In her sleep, Yu Mingshu was suddenly pierced through the chest by a sharp sword. Through the bloodshot eyes, she could clearly see the face in the darkness.

"Owner."

A calm and magnetic masculine voice sounded in her ears. Yu Mingshu sat up suddenly and opened his eyes wide.

Just a second ago, she had been stabbed to death by the male in front of her. And now, he was kneeling in front of her bed, his nearly perfect body covered with bleeding whip marks.

Yu Mingshu stroked his chest with his hand. Everything was fine. It was just a dream.

When she looked up at Cangran again, she swung her arm without thinking and slapped him hard in the face.

“Pah.”

Suddenly, crisp applause sounded in the quiet room.

Even in her dreams, she could not tolerate Cangran's betrayal.

Things became like this today because he provoked me!

After being slapped for no reason, Cangran still knelt there straight, enduring her unreasonable anger.

"I'm sorry to wake you."

After getting married, Yu Mingshu became moody and probably didn't want to know that it was she who was calling his name in fear in her dream.

Yu Mingshu let Cangran continue to kneel. After a long while, she said, "Lift your head."

Cangran did as he was told.

Yu Mingshu reached out and pinched his chin, then leaned over to look him in the eye.

Although Cangran is a male, he is a prince and is extremely handsome.

If he hadn't been such a jerk, hadn't insisted on framing her and insisting on being her legal husband, she wouldn't have treated him like this.

"Do you hate me?"

Yu Mingshu asked him, his fingers lightly running across a whip mark on Cangran's chest.

The soft fingertips pressed on the scar, feeling the rise and fall of the male chest.

The dream had an impact on her, making her very curious about Cangran's attitude towards her.

Cangran's strong muscles trembled slightly under her fingertips. He finally closed his eyes and answered devoutly, "I don't hate you."

Yu Mingshu laughed coldly, "You're lying."

Since she didn't believe it, Cangran stopped explaining.

He just stood in front of her with his back straight, maintaining the standard kneeling position she required.

The more he acted like this, the more angry Yu Mingshu became.

Before, he had never given her any explanation for what he had done.

Yu Mingshu grabbed the whip at hand and lashed out hard.

Cang Ran groaned, blood flowing down his shoulder blade, but he still did not show any dissatisfaction.

"Get out." Yu Mingshu threw the whip angrily.

Cangran then stood up silently, picked up the whip and prepared to put it beside her bed.

But Yu Mingshu grabbed the whip and caught him back with a stumble.

So, hasn't she vented enough?

Cang Ran sighed in his heart, released the hand holding the whip, and knelt down in front of her again.

"Master, please continue the punishment."

Yu Mingshu threw the whip farther and gritted his teeth at Cangran in hatred.

"Seventh Prince, how long will you continue to act so lowly in front of me? We've had physical contact before. How could I not know how unbridled you were back then?"

Yu Mingshu even felt that the Cangran in his dream who stabbed him with hatred was the real him.

"In front of you, I should be the way I am now."

Cangran did not deny Yu Mingshu's accusation, but he did it all willingly.

"Get out! Get out of here right now!"

Cangran's words completely ignited the anger in Yu Mingshu's heart.

Even if he was a prince, after doing such a thing to herself, did he really think that a few whips from her would wipe the slate clean and pretend nothing had happened?

She doesn't want this compensation!

The sound of the door closing was heard. Yu Mingshu walked to the window impatiently and pulled open the curtains to let the bright moonlight into the room, but it was unable to dispel the gloom in his heart.

She is one of the eight regional governors of the empire. Although she is not a flying race, the queen still intends for her to marry a prince as her legal husband.

She didn't want to get involved in the royal struggle, but was framed by the seventh prince Cangran and lost face at the royal dinner, so she had no choice but to do as he wished.

Things have come to this point, she insisted on marrying eight beastly husbands on the same day, and the Queen actually agreed.

As a result, this little thing is still on the hot search list of Star Network until today.

Perhaps it was because her behavior was too domineering that she had such a dream.

In the dream, not only Cangran, but other beastly husbands also hated her to the core and watched her death coldly.

Perhaps it's time for her to turn this situation around.

When Chongshiwu came in, Yu Mingshu was still staring out the window in a daze.

The crimson silk nightgown had a wonderful drape, outlining her graceful curves.

"Master." Chong Shiwu collected his thoughts and knelt respectfully.

He suddenly changed from being the master's secret guard to her concubine, and could even stand beside her openly. This was something he had never dared to imagine.

Therefore, protecting her will always be my only mission.

"Ten..." Yu Mingshu was about to call him Fifteen, but then he remembered that he had changed his name before marriage, so he changed his words and called him, "Chongyue."

"Master, just call me Fifteen." Chong Yue replied in a low voice, with a hint of earnestness in his tone.

He didn't want her to change her words because the name "Fifteen" had a unique intimacy to him.

Yu Mingshu was amused by him, and his eyes finally brightened up at that moment.

"My concubine's name can't just be a code name. If I hadn't kept you by my side as a secret guard, you would have had your own name long ago."
