REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

"It wasn\'t me who locked the door," he said, turning back to Fu Xie Lan.

Fu Xie Lan, who saw this rolled her eyes in embarrassment, was Wan Lie not taking her side anymore? The girl then stepped closer to the window and opened it, a tinge of orange filled the sky, the scorching sun was slowly dimming, soon night would come.

​​

Staring out the window, all she saw was the wall fence of the inn, a tree that stood firmly right by the window gave a slight cooling sensation to her body. Removing her mask and the robe she was wearing, she then closed her eyelids and took a deep breath, the late afternoon wind that blew her hair and managed to reveal her long neck. For a moment, the girl forgot that she was not alone in the room.

"Are you teasing me?" a voice suddenly caught her attention, Gu Yi\'s strong arms wrapped around her stomach and hugged her from behind.

Reflexively she turned around without letting go of the man\'s hand which was still wrapped around her stomach. She looked into Gu Yi\'s eyes, who was also staring at her at that moment.

Their eyes met for a few seconds without any movement from the two of them.

"Can I ask something?" said Fu Xie Lan suddenly.

"Whatever it is," Gu Yi replied with a gentle smile.

"First, why do you always follow me?"

"Secondly, why do you always call me Queen? I\'m not your queen, and again I have a name."

"Third..." she added a little doubtfully.

"Third?" Gu Yi said with one eyebrow raised.

"I don\'t know your name yet," Fu Xie Lan replied with her eyes lowered as if embarrassed for asking this.

Seeing Fu Xie Lan\'s expression, the man chuckled.

"Are you that curious?"

Fu Xie Lan just kept quiet and nodded faintly.

Gu Yi then turned the girl\'s body back to him, his head then slowly moved and stopped right on top of Fu Xie Lan\'s shoulder, more precisely the girl\'s shoulder supporting his chin.

Fu Xie Lan who felt Gu Yi\'s breath against her neck made her breath hold without her realizing it.

They stood in that position for a few seconds.

"For the first and second questions, I don\'t have a specific answer, dear. The only thing that could be my answer is because I am comfortable around you," Gu Yi replied in such a delicate tone of voice.

Fu Xie Lan didn\'t respond and just listened to that man talking on her shoulder. The movement of his chin as the man spoke gave her body a strange sensation.

"As for the third question, umm, you can call me whatever you want," he said again and then kissed the girl\'s neck which had almost made him forget himself.

At the same time, Fu Xie Lan\'s body reflexively stiffened, feeling the man\'s soft lips touching her skin managed to cause a strange tingle in her.

"Breathe, honey."

"I don\'t want you to die just because I hugged you," said Gu Yi chuckling when he felt Fu Xie Lan\'s breath had been held for a while.

Fu Xie Lan, who didn\'t realize this, immediately rebelled, letting go of the man\'s hand that was perfectly wrapped around her stomach and pushed him away.

"I told you, don\'t touch me without permission!" she said as if she had come back to her senses.

"I don\'t like it," she added breathlessly. It was true that she was holding her breath but the girl was embarrassed to admit it.

"Is it true?" Gu Yi chuckled. The blush that was visible on the girl\'s cheeks made the other side of him feel excited.

"I want to rest. You\'d better get out," said Fu Xie Lan, massaging her forehead.

"Just rest, I won\'t bother you," Gu Yi replied unmoving from his spot.

Fu Xie Lan rolled her eyes at the man\'s answer.

"If you don\'t leave immediately, let me out," said Fu Xie Lan. She couldn\'t rest in peace if the man was still in the room. She is a normal and good girl, staying with a guy in the same room is something that can\'t be justified, whatever the reason. Even though she was in a different world from her previous life, it didn\'t change the rules she held fast to.

Seeing that the man didn\'t budge from his spot either, Fu Xie Lan was a little annoyed.

"Do not want?"

"Okay, let me go out," she added again immediately walking towards the door.

The movement of her hand that was turning the doorknob to open it stopped when she remembered that the room had been locked from the outside by Wan Lie.

Gu Yi who saw Fu Xie Lan\'s attitude raised one of his eyebrows, a faint smile plastered on his lips.

"Why? Need help?" he chuckled.

Fu Xie Lan who heard the man\'s words cursed herself, how could she forget that the door was locked? Does she have to break the door?

Fu Xie Lan was inflamed, silent for a moment not knowing what to do.

One second...

Two seconds...

Silent at that position, Fu Xie Lan did nothing.

The girl\'s body suddenly turned around and looked at Gu Yi who was also looking at her with a seductive smile.

"Huh...." Fu Xie Lan was annoyed.

Not running out of ideas, the girl then walked over to the window and prepared to get out of there.

Suddenly Gu Yi who was previously still standing in place quickly stopped the girl from leaving the room.

"Alright, alright. I give up," he said again lifting Fu Xie Lan\'s body which was almost up the window. Previously, Gu Yi was only nosy at the girl.

He just wanted to see how Fu Xie Lan\'s expression when she realized that the door was locked from the outside, would she broke it down or blow it up? Gu Yi was a little curious, he didn\'t expect that none of his guesses came to pass. The man never thought that the girl would choose another alternative to get out of the room.

Fu Xie Lan who heard the man\'s words just snorted.

"Put me down," she snapped. Now she was really upset, either because of herself or because of the man. She didn\'t know.

"Okay, okay, honey. Don\'t fight or you will fall," said Gu Yi immediately lowering Fu Xie Lan\'s body and bring her body on the bed very carefully.

"I\'m going out," he said later.

Fu Xie Lan didn\'t reply to the man\'s words and just nodded nonchalantly. She got up and took a sitting position. Her eyes followed Gu Yi\'s body who was walking very slowly towards the window.

"I\'ll be right back, honey. Wait for me," he said before actually getting out of there.

"DON\'T THINK OF GOING BACK, I WILL BREAK YOUR BONE," shouted Fu Xie Lan to the man who had disappeared from behind the window.

"Huh, you perverted man," she said, laying back down and relaxing her body.
