What did you do with this bellyband?

Chapter 63 What did you do with this bellyband?

The two walked through the dimly lit cave, and after about half an hour, a narrow stone door appeared in front of them.

Beside the stone gate, there is a button.

After pressing the button, the stone door slowly opened.

Night fell into the cave, and Li Chuqiu carried Chu Wanqing out. Looking around, they realized it was already dark, and the two were in a secluded courtyard near a rockery within the Jing Prince's residence.

The cave entrance the two had just emerged from slowly closed, making it difficult to detect from the outside that there was actually an entrance to an underground palace!

"How come you're so familiar with this underground palace?"

Li Chuqiu looked down at Chu Wanqing in his arms. Just now, in the underground palace, he was able to walk out smoothly without any obstacles thanks to the guidance of this demoness.

Chu Wanqing rolled her eyes, her face puffed up with anger, clearly still resentful that this guy had "accidentally" touched her chest earlier.

Although Li Chuqiu swore that it was absolutely accidental—Chu Wanqing didn't believe a word of it.

Was it not intentional?

Why did he dare to pinch her again after she discovered and stopped him, even though it wasn't intentional?

He even tried to argue that it was a subconscious action?

Is it true that all men in the world are the same?

Ah!

Chu Wanqing no longer believed a single word.

If I weren't so badly injured and weak in demonic power, I would definitely teach him a lesson!

snort!

—I'll deal with him once I recover from my injuries.

Chu Wanqing was indignant, but had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill for the time being.

"Can you get down now?"

They were now back on the surface. All was quiet, with twinkling stars shining from the Jing Prince's residence not far away. They had spent most of the day in this underground palace, and still had no idea what the situation was like outside.

Chu Wanqing struggled to get up from Li Chuqiu's arms. As soon as she stepped on the ground, she was still a little unsteady on her feet, her steps were unsteady, and her legs were a little weak.

She took a deep breath, stepped back, and then straightened her still slightly disheveled and damp clothes.

Before she could finish tidying up, a hand was stretched out in front of her.

"half!"

Chu Wanqing was taken aback, looking at the large hand stretched out in front of her, and then seeing Li Chuqiu asking for it as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Then he remembered that not long ago in the underground palace, he had promised this guy that he would share half of the Purple Qi Returning to Origin Pill with him!

This guy really can't stand to suffer any loss, and he remembers every benefit he can gain very clearly.

Chu Wanqing was amused and annoyed, glaring at him through gritted teeth: "So impatient, is it? All you care about is the pills?"

Li Chuqiu immediately looked suspicious: "Are you trying to renege on your promise again?"

Seeing his greedy appearance, Chu Wanqing really didn't want to give it to him.

""

However, when she thought about how this guy had saved her several times today and carried her all the way out of the underground palace, her eyes softened again.

Chu Wanqing didn't argue with him. She took out the exquisite little porcelain bottle that had previously contained the "Purple Qi Returning to Origin Pill" from her bosom and tossed it to Li Chuqiu.

Li Chuqiu instinctively caught it, opened it, and saw the divine pill emitting purple light inside: "Didn't we agree to split it in half?"

"Since you saved this saintess today, I'll give you the other half as a reward."

Chu Wanqing snorted softly, glanced at him again, and reminded him, "This pill is extremely rare. Keep it safe and absolutely do not let anyone know about it, or you will be killed."

Li Chuqiu, of course, didn't stand on ceremony or stand on ceremony. She immediately put the lid on the porcelain bottle, stuffed it into her bosom, and put it away safely.

"Thank you for the gift, Saintess Chu!"

Stop being so cheeky!

Chu Wanqing rolled her eyes dramatically and gave a soft snort.

She was in a good mood.

At this moment, the night was dark.

Chu Wanqing quietly looked at Li Chuqiu in front of her, and the more she looked at this face, the more pleasing it seemed to her, and the more strange she felt.

From the first moment Chu Wanqing saw this guy, she realized he was exactly her type. And all that happened today completely changed her opinion of him.

I can't quite put my finger on it, it's just...

Why does it get better and better to look at something the more you look at it?

—She didn't even seem that angry about him touching her breasts earlier?

As she pondered, Chu Wanqing's gaze shifted downwards.

Suddenly, her alluring eyes widened slightly as she realized something—?

As Li Chuqiu tucked the porcelain bottle containing the "Purple Qi Returning to Origin Pill" into her bosom, she inadvertently brought out a touch of pink—a striking pink in the dim light that caught her attention.

What is this?

Chu Wanqing subconsciously stepped forward, grabbed the pink corner, and gently tugged it.

What are you doing?

Li Chuqiu was stunned. Before he could react to what this vixen was going to do, he saw Chu Wanqing reach out and pull a small piece of cloth from his arms.

It's pink, made of light gauze silk, embroidered with delicate and intricate patterns. It's damp, very soft, very supple, and smells wonderful.

Chu Wanqing stared blankly at the small piece of cloth that had appeared in her hand, momentarily unable to process what it was—what was this?!

Is this a bellyband?!

The sheer fabric, as thin as a cicada's wing, and the translucent quality of the gauze—it's clearly a woman's intimate undergarment!

Chu Wanqing was stunned for a moment, and when she finally realized what she was holding in her hand, her expression changed!

He suddenly looked up, his eyes fixed on Li Chuqiu.

When Li Chuqiu saw the familiar little bib, the smile on her face disappeared—oh no, how could she have forgotten about this?

I found this bodice in the Crown Princess's bath room before. It looked familiar, so I decided to take it back and study it.

Who could have imagined that so many things would happen that day, and he would completely forget about the bellyband.

Who could have predicted that this vixen would discover them?!

What's the difference between this and running naked in the street?

In the darkness, Chu Wanqing's bright peach blossom eyes stared intently at him, as if carrying a strong sense of questioning.

It was quiet all around.

Li Chuqiu thought for a moment, trying to clear herself of any suspicion of being a pervert: "It's not mine."

"I know."

Chu Wanqing said expressionlessly, "You can't fit into it either."

Li Chuqiu: "?"

"What I mean is, I didn't wear it, and I didn't steal it—I'm not a pervert!"

"So, where did it come from?"

Chu Wanqing's gaze fell on the undergarment, and seeing the rare embarrassment on Li Chuqiu's face, she smiled faintly, a half-smile playing on her lips: "From which woman did you take this?"

"You couldn't have bought it yourself, could you?"

Li Chuqiu: "————"

For some reason, she felt that the enchantress's eyes were full of mockery. At the same time, a strange emotion was brewing within her.

He seems very angry?

—No, why is she angry?

Li Chuqiu suddenly realized that it had nothing to do with her, so why was she asking?

Shouldn't we condemn her for taking what belongs to her?

Li Chuqiu reached out to snatch the undergarment, but Chu Wanqing dodged it. She took a step back and glanced at the undergarment in her hand.

She was really angry!

Especially when she first saw the bellyband, she was furious!

Where did this bellyband come from?

Where did this guy get that bellyband?

Stolen? Robbed? Taken from another woman?

Or was it bought for another woman?!

When these thoughts surfaced, Chu Wanqing felt as if some intense emotion was piling up in her chest, making her very uncomfortable.

It's so congested!

It felt like the man who was originally hers had suddenly fallen for another woman—that intense possessiveness almost made her lose control of her emotions.

She couldn't quite put her finger on it—she just felt really uncomfortable.

I really want to hit someone!

However, Chu Wanqing quickly calmed down.

She knew this guy, that he lived alone, and that he knew his second uncle and aunt. She even learned from his second aunt that he had remained celibate all these years and had no other women by his side.

Therefore, it certainly wasn't bought for another woman.

Thinking of this, Chu Wanqing's anger and tension immediately subsided by more than half.

That's good, it wasn't bought for another woman.

So, where did this bellyband come from?

besides----

As Chu Wanqing gradually calmed down, she soon realized that the undergarment did not seem to be new.

It looks like someone has walked through here?

More importantly————

Chu Wanqing suddenly realized that the undergarment looked somewhat familiar.

etc----

When Chu Wanqing's gaze fell intently on the bodice, she seemed to remember something. She glanced down at her chest, then stared at the bodice again, and subconsciously leaned closer to sniff it.

The next second, her expression froze, a hint of embarrassment appearing on her face. A trace of astonishment and disbelief surfaced in her alluring eyes.

She suddenly looked up: "Where did you get this undergarment?!"

"I found it."

Chu Wanqing stared at him, a blush rising to her fair face, her breathing slightly rapid: "Where did you pick it up from?"

"On the street."

By this time, Li Chuqiu had completely calmed down. Since she had already been discovered, she didn't care what happened: "I just happened to find it on the street, and I was planning to return it to its owner out of honesty."

If this undergarment were replaced with something else, there probably wouldn't be any problem at all.

But it was precisely this piece of clothing worn close to a woman's body.

You can find this on the street?

And they returned the lost money to its owner?

Chu Wanqing doesn't believe him for a second!

This undergarment is clearly—

Chu Wanqing's face flushed even more: "Where did you pick this up from? Did you... did you use it to do something bad?!"

Li Chuqiu: "?"

You can question my character, but you can't question my taste!

"You really don't?"

Chu Wanqing stared at his face with suspicion.

She had heard that there was a type of pervert in this world who liked to steal women's undergarments, panties, stockings and other intimate clothing to do bad things—euphemistically called "original flavor for entertainment"?

Why would this guy be carrying a woman's undergarment in his arms? Could it be that he's planning to do something bad?

The thought of what might have been an indescribable scene made Chu Wanqing feel hot all over and inexplicably uncomfortable.

"No, this undergarment isn't yours, why are you asking so many questions!"

Li Chuqiu wanted to snatch the undergarment back, quickly destroy the evidence, and then deny everything.

But Chu Wanqing was prepared. She hid her undergarment behind her back, her face flushed, and spat through gritted teeth, "Pah! You filthy scoundrel—you have no shame!"

"Don't even think about using it for anything bad!"

Li Chuqiu: "??"

Why is she so agitated?

Seemingly realizing her emotions had been a bit too obvious, Chu Wanqing took another deep breath, then glared at him: "This thing—I'll destroy it for you, you're not allowed to do such a vulgar thing!"

"And one more thing—I'm leaving!"

Fearing that staying any longer would expose her, Chu Wanqing quickly turned around and ran away, displaying a rather hasty and desperate air.

A moment later, she arrived at the courtyard and glanced back at Li Chuqiu. In the darkness, her peach blossom eyes seemed to hold some emotion.

The next second, she swayed and disappeared in a streak of red light.

Li Chuqiu stood there, expressionless.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Were they really treated like a pervert?

After a long while, he sighed. Luckily, he hadn't taken the undergarment for anything, otherwise he would have been in real trouble.

Composing himself, he looked around and realized it was getting late, so he prepared to go back. But as soon as he left the courtyard, he was spotted by the guards of the manor.

"Who goes there?!"

Footsteps sounded, and soon a familiar figure came into view.

Chen Muye!

Upon seeing Li Chuqiu, Chen Muyi's gaze sharpened, and he immediately scrutinized her from head to toe: "It's you?!"

"Whoosh!"

When Chen Muye saw Li Chuqiu, soaking wet and sneaking around in the middle of the night, he abruptly drew his sword, pointed it at Li Chuqiu, and said with a serious and wary expression, "What is your purpose here in the middle of the night? Tell me the truth!"

As he drew his sword, the other guards around him followed suit, surrounding Li Chuqiu.

Li Chuqiu never expected to run into the head guard of Prince Jing's mansion again.

However, he remained completely calm, stating matter-of-factly, "The Heavenly Mystery Division is ordered to capture the demon!"

"Catch a demon? What demon?!"

Chen Muye stared at Li Chuqiu.

Li Chuqiu remained composed, having already prepared her explanation: "Today, I was ordered by Deputy Commander Liu and Lord Xu to come to the Prince's Mansion to thoroughly investigate the assassination of Prince Jing's heir. However, I inadvertently discovered that a demon clan member was hiding in the mansion—I followed the trail and found traces of the demon clan member Feng Taxue and the demon clan protector Qianxie in the mansion's underground palace—"

Raise a big flag, then cut out the beginning and end of today's events, hide the existence of the Crown Princess and Chu Wanqing, and bring out Feng Taxue and Qianxie.

As the Chief Envoy of the Tianxuan Division, it was only natural for Li Chuqiu to be ordered to capture demons. Relying on this status, he naturally felt fearless.

Chen Muye's expression changed slightly when he heard the name Qian Xie.

"You mean, Qianxie went into the underground palace?!"

"Exactly!"

"not good!"

Chen Muye's expression changed, and he was about to speak when a voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

"The underground palace? Who went into the underground palace?!"

The crowd parted, and an old man shrouded in a black robe appeared, his features obscured.

He walked quickly closer and asked anxiously.

When Chen Muyi saw the person who had arrived, he was clearly surprised and astonished: "Elder Yun, what are you doing here? Weren't you in the underground palace—"

As if remembering something, Chen Muye's expression turned very ugly.

The old man in black robes ignored Chen Muye, strode forward, and stared intently at Li Chuqiu: "Little one, you just said that some demons broke into the underground palace?"

Li Chuqiu was startled. The old man in black robes exuded a powerful aura that he couldn't quite see through.

"Exactly!"

"Oh no, oh no!"

The old man in black robes realized something and slapped his thigh: "I knew I shouldn't have listened to the prince's nonsense! It's all over—my elixirs are ruined!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man in black robes suddenly vanished from his spot and quickly headed towards the entrance of the underground palace.
