"Mmm!"
After being kissed until she saw stars, Cen Xi finally broke free from Shen Jinchen's grasp. After what he had done, he knew what she was angry about, so he quickly coaxed her:
"I belong to you alone, just you, okay? Don't go crazy. Didn't you say you were going to give me a surprise? I'm still waiting."
"Now I don't want to give it to you anymore."
Shen Jinchen looked at him coldly, still feeling very unhappy. He had treated her with all his heart, even wanting to reveal all his secrets, but she always erected an invisible barrier around him, keeping him at a distance.
This made him, someone who had always meticulously planned everything, feel like he was out of control.
"Are you really angry? Don't be like this. We haven't known each other for very long, so it's normal that our relationship isn't very strong yet. It'll get better with time, won't it? Sweetheart, my love! Don't be so temperamental, okay?"
Seeing that his expression was still unfriendly, Cen Xi tried to coax him. Seeing his hurt look, Cen Xi felt a little guilty, so she spoke in an extremely ingratiating tone.
Shen Jinchen was successfully broken down by his words "My dear, my lover," and his sullen expression finally softened.
"Am I your lover?"
After calming himself down, he pulled Cen Xi into his arms again and asked.
"Hmm, you rascal! If you're not my lover, then what are you? We've been so intimate, we've done everything that men and women do together, and now you don't want to admit it?"
Cen Xi used her slender hands to draw circles on Shen Jincheng's chest, perfectly expressing the seductive charm of a woman trying to seduce a man.
Shen Jinchen was already often tempted by her subtle and ambiguous actions, and now that she had done this, the anger he felt had long since dissipated.
Thinking of everything he had prepared for Feifeng Mountain, he really had the idea of giving up everything and living a carefree life with her in this mortal world.
But some things are ultimately...
Fine, whether she likes it or not, he will drag her along, never giving up until death do them part.
After thinking it through, Shen Jinchen controlled his emotions and spoke calmly:
"Let's go up the mountain first!"
"Alright! Come, my love, come with me up the mountain and be my husband!"
Seeing that he finally stopped pursuing the matter, Cen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and then, imitating the roguish manner of harassing women, she provocatively spoke to Shen Jinchen.
"A bandit chieftain? Shall we hold a wedding ceremony tonight?"
Shen Jinchen let her pull him along, his previous unpleasant mood vanished, and he looked at Cen Xiwen with a flirtatious expression.
"Sure? You'll sneak into my room tonight?"
Cen Xi grabbed his hand and walked up the steps one by one, continuing her scoundrel behavior to the very end.
"No, not in your bedroom tonight. I'll take you somewhere you'll love."
After Shen Jinchen laughed heartily, his voice became a little hoarse.
Cen Xi naturally knew what he was talking about, and her face flushed red again.
"This has happened so many times already, and you're usually so shameless. Why are you blushing now?"
It was rare to see this woman with such a thick skin, and Shen Jinchen couldn't help but tease her. No matter how he looked at his woman, he thought she was like an extremely beautiful crabapple blossom, so beautiful that he couldn't control himself.
"This is my territory, of course I have to have some self-respect, don't laugh at me."
As Cen Xi climbed the steps, she punched Chen Jinchen with her small fists.
"Hahaha, you little vixen, just wait till I teach you a lesson."
The two pushed and shoved each other as they made their way up Feifeng Mountain.
As Cen Xi approached the mountain gate, he saw that the entire mountain was covered with red and white crabapple blossoms; wherever it could be planted, the crabapple flowers were everywhere.
"How did you manage that? There are no crabapple blossoms in this season! It's still the first month of the lunar calendar, there's no way these could bloom so early!"
Seeing her favorite flowers blooming all over the mountains, Cen Xi danced with joy. This was the Begonia Manor she had wanted; it was absolutely beautiful.
"There's more surprise in store, come with me."
Shen Jinchen looked at her with affection, then took her hand and walked towards the bluestone path on the left.
"Are you going to take me to that place with the flowing spring?"
Seeing the direction he was leading her by the hand, Cen Xi couldn't help but ask.
"Um!"
Shen Jinchen glanced at him, then smiled.
"Is that the place you told me about, the surprise?"
Seeing that his smile was a little...
Cen Xi couldn't quite describe him, or what that smile meant, but she still asked excitedly.
"Um."
Shen Jinchen nodded again, his "hmm" sounding incredibly magnetic, making Cen Xi's heart flutter. To avoid overthinking, Cen Xi wisely shut her mouth.
After walking for the time it takes to drink two cups of tea, Cen Xi looked down and saw a crescent-shaped sea of flowers that was incredibly beautiful.
This sea of flowers stretches out along the outer cliff face, covering two acres of red crabapple trees, while a ring of white crabapple trees encircles the inner wall of the hot spring pool. Both are crescent-shaped and embrace the rock walls on either side. Inside the hot spring pool is a small building; it doesn't look very big, but Cen Xi estimates it should have two rooms. She just doesn't know what the furnishings inside are like.
The hot spring pool was also exquisitely constructed. With Cen Xi's eyes, he could see that it was paved with blue stone walls and the water was deep enough to reach an adult's waist. The small house was built around the wall, and there were blue jade steps leading up to the hot spring pool.
Looking at the arrangement, Cen Xi instantly understood the meaning behind Shen Jinchen's smile on the way here. This man, this scoundrel, is always thinking about things between men and women.
This design and arrangement clearly intends for him and me to hang out here; it's a perfect date setting.
"So? Do you like it? I put a lot of effort into drawing this design myself."
Shen Jinchen looked at her slightly flushed face, smiled, and then hugged her waist from behind and asked.
"What...what do you mean? Why was this place built like this?"
Cen Xi suppressed her excitement and dared not turn to look at Shen Jinchen, even though she already knew the answer.
"Qingqing, what do you mean? You only asked if I like it or not?"
Shen Jinchen rested his head on Cen Xi's shoulder and asked deliberately.
"I…"
Cen Xi took a deep breath, unsure how to answer.
Shen Jinchen interrupted her, saying:
"I think you'd like it. Down the mountain, just tell me you want me to be your husband, and we'll consummate our marriage here tonight, okay?"
"I…."
Looking at this romantic place, Cen Xi's cheeks turned red, and her former thick skin had long since disappeared in embarrassment.
"Don't say any nice things to refuse, okay? This place is so beautiful, all I want is to be with you for the rest of my life. How about we go down and soak in the hot springs first?"
Seeing her face turn as red as a monkey's bottom, Shen Jinchen's smile deepened. He then scooped Cen Xi up and carried her down.
Overwhelmed by such a romantic scene, Cen Xi's mind went completely blank. At this moment, she had no idea what she was supposed to do. She simply let Shen Jinchen carry her into the hot spring in the sea of flowers below.
