The game seemed fair on the surface.
If she could hold back her cries twice out of five times, Xu Sheng would grant her any one request.
Although Zhu Yuexi usually looked down on Xu Sheng, she had to admit that his true strength was probably close to her master’s, and his status in the world was among the highest.
Such a person granting her any request…
Taking it a step further…
What if she made Xu Sheng lick her feet?
The mere thought of that scene made Zhu Yuexi, who was lying across Xu Sheng’s lap, almost laugh out loud. The fiery pain on her behind seemed to lessen a bit.
But…
Could she really hold back twice?
Xu Sheng’s actions just now weren’t that heavy, at most leaving red marks on her body. The little cat-paw paddle probably left paw-shaped red marks too.
But even at that level, she had completely lost control and cried out instinctively. And Xu Sheng’s actions would only get heavier…
Zhu Yuexi wasn’t afraid of pain.
As a cultivator, she had endured all sorts of hardships during body tempering. Even a genius like her couldn’t skip that step.
What she feared was another, stranger sensation.
That feeling was intensely tingling and numbing. It didn’t just feel like it was striking her body, but more like a brand searing her soul.
What was worse was that her body would become even stranger under that peculiar pain.
No…
She absolutely couldn’t let Xu Sheng discover this side of her.
“Get lost! What right do you have to hit me, Xu Sheng?”
Zhu Yuexi lacked confidence, but her mouth remained defiant.
Xu Sheng raised an eyebrow. This time, he wasn’t in a hurry to respond with force, instead suppressing a smile.
“You’re afraid I’ll discover that you enjoy being hit by me, aren’t you, Zhu Yuexi?”
? How could he see that?
No.
Zhu Yuexi felt that if she turned her head now, Xu Sheng would definitely see her terrifyingly red cheeks. She gritted her teeth and buried her face in the bedding.
“Xu Sheng, keep fantasizing about such things. This Holy Maiden doesn’t need to prove anything to you.”
Smack!
“Ah—”
She couldn’t hold back.
She really couldn’t hold back.
This time, Zhu Yuexi was somewhat prepared. Even so, she still couldn’t stop herself from crying out.
What was worse… she felt like she was sweating.
Yes, that’s right, sweat.
A lot of sweat.
Her body trembled a few times. Xu Sheng still wore that “gentle” smile.
“Whether the game continues is not up to you. That slap doesn’t count towards the five. I’m starting again now.”
As he spoke, the little paddle waved up and down in the air, as if the next slap could fall at any moment.
Zhu Yuexi’s eyes widened.
She knew it was too late to refuse now. Xu Sheng had unilaterally started the game, and she no longer had any right to refuse.
What could she do?
Zhu Yuexi held her breath.
If Xu Sheng was serious about the game, then the first of the five slaps would definitely be the lightest. So, Zhu Yuexi couldn’t miss this opportunity.
Smack!
Zhu Yuexi’s body convulsed violently.
Perhaps because she had no vocal release this time, Zhu Yuexi trembled for several seconds without stopping.
His hand began to gently stroke Zhu Yuexi’s back.
“Very good. You actually held back this time.”
Xu Sheng’s gentle tone came from above and behind her. Zhu Yuexi, who had been floating in ecstasy, seemed to regain some clarity. Deep in her heart, a trace of excitement even emerged.
Perhaps she hadn’t realized it yet herself, but being praised by Xu Sheng was actually such a joyful thing.
Feeling Xu Sheng’s hand moving on her back, Zhu Yuexi’s breathing gradually calmed.
“Alright, that’s enough rest~”
Hearing these words, Zhu Yuexi held her breath again.
Then Xu Sheng raised the paddle high.
Smack!
“Ah—”
Zhu Yuexi’s eyes glistened with moisture. This time, her body even writhed against Xu Sheng.
The force of this slap was actually not much different from the previous one.
The real difference was the location Xu Sheng struck.
The first slap was on the flesh. By gritting her teeth hard, she could still endure it.
But Xu Sheng’s second slap…
It was still on the flesh, but different from the first.
The moment it landed, Zhu Yuexi felt a wave of pain, followed immediately by a surge of tingling numbness and pleasure. She almost bounced right off Xu Sheng’s lap.
And Xu Sheng still wore that mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth.
“Oh… sorry, that slap didn’t land in the right place. Should we not count this one?”
“Count it…”
Zhu Yuexi knew she definitely wouldn’t pass this hurdle.
For the remaining three slaps, Xu Sheng wouldn’t hold back.
It might be the force, or it might be the location.
In any case, he wouldn’t let her win.
I’m so foolish, really.
Zhu Yuexi felt like crying but had no tears. The sensation from just now still lingered in her body. She couldn’t even distinguish what she was feeling right now.
There was no time for Zhu Yuexi to think any further. Xu Sheng raised the paddle again.
Smack!
The third time.
Smack!
The fourth time.
Without exception, Zhu Yuexi couldn’t hold back her cries.
For someone with her constitution, and with an experienced old hand like Xu Sheng handling her, being able to endure the first time was already impressive enough.
If someone lifted Zhu Yuexi’s clothes now, they would probably see clear, distinct pink little cat paw prints.
Zhu Yuexi gasped for breath heavily. By now, a bit of glistening moisture had trickled from the corner of her mouth. Even her eyes had become dazed.
Xu Sheng’s hand gently stroked, feeling somewhat surprised.
Probably sweat.
“Zhu Yuexi, yesterday, just using his mouth, you were already like this. Today, just hitting you with this paddle, you’re like this again. Have you recognized your own constitution by now?”
Zhu Yuexi couldn’t answer Xu Sheng. Perhaps her stubborn mouth would only soften at a time like this.
Xu Sheng’s hand was somewhat gentle. Zhu Yuexi felt a bit more at ease again.
“For the first four slaps, you held back for one. I said if you hold back for two, I’ll grant you any wish. You have to hold back for this last one.”
Hearing Xu Sheng’s words, Zhu Yuexi had no strength to respond, only thinking in her heart how she could possibly hold back…
Xu Sheng raised the paddle, feigning several high raises over Zhu Yuexi’s body. Anyone watching would think this would be an especially forceful slap.
Xu Sheng’s hand finally lifted high.
Imagining the sensation of it landing, Zhu Yuexi felt a trace of fear in her heart, but what was more was actually a sense of anticipation.
This time… how pleasurable would it be?
Her body even arched unconsciously, as if welcoming Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng’s paddle descended.
Zhu Yuexi froze. The ecstasy she had just been floating in was shaken off by this反差,清醒了几分.
Xu Sheng hadn’t used any force at all. The paddle was just placed on her body.
Zhu Yuexi turned her head back in confusion.
Xu Sheng smiled at her:
“Good, you held back twice. I’ll grant you any one condition.”
