Chapter 125: The Night is Still Young Jehanne’s body trembled. Xu Tao’s lips felt weird against her neck, but what was even weirder was... she kind of liked the sensation. Her breathing felt hitched, like something was stuck in her throat. Each exhale came out with a small puff of steam. "...!" Not only that, she could also feel Xu Tao’s hand holding her hips, caressing her body while inching upward—a gradual move, one where she could almost guess the final destination. She felt embarrassed, wanting to push Xu Tao away once more. However, this time, she managed to hold back that "mistaken" desire. ’This time, no matter how embarrassing it gets, I’ll accept all of your actions without acting up...!’ she resolved herself. Jehanne could feel Xu Tao’s hand coming up, reaching toward the twin peaks covered by her black, rubber-like bunny suit. Her back arched from his warm touch, trembling in a mix of excitement and anticipation. THUD! "Huh?!" But then, something she didn’t expect occurred. Yifa, who was just beside her, and Zetian, who was situated on the other end, climbed the table at the same time. Their eyes were hazy and vacant, staring at Jehanne’s face with blank expressions... but both crawled toward her sides in sync. "W-What are you...?!" Jehanne cried. Her hands were caught by the two and pinned tightly against the table. She could barely move under their firm grip! "These two... they’ve completely fallen to the charm’s effect, haven’t they?!" Jehanne began to panic. This... definitely wasn’t what she had in mind. Neither was it part of the hundreds of scenarios that Irithel had lectured her on! Her mind went blank, unable to think of what to do. "Mmmh~!" Suddenly, two firm hands grabbed and squeezed her chest over her dress, pushing it up, caressing, pressing as if gently kneading bread dough. Despite it not involving direct skin-to-skin contact, each move Xu Tao made sent shivers down her spine. It felt good... too good! Way beyond her expectations and knowledge! "Hngh~?! N-No...!" And as she was distracted by Xu Tao’s "massage," the other two moved. They pulled her feet up, holding them from behind her knees, spreading her legs wide. It was an embarrassing pose—one that she was taught as the "welcome" pose by Irithel. One she was told to use only when the time was "right." Jehanne’s mind spun. She was with Xu Tao, enjoying his touch—but they weren’t alone. There were two others present, similarly charmed and out of their minds. Variables spun in her head as she was overwhelmed by a mix of sensations and emotions... Until it was too much for her to handle! "STOP!" Jehanne acted on reflex. She pulled her thighs inward, then extended her legs straight—causing both Zetian and Yifa to fly backward toward the wall. Neither girl even tried to land properly or protect themselves, and they slammed into the wall hard enough to make one worry if their skulls had cracked. THUNK! "Mmmmh..." But at the same time, her heels landed squarely on Xu Tao’s rising dragon. He let out a low, rumbling noise from his throat. His eyes turned white as his body straightened up like a corpse, both hands moving to cover his groin by reflex—albeit already too late. And then... he fell to the ground. "...Ah." Jehanne only realized what happened a moment later. "I... did it again...!" she cried, covering her face in embarrassment. Before, she had thrown Xu Tao out of the Log House’s second floor with her 2x STR, knocking him out. And now, she had ended up kicking little Sir Tao with full force—adding the grave threat of having his bloodline discontinued! After she was done rolling around, she finally glanced at the fallen Xu Tao and the other two. "...I need to do something for them, at least..." she whispered timidly. With hints of hesitation in her actions, the little bunny jumped down from the table and began her cleanup. ???????????? "Hmm..." Xu Tao groaned as he opened his eyes. "Why do I feel like... I just got struck by divine tribulation lightning?" he muttered absentmindedly. His memory from last night was fuzzy. All he could recall was gathering with Wu Zetian, Jehanne, and Yifa in the castle’s meeting room and... that was it. Everything that happened after Zetian’s "trap" was completely gone from his mind! Whatever incense or powder Zetian used... must’ve scrambled the victim’s mind worse than she thought. Thus, he couldn’t explain why his limbs felt weak. He had no idea what happened to him before losing consciousness! Anyway, judging from the light filtering through the curtains, the sun was already up. Xu Tao had a busy schedule ahead, so he had to rise without delay... or at least, he tried to. "Huh?" When he tried to sit up, the blanket covering him down to his chest fell away, revealing— "Jehanne?" A figure wearing nothing but an innocent pair of white underwear—not the flashy kind. She had her body pressed tightly against Xu Tao’s side, hugging him like a cicada clinging to a tree. And as if reacting to his voice, Jehanne’s brows twitched. Her sleepy blue eyes opened, glancing up at Xu Tao’s face almost instantly. A thin smile spread across her lips as she sleepily whispered: "Ah... Sir Tao... G’morn..." Her voice died out mid-speech, almost as if she had fallen asleep again—tired beyond reason. And while looking at her curiously, Xu Tao himself realized that... he was wearing nothing but a pair of black boxers. Waking up in the morning. Two bodies pressed against each other. No memories of last night’s events... All the ingredients for a "mistake" were laid out on the table! ’No, wait. I’m sure I wasn’t drunk, so why can’t I recall what happened?’ he calmly analyzed. Shuffle! Jehanne moved, climbing up Xu Tao’s body, before planting a small kiss on his cheek. Her lazy smile—slightly teasing and playful—sealed the deal. "Although the thing about engagement was my misunderstanding, that doesn’t mean I’ll be giving up on you, Sir Tao..." she whispered. Jehanne had invested way too much emotionally into Xu Tao. Even if she was told the engagement had been her delusion, it was too late to back out now... And even without that, she was already too fond of him to simply walk away like nothing had happened. Of course, Xu Tao had no idea what she meant. The "confession" part from last night was included in the memories he was missing, after all. Still, just from her intonation and confidence, Xu Tao could feel she was serious about her words. A faint smile crossed his lips, silently praising Jehanne’s strong will and devotion. However, ignoring all that, there was one question he’d been curious about since earlier. "Why are we... almost naked while together in bed?" "Ah..." Jehanne’s mouth hung open. Like a poorly oiled machine, she glanced downward, finally realizing her current state. Xu Tao was amused to see her face change from white, to blue, to beet red in seconds! "I-It’s not what it looks like!" she growled, jumping up while throwing the blanket away. Without much effort explaining, she turned around and dashed out the door, shouting repeatedly: "It’s a misunderstanding!!!" "..." Watching her amusing reaction, Xu Tao couldn’t help but ponder. What the hell really happened? The mystery deepens!
