Poison Genius Consort - Chapter 1345
Chapter 1345: [NCheng] Someone to lean on
Ning Cheng saw it…saw everything.
He subconsciously looked away, but Cheng’er rushed to hug him. He turned his head without moving. This was as far as Cheng’er dared anyways. She just held him tightly…that was all.
Time trickled by and Ning Cheng didn’t budge. Just like that, an hour passed until Cheng’er was cold enough to shiver. But Ning Cheng still didn’t move, push her aside, or hug her back. Cheng’er thought he wanted her to release him herself and leave. At last her thick-skinned self felt some shame.
Both her eyes and face turned red.
She finally realized she had no charm whatsoever. Even at this point, this fellow could simply remain calm. Did he really not like her at all?
Did he only stay behind because he was forced?
Was it all her own wishful thinking?
She slowly releases him and backed away from Ning Cheng’s warmth. Head lowered, she carefully straightened out her clothes and re-tied the butterfly bow.
“Sorry, I’ve disturbed you.” She didn’t dare look at his face but silently walked towards the door. Her petite back was disappointed as if the whole world wanted to spurn and drive her away. But she had just taken a step out when Ning Cheng caught him, drew an arm around her waist, and picked her up princess style.
Cheng’er was lost and only saw his cold, unsmiling face. He carried her into the inner rooms and tossed her roughly on the bed before climbing on top to trap her below him.
Looking at his gloomy face, Cheng’er’s heart could only pound in her chest. She subconsciously clutched at it as if afraid it’d burst out of her body. But her hand had hardly touched herself when Ning Cheng tore it off and undid the bow in front of her dress.
“Ah…Ah-Cheng…” Cheng’er grew timid. Her first thought was that although they had both torn off clothes, why was it so different when he was tearing hers? She felt every part of her body trembling.
Seeing him looking at her robes, she couldn’t help holding her breath, feeling her heart beat so fast it might as well stop.
“Ah-Cheng, you…you…” she felt she had to say something or ask something, but didn’t know what.
Ning Cheng spoke instead. “Shangguan Cheng’er, you’ve already disturbed me!”
Determination shone in his eyes before he buried his head to wantonly indulge—even cruelly indulge, as if in revenge or punishment. Cheng’er’s body was stiff at first, but soon she began to shriek—in disbelief and shock. Ning Cheng was only kissing her, but she couldn’t take it anymore. Heaven knows how moved she felt, because she wouldn’t stop screaming. Ning Cheng had to use a hand to muffle her mouth. By the time she was fully undressed, she began to shake so much that Ning Cheng had to stop and look at her. Seeing his suspicious look, she quickly turned away, afraid to meet his gaze as her face reddened to the point of scorching.
…
Ning Cheng simply rode her like a cheetah over its prey, observing and watching. He realized that his prey was simply someone with a strong exterior who was actually a coward inside!
He couldn’t help asking, “Shangguan Cheng’er, where did you get the guts to provoke me?”
Cheng’er looked away as her eyes spun She only spared him one glance mixed with embarrassment, anger, unresignedness, and worry, even a bit of provocation.
She was simply a minx sent to torment others.
Ning Cheng couldn’t help laughing. This time, he didn’t just bury his head in her, but his body…
Perhaps domination was a form of acceptance and acknowledgment?
When Cheng’er once again shrieked, Ning Cheng had probably found his answer.
“Ning Cheng, you bastard!”
“You son of a b**ch, let go—”
Cheng’er was in so much pain she nearly passed out, but Ning Cheng just murmured by her ear, “Shangguan Cheng’er, it won’t be easy being mine, Ning Cheng’s, woman. You sought it out yourself, don’t regret it.” His voice was cold and his movements harsh. Strangely enough, Cheng’er didn’t feel more pain from his aggression, but gradual pleasure and satisfaction.
When she expelled that breath, a charming smile blossomed in its place as he took his pleasure in waves. She said, “Ah-Cheng, now you’re finally my man!”
Once everything was done, Cheng’er still didn’t release him or let him go. She sprawled over his body and tangled all together. Ning Cheng lay on his back, hands behind his head as he spaced out at the ceiling with unknown thoughts.
“Ah-Cheng, I’m so shameless, but why did you act shameless with me?” Cheng’er asked lazily.
Ning Cheng didn’t answer.
She cupped his face. “Are you listening?”
“No one would take you for a mute if you didn’t talk,” Ning Cheng said icily.
“Will it kill your to be gentler to me?” Cheng’er retorted.
“Yes,” Ning Cheng was certain.
Cheng’er was so mad she buried her head to bite his chest. Ning Cheng wanted to push her away, but she immediately struggled and started rubbing randomly against his body. He didn’t notice he was losing more and more patience with this woman.
“Try and move again!” he warned.
Cheng’er didn’t move, but Ning Cheng did. He flipped over to press her against the bed, amusing her so much she laughed and wrapped her arms around his neck for a proactive kiss. She said, “Ah-Cheng, it’s fine if you’re not gentle.”
Ning Cheng wasn’t tender, but Cheng’er didn’t mind. She let loose to scream and even curse and bite him. The two of them couldn’t even talk properly on the bed with sweet words. But wasn’t that enough as long as they were together?
After that night, everything went on as usual.
Ning Cheng still busied himself with his wines and didn’t bother Cheng’er, who stayed by his side and silently considered opening up a wineshop. At night, she insisted on sleeping in his arms. At first, Ning Cheng threw her off the bed three times, but relented after that. She was a restless sleeper who loved to touch here and rub there, as if she couldn’t doze without harassing him first. Sometimes Ning Cheng couldn’t stand it and did her directly. Other times he ignored her, but woke up in the middle of the night to pull her into his arms and couldn’t resist topping her with his body, singlehandedly stabbing her awake.
The two of them lived their days arguing and fussing, loving and caring for each other in the compound.
By the time the Shangguan Clan Head emerged from closed door cultivation, Cheng’er was already three months pregnant. When she pulled Ning Cheng over to meet her father, she introduced him as, “This is my husband, we were married a few years ago.” Only then did Ning Cheng understand her meaning of “shameless.”
He didn’t speak, but held her tight. His left hand wasn’t very strong, but it was enough to hold a woman’s hand.
There were many rumors surrounding the pair at Liubei Trade Consortium. The Shangguan Family Head did an investigation along with Cheng’er’s uncles, but none of them could get any clear answers. Seeing his daughter’s stomach begin to show, the man had no choice but to recognize both his daughter and son-in-law.
When news of Shangguan’s new daughter and son-in-law reached Han Xiang’s ears, she was so angrily she almost killed off her subordinates. In terms of clan power, the Shangguan Clan and Wolf Sect were equals, so she didn’t dare make a move against the couple. When it came to personal strength, she was inferior to Shangguan Ze or the rest of the clan elders. She could only endure.
“Master, how about letting the sect leader take care of it once he’s back to vent for us?” Batu suggested in a low voice.
It was better not to mention that. Now that he did, Han Xiang only felt aggrieved. Father’s martial arts skills were above the Shangguan Clan Head, so if he was willing he could perfectly well vent for her stake. But her father’s temper was so coldly indifferent it was as if he didn’t have emotions at all. She knew him best of all. If father found out, he would only listen to the circumstances and do nothing to help or care about her.
A few years ago, father would come back to the Wolf Sect, but he spent most of his recent time at Cloud Realm Continent. She only knew he needed to close door cultivation, but not where. She was most worried over whether he was actually cultivating or teaching Han Yunxi martial arts instead! After all, it was nearly time for the 10-Year Agreement.
Han Yunxi was father’s biological daughter. She refused to believe that he wasn’t biased. The 10-Year Agreement was enough for Han Xiang to forget about her grudge with Liubei Trade Consortium. She told Batu, “Let them go for now. Later on we’ll take care of Shangguan Ze with them!”
“Yes yes! Master will never spare them.” Batu’s eyes shone with obscenity. He had been longing for Cheng’er this whole time!
“I’ll leave the sect matters to you, I’m going to the west,” Han Xiang declared. She had thought it over and decided to go find exterior help. She didn’t want to lose, nor could she afford a loss. Father recognizing his biological daughter was the same as abandoning herself She had to find someone to rely on who could not only guarantee her victory, but hold off her father.
“Master is going to..the He Clan (赫家)?” Batu asked carefully.
Han Xiang immediately shot him a glare and Batu muffled his mouth, head bowed as he didn’t dare to speak.
“Only you know this. If it spreads…” Han Xiang didn’t finish before Batu fell to his knees.
“Don’t worry Master, this subordinate definitely won’t leak the news. Even if this subordinate had 100 times more guts, I wouldn’t dare!”
Han Xiang only felt better after giving him a vicious kick. She tossed her sleeves and stalked off, heading north that very day.
The largest clan in the west of Mysterious Continent was the He Clan, whose leader’s strength was on par with her own father. The He Clan Head had only lost one move to the Wolf Sect leader during the last ranking matches while rumors said he didn’t perform his best that day because of illness. Since neither patriarch had fought again since then, their actual strengths relative to each other were still unknown.
Over the past few years, Han Xiang had gradually controlled most of the power in Wolf Sect. The He Clan Head had secretly sent people over two times to intentionally draw her to their side. He wanted to use her to convince his father to team up and take over the Ice Sea. This was something she’d never told her father and hid to herself instead.
There was no benefits to be gained from the Ice Sea; those who wanted to conquer it simply had plans to seek Cloud Realm Continent byond it. Because of that, Han Xiang was even less inclined to tell her father or any other members of the sect.
After all, the female master of Cloud Realm Continent was the elder sister vying for sect leader position with her in the future!
Han Xiang left for three whole months before returning to the Wolf Sect. Even Batu had no idea what she’d done. She didn’t find trouble for Ning Cheng and Cheng’er anymore, but went straight into closed door cultivation.
The second year, Cheng’er birthed Ning Cheng a big fat son with promising martial arts talent. The Shangguan Clan Head deeply liked the child, as did the uncle Shangguan Ze. Both father and uncle vied for the change to name him, but Cheng’er refused and insisted that Ning Cheng choose as the father. Ning Cheng ended up naming him Yuan (远).[1] While Cheng’er asked what it represented, Ning Cheng refused to aswer. He also maintained close relations with Xiongfei and had him personally deliver an anonymous letter to Jin Zi about the man’s origins without revealing his own movements.
Under the patronage of the Shangguan Clan, he and Cheng’er started with a winery and together created the “Mysterious Trade Consortium.”[2] Truthfully speaking, the two might not get along in other matters but were very compatible in business. Gradually, their business grew bigger and bigger…
1. Literally “far,” “far away,” or “distant.”
2. 玄空商会 Xuankong Trade Consortium – Yes, they named it after the continent. Bet you it shows up in the sequel as a big deal.
