Chapter 318: Chapter 318: Teasing, Aroused

The soft rustle of fabric echoed as a jacket was casually torn off and tossed onto the floor beside the bed.

It was the first time Yun Sheng truly felt Si Jin’s urgency. Though domineering, it did not carry the slightest hint of discomfort or offense. His body was scorching hot. The searing temperature seeped through the layers of their clothes, melting her into a puddle of weakness.

They rubbed intimately against each other, their lips and teeth intertwining as the kiss deepened. Every inch of touch was laced with ultimate tenderness. Si Jin’s usually clear blue eyes were now dark and profound, like a deep-sea vortex. They carried a fatal attraction, firmly pulling Yun Sheng’s mind and soul into their depths. She completely drowned in this intimacy, her entire body going soft and limp.

It took a long time before Si Jin slightly released her lips.

Yun Sheng’s lips were swollen and damp from the kiss, glistening with an alluring sheen. Their warm breaths tightly intertwined. The heartbeats in their chests raced outrageously fast, THUMP, THUMP, ringing clearly in the quiet space.

Si Jin lowered his gaze to her flushed face. With slightly trembling fingertips, he deftly unbuttoned his shirt with one hand. The shirt fell half-open, revealing his smooth, firm chest and well-defined abdominal muscles. His cold, pale skin accentuated the sharp lines of his muscles, making him look even more captivating. Yun Sheng’s gaze was unconsciously drawn to the sight. Instinctively, she raised her hand and gently pressed it against his chest.

The moment her palm touched his firm, warm skin, the sensation was so comfortable that she couldn’t bear to pull away. As her fingertips slowly traced downward, she could clearly feel the muscles beneath her hand tense up instantly. She also became more acutely aware of Si Jin’s searing temperature. Every line of his body went remarkably taut at her touch.

"Does it feel good?" Si Jin leaned down and chuckled softly in her ear. His voice was hoarse, magnetic, and incredibly seductive.

Yun Sheng’s lips curved into a smile, and a subtle amusement rippled in her eyes. Without stopping her hand’s movements, she replied softly, "Mhm. It feels great."

As soon as the words left her mouth, he suddenly raised his hand, gently gripping her wrist, and guided her hand down a few more inches. Yun Sheng’s breath hitched instantly, and her heartbeat spiked. Her fingertips went stiff, freezing in place as she dared not make another reckless move.

Watching her sudden flash of flustered shyness, the darkness in Si Jin’s eyes thickened. He lowered his head and leaned in, first planting a light peck on the corner of her swollen lips. Then, a trail of soft kisses slowly cascaded downward, sweeping gently and affectionately over the side of her neck and collarbone before continuing its descent.

"Mmph..." A tiny whimper escaped Yun Sheng’s throat. Soft and sweet, it carried an uncontrollable, faint tremor. The airy sound felt like a feather gently tickling the tip of one’s heart, completely throwing a person into disarray.

The last shred of clarity in Si Jin’s eyes completely shattered. His turbulent gaze, surging with a Dark Tide, brimmed with intensely fierce possessiveness. All his reason collapsed; in his eyes and in his heart, there was only her.

His scorching palms firmly gripped her waist as he smoothly lifted the hem of her shirt, stripping away the unnecessary layers binding her. The moment their skin touched, their searing temperatures instantly intertwined and fused. Yun Sheng’s heartbeat skyrocketed, and her breathing fell into total chaos. In the narrow space of her vision, only Si Jin’s figure remained.

In her ears was the sound of their tightly woven breaths; in her chest was a resonant, erratic heartbeat; all around her was his blistering body heat, enveloping her completely.

They pressed closer together, leaving not a single gap between them. The next second, his kiss descended again, heavier and more lingering than before.

The spiritual power inside Yun Sheng stirred restlessly. Instinctively, it wanted to surge out, to entangle and tease his aura just as it always did. But this time, she forcefully held it back. She could clearly feel that Si Jin was deliberately restraining himself as well. By unspoken agreement, they both abandoned the fusion and pull of their spiritual power, wanting only to draw close to each other in the purest way. They wanted to belong to one another entirely, sharing only the most straightforward, sincere embrace.

Yun Sheng’s fingertips tensed as she raised her hands to climb up his back. Curling her fingers slightly, she gripped his skin and refused to let go. As he tenderly took her lips into his mouth, gently grinding against them, muffled and broken whimpers still spilled uncontrollably from the corners of her lips.

Si Jin’s movements came to a sudden halt.

His fingertips gently caressed her furrowed brow, smoothing out the shallow crease bit by bit. The intense possessiveness surrounding him faded a little, leaving only an overflowing tenderness. He lowered his eyes to look at Yun Sheng, whose breathing was in disarray beneath him, and bowed his head to cover her lips once more. This kiss was incredibly gentle. It was tender and patient, slowly soothing all her tension.

The warm intimacy lingered and spread. Fine beads of sweat dampened the hair at their temples, sticking softly to their foreheads. Yun Sheng’s eyes were damp, veiled in a heavy layer of mist. Tiny, involuntary tears slipped quietly from the corners of her eyes.

Sensing the moisture, Si Jin leaned down and gently kissed away the tear tracks at the corners of her eyes. His movements were tender to the extreme, carefully cherishing the person in his arms. His boundless, gentle care, interwoven layer by layer with the domineering possessiveness deep in his bones, tightly enveloped her entire body and mind.

In this moment, Yun Sheng’s body went completely limp, having lost all its strength. She could only instinctively hold him tight, allowing herself to be pulled and swept away by this scorching affection, sinking deeper and deeper. Chaotic breaths, an out-of-control heartbeat, all her senses and all her emotions—in her eyes and in her heart, from beginning to end, there was only him.

Sometime later.

Hot water in the bathtub washed over their bodies, the swirling steam wrapping them in a thin layer of warmth. Yun Sheng leaned softly against Si Jin’s embrace, her back pressed against his warm, solid chest. She casually reached for his hand, her fingertips lazily tracing and playing with his long, clean joints.

After a long period of quiet tenderness, she finally spoke softly, breaking the tranquility of the bathroom. "Si Jin, I haven’t had the chance to ask you. How did you handle things with Xu Chengyuan?"

Si Jin kept his arms loosely wrapped around her waist, his palms resting against her warm skin. His voice was deep and lazy. "Back when I was still the Star Alliance War God, he was always secretly trying to trip me up. At the time, I made some arrangements and planted quite a few hidden operatives within his military ranks."

He lowered his head, lightly nuzzling the crown of her head with the tip of his nose. His tone was calm and unhurried. "This time, I simply took the opportunity to use those people to intentionally create a few incidents. It will be enough to keep him busy and overwhelmed for a while, so he won’t have the energy to cause trouble for you and Bai Ye in the meantime."

Hearing this, Yun Sheng’s heart tightened slightly. She immediately turned her body to look back at him, a hint of worry in her eyes. "Then won’t you expose your tracks by suddenly using these hidden operatives? What if Xu Chengyuan finds a flaw and traces it back to you?"

"Don’t worry. Even if they are discovered, they won’t sell me out," Si Jin said, his tone exceptionally certain.

He had served as the Star Alliance War God for so many years. Even though he had now fallen into a Dark Sentinel, jointly wanted by the Star Alliance and the Tower, the people he had personally promoted, secretly helped, and fully sponsored back then were scattered everywhere. More than half of them were fiercely loyal to him.

The people he mobilized this time were trusted confidants who had previously undergone rigorous testing. Even if they were accidentally targeted or investigated, they would absolutely never betray him. It was precisely because of the silent backing of these people that he had been able to remain hidden on the Capital Star for so long.

Seeing Si Jin’s confident demeanor, Yun Sheng was no longer worried. She raised a hand to gently pinch his cheek, a hint of praise in her tone. "It seems our Former War God, even while lying dormant in the shadows, still possesses an astonishing amount of energy."

Si Jin reached back and grabbed her mischievous hand, pulling it close to plant a soft kiss on her fingertips. The warm touch brought a tingling sensation. He chuckled softly against her ear, his voice low, hoarse, and deeply affectionate. "No matter how powerful I am, it’s all just to back you up."

Yun Sheng’s heart softened. She relaxed her body once more, leaning back against his chest. After leaning there for a while, she asked again, "By the way, what about Xing Che? You said you ran into him while handling Xu Chengyuan’s matter, and Bai Ye mentioned something was off about him and that we should keep a close eye on him. What’s... his situation?"
