Top Soldier Pursued by a Beauty

The car stopped in front of the Jiang family's home, and both of them were still shaken.

Zhao Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief. That was Kou Hongmin, the top of the East Sea's Heavenly List! I don't know how strong he is, but he's definitely far beyond the Grandmaster Realm. If we had really fought, I wouldn't have stood a chance of survival.

At this moment, Jiang Nianyu was also breathing heavily. Zhao Dong's frantic driving had sent her blood pressure soaring. Seeing her slightly pale face, Zhao Dong asked with concern, "Are you okay, Nianyu?"

Jiang Nianyu rolled her eyes at him. "I'm fine. You just scared me half to death! That was Kou Hongmin! How could you be so reckless?"

Zhao Dong chuckled. "How could I have gotten this treasure if I didn't take a risk? A cultivator has to be daring enough to challenge danger."

Jiang Nianyu gave him a deep look. "You might have enjoyed that challenge, but now Kou Hongmin will surely hunt you down and kill you. You'd better figure out what to do. And don't forget Hong Wu. You have a feud with him, too. Do you really think you can survive?"

Zhao Dong frowned, a flicker of anxiety rising in his heart. I've made a mortal enemy of Kou Hongmin. I have to get stronger, and quickly. Otherwise, he might come for me tonight or tomorrow.

As this thought crossed his mind, he glanced at the Zixuan Grass in the back seat and was shocked. The once vibrant herb was already showing signs of wilting.

Zhao Dong slapped his forehead. "Damn it! Once Zixuan Grass is picked, it has to be absorbed within an hour, or its medicinal properties will be completely lost!"

Jiang Nianyu's expression changed. "Is that really true?!"

Zhao Dong was anxious now. "Nianyu, I have to get back right away. Time is tight."

Jiang Nianyu furrowed her brow for a moment, then said, "Zhao Dong, don't go back. Listen to me. Come to my house right now and refine the Zixuan Grass. If something happened to you on the way, it would be a total disaster. Besides, this is the Jiang family estate. At the very least, I can keep watch for you here."

Zhao Dong hesitated for a moment, then realized she was right. "Okay, I'll have to trouble you then, Nianyu."

Jiang Nianyu pouted and shot him a sideways glance. "You've already touched me all over. Why are you still being so polite?"

Zhao Dong scratched his head, a bitter smile on his face, unsure of what to say.

Suddenly, Jiang Nianyu looked at him with a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Zhao Dong, it's not like you can touch me for free. Now that you have, you have to take responsibility, you know!"

Zhao Dong froze, his face flushing red. "How do you want me to take responsibility?"

Jiang Nianyu huffed. "You touched every part of me. No other man has ever done that. How do you think you should take responsibility?"

Zhao Dong spread his hands helplessly. "I really don't know. You tell me."

Jiang Nianyu glared at him in frustration. "You blockhead! I don't know if you're really this dense or just playing dumb!"

As she spoke, a bewitching smile bloomed on her face. She leaned in, her red lips brushing against Zhao Dong's ear as she whispered with a tempting charm, "Do you want to sleep with me? If you do, I'll be your woman. Wouldn't you know how to take responsibility for me then?"

A jolt shot through Zhao Dong. Jiang Nianyu's lips were right there, her breath as fragrant as an orchid, while a faint, seductive scent drifted from her body to his nose. He glanced down and saw her ample, alluring bosom.

Zhao Dong swallowed hard. "Nianyu, stop joking. You're a lady of the Jiang family, and I'm a nobody. Besides, you're set to marry into the Yun Family. How could I dare sleep with you?"

Jiang Nianyu rolled her eyes, her face a mask of exasperation. She gritted her teeth and said, "You fool! I never realized you were such a coward. You're a huge disappointment!"

Zhao Dong gave a wry smile. "It's not about being a coward. You know I have other women in my life. Can you accept that?"

Jiang Nianyu pursed her lips. "What's there to not accept? If you're capable enough, the number of women you have doesn't matter."

"This..."

Jiang Nianyu studied him for a moment longer before shaking her head with a smile. "Alright, I was just teasing you. Let's go. Get to my place and absorb that Zixuan Grass."

Zhao Dong nodded without protest, knowing that absorbing the Zixuan Grass was the top priority. He drove the car into the Jiang family estate.

The estate contained three villas: one for Old Master Jiang, one for Jiang Nianyu's family, and one for her cousin Jiang Xue's family.

Soon, they pulled up in front of Jiang Nianyu's villa. She whispered, "Zhao Dong, be quiet. My mom and dad are asleep on the first floor."

Zhao Dong's heart skipped a beat, and he grew nervous. "It's probably not a good idea for me to be here so late. Maybe I should just go!"

Jiang Nianyu smiled. "It's fine. Just be quiet."

Zhao Dong was hesitant. Coming to Jiang Nianyu's house this late at night feels like I'm a thief. But she's right. If I rush home now and don't make it in time to refine and absorb the Zixuan Grass, this will all have been for nothing. With this in mind, he finally nodded.

They got out of the car and tiptoed towards the villa.

Jiang Nianyu carefully pushed the door open and waved Zhao Dong inside. He followed her in, and after she quietly closed the door, they tiptoed up the stairs together.

When they finally reached the second floor, Zhao Dong let out a silent sigh of relief. He was glad they hadn't been discovered; that would have been truly embarrassing.

Jiang Nianyu's bedroom was on the second floor. It was spacious and warmly decorated, with a huge balcony, expensive furniture, and an en-suite bathroom. A faint, pleasant fragrance filled the air.

Jiang Nianyu locked the door behind them, and they both finally relaxed.

Zhao Dong scratched his head and looked at her with a wry smile. "Coming here so late at night... I feel a bit uneasy. Sorry to trouble you tonight."
