242 A Great Bargain (Extra Chapter 10/4 for the Reader "Sweeping the Tomb")

Hearing this, Ji Shisu quickly retorted, "Don't talk nonsense. You're the only one qualified to wear my 'green hat'."

As he said this, he suddenly felt that something was off about his words and quickly added, "And you're not allowed to give me one either!"

This guy was so clumsy.

Zhao Luoning didn't want to pay him any heed. She was still immersed in the huge and juicy deep - house gossip that her love rival turned out to be her sister - in - law.

Although this story was quite shocking, Zhao Luoning's misgivings about Lüqu were dispelled. Moreover, she felt a bit more admiration for her.

Marrying Ji Shisu and having an abortion, these were all decisions she made on her own. The seemingly gentle and frail woman actually had such determination.

She was truly an extraordinary woman!

Zhao Luoning sighed, "I never thought Shi Jian and Lüqu would have such a heart - rending past."

The night came gently, just like the unpredictability of life. No one knew what would happen next.

Zhao Luoning looked at Ji Shisu again.

What about Ji Shisu's story? What about those eighteen years before they met that she knew nothing about?

Shi Han once told her that Ji Shisu was a man of true emotions.

Zhao Luoning didn't believe it at first. She thought that if he was a man of true emotions, then all the playboys in the world would be top - notch lovers.

It was only now that she understood what Shi Han meant.

At first, she thought he was a philanderer, but later she found that he was extremely devoted to her.

At first, she thought he was arrogant and conceited, but later she found that he was both civilly and militarily talented.

The outside world had labeled him with many negative tags.

Dissolute, a good - for - nothing, and cruel.

He never cared.

He was defending the country but still used an alias. He didn't even try to clear his name.

Thinking of their aliases, Zhao Luoning also found it interesting: Bai Shaoqing, Bai Shaopei, Bai Shaoming, Bai Shaotang.

Wait! A sudden flash of inspiration hit Zhao Luoning.

There was another one, Bai Shaoyu.

Oh my god! She just realized that the emperor's alias was actually...

At this moment, Zhao Luoning finally realized how powerful her husband's background was.

The Sima Mountain Villa could dominate the area because it was supported by the national treasury of the Wu State.

Ji Shisu could have tens of thousands of elite soldiers because he had the support of the emperor of the Chen State!

Zhao Luoning stared at Ji Shisu.

She found that she suddenly didn't recognize him.

Was this still the good - for - nothing second young master?

Was this like buying a discarded item at a low price only to find out that it was a priceless treasure?

She had really struck gold!

She wondered what Zhao Luoyue would think if she knew about this.

"What are you looking at?"

Ji Shisu sensed her gaze and suddenly turned his head.

Zhao Luoning didn't have time to withdraw her gaze and was caught red - handed. Even though she couldn't see clearly in the night, she knew he had a mischievous smile on his face.

"I'm looking at you, the world's number - one big fool!"

The big fool who had borne so many bad reputations but never explained!

When Zhao Luoning said this, she felt a twinge of pain in her heart for him.

She remembered that she had misunderstood him a lot in the past.

Ji Shisu clearly wasn't thinking in the same way as Zhao Luoning.

"Fine, I'll make you pay for those words."

The price he was asking for was clear to both of them.

Again?!

Ever since Ji Shisu had his first taste of love, he wouldn't let her go without two or three times a night.

Where did Ji Shisu get so much energy?

Wasn't he afraid of exhausting himself?

Even if he had the stamina, she couldn't take it.

She was always sore and achy when she got up every morning.

She really wanted to take a break.

Zhao Luoning quickly stood up and ran away.

How could Ji Shisu be willing to let her go?

She was still holding his hand. With a slight tug from Ji Shisu, Zhao Luoning, who was about to stand up, fell into his arms.

All her complaints were silenced by his passionate kiss.

This wasn't the first kiss between them.

But every time, Ji Shisu could feel Zhao Luoning's innocent shyness.

The more she was like this, the more he cherished her and the more he wanted to "love" her.

Ji Shisu had been with many women who were well - versed in the ways of love, but none of them could make him lose himself like Zhao Luoning. All she had to do was smile or take a gentle breath, and he was lost.

He just wished he could die in this gentle embrace and never wake up.

Ji Shisu was lost again.

Yes, lost.

It was just a simple kiss.

Just feeling her ragged breath leave a mark on his cheek.

Just holding her and smelling the fragrance on her body.

He was lost.

They were in the dark, but it seemed as bright as day around them.

It was like thousands of flowers were blooming around them, and the gurgling water was singing merrily not far away.

Everything was so bright and beautiful that it was like a fairyland.

In this fairyland, the brightest and most beautiful scenery was Zhao Luoning in his arms.

Zhao Luoning in his arms, as bright as a peach blossom and as beautiful as a celestial being.

Zhao Luoning had already forgotten to breathe. She could only feel Ji Shisu's slightly cold lips turn warm when they touched.

He was gradually going deeper, deeper into her body and deeper into her heart.

Brilliant sparks burst in her mind. All her instincts and the little bit of remaining reason were annihilated by his increasingly passionate and demanding kiss.

He was so domineering that he wanted to possess her completely.

He could generously accept someone else's child, but he couldn't stand someone staring at her for an extra second.

He could tolerate his concubines being half - hearted towards him, but he wouldn't allow her to think about anyone else for a moment.

His big hand slipped into the cloak and landed on Zhao Luoning's flat abdomen.

Why was there still no sign?

As Ji Shisu was thinking this, he was about to make further moves.

A cold wind blew into the cloak, which slightly brought Zhao Luoning back to her senses.

"Don't. It's not good if someone sees us."

Grabbing his hand, Zhao Luoning managed to utter this sentence with great difficulty under his intense attack, preventing him from going any further.

"Okay, then let's go back to the tent."

Ji Shisu reluctantly left her red lips but said something that made her even more embarrassed.

Go back to the tent?!

No way! She'd rather die.

The tents were built in a row. Any noise could be clearly heard by the people outside.

She didn't want to ruin her reputation because of him.

But he had already picked her up horizontally, thinking about how he was going to have her later.

"Put me down."

If it weren't for the fact that his kiss had made her weak all over, Zhao Luoning would never have let him have his way.

Ji Shisu wasn't willing to let go. He had finally got her, so how could he let go just because of her words?

He was still planning to give the old matriarch good news before they returned to Huangcheng.

This matter was extremely urgent and couldn't be delayed for a moment.

Just as they were arguing, the originally quiet military camp suddenly became chaotic.

"General Lin!"
