The Birth Of A Villainess

Chapter 237 - Energy To Spare

After they have returned back to the Qu residence, the first thing Lin Xiaofei did was to take a clean bath for herself. The dirt and sweat that she got from taking a walk in the mountain while catching a few preys on the process of it had made her clothes a little bit dirty.

She peeled the clothes off her body and submerged herself in the bathtub which was filled with warm water by her maids.

Washing away the dirt from her body, Lin Xiaofei wondered what her husband could be doing now? The moment he had made sure that she entered their courtyard safe and sound, he parted with her and went out by himself.

That night was surely an eventful night as she finally caught Yu Fangzhu but it was harder than she thought. She wasn't talking about their method of capturing the prince, but because she had too many emotional thoughts than she thought when this would happen. She certainly didn't have any feelings left for the coward prince, but she still felt sorry for her past self for being too foolish and fell in love with him..

And of course, that love was a one-sided feeling that he used against her.

After making sure that she was completely clean and fresh out of the water, Lin Xiaofei wrapped herself with a clean and soft robe. She had forgotten to take a dress for her inside the bathing chamber when she entered it and thus, she could only hope that when she went out of there, no one would be inside the bedchamber.

As usual, Lin Xiaofei had trouble being seen by other people. She never showed herself to her maids and let them dress her up even when they pouted at her. The only person who achieved to have broken from her defensive walls was only Qu Xing Xu. And that man had really become her husband.

When she stepped out of the bathing chamber, Lin Xiaofei was surprised at seeing the man seated on one of the chairs inside the room. Speak of the devil and he would appear as they would always say.

"Where were you?" she striked first before he could tease her. Qu Xing Xu's blazing eyes when he saw her coming out of the bathing chamber with only a robe to cover herself was making her feel weak in the legs.

And as expected, Qu Xing Xu didn't waste this chance to go over her. He stood up from the chair and started to stride towards her with a knowing smile on his lips.

"I was ordering my men to fetch some of the prey we caught in the mountain." No one in the world would ever call the prince and his men a prey that needed fetching, other than Qu Xing Xu. "I had my men throw them to the dungeon."

"Hm." She hummed her response and avoided him, just as he could stand in front of her. She quickly sidestepped and was planning to move towards the wardrobe attached to the wall when she felt a strong arm snaking around her waist and before she could raise a protest, her back crashed against his hard chest.

"Now, now. Don't run away." Lin Xiaofei heard him whisper to her ear. A blush appeared in her cheeks and neck, and she wished he wouldn't see it.

"Shouldn't  you be tired after digging the ground and setting that trap?" She tried to wrestle her way out of this by using her level tiredness.

Qu Xing Xu nodded his head and thoughtfully thought of it. "You're right. I am tired after a certain lady ordered me around like a bull." He could feel her glare and resistance when she heard him. But he didn't let go. "But I do have a lot of energy to spare to roll in bed with my wife."

Lin Xiaofei closed her eyes. Counting numbers and chanting mantras to keep the temptation away. But she didn't realize that it wasn't supposed to be Qu Xing Xu who should be doing some calming ritual to ease the fire blazing inside him.

? Unfortunately, the man had not heard her prayers as he lifted her with one hand and gently threw her to the bed with a soft thump. Lin Xiaofei glared at him as she bounced off the bed a bit and landed again.

Seeing her with that defiant glare she's shooting at him, Qu XIng Xu didn't know what she was trying to imitate, a cat that had its claws out or a mermaid tempting men to abandon their ships and jump to the water.

But either of them was good enough for him to get sucked into her irresistible charms.

"Don't you want to take a bath first? I'll have the servants draw your bath." Still not wanting to surrender, Lin Xiaofei wanted to divert his attention and remind him of his tendency of ridding any dirt from his body.

Sadly, Qu Xing Xu ignored her reminder and started to untie his blue waistband around his hips. "I already took a bath before I came here so you don't have to worry about rolling with me dirty. Besides, I think we can share a bath later."

Lin Xiaofei stared blankly at him but soon surrendered to her fate.

Chuckling at her changing expressions, Qu Xing Xu rubbed her nose with a finger and said, "If you really don't want it, we can do this again when you're not tired."

He thought that his wife was probably tired after all the events that happened in the mountain and he wanted to be considerate even though he really wanted to do some exercises in bed with her.

But before he could really give up on the idea and just spare her for the night, Lin Xiaofei, however, pulled him by his lapel and kissed him.

Their lips crashed against each other like two planets colliding and with a great flash of explosion, the kiss brought out the deepest and most raw desire that was deep inside them. She put her arms around his neck and brought him closer, her lips slightly parting to let his tongue slip through inside.

'So much for my resistance.' Lin Xiaofei thought to herself as she undid the restraints keeping her from doing this with him.
