the small bottle tightly in her hand, pressing it against her plump, towering chest. At this moment, she felt like being surrounded by a fireplace on a cold winter day, warm and comforting.Meanwhile,...Gao Jinhua panicked: "Didn't we agree that I would only... when I was willing..."
Gao Jinhua didn't say anything after that, because Wu Chao hadn't used force against her. Instead, he gently placed her on the bed and covered her with a blanket.
Then, Wu Chao himself sat idly on the straw mat where Gao Jinlian's servant had slept.
"My lady, rest assured! When you are unwilling, I will absolutely not touch you."
After finishing his words, Wu Chao took out the secret manual from Luo Zhenren that he had been given.
After careful study, Wu Chao crossed his legs and, according to the instructions in the book, began to practice breathing exercises.
Slowly, Wu Chao closed his eyes.
He was like an old monk in meditation, with nothing but even breathing and no other movement.
Gao Jinlian sat at the head of the bed, borrowing the flickering candlelight to gaze upon Wu Chao's somewhat handsome face. Her heart fluttered like a bird in flight one moment, and like a fish swimming through the water the next...
"Click."
A strange sound suddenly came from behind Wu Chao's house. Though it sounded a bit out of place, it wasn't actually very loud. Most people wouldn't even hear it, but Wu Chao, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes.
He glanced out the slightly open window, and saw that the sky outside was still black.
This night, he sat cross-legged there the whole time. What was strange was that although he didn't move at all, his body didn't feel uncomfortable in the slightest, instead, he felt particularly comfortable.
When Wu Chao opened his hands, a sound like "crunching bones" echoed throughout his body.
But what surprised Wu Chao even more was that he realized his already short sleeves were now even too tight!
The moment Wu Chao stood up from the ground, the sound of his bones cracking was even more pronounced, like a string of firecrackers going off inside him!
Gao Jinlian was also awakened by the strange sound. After opening her eyes, she vaguely saw a tall figure in the room and was startled!
"Who is it!"
Gao Jinhua hastily lit the lamp, and the dim light illuminated Wu Chao's body.
After seeing Wu Chao's rather handsome face, Gao Jinlian was startled and covered her two sensual red lips.
"My lord, is it you"
Wu Chao's normal height was no more than one meter five, but after this night, his height had jumped to one meter eight!
Although he looks a little thin now, his whole body exudes a very peculiar aura.
Wu Chao was also unbelievably looking at his own hands. After practicing the secret manual given by Lu Zhenren, he felt like a fire had been ignited inside him!
He used to be a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple, practicing a variety of martial arts with a certain level of proficiency in each. However, because he lacked internal energy cultivation, he was unable to achieve the best results.
And now, he knew the fiery energy flowing within him was the legendary inner force!
Nine Suns, Nine Suns!
Although Wu Chao didn't know if what he was practicing was the Jiuyang Divine Art, he was very clear that from now on, he truly had the ability to carve out his own place in this great Song Dynasty!
"Click."
At this moment, Wu Chao's ears twitched slightly, and there were strange sounds coming from downstairs again.
Wu Chao raised an eyebrow and whispered to Gao Jinlian, "Our house might have been burglarized. Don't move on the bed, I'll go check it out."
As he said this, Wu Chao tiptoed down the stairs.
Strangely, although it was still dark outside and the surroundings were pitch black, for some reason Wu Chao's eyes could see things as clearly as an owl's.
Now he is sharp-eared and clear-sighted, his insight far surpassing that of an ordinary person by several folds!
He stood at the foot of the stairs and saw a person sneaking in.
Wu Chao was like a cheetah lurking in the darkness. He remained motionless at first, and when his opponent got close, he pounced!
Wu Chao grabbed the other person's neck and pressed him directly to the ground!
"Your guts are quite plump, daring to steal into my house!"
"My lady, bring the lamp."
When Gao Jinhua took down the oil lamp, the dim light illuminated Bai Sheng's shifty face, and Wu Chao frowned slightly: "Bai Sheng, how is it you"
Bai Sheng offered no resistance and lay flat on the ground. "Big brother, I'm ashamed to face you! Take me to see the officials!"
Wucha pulled Baisheng up from the ground and then brought over two stools. The two sat facing each other.
"Tell me, why did you run to my house in the middle of the night"
Bai Sheng laid everything bare, he "thumped" and knelt before Wu Chao again: "Brother, I deserve to die! I'm not a human!"
Wu Chao slowly stood up and said to Gao Jinlian beside him, "My wife, fetch ten taels."
Wu Chao's voice was deep and thick, with a hint of domineering air.
Though Gao Jinlian felt the sting of parting with her money, she didn't hesitate for a moment. She turned and went upstairs, clinking coins as she fetched ten cents.
"My lord, this money is all we have."
"I know, but now my brothers are in trouble, as the big brother I can't just stand by and do nothing!"
Wu Chao placed the heavy stack of money in Bai Sheng's hand: "Use this to pay off your gambling debts."
"Big brother, you can't do that, you can't!" Bai Sheng waved his hand and shook his head.
"Don't worry about the money, I won't ask for it back. Since I lent it to you, I don't intend to collect it. But you have to promise me something."
Bai Sheng looked at Wu Chao with teary eyes. “Big brother! You are my reborn parents! I can’t repay the life-saving grace you have shown me! From now on, this lowly life of mine belongs to you!”
"Don't even say it's one thing, even if it were a thousand things, my subordinates would all agree!"
Wu Chao patted Bai Sheng's shoulder and said earnestly, "A good man should have aspirations all over the world. A person should be a truly upright man!"
"My demands of you aren't high, just from now on, don't touch gambling again!"
After Bai Sheng promised a thousand times, he tightly clutched the money and walked out of Wu Chao's main gate. He hurried to pay off the debt.
Gao Jinlian stood quietly beside Wu Chao the whole time, she didn't say a word from beginning to end.
Wu Chao looked at Gao Jinlian and asked, "My wife, why don't you speak Don't you feel sorry for this money"
After all, ten taels is a large sum! Any woman would probably be nagging and making a fuss, jumping up and down.
However, to Wu Chao's surprise, Gao Jinlian shook her head slightly. She looked at Wu Chao with a very gentle and soft gaze.
Just now, Wu Chao's words actually touched Gao Jinlian. Although she is a woman, which woman doesn't want her man to be a great hero
She used to look down on Wu Chao because he was timid and cowardly, shrinking back from any challenge.
She even pessimistically thought that if one day she was raped by some man, this Wu Dalang might not say a word.
And now, although Wu Chao in front of her seemed very unfamiliar to Gao Jinlian, she felt an indescribable beauty.
"This servant also thinks that what the master did is right. As the master said before, we can earn money again if it's gone, but there's only one life for a person. The master is willing to give up wealth to save a life. In this servant's eyes, the master is a truly great hero!"
Wu Chao nodded, hugged Gao Jinlian's slender waist, and said solemnly: "My wife, since it's still early, let's go back to the transmission and take a nap."as long as I, Wu Chao, am alive, I will protect her from any harm!!" These words echoed incessantly in her mind!Similarly, Wu Chao was the first man to have intimate contact with her. Although the sit...
