Chapter 1122

One could say there was no difference between day and night in the entire Penglai Village.

Everything kept running nonstop.

But today, the women working beside the lord's manor all lowered their voices.

They worked with extra care.

Normally, every day they could hear sounds coming from the lord's manor.

But today…

Something seemed off.

"Hey, did you hear that? Tang Ruan's voice."

"Of course I heard it, so loud—who could possibly miss it?"

"What's going on?"

"I don't know either. Did she do something wrong?"

"No way? What mistake could Tang Ruan make? And doesn't my lord like her quite a bit?"

"Then what's happening? She's half-dead, half-alive…"

"Yeah, listen, she's begging for mercy again."

"Sigh, she shouldn't beg for mercy. Every time she begs, my lord only punishes her harder. Listen, the sounds are even more pitiful now."

"Right, if it were me, I'd just stay silent and let my lord vent, and that would be that."

"Sigh, Tang Ruan's usually a bit silly, she probably doesn't know any of this. In a bit, let's talk to her, so next time she makes a mistake, my lord won't punish her like this."

"But… isn't Tang Ruan pretty tough? Normally when Qiyue slashes her with a blade, she doesn't make a sound, and she even smiles."

"Oh? Right."

"Looks like my lord is still the strongest. Just a few slaps—smack, smack, smack—on her is more effective than being slashed with a blade."

"You don't understand, it's called 'little drops make a mighty ocean.' Don't look at how much lighter it is than a blade slash, but the time goes on far too long."

"Right, hasn't she been getting smacked for over an hour now?"

"Got it. In a bit, let's all talk to Tang Ruan and let her know how to beg for mercy next time."

"Mm! Okay!"

The women discussed in low voices.

Normally, of course they knew what was going on.

But today they truly didn't quite understand.

Still, even if they didn't understand, Gu Qing and the others understood perfectly well.

Three women sat together, cheeks flushed red, exchanging glances.

Zhuang Ya asked, trembling with fear: "Has Zhao Chi always been like this? He doesn't seem this way normally, does he? I've heard all of your voices before, but never anything like this."

Gu Qing touched her own hot, soft cheeks: "Of course it's different. Today my lord is… exceptionally vigorous. I really envy that little girl Tang Ruan—she has such good genes, the Shaodengyi Society heals her completely, so she can keep going with my lord like this…"

Qiyue asked softly: "Is it because we have body fragrance now? So my lord likes us more?"

Gu Qing shook her head: "I'm not sure either, there should be some connection, right? But today Tang Ruan really did earn merit, so it's only right that my lord reward her a little extra."

Qiyue nodded: "Yes."

Zhuang Ya, however, looked troubled: "This… is this really a reward?"

Gu Qing was a little surprised: "Didn't you just experience it yourself? Your voice wasn't any quieter than hers. Didn't it feel good?"

"Good is good…" Zhuang Ya recalled: "It's just… how do I put it, the feeling was too intense."

Gu Qing nodded: "I understand. Probably my lord didn't hold back his strength with you—after all, you really are very beautiful. If I were a man, I definitely couldn't hold back either."

Zhuang Ya said hesitantly: "It's not that. Zhao Chi—I could feel it—he's already been extremely, extremely considerate of me. It's just that my constitution isn't up to it…"

"Ah? What's wrong with you?"

Zhuang Ya softly told Gu Qing and Qiyue about her situation.

Qiyue sucked in a breath of cold air: "What? 21 points? Just from that little while, big sister, you gained 21 points?"

Zhuang Ya nodded: "Yes, so I… really did feel wonderful, but I'm also a little scared. Sometimes it felt like I was about to suffocate…"

Gu Qing sighed: "You really are someone who doesn't know how blessed you are. Your constitution is so rare—if you don't want it, give it to me. I want it."

Zhuang Ya said in surprise: "Ah? Is it really that good?"

Gu Qing nodded: "You've still experienced too little. Once you slowly get used to it, you'll be grateful for your constitution. Honestly, how can all of you be so special? I really envy you."

Zhuang Ya was stunned: "Envy?"

Gu Qing said: "Yes. Tang Ruan can take it, can last a long time, and my lord is most unrestrained with her. You're so sensitive that in just a little while you can feel like you're dying of pleasure. And Qiyue can also smell my lord's scent, and every time she eats to her heart's content, completely satisfied. Only I have nothing special."

Zhuang Ya fell silent.

She didn't know how to comfort her about this.

Qiyue said: "My lord likes you the most—that in itself is very special."

"My lord likes me the most?" A light shone in Gu Qing's eyes.

Qiyue nodded: "Yes, my lord's affection for you has always been the highest, and he trusts you the most too. Whenever something comes up, you're the first one he looks for. We're the ones envying you."

"If you put it that way… it's not really. My lord likes everyone the same."

Gu Qing laughed, clearly very happy.

Qiyue continued: "And Sister Gu Qing, you have one trait none of us can compare to."

"Ah? I don't, do I?" Gu Qing was a little curious.

Qiyue said: "Every time my lord is with you, he buries his head in there. He's never done that with me… at least not every time with me."

Zhuang Ya couldn't help glancing at Gu Qing's enormous pride.

A double G—two whole grades bigger than Tang Ruan's double E.

Gu Qing's smile deepened: "That's right… thank you for reminding me."

Qi Yue laughed and said: "What's there to thank me for? No need."

Tang Ruan's voice rose again, interrupting their conversation.

Zhao Chi really did put in the effort this time.

One was to reward her for leading Zhao Chi out of danger.

The second was to help him supplement his genetic inheritance.

This time he deliberately gave her 5 points.

Given consecutively.

Zhao Chi is very strong now.

To give consecutively, it can't be given out too quickly.

It also needs a process.

This process wore Tang Ruan out completely.

But Tang Ruan was enjoying every bit of it.

Finally, the two began to rest.

But before they had rested for a moment, Tang Ruan regained her senses.

She climbed up from Zhao Chi's embrace and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"My lord, you're sweating."

"Yeah, with that much exertion, it'd be strange not to sweat."

"My lord, you were especially handsome just now, especially when the sweat fell on me."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, very charming. I sweated too, it felt so exhilarating."

"Haha, is that so? How are you feeling now?"

"Of course I've fully recovered. My abilities were all given by you—don't you know that yet?"

Zhao Chi sighed: "You're the field that works an ox to death."

Tang Ruan laughed: "No~ my lord, you're the amazing one. What happened today? I nearly passed out several times."

Zhao Chi laughed: "Mainly because you're charming."

Tang Ruan pouted: "I don't believe it. Is it because of today's events that you rewarded me?"

"Part of the reason, but mainly because you're charming."

"Hehe, if you keep saying that, my lord, I'll take it seriously."

"Of course, it was true to begin with."
