"Ah!"

A short gasp escaped Zhao Qinglan's lips before she could even react, she felt herself pressed against a firm and powerful chest.

She reacted and struggled with all her might.

"Li Chen, what are you doing!"

Reaching out, Li Chen embraced Zhao Qinglan's waist, pressing her body close to his chest. He felt the softness and warmth of her against him, and said, "Just hold each other."

Whether it was anger or shame, Zhao Qinglan's cheeks flew with a blush of embarrassment and fury.

"Let me go!"

Faced with Zhao Qinglan's request, Li Chen completely pretended not to hear it.

"I said let me go!" Zhao Qinglan's voice rose two octaves.

Li Chen lowered his head and saw Zhao Qinglan's pretty face flushed with shame and anger, her skin as white as snow, delicate and smooth like a newly peeled egg.

A faint, almost imperceptible fragrance wafted over. It wasn't overpowering, but it felt like an invisible hand teasing the wild beast hidden deep within Li Chen's heart.

Lowering his head, Li Chen leaned in close to Zhao Qinglan's red lips. The distance between them was so close that their breaths mingled together. With a light chuckle, Li Chen murmured in a soft voice, "Are you tired"

The sudden question left Zhao Qinglan unable to comprehend its meaning; she was still struggling with all her might.

Li Chen suddenly tightened his arms, pressing her against him so she couldn't move. He then raised his voice and asked again: "Do you find it tiring to carry on like this alone"

Zhao Qinglan's struggle came to an abrupt end.

I won't say what Zhao Xuanji is like, but your only remaining brother is a useless fool. You still have to guard against me and look around for support Is there anyone you can rely on You've been holding everything up alone this whole time. Aren't you tired

Li Chen's words threw Zhao Qinglan into turmoil.

She didn't expect Li Chen to suddenly say these words.

And every word of it pierced deep into her heart.

"Take a break if you're tired."

Li Chen said in a soft voice, “Actually, you and I, why must we be enemies”

"I am inherently good."

Li Chen's words, like a scumbag before he succeeded.

Zhao Qinglan didn't know what a scumbag was, but she also knew she couldn't easily trust Li Chen.

Leaning closer, Li Chen and Zhao Qinglan were now even closer.

Their distance narrowed, until at a certain point, their lips grazed each other in a barely perceptible touch.

This is not the first time, but this time feels different.

Whether it was Li Chen or Zhao Qinglan, they both felt an electric shock-like stimulation.

After the first touch, Li Chen became greedy and wanted more. Lowering his head again, he pressed his lips tightly against Zhao Qinglan's red lips.

Zhao Qinglan's tender lips were domineeringly occupied by Li Chen, who rudely seized every inch of her beauty.

And this kind of completely taboo contact finally made Zhao Qinglan come to her senses.

With an unknown surge of strength, she struggled free and slapped Li Chen across the face with a resounding smack.

With a crisp, resounding crack.

After it was over, a heavy silence descended upon the carriage.

The carriage swayed, the only sounds the rumble of its wheels and a faint murmur of noise from afar.

"Why don't you hide" Zhao Qinglan asked.

"What are you hiding"

Li Chen rubbed the tip of his tongue against his cheek and then rubbed his numb face, saying, "Let you vent a little, it's good to release some steam, just didn't expect you to be so ruthless."

Zha Qinglan bit her lip and turned her head away, not looking at Li Chen.Chapter 848 Four Test Papers
