Silent Lover (The Silent Concubine) - Chap 102
Chapter 102 – Light and Frivolous Forceful Kiss
Yu’er…
Xiao Xieye was pleasantly surprised by the favor he received, holding Shen Yu’s hand in his palm. Only he knew how rare Shen Yu’s intimacy was. Xiao Xieye’s heart was pounding heavily, longing for this moment for a long time…
At that moment, Xiao Xieye also understood why Shen Yu did this.
But even if it was fake, Xiao Xieye accepted it willingly.
“Xuan Xiao, it seems you are too confident. Yu’er, he has already forgotten about you.”
Jun Xuanxiao stared at Shen Yu without shifting his gaze, his deep eyes showing no signs of surprise, as if trying to see through Shen Yu…
He has indeed changed. He no longer looks at himself with the reverent and fanatical eyes of a servant, nor does he need to be servile to anyone. It’s as if he has his own soul now, shining brightly…
Jun Xuanxiao was somewhat uncomfortable with this version of Shen Yu. Before, he could firmly control Shen Yu, but now there was a sense of liberation from his oppressive dominance, as if he wanted to break free and soar…
“Is that so?” Jun Xuanxiao smirked, with a hint of coldness in his hearty laugh. “Then why come here and yet not dare to look at me?”
Shen Yu’s body froze for a moment. He indeed dared not look directly at Jun Xuanxiao, fearing that his sharp eagle eyes would expose his true self…
“Conceited!” Xiao Xieye angrily exclaimed, “Yu’er came here not because of forgotten feelings. He came to ask you, where did you take his mother?!”
Jun Xuanxiao’s gaze lingered, then he chuckled…
“So that’s it, Xiao Xieye, you sure know how to put on a show. It only proves your guilt.” Jun Xuanxiao’s tone shifted, admitting, “It was indeed the old maid from the Shen Mansion. Several months ago, I ordered her to be taken away from Governor Shen’s hands. As for where she’s hidden… that’s something I don’t feel like disclosing now.”
In a fit of rage, Xiao Xieye picked up a nearby whip and fiercely struck. With a crack, a deep blood mark appeared on Jun Xuanxiao’s chest, the thorns on the whip piercing his flesh, immediately staining the area red with blood…
“Haha… Xiao Xieye, trying out the ten tortures of the celestial prison on me? Let’s see if I’ll spill the beans?! Hahaha…”
Jun Xuanxiao laughed even more wildly, as if he were the executioner himself. His crimson tongue licked his lips, bloodthirsty and arrogant, staring straight at Shen Yu, whose face flushed under his fiery gaze…
Though the lash fell on Prince Zhenbei, Shen Yu felt a heart-wrenching pain. He dared not look at the wounds, as the crimson blood seemed like tongues of fire, scorching his heart with anguish…
Xiao Xieye embraced Shen Yu, comforting him softly…
“Yu’er, you don’t have to be afraid.”
Shen Yu was indeed afraid, but not of punishment. He was afraid he couldn’t help but plead for leniency for Prince Zhenbei…
“Yu’er!”
Seeing Shen Yu leaning on Xiao Xieye, Jun Xuanxiao suddenly shouted.
“Come here! I’ll tell you where your mother is.”
Shen Yu turned incredulously, and Prince Zhenbei smiled inexplicably. Would he really reveal his mother’s whereabouts so easily?
But Shen Yu had no choice but to believe or not. He grasped at any sliver of hope.
Shen Yu walked up to Jun Xuanxiao, close at hand. Suddenly, he felt like he was back to before, with no decrease in his affection for this man.
“Come closer, I’ll only tell you, don’t want Xiao Xieye to hear,” Jun Xuanxiao’s voice was alluring, and Shen Yu subconsciously wanted to obey his command.
“What trick are you trying to play?!” Xiao Xieye coldly interjected.
Jun Xuanxiao didn’t bother to reply to him, only saying to Shen Yu, “You want to know, right? Come closer, and I’ll tell you…”
Shen Yu involuntarily moved closer. They were almost touching each other. Prince Zhenbei’s thick, black eyebrows, his dark and inscrutable eyes, his high nose… All of this appeared in Shen Yu’s dreams every day, making him willingly infatuated, the source of his longing night after night…
Jun Xuanxiao lowered his head, nearing Shen Yu’s shoulder and neck, squinting his eyes and taking a deep sniff…
“Yu’er, you smell so good…”
Jun Xuanxiao grinned, his smile devilish…
The fragrance on Shen Yu was not that of a woman’s rouge, but a unique freshness. He spent his days reading and writing at the Kirin Pavilion, imbued with the scent of ink…
Prince Zhenbei’s voice was deep and hoarse, like the venom of a snake, making Shen Yu dizzy. Shen Yu pinched himself to maintain his composure…
Just as Shen Yu was about to gesture in inquiry, his cheek was suddenly pressed against by something warm. It was fleeting, but intense. Prince Zhenbei even mischievously stuck out his tongue, brushing it against the corner of Shen Yu’s lips…
Shen Yu stepped back in panic. Even in this situation, Prince Zhenbei still had the mind to tease and forcefully kiss him?!
“Still as fragrant as before! Hahaha…”
Jun Xuanxiao licked his lips, like a child tasting candy, completely satisfied…
“Why?!” Shen Yu’s thoughts were in chaos. Didn’t he reject himself? Why would he still kiss him? Just to provoke Emperor Ye?!
What shocked Shen Yu even more was that his heart was racing, feeling some… joy?! Even if Prince Zhenbei was using him to mock Emperor Ye, Shen Yu was willing…
“Jun Xuanxiao!!”
Xiao Xieye couldn’t contain his anger, picking up the whip and fiercely lashing several times, only to elicit even more rampant laughter from Jun Xuanxiao…
“Yu’er, don’t mind this lunatic. Let’s go, you go back first,” Xiao Xieye grabbed Shen Yu’s arm with concern, burning with jealousy at Jun Xuanxiao’s actions.
Xiao Xieye also had times when he couldn’t control himself, but he restrained himself because he wanted to be a gentleman, to let Shen Yu willingly surrender himself to him. Yet Jun Xuanxiao was a complete bastard, acting as he pleased, disregarding Shen Yu’s feelings…
“Yu’er,” Jun Xuanxiao suddenly called out, “Come back tomorrow, I might actually tell you then.”
Xiao Xieye was angry and resentful. Was this bastard just using this to keep Shen Yu, making Shen Yu come to see him every day for his own amusement and mockery?!
