Chapter 629: Chapter 377: Is the Prince Mocking Me?_1
Seeing Lu Chen continue to approach and having nowhere else to retreat, Wu Junwan grew even more panicked, as her heart raced crazily and her cheeks became abnormally burning hot.
For some reason, looking at the young man before her, Wu Junwan felt completely unable to harbor any thoughts of resistance in her heart.
As Lu Chen was about to reach her, Wu Junwan immediately threatened, "If Your Highness really makes a move on me, I guarantee that you will regret it!"
Lu Chen said with an unconcerned expression, "Regret? Then, Your Majesty, why don't you tell me where I'll be regretting?"
At this, Lu Chen took another step forward, his leg almost touching Wu Junwan's Phoenix Robe. Wu Junwan's body instinctively leaned back slightly, trying to maintain some distance from Lu Chen.
She then said, "I am the Hostage of Great Wu; if Your Highness lays a hand on me, it will surely incur my imperial father's wrath. It will also reveal Your Highness's true nature to all the great dynasties, and from then on, no defeated kingdom will send hostages to the North Country, and they may even join forces against the North Country."
Lu Chen laughed and said, "What if I don't care about any of that?"
Wu Junwan was momentarily stunned.
This young man must be blinded by lust!
How dare he lay hands on a hostage; that would be breaking the treaty. If the other kingdoms learn of the North Prince's actions, they will definitely no longer trust the North Country's promises.
Just then, Lu Chen lifted his hand and directly grasped Wu Junwan's delicate chin. Wu Junwan's heart skipped a beat. She wished to step back, but she had already reached the edge of the bed, with no way to retreat further; to move back any more would be to fall onto the bed.
At that moment, Wu Junwan suddenly thought of something and, instead of continuing to show a panicked demeanor, she let out a cold laugh.
"Is Your Highness mocking me? I don't believe that Your Highness dares to do that sort of thing to me."
In her heart, Wu Junwan still couldn't believe that Lu Chen would dare to sleep with her. After all, she had once been the Princess Junwan of Great Wu, and although her title had been revoked, the common people of Great Wu still recognized her as their Princess.
If the North Prince dares to defile her, and should the common people of Great Wu come to know of it, they would surely be outraged. Even if the current Great Wu is helpless against the North Country, if the North should occupy Great Wu's lands in the future and seek to rule over it, they will certainly encounter fierce resistance from the common people of Great Wu.
This would be detrimental to the North Prince's plans for unifying the continent.
For the North Country, the greatest challenge isn't in vanquishing a nation, but in how to govern it afterward.
Moreover, there is another danger in what Lu Chen is doing; if he forcibly takes a woman from Great Wu, wouldn't it imply that the soldiers of the North Country are just as ruthless?
As goes the leader, so follow the soldiers.
This would make the common people of the other kingdoms even more fearful of the soldiers of the North Country, and the North's future attempts at unification would surely meet with even more intense resistance.
When passing through Youping County, Wu Junwan had heard that to rule the region, the soldiers from the North Country had treated the locals especially well and refrained from looting or slaughtering. Clearly, Lu Chen was trying to establish a positive image to lessen the hostility of the commoners towards the North Country.
Lu Chen was able to train an army that was strictly disciplined and did not harm the common folk, which proved that he himself was a man of extreme self-control. Therefore, Wu Junwan believed that Lu Chen would surely not do that sort of thing to her.
As for why Lu Chen was putting on a lecherous act in front of her, it was most likely to mock her, to humiliate her.
When Wu Junwan spoke, Lu Chen was taken aback for a moment.
Mocking?
Even now, Wu Junwan thought he was mocking her?
Lu Chen then said, "Whether it's mockery or not, Your Majesty will find out soon enough."
"It's already so late into the night, so let this prince attend to Your Majesty's bedtime."
As he finished speaking, Lu Chen suddenly reached out and encircled Wu Junwan's slender waist, his large hand resting on her hips.
Seeing that Lu Chen was truly making a move on her, Wu Junwan became incredibly panicked in that moment. Was this young man serious?
As Wu Junwan raised her hand to push against Lu Chen's chest, attempting to struggle, Lu Chen's other hand seized Wu Junwan's jade arm.
Wu Junwan twisted her body for a while, but finding herself unable to break free, she stopped struggling.
At this point, Lu Chen's large hand at Wu Junwan's waist was gently stroking her back. Wu Junwan was dressed in a silk Phoenix Robe, which was extremely soft and smooth to the touch, making it very comfortable.
Touched so softly by Lu Chen, Wu Junwan felt a strange sensation within her heart. Seeing that Wu Junwan was not continuing to struggle, Lu Chen smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you continue to resist?"
With her face flushed, Wu Junwan stared hard at Lu Chen and said, "You are a Grandmaster, and I am but a Grandmaster. If you are determined to do that sort of thing to me, I am no match for you."
Lu Chen smiled and asked, "So, Your Majesty has accepted her fate?"
At this moment, Wu Junwan felt as if her heart was about to leap out of her chest; her body had completely begun to stir. She didn't know what was going on; why did she feel so strange when she was near this man?
She had never been so close to a man before, so this was the first time she felt this unusual sensation.
This feeling did not make her uncomfortable.
Seeing Lu Chen from such a close distance, Wu Junwan noticed that he seemed even more handsome and extraordinary. A nameless impulse in her heart made her want to lean closer to him.
At this moment, holding the soft and delicate body of Wu Junwan and smelling the mature and beautiful scent emanating from her, Lu Chen's body also became restless.
He was unable to tolerate it any longer and desperately wanted to possess her right then and there, yet he still forcefully restrained himself and did not start by tearing off her clothes.
Suddenly, the room became quiet, with Lu Chen gazing into Wu Junwan's eyes. Both fell into silence, with a glimmer of desire appearing in their eyes.
After an indeterminate amount of time, Lu Chen finally said, "I've heard that when you visited Great Jue, you often cuddled in bed with the Yue Emperor?"
Upon hearing this sudden statement, Wu Junwan was slightly stunned. Indeed, every time she went to Great Jue, she had to share a bed with the Yue Emperor. However, she did not know how Lu Chen came to know this.
Wu Junwan coldly replied, "What does that have to do with you?"
With a slight smile, Lu Chen responded, "I wonder how it feels when Your Majesty and the Yue Emperor cuddle together?"
Hearing this, Wu Junwan's brows furrowed slightly, but she said nothing.
Seeing the beautiful woman frowning, with an air of cold elegance, Lu Chen could no longer hold back. He leaned down and sealed Wu Junwan's lips with a kiss.
"Mmm mmm mmm…"
Wu Junwan's mind went blank. She had not expected Lu Chen to suddenly launch a surprise attack. Instinctively wanting to struggle, she suddenly found that the skill in her body seemed to be restrained.
After kissing Wu Junwan's lips, Lu Chen slowly wrapped his arms around her waist and laid her on the bedstead. While his mouth kissed her, his hands roamed over Wu Junwan's body.
Once Wu Junwan came back to her senses, she cursed Lu Chen in her heart.
This detestable young man, he truly intended to sleep with her!
Despite their age difference, he actually found interest in her body!
Although she cursed Lu Chen in her mind, Wu Junwan's body couldn't help but cooperate with Lu Chen.
The feeling of kissing Lu Chen made Wu Junwan unable to stop; she felt her entire body come alive, extremely excited; she had never felt this way before.
