My Years in the Jianghu with the Prince: A Time of Unethical Conduct

Chapter 130 Recognition



Chapter 130 Recognition

Xie Yan slowly fed Chu Ling a breath.

Just as he was about to leave, thinking it was about time, he suddenly felt Chu Ling's hand around his waist tighten.

The warm, moist sensation entered his mouth, not only drawing in the air from Xie Yan's mouth, but also stimulating his tongue.

Xie Yan gripped Chu Ling's arms tightly, her eyes wide, her pupils trembling slightly.

Xie Yan: "..."

Dude! Can't you see the situation? You're about to drown, and you're still in the mood for this?

Pieces continued to fall, whizzing past the two men. Amidst the churning water, their figures remained intertwined.

Xie Yan couldn't pull her head out, and Chu Ling's embrace was getting tighter and tighter, leaving her no room to paddle.

He didn't know how Chu Ling was feeling, but he felt like he was about to suffocate.

Then, Xie Yan, still feeling dizzy, was finally released by Chu Ling in a moment of mercy, and swam upwards with him.

Xie Yan, held in his arms: "..."

*&%+@……You promised you wouldn't lie?! Are you a dog?! If I ever believe you again, I'll change my surname to Xie!!

The two surfaced, and before Xie Yan could catch her breath, everything went black, and Chu Ling suddenly covered her mouth again.

If he was in the water just now, because the situation was critical, he couldn't feel anything.

Now, he could clearly feel the rhythm coming from Chu Ling's tightly pressed chest, each impact causing his heart to pound violently.

The person in front of him was breathing heavily, and his hot breath hit Xie Yan's face, making it impossible for him to close his mouth.

Even though the two were still in the water, the temperature emanating from Chu Ling seemed much hotter than usual.

Not only the body, but even the temperature entangled in the mouth was frighteningly hot.

Xie Yan was already dizzy from lack of oxygen while in the water, and now she felt her head buzzing, as if she were floating on clouds, feeling hazy and confused.

Even his grip on Chu Ling's arm was weak; it was more like a gentle, teasing scratch than a grab.

After an unknown amount of time, when Xie Yan was once again unable to breathe, Chu Ling finally released him.

The warm breath moved from his face to his neck, and Chu Ling's smiling voice came, "Breathe."

Xie Yan, who had never experienced such stimulation in either of her lives, was completely dizzy and disoriented. Before she could even process what was happening, she instinctively listened to Chu Ling's words and took a deep breath.

Chu Ling buried his face in his neck and chuckled softly twice.

Then Xie Yan felt the warmth that had just been in his mouth slowly brushing against her neck, and she suddenly held her breath.

Perhaps it was because the river water was too cold, but his body began to feel numb as he soaked in it.

But before Chu Ling could continue, Xie Yan had already come to her senses.

He grabbed Chu Ling by the back of his collar and ruthlessly pulled the man off his neck.

A faint pink tinge clung to the corner of his eye, making him even more alluring, accentuated by the mole, while his lips were rendered an even deeper crimson.

At first glance, it looks like rouge has been evenly applied, making it vibrant and beautiful.

Chu Ling's eyes darkened, and he lowered his head, just about to do it again.

He was slapped across the face.

Xie Yan's hand pressed firmly against Chu Ling's face, sneering as she slapped him, "Heh, heh, afraid of water?"

But Chu Ling was not angry at all after being slapped. Instead, he smiled and gently licked Xie Yan's palm.

Xie Yan: "..."

What, you got your fill of beating me up, huh?

Xie Yan was so agitated by the damp heat in her palm that she shuddered violently and tried to pull her hand back.

But Chu Ling saw through his actions and preemptively reached out and covered the back of his hand.

Fingertips slipped through his fingers, gripping him tightly, unshakeable.

Xie Yan: "..."

Hey buddy, look at the situation! Behind you! That pillar behind you is about to crash down!

Broken planks floated on the water's surface, igniting bright flames from the explosion.

"caught you."

In the dim light of the fire, Chu Ling's eyes were half-closed, his long eyelashes casting shadows in the firelight, making his face appear hazy and soft.

Xie Yan pursed her lips, gave up on pulling her hand back, sighed, and asked, "When did you recognize me?"

Chu Ling took his hand and slowly approached Xie Yan until their noses were almost touching before he smiled slightly at Xie Yan.

At the same time, his other hand, which had been resting on Xie Yan's waist, slowly moved up, tracing her spine upwards.

The movements were gentle, bringing Xie Yan a tingling, itchy, and numb sensation.

Finally, his fingers slowly stopped a few inches below Xie Yan's nape and pressed down hard.

"You probably don't know that you have two red moles here, one above the other."

"That's why she didn't care at all when she was changing clothes with her back to me at the Dong residence."

Xie Yan was stunned by his words and didn't quite understand what Chu Ling meant.

Chu Ling's fingertips slowly slid from the back of Xie Yan's neck to the corner of her reddened eye, gently massaging the mole.

"I wasn't entirely sure based on the mole on your back, but your mask was shattered at the Cheng family's birthday banquet."

The mole on the back can be considered a coincidence, but the one at the corner of the eye can't be called a coincidence either, can it?

As their eyes met, Xie Yan felt her heart pounding like a drum, deafeningly loud, under Chu Ling's burning gaze.

At that moment, he realized what was happening.

Chu Ling looked at Xie Yan, sighed softly, and then reached out and gently pinched Xie Yan's flushed cheek.

"You're pretending not to know me, you little liar."

Xie Yan frowned, her face being pulled by him, and subconsciously retorted, "Wait, no, didn't you lie to me too?"

Chu Ling raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze intense. "When have I ever lied to you?"

The hand pinching her face tightened, making Xie Yan's speech somewhat unclear.

"Li, didn't you say you couldn't swim?"

Chu Ling smiled and said, "I seem to remember saying I was afraid of water."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yan's pupils dilated in shock: ...So being afraid of water and not being able to swim are two different things? You actually tried to pull this kind of linguistic trick on me??

Seeing him like this, Chu Ling couldn't help but bury his face in his neck and chuckle a few times before explaining, "I really couldn't swim before, but I forced myself to learn."

"But I am also afraid of water. If you hadn't come just now, I might have..."

Chu Ling paused for a moment, then tightened his grip on Xie Yan's arm.

Since that experience, he has indeed kept his distance from water. Even Xuanfeng and the others know that their prince doesn't like to be near places with a lot of water.

But Chu Ling wouldn't allow this weakness to persist, so he forced himself to face it and overcome it.

Although the process was somewhat unsightly.

But in retrospect, the result is not bad.
