After a lifetime of busyness, without even having time to fall in love, Qu Qingxi transmigrated due to an accident, becoming a princess consort tasked with bringing good fortune. On her wedding nig...
"That's it?" Qu Qingxi frowned. What was He Liufeng thinking? She owed him a favor, which he could use for other things. There was no need to use it on such a trivial matter.
"Okay, that's settled." He Liufeng nodded. "Is that alright?"
"Okay." Qu Qingxi had no reason to refuse; this was an easy task for her.
Hearing Qu Qingxi agree, He Liufeng smiled and then laboriously moved over to reveal the spot next to him. "The soft couch isn't comfortable, you can sleep here."
"Don't worry, I'm injured and can't do anything," He Liufeng quickly explained, afraid that Qu Qingxi wouldn't agree.
"Okay, I promise. Don't move anymore, or the wound will reopen." Qu Qingxi nodded. Anyway, nothing would really happen, so there was no need to worry too much.
Upon hearing this, He Liufeng's smile widened.
Qu Qingxi took a quilt, took off her outer clothes, and lay down next to He Liufeng in her inner garment, covering herself with the quilt.
"Close your eyes and rest. If you feel unbearable pain in your wound, wake me up immediately," Qu Qingxi said, turning her head slightly to look at He Liufeng, who was staring at her.
As she got closer, Qu Qingxi could almost see He Liufeng's individual eyelashes, thick and long, almost like they were fake. His nose was high and straight, and Qu Qingxi was quite envious of him.
Moreover, his face had almost no pores, and his skin was fair but not effeminate. At this moment, he was staring at her with a smile in his eyes. Qu Qingxi blinked, and it was as if a stone had been thrown into the lake of her heart, stirring up ripples that would not stop for a long time.
"Alright, let's rest." Qu Qingxi turned her head and looked at the ceiling.
"Yes, Your Highness," He Liufeng replied.
Qu Qingxi didn't mind He Liufeng's way of addressing her, closed her eyes, and pretended to be sleepy.
Seeing Qu Qingxi close her eyes, He Liufeng's smile deepened. He realized that Qu Qingxi was still soft-hearted towards him, and that the more shameless he was, the closer he would get to Qu Qingxi.
Thinking this, He Liufeng moved closer to Qu Qingxi and quickly spoke before Qu Qingxi could say anything, "It wasn't comfortable lying like that just now, so I'm changing positions. You don't mind, do you?"
Qu Qingxi: "..."
Seeing that Qu Qingxi did not react, He Liufeng closed his eyes with relief.
Qu Qingxi's painkillers did have some effect, but they contained some sleeping pills, and He Liufeng felt sleepy and his eyelids felt a little heavy.
But looking at the person lying next to me, I felt unusually at ease and secure.
In the middle of the night, He Liufeng was awakened by pain. The painkiller had worn off, and he felt his wound throbbing with pain, as if there were insects inside, constantly gnawing at his body. A lamp was lit in the room, making it slightly dim.
He Liufeng was in pain from his wound and couldn't sleep, so he turned to look at Qu Qingxi beside him.
Qu Qingxi was probably tired and was sleeping soundly, her breathing was even, her face was fair and her red lips were slightly upturned. He Liufeng's heart stirred, and he turned over to lie on his side, getting closer to Qu Qingxi.
The closer they were, the more alluring the fragrance emanating from Qu Qingxi became. He Liufeng reached out and pulled Qu Qingxi into his arms.
He Liufeng's movements were a bit too sudden. Qu Qingxi opened her eyes groggily and saw He Liufeng very close to her. She was stunned for a moment, her eyes still filled with sleepiness and confusion.
Seeing this, He Liufeng quickly spoke in a low voice, "My wound hurts a bit. Being close to you will make me feel better. Can I hug you?"
Seeing He Liufeng's pitiful appearance, and considering that he was injured because of her, and that the two of them were sharing two blankets, Qu Qingxi closed her eyes, indicating her consent.
Seeing that Qu Qingxi did not refuse, He Liufeng was overjoyed, but he dared not make any other moves, lest he anger her and lose everything.
He wasn't lying. Holding Qu Qingxi's soft, fragrant body, he really felt that his wounds didn't hurt so much anymore. He gently rested his head on Qu Qingxi's neck, inhaling her fragrance.
As sunlight streamed into the room, Qu Qingxi felt a slight heaviness in her chest. She slowly opened her eyes and discovered that He Liufeng's arm was across her chest.
He turned to look at He Liufeng, whose brows were furrowed and eyes were closed, looking like he was fast asleep.
Qu Qingxi then realized that her blanket had fallen to the ground at some point, and she was now covered with He Liufeng's blanket, the two of them sharing the same blanket.
Qu Qingxi moved slightly, trying to remove He Liufeng's hand from her chest, but to her surprise, He Liufeng hugged her even tighter.
Then, as if remembering something, He Liufeng opened his eyes groggily and saw Qu Qingxi being held in his arms, looking at him with open eyes.
"Your blanket fell to the floor last night, and it was inconvenient for me to pick it up, so I pulled my blanket over to cover you. Later, I got a little cold, so I got a bit too close to you," He Liufeng explained innocently.
"Okay, then put your arm back first." Qu Qingxi nodded, reluctantly accepting this absurd excuse. She was a very proper sleeper and would never move around. The blanket on her body was probably knocked to the floor by He Liufeng.
Qu Qingxi guessed correctly. Last night, He Liufeng was indeed very dissatisfied with the two of them sharing two blankets. So, while Qu Qingxi was fast asleep, he gently moved Qu Qingxi's blanket to the ground and then naturally pulled his own blanket over. The couple only needed one blanket.
"Okay." He Liufeng nodded, then endured the pain and slowly pulled his arm back. Qu Qingxi then realized that the arm lying across her chest was his right arm. The arm pulled on the wound on his shoulder, and He Liufeng's face was full of pain.
Qu Qingxi had no idea how He Liufeng had managed to drape his injured arm over her last night.
After getting dressed, Qu Qingxi pulled back He Liufeng's blanket and looked at the wound. There was faint blood on the wound, which must have been caused by his arm moving all night.
"Don't move around too much when you sleep from now on," Qu Qingxi said helplessly.
"Yes, Your Highness." He Liufeng had an unruly smile on his face.
Qu Qingxi paused, wondering why He Liufeng had transformed overnight from a gentle and refined person into a scoundrel.
Taking out gauze and medicine, Qu Qingxi carefully unwrapped the gauze from He Liufeng's wound, gently wiped away the bloodstains, sprinkled some homemade anti-inflammatory medicine on it, and then used clean gauze to re-wrap He Liufeng's injured shoulder.
Qu Qingxi moved seriously and looked focused. He Liufeng only lowered his head slightly throughout, watching her movements, and the smile on his face never disappeared.
Qu Qingxi couldn't stand his gaze, so she said she had something to do and left.
He Liufeng stared at Qu Qingxi's disappearing figure, muttering to himself, "No matter who you are, you are now my queen."
