Part 1 - Yu Nu Jiao / Jade Slave / Enslaved By Love

Chapter 105 What did You Call Me?

Xie Yun felt that her blood had gone cold. She stared at Yin Ji in a daze: "What did you call me?"

"Yuepin," Yin Ji lowered his head and kissed her neck very lightly. His voice was soft and tender: "Don't you like me calling you that? Then I'll call you baby, okay?"

Xie Yun opened her mouth. She wanted Yin Ji to see who the person in front of her was, but the voice seemed to leave her. She opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't make a syllable. Her struggle and resistance also stopped, as if she had no strength left.

Yin Ji thought she was Xiao Baobao. No wonder he had that attitude just now. No wonder she misunderstood that he was coaxing her...

No, it was not a misunderstanding. He was really coaxing her, but he was not coaxing her, but someone else who was not here.

She looked at the top of the bed blankly. Her heart was in chaos, but she clearly heard something shattered. That was the lie she had been deceiving herself.

She thought that there was still affection between her and Yin Ji, although she never mentioned it, although she dared not admit it, but she had always been so sure in her heart.

Whether it was when Yin Ji used bad words to force her, or when he hurt her for Xiao Baobao, no matter how painful and aggrieved she felt, she always felt that they were different.

He said those words only because he was angry about the regret of the engagement.

But when the word "Baby" came out of his mouth, she realized how wrong she was...

The drum sounded outside, and she came back to her senses in a daze, and then she realized that her cheeks were wet, and her tears flowed down like beads with broken strings. She was a little confused, why did she cry? Obviously she didn't want to cry...

The drum sounded three times in a row, Xie Yun raised her hand and slowly wiped her cheeks, then supported the bed and sat up, it was time to leave, leave this dragon bed.

Also leave this lie that she had deceived herself for a long time.

Suddenly, a pair of hands hugged her waist, gently and firmly pulled her back into the quilt, and then a warm chest pressed against her.

"It's still early, sleep a little longer..."

Yin Ji spoke vaguely, and he naturally let her stay overnight, and no longer treated her harshly.

This embrace was also warm and generous. Being hugged by him like this, it seemed that even the quilt was not needed, but this embrace was not for her, and this indulgence and pampering were not for her.

She was just an uninvited guest who occupied the magpie's nest...

Xie Yun closed her eyes. Obviously, the contrast was so sharp and so glaring, but her beating heart was numb and had no feeling.

Not stuffy, not astringent, not painful.

Perhaps she finally realized that she was no longer qualified to care.

Yin Ji, you always talk about master and slave, always talk about status, then from now on I will only treat you as the master, I will bury Xie Yun who still loves you forever...

The drum sounded again, it was already the fourth watch, it was really time to go.

She gently broke Yin Ji's hands and got off the ground. Her clothes had been torn. She carefully took care of them and put them on, and even covered them with her outer robe. She also picked up the strips of cloth torn by Yin Ji and put them into her sleeves and took them away.

But even so, she was still not decent.

In the past, she would never appear in front of people like this, even at night, but now she was indifferent.

The dignity and pride that she once valued were suddenly not worth mentioning. In fact, she should have understood long ago that no matter what happened in the past, she was just a palace maid now. She always wanted to tell others that she was still different, but in fact... there was no difference.

Even Yin Ji felt that there was no difference.

It was she who couldn't let it go, it was she who was holding it in... It won't be like this again.

She pushed the door open and walked out. The moonlight was like water, and it should be a good day after dawn.

Cai Tianxi was waiting outside the door. Seeing her come out, he hurriedly came to greet her attentively. His movements were crisp and clear. Obviously, the twisted waist he said before was a lie.

Xie Yun didn't expose him, greeted him politely and distantly.

Cai Tianxi was smiling. She came out at this hour, so he can imagine what he did inside.

Looking at Xie Yun again, she didn't have the visible twist on her body before. It seems that Yin Ji cleared up the misunderstanding and the two of them reconciled.

He was sincerely happy: "It's really hard work, young lady. The emperor is rarely drunk. We really don't know what to do."

Xie Yun smiled lightly: "Serving the master is the duty of a servant, how can it be hard."

Cai Tianxi subconsciously wanted to praise Xie Yun for saying this, but he was stunned when the words came to his lips. This is Xie Yun, how could she say such a thing?

He looked over unconsciously, his eyes full of inquiry.

Xie Yun seemed not to notice: "The emperor has fallen asleep, go back and rest, and come to serve on time tomorrow."

Cai Tianxi came back to his senses and quickly agreed. Seeing Xie Yun walking away, he couldn't take his eyes back.

Not sure if he has been observing words and expressions for a long time, and he has developed some problems. He always feels that Xie Yun is a little strange tonight.

Although the sulky look disappeared and her temperament was very peaceful, this peace was very strange, as if it revealed some...

He didn't know how to describe it for a moment, and could only think that he was overthinking. He shook his head and planned to go back to sleep, but the door behind him opened suddenly.

He was startled and turned his head to see that it was Yin Ji who came out.

Didn't she say that he was asleep? How did he wake up?

"Your Majesty, do you have any instructions?"

Yin Ji looked at the palace gate: "Where is she? Did she go out again? Which direction?"

Cai Tianxi was stunned by the question, and came back to his senses after a while: "Your Majesty, are you asking about Miss Xie Yun? What is she doing out at night? She went back to the side hall, you see..."

He pointed, and in just a few words, the lights in the side hall were lit, and it was obvious that Xie Yun really went back.

Yin Ji was silent.

Cai Tianxi was confused: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Yin Ji had a complicated expression, with some regret deep in his eyes. He said the wrong thing. 

When Xie Yun calmed down and didn't say a word, he knew he said the wrong thing.
