Dual Cultivation God Returns

Chapter 312 Time

Time passed and the room gradually became slightly brighter until the first rays of sunlight from the windows that led outside hit the ceiling and started to slowly expand and crawl down to the walls. The distinct morning quiet when the nightlife retreated to dwellings and the daylight life has yet to start bustling permeated the surroundings.

"Mmn"

The soft body in his arms slightly shook, and then she opened her eyes, a slight panic appearing in them, as her dazed consciousness tried to ascertain that what happened yesterday was not just a dream, and was immediately quelled as she felt a warm embrace around her. She turned her head and looked up, seeing a tender gaze, one that made her heart melt. The secure and comfortable feeling of his arms wrapped around her made her feel the happiness that radiated brightly, changing the world around from bleak and dull to vibrant and overflowing with beauty.

The rays of sunlight that shone through the windows were like new hope that came into her life, a new dawn that shined upon her. Her lips curved into a smile of sheer happiness, and she raised her hand to trace, ever so softly, the side of his handsome face with her delicate fingers, then going on to trace his hair.

Their eyes were locked as she slowly took in this feeling, and neither of them were willing to break this peaceful silence.

After some time, when the sun rays were hitting the wall on the other side in a straight horizontal line, there appeared a muffled buzzing of clerks coming in to work in the hall down below as they went about starting their workday and greeted the others.

She ruefully smiled as she realized that however much she wanted it to, the time still moved along and did not let her be in this blissful moment forever.

\'Time\'

When she though of it, she felt a biting regret, as well as felt herself to have been foolish.

\'Why did I hesitate and not accept him earlier? What was the point of this year?\'

The years before when she gradually turned into a part of the company and her feelings were getting more and more dull she did not feel any suffering from the passage of time. It felt normal to her that a day flew by, and then another one turning into a week and then a month. Entire years went by without notice and she rushed through them blind and deaf to everything around, numb to any stimuli, unaware of the passage of time, as if in a trance.

But the past year was different. She was awake, painfully so. The first few weeks she felt invigorated from being reborn, and also focused since she knew that her company was facing a serious challenge.

A few months after he left the capital Sui Luxiao received a notice that he visited a branch in Tingren Kingdom, going further south, and realized that he might just disappear like that. It was from then on that she felt every minute stretch, as anxiety that he will never come back for her answer grew more with each passing day, as well as when she felt how futile it was to live just to live or create a company just for the sake of a company.

Now that she felt this happiness she realized even more acutely, how much she messed up by not accepting him then, and how that year of misery could have easily been avoided.

He smiled at her and traced her hairline with his fingers, tenderly tucking a lock that came out of her complicated hairstyle that was now disheveled behind her ear.

She closed her eyes as she relished in the comfortable sensation, and opened them again as she slightly sighed.

"I better start fixing my appearance"

He simply smiled, nodding at her and she very reluctantly sat up. She did not want to leave his embrace, but the clamor from the hall down below was getting louder as more and more clerks started to come in for work, and she knew that soon her attendants would be coming in to the reception room behind the office door.

She stood up and went to the bathroom as he sat up on the sofa, which coincidentally was the one he usually cultivated on after their treatment sessions before. She slowly walked, feeling his gaze on her alluring backside and felt a rush at this nostalgic feeling.

Sui Luxiao reached the bathroom and turned to the side to the mirror above the sink, not leaving the door frame. She slightly smiled at the disheveled appearance in the reflection and then, bent down to unlock her shoes, her sensual body in the tight dress making a mind-stirring curve.

As she stepped on the bathroom rug she bent a little forward to uncover the back side of her dress to take the sides of her torn tights and lacy underwear, and while sliding them down around the curve of her plump and alluring butt, slowly bent further down, the fabric passing down her long and elegant legs as she lowered the lingerie to her ankles, and gracefully took one leg after another out of it.

Her cheeks slightly flushed rosy as she felt the gaze from the side, and a rush of excitement ran through her, feeling the unspoken emotions in that look with her skin and the joy they brough to her.

She did not want him to remove her tights and underwear partially because she was somehow attached to this routine, one that started spontaneously and yet captivated her.

She cleaned herself a little with warm wet towels and then soft dry ones, noticing to her surprise that despite the amounts of both of their fluids that were leaking from her the night before, she was basically already clean and the rosiness on her cheeks intensified as she felt how thoroughly he took care of her after she fell unconscious.

She took out a new pair of high-class panties and the same kind of tights and wore them one by one, as the scene of them sliding up her legs and the curve of her ass were reflected in the eyes of the man sitting on the sofa.

After she was done with the tights, she took the straps of the dress she was wearing off of her shoulders and the dress slid down to her waist, as she slowly moved it down until it fell to the floor beside her feet as she remained in tights and underwear. She took out the same kind of dress down to the detail and put it on, finishing up by loosening her hair before tying it up into a neat complicated hairstyle before fixing the light make up.

She then noticed slight red marks on her neck and shoulders, and blushed as she took out a cape shawl that had a high collar that tightly wrapped around her elegant neck and covered her shoulders while leaving a triangular space in front from the collar to the sides.

He chuckled at how prepared she was, realizing that she was ready for him the whole time, placing the same kind of dress she wore and tights along with a matching shawl in her spatial ring every day of the past year just in case he showed up. He realized that he would be able to see this scene he liked when she stopped him from taking off the tights, and a light of appreciation ran through his eyes as he watched her come out of the bathroom fully refreshed.

The rays of sun were now going through the windows at a slightly downward angle, illuminating her figure as she passed them and approached him, but unlike the previous times, instead of placing his ring on the low table she circled around the table and bending down placed a kiss on his lips.

As their mouths parted he smiled at her and they both chuckled.

She then came to the desk, but noticing that there was nothing to clean up simply unlocked the doors and deactivated the isolating formations.

After making sure there were no signs of what happened here last night, she came to the sofa and sat next to him since there was still some time. But as she looked at him her eyes widened since she realized that he was in the gate of the Revolving Qi Realm despite being in the Qi Manifestation Realm when they met the night before.
