She beckoned to Pei Chiyao, gesturing for him to come closer.
Pei Chiyao was puzzled, but seeing Zhi Yao's mysterious demeanor, he approached her nonetheless.
The young lady stepped forward and placed a light kiss on Pei Chiyao's cheek. The kiss was so gentle, it was akin to a feather brushing his face.
Is that it?
Just as Pei Chiyao thought those two words and was about to speak, Zhi Yao's kisses rained down on his face, one after another, like a seal stamping its mark.
For a moment, the only sound in the room was the soft "bo" of Zhi Yao's lips pressing against Pei Chiyao's face, one after another.
Until the final kiss landed, Zhi Yao finally stopped, plopping down on Pei Chiyao's lap.
"That tired me out," the young lady said, wiping her brow as if she had just completed a routine task.
Catching her slightly smug gaze, Pei Chiyao couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
"See! You said before that you're easy to appease. I just used the method you mentioned, so you can't be mad this time, right?"
Pei Chiyao: "..."
That wasn't the kind of kiss he had in mind!
Zhi Yao touched her lips, feeling like she had almost kissed them numb. She stood up to check her reflection, to see if her lips had turned red.
But just as she rose from Pei Chiyao's lap, he grabbed her wrist and with a slight tug, she spun around and landed back in his embrace.
"Watch closely, I'll only show you once."
His hand cradled the back of Zhi Yao's head, his grip firm as his burning kiss landed on her lips.
The sudden move startled the young lady, causing her to clutch Pei Chiyao's clothes tightly, like a fish lying helpless on the shore.
He nibbled on Zhi Yao's lips, causing her to wince in pain and open her mouth. Pei Chiyao seized the opportunity, invading ravenously...
After about five minutes, when Zhi Yao was completely breathless, he finally released her.
This time, she didn't need to look to know her lips had swollen.
"That's the method I mentioned."
The man's voice was hoarse.
But the moment she saw the contents, her eyes widened in shock.
It was a photo of a tail.
Zhi Yao recognized it instantly - it was her mother's tail!!
Tears streamed down her face as her golden eyes misted over.
Through the blur, she saw another message from the same unknown number.
Unknown number: If you want to see your mother, come to me tonight. Don't tell Pei Chiyao. Address: ...
The message sent a chill through Zhi Yao's heart. She quickly wiped her tears, glancing at Pei Chiyao beside her working on documents, afraid he would notice her distress.
The young lady's heart raced.
The tail of a Nine-Tailed Fox is an extremely precious treasure. Having it severed would be agonizingly painful, and just imagining her mother's pain made Zhi Yao's heart ache too.
She wanted to rush to the given address immediately to uncover the truth.
But Zhi Yao quickly regained her composure.
Going alone would undoubtedly be dangerous. She knew her own limitations, but the sender forbade her from telling Pei Chiyao...
She glanced up at Pei Chiyao furtively.
And he happened to catch her gaze.
Noticing her reddened eyes, Pei Chiyao's brow furrowed. "What's wrong, little crybaby?"
He pulled her into an embrace with one arm. Zhi Yao sniffled and, after much deliberation, handed him her phone.
The sender only said not to tell Pei Chiyao, but she didn't tell him - he saw it himself!
That shouldn't count as breaking the rules, right?
Pei Chiyao took the phone, his expression darkening.
In the next moment, he dialed the unknown number.
Unsurprisingly, it was a disconnected number.
He enlarged the photo, studying it carefully before showing it to Zhi Yao. "Are you sure this is your mother's tail?"
