"Of course! We're husband and wife," Gan Qiongying affirmed without hesitation.

Gold and silver treasures have come to my home; I am one with the God of Wealth!

I love wealth and wealth loves me; the God of Wealth comes to my home!

Li Hua's expression suddenly relaxed.

Gan Qiongying had said so much before, racking her brains, patching things up, mixing truth and falsehood, but Li Hua remained unmoved.

But this acknowledgment that they were family gave Li Hua's restless emotions and his sense of inferiority a place to land, and also gave him boundless courage.

Yes, they are a married couple.

They are at least husband and wife, bound together by a marriage certificate.

As long as they don't divorce, no one can separate them.

Therefore, Li Hua slowly revealed a smile, finally stopping her from dwelling on those things that couldn't be solved for the time being, and staying true to her inner thoughts.

Li Hua raised his hands to support Gan Qiongying's arms, pulled her up, then grabbed her arms and hooked her waist, making Gan Qiongying sit directly on his lap facing him.

Caught off guard, Gan Qiongying felt extremely uncomfortable after sitting down, muttering under her breath, "You can't put your legs down like that, can you?"

Li Hua's arms were indeed wrapped around her waist. Although his expression didn't change, the temperature in his eyes was gradually rising.

She whispered, "It's alright, you're not heavy."

Gan Qiongying is actually quite heavy. Although she has never weighed herself, she has eaten a lot at every meal. Compared to Princess Duanrong's slender figure after she transmigrated, Gan Qiongying is now much rounder.

Li Hua hugged Gan Qiongying and slowly tightened his arms, bringing Gan Qiongying closer to him. Gan Qiongying's hands had nowhere to go, and finally landed on Li Hua's shoulders. She stared at him with wide eyes, only to be met with the tenderness in his eyes.

Gan Qiongying suddenly felt a little dizzy and even wondered if she was getting motion sickness from the un-shock-absorbing carriage.

They had no idea why things had escalated from what they were a moment ago to this point.

What exactly did she say that hit the nail on the head of the God of Wealth's head, making him feel relieved?

"I'd better get off, I'm afraid you'll hurt yourself sitting here..."

Li Hua suddenly chuckled softly, looked up at Gan Qiongying and asked, "Do you think I'm made of tofu?"

Even though he was physically disabled, he was still a man over seven feet tall.

His eyes were already beautiful, and he looked exactly like the male protagonist of this book, so naturally, his features were top-notch.

The outline of her eyes was slightly altered by the human skin mask, but they were still bright and clear, like autumn water.

When someone looks at another person with such tender affection, although their face remains unchanged, their eyes are like a pair of whirlpools, almost capable of drawing the person in.

Gan Qiongying's breath hitched for a moment, her thoughts briefly scattered by the ripples in Li Hua's eyes. She stared at him until he pulled her into a tight embrace, until her neck rested on Li Hua's shoulder, before she came back to her senses.

Continuing to think about that question... Of course, I think the God of Wealth is made of real gold, but the problem is that gold is very soft; if you bite it, you'll leave a tooth mark.

Thinking this, she reached out and touched Li Hua's leg, his slightly twisted left leg. Gan Qiongying pressed her face against Li Hua's neck and whispered, "Are you really alright?"

Li Hua buried her head in Gan Qiongying's shoulder, slightly hunched her back, and hummed in agreement.

Gan Qiongying did not move again.

The carriage continued forward, the two of them embracing tightly, their bodies pressed together, neither of them speaking a word.

Li Hua didn't know what else to say, and Gan Qiongying didn't dare to say anything at all.

She couldn't figure out when the God of Wealth was in a good mood or when he was in a bad mood, and she didn't know what she did to upset him and make him suddenly angry and run away.

At that moment, it inexplicably connected with his lungs again, he could breathe smoothly, and suddenly he felt better.

But none of that matters, as long as the God of Wealth is well.

As for the God of Wealth hugging her like a pillow, his arms tightening around her, Gan Qiongying was very happy to oblige.

Hug her as much as you want, as long as you go home with her.

They held each other like that for a long time, with Lihua keeping her head down, enjoying the fullness in her arms.

His habit of feeling incredibly comfortable whenever he had close contact with someone was greatly satisfied, and the despicable and shameless pleasure spread throughout his body without Gan Qiongying's knowledge.

Li Hua restrained himself from making any further unnecessary movements.

Even if he can control his behavior, some instinctive physical reactions are difficult to control.

Before Gan Qiongying could even react, Li Hua suddenly loosened his grip on her waist, shifted her position towards her knees, away from her thighs and that dangerous area, and then continued to hold her tightly without saying a word.

When Gan Qiongying was suddenly moved, she thought Li Hua's leg had gone numb, and immediately struggled to get down.

"Are you alright now? Are your legs numb? I'm quite heavy, aren't I? Your legs can't bear weight for long, didn't the imperial physician already say that? Put me down."

The key point is that their posture... shouldn't be an adult's posture, you only hold a child like that, right?

Li Hua held her tightly without letting go, not even raising his head, afraid that if he looked up at this moment, he would reveal the ugly desires in his eyes that were hard to hide.

For the first time in his life, he was captivated by someone, and Li Hua possessed a dignified composure ingrained in his very being. Even though he did not grow up in the royal family like Zhongli Zhengzhen and had not received the education of a prince, he was more virtuous than Zhongli Zhengzhen and was a true gentleman.

Even though he and Gan Qiongying are husband and wife, even though he is indulging in love right now.

However, Li Hua felt that exposing his desires in front of Gan Qiongying before the two of them had fully expressed their feelings for each other was a despicable and sordid thing to do.

What's rather strange is that the environment in which the Li Hua grows up makes it very easy for it to develop a dark temperament.

He was indeed melancholic, sensitive, fragile, and insecure, even somewhat extreme; his personality was unhealthy. However, his views on emotions were surprisingly healthy.

He imagined that love should flow quietly like a warm spring, gentle, peaceful, and comforting.

It's a place that makes you feel relaxed and comfortable, both physically and mentally.

Therefore, even before Gan Qiongying understood Li Hua's feelings, she had already experienced the beauty of the emotions he gave her.

Gan Qiongying was held in Li Hua's arms, feeling warm and secure, like soaking in a hot spring, which even made her drowsy.

It wasn't until the carriage stopped that Gan Qiongying actually took a short nap. After waking up, she rubbed her eyes, and Li Hua finally relaxed his arm a little.

His legs were numb, but Gan Qiongying felt completely comfortable.

"Are you home yet?" Gan Qiongying asked, her voice slightly nasal.

Li Hua hummed in agreement.

Just then, Manyue came and knocked on the door. Gan Qiongying immediately got off Lihua's lap and headed towards the carriage curtain.

She stopped after taking two steps, looked at Li Hua, and said with a smile, still a little sleepy, "Why aren't you coming over? Are your legs numb?"

"I told you I wasn't going to sit..."

Gan Qiongying turned back and then very naturally went to help Li Hua.

The two embraced all the way, but although they never analyzed each other's feelings, they still couldn't overcome the mountains and seas separating them, and they couldn't be honest with each other.

But their hearts seemed much closer, and their intimacy felt exceptionally natural.

Gan Qiongying tapped Li Hua's leg a few times. After enduring it for a moment, Li Hua grabbed Gan Qiongying's hand and pulled away.

When a person's limbs are numb, it already feels like a million ants are crawling on them, so you can imagine how it feels to be hit at that moment.

Li Hua looked at Gan Qiongying, who couldn't hide the malice in her eyes, nor did she intend to.

Seeing her smug and mischievous expression, Li Hua couldn't help but laugh.

The two finally reconciled. Li Hua released Gan Qiongying's hand, pointed to her leg, and said, "Knock it."

This time, Gan Qiongying didn't knock. Instead, she grabbed Li Hua's leg and gently massaged it to relieve the numbness, promote blood circulation, and help the numbness subside quickly.

Full Moon couldn't wait any longer and called out from outside, "Princess?"

Gan Qiongying then helped Li Hua, and the two of them went to the carriage door together.

Gan Qiongying was overjoyed; she had finally managed to coax the God of Wealth into coming home.

Moreover, she was very clever and immediately seized the opportunity to tell the God of Wealth that she wanted to deal with the young masters in the backyard herself, and the God of Wealth did not object.

Everything went very smoothly.

But after Gan Qiongying lifted the carriage curtain, she could no longer smile.

Because she discovered that the place where the carriage was parked was not the princess's residence at all!

Gan Qiongying cried out in anguish, "How could we be here? Weren't we going home?!"

Li Hua had already been helped down from the carriage by Manyue. Hearing this, he turned around and stood below the carriage looking at her, his voice carrying a hint of amusement: "You and I are husband and wife, so the Prince Consort's residence is naturally also the princess's home."
