But then the rain started to pour down even harder.

More and more raindrops poured onto the lotus flower, constantly drenching it.

It left her swaying in the wind and rain.

The delicate petals thus opened and closed repeatedly, swaying as if being ravaged.

Fortunately, the wind and rain gradually subsided.

The lotus flowers, which had been battered and bruised, finally stopped swaying.

But because of the storm, they bloomed even more brightly.

The petals were covered with raindrops, making the lotus flower appear even more delicate and beautiful.

And very soon.

The storm is brewing again.

This rain is much heavier than before.

The delicate flowers swayed and ravaged incessantly in the wind and rain.

It was so powerful that it almost snapped the flower in half.

Fortunately, the flowers were quite resilient; they not only didn't break, but they also looked even more delicate and beautiful in the wind and rain.

Then even larger raindrops fell, continuously drenching her.

Until, as darkness fell.

The storm finally subsided.

The lotus flowers in the pot were badly battered by the wind and rain, and the whole flower was drooping.

However, the color of the flowers was noticeably more vibrant than before.

Looking at the shape of the flowers again, they seem to look even better than before.

It seems that even the most beautiful flowers need plenty of water!

Seeing that the wind and rain had stopped, Little Shadow took a few steps back and reached the door, waiting casually for instructions from the person inside.

Tianji, who had been standing under the eaves, saw Xiaoyingzi's movements and quietly took the thing out of her ear. Then, she flew up to the roof.

Meanwhile, inside the room...

Shen Hechuan looked at Gu Jingchun, who was leaning weakly on the dragon throne, and smiled with satisfaction. Then he picked him up and carried him to the soft couch in the inner room.

Gu Jingchun was completely exhausted at this point.

He couldn't even move his hands and feet.

She didn't realize that so many years had passed.

Shen Hechuan's skills have actually increased rather than decreased.

After these two ordeals, Gu Jingchun felt completely refreshed, to the point that he couldn't even move a finger.

Upon seeing this, Shen Hechuan immediately carried Gu Jingchun to the washroom to clean her up before carrying her back to bed.

As soon as he touched the bed, Gu Jingchun turned over and closed his eyes.

Shen Hechuan lay beside her, looking at her sleeping face, carefully examining her features, but still finding her pleasing.

He couldn't resist kissing her lips.

However, Gu Jingchun pushed him away directly.

Shen Hechuan wasn't annoyed and moved closer again.

This time, with a soft "slap," Gu Jingchun's hand struck Shen Hechuan's face directly.

Gu Jingchun, who was still in a dream, suddenly opened his eyes.

He was facing Shen Hechuan's smiling face.

"You hit me, how are you going to make it up to me?"

Without waiting for Gu Jingchun to speak, he kissed her again.

Then, with a flip, he pinned Gu Jingchun beneath him.

Another kiss ended.

Shen Hechuan's breathing became hot again.

Things were starting to take an indescribable turn.

Gu Jingchun could no longer hold back and pushed the person down.

"Shen Hechuan, don't you feel tired?"

Shen Hechuan chuckled, "I'm not tired. I could be with you again and again, no matter how long it takes."

As she spoke, she threw off the covers and hugged Gu Jingchun.

This time, Gu Jingchun could still sense Shen Hechuan's presence at the beginning.

By the time I was completely exhausted, I had lost all feeling.

She had no idea how much time had passed.

When she opened her eyes again, Shen Hechuan was still pressed against her, her body bent into a strange shape, enduring Shen Hechuan's...

Gu Jingchun was exhausted and hungry, and soon lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, it was already the next day.

Gu Jingchun slowly opened his eyes.

She looked around before remembering what crazy thing she had done yesterday.

Because of a few words from Shen Hechuan, she couldn't hold back and used Shen Hechuan directly.

And in a place like this.

Gu Jingchun recalled the madness of last night, and felt his heart beat even faster.

She looked around and found that Shen Hechuan was not in the room.

Just then, she heard a conversation nearby.

Gu Jingchun held his breath.

Only then did they realize that the voices were coming from the outer room!

It was only now that Gu Jingchun realized what was happening.

Shen Hechuan is currently discussing matters with his ministers!

She lay there naked in the inner room.

If the ministers found out, they would inevitably accuse her of seducing Shen Hechuan.

Thinking of this, Gu Jingchun wanted to get up and put on his clothes.

But she only moved slightly, and her whole body ached terribly, as if she had been run over.

The slightest movement causes excruciating pain down there.

This made Gu Jingchun gasp and mutter a curse under his breath.

Has Shen Hechuan never seen a woman before?

How could you torture her so cruelly?

And this is still in the Wanhe Palace! How will she ever face anyone again?!

Gu Jingchun's slight gasp caused Shen Hechuan, who was resting with his eyes closed, to slowly open them.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chongfan was earnestly trying to persuade Shen Hechuan.

"Your Majesty, honest advice is hard to hear, but this matter is of utmost importance. You cannot afford to ignore it. If you indulge her now, it may be detrimental to your future endeavors, Your Majesty..."

Shen Hechuan had been looking ahead, seemingly at the document in his hand, but his thoughts had actually returned to yesterday.

This made his heart pound violently in his chest again.

This made him increasingly distracted.

So much time has passed.

Gu Jingchun must have woken up already. If she wakes up and doesn't see me, will she miss me?

So, when Gu Jingchun gasped, Shen Hechuan immediately heard it.

He immediately looked up at Jiang Chongfan.

“Grandfather, it’s getting late, and I’m feeling a bit tired. You should go back now. We can discuss this matter later.”

Jiang Chongfan, who had just come up with a whole list of words and was about to say something more, was suddenly silenced and stood there dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty, this matter is of utmost importance; you must take it seriously!"

But Shen Hechuan had already stood up and was unwilling to listen to another word.

Seeing this, Jiang Chongfan could only stand up, bow, and then turn and leave.

After Jiang Chongfan left, Shen Hechuan could no longer hold back and immediately strode into the inner room.

As soon as I entered, I saw Gu Jingchun preparing to stand up.

But because her legs went weak, her body fell down uncontrollably.

Upon seeing this, Shen Hechuan quickly walked to Gu Jingchun's side, supported her, lifted her up, and placed her back on the bed.

When Gu Jingchun saw Shen Hechuan, his face was full of anger. He glared at him reproachfully and punched him.

"Look what you've done! How am I supposed to go back now?"
