Yang Rou and Ni Qingyao exchanged a glance and nodded, "Then go quickly and return safely. It’s okay if you can’t find it, your safety is the most important."

They were very worried about Yang Xiao’s health, but they couldn’t let Yang Cheng take risks.

"Don’t worry, I’m just going to buy some medicinal ingredients. It’s not dangerous."

Yang Cheng gave them a reassurance, then left with Cheng Ruonan.

After dinner, Kong Lingwen called, and Yang Cheng immediately changed clothes to go meet her.

Just as he walked out of the hotel, a car stopped in front of Yang Cheng.

Only after getting in did he realize that Kong Lingwen was driving herself today. She was wearing a light pink cheongsam, her hair styled in large waves, clearly well-groomed, with light makeup on her face.

Kong Lingwen’s face was already exquisite, but dressed like this, she was stunningly beautiful, instantly mesmerizing Yang Cheng.

"Don’t keep staring at me."

Kong Lingwen spoke somewhat awkwardly, with a barely noticeable blush on her cheeks.

"You look so beautiful today, just like a fairy from the heavens."

Yang Cheng complimented sincerely, having thought she’d show up in men’s clothing as usual; he didn’t expect her in a dress, and she indeed had the perfect temperament for a cheongsam.

Kong Lingwen ignored him and drove the car into a neighborhood.

"This is my place. From today, you’ll live here with me to develop our relationship. In five days, it’s my grandfather’s birthday banquet."

"We’re going to live together?"

Yang Cheng widened his eyes, not expecting Kong Lingwen to propose living together.

Being so close would surely make it easier to ’capture the moon’ faster! 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"It’s not living together! It’s just adjusting to living together first, otherwise, my father will also have us share a room when we’re back home."

Kong Lingwen frowned slightly, disliking the term ’cohabitation.’

"Alright."

Yang Cheng chuckled, already planning to climb into bed at night.

As they chatted, they had already entered the apartment. The interior was very clean, decorated in a simple style.

"You’ll stay in the guest room. Get some rest. Tomorrow we’ll visit Yunmei Company together."

As she turned to leave, Yang Cheng grabbed her arm.

"Did you come all this way just to tell me to go to bed early?"

Yang Cheng moved closer, his masculine scent enveloping her face, causing her cheeks to heat, and she shyly turned her face aside.

"Let go of me! I only said we’d share a room, not a bed."

Kong Lingwen struggled, but was unable to budge Yang Cheng.

"Fine, then let’s not talk about this, let’s discuss the Frost Flower."

Yang Cheng’s expression turned serious, appearing very imposing.

"You know Yang Xiao has lung cancer, and after being kidnapped, her condition worsened drastically. She urgently needs treatment, and now only a Medicine Pill can cure her."

"I’ve been searching for the ingredients to make the Medicine Pill for a long time, and now only one Frost Flower is missing. Before your grandfather’s birthday banquet, let’s find the Frost Flower, and after that, you can ask anything of me."

Yang Cheng’s voice carried a pleading tone; he was truly at his wits’ end.

"But I said before, as long as Yang Rou gets pregnant, I don’t even have to wait for the child to be born; I would take you to find the Frost Flower."

Kong Lingwen furrowed her brows, looking up at him.

"You and Yang Rou are both physically fine and have been together for so long but haven’t conceived. Did you sabotage it somehow?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Cheng didn’t deny it. Dragging it out any longer was pointless, Kong Lingwen would discover it sooner or later.

"Yes! I’ve never intended for Yang Rou to get pregnant from the start."

Yang Cheng answered truthfully.

Kong Lingwen’s expression suddenly darkened, and she questioned him, "Then why did you deceive me?"

"I did deceive you, but haven’t you also been deceiving yourself?"

Yang Cheng grasped her shoulders, looking her in the eyes.

"Kong Lingwen, ask yourself, after spending so much time with me, do you really have no feelings for me? If you do have feelings, why insist on Yang Rou having my child?"

He fired off two questions in a row, catching Kong Lingwen off guard.

During those two dates, they’d done everything intimate except the last step.

There was a moment when Kong Lingwen yearned for Yang Cheng to take her virginity, but upon reflection afterward, she felt confused by her own thoughts.

In her heart, she always saw herself as a man, yet two dates with Yang Cheng were enough to change her mind.

"I don’t have... mmm"

As soon as Kong Lingwen started to speak, her lips were sealed by Yang Cheng.

She struggled vigorously, but Yang Cheng held her hands tightly, his kiss fierce; his tongue parted her teeth, entwining with her little tongue.

Feeling the passionate and intense masculine aura, Kong Lingwen gradually lost herself to it, surprisingly starting to respond to his kiss.

As the kiss ended, both were breathless, and Yang Cheng asked again, "So? Still so stubborn?"

Kong Lingwen’s heart raced, looking at Yang Cheng’s handsome face, she found herself unable to voice a rebuttal but equally unable to accept the reality.

Seeing her seem less resistant, Yang Cheng took the opportunity to lift her into his arms, striding into the bedroom and tossing her onto the bed.

"What are you going to do? Yang Cheng, don’t be impulsive."

Kong Lingwen noticed his fiery gaze and swelling beneath, promptly realizing something was wrong, struggling to get up.

Yang Cheng had anticipated her reaction, pressing her hands onto the bed, his body pinning her down.

"I’m going to have you!"

He licked his lips, still tasting the fragrance of her lips, that kiss had him excited beyond measure.

As he spoke, he released one hand, starting to undo the buttons on Kong Lingwen’s chest.

"No! Let go of me! You bastard!"

Kong Lingwen shouted angrily, struggling fiercely.

But regardless of how she struggled, her pink cheongsam was peeled off, revealing a slender body clad in white lace lingerie.

Her figure was incredibly perfect, with full breasts, a waist so slender it could be held with just one hand, skin tender like cream, and below, her panties tightly wrapped around a stunning area, long and slim legs that could only be imagined shouldered in a sprint, how delightful the sight was.

Yang Cheng’s breathing grew rapid, his gaze filled with desire.

He wasn’t that crude, though, to rush in forcefully; he had to first arouse Kong Lingwen, so things would go naturally.

"Yang Cheng! Don’t do this, I’ve agreed to help you find the Frost Flower, we’ll go tomorrow, how about that?"

Kong Lingwen finally relented, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, indicating her genuine fear.

"Don’t cry! I’m sorry."

Seeing her tears, Yang Cheng’s heart softened immediately.

He really was left with no choice, resorting to the forceful method; who knew Kong Lingwen would resist so much.
