Chapter 198: Discovered!

The moment Yang Xun’s fingertip touched that tender region, Yang Cai’s body jolted violently.

"Ngh~"

A tingling current shot from the point of contact and spread through her entire body. Yang Cai couldn’t help but let out a soft moan as her body went rigid, as if she’d been electrocuted. Her hands clutched tightly at the bedsheets, and her breathing grew ragged.

"Don’t be nervous. Relax."

Yang Xun soothed in a deep voice, keeping his tone as steady as possible.

Yang Cai bit her lip and nodded hard. She slowly unclenched her tight fists, and her body gradually began to relax.

Sensing that Yang Cai was no longer so stiff, Yang Xun’s fingers began to move slowly.

He, however, held to a firm bottom line: he would absolutely not enter her with his fingers and take his sister’s virginity.

Therefore, his fingertip remained only on the tender outer region, gently drawing circles and constantly varying the pressure and rhythm.

At the same time, Yang Xun quietly began to circulate his True Qi, channeling a sliver of warm energy from his fingertip into Yang Cai’s body. This stream of True Qi was like a current of warm water, flowing slowly along her meridians and bringing an unprecedented tingling sensation wherever it passed.

"Mmm... Brother..."

Yang Cai’s eyes were closed, her long eyelashes fluttering nonstop. Her lips were slightly parted, her breathing growing ever more rapid. At some point, her hands had grabbed Yang Xun’s arm, her nails digging into his muscles through his sleeve.

Stimulated by the True Qi, the tingling sensation was magnified manifold, washing over her body in wave after wave. It made her heart, which had never before experienced such intimacy, pound faster and faster.

Yang Xun kept his eyes closed the entire time, not daring to look at Yang Cai’s expression. He just silently coordinated his fingers and True Qi, helping her channel away the feverish heat inside her.

Time passed, minute by minute, second by second.

After about twenty minutes, Yang Cai’s body suddenly tensed violently. Her legs involuntarily clamped around Yang Xun’s hand, her entire being like a fully drawn bowstring.

"Brother... I..."

Before she could finish, Yang Cai’s body began to tremble violently, like waves crashing against the shore, one after another.

She bit her lip hard as a suppressed whimper escaped from deep in her throat. As if all her strength had been drained away, she went limp on the bed.

At that very moment, Yang Xun sharply sensed a stream of exceptionally pure Primordial Yin Qi emanating from within Yang Cai’s body. It spread out in all directions, like morning mist in the mountains.

Yang Xun dared not delay. He immediately began circulating the Yin Yang Dragon and Phoenix Technique at full power to absorb and refine all of this precious Primordial Yin Qi.

That pure energy surged into his Dantian. Although the amount wasn’t particularly large, its quality was exceptionally high, and it instantly merged with his True Qi.

After it was all over, Yang Xun withdrew his hand and let out a long breath.

The next second, as if a door to a new world had just opened, Yang Cai was like a newborn fawn. She threw herself into Yang Xun’s broad embrace, hugging his waist tightly and burying her head deep in his chest.

"Brother... Thank you..."

Yang Cai’s voice was heavy with exhaustion. After the whole ordeal, the feverish heat that had been troubling her had completely subsided, replaced by an unprecedented feeling of relief and contentment.

Yang Xun put his arm around Yang Cai’s shoulders, gently patting her back. "Go to sleep," he said softly.

Yang Cai nodded obediently and closed her eyes. Just seconds later, she was fast asleep.

Exhausted, Yang Xun closed his eyes as well. The brother and sister remained nestled closely together until dawn.

...

"Holy shit!!"

Early in the morning, a shout of utter shock, like a clap of thunder, erupted from the doorway!

Yang Xun and Yang Cai were startled awake at almost the same time. Their eyes shot open as they looked toward the sound.

There stood Mi Ting in the doorway, one hand still on the doorknob, frozen to the spot. Her face was a mask of astonishment, her jaw practically on the floor.

At first, neither of them registered what was happening.

But the next second, Yang Xun looked down and realized he was holding Yang Cai tightly in his arms.

And Yang Cai was curled up in his embrace, their position unmistakably intimate.

’Crap!’

"You two carry on. I’m just gonna go get some breakfast."

After saying this with a complicated expression, Mi Ting immediately turned and fled, her steps so quick it was as if a ghost were chasing her.

Once out of the room, Mi Ting’s heart was still pounding wildly. She never would have dreamed that the brother and sister were actually sleeping together!

’This is just insane!’

Meanwhile, back in the room, Yang Xun and Yang Cai’s eyes met, and expressions of utter embarrassment simultaneously appeared on their faces.

"We’re done for. Sister Ting saw us..."

Yang Cai blushed and pulled the blanket over her head.

Feeling utterly helpless, Yang Xun scratched his head and sighed. "Let’s hurry up and get dressed."

The two of them scrambled to get dressed, and after washing up, they made their way to the dining table one after the other.

Mi Ting and Chen Xiafang were already at the table, on which sat several small side dishes and a basket of steaming hot buns.

The four of them sat together, and the atmosphere was incredibly awkward.

No one spoke. The air seemed to have frozen solid.

"Come on, don’t just stand there. Eat while it’s hot."

In the end, it was Chen Xiafang who broke the awkward silence. She stood up with a cheerful smile, gave Yang Xun and Yang Cai two buns each, placing them in their bowls, and never once mentioned what had happened that morning.

Following Chen Xiafang’s lead, the atmosphere gradually eased. The four of them ate and chatted, slowly returning to how they usually were.

Halfway through the meal, Yang Xun suddenly put down his chopsticks, his expression turning serious.

"Auntie, Sister Ting, Xiaocai, you all can’t stay here for the next few days. I’m going to get a hotel for you, and you can stay there for a while."

Hearing this, the three women all put down their chopsticks and looked at him in confusion.

"Why, Brother? Why do we suddenly have to move out when everything is fine?"

Yang Cai asked, confused.

Mi Ting also frowned. "Did something happen?"

Yang Xun was silent for a moment, choosing his words carefully before speaking. "I have some business to take care of with Xie Haitao. The man is ruthless. To prevent him from coming after you, you all need to hide for a while. You can come back after I’ve handled things."

Hearing his words, the three women glanced at one another. Though their faces showed worry, none of them asked any more questions or hesitated in the slightest.

"Okay, we’ll do as you say," Mi Ting was the first to nod.

Chen Xiafang also nodded. "Xiaoxun, you need to be careful, too."

Although her face was filled with worry, Yang Cai also said obediently, "Brother, you have to be safe."

They were all well aware that in a matter like this, they couldn’t help Yang Xun. The only thing they could do was not cause him any trouble or hold him back.

After the meal, the three women quickly packed.

Yang Xun led them out of Xiaoxie Village.

As the four of them walked out of the village entrance, no one noticed a skinny man squatting in an inconspicuous corner under an old locust tree. He was chewing on a bun, seemingly paying casual attention to the people coming and going.

The moment Yang Xun’s group of four came into view, the man’s gaze sharpened. He silently took out his phone, aimed the lens in their direction, and pressed the shutter button.

After taking the picture, he stuck the bun between his teeth and quickly dialed a number.

Once the call connected, the man lowered his voice and said hoarsely:

"Boss, he’s left the village with the others!"
