Mission: Seduce the Master!

It took approximately five to ten minutes for Li Yuilan to regain her composure after being moved by Xie Qing's confession.

She wiped away her tears and straightened up, assuming a more ordinary appearance. Despite her attempts to hide her embarrassment and joy, she wasn't very successful—every now and then, a cheerful laugh would escape her lips.

Xie Qing seemed to have endured a calamity—his face showed relief after Li Yuilan stopped crying and regained her composure. He felt too awkward seeing someone from his circle cry.

He moved to sit beside the girl and, taking her hand, silently stroked her palm with his thumb. Li Yuilan leaned against him, resting her head on the man's chest. They were silent, but their heartbeats spoke for them.

***

Early in the morning, Xie Qing woke up to the pleasant scent of lavender and a soft sensation on the left side of his body. Turning his head, he saw the beautiful girl Li Yuilan sleeping peacefully, quietly dozing.

"Oh, right…"

Last night, the girl had mustered enough courage to ask to sleep with him. Well, although nothing happened and they truly just slept, Xie Qing felt refreshed.

"Even her breathing is cute…" Xie Qing thought, feeling her warm breath on him, and he smiled softly, gently stroking her hair, doing so carefully so as not to wake her.

But whether the man was not careful enough or for some other reason, Li Yuilan opened her eyes slightly, then closed them again and, letting out a weak moan, whispered softly, "Brother Xie, is it morning already…?"

Her tired, sleepy voice was so cute that Xie Qing felt as if a sword had pierced his heart. He smiled and, gently stroking her head, replied, "Yes. But you can sleep a little longer." The man noticed that it was close to six in the morning. Although he usually got up for training at this time, today…

"Really? Then… lie down with me, okay?" Li Yuilan whispered and, hugging Xie Qing, pressed her nose against his chest.

Perhaps, still half-asleep, she didn't quite understand her actions and acted more decisively and boldly than usual. Therefore, the man was a little surprised but still did not refuse her soft embrace.

So they lay there until one in the afternoon. When Li Yuilan finally woke up and realized her actions, she clutched her head, her face red as a tomato, trying to hide from Xie Qing.

"How embarrassing! How awkward!" she muttered incessantly, still refusing to show her beautiful face to Xie Qing, who watched her actions with amusement.

In any case, he did not mind her tenderness—why not? He himself enjoyed sleeping like that, as sleep for him was just a method to pass or while away time.

"Come on now," Xie Qing soothed with a calm voice, restraining himself from teasing her further, which would only embarrass the girl more, "It's alright. Isn't it good that you were able to sleep well?"

"N-no, that's not it…" Li Yuilan replied softly.

She bit her lower lip and clenched her fists, her face red—it seemed to become even redder. Such a strong reaction made Xie Qing tilt his head in puzzlement.

It seemed that seeing Xie Qing's puzzlement, Li Yuilan only became more embarrassed and hid her face in the pillow, as if trying to hide from the whole world. The man looked at her and could not understand what was happening.

"Sometimes I really don't understand what's going on in women's minds. I think even the Heavenly Emperor has trouble with this skill," Xie Qing thought, expressing rather dangerous thoughts with a carefree face.

What Li Yuilan was thinking was quite unusual for her character. Despite being a shy girl…

"I couldn't prepare for this night and just fell asleep from the stress. And I even prepared pills to prevent pregnancy…"

…she had very bold thoughts.

Well, although it might not seem like it at first, she had grand plans for last night. Xie Qing's words had ignited a passion within her, and her love had become so intense that it turned into a burning desire to unite their bodies.

In Li Yuilan's mind, when a man and a woman unite their bodies, it is the highest form of expressing love. Therefore, her thoughts were not about lust but rather about the desire to express her love—to respond to Xie Qing's feelings.

However, she was so nervous that she couldn't resist and fell asleep from the stress, ultimately missing her chance to give her first time to the man she loved.

This feeling of disappointment in herself only intensified her embarrassment and frustration. After all, she had to return to her Master today.

"Maybe next time… I'll still see him again after the end of the seclusion…" the girl thought and smiled, but then a realization struck her: "But… I'm not the only one for him, right? Brother Xie still has other women, and there are many who want to become his wife. Who knows if he will have time for me next time."

These thoughts were like a virus, infecting her entire mind in seconds. The realization that she might ultimately be overshadowed by other women… Li Yuilan placed her hand on her heart, feeling a sharp pain.

"Kh…"

She gritted her teeth in frustration. Her insecurities began to surface, and her negative feelings intensified.

And all of this culminated in a single action. One that even Xie Qing did not expect.

-wah.

"Eh?"

Xie Qing raised an eyebrow, and his eyes widened as he felt a soft, warm, and moist touch on his lips.

Before him was Li Yuilan's face, her closed eyes, anxious breath, and delicate, seemingly fragile, yet strong enough hands wrapped around his back.

And her prolonged, innocent, yet passionate kiss, which was limited to the touch of lips to lips, but no less beautiful because of it.

The sweetness Xie Qing felt was as beautiful as honey. And the scent of lavender from Li Yuilan's hair, her warm breath, her gentle hands…

Every particle, every touch was reflected in his mind a hundredfold, making his heart race.

"Ah…"

He was shocked into silence. Xie Qing never expected that the first one to initiate a kiss would be none other than Li Yuilan. Her character was too shy for this.

However, despite his shock, the man gently embraced her waist and then responded to her kiss with much greater passion. His hands gently caressed Li Yuilan's body—it was not vulgar but rather a tender touch.

"Mmm…"

Li Yuilan liked it. She moaned through clenched lips, making the sound muffled but no less cute. Her breath quickened, and her eyelids opened for a fraction of a second and closed almost immediately.

"Mmmh!"

Li Yuilan shivered as she felt Xie Qing's attempt to turn the ordinary, light kiss into something more passionate. At first, the girl was too embarrassed and only responded weakly, but then she bravely opened her mouth, allowing Xie Qing's tongue to enter.

And then came the moment of X, their tongues intertwined like snakes, and their passion was conveyed in every breath and every particle of their bodies.

Soon enough, without even realizing it, both Xie Qing and Li Yuilan found themselves on the bed. And then, Li Yuilan, realizing her position, merely swallowed after the kiss and, with anxious breath, said, "Please… ha-a-a… m-make me your woman."
