Chapter 678: Serving Tea (1/2)
Zhu Junyang couldn’t hold back anymore. He took action and immediately experienced an unprecedented feeling…the incomparable feeling rushed from the tip of his toes to the top of his head.
“Groan…” Zhu Junyang stopped all of his movements when he heard a suppressed cry of pain.
“Does it hurt?” Zhu Junyang lowered his head and kissed his wife’s slightly creased brows.
Yu Xiaocao bit her lips, and with a flushed face, she nodded. But, then, she shook her head. It was inevitable for women to experience this, so things that should come would eventually arrive. For him, this pain was nothing.
The red candles were brightly lit outside the curtains of the bed, and the silhouette of the couple on the bed could be seen. There was a beautiful scenery in the room… Wutong and Meixiang, who were on duty outside the room, heard the faint sound of movement coming from the room. They looked at each other with blushing faces, and then swiftly shifted their gazes.
In the dark blue sky, the vast Milky Way was shining with brilliance. Altair and Vega stood on opposite sides of the Milky Way, looking at each other from afar. Like scattered pieces of jade, the flying stars looked gorgeous. In the yard, the breeze swayed the flower branches, sending wisps of fragrance over. The gentle moonlight shone on the ground…
The wolf, who had devoured the little lamb, personally helped the exhausted lass clean up. Then he stuffed her into the quilt and hugged her tightly. A certain wolf felt restless with the soft, petite person in his arms. However, considering that it was the lamb’s first time, he suppressed the little flame in his heart.
“So good!” Zhu Junyang sighed, and then gently brushed the hair on the lass’s face behind her ear. He softly whispered, “Knowing that you will belong to me completely in the future feels even better than eating hotpot around the stove in the freezing cold weather and eating a slushie during the hottest days of the summer.
Yu Xiaocao, whose face was still hot, couldn’t help but said, “You also have to remember that you belong to me completely! You’re not allowed to use your charming phoenix eyes to flirt with young maidens! You’re not allowed to attract little beauties with your sexy voice! When you’re outside, you can’t smile like right now! Your gentleness is exclusive to me only!!”
“Understood! I, your husband, dare not disobey Wife’s orders! This prince is taken now, so the cold-faced prince’s smile, gentleness, and love…can only belong exclusively to Princess Consort Xu! I guarantee!” Hearing a trace of uncertainty within the lass’s voice, Zhu Junyang hugged her with an aching heart. It turned out that this young lass, who had always been full of confidence, also felt uncertain about the future!
“That’s more like it! I want to sleep——sing a lullaby for me!” Yu Xiaocao’s dimples reflected her happiness. She hugged her husband’s strong waist and rested her face on his chest.
“Sing?” Zhu Junyang was stumped by this request. He struggled for a long time, but he still couldn’t think of a suitable song. When he lowered his head to look at the lass in his arms with an apologetic expression, he found that she had unknowingly fallen asleep.
Her breathing sounded very even and relaxed. With thick and curled eyelashes, she had a small face that was red like an apple, and a sweet smile on her face. When the lass was asleep, she was as obedient as a kitten!
Xiaocao slept very comfortably. The weather in mid-March was still chilly at night. But, since she was hugging a big, warm brazier, her limbs weren’t cold anymore. After a long stretch, she noticed that her body felt sore and tired. When she recalled that she had evolved from a young maiden to a young matron last night, she felt a sense of sweetness within her bashfulness. She turned her head and saw that she was the only one left on the bed. She touched the other side of the bed and noticed that there was no warmth on it anymore. That fellow Zhu Junyang had left without her knowledge. After making an inquiry, she found that Zhu Junyang had gone to train at the training arena. Didn’t they say that men exhausted more energy in the matter between men and women? Why did her whole body feel as if it was scattered, yet that fellow was still filled with energy and completely fine?
She suddenly froze, and then asked the people outside the room, “What time is it now?”
“In reply to Your Highness, it’s a quarter past seven.” Pipa voiced a reply. Yu Xiaocao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It was just slightly past seven in the morning ah. Good, she wasn’t too late. Today, they were going back to Prince Jing’s Estate to offer tea to her father-in-law and mother-in-law. She was really afraid that she would sleep until the late morning——that would be so embarrassing!
“Is the princess consort awake?” Zhu Junyang’s voice sounded from outside the door. Then the sounds of the maidservants’ greetings could be heard. Pipa replied, “In reply to Your Highness, the princess consort is awake!”
The sound of the door being pushed opened was accompanied by the sound of footsteps. After walking around the glazed, red sandalwood four-season folding screen, Zhu Junyang’s figure appeared in the inner room. Yu Xiaocao, who was still in bed, only wore a thin piece of clothing. She didn’t know how to face the man who now had a physical relationship with her. Thus, she lay straight on the bed, pulled the quilt up to her nose, and pretended to sleep with her eyes closed.
Zhu Junyang chuckled and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the lass’s slightly fluttering eyelashes. Her breathing was also somewhat rushed. How could he not know that the lass was pretending to be asleep? He pinched her nose and pulled the quilt down a bit. Then he said with a voice so gentle that it could drip out water, “It’s time to wake up, you lazy cat. The sun is about to reach your butt!”
