The prince is fierce: Who dares to steal my woman?

Liu Xiyu smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling with teasing and anticipation: "Commander Xiao, I have given you the opportunity. Whether you can compose a love song together in my boudoir depends on your true abilities."

After speaking, she lifted her skirt and walked towards her boudoir first, leaving behind a captivating silhouette, the faint fragrance of flowers in the air, and endless reverie.

In everyone's eyes, since Liu Xiyu could support more than 300 male lovers and even seduce her own younger brother, it was natural that she could also go to Xiao Jinyan's boudoir for a night of passion on their first meeting. This was very much in line with her image as a harlot and made it easier for her to hide her true face.

However, Liu Xiyu's actions were out of necessity, because the matters she was about to discuss with Xiao Jinyan were matters that could not be revealed to outsiders. These included deceiving the emperor, treason, and assassination—any of which was a capital offense.

Xiao Jinyan gave Luo Chuan a subtle look without making a sound. The look was full of meaning, as if to say, "Everything is under control. There is no need to worry."

Then, he took steady steps, walking side by side with Liu Xiyu, through the long corridors with carved beams and painted rafters, slowly making his way towards Liu Xiyu's boudoir.

Inside the boudoir, the candlelight flickered, illuminating a room filled with warmth and mystery. Liu Xiyu gently closed the carved wooden door, and as she turned away, her eyes held both urgency and wariness.

“Xiao Jinyan,” Liu Xiyu’s expression changed instantly, her tone accusatory, “Is the Crown Princess in your hands? Where did you take her?”

Faced with Liu Xiyu's questioning, Xiao Jinyan smiled slightly, with a hint of mockery: "Your Highness, if you want to know the whereabouts of the Crown Princess, you'll probably have to agree to one condition first."

Xiao Jinyan thought to himself, "Liu Xiyu, you slut, you've caused me so much trouble, and you've done all sorts of despicable things like fighting amongst yourselves. You almost killed me! Today I'm going to teach you a lesson so you'll remember this!"

Liu Xiyu frowned, a flash of anger in her eyes, and said sharply, "Xiao Jinyan, how dare you negotiate with me? This is the Princess's residence, my territory. What do you think you can do?"

Xiao Jinyan shook his head slightly and said disdainfully, "Your Highness, please don't be impulsive. If you try to solve the problem with violence, you will only keep the truth hidden forever. So, don't think about killing me easily, otherwise, you will never know the whereabouts of the Crown Princess."

After speaking, he gently straightened his sleeves. His calm and composed demeanor, as if he had everything under control, made Liu Xiyu's heart skip a beat.

Liu Xiyu's stunningly beautiful face gleamed with an unyielding resolve. She parted her lips slightly and asked, "Xiao Jinyan, what conditions do you want for me to reveal the Crown Princess's whereabouts?"

Xiao Jinyan's lips curled into a playful smile. His gaze swept over Liu Xiyu, finally settling on her legendary, incomparably beautiful jade feet.

“Your Highness, I have heard that you are a beauty of unparalleled grace, especially your exquisitely carved jade feet, which are unmatched in the world. If Your Highness would deign to allow me to see your beauty, or even to play with them for a while, then I will naturally tell you everything I know about the Crown Princess.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiyu's face instantly turned icy cold, her eyes seemingly frozen in frost: "Xiao Jinyan, how dare you be so disrespectful and rude to me! I am of noble birth and high status, how can I tolerate such insolence from a lowly person like you!"

Xiao Jinyan, however, seemed unconcerned by her anger, maintaining his playful smile: "Your Highness, why be angry? My request was merely to enjoy your jade feet; I did not overstep any bounds, nor did I mention anything as disrespectful as sexual intercourse. What is there to be so surprised about? Besides, if Your Highness is unwilling, what about the safety of the Crown Princess…"

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Xiyu clenched her teeth and made fists, clearly trying her best to suppress her anger and resentment. After a fierce internal struggle, she finally spoke slowly, her voice tinged with helplessness: "Fine, Xiao Jinyan, if you can bring the Crown Princess back to me safely, I will do as you say and let you... let you play with my feet."

After saying this, a complex expression flashed across Liu Xiyu's face, a mixture of humiliation, resentment, and, more than anything, a helpless compromise with the situation.

Upon hearing this, a glint of triumph flashed in Xiao Jinyan's eyes. He walked lightly to the bedside, sat down slowly, and then gently patted his firm thighs. His voice was deep and magnetic: "Your Highness, please remove your shoes and socks and place your jade feet here."

Liu Xiyu's face showed a hint of reluctance, but she had no choice but to obey the order. She moved gracefully to the bedside, her slender fingers gently untying her shoelaces, taking off her exquisite embroidered shoes, and then carefully removing her gossamer-thin stockings.

Those feet were like pieces of warm, white jade, small and exquisite, every inch exuding aristocratic reserve and gentleness. She hesitated for a moment, then finally mustered her courage, gently sat down on the edge of the bed, and slowly placed her feet on Xiao Jinyan's warm thighs.

Xiao Jinyan's gaze was instantly drawn to those jade-like feet. They were exquisitely delicate, as if imbued with the essence of heaven and earth, each toe radiating an alluring luster. He couldn't help but admire them, and his hands naturally reached out, grasping one foot in each hand, and began to gently and delicately knead them. His technique was skillful, his strength just right, neither too forceful nor too gentle, as if he were handling the most precious treasure in the world.

At first, Liu Xiyu's face was full of disgust and shyness, her legs slightly curled up, as if she wanted to escape this sudden intimacy. But as time went by, Xiao Jinyan's gentle touch, which seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, gradually melted away the barriers in her heart.

Liu Xiyu began to feel an unprecedented sense of comfort and relaxation. Two delicate blushes rose on her cheeks, and a subtle smile unconsciously curved her lips as she let out a soft, slightly coquettish hum. Her feet trembled slightly in Xiao Jinyan's palms, as if silently expressing the fluttering in her heart.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinyan smiled faintly, her gaze softening even more: "Your Highness, are you sensitive? Such a reaction is truly endearing."

Liu Xiyu parted her lips slightly and said, "Xiao Jinyan, how exactly did you know that I have a sensitive constitution?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyan smiled knowingly: "I can tell just by looking at the princess's expression."

Liu Xiyu frowned slightly: "What's wrong with my expression?"

Xiao Jinyan's gaze slowly moved upwards, finally settling on Liu Xiyu's flushed cheeks, and the smile on his lips deepened: "The princess's expression is very alluring, as if it hides endless tenderness and desire, making one unable to resist wanting to explore more."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiyu's heart tightened. Her body was exceptionally sensitive, and if Xiao Jinyan continued to play with her like this, she would become unable to stop.

So she frantically tried to pull her jade-like feet back, but it was as if she were bound by invisible chains, unable to move.

Xiao Jinyan reacted with unusual speed. He firmly grasped Liu Xiyu's jade feet and leaned down without saying a word, his warm lips gently touching her delicate and smooth skin.
