Therefore, Ye Qingxue chose to stay when Xiangsizi left, but she did not expect that the other party would be so fast, arriving in the middle of the night.

Yun Zhuo's ears turned red again.

But Ye Qingxue seemed to be discussing a serious matter.

How could she, an unmarried young woman, talk about such things so confidently and without batting an eye?

Yun Zhuo lowered his eyes to look at their tightly clasped hands, and smiled slightly: "With Miss Ye here, I'm not afraid."

Ye Qingxue exchanged a glance with him, then let go of his hand. "I'll disguise myself and go check out the situation in the backyard."

Yun Zhuo turned around and took out a night suit from the hidden compartment, handing it to her.

Ye Qingxue thought it was men's clothing, but when she unfolded it, she was surprised: "Women's clothing? Do you usually keep women's items here?"

"..." Yun Zhuo thought for a moment and said, "We are on the same road, so my place should always have your things. Look, it's good that I planned ahead, and now it comes in handy."

Ye Qingxue glanced at him and saw that his eyes were somewhat evasive, but her ears turned bright red.

Ye Qingxue was even more surprised.

"Before I returned from the estate in Jingzhou, my nanny told me that the young masters of wealthy families already had women in their rooms, either concubines or maids. As the former crown prince, you should have had quite a few women. Why do you blush when women are mentioned? Why are you so easily embarrassed?"

She leaned closer again, and Yun Zhuo, caught off guard, was almost pulled into her arms. Ye Qingxue looked up at him and asked, "Are you really shy?"

Yun Zhuo lost control for a moment, grabbed her waist, and pulled her into his arms, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.
