Seeing Ning Wan obediently, Shen Jingyi took off his outer robe and followed her to the bed.
He then forcefully embraced Ning Wan in his arms.
As the warm fragrance filled his arms, Shen Jingyi's lips curled up slightly, and his mood obviously improved a bit.
Ning Wan, who was held in Shen Jingyi's arms, was not in such a good mood. She looked at the ceiling of the bed and subconsciously raised her head to look towards the candle.
How about...
"The candle hasn't gone out yet." Ning Wan said as she sat up from the bed and prepared to get out of bed.
As long as you move quickly, it is possible to escape.
But before he could put it into practice, Shen Jingyi pulled him again and pressed him onto the bed.
"etc."
"Today is our wedding night. It's not too much to light the candles all night long, right?" Shen Jingyi put his arms around Ning Wan's waist, seemingly asking for her opinion, but he didn't give her a chance to refuse.
Do you really think he won't notice this little trick?
After Shen Jingyi said this, Ning Wan had no reason to speak again. She just shrank deeper into the quilt and said, "It's not too much, not too much at all."
Ning Wan looked at Shen Jingyi with innocent eyes, but her hand under the quilt pressed Shen Jingyi's palm hard to stop the movement of Shen Jingyi's hand.
Seeing that Ning Wan had calmed down, Shen Jingyi stopped teasing her and stopped what he was doing. Instead, he held the little hand that was covering his own in his palm.
Ning Wan, who was tied up and unable to move, had no choice but to close her eyes obediently.
It was in this split second that Ning Wan remembered something particularly important.
"Xiao Qi, is there something wrong with your medicine?"
Ning Wan was lying on the bed, thinking about how she and Shen Jingyi were lying together like this not long ago. The difference was that Shen Jingyi was drugged at that time and was lying obediently on the side, without any of the little movements he made now.
But since he was drugged, how could he regain his sanity so quickly?
And according to Xiaoqi's description at the time, he should have slept until the next morning.
After being discovered, Xiaoqi pretended to be dead. He shouldn't have made this deal.
"You didn't reply to me because I guessed right?"
Ning Wan didn't believe that the other party didn't hear it, so she continued.
Seeing that playing dead was useless, Xiao Qi could only explain: "Master, it might be that the male protagonist's aura is too strong, which caused the drug to lose its effect."
The explanation was very good, but unfortunately Ning Wan was not satisfied.
"Should the points be refunded?" Ning Wan asked without any hesitation.
[Host, I cannot retreat.]
"oh."
After responding faintly, Ning Wan no longer had the desire to communicate with Xiao Qi. She simply huddled her head back into the quilt, unilaterally cutting off contact with Xiao Qi.
Suddenly, Ning Wan felt her eyes light up.
He subconsciously opened his eyes and found that it was Shen Jingyi who pulled the quilt off his head.
"You'll suffocate to death." Shen Jingyi looked at Ning Wan who kept hiding her head in the quilt to avoid reality, and spoke seriously.
Hearing what Shen Jingyi said, Ning Wan took a deep breath and then closed her eyes angrily.
Shen Jingyi did not miss this scene and smiled.
Ning Wan was really tired. Even with the bright candlelight, she couldn't hold on for long and fell asleep soon.
After watching Ning Wan fall asleep, Shen Jingyi pulled her closer to his arms, fearing that Ning Wan would be cold.
…
The second day.
After waking up, Ning Wan only felt pain in her neck. After sitting up, she subconsciously reached behind her and found that the quilt was already cold.
Only then did he notice that Shen Jingyi was gone.
Ning Wan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but soon nervously lifted the bed curtain and looked towards the table.
After all, Shen Jingyi always likes to sit in that position.
Seeing that there was no one at the table, Ning Wan looked around and didn't see Shen Jingyi. Ning Wan finally felt relieved.
Suddenly, there was a creaking sound in the air.
The door was pushed open from the outside.
Ning Wan's attention was instantly drawn to it, and her eyes widened as she stared at the door that was pushed open.
This was the scene Xiaoju saw when she pushed the door open.
Ning Wan wrapped herself in the quilt and curled up into a ball, then her furry little head appeared from behind the bed curtains, staring at her without blinking, as if she was wary of bad guys.
Xiaoju smiled and looked at Ning Wan: "Your Highness, don't be afraid, it's Xiaoju."
"The emperor has returned. Shen Jingyi can't hurt the princess."
Xiaoju said this and put the water in her hand on the shelf beside her.
Walked towards the bed again.
Ning Wan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the person coming was Xiaoju. She thought that Shen Jingyi had come back again and scared her.
Just looking at the extremely optimistic Xiaoju in front of him, Ning Wan thought helplessly: This is no longer a question of whether to be afraid or not, it is a question of whether being afraid is useless.
Ning Wan lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and put on her clothes.
Xiao Ju naturally didn't know what Ning Wan was thinking. As she helped Ning Wan dress up, she spoke excitedly, "The Emperor sent someone to say he'll come visit the princess after court today. Calculating the time, it's almost time."
Xiaoju looked at the dressed-up princess in the mirror, and thought of the situation where the princess's mansion was sealed not long ago, and a tear unconsciously flowed from her eyes.
Before Ning Wan could say anything more, Xiaoju felt her eyes moist and quickly wiped away the tears.
"Don't worry, Princess. Xiaoju will definitely explain the letter to the Emperor."
Xiaoju paused after she finished speaking, then remembered something and continued, "Yes, and I will tell His Majesty everything that the princess has suffered these days, and let His Majesty make the decision for her!"
Ning Wan was a little panicked when she heard that Ning Mu was coming. After all, she was too sleepy last night and really didn't have the energy to think too much.
But today is different. If I get exposed and recognized, I won’t even be able to find a reason to explain myself.
But before I had time to think about it, I was amused by Xiaoju's long string of words.
Ning Wan took Xiaoju's hand and patted it, "Okay, Amu just came back and has a lot of things to do. There's no need for me to bother with those little things."
Xiaoju pulled her hand back, "How can it be a small matter? The princess's affairs are all big matters!"
Xiaoju knew it in her heart. How could she not feel aggrieved and not care? It was obvious that Her Royal Highness the Princess said this on purpose because she didn't want to make the Emperor worry.
She is not stupid.
Ning Wan listened to Xiaoju's childish words, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly, "Okay, okay, these are all big things."
Listening to Ning Wan's words that were obviously meant to comfort a child, Xiaoju opened her mouth but had nothing to say.
But when I thought that the emperor would be coming soon, I felt much better.
If Her Royal Highness the Princess doesn’t want to hear it, that’s okay, just tell the Emperor.
Anyway, the emperor will make the decision for Her Royal Highness the Princess.
