Chapter 33: Bridal Chamber
The sky outside the window was pale as if with a fish belly, and morning had arrived.
Pei Zhouwu stood in front of the bed in a daze, letting Liu Fuying blow air on his wound. Perhaps this method of relieving pain was very effective, so he was reluctant to interrupt.
Or maybe his mind was wandering and he was in a daze and forgot to react.
All I could think about were the two light kisses last night.
He was awakened just now because of Liu Fuying.
In the dream, she was taken away and then disappeared from the face of the earth. Even though he searched the entire Shangjing City, he couldn't find her. The oath she once made that she would never abandon him became empty, as if she had never been in his world and it was just a dream from beginning to end.
But now, the person in the dream is right within reach.
Her eyebrows and her face were clearly visible, with a breath of life that was very different from the dream.
He slowly raised his hand, wanting to touch her face and feel her authenticity.
Suddenly.
There was a noise outside the house.
He is a martial artist, so his hearing is different from that of ordinary people.
Before Liu Fuying noticed anything, she was carried and turned around. Pei Zhouwu subconsciously protected her in front of him, leaving his back facing the door.
"Let's not go in. If anything happens again, we can't take the responsibility."
"We have to see if he is still alive. Madam Pei left a message when she left. If the prince's uncle dies, not only the queen in the palace, but also the prince's father-in-law's mansion will not let us go."
"Well, go ahead then."
When he reached the door, he made a gesture to push forward.
"Why can't you push it?"
Liu Fuying bolted the door at night, so of course it couldn't be opened.
"This uncle of the emperor is really something. He actually locked the door. Is he afraid that we will use the incense to harm him again?"
"Stop talking nonsense."
"Then let's..."
"Get out!" Pei Zhouwu shouted sideways at the outside.
The two men were so terrified that they dared not move forward. They retreated backwards and ran away.
Pei Zhouwu was chained and scented with knockout gas, but he was still able to kill someone. This was a big shock to the guards outside. Anyone who didn't care about his own life was afraid of angering Pei Zhouwu and ending up with a tragic death.
The person has gone far away, but the house is still quiet.
Just now, Pei Zhouwu hugged Liu Fuying and covered her mouth at the same time.
His palm was so big that it covered half of her face.
Pei Zhouwu turned around and met her bright moon-like gaze with some fear. His heart suddenly tightened and he quickly put away the hostility he had just used to deal with the guard outside the house.
In order to disperse the bloody smell in the room, the windows in front of the bed were not completely closed.
It was half open with a gap, and the morning breeze pushed in with a creaking sound.
It must be a windy day today. The wind blew their hair and made it flutter in the air, and it was like the onlookers cheering them on, asking them to move closer and closer.
Their eyes met, and remained fixed on each other for a long time.
The gazes they gazed at each other, encouraged by the morning breeze, gave rise to a hint of ambiguity.
Her sleeves fluttered and she clapped her hands constantly, as if she was making a fuss in a bridal chamber.
The atmosphere is already like this, it's time to kiss the bride.
This time, it was Pei Zhouwu who took the initiative.
Although the hand was still covering her face, his face and body slowly moved closer. When he was almost close to her face, he remembered to take his hand away. His hot breath was getting closer and closer, and when he was about to touch her...
Liu Fuying suddenly turned his head away.
"Let me...let me change the medicine for you." She changed the subject.
Only then did Pei Zhouwu come back to his senses, as if realizing what he was doing.
He hesitated and took two steps back, with a look of guilt on his face.
Just as he was about to speak, Liu Fuying had already moved away to wring out the towel in the basin.
It wasn't that she didn't want to kiss him.
But there is a difference between her taking the initiative and his taking the initiative. It is the first time he wants to kiss her, and it would be so boring if it happens easily. He wants it but cannot easily get it. The more he cannot get it, the more itchy he feels and the more he misses it.
When it explodes next time, it will be more violent.
“Su…”
As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that what he said was inappropriate and hurriedly changed his words.
"Yueying, I...I..."
He wanted to apologize and explain, but he couldn't say anything.
I really wanted to kiss her just now.
What explanation can be given.
"I know." Liu Fuying turned her back and twisted the towel very slowly. She acted extremely shy and said, "You know how I feel about you, so I am actually happy in my heart. I'm just... just worried about your injury, which is still bleeding. I just hope you can get better soon, just to give me peace of mind, okay?"
She spoke softly, as gentle as a pool of spring water.
Pei Zhouwu's reaction also became softer as she did, and he slowly said "OK" with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
Afterwards, Liu Fuying stood in front of him again with a half-dry towel, and wiped the blood off his body bit by bit. During the process, she remained shy and did not dare to look up at Pei Zhouwu. Pei Zhouwu also looked at her tenderly, with the affection between men and women that she had never experienced before.
"wait for me."
After cleaning the wound and applying medicine, Liu Fuying went out to get the gauze that was hung outside to dry last night.
Seeing her turn around, Pei Zhouwu unconsciously wanted to follow her. He wanted to follow her. Wherever she went, he also wanted to go. He hoped to see her all the time.
But after taking only two steps, he suddenly stopped.
I had just promised her that I would take good care of my injuries and get better soon, but now I'm moving around so recklessly. Wouldn't it be a waste of her kindness if I broke down again right after applying the medicine?
So he moved to the bed and sat down, just waiting quietly for her to come back.
When Liu Fuying came back, his eyes were curved with a smile on their faces, but his heart froze because of her sudden words.
"I have to leave soon." Liu Fuying said.
I'll be leaving soon.
Pei Zhouwu felt his chest heavy and his heart was hanging in the air.
yes.
He was imprisoned here with chains, but she was not. She had to leave anyway.
She said she was willing to stay with him forever, but is this a good place to enjoy life? Even if she was willing, he couldn't be so selfish.
Pei Zhouwu nodded slowly and uttered another word, "Okay."
This heavy word "good" is completely different from the joy just now.
"Okay," he repeated, trying to hide his disappointment.
Liu Fuying saw the sadness that he tried so hard to hide, and felt affectionate towards him without showing it.
"You should remember that I fainted that day. It was because Concubine Qi was ill and had been bedridden for several days. Old Prince Qi found an opportunity to drag me to his room. I managed to escape with great effort. I was so scared that I couldn't eat all day, and I was physically weak because of excessive worry."
She spoke slowly and in a calm manner.
Pei Zhouwu's face was gloomy, and his expression was full of forbearance.
"But don't worry, the concubine is still ill. If he has sex with his adopted daughter when his biological mother is seriously ill... it will be said that he is unkind and unfilial, so he will restrain himself. I say this because I want to say..."
"What?" Pei Zhouwu's face looked really bad.
