Jin Qingyan rolled his eyes at him and chided, “You’re becoming more brazen with your words.”

“Hehe, it’s because I know you won’t punish me, Young Sir.”

“Who said so?” Jin Qingyan purposely put on an austere expression on his face and continued, “Shixin, how does twenty more rounds around the estate sound?”

“Young Sir, please don’t make me do that. I’ve already run a lot. I’m exhausted,” Fan Shixin pleaded with a look of moroseness.

“I’ll spare you if you can come up with a feasible solution for me.”

“What is it?”

“Ahem… well…” Jin Qingyan felt a little embarrassed but continued to tell him the problem, nonetheless.

Fan Shixin thought that it would be a major problem, but it turned out…

He had no choice but to contain his amusement and refrain from laughing, fearing that Jin Qingyan would be peeved and punish him.

Thus, he kept his emotions to himself with all his might and put on a serious front. “Young Sir, can promises really be kept when it comes to getting intimate with each other? It’d be questionable and strange for a man and woman to purely sleep together without touching each other. It’s only normal to get intimate. Besides, you and Young Madam have already given birth to Little Sir… In my opinion, there are two ways you could go about keeping your promise and, at the same time, satisfying your desires.”

“Which two?”

“For one, you may spike Young Madam’s drink with an aphrodisiac. She’ll then take the initiative to get intimate with you.”

“Are your brains fried? Given Xiaoning’s character, she’d definitely move out immediately once the effects of the drug wear off,” Jin Qingyan rebuked.

“There’s another solution, Young Sir. You may drug her with a sleeping pill and knock her unconscious. By then, you can do whatever you want to her without her realizing. That’s all I can come up with for now. I think it’s the most feasible solution too. It’s the best of both worlds. As for keeping to your promise, you only have to let Young Madam know that you honored it. You don’t have to be bothered by your own promises since you were the one who made it. It’s entirely up to you to decide whether or not to stick to it,” said Fan Shixin, who had been single for years and had no experience in dating.

Thinking that he made sense, Jin Qingyan said, “Find me some drugs that won’t be harmful to her health.”

“All incapacitating agents are harmful when ingested. How about incense instead? Not only is it fragrant, it has no harmful effects either.”

“Yes…”

As Jin Qingyan’s able assistant, Fan Shixin had always completed the tasks Jin Qingyan handed him with accuracy and efficiency.

Jin Qingyan lit up the incense and found that it had an extremely mild yet fragrant scent.

He then left the room.

After the incense stick had burned out, Jin Qingyan entered the room again to find that there was no longer the scent of the incense. He then wiped the ashes off the table.

As curious as a cat, Jin Qingyan tried to test the potency of the incense stick.

He then lay in bed and called An Xiaoning’s name several times, but she did not respond.

Jin Qingyan was overjoyed.

He pulled An Xiaoning into his embrace with no qualms.

He then kicked the duvet away and placed his hand beneath her nightdress to feel her smooth and supple skin. He simply could not keep his hands off of her.

He then looked down and began kissing her ears.

He continued to move his lips to her brows and removed his hands from below her head. He then turned over and placed his arms beside her body to support his weight.

At this moment, Jin Qingyan was filled with immense pleasure.

His hormones began raging, and he only stopped after climaxing thrice.

Jin Qingyan was extra meticulous and careful when cleaning up, and he made sure to wipe the fluids off her lower body.

Filled with satisfaction, Jin Qingyan put her nightdress back onto her and pulled the duvet over their bodies. He then lay down beside her and basked in his post-coital mood.

An Xiaoning had a long night’s sleep and only woke up at eleven o’clock the next morning.

The golden rays of sun cast in through the window.

An Xiaoning felt a little uncomfortable the moment she opened her eyes.

She felt a sore ache in her back.

She sat up straight and looked to the side to see that the spot beside her was empty.

She hurriedly proceeded to change into her clothes. She got out of bed and opened her luggage to pick out her outfit. Just as she removed her nightdress, the door opened.

An Xiaoning quickly covered her body with the clothes. Jin Qingyan chuckled and said, “I’ve seen every part of your body before. Must you really hide yourself?”

She did not answer him and instead said, “Go out first.”

“Alright.”

“Wait a minute, where did you hide my undergarments?”

“In the cabinet beside the bed.” He turned around and left with a sly smile on his face.

After watching him leave, An Xiaoning took her undergarments out from the cabinet and put them on.

She put on the baby-blue wool leggings, which she paired with a long rainbow sweater that ended at her knees. She then grabbed her thick cardigan and headed to the bathroom.

After applying some makeup, she took a look at her mobile phone, only to discover that the charging cable had already been plugged out and that her mobile phone was fully charged.

She immediately dialed her mother’s mobile number without hesitation.

Shi Qingzhou only answered after An Xiaoning called her several times. “Hello,” she answered in a hoarse and feeble voice.

“Mother, it’s me.”

“Xiaoning!” She immediately raised her voice agitatedly. Choking between sobs, Shi Qingzhou continued, “Is that you? Tell Mother, is it really you?”

“Yes, yes, it’s me. I made it back alive.”

“You really scared me! I almost couldn’t make it…” said Shi Qingzhou, who soon burst into tears, unable to contain her emotions.

Tears streamed down An Xiaoning’s face as she answered, “I’m sorry to have made you worried.”

“No, Baby, do you know what the greatest blessing in life is? It’s finding out that your death was a false alarm. To me, it’s the best thing I can hear. Thank you for still being alive. When I first heard about your mishap, I almost gave up on life. I kept wondering to myself, just how did something like that happen to you? You left me before we could even spend some time together properly. I was wondering, just what wrong did I do for Heaven to punish me that way? But it’s all good now.”

An Xiaoning nodded profusely, completely agreeing with what her mother said.

“I’m fine now… Mother, you don’t have to worry anymore. I’ll do my best to prevent history from repeating itself. Okay?”

“Tell me, how did you make it out of there?”

After some thought, An Xiaoning told her the truth about everything that had happened.

She did not hide or leave out a single detail.
