Chapter 144 Don't just say it's okay
In the end, Yu Nian was carried back to Yu Garden by Chunyu Han; it really wasn't that she wanted to cling to him.
When Jueying stopped, Yu Nian felt that her entire lower body was numb and she couldn't walk at all.
"Good Chuntao, quickly massage my legs, they hurt so much."
Yu Nian lay down on the bed and buried her head in the soft pillow.
"Miss, why does your voice sound a little hoarse?"
When Chun Tao saw Yu Nian return, she knew that the matter should have been successfully completed.
Yu Nian pouted, feeling wronged. How could she not be hoarse? She had been screaming all the way, even the best voice would have given out.
"It's all Chunyu Han's fault... Never mind him, have you been paying attention to what's happening at the Lu residence tonight?"
Seeing Yu Nian's hesitant expression, Chun Tao felt a pang of sympathy for her. Lord Chunyu was never gentle enough with his young mistress in some ways.
The theft at the Eastern Palace caused a great uproar, and people are still checking the palace at the city gate.
"Most of the Lu family members and government officials are searching for Miss Mingzhu along the moat. After such a big incident, I heard that the tea merchant didn't even ask a single question. He's busy having a romantic night with his concubine..."
Yu Nian rolled his eyes with disdain. Luckily, Mingzhu didn't marry him, otherwise it would have ruined her life.
After regaining feeling in her legs, Yu Nian immediately took the time to wash up. She didn't want to drink the bird's nest soup anymore; all she wanted to do now was crawl into her warm bed and get some sleep.
No sooner had the person covered themselves with the blanket than a tall, slender figure walked in.
It's so late, can't you just rest in your own room?
Yu Nian reluctantly crawled out of bed, pouting slightly to make room for Chunyu Han. What could she do? She was the one who warmed the bed.
"where did you go?"
Chunyu Han turned to look at Yu Nian's retreating figure as she walked out, clutching her pillow, as if someone had bullied her.
“I’m afraid of disturbing my husband’s peaceful sleep. This bed is too small, so I’ll go sleep on the couch.”
Yu didn't even reply, because the resentment in her eyes was impossible to hide.
"I won't bother you. I'll allow you to sleep with me from now on."
Chunyu Han sat down and patted the edge of the bed.
He thought back carefully and realized that he hadn't had any nightmares since then, especially when he was with Yu Nian. Even without incense or sachets, he always slept very well.
The string of sandalwood prayer beads used for calming the mind was also placed in the Honeysuckle Pavilion, no longer an item he was inseparable from.
Yu Nian finally turned around when she heard the voice. She stopped pretending and couldn't pretend anymore. They were all allies, so why couldn't she get a good night's sleep?
"To be frank, you always squeeze me when you sleep, which makes me uncomfortable and I can't sleep well."
A pair of peach blossom eyes shimmered with a shimmering light, and her soft, sweet voice carried a hint of anger as she accused Chunyu Han.
Yu Nian raised her chin slightly, like a defiant little rooster. She wanted to let that scoundrel know that she also had her bottom line.
Chunyu Han lowered his eyes and seriously considered what Yu Nian had said.
Was she feeling unwell? He, on the other hand, felt quite comfortable.
"I won't hold you back anymore, come on up."
As Chunyu Han's deep voice faded, Yu Nian thought she was hallucinating.
"real?"
For the first time, Yu Nian realized that the ruthless Chunyu Han was actually quite easy to talk to.
"You think everyone is like you, spouting nonsense."
Chunyu Han reached out and lifted the blanket, glancing sideways at Yu Nian, who was still standing there dumbfounded on the ground.
"If you're not coming up, then you can sleep outside."
"Go! Go! I'll go!"
Yu Nian hugged her pillow and crawled into bed. It was so cold outside; nothing beat the comfort of being in bed.
After lowering the bed curtains, Chunyu Han kept his word and didn't hold Yu Nian back like before. The two lay side by side on the bed, with an arm's length between them.
Just as Yu Nian was about to drift off to sleep, she suddenly heard Chunyu Han's voice beside her.
"The Emperor will be going to the hunting grounds for the autumn hunt at the beginning of next month. I need to go to the hunting grounds a few days in advance to set up defenses and conduct reconnaissance. You should stay at home and behave yourself, and don't cause any trouble."
Yu Nian has many clever ideas, and the Prime Minister is also in court assisting in governance, so Chunyu Han is not worried about her being bullied.
Chunyu Han has taken Yu Nian's lottery tips and will be very busy these few days. If the Emperor arranges for him to leave early, he is afraid he won't have time to tell Yu Nian.
After all, she's so clingy. Last time, he was only gone for a few days, and she was already writing to him every day to urge him to leave.
Chunyu Han's words successfully extinguished Yu Nian's drowsiness.
Damn! Chunyu Han is going on another business trip!
Today is the sixteenth, which means Chunyu Han will be leaving in a few days.
Although Yu Nian successfully prevented Yu Jing from falling into a dead end of darkness and just received 100,000 merit points, merit points should be spent wisely and should not be wasted.
"When you go to the hunting grounds for the autumn hunt, can't you bring your family?"
When the emperor goes hunting, he usually brings six or seven concubines with him. Chunyu Han only brought her. There shouldn't be any problem, right?
"Can you ride a horse or shoot an arrow? What will you be doing there?"
Chunyu Han couldn't help but recall Yu Nian's performance on horseback today. Both his rationality and personal desires prevented others from seeing Yu Nian in that state.
Horseback riding again...
Yu Nian immediately felt that Chunyu Han was looking down on her. Wasn't this her first time today? Why shouldn't he let her be nervous!
She's a refined person who does scientific research, okay? If she were some kind of secret agent, she'd definitely give Chunyu Han a horseback riding performance to dazzle him.
Yu Nian then thought again that horseback riding was a crucial skill. In case she had to flee or run away in the future, she couldn't possibly rely solely on running.
"Husband, please teach me!"
Yu Nian turned over and lay on her side, reaching out to tug at Chunyu Han's blanket.
A waft of gardenia fragrance approached, and the girl's warm breath wafted over, like a blooming flower, making one unable to resist taking a gentle sniff. Chunyu Han's heart skipped a beat, and he turned his face away, speaking in a cold voice.
"I'm very busy."
Moreover, Chunyu Han has an important person to meet during the autumn hunt, so he may not be able to attend to Yu Nian.
Yu Nian snorted lightly, "You bastard, you're forcing me to use my trump card, aren't you!"
Yu Nian sat up, aimed at Chunyu Han's neck, and thrust her little head into his neck.
While arching, he was muttering to himself.
"Husband, how can you be so heartless as to leave me at home? What am I supposed to do if I can't see you? Please teach me, or you can have someone else teach me. If I really can't learn, can I just stay here quietly?"
The little pig started nudging people again. Chunyu Han felt itchy in the nape of his neck, so he raised his hand and pushed her forehead.
There's just no way to deal with her...
"Be honest, I can teach you when I have time, but if you don't get it, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. You won't be able to win me over by then."
Yu Nian immediately stopped what she was doing, her face beaming with joy.
"Hehe, my husband is so good."
In the dim light of the bed curtains, Chunyu Han could vaguely see the delicate features of the girl's eyebrows and eyes, and her shallow dimples.
"Just saying it's good?"
Chunyu Han looked at Yu Nian's face, which was so close to his own, and suddenly felt a dryness and itchiness in his throat.
"Um?"
Before Yu Nian could understand what Chunyu Han meant, she was flipped over and pinned to the soft pillow.
His dark eyes narrowed slightly, like a ferocious beast locking onto its prey in the darkness, and the chilling scent of sandalwood that swept over him made one dizzy.
Then she should be punished for her eloquent tongue.
Their noses touched, their breaths mingled.
A faint moan could be heard from inside the hibiscus-covered tent.
