Chapter 17: No need to wait until the wedding day, do it tonight
Fan Ruoruo pondered secretly, could it be that Li Chengyun was really hiding his strength and biding his time?
However, he chose a place with fireworks as his hiding place, which was too controversial and his reputation was really worrying.

But if Li Chengyun was not a playboy, then this marriage would not be completely impossible.

Just as she raised her head to take a closer look, she was suddenly stunned!

It turned out that the place where Li Chengyun was was empty, and he had left quietly.

Just as Fan Ruoruo was about to turn around to look for him, she suddenly felt someone gently holding her waist from behind.

She was startled and wanted to scream, but the person behind her covered her mouth with lightning speed, making her unable to make a sound.

The person behind the scenes was Li Chengyun.

Li Chengyun also felt something strange at this moment, and was full of doubts: "What on earth is causing this feeling?"

He turned around suddenly, pressed Fan Ruoruo against the wall, and looked at her face carefully.

When he saw clearly that it was Fan Ruoruo, Li Chengyun was stunned.

Not an assassin, nor a thief.

What was this girl doing disguising herself as a man and sneaking into a brothel late at night?
Li Chengyun pressed close to Fan Ruoruo, covering her mouth with one hand, and the two were very close.

He lowered his head slightly and could catch a glimpse of Fan Ruoruo's snow-white and delicate skin.

A faint fragrance wafts to the nose from time to time.

And the hand covering Fan Ruoruo's mouth could also feel her skin as smooth as silk.

This girl has skin as white as jade, it's really amazing!

Fan Ruoruo was so ashamed and angry at this moment.

A man pressed her against the wall, the two of them were so close that they could even feel each other's body temperature.

She had never experienced anything like this before, and her cheeks turned as red as ripe apples.

She tried to push the man away with force, but he was as strong as an ox, and her weak push was like a breeze on his face.

Li Chengyun noticed Fan Ruoruo's struggle, exerted a little force on his hands, and whispered in her ear:
"Don't move or make any noise. If you agree, I'll let you go! If you agree, just nod your head."

Fan Ruoruo's cheeks flushed, her eyes widened, and she nodded repeatedly, looking surprisingly cute.

Seeing her like this, Li Chengyun slowly let go of her hand, took a step back, and asked curiously:
"How come you, a girl, come to this brothel so late at night? Are you here to explore this place of fireworks?"

I secretly sighed in my heart that this girl is quite courageous.

He remembered that in the original novel, in order to lend a helping hand to Fan Xian, she had disguised herself as a man and entered Zuixianju.

Fan Ruoruo's face flushed, she was still gasping for breath, but she raised her head with forced calmness:
"I'm just curious about what charm this Zuixianju has that makes you men linger here."

Seeing her like this, Li Chengyun couldn't help but chuckle:

"This is naturally a paradise on earth. Since you are interested, I will take you to experience it."

He turned around and clapped his hands outside the door, and ordered:

"Hurry up and get all the most beautiful girls from Zuixianju up here!"

Hearing this, Fan Ruoruo became anxious. She stepped forward quickly, her tone full of pleading:
"Please, don't!"

She knew very well that she was disguised as a man and visited Zuixianlou late at night. Once her identity was exposed, it would spread throughout Kyoto tomorrow, and her reputation as Fan Ruoruo would be completely destroyed.

Seeing this, Li Chengyun raised his lips in a playful arc and said leisurely:

"The daughter of Si Nanbo went to a brothel at night just to see her fiancé. If this news were to get out, it would surely become a big joke in Kyoto."

He always loved teasing girls like this, and looking at Fan Ruoruo's blushing cheeks, he found it even more amusing.

Fan Ruoruo glared at Li Chengyun, with a hint of anger in her tone:
"How dare you?"

Li Chengyun raised his eyebrows and chuckled:
"Oh? Why not go and ask, in this vast world, is there anything that I, Li Chengyun, dare not do?!"

Fan Ruoruo was shocked by his words.

Yes, the Sixth Prince in front of him has long been a famous figure in Kyoto. What is there that he dare not do?

Seeing her stunned, Li Chengyun stopped smiling and said seriously:
"Tell me, what are you doing here so late at night?" Fan Ruoruo calmed down, took a deep breath, tried to calm her inner fluctuations, looked directly into Li Chengyun's eyes, and said slowly:

"My brother once said that you were hiding your abilities, so I wanted to see for myself whether the rumor was true."

As she spoke, her eyes swept over Li Chengyun, and she thought of the scene just now, and couldn't help whispering:

"People in the outside world all say that the Sixth Prince is addicted to brothels all day long, and that alcohol and sex have drained his body, but after seeing him today, it seems that is not the case."

"I was silent just now, but you were able to sense my presence. You must be a master of at least rank seven to be able to hear the faint sounds of my breathing and footsteps through the wall."

Fan Ruoruo's analysis made Li Chengyun nod secretly.

As expected of a disciple accepted by Grandmaster Ku He, his observation skills are so sharp.

However, Li Chengyun did not take it seriously. Instead, he raised his lips slightly and continued to tease:

"Now that you have seen it, what should you do? Are you wavering in your heart and wanting to fall in love with me and be willing to commit yourself to me?"

Facing Li Chengyun's teasing, Fan Ruoruo suddenly calmed down and looked solemn:

"Your Majesty's order, I dare not disobey! My father's wish is also difficult to disobey! My brother and I have praised you highly, so what does it matter whether we like it or not?"

"As a woman, I am satisfied if I can do my part for my father and brother."

In fact, her deepest thoughts were not expressed.

Just because of what she just saw, her opinion of Li Chengyun has changed.

He is not a dandy boy as people say, and he does not indulge in women in Zuixianju. There must be a deeper meaning behind his daily behavior.

After hearing this, Li Chengyun also looked at Fan Ruoruo with new eyes. Then he took two steps forward and whispered in her ear:

"Since you have made up your mind, I will test your sincerity."

His breath brushed gently past Fan Ruoruo's ears, and Fan Ruoruo's cheeks instantly turned bright red, and her whole body became slightly hot.

She had never expected Li Chengyun to be so sudden. She was flustered and her words were a little stammering:

"Sincerity... Sincerity should be left until the wedding day."

Li Chengyun slightly frowned his sword-like brows, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

"Wedding day?" he whispered softly.

Since Fan Ruoruo has already come to me on her own initiative, why should I wait for that distant wedding date?

Li Chengyun shook his head and said with a smile:

"How can I let this good time go to waste when my beautiful lady is here in person? Only today can I show my sincerity!"

After saying that, he gently pushed Fan Ruoruo to the corner, his deep eyes fixed on her peach-like face, and gradually approached her.

His face, like a carefully painted painting, gradually enlarged in front of Fan Ruoruo's eyes.

She felt the unique masculine scent emanating from him, which was strong and charming, and made her feel intoxicated.

Although Fan Ruoruo pushed lightly with both hands, it was like a weak willow in the wind, without any strength at all.

She closed her eyes tightly, as if looking forward to the tenderness that was to come.

Li Chengyun finally kissed her lips, and at that moment, it seemed as if the whole world stopped.

After a kiss.

Fan Ruoruo's cheeks were flushed, and she looked as beautiful as peach blossoms in the spring breeze.

She leaned weakly in Li Chengyun's arms, letting him carry her towards the soft bed.

In the plum blossom tent, we laughed and followed each other,
It is difficult to cope with the joy and frustration.

The spring brings about a hundred beauties, and the soul is in disarray.
The roosters crowed at the fifth watch.
