Li Yunyan had always considered herself to have an unconventional way of thinking, but she never expected to meet her match.
Fearing that Yunyi would get angry again, she stopped being coy and went directly behind the screen.
Inside was a large bathtub, slowly emitting steam.
They actually prepared the hot water in advance?
Taking a bath next to a man she had only met once made Li Yunyan feel a little shy.
Although there was a screen between them, it was neither soundproof nor airtight, and Li Yunyan was very careful even when she stepped into the water.
So comfortable!
Li Yunyan lay in the bathtub, letting out a comfortable sigh. The original owner of this body probably hadn't had a proper rest since entering the palace; she had felt aches and pains all over her body before, but now, after taking a bath, she felt her pores open up comfortably.
Yuan Yi listened to the voices behind the screen, his slender fingers tapping on the table. He was surprised to hear that she was actually enjoying herself.
This little palace maid doesn't seem to be afraid of me at all?
Does she not know who she is, or is she really not very bright?
She must be out of her mind, otherwise she wouldn't have been so badly tricked by her stepmother and stepsister!
Feeling that she had been soaking in the bath for too long, Yun Yi couldn't help but speak up, "I called you here not for you to enjoy yourself!"
"Okay! Good handprint, I'm almost done!"
Li Yunyan suddenly realized she had almost forgotten the important matter!
She stepped out of the bathtub and was about to pick up the palace maid's clothes she had just taken off and put them back on when her hand slipped.
The palace maid's clothes fell into the bathtub and got wet.
She let out a small gasp, followed by a flurry of activity.
Yun Yi, growing impatient, called out, "Why are you taking so long?"
A head, still damp with moisture, peeked out from behind the screen, trembling slightly, and whispered, "A palm, a palm print... my clothes are wet."
"This servant has no clean clothes to change into..."
Yun Yi closed his eyes; he really hadn't thought of that.
There were no palace maids' clothes in Ziyun Palace. He pinched the bridge of his nose, resignedly stood up, and took out a set of nightgown from his wardrobe.
He walked to the screen, raised his hand, and handed it in, saying, "Take it!"
"Thank you, Master Seal!"
Yunyi's outfit was a bit too big for Li Yunyan's frame. She struggled to put it on, tightening the belt and trousers, and then folding the sleeves and trouser legs several times before it was barely acceptable.
She walked out from behind the screen with her head down, and said in a trembling voice, "Master, I'm ready."
Seeing her wearing his clothes, Yunyi felt a strange sensation. It wasn't unpleasant, but it was rather awkward.
He lowered his head and took a sniff at her side.
It still has that sweet fragrance!
Take another breath...
Li Yunyan felt that Yun Yi was acting like a pervert at this moment. She stood there without daring to move, thinking to herself, "Why don't I just pounce on him?"
Yun Yi felt his head had never felt so light. He opened his cold eyes and asked again, "You really didn't use any incense?"
"No." Li Yunyan shook her head, looking at him innocently with her eyes.
“In that case.” Yun Yi slowly straightened up. He was tall and slender, much taller than Li Yunyan when he stood up straight.
He said casually, "From now on, you'll be responsible for sleeping with me!"
"ah?!!"
Li Yunyan felt like she had used up all the surprises she had in her life today. Sleep with him?
What direction is this heading?
Yun Yi walked to the carved rosewood bed and nodded with his chin, "You lie down in there."
Now?
"Don't make me say it a second time!" He raised his voice a few decibels, as if he would chop her up immediately if she disobeyed.
"Oh!" Li Yunyan took three steps at a time and ran to the bedside in a few moments. She took off her embroidered shoes, climbed into the bed, and lay down.
Tragically, there was only one pillow and one blanket on the bed. Li Yunyan didn't touch his pillow, but lay down in the corner, watching his expression. She secretly pulled a corner of the blanket over her stomach.
Seeing that she was lying down, Yun Yi also lay down, his sleeping posture extremely upright.
So it really was just sleeping!
Li Yunyan suppressed her disappointment. It made sense; no matter how anxious one was, it couldn't have been this rushed!
Yun Yi felt relaxed as he smelled the refreshing fragrance, but Li Yunyan was sleeping too far away, so the scent was a little faint.
"Come a little closer!"
"Oh!" Li Yunyan resignedly moved to the side, realizing that she was essentially a human incense burner.
As Yun Yi smelled the fragrance emanating from her, his headache gradually subsided, and sleepiness began to wash over him.
"Lord of the Seal?" Li Yunyan wanted to ask him if she could also take a nap with him.
"Shut up."
"oh."
Seeing Yunyi close his eyes, Li Yunyan felt it was very magical.
On her first day in this little world, she slept in the same bed with the supposedly difficult Grand Eunuch.
Although the two of them were just sleeping together, it means that he doesn't dislike her. So, it's only a matter of time before she wins him over.
She relaxed, her mind racing with thoughts, and gradually drifted off to sleep.
Yun Yi heard her breathing become long and even, and opened his eyes.
He looked at her peaceful sleeping face and said softly, "She's asleep already?"
"They really have a big heart."
......
Li Yunyan slept very well.
When she woke up, she felt herself enveloped in a warm embrace, which was a little hot.
"hot!"
She muttered something and expertly pressed her abs.
Li Yunyan felt a jolt when she noticed that the shape of her abdominal muscles was somewhat different from before.
She suddenly remembered that she was no longer in the previous little world.
She wasn't touching Gu Yingzhi's abs!
Slowly opening her eyes, Li Yunyan prayed in her heart, "Please, please don't wake up! Please don't wake up!"
Then I met his indescribable gaze.
Li Yunyan looked down and found herself nestled in his arms, her head resting on his arm, her thighs draped over him, and her hand... slipped under his shirt and landed precisely on his firm abs!
She quickly withdrew her hand, rolled backward, and left Yunyi's embrace.
Li Yunyan gave him an awkward smile. "If I said I didn't do it on purpose, would you believe me?"
Yun Yi casually pulled up the hem of her clothes, her voice a little hoarse from just waking up: "Why don't you refer to yourself as a servant anymore?"
"Oh! Right!" Li Yunyan admitted her mistake quickly. "This servant didn't mean it! Please, Your Excellency, judge this clearly!"
He focused his gaze on her fingers. "Do you usually sleep like this?"
"How could that be!"
Li Yunyan chuckled dryly, hiding her hands behind her back. "It must be because there was no pillow that I ended up squeezing next to the handprint. I won't do it again!"
Yun Yi looked down at his nightgown again; his hand had been on his chest muscles until she touched his abs.
