes was enough to freeze anyone. The maid outside the door glanced at Taiping disdainfully. Although she hadn't clearly seen the woman on the bed, she knew that anyone who tried to take something from Miss Yu was asking for trouble. "Hey, you're that new girl, Yu'er, aren't you? I'm warning you, don't even think about messing with the mistress. The mistress can only be Miss Yu." With that, she snorted and turned to leave.
On the bed, Taiping listlessly dressed. Staring blankly at the wide-open door, she smiled, a beautiful smile, but who knew the pain within? 'How naive I was, men, ha. How laughable. In this world, besides my mother and seven fathers, only he has been good to me. Lu Feng, where are you? I miss you so much.'
Tears welled in Taiping's eyes. This was the result of her finally relaxing, giving herself completely to someone. Taiping wiped the tears from her face, her eyes vacant.
Footsteps echoed in the distance, telling Taiping that he had returned. Yu Xie strode into the house and saw Taiping, dressed neatly and with a breathtakingly beautiful smile.
Taiping smiled warmly and slowly stood up. "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Even as she finished speaking, Taiping maintained her faint smile, but Yu Xie sensed her distance. His heart ached sharply. Watching Taiping walk past him, Yu Xie suddenly grabbed her small hand. "Yu'er."
Taiping paused for a moment, then chuckled softly, "No, I am not Yu'er. Nor am I the Yu in your heart." With that, Taiping gently pushed Yu Xie's hand away. "Tonight, consider it repayment for saving your life. Although you suffered some loss, I think the infamous leader of the Demonic Sect wouldn't hold a grudge against a commoner like me." Having said that, she didn't look at Yu Xie again and left.
Yu Xie stood there blankly. He had only returned because he thought of Taiping halfway through his journey. He hadn't even gone to see Yu. But... he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
Yu Xie's heart felt like it was bleeding. Why? Yu Xie slowly walked to the bedside, sat down, and reached out to stroke the spot where Taiping had just lain. Her other hand covered her slightly aching chest. "Yu'er." (Dear readers, Taiping's alias is Yu'er, and that Miss Yu's name is Yu. Okay, do you understand?)
Meanwhile, Taiping walked aimlessly, her eyes vacant. She didn't want to stay here anymore. That man, misunderstanding her mother and seeking revenge, was simply delusional. Her mother was practically a god. He had no chance of winning. His death was none of her concern.
Thinking of this, Taiping felt a sharp pain in her heart. She frowned slightly; she wanted to be like her mother, unburdened by any emotions. She slowly squatted down, exhausted from walking so long. 'Sigh, it's a pity, a handsome young man is gone, but oh well, I still have a whole forest to explore. As the saying goes, give up a small blade of grass, and a whole forest awaits you.' Thinking this, Taiping's sadness subsided. Ah, it's good to understand something.
"Young lady, are you feeling unwell anywhere?" A gentle voice rang out, as pleasant as a spring breeze. It was soothing to hear.
Taiping was slightly taken aback. She looked up to see the source of the voice, and... there she saw: a man dressed in red, exuding an alluring charm. A strand of hair fluttered gently. He had black, tulip-shaped eyes. His skin was as white as snow, seemingly radiating a silvery glow. A gentle smile played on his thin lips.
Taiping's eyes widened instantly. What a twist of fate! When you're down on your luck, even drinking cold water can cause problems. The man before him was none other than Yu Fan, the number one assassin in the world who had tried to kill him. Who else could it be? Taiping thought to himself, "What day is it today? I need to remember this so I won't go out next time. Honestly, it's so late. What are you doing wandering around here so aimlessly, a grown man?" Taiping mentally cursed Yu Fan thoroughly.
As for Yu Fan, the moment Taiping looked up, he felt his heart pounding incredibly fast. In this world, there was still such a beautiful woman. "Miss, are you feeling unwell? It's so late. Don't wander around; it's not safe," Yu Fan said with a gentle smile, offering his concerned blessings to Taiping.
Taiping frowned slightly. Strange, was the man before him Yu Fan? He seemed different from the others he'd met. Taiping quickly found a flaw. Because Yu Fan's eyes were utterly indifferent. Completely devoid of emotion—this was the gentle disguise of the world's number one assassin. Truly a smile hiding a dagger. "Aren't you also out at night?" Taiping scoffed.
Yu Fan found it amusing and said, "You are a woman, and I am a man. We are not the same." Taiping was surprised, then said, "So what? Anyway, I'm out now."
Yu Fan found it amusing. "May I ask your name, young lady?" Taiping smiled faintly. "Has no one told you that when asking someone's name, you should state your own?" Yu Fan was slightly taken aback and smiled. "Uh, sorry, my name is Yu Fan." Taiping feigned surprise. "Yu Fan? Wow. What a nice name."
Yu Fan, standing beside her, assumed the woman knew he was the top assassin, and his heart clenched. He was terrified she might be afraid of him. "Is that so? It's a good name. My mother gave it to me; she hoped I would be like an eagle soaring in the sky, possessing strong feathers and a peaceful life."
Taiping was slightly taken aback. Actually, this man wasn't bad either. "Then, Auntie, she..." Yu Fan's eyes dimmed a little. "She left me, just like that, so heartlessly." Taiping was a little stunned, and quickly said, "I'm sorry, I..." As she spoke, Taiping grabbed Yu Fan's hand. "Come with me." Then she got up and ran towards her own courtyard.
Although Yu Fan was completely confused, he still let Taiping pull him along.
