Dongfang Bubai smirked and continued to channel his inner energy to blow the painting even further.
But Li Chengqian, who was chasing after the portrait, suddenly turned around and hugged Dongfang Bubai tightly.
This sudden change caught Dongfang Bubai off guard, but Li Chengqian lifted Dongfang Bubai's delicate chin and smiled.
"Tsk tsk!"
"The person is right beside me, so why would you think my heart is in the portrait?"
Before Dongfang Bubai could react, Li Chengqian lowered his head and kissed him.

three seconds.
After his mind went blank, Dongfang Bubai came to his senses and launched an even more ferocious counterattack.
Li Chengqian: !!!
You want to conquer me?
no way!
Five minutes later, Dongfang Bubai pushed Li Chengqian away.
At this moment, Dongfang Bubai's aura was disordered and his face was flushed, while his clothes were even more disordered than his aura and face.
After escaping Li Chengqian's clutches, Dongfang Bubai quickly separated the two.
He then tossed the portrait to Li Chengqian, saying with a hint of annoyance, "Here you go, I don't want it anymore."
However, the portrait disappeared halfway through its flight.
In the blink of an eye, the portrait appeared in Dongfang Bubai's hand, while Li Chengqian appeared behind Dongfang Bubai.
....0
A pair of large hands gently embraced Dongfang Bubai's slender waist, and a tingling, warm breath blew towards Dongfang Bubai's ear.
"I don't want to paint now, I want you."
"Snapped!"
I was patted on the shoulder.
"boom!"
The rocks beneath Dongfang Bubai's feet were shattered into pieces by his stomping. Taking advantage of the tremors, Dongfang Bubai once again escaped Li Chengqian's control.
"Unless you marry me in a grand, formal ceremony with eight sedan chairs, don't even think about it!"
After uttering those harsh words, Dongfang Bubai hurriedly fled down the mountain.
Watching Dongfang Bubai's retreating figure, Li Chengqian rubbed his right hand together, seemingly savoring the feeling from just now.
Then Li Chengqian's figure faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, clearly indicating that Li Chengqian had once again used his unparalleled lightness skill.
"Do you enjoy peeping that much?"
Why do you always think I can't find it?
Li Chengqian's voice startled someone, who tried to escape but found that all his escape routes were blocked by Li Chengqian.
The man retreated step by step, while Li Chengqian approached step by step.
Li Chengqian only stopped when the man had nowhere left to retreat.
"You've stolen my secret, and you'll pay the price."
"I didn't mean to."
At this moment, Lianxing was completely flustered. Although she was extremely intelligent, she had no experience in dealing with this kind of situation.
"Things have already come to this point. If apologies were enough, what would be the point of having government offices?"
"Besides, if I don't want anyone to come near here, it won't make a difference who comes."
"In other words, no matter how loudly you shout, no one will pay attention to you."
As he spoke, Li Chengqian drew closer and closer to Lianxing.

As Li Chengqian approached, Lianxing's heart began to beat faster.
How could he do this?
Although I like him a lot, he shouldn't do this!
What will happen to my sister if he really does that?
Should I resist?
Lianxing's thoughts were in complete disarray; at this moment, she was like a weak and helpless little white rabbit, completely at the mercy of others.
"Then what do you want?"
In her panic, Lianxing uttered a self-deprecating remark.
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian's lips began to curl upwards.
"It's simple. Just do what I just did."
"If you don't do as I say, I'll do it myself."
Upon hearing this, Lianxing panicked.
He had just witnessed Li Chengqian and Dongfang Bubai's actions and was blushing with embarrassment; he couldn't bear it if it happened to him.
A pair of delicate hands immediately wrapped around Li Chengqian's neck.
Li Chengqian: !!!
Hey!
This is a compromise.
Besides, it feels pretty good when the other person takes the initiative.
A minute later, Lianxing pushed Li Chengqian away and ran away in a panic.
He secretly went up the mountain simply to vent his resentment at Li Chengqian for ignoring him.
But who knew that such a thing would happen, it was like losing both wife and army.
Watching Lianxing's retreating figure as she descended the mountain, Li Chengqian smacked his lips.
"It's alright, but the technique is a bit rough. It'll be fine after a few more practice sessions."
After saying that, Li Chengqian staggered down the mountain.
Actually, if Lianxing had been more resolute in her stance, there wouldn't have been anything I could have done.
But what can you do when she has such an unstable mindset?
Whether I take the initiative or she does, won't the result be the same?
The official road of the Ming Dynasty.
Shangguan Haitang, Cheng Shifei, and others were walking on the road.
The atmosphere among the crowd was unusually silent; the storytelling performance at Ping An Inn had dealt a heavy blow to everyone.
People are even unable to face this truth.
Especially Guihai Yidao, at this time he was almost living a life worse than death.
When the truth was revealed, he realized he had put his mother in a deadly predicament.
In order to protect herself and her companions, Haitang lost her right to stay at the Ping An Inn and was even expelled from the inn by Mr. Li.
Leaving Ping An Inn would mean that Haitang would die.
Besides that, there was something else that broke Haitang's heart even more: she lost the person she loved.
Seeing the emotions of the crowd, Cheng Shifei immediately said, "Actually, things aren't that serious."
"Haitang, why don't you go back and apologize to Mr. Li?"
"Mr. Li is very easy to talk to; he might just forgive you."
Shangguan Haitang forced a smile and said, "Cheng Shifei, sometimes things aren't as simple as you think."
“It’s easy to go back to Mr. Li and apologize, and it’s easy for Mr. Li to forgive us.”
"The difficult part is how we forgive ourselves."
“Mr. Li gave us several chances, but we didn’t cherish them at all.”
"If those things hadn't happened at the inn, we could have pretended not to know and enjoyed our freedom."
Upon hearing Shangguan Haitang's words, Cheng Shifei immediately retorted, "Why not? Our own destiny is in our own hands."
"If we are willing to make changes, we are sure we can do something?"
"Is that so?" Shangguan Haitang stared straight at Cheng Shifei. "Cheng Shifei, I know what kind of person you are."
"Although you come from humble beginnings, you've picked up some of the airs of a petty hoodlum."
“But you are a very loyal person, and your martial arts skills are inherited from the invincible Gu Santong.”
"Everyone in the martial arts world knows that Gu Santong was defeated by my godfather, Iron-Blooded Marquis."
"Gu Santong was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison for so many years, didn't he harbor any resentment?"
"When he passed on his life's martial arts skills to you, didn't he tell you anything?"
"For example, killing Zhu Wushi."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shifei's expression turned serious.
"No."
"Whether it's true or not, you know in your heart. After spending so much time together, I believe you wouldn't lay a hand on your godfather."
"Then let me ask you again, when the night is quiet and all is quiet, do you ever feel torn between two options?"
"Gu Santong is still your master, no matter what."
