Chapter 87
"Qingnian, what book is this? Why is there no title on the cover?"
Song Xuan's hoarse voice carried a hint of doubt, and sparks of light ignited in his gentle eyes. This knowing look was exactly what Shen Qingnian wanted.
Shen Qingnian held the book in her arms, the faint blush on her cheeks making her exceptionally beautiful, and her alluring yet hesitant gaze was irresistible to Song Xuan.
Shen Qingnian was already leaning against Song Xuan's chest, so she naturally sensed the change in him. With just this scene, she aroused the man, saving her the trouble of using the fire-avoidance diagram.
Thinking this, she put the book in her hand to her side, then hooked her arms around the man's neck, pressed herself against him, and snuggled closer, successfully eliciting a muffled groan from him.
She then spoke softly, "Your Highness, didn't you want to see my wounds? Then please carry me to the bed."
Song Xuan's breathing became somewhat rapid. Although their wedding lasted only three days, their bodies had already explored each other many times.
He scooped the beauty in his arms up, secretly slipping the nameless book into his wide sleeve where she couldn't see it, and then carried her to the bed...
Inside the bedchamber, a faint scent of jasmine perfumed the air, its fragrance lingering over the bed. Layers of gauze curtains were tied up and hung at the four corners of the bed.
Shen Qingnian was placed on the bed by Song Xuan. Her light purple embroidered long dress was spread on the bed, and her long, dark hair was scattered on the jade pillow, making her face look exceptionally radiant.
Song Xuan stood by the bed, his gentle eyes lowered as he carefully gazed at the beauty on the bed.
Because of her marriage, Shen Qingnian lost some of her girlish charm and gained a more alluring demeanor. Her curves seemed more pronounced, like ripe honey that would burst with juice at the slightest touch...
Song Xuan's eyes were deep and unfathomable, like a wild beast poised to pounce. If it weren't for his clothing, he would have already revealed his ferocious nature.
Shen Qingnian tugged at his sleeve, her voice sweet and coquettish, yet tinged with shyness: "Please, Your Highness, help me..."
Song Xuan suppressed his agitation; he really needed to check the beauty's back.
A moment later, Shen Qingnian's bare back appeared in front of him. On her fair and delicate back, the light pink scar was not very obvious, but it was extremely glaring to Song Xuan.
"But what's the problem?" Shen Qingnian's slightly coquettish voice rang out. She was naked from the waist up, with her back to the man.
Song Xuan's voice carried a hint of ambiguity and anger, low and hoarse: "It's nothing serious, but we still need to invite the divine physician to the palace to take a look."
He was very tall, and even though he was sitting in front of Shen Qingnian, he only needed to raise his eyes slightly to easily see the beautiful scenery in front of him.
Upon hearing Song Xuan's words, Shen Qingnian replied in a relaxed tone, "Since it's alright, then I thank Your Highness."
After saying that, she turned her head slightly to look at the man, and then turned her head back. Her slight movement made the beautiful scenery sway gently, captivating the heart.
The next moment, a large hand swept across her fair waist, pulling her backward and causing her to nestle into the man's arms.
Even through the man's clothes, she could still feel his heart pounding like a drum and his body temperature so high it seemed to burn the fabric.
A slightly hoarse male voice came from above: "Why did you seek out that Xia Zi and send him to retrieve this fire-avoidance map, hmm?"
He took out the book that he had been hiding in his moon-white sleeve and held it up in front of Shen Qingnian.
Shen Qingnian was surprised that Song Xuan had secretly taken the book. She asked in surprise, "How did you bring the book here?"
"This fire-avoidance diagram is meaningless to look at alone; it needs to be viewed and discussed together by two people..." Song Xuan whispered in the beauty's ear, his usually gentle tone tinged with a hint of desire.
Shen Qingnian felt a tickle in her ears. She looked at the book in the man's hand, her face burning up, and even her earlobes turned slightly red.
After Xia Zi delivered the fire-avoidance diagram, she didn't examine it, only thinking that it was for conveying meaning to men.
