It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it, because as soon as he did, Sang Jiang's face turned serious.
She wriggled out of Long Jingchen's embrace, hands on her hips in a teapot-like gesture: "You have the nerve to bring this up! I'm the one who reminded you, do you even know what Yang Liu did! If it weren't for you, would I have been kidnapped!"
Looking at her, Long Jingchen felt a pang of sadness in his heart.
He originally said that just to let the girl know that she should stick with him after they went out, but she ended up bringing up so many other things.
If he hadn't...
However, he could be considered to have turned misfortune into blessing, otherwise how could he have married Sang Jiang?
Thinking this, he reached out and pulled Sang Jiang into his arms again, making her sit on his lap. Looking at her earnestly, he said, "From now on, I will not send you away again. Please don't leave me, okay?"
Sang Jiang was taken aback by his sudden formality and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
She is, after all, a modern person, and she would definitely be reluctant to give up her modern parents and siblings.
But looking into Long Jingchen's hopeful eyes, she really couldn't bring herself to refuse.
She stood up, turned slightly to the side, picked up something from the table, and began to mutter to herself.
Seeing her reaction, Long Jingchen understood what she meant. His eyes darkened, and he pursed his lips before finally speaking after a long while: "It's alright, I'll wait for you."
He spoke these words very softly, as if he were speaking to Sang Jiang or comforting himself.
The room was quiet, so Sang Jiang heard his words clearly. She pursed her lips slightly, put her things back in annoyance, and then turned to look at Long Jingchen, pretending to yawn, and said, "Let's go to sleep, I'm sleepy."
After saying that, she didn't dare to look at Long Jingchen's expression and turned to walk towards the bed.
Long Jingchen sighed as he watched her retreating figure and followed her.
This time he slept peacefully.
After discovering that the pillow she placed in the middle would mysteriously disappear the next day, she roughly knew what was going on, so she simply removed the middle pillow altogether.
She, who usually falls asleep the moment her head hits the pillow, is having insomnia for the first time ever today.
She listened to Long Jingchen's even breathing and dared not move, afraid of waking him.
She only dared to turn slightly when Long Jingchen's breathing became a little heavier.
Long Jingchen, who always liked to hold her while sleeping, actually fell asleep lying flat today. The moonlight shone softly through the window onto his face, softening his usually aloof features.
Sang Jiang stared at him, mesmerized, and unconsciously reached out to touch his face.
Long Jingchen had actually woken up when Sang Jiang turned around. Just as he was about to open his eyes, he felt Sang Jiang staring at him.
Sang Jiang always fell asleep first, and he couldn't help but wonder what she would do if he fell asleep first, so he kept his eyes closed.
When he felt Sang Jiang's cool fingertips tracing back and forth across his face, his body couldn't help but stiffen.
Sang Jiang's hand stopped when it moved to his thin lips.
Looking at his face, she couldn't help but blush.
She had never really looked at his face before, no matter what, and just thought he was handsome. But now that she looked closely, she realized that she should be content with a man who really looks like that.
But the fact that he was also an emperor, above all others, further enhanced his image...
