Chapter 116 - Devil’s Touch

A few minutes later, Lee Tao received news that Zuo Xiaoli had arrived at the Liu Clan from a servant.

"Bring her to my personal office." Lee Tao ordered the servant.

"Understood, Young Master Lee Tao." The servant quickly replied and left the scene.

Meanwhile, Lee Tao carried Tang Lingling to the bed and covered her with the blanket.

"You're not going to wake her up?" Xiao Chu asked in surprise.

Lee Tao shook his head.

"What I'm about to do is not something she should see." Lee Tao said as he tidied his clothes. 

Sometime later, Lee Tao headed toward his personal office.

The personal office was located somewhere on the East corridor in the Liu Clan. It was a place picked for him by Liu Ying, and no one was permitted to enter without his permission.

"Xiao Chu, give me some more of those pills." Lee Tao said as he sat on his chair.

"No can do, Lee Tao. You have already exceeded this month's amount of pills."

"Do you want me to crack the necklace again?" 

"Even if you threaten me, I will not hand them over. Those pills are like drugs to you, and if consumed frequently, it will not be good for your body." Xiao Chu refused to give in as she showed a resolute expression.

Lee Tao could only click his tongue in anger when she was extremely stubborn.

"What an ungrateful and useless system…" Lee Tao muttered as he decided to brew some tea in the meantime.

Time slowly passed by, and someone was knocking on the door from outside.

"I have arrived," Zuo Xiaoli's voice resounded.

"Come inside, the door isn't locked."

With that said, Zuo Xiaoli entered the room with a somewhat cautious expression.

Lee Tao chuckled softly when he saw her reaction.

"Oh please… Why are you acting like that, Zuo Xiaoli?" Lee Tao laughed as he pointed at a chair. "If I really want to do something against you, then I doubt you can even defend it." 

Despite his words, Zuo Xiaoli could only nod her head. That was the harsh reality and truth where she could only comply with his orders.

Even now, she was still confused about how he managed to get a hold of her secrets.

Zuo Xiaoli sat down as she stared at Lee Tao. 

"I know I have only managed to capture half of the people in the list, but I should still have enough time left to capture the other half." Zuo Xiaoli said, thinking that Lee Tao had summoned her for this issue.

"You're really taking me for a fool, right?" Lee Tao said as his expression turned serious.

"Don't think I haven't noticed it, but you have been secretly investigating me and my source of information behind the scenes." 

Zuo Xiaoli shuddered briefly for a moment.

However, her expression quickly turned tranquil as she wouldn't fall for his bluff.

After all, she hadn't even placed an order to investigate Lee Tao, so there's no way he could have known about it beforehand.

"Young Master Lee Tao, I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about." Zuo Xiaoli said.

And she continued, "If your source of information is really that good, then you should have known I'm innocent and haven't tried any foul play at all."

Lee Tao nodded his head.

"You haven't tried, but you have thought about it. That in itself is equivalent to betraying me." Lee Tao said as he snapped his finger.

Afterward, Xiao Chu who had been floating behind Zuo Xiaoli injected some of her profound qi.

Zuo Xiaoli felt a slap to her neck as she quickly turned around to see who had attacked her.

However, she couldn't see nor detect any presence other than Lee Tao, who was sitting calmly in front of her.

"What did you do to me?" Zuo Xiaoli asked as she clutched her neck tightly with her hand.

In the meantime, she tried to circulate some of her profound qi to defend herself.

"Save your effort, Zuo Xiaoli." Lee Tao smirked as he stood up.

"I have warned you already, but you didn't take me seriously. What a shame… I really don't want to give you the same treatment as Lin Cai." 

Zuo Xiaoli swallowed some of her saliva nervously.

For some reason, she felt an ominous feeling about the slight fluctuation she received. 

Meanwhile, Lee Tao stepped closer to Zuo Xiaoli as he held her chin.

"Time is running out for me as well, so I don't have the mood to play the stalling game." Lee Tao said as he snapped his finger.

Soon, an adrenaline rush of euphoria erupted in Zuo Xiaoli as she quickly wetted her pants.

Zuo Xiaoli clamped her legs together, hoping to stop herself from squirting out.

"W-What's happening to me?" Zuo Xiaoli said in a panicked tone as she felt her body warming up.

Lee Tao snickered coldly as he watched her turn extremely aroused.

Although her willpower was decent, with Xiao Chu's unique injection, there is simply no way of resisting it unless Lee Tao or Xiao Chu stop it.

However, the chance of Lee Tao stopping his action now is naught.

"Didn't I say it before, Zuo Xiaoli… I'm never a good guy." Lee Tao whispered softly as he touched her neck.

"Ahnn~"

Zuo Xiaoli moaned upon the slightest touch from Lee Tao. 

"P-Please forgive me, Lee Tao." Zuo Xiaoli muttered in difficulty.

Alas, Lee Tao was done being nice to her. 

She had her chance to still live with dignity intact, but she had given it up.

"N-No, please…." Zuo Xiaoli continued to moan like some horny bitch.

"Keep moaning, Zuo Xiaoli." Lee Tao sneered coldly as he touched her ears, neck, arms, and hands.

He was touching her everywhere except for her private parts, causing her to feel an inexplicable feeling of frustration.

On one hand, she does not want Lee Tao to touch her inappropriately, but on the other hand, she was craving for his touch.

This was the so-called Devil's Touch.
