Chapter 104: Chapter 104 She Actually Fainted
Leng Yu Yan struggled to get down, but the man’s arms tightened, clenching her even more firmly.
She cautiously raised her eyes to look at him, and from her vantage point in his embrace, she just made out his perfectly chiseled chin, the visible Adam’s apple, and, looking further up, those cold, thin lips.
Tension and panic rose within her simultaneously, “Your Highness, have you perhaps misunderstood something?”
She had not written “you are incapable” on her face; how could he know what she was thinking?
The man said nothing, easily holding her in his arms.
Leng Yu Yan only felt the icy cold embrace of a person taking her towards the room behind her. His embrace was not the least bit warm; she very much disliked it.
Moreover, his overly chilly aura and the powerful oppressive force made her heart start to pound erratically.
“Your Highness, if I have erred in any way, please forgive me.”
Ye Yiheng still did not speak, he carried her into the room and, without any delicacy or compassion, tossed her onto the bed.
The fall from yesterday had left her shoulders and hips aching, and now another fall compounded the pain.
Leng Yu Yan couldn’t even pause to rub the sore spots; she swiftly got off the bed.
She had barely taken a few steps when he seized her wrist.
Ye Yiheng’s other hand swept through the air like a breeze, and the door immediately shut.

This woman, she had drunk with Ji Qingyu again last night, how dare she disregard him?
Had he not come to fetch her last night, had she intended not to return at all?
Thinking thus, Ye Yiheng let go of her wrist and then clasped her delicate neck, forcing her to look at him, “With such restlessness, how should I punish you?”
The man’s voice and actions were both harsh and brutal.
Leng Yu Yan was greatly startled, her fingertips hurriedly reaching for the silver needle in her sleeve.
Dreadful!
She had forgotten to bring it this morning!
Ye Yiheng’s long, pale fingers removed the eye veil, staring at her coldly, “Speak!”
Leng Yu Yan pressed her erratically beating heart, speaking honestly, “I have not been misbehaving, I simply drank excessively last night.”
He let out a scoffing laugh, “Your smile just now had a profound meaning, would you care to explain it?”
Leng Yu Yan’s expression became solemn; what kind of spirit was this man, to discern the implications in her smile? It was quite unsettling.
She bit her lip, her voice barely audible, “Your Highness need not prove anything, whether Your Highness is capable or not, you know it yourself, there’s no need to prove it to me!”
Her words stunned him; this woman genuinely thought he was ineffective.
In his moment of shock, Leng Yu Yan took off running.
She hadn’t gotten two steps away before he enveloped her from behind.
“Let me go!” she struggled fiercely.
The man’s iron arms easily pinned her arms, ignoring her struggles, he whispered in her ear, “You are so restless, I ought to do something.”
His body was like icy snow, just like his words, devoid of any warmth.
She struggled fiercely; her soft, fragrant body in his embrace constantly rubbed against his chest, causing an intense agitation to swiftly rise within him.
Ye Yiheng found this situation highly displeasing.
The cold poison and inner turmoil tangled within him, causing his body to feel restless, as if being torn apart by wild beasts.
In a flash, his phoenix eyes took on a crimson hue; he lifted her up once more and threw her back onto the bed.
As his body moved away from her, the pain gradually lessened, and the agitation inside him began to calm.
“Your Highness, I have not been misbehaving!” Leng Yu Yan retreated into the bed, before her the man appeared utterly impassive, without joy or anger, yet why did his eyes seem ready to devour her at any moment.
Upon hearing her words, he laughed.
He was already devilishly handsome, and his ambiguous emotion only intensified with his laughter.
There was an unfounded intimidation about him, mixed with gloom and cold ruthlessness.
It made Leng Yu Yan’s body tremble uncontrollably.
Seeing her fear him like this, Ye Yiheng’s gaze narrowed sharply, his phoenix eyes suddenly squinting, as his piercing eyes fell directly on her.
For some reason, the restlessness inside him climbed again, compelling him to involuntarily tug at the collar of his brocade robe.
This action, she had encountered it countless times in those dreams, it was his motion whenever he desired her!
The sensations of being tormented by him in the dreams surfaced.
If it were to happen in reality, she would surely be tormented to death.
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. The fear in her heart, combined with her body’s instinctive stress response, made Leng Yu Yan close her eyes and faint straight away.
Ye Yiheng was stunned.
He was just standing by the bed, watching her tremble with fear; he hadn’t done anything to her.
And now, the woman had fainted.
He hadn’t done anything, yet she actually fainted!
Ye Yiheng pressed his temples, truly unable to understand why she was so frightened in his presence repeatedly?
This was not like the ordinary fear of the Imperial Power of the Tian Family, it’s as if she was afraid of a sworn enemy!
Without time to ponder the reason, he stepped forward and patted her cheek, “Leng Yu Yan, wake up.”
Her face was tender and smooth; after being patted, rubbed, and pinched, it quickly flushed with a rosy glow, causing an involuntary roll in his throat.
After calling her a few times with still no response,
Ye Yiheng had no choice but to leave the room and call for Song Guo, “Go fetch Miss Miao Zhu to attend to her.”
Song Guo bowed and asked, “Your Highness, what happened to Miss Lai?”
“She fell asleep,” Ye Yiheng tossed out four cold words and turned to return to the study.
Song Guo was completely baffled. When the Young Master had been chased out earlier, he was waiting right outside the study.
At that time, he thought His Highness was going to do something with Miss Lai in the study, which was why the Young Master was sent away.
Curiosity drove him to peek from the side window of the small building, where he saw the unmistakable figure of His Highness carrying Miss Lai to the room behind the study.
At that moment, he was elated, thinking His Highness had finally come to his senses, His Highness and Miss Lai were going to turn the raw rice into cooked rice!
But, at such a critical moment, how could Miss Lai have fallen asleep?
Or was it that His Highness really couldn’t perform, to the extent of knocking Miss Lai out to cover up the fact that he couldn’t?
The more Song Guo thought about it, the more distressed he became.
The facts had to be as he concluded, His Highness had knocked Miss Lai out to cover up the unspeakable truth.
On his way to Tingfeng Garden, Song Guo pondered how to break the news to Miao Zhu.
When he arrived at Tingfeng Garden and found Miao Zhu.
Song Guo took a deep breath, “Miss Miao Zhu, the miss has fallen asleep in His Highness’s small building, you should go and attend to her.”
“Asleep?” Miao Zhu looked suspiciously at the eunuch beside her, “She just woke up early this morning, how could my miss fall asleep? Eunuch Song Guo, you better not be trying to fool a maid who comes from the countryside, don’t think a maid doesn’t understand the normal routines of the capital!”
“It’s true she fell asleep, His Highness asked for Miss Miao Zhu to hurry over.”
Seeing he did not seem to be lying, Miao Zhu put down her work and followed his steps out of Tingfeng Garden.
As the two headed towards the small building, they met Jian Lecheng, who was kicking stones.
Both greeted him in unison, “Young Master, hope you are well.”
Seeing the two of them, Jian Lecheng quickly stopped them, “Both of you, hold on!”
One was His Highness’s personal eunuch, the other was Miss Lai’s personal maid, they must know something.
Song Guo raised an eyebrow, “Young Master, is there something you need?”
Jian Lecheng gave a light cough, “Mmm, what happened with His Highness and Miss Lai?”
