Chapter 56: Too Beautiful to Resist
Catherine was driven mad with anger. She rushed over to pull her down, but before she could get close, she saw the faintly glowing Double Pupils of the male lion shoot out a light of suppression and warning.
She instantly felt a bit breathless. Her royal brother was actually using the power of his Double Pupils against her… for Su Miantang? In his eyes, there seemed to be no trace of her, his royal sister; it was all that little vixen!
The two people and one lion walked straight toward the Eastern Palace. At the entrance, the male lion lowered his body slightly and let down the little female on his back. The little female patted his head like a reward, just like petting a dog, with no dignity to speak of whatsoever. Meanwhile, Hua Rong watching from the side actually showed a somewhat jealous expression and also leaned his head over, begging her to pet him.
“?!” Catherine was completely dumbfounded. Just what kind of bewitching potion had Su Miantang fed him… fed them? She suddenly remembered the mocking words she had said before entering the palaceāEven the lowest-born, lowest-grade prince wouldn’t take a fancy to a female without pheromones, so stop your wishful thinking!
But now, the Emperor, the Crown Princeāthe people with the highest status in the palaceāwere all bowing beneath her pomegranate skirt. It was infuriating!
The three of them acted affectionately for quite a while before separating.
Su Miantang unwrapped a piece of candy, put it in her mouth, and turned around to see Catherine running over angrily, craning her neck and gritting her teeth. “Stretching your neck out so long, do you want a pat too?”
“You!” Catherine wanted to release her pheromones to make her kneel and beg for mercy, but she was afraid her royal brother would come out to settle the score with her. “What exactly have you done to my royal brother? To make him submit to you so obediently? And staying in Bamboo Peak for so long, you weren’t engaging in illicit acts on the mountain with my royal brother and Hua Rong, like you did when you seduced the Twin Stars, were you…”
The moment she opened her mouth, Su Miantang knew what she was going to say and directly shoved a piece of candy into it to block it. “Rinse your mouth.”
“Didn’t we agree that you would help my royal brother restore his human form?” “I am currently carrying out the first step, taming him. In another two days, I should be able to lead him into the laboratory.”
She could feel that the Big Golden Retriever had already developed trust in her. Next, she only needed to properly consolidate this trust, and she could begin treatment.
“I thought…” Catherine started to speak, but when she chewed on the marshmallow, her voice abruptly stopped.
What kind of candy is this? Why is it so delicious!
Su Miantang stretched lazily. “I’m tired, going back to rest.” “Oh, right, get angry less, it will accelerate skin aging.”
What? Catherine was frightened and immediately held her face with both hands. Was that true? She wasn’t lying to her, was she? She turned her face and watched the young girl’s fading figure. Her angry emotions gradually calmed down. Thinking about it carefully, the Imperial Twin Stars, the beautiful white tiger, and her cold-natured royal brother… they had all been conquered by her.
Everything she had said had also been fulfilled one by one. Could it be that this time, it was also true?!
She didn’t dare to imagine how happy their mother would be if her royal brother truly restored his human form, and how prosperous the future of the royal family would become!
“Princess.” Beside her, a guard knelt on the ground with some worry. “Should we report the news of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stepping out of the Eastern Palace to the Queen?”
“No need.” She thought for a moment and shook her head. “Let’s observe a bit longer.” If everything was just an illusion, it would only make their mother disappointed and heartbroken for nothing.
The final step of beast tamingāafter it has submitted to you, do not rush to exert your authority. Play with it, make it happy, let it rely on you wholeheartedly and be willing to face fear and danger for you, and a loyal beast slave is basically cultivated.
Su Miantang closed her book. Over the next few days, she began to use various methods to make the Big Golden Retriever happy. She made candies and small toys for him, took him to fly kites at Bamboo Peak, went hunting, played games… The male lion was full of energy and radiant. His cheerful figure and galloping footsteps covered the mountains and plains.
He had never been this happy. His entire being seemed bathed in happiness. The sum of his twenty-plus years of life couldn’t rival half the joy of these past few days with the little female.
During the day, while practicing the power of his Double Pupils, he discovered a new functionāX-ray vision. The first experimental target was the little female.
He inadvertently glanced at her and saw the towering, full, perfect chest shape. He hurriedly and panickily turned his head away, but… unable to resist the temptation, he shamelessly turned back.
This time, what he saw was the little female leaning over slightly, revealing the round, perky lines of her buttocks. Immediately, his head grew hot, his blood surged, and a primitive, uncontrollable, crazy impulse surged wildly within his body.
Then, he got a nosebleed.
Su Miantang bent over to pick up the kite and saw this scene. “?” A… a nosebleed? Why was this scene so familiar?
The last one to get a nosebleed looking at her was Lanlan, because he saw… But in broad daylight, fully clothed, why would he…?
Wait! Su Miantang keenly observed his sneaky behavior. Hiding to the side, stealing glances at her from time to time, looking only at the key areas, and with his Double Pupils faintly glowing, she somewhat understood.
She bent down again and slowly picked up a thick bamboo pole from the ground.
Then, with the speed of a thunderbolt, she angrily charged toward the male lion. “Big Golden Retriever, if your eyes dare to shoot thieving glances again, I’ll gouge them all out!”
“Awoooā” The male lion jumped in fright, turned, and ran.
He had been discovered! He didn’t do it on purpose either… it was just too beautiful, he simply couldn’t resist.
His crime was quickly punished. After catching him and teaching him a severe lesson, Su Miantang forced him to play a card game. He had never played before and lost almost every round. His face was covered in paper strips, his forehead was flicked countless times, and the triumphant little female laughed until she trembled.
But he was naturally intelligent. He quickly learned and won his first round.
“A miscalculation.” Su Miantang threw the cards away somewhat unwillingly, closed her eyes, and leaned her small face toward him. “Flick it, but your paws are so big, be gentle.”
The male lion was instantly mesmerized by her magnified, magnificently beautiful face. He stared blankly, completely unwilling to flick her even once, only wanting to…
He suddenly stuck out his tongue and licked her face from top to bottom, then shyly turned and ran.
Su Miantang shivered. “…” Why is it raining?!
At night, the male lion lay in his cage, tightly hugging the golden retriever plushie the little female had given him, sniffing her exclusive scent on it. Thinking of her smiles, frowns, and every movement during the day, he was so excited he couldn’t sleep at all. When he finally fell asleep, his dreams were entirely filled with her.
He had the exact same dream as the first time he met her, using his sharp claws to shred her clothes bit by bit and devour her.
But this time, the scene was completely different. When he woke up, he buried his head in his body in shame. He felt both dirty and wishing the dream would come true.
As soon as the sky began to brighten, he opened his eyes, craning his neck to look outside, waiting patiently. Now, the only thing supporting his will to live every day was the little female’s words, “Tomorrow, I will come again.”
It has been almost ten days since entering the palace… Su Miantang counted on her fingers. Lanlan was about to wake up, she had to go back!
