Chapter 135 Don't Get So Close

Yuan Wanru resolutely resisted his temptation: "No, my mouth is still a little uncomfortable now."

As she spoke, she pouted her lips and motioned for him to take a closer look.

Although so much time has passed, her lips are still a little swollen, like plump peaches, sweet and attractive.

She tilted her head slightly, staring at him with a pair of distinct black and white eyes. Her fair face was lightly blushed, pitiful and lovely, making him want to kiss her again and taste her beauty once more.

His Adam's apple rolled, and finally, he looked away and stopped looking at her.

"Okay, I'll go out for a while."

He spoke in a hoarse voice and hurriedly left the room.

All desires have to be suppressed.

It’s just that she was too delicate and he didn’t use much force.

After sending him out, Yuan Wanru took a hot bath with peace of mind, then went to bed to wait for him.

I don't know where he went. When he came back, he was covered in some moisture, which was icy cold. Yuan Wanru asked in surprise: "Did you take a shower?"

"Um."

This is not Mian Yue Pavilion. Liu Yan and the others forgot to prepare two quilts. When he lifted the quilt and lay down on him, Yuan Wanru realized that they were now sharing one quilt.

Lu Jiangnian gladly accepted this arrangement. His hands rested on her waist with familiarity, as if he had slept with her like this many times.

Obviously, this was the first time they were so close.

Yuan Wanru shrank herself and lay on her side with her back to him, but his presence was too strong.

She could clearly feel the rise and fall of his chest through the soft and thin pajamas. His solid muscles were hard against her. A heat emanated from him, and she felt that the bed was too hot.

She couldn't help wanting to move a little further in, but he held her waist tightly: "The quilt is not big, let's sleep closer, otherwise we will be cold at night."

Yuan Wanru whispered, "There are other quilts in the carriage. Why don't I ask Liu Yan to bring another one."

She used her own quilt throughout the trip.

The sanitary conditions of inns in this era were probably not very good. If she had a choice, she would of course be willing to use her own things.

I brought several quilts, so I had some extra.

Lu Jiangnian's voice came from above her head: "It's late at night and cold outside. Are you willing to let your maid move the quilt in the cold wind?"

When they were away from home, Lu Jiangnian shared a room with her, so he didn't ask Liu Yan and Liu Zhi to keep watch at night. They might have already rested by now.

After thinking about it, Yuan Wanru finally gave up this plan.

"Then don't get so close. It's too hot."

However, Lu Jiangnian seemed to be against her and pressed his body more and more against her back, fitting her perfectly. Yuan Wanru really had nowhere to hide.

"I don't feel hot, it's warm and soft, I won't let go even if I die of heat."

Although we can't kiss, it's still great to be able to hold someone in my arms like this for a night.

Yuan Wanru grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Aren't you afraid of being choked up?"

The pajamas were only a thin layer, and they were so close that any changes could not be hidden.

She really didn't understand whether he was in pain and happy at the same time.

Lu Jiangnian smiled particularly comfortably, his low laughter echoed among the crowded beds, and Yuan Wanru felt her whole body was hot.

"What are you laughing at?"

He lifted her hair and put it to the tip of his nose to sniff: "Don't worry, when it really comes in handy, it will definitely be full of vigor and fighting spirit, and will not let you down."

Yuan Wanru understood his hint.

She said bitterly, "Just wait."

As she said this, she closed her eyes, not wanting to pay any attention to this scoundrel.

However, his hot breath behind her ears was really disturbing, and...

"Can you please control..."

The strange feeling below her waist really made her feel very uncomfortable, but she was not made of wood.

Lu Jiangnian sighed and said helplessly: "My lady, please don't talk. I'm reciting the military strategy."

He didn't want to either, but matters of lust were sometimes beyond the control of willpower.

Especially, the beloved woman was in his arms, and they were very close to each other, but he was not a saint.

The fact that he could hold her quietly like this showed his amazing self-control.

Yuan Wanru was helpless and turned over to look at him. In the dark night, his eyes were very bright, like the shining stars in the night sky. The starry sky was vast, but in his eyes, there was only her.

"What should I do? I can't sleep at this rate."

When she said this, her lips curled up slightly. Her cute and innocent look made his heart soften. As long as he could stay with her quietly like this, he would be satisfied.

"If you can't sleep, talk to me."

Without waiting for her to answer, he asked, "Has it been many years since you last came back to Nanjiang County? Do your family members still remember you?"

Seven years ago, after Yuan Chuan died, Yuan Wanru, as the only child, accompanied the coffin back to his hometown.

To be honest, the original owner was not familiar with the people in his hometown at all. He only stayed there for three months before being taken back to the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

As far as I can remember, my grandmother and second uncle were not cunning people. Considering that Yuan Wanru grew up in the capital, they did not dare to keep her around for fear of hindering the original owner's future.

Over the years, although the original owner had been sending money back to her hometown, and people from her hometown would occasionally bring her some local specialties, but since that meeting, the original owner and the people from her hometown have never seen each other again.

“I don’t remember anything.”

She felt a little depressed when she said this.

In fact, the reason why she came back this time was that she wanted to tell the Yuanchuan couple about the absence of their original owner's soul in front of their tomb.

By the way, put a piece of the original owner's clothing in the tomb, so that the family can be reunited.

Wang Min treated her very well. The clothes she wore now were all newly tailored. She had basically kept all the original owner's clothes.

"It doesn't matter if you don't remember."

"Speaking of which, I wonder if you still remember what your father looks like. You don't look much like him. You probably look more like your mother."

Yuan Wanru recalled Yuan Chuan's appearance. He was handsome and generous, with a standard square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes.

And she is pretty and lovely.

However, the original owner could no longer remember what her mother looked like. When she was three or four years old, she vaguely saw a slim and graceful person leaning against the door watching her playing in the yard.

"Maybe."

Lu Jiangnian had experienced many battles and was well aware of the imperial court's territory. He changed the subject and talked to her about the customs and people of Nanjiang County.

Yuan Wanru liked listening to these and was fascinated by them for a while.

Before she knew it, she felt sleepy and fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Jiangnian heard her gradually steady and long breathing, adjusted her sleeping position, lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead: "Sweet dreams."

Being able to coax her to sleep, the sense of accomplishment he felt was no less than winning a battle.

No words were spoken that night.

The next day, at daybreak, Lu Jiangnian got up early and walked out of the room. He saw Xuan Ying standing not far away.

Xuanying took a few steps forward and whispered a few words, and Lu Jiangnian's expression changed slightly.

"All dead?"
