His hands began to wander freely on Su Rao's body, his actions full of frivolity and disdain.

At first, he was just curious and wanted to know what kind of woman could impress his brother who was always aloof and aloof.

Ever since she cleverly escaped from Fang's mansion last time, King Qi's curiosity and desire for her had grown day by day, becoming an obsession that he could not shake off.

Whatever he pursued was always easily obtained and he never failed.

At this moment, as the distance between them shortened, he could smell her elegant and seductive body fragrance. His desire became stronger and stronger. He could not help but lower his head and kissed her delicate neck...

Su Rao's hair stood up instantly, her heart filled with disgust and anger. She said sternly, "Prince Qi, if you behave like this in such a public place towards your brother's partner, once His Majesty hears about it, will you still be able to keep your seemingly stable position as the crown prince?"

Upon hearing this, a gloom flashed across the King of Qi's face, but he finally calmed down and slowly loosened his grip on Su Rao.

"That's right, I am a little impatient. Once I become the crown prince, everything will not be too late."

Su Rao took the opportunity to escape, but those sharp eyes seemed to still be locked on her from behind, making her feel cold.

Originally, Su Rao thought that relying on the power of the eldest princess, she might be able to buy a glimmer of hope for herself and her child.

But now it seems that if the King of Qi's paranoia and ambition succeed, I will probably not be able to escape the fate of being played in his hands.

Is there really only one way out?

Under the disturbing gaze of Prince Qi, Su Rao did not dare to return directly to her residence. She decided to change her route and go to the place where Prince Yi usually rested.

Su Rao quickly stepped into the room and happened to meet Prince Yi who was concentrating on studying Buddhist scriptures.

His long black hair was casually draped over his shoulders. On his cold face, his deep eyes were calm and were staring at her quietly, especially at her neck.

"What happened?" Prince Yi's voice was low, powerful and majestic.

Su Rao wanted to vent about what had just happened, but considering that this might touch upon Prince Yi's sensitive emotions, she swallowed back her grievances.

"Nothing, I just... wanted to come see you..."

"What's the matter?" Prince Yi asked again, his tone leaving no room for refusal.

Su Rao had no choice but to tell the King of Qi everything that happened on the road, her words filled with indignation and unwillingness.

"It's really hateful that a villain is successful!" Su Rao's voice trembled slightly. Thinking back to the tyrant in her previous life, although he ascended the throne, he killed loyal people and allowed treacherous ministers to be in power, a raging anger burned in her heart.

Just as Su Rao was immersed in memories and anger, Prince Yi suddenly stretched out his hand.

Su Rao was startled and instinctively stepped back, but after King Yi's hand paused in the air for a moment, he still reached out to her firmly, and his cold fingers finally landed lightly on a certain position on her neck.

He rubbed that place repeatedly, and the rough calluses on his hands gently scratched the delicate skin, making Su Rao couldn't help but shrink her neck, but the hand still continued stubbornly, as if to erase all traces that did not belong to him.

Su Rao suddenly realized that there were marks of violation left by the evil King Qi.

She stared at Prince Yi in a daze. Although there was not much expression on his face, his eyes were so deep that they seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, revealing a possessive and protective desire.

Su Rao felt mixed emotions. She stared at the handsome face in front of her, with complicated emotions surging in her heart. She almost wanted to hug his solid body tightly and warm his cold lips with her lips to prove that she belonged to him...

But she couldn't, and could only suppress the throbbing in her heart.

Prince Yi's gaze was deep, locked onto her tightly, capturing the gleaming light in her eyes, those round, bright almond-shaped eyes, pure with a hint of subtle allure.

Her lips, as red as a cherry, outlined a heart-warming curve, which made him involuntarily recall the sweetness he once tasted.

Suddenly, Prince Yi felt a dryness in his throat.

Every cell in his body was clamoring to be closer to her, a primitive desire that went beyond reason.

The distance between the two of them shortened unknowingly, until they were so close that they could clearly hear each other's breathing, tightly entangled with each other.

At that moment, their hearts seemed to resonate. They forgot their identities and tomorrow, and just wanted to immerse themselves in this forbidden and passionate emotional entanglement, even if it was only for a brief moment.

However, this obsession was brilliant but short-lived.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them suddenly pulled themselves out of their blurred feelings.

Prince Yi quickly withdrew his hand that was about to touch her shoulder. Su Rao seemed to be awakened and took two steps back, returning to her usual calmness and aloofness.

"Your Highness, considering that the King of Qi's spies may be keeping a close eye on this place, it would be more appropriate for me to stay here tonight." Su Rao's words were calm and rational, as if the heart-warming scene just now had never happened.

Prince Yi nodded slightly, a complex emotion flashed across his eyes, and then ordered: "Let Mo Yi arrange it."

After saying this, he picked up the Buddhist scriptures on the table and started reading them page by page, trying to use the tranquility of Buddhism to calm the turmoil in his heart.

Mo Yi obeyed the order and prepared a quiet room for Su Rao.

The moment she stepped into the room, Su Rao's strong tenacity instantly collapsed and she looked exhausted.

Faced with such a handsome, charming yet unattainable person, she felt mixed emotions. The pain of only being able to watch from afar and not touch him was too much for her to bear.

After washing up, Su Rao lay on the bed, her consciousness gradually becoming blurred.

In a trance, a faint fragrance quietly invaded the room. The fragrance was like the sandalwood in the ancient temple, so similar to the smell of Prince Yi.

Is it a dream or reality?

She seemed to see his figure, wandering on the edge of the dream.

At this moment, a broad and slightly rough hand seemed to gently brush her cheek. The touch was extremely gentle, as if every touch was suppressing something.

Along with this gentle touch, an affectionate gaze seemed to penetrate the darkness and linger on her for a long time, full of reluctance and attachment.

Su Rao's heartbeat was like a drum, deafening.

It was not until the almost silent footsteps gradually faded away and finally disappeared into the night that she slowly opened her eyes and confirmed that it was not a dream - Prince Yi had indeed been there, and the lingering sandalwood in the air was the best proof.

But she didn't dare open her eyes for too long, for fear that she would sink into this unsolvable curse and be unable to extricate herself.

Su Rao tightened her clothes, staring into the void with empty eyes, her heart filled with helplessness and struggle.

……

The next morning, Su Rao woke up early, but in fact, she had not slept all night.
