Return of the Pearl

Shufangzhai

Ziwei carefully changed the medicine for Xiao Yun. She knew very well that Qianlong was concerned about Xiao Yun, so she patted Xiao Yun's shoulder gently and motioned her to go out first. Xiao Yun understood what Ziwei meant and smiled at Ziwei. The smile was full of warmth and tacit understanding.

Xiao Yun slowly stood up and walked out with light steps. At this time, Qianlong had been waiting outside anxiously, his eyes fixed on the door. The moment he saw Xiao Yun appear, he couldn't wait to greet him and asked with concern: "How is it? Does the wound still hurt?"

Xiao Yun looked at Qianlong's anxious expression, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She threw herself into Qianlong's arms, leaned close to his ear, and whispered softly and playfully, "Hongli, have you forgotten? I can't feel the pain. You should ask yourself, does it hurt?"

After hearing what Xiao Yun said, Qianlong was stunned at first, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face. He realized that he was indeed worried and confused.

At this moment, Qianlong seemed to see Xiao Yun, the woman who once laughed and played with him, the woman who made his heart beat fast. His heart was filled with emotion, and his love for Xiao Yun became even stronger.

Xiao Yun's words not only made Qianlong feel her intelligence and thoughtfulness, but also made him cherish the time he spent with her even more.

Qianlong hugged Xiao Yun tightly, as if he wanted to melt her into his body. He whispered, "You always make me anxious, angry, and distressed."

Xiao Yun responded with a smile: "Then you must love me well." The two smiled at each other, their eyes full of affection and love.

Qianlong raised a playful smile and said gently, "How about I treat you well now?"

Before Xiao Yun could respond, Qianlong leaned over, his fiery gaze fixed on Xiao Yun, as if he wanted to suck her soul into it.

At this moment, the soft sunlight shines on them through the window, casting a faint halo on their figures. The breeze blows gently, blowing the gauze by the window, making it look like a dream.

The air is filled with a faint floral scent, which comes from the flowers blooming in the yard, adding a touch of sweetness to the romantic atmosphere.

When the two were very close to each other, Qianlong's lips gently touched Xiao Yun's lips. It was a kiss as soft as a feather, but it made Xiao Yun's body tremble as if he was electrocuted.

Immediately afterwards, Qianlong's kiss became passionate and deep. His lips pressed tightly against Xiao Yun's lips, and he sucked as if he wanted to suck away her soul.

Xiao Yun's hands involuntarily climbed up Qianlong's neck. She tilted her head slightly to respond to Qianlong's kiss. Qianlong's tongue gently pried open Xiao Yun's teeth and entwined with her tongue. The blending of their saliva brought an indescribable sense of intimacy. Their breaths intertwined, creating a wonderful and ambiguous atmosphere.

In this kiss, time seemed to stand still, and the whole world seemed to be left with only the two of them. Qianlong's kiss was full of desire, and Xiao Yun was sinking into this kiss, unable to extricate herself from Qianlong's love.

The sun shone on them, the breeze ruffled their hair, and the fragrance of flowers surrounded them, creating an incredibly romantic world that made their kiss even more affectionate and intoxicating.

After a long time, Xiao Yun was panting and her breathing had not yet stabilized. Qianlong hugged her waist tightly, fearing that she would collapse due to exhaustion.

Xiao Yun's big, watery eyes glared at Qianlong in reproach, and said coquettishly, "You, you are bullying me!"

Seeing her like this, Qianlong couldn't help laughing and said teasingly, "Girl, didn't you ask me to love you well?"

Xiao Yun's face instantly turned red with shame, just like the sunset in the sky, gorgeous and moving. She was about to say something when she heard Ziwei's footsteps.

Xiao Yun was so frightened that she quickly pushed Qianlong away and used all her strength to push Qianlong away. Qianlong was caught off guard by her sudden action and couldn't help laughing when he saw her panic-stricken look.

Qianlong thought to himself, this girl is really interesting. Ziwei clearly already knows about their relationship, so isn't she just trying to cover up her mistake? Does she think she can hide it from Ziwei like this? Qianlong looked at Xiao Yun's nervous expression, his heart filled with pity. He knew Xiao Yun was shy, so he didn't expose her, but just smiled at her dotingly.

Ziwei walked out of the house and saw the appearance of Xiao Yun and Qianlong. She naturally understood what had happened. She looked at Xiao Yun with a smile, her eyes full of understanding and tolerance.

When Xiao Yun saw Ziwei's eyes, she felt even more embarrassed. She lowered her head, not daring to look into Ziwei's eyes.

Qianlong walked forward, gently held Ziwei's hand, and said to her: "Ziwei, don't laugh at Yun'er, she is just shy."

Ziwei smiled and nodded, "How could I laugh at her, Father Huang, I know the relationship between you two, I wish you all the best."

After hearing Ziwei's words, Xiao Yun was even more moved. She knew that Ziwei was really doing this for her own good and would not look down on her because of this matter. She raised her head and looked at Qianlong and Ziwei, her heart filled with warmth. At this moment, she felt that she was the happiest person in the world.

Xiao Yun made up her mind that she also wanted to do her part for Ziwei and Erkang. Qianlong stayed in Shufangzhai for a while and enjoyed a warm meal before slowly leaving. Xiao Yun offered to see Qianlong off, as she had something to say to him.

The two walked side by side to the door of Shufangzhai, and Xiao Yun called out softly, "Hongli."

Qianlong turned his head and looked at her tenderly. Xiao Yun took a deep breath and said with courage, "This time you have to help Erkang and Ziwei and make them happy."

Qianlong stared at Xiao Yun, feeling a mix of emotions in his heart. He knew that Xiao Yun and Ziwei had a good relationship, so her request was naturally sincere.

Qianlong gently held Xiao Yun's hand and said, "Yun'er, don't worry, I will." Xiao Yun smiled with relief after hearing Qianlong's words.

The two of them were affectionate for a while, their eyes met, as if time had stopped at this moment. Xiao Yun leaned in Qianlong's arms, feeling his warmth and strength. Qianlong gently stroked Xiao Yun's hair, smelled the faint fragrance on her body, his heart filled with tenderness and sweetness.

The sunlight shines on them, illuminating their figures leaning against each other. The breeze blows gently, blowing the corners of their clothes, as if cheering for their love.

They exchanged some heartfelt words before reluctantly parting. Xiao Yun looked at Qianlong's departing back, her heart full of anticipation. She believed that Qianlong would make the right decision for her, Ziwei and Erkang.
