Chapter 459: Used and Discarded
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Roughly the time it takes to drink a cup of tea later, Huangfu Lingyao slowly released Liu s.h.i.+mei. His body settled down, and his expression and gaze, which had been fierce like a big bad wolf, returned to the innocent and soft look of a little white rabbit.
“Wife, would you like some water?”
He, a husky full of sweetness, was extremely attentive. It really confirmed the saying: as long as a man’s hunger is satisfied, he can lift his woman up to the sky!
Although he hadn’t eaten his fill, since having a meal wasn’t possible, a kiss and a hug could temporarily quench his thirst, better than nothing.
His heart was somewhat comforted, but he still cursed fiercely under his breath, “That d.a.m.ned Huangfu He. It must be him, to buy time, pleading with Imperial Emperor, forcing me to marry after him! Hmph, a 21-year-old man who hasn’t married yet. If he never marries a Crown Princess, it seems me and my wife can’t marry either!”
A normal Crown Prince would have been engaged at 15 or 16, but this Huangfu He insisted on an unconventional path.
Did he choose Liu s.h.i.+mei because he was waiting for her to grow up, to utilize her relations.h.i.+p with Liu Fuyun?
What they had just done was a bit excessive, and her mouth felt dry. Liu s.h.i.+mei was indeed a bit thirsty. She drank a gla.s.s of water, intending to say something to regain her dignity as the head of her family. However, when she opened her mouth, it seemed like she couldn’t say anything at all.
Should she forbid him from touching her next time?
There was no need for that.
Although initially, she hadn’t thought of developing any real intimate relations.h.i.+p with him, considering they would have to marry each other sooner or later, having some sweetness in their daily life was better than living in a cold and distant marriage, right?
Her thoughts had indeed changed.
Huangfu Lingyao did not know what she was thinking. Seeing that she remained silent, hanging her head there, he was afraid he had revealed something suspicious. He felt a bit anxious.
She was still sitting on his lap, his hand on her slender waist. He felt he couldn’t let his thoughts wander anymore, or he might lose control later!
“Wife…” He opened his mouth, wanting to say something to ease the atmosphere.
Anyway, he was a fool, right? No matter what he said, it wouldn’t be too much. Having a thick skin was normal, wasn’t it?
But before he could say anything, a knock on the door interrupted them. Shu Jun’s voice came through, “Master, can I come in now?”
Huangfu Lingyao,”…”
He ground his teeth fiercely!
Looking up to the sky, he sighed deeply. ‘Why does my wife have to be so ambitious? It affects our intimate moments!’
After a moment of contemplation, Liu s.h.i.+mei’s rationality slowly returned. She was about to say ‘Come in’, but then realized she was still in Huangfu Lingyao’s embrace. Meeting her disciple in this position, she probably would never be able to face Shu Jun again in her lifetime.
She quickly stood up and said, “It’s fine, you can come in.”
Turning back, she waved at the silly puppy and whispered, “Lingyao, my disciple needs me. You can entertain yourself for a while.”
Huangfu Lingyao agreed obediently on the surface, stood up, and sat on the chair below the window, playing with the potted bamboo on the table.
He plucked a row of leaves, instantly ruining the once aesthetically pleasing potted plant!
During their intimate moments, she treated him like an adult, but after enjoying themselves, she treated him like a naive child!
He thought to himself, ‘Used and discarded, is this what they call heartless detachment?’
Meanwhile, Shu Jun had already entered.
The young man was slender, slightly thin, lacking the imposing aura of an adult. Always wearing an expressionless, mature demeanor, he held several books and placed them in front of Liu s.h.i.+mei.
He said in a composed manner, “Master, these are profiles of some talented women from my family. Their ages range from 6 to 40 years old. I have organized all the information in these days. Once you decide who is suitable, I will bring her here.”
Liu s.h.i.+mei nodded and said, “Hmm, let me take a look first.”
As she looked through the booklet, she found it somewhat unbelievable.. “Shu Jun, is your family really that large? So many of them?”
