This only allowed Li Yun to kiss her more deeply.
He didn't stop until Ming Lingyi's lips were nearly swollen from his kisses.
Letting the reins go slack, they drifted with the horse for an unknown amount of time before Li Yun finally released Ming Lingyi and took hold of the reins once more.
But how could a mere passionate kiss possibly quell the fire raging within him?
If anything, it was only growing stronger.
"HYAH—"
With a deep cry, Li Yun held Ming Lingyi close and galloped toward Ju Garden.
This was a chrysanthemum garden in the suburb of the capital, but more specifically, it was a garden within the Royal Hot Spring Villa.
Li Yun carried Ming Lingyi straight to his usual residence, which was connected to a natural hot spring pool.
The moment they entered, Ming Lingyi felt the humidity in the air and caught the faint, natural scent of sulfur.
During the last stretch of the ride to Ju Garden, she had recovered and no longer felt so weak she couldn't move.
