Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter

Chapter 353 A man’s indenture of selling himself

Seeing such a beauty that was crying, Du Yao couldn’t help being erotogenic and the philter in his body began to get out of control, but he was afraid that she might resist again by pricking him with needles. And he might be overreacting and hurt her again if he couldn’t control himself well. Therefore, he hit her at her acupoint when she was off guard and pushed her against the bookshelf. He ripped off one of the buttons on her clothes and smelled the delicate fragrance on her fair neck. He consulted with her semi-consciously, “You just obey me now and we can finish the engagement contract after this, okay? I’m suffering from the philter prepared by Xue Xiao. I have to do this.”

He Danggui was very scared but she tried hard to stay calm. She said to the excited satyr, “First, I’m menstruating. Second, without the engagement contract, we’re not a couple so we can’t be this intimate. If you dare to take further action, I’ll end my life here!”

“I’ll end my life here!”

He Danggui thought what she said was a bit feeble, but after she had threatened Chang Nuo with it before, she succeeded in scaring Du Yao as well. Hearing it, Du Yao felt his heart was poured with cold water. He loosened her immediately and relieved her acupoint that controlled her upper body. He said in a soft tone, “We can talk. I’m not that impatient. I can wait for half a day. Since your lower body is not convenient, we can solve it with other places. I won’t require too much. If it’s still uncomfortable for you, even just holding you will be enough.”

He Danggui soothed his evil intent in a soft tone first and told him the engagement contract was something she had been craving for. She wouldn’t talk about anything unless she got it. However, her real thought was that she should get the acupoint controlling her lower body relieved first and knocked out Du Yao while he was writing. What a shameless satyr, villain, and freak!

Then, Du Yao was cajoled by her and wrote down many “unequal treaties” in the engagement contract, even including monogamy. At first, he tried to refute, but he failed since she was so glib. He could just keep writing one stroke at a time but later, he needed to do it hastily to keep up with her speed. He had written a dozen pages before he realized it. He wrote with one hand and fed Zhenqi to her with another. He actually knew that she just wanted to take more but He Danggui didn’t know he also wanted to gain petty advantages by putting his hand on her back as long as possible.

He Danggui knew that the contract had no legal force, so she just told him all the expectations and requirements she ever had about her future husband. Seeing Du Yao writing down all she said, she was very amazed. Judging from his appearance, Du Yao was a rude and self-willed man and always called himself arrogantly. He was very similar to those rude northern men. However she looked at him, she still thought he’s utterly different from the “perfect husband” she wanted to have. However, when she told Meng Xuan those expectations and requirements, he agreed on nothing. Du Yao was nearly a stranger to her, but he wrote down all of them obediently and even signed with his thumb at last!

He was serious about it. He agreed those “unequal treaties” solemnly.

He Danggui looked at Du Yao’s face and such a thought flashed through her mind. She never thought a tall and strong man like him would be so silly despite his appearance. He even sold himself with some pages just because he was attracted by her for now! Seeing his eyes fixed on her and the saliva almost running out of his mouth, she believed he would do as she said even if she asked him to sign an indenture to sell himself and an IOU for about a hundred thousand taels of silver. She didn’t know there was such an idiot among the calculated imperial guards.

As she was thinking, she sensed some hotness on her back and it became stronger like fire gradually. She felt numbness all over her body like the continuous waves. She struggled and asked Du Yao to stop feeding Zhenqi to her. She questioned him fiercely if he had done anything vicious to her because she felt she was frozen, and why he was so shabby and malicious and still did it after she had agreed to marry him.

But Du Yao was also panicked. He said, “There is a kind of suction and your body is absorbing my Zhenqi rapidly and crazily! You said it wrong. You’re the shabby one! Did I irritate you? You even... No! How could a kung fu player absorb others’ internal force with the back? I’ve never heard of this before. Who on earth are you?” While saying it, he tried hard to withdraw his hand and his forehead was covered with sweat, but he failed.

He Danggui thought Du Yao wasn’t lying or pretending to be panicked. Moreover, she had agreed to marry him so he didn’t need to risk his internal force like this. Such feeding speed was so awful and dangerous that both of them might get mad and explode easily.

And she felt the situation was a bit similar. That night at the banquet in Luo’s Mansion, Meng Xuan came to take her internal force. She also couldn’t get rid of him no matter how she struggled and beat him. Though she kept moving, one of Meng Xuan’s hands, chest and legs was still sticking to her. It’s not “pressing” or “grabbing” but “sticking” as if there was suction between them. What’s different was that she was the one being absorbed internal force that day and now she was absorbing that of another man. And at that time when Meng Xuan was doing it, he had everything under control and he could decide how much and fast he absorbed it, but now she could do nothing and felt she was suffocated and forced to drink river water!

Right. She remembered it. Meng Xuan once said, “Sorry. I began ‘borrowing’ it as soon as I held you just now. There’s a feature about my kung fu. Once I touch someone that is off guard, his or her internal force will keep being absorbed by me unless I take off my hand.”

His kung fu? Was it the kind of kung fu written in the book he left her? Did she grasp that kind of kung fu unconsciously? But how could she stop it? Meng Xuan hadn’t taught her this before!

While she was thinking about it, Du Yao kept begging for mercy. He said, “You’re about to suck me dry! Although I want you to do so, I didn’t mean it in this way. Are you going to kill your future husband? If you killed me, who would sleep with you later?”

He Danggui became furious. She thought, “How could this satyr still think about that at this time? He deserves to be sucked all internal force by me! I seem to have sensed numbness similar to hot waves inside my body. Does it mean I’m about to explode? What should I do? Help me, Meng Xuan!”

Then, she kept taking away Du Yao’s internal force and nearly two hours had passed. “Bang! Bang! Bang!” Suddenly, someone was knocking at the door violently and then, a rude and angry voice of a man sounded, “Give us the woman! Du Yao, give her to us!”

Neither He Danggui nor Du Yao answered him, because at this critical moment of feeding Zhenqi, if they were interfered with by others and the process got interrupted forcibly, today would be their death anniversary next year. What’s more, both of them had good hearing and they were very close to the next room where some people were having sex. They heard it very clearly. Du Yao couldn’t stop his evil intent not just because of the philter. Mostly he was affected by the sound from the next room. How could he still be a gentleman with such a pretty woman beside him?

He Danggui recognized the female voice in the next room. It belonged to Guan Zhan, the Fourth Miss in Guan’s Mansion, who was always the foe to Qing’er and her when they were in Chengxu Academy. She also heard Liao Zhiyuan’s voice in the room where a dissolute game was going on. She felt sick and confused instantly. Qing’er often mentioned old stories about this half-blooded elder brother. She told He Danggui that Liao Zhiyuan always kept a distance from women before he got married. The last time Qing’er saw him and his wife was in last month. She praised that they were very close and such a model couple. How would Liao Zhiyuan become like this now? Did anything go wrong in his family?

As for the man who was knocking at the door violently outside, Du Yao whispered to her, “His name is Song Fei and he’s crazy about sex. One woman a day isn’t enough for him. Now he must have tortured a woman to death and he’s coming to you. Ms. He, if you don’t want to be his victim, you should marry me. As the saying goes, a friend’s wife shall be respected. He and I are kind of close. He won’t catch you as long as you become my wife.”

Just after Du Yao finished his words, Guan Zhan in the next room cried out fiercely for some unknown inhumane treatment. He Danggui felt her blood frozen when hearing it. She began to sympathize with Guan Zhan who was weak and seldom left her home. How could she be so unlucky and get in such a dangerous place? She even met her cousin, Liao Zhiyuan, who wasn’t sober and didn’t save her but tortured her worse.

At this time, Du Yao almost lost all his internal force. His face turned pale and a bit sweaty. He couldn’t even stand but he kept molesting He Danggui. Hugging her from behind while she was scared by Guan Zhan’s cry and trembled, he grinned weakly and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t be that rude. You won’t feel the pain she felt.”

Before He Danggui could push him away with her elbow, she heard a familiar clear voice not far from the door. “Xue Xiao, what are you doing? Song Fei, where are your clothes? Who is crying?” He Danggui trembled again. It’s him! Duan Xiaolou was here!

Du Yao felt she was trembling, so he asked, “What’s wrong? Do you feel cold?” He got no response. Then, he whispered to her again, “That’s Duke Ruting, General Duan, Deputy Fourth-Grade. His Majesty thinks highly of him. Don’t be afraid. He doesn’t like women. The woman he likes doesn’t like him, so he likes men now.” Then, Du Yao felt He Danggui shivered even more. He wanted to hold her tight to warm her, but he gradually became powerless. With his eyes closed slowly, he fell backward.

It turned out that the feeding of Zhenqi was over and he couldn’t hold her anymore... Du Yao thought about this and passed out. His body temperature kept decreasing and his face was almost as pale as He Danggui’s. The blackness under his eyes got worse. It seemed he’s at death’s door.

He Danggui regained freedom and the acupoint controlling her legs was also relieved, but how could she be happy after seeing the condition of Du Yao? Though he looked evil, he wasn’t a villain at all and he shouldn’t die like this because of her. Thus, she became a strong woman and lifted the man weighing about fifty kilos. She put him on the bed and tuck him in. Then, she gave first aid to him with silver needles on the needle guard wrapping around her wrist. The acupoints she needed to prick were in the middle of his chest. To perform first aid conveniently, she ripped off his shirts without hesitation.

Since Du Yao was in a coma, he didn’t know that he was lucky. A beauty was “ripping off his clothes”, “touching his chest” and “doing whatever she wanted” to him. While He Danggui was giving him first aid, she also listened to what Duan Xiaolou was saying very carefully. His voice was so pleasant that He Danggui felt it had been lifetimes since she last heard his voice up close.

“What are you two men doing here? Who was crying just now? Is that the lady who was looking for her horse?”

“Xue Xiao, you mean there’s another woman here besides her? Where did you get them? That lady looked decent and self-loving. Would she be willing to play this game with you? I don’t believe you. I want to talk to her.”

Decent and self-loving? Was this his impression of her when they met again outside the restaurant? But... he couldn’t recognize her after all.

“Indulging in pleasure is bitter. In the end, you’ll only find bitterness. I have tried this before, but it’s useless. The pain you got rid of at that time will come back to you in the future and it’ll get worse. All of your sins will overlap. Your pain belongs to yourself and you should endure it. If you let others take it for you, it will come back to you one day.”

Hearing this, He Danggui trembled and felt her nose was sore. The tears burned her face and the needle in her hand quivered as well, which immediately woke up Du Yao who was dying.
