Chapter 328: Enemies in the Dark (1)
Mei Hong replied tremblingly, "The young lady just left. Seeing that Your Highness was lost in thought, I didn't disturb him."
"I'm asking you where she went?" Murong Feng was unexpectedly annoyed. This was the first time he felt that he couldn't control the overall situation. I have to say, this feeling was really bad!
"The young lady said she doesn't want to sleep yet and wants to go to the hillside over there to look at the stars. If Your Highness is tired, you can rest first..."
"Hmph! Are you saying that my concubine hasn't slept yet, so I should rest first? Look at the stars, right? Lead the way, we'll go find her. This is so desolate out here, I'm really worried!"
No matter how you listen, Murong Feng's tone is filled with gritted teeth. He is really worried. Yu Qingli is completely different from when he first met her. It even makes him feel a little panicked.
Come to think of it, she seemed to be quite likable. Why hadn't he noticed that Yu Qingli was so charming before?
Murong Yanhui and Murong Cheng both seemed to get along well with her, so why did she, as her husband, have to endure her indifference? And what on earth was this damned woman planning?
Because he didn't know, he was confused, and because of his confusion, he paid special attention to Yu Qingli recently.
Sometimes Murong Feng wondered if this was just a trick used by Yu Qingli to attract his attention.
But he quickly dismissed this idea. How could someone who tried so hard to avoid physical contact with him deliberately get intimate with other men to attract his attention? Such an idea was really absurd.
In fact, this also made Murong Feng really interested in Yu Qingli. He always felt that Yu Qingli was hiding something from him.
This made Murong Feng even more reluctant to let go. He was like a child who accidentally discovered someone else's secret. He only wanted to keep the secret for himself and was unwilling to give it to anyone else.
Yu Qingli was indeed looking at the stars. She took Xiluo to find a hillside with a nice view, sat on the ground, and looked at the distant starry sky in deep thought. Those dazzling stars flickered in front of her eyes, and it seemed that only looking at them could make her feel a little calmer.
Yu Qingli didn't know how many times she always felt like she was in a dream. These days, she watched her enemy swaying in front of her every day, and her heart had long been numb. Revenge was a matter of sooner or later, so there was no need to rush!
After her rebirth, she felt that her patience had increased a lot. She was like a dormant cheetah, just waiting for the prey to come to her door.
"Miss, someone is coming!"
Xiluo suddenly spoke up to remind her. Yu Qingli nodded slightly, and when she turned around, she saw Murong Feng's face, a face that she loved deeply and hated deeply.
"Qingli, why are you sitting here alone? Although there are soldiers standing guard around, it's still better to be careful in such a desolate place. If you encounter a wild beast, wouldn't it be very dangerous?
"I'm sorry to have worried you, Your Highness. I just thought the starry sky here was beautiful, so I came over to sit for a while."
Yu Qingli lowered her voice. In the quiet night, the deliberately lowered voice actually had a bit of charm, which made Murong Feng suddenly feel dry in the mouth.
Damn it! I don't know if what you can't have is always the best. I just listened to her two words, but when did I lose control like this? Hadn't I been staying with Mei Hong all these days? I should have sorted out my desires long ago.
Murong Feng also sat down on the ground and turned to look at Yu Qingli. In the hazy moonlight, there was only a face with unparalleled beauty and a white and delicate neck, like a proud white swan.
Murong Feng felt that he had never been so eager to get this woman in his life, even though she was obviously his wife.
Murong Feng's scorching gaze made Yu Qingli dare not look back. She only fixed her eyes on the distant horizon, ignoring the beast-like gaze beside her.
The faint fragrance made Murong Feng even more interested. He even began to imagine in his mind how stunning and charming the woman would be if he pressed her under him. He wondered if her beautiful face would become as cold as it was now the moment she was filled with lust.
Thinking of this, Murong Feng felt more and more hot.
The night wind blew, bringing a little chill. Yu Qingli subconsciously shrank her neck, feeling a little cold. The next second, she felt a weight on her shoulders, and she fell into a familiar yet unfamiliar embrace.
All the memories of his past life flashed through Yu Qingli's mind like a kaleidoscope, making him feel nauseous for no reason. He quickly reached out and pushed away Murong Feng, who was looking surprised. He stood up and held onto the big tree next to him to vomit.
Murong Feng's face became extremely ugly. What's wrong with this woman?
Xiluo, who was standing by, hurried forward and supported Yu Qingli, but turned to explain to Murong Feng, "The young lady has a bad stomach. I'm afraid she got hit by the cold wind just now, and her stomach ailment has recurred. So, Your Highness, I will take the young lady back to rest first."
After Xiluo finished speaking, without waiting for Murong Feng's consent, she supported Yu Qingli and walked towards the camp. Murong Feng's face behind her was so ugly that it could not be described.
Mei Hong stood obediently aside with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking. Murong Feng suddenly stood up from the ground, grabbed Mei Hong's arm and dragged her into the woods.
Mei Hong was pulled so hard that it hurt, but she could only beg for mercy softly, "Your Highness, spare my life! Your Highness..."
Murong Feng had a gloomy face, as if he didn't hear Mei Hong's pleas for mercy at all. He dragged Mei Hong into the depths of the woods in a few seconds.
Anger and desire came like a storm, causing Murong Feng to pull Meihong's skirt directly.
The sudden pain almost made Mei Hong scream, but she also knew that if she was discovered, Murong Feng would definitely kill her! So she covered her lips tightly with her hands, only her eyes were wide open, letting him play with her.
It was hard to tell whether the heavy breathing was due to desire or anger. There were even some red bloodshot in Murong Feng's eyes. His gentle face was twisted and hideous, looking extremely scary.
Seeing Mei Hong staring at him, he ordered in dissatisfaction: "Turn away, I don't want to see your dirty face!"
Meihong obediently turned her head, enduring the pain of the trees rubbing against her back, trying to make herself feel more comfortable.
The shattering sound dissipated into the woods along with the night wind. Murong Feng leaned on Mei Hong for a moment, quickly stood up straight, and pushed her away.
Mei Hong fell to the ground due to the weakness after the lovemaking. However, Murong Feng did not seem to have any intention of reaching out to pull her up. He just looked down at her and said with a hint of disgust, "You bitch, don't you know what modesty is? I just beckoned you to open your legs. You are so despicable! Clean it up yourself and don't let anyone see it!"
After Murong Feng finished speaking, he turned away!
Mei Hong lowered her head in silence, her hatred for Yu Qingli growing deeper. Why did she have to endure all this? Why did she have to become Yu Qingli's substitute? Although Murong Feng had come to her before mostly because he was aroused by her desire, he had never called out Yu Qingli's name in bed.
Now, does this mean that Murong Feng has fallen in love with Yu Qingli!
How could it be possible? Didn't she already drug Murong Feng? Could it be that the drug wasn't working? No! This couldn't be possible!
A cool breeze blew, and Mei Hong felt her legs trembling. She could hardly stand. She bit her lip, straightened her dress, and then walked towards the camp.
When walking out of the woods, Mei Hong met a soldier head-on. She lowered her head quickly, but her legs felt weak because she was not feeling well.
"Are you okay, miss?"
Mei Hong didn't expect the soldier to ask her. She looked up at the man in surprise and said, "Oh, no, it's okay."
The soldier didn't seem to expect Mei Hong to respond to his words. Seeing her pale face in the moonlight, he couldn't help but say, "Miss, I see you don't seem to be feeling well. Do you want me to find a doctor for you?"
Mei Hong shook her head repeatedly. She didn't want to cause trouble for herself. "Thank you, big brother. I'm fine now. I'm afraid I just caught a little wind and have a headache."
"That's good, that's good. It's really cold this night. You'd better go back as soon as possible, girl!"
"Yeah!" Mei Hong did not dare to delay any longer and hurried towards the tent. She felt even more sad. Even an insignificant person knew to care about her.
When they returned to the tent, Yu Qingli was reading a book, while Murong Feng was half leaning on the couch and dozing off. Xiluo stood beside Yu Qingli and served her, lighting the lamp oil from time to time so that Yu Qingli could read more comfortably.
Mei Hong lowered her head and walked in quietly. Yu Qingli seemed not to notice. Xiluo looked up and just frowned.
Mei Hong stood aside politely, like a decoration, but her eyes couldn't help but fall on Murong Feng.
Murong Feng suddenly opened his eyes and met Mei Hong's gaze. His fierce and warning look made Mei Hong lower her head. After a moment, Murong Feng's gaze became gentle again. He got up from the couch, walked to Yu Qingli's side, and reached out to snatch the book from her hand.
"It's getting late and you're not feeling well. Qingli, you should go to bed early." His tone was full of tenderness and concern.
Mei Hong, who was standing aside, lowered her head, but hatred was gushing out of her eyes. Yu Qingli! Since she wants to destroy herself, don't blame me for destroying her!
Yu Qingli was also feeling uncomfortable at this moment. Although she had already married Murong Feng, she had never been so close to Murong Feng in these days. She was really worried that her hatred would burst out from the bottom of her heart and be noticed by this man.
