Upon hearing this, Shen Yunting let out a cold laugh.

"Does he really deserve it?"

"Whether it's worth it or not isn't up to us to decide." Qu Jingyun couldn't help but sigh and buried her body in Shen Yunting's arms.

He changed the subject, saying, "It's getting late, carry me to bed."

Shen Yunting's body stiffened abruptly, and he bent down to gently lift Qu Jingyun up in his arms.

The two embraced tightly on the bed, as if trying to hide each other in their hearts.

Shen Yunting's gaze lingered on Qu Jingyun's red lips for a long time.

A sudden swallowing sound came from the quiet room.

Qu Jingyun couldn't help but find it amusing. Meeting the other person's honest gaze, she kissed him without the slightest hesitation.

"Mother, may I come in?"

Shen Yue's sudden voice startled the two who were deeply in love.

Qu Jingyun hurriedly pushed away Shen Yunting in front of her and looked over in a panic.

Shen Yunting seemed oblivious, a smile playing on his lips as he shamelessly took hers.

"Let go, let go," Qu Jingyun managed to utter these words with difficulty.

But he held her waist firmly and forced her to look up into his eyes.

She glared at him angrily.

"Mother? Are you asleep?" Shen Yue asked again.

Having received no response for a long time, she turned to leave, still puzzled.

But then he heard Qu Jingyun's muffled groan from behind.

She stopped in her tracks and asked, "Mother, what's wrong?"

Her tone became somewhat urgent.

Hearing this, Qu Jingyun, in a moment of panic, opened her mouth and bit down hard.

A man inside the room gasped in shock.

"You're really heartless towards your husband!" Shen Yunting whispered in Qu Jingyun's ear.

Qu Jingyun glared at him but didn't say anything more.

She called out loudly, "Moon, what do you need from your mother?"

Shen Yue frowned, her eyes filled with doubt.

Why did she think she heard a man's voice just now?

Did she mishear?

Shen Yue's face was pale, and she spoke again, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask Mother if Yue'er can sleep with you tonight."

"Huh?" Qu Jingyun was taken aback, her breathing gradually becoming heavy.

She felt Shen Yunting's hands roaming erratically over her body.

His breath brushed against her ear, carrying warmth.

She glared at him irritably, then said, "I'm afraid it won't work tonight. I'm even feeling a bit unwell."

"Is Mother feeling unwell? Has she seen a doctor?" Shen Yue asked impatiently.

Her tone was full of concern, and Qu Jingyun felt a pang of guilt as she listened.

He hurriedly explained, "I just caught a cold, it's nothing serious, I'll be fine after a nap."

"May I go in and see my mother?" Shen Yue asked hesitantly.

But Qu Jingyun refused again: "I'm tired. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

A deep disappointment flashed across Shen Yue's face, but in the end she said nothing.

She just sighed and said, "Then I'll be going now. Mother, take good care of yourself, and remember to tell me if anything happens."

After saying this, Shen Yue turned and left.

But as she walked, her worries grew stronger.

Something just doesn't feel right!

Qu Jingyun's tone just now was really unnatural, unlike her usual self.

Could it be?

Shen Yue seemed to have thought of something, and turned to walk back.

She had to go back and check on Qu Jingyun's safety!

Could she have encountered some kind of danger?

But as soon as they arrived at the tent entrance, they heard intimate sounds coming from inside.

Although she was inexperienced in such matters, she was not entirely ignorant of them.

Not to mention that he had also witnessed the Fifth Prince twice, so he naturally knew some of the details.

Her face turned deathly pale instantly. Could it be that someone had done something indecent to Qu Jingyun?

Realizing this, Shen Yue's gaze fell on the long stick not far away, and she was about to raise it and rush in.

This matter concerns Qu Jingyun's reputation, and she cannot allow it to escalate.

Even if it costs her her life, she will absolutely protect Qu Jingyun's safety.

"What are you doing?" Qu Jingyun said irritably, slapping Shen Yunting's hand hard.

He whispered, "What if Yue'er sees this?"

"So what if we saw it? We're her parents, it's not normal for us to do this kind of thing." Shen Yunting said dismissively.

He pinched Qu Jingyun's chin, forcing her to look at him.

"What you need to do now is cooperate with me and not think about anything else."

After saying this, he lowered his head and covered Qu Jingyun's red lips with his own, sucking them greedily.

Qu Jingyun did not refuse again. She put her hands on his neck, slightly parted her lips, and felt the passion he gave her.

As the temperature inside the room continued to rise, Qu Jingyun's consciousness gradually faded.

But then she felt the person on top of her suddenly stop moving and open their eyes in displeasure.

He called out urgently, "What are you doing?"

He glanced up and saw that Shen Yunting's gaze was fixed on the distance, and his expression grew increasingly impatient.

She reached out and gently stroked his cheek, then slowly moved her hand down and recklessly lit a fire.

Normally, the other party would have pounced on him long ago.

He took her hand and whispered, "Wait a moment."

Qu Jingyun was puzzled and was about to ask something.

He then met Shen Yunting's helpless expression.

“There’s someone outside the tent, who seems to be trying to break in. I think it’s Yue’er.”

"What?" Qu Jingyun was so surprised that she almost sat up abruptly.

He lowered his voice and asked, "What should we do? What is she trying to do?"

"I suspect she felt you were in some danger and wanted to rush in to protect you." Shen Yunting's expression turned somewhat speechless.

However, I am mostly pleased with Shen Yue's choice.

She was smart enough and willing to step forward to save her mother.

This is a good thing!

"So what are we going to do now? Is this all your fault?" Qu Jingyun said irritably, reaching out to push the person away.

"Now it's up to you to persuade him to leave, otherwise it would be quite embarrassing if he barged in and saw us like this," Shen Yunting teased.

The moonlight shone directly on their clothes, which had been torn apart, illuminating the scene before them clearly.

If Shen Yue were to witness this, it would indeed be quite awkward.

Helpless, Qu Jingyun could only cough lightly.

He called out loudly, "Who's outside the door?"

Shen Yue was startled by the commotion and covered her mouth without saying anything.

Then Qu Jingyun asked, "Is that Yue'er? Why aren't you in your room resting? What are you doing outside?"

Shen Yue was startled, her mind becoming increasingly conflicted.

Is she overthinking it?

He replied in a muffled voice, "It's me. I want to see my mother."

"I said it's inconvenient," Qu Jingyun repeated.

But this time, Shen Yue was unusually insistent, saying directly, "I will not leave if I don't see my mother tonight."
