Chapter 132: Plan *

"..."

The awkward silence made Xuefeng's heart race.

'Fuck, I shouldn't have slapped her butt again...' Xuefeng cursed, not knowing what was he thinking at that time. In his mind, it was meant to be a distraction, focusing her anger on one thing instead of the whole affair.

He stared at Golden Queen's feet as if trying to figure out her thoughts when he heard Ling in his mind.

'Congratulations Xuefeng, you survived another day.'

'Huh? I did?' Xuefeng wondered when he realized Golden Queen was no longer barefoot. Her legs lost its nakedness as leather shoelaces gently wrapped around her calves.

Xuefeng's instinct told him to look higher but he didn't dare yet, waiting for Golden Queen's judgment. She eventually moved, walking up to him and lifted his chin with her slender fingers.

She once again wore a similar Golden dress, but what made Xuefeng worried was her poker face. He couldn't figure out what exactly would happen to him.

"Get up. I will believe you for now," Golden Queen declared, before squeezing his chin as she directed his gaze at her own. "Just to be clear. I didn't forgive you for what you did to me today. You took advantage of me when I wasn't fully conscious. If you wanted to help me, you could wait till later."

Sharpening her gaze, she added, "I'm only letting you off today because I still haven't decided if I want to kill you or not. I will choose your punishment based on your performance. If I see you were honest, I will only choose something light or maybe even reward you, but if you dared to lie to me..."

She paused as she glanced down at his waist.

"I will make sure the punishment is filled with tortures."

Gulp.

He swallowed heavily, knowing very well she was capable of fulfilling her threat.

"Miss Golden, I promise. Everything I said is the truth. My intentions were pure," Xuefeng vowed sincerely.

"We will see about that," Golden Queen nodded, finally releasing him. "Now tell me, how are you going to cleanse this Curse you say I have?"

Finally free, Xuefeng couldn't help but sigh in relief, happy his persuasion skills were still top-notch. There was no situation he couldn't solve.

"It's not a problem. We have to—"

Xuefeng stood up and began explaining when Golden Queen stopped him, giving his body a look over.

"I don't mind watching your body, but maybe you should put something on first. Your erection is a bit distracting."

Her comment made him look down and realize he was still hard, displaying his body to her in full view. He was so used to being naked around his wives that he didn't even think about it.

"Right... That would be best," Xuefeng muttered awkwardly.

He quickly put on a full set of Leather Armor but even with that, it was hard to cover his massive erection.

"Ehem..." Xuefeng cleared his throat. "Miss Golden's beauty is making me react this hard. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I don't really mind. Me looking at it is the least problematic after what we have done already..." Golden Queen pointed out before sighing, "Ah, I should have known you are not my husband. Yours is much bigger than his. Why didn't I notice it?"

"I think Miss Golden was just caught in the moment..." Xuefeng replied innocently but received a glare from her.

"You know my husband will kill you if he learns about this?" Golden Queen questioned.

"Miss Golden can do that as well yet you didn't. It is best to keep it a secret from him for the both of us," Xuefeng suggested as he scratched his head. "We can't go back in time. We can only accept whatever happened and move on."

"Fine, but don't put all the blame on me or I beat you up," Golden Queen warned. "It would be unfair for me to pretend I'm innocent so we are equally guilty. After all, who was the one who smacked my butt as he pleases?"

"Alright. We are both equally guilty then," Xuefeng nodded in compromise.

Even though he considered himself the one being taken advantage of, he could take that one for the team.

"Tsk," Golden Queen snickered. "So you admit you enjoyed it? I knew it."

She laid that trap nicely but Xuefeng only shrugged.

"Miss Golden, find any man who wouldn't. Even though it was never my intention, it would be a lie if I said I was suffering," Xuefeng admitted. "My Master for sure lives in a dreamland with Miss Golden by his side."

He noticed a slight curve in Golden Queen's face when she ignored the reply, changing the subject.

"Okay, what's the plan then?"

"It has been a while already, so our lovers are probably worried. How about we meet tomorrow after the Tournament? I will cleanse your Curse at that time," Xuefeng proposed.

"How are you going to explain what happened? You don't think about telling your wives what we did?" Golden Queen questioned.

"I actually do," Xuefeng replied without hesitation, causing Golden Queen to frown.

"But there is a difference," He added right away. "My wives know me well and they trust me fully. With my Fate Spirits being my wives as well, they know I didn't mean bad. On the other hand, your husband will not believe anything we say and simply kill me."

The frown on Golden Queen's face lessened. She couldn't deny that fact.

"How do you plan to convince him nothing happened?"

It was clear Golden Queen still loved her husband, not wanting to ruin her marriage with a simple misunderstanding.

"Does he know you are naked during your episodes?" Xuefeng asked casually.

"No? I don't think so. I always wear clothes before leaving and if I can vent my anger elsewhere then I don't even need this barrier," Golden Queen muttered. "Why?"

Xuefeng smiled. "Don't worry then. I know what to do. Let's go meet him."

Golden Queen squinted her eyes but she seemed to trust him enough as she lifted her hand, ready to collect the Golden Lightning.

Swoosh!

She began sucking it all inside her palm when she turned around and asked in wonder.

"Out of curiosity, what do you think of Xinyu?"
