Chapter 98 So, do you still like beautiful girls?

But when the night came, Chu Ran regretted it again. Li Fu just wanted to spend more time with him before leaving. Chu Ran felt that he should satisfy Li Fu's small wish and request.

After thinking about it, Chu Ran decided to just forget it.

It doesn't happen every night, does it? It only happens once in a while. When I slept alone before, it only happened once in a long time. It may not happen again tonight.

Chu Ran comforted himself in this way.

Moreover, Chu Ran counted on his fingers and found that the Mid-Autumn Festival would be in five days.

But in fact, the time he spent with Li Fu was not even five days.

Originally, after leaving the East Factory, Chu Ran should have returned directly to the palace, because since the incident at the pagoda, the construction of the pagoda had been temporarily suspended. Chu Ran was originally able to stay outside the palace for a long time, and it was because of this incident that he was approved to stay outside the palace for a long time.

Now that this has happened, Chu Ran has no reason to stay outside the palace, but because he does not want to return to the palace for the time being, Chu Ran still asks Xiao Yingzi to ask Concubine Li for a favor on his behalf, allowing him to rest outside the palace for two days before returning to the palace.

Today is the second day, which means that after tonight, he will return to the palace tomorrow.

But he hadn't had time to tell Li Fu about this.

That's it for one night.

Chu Ran thought.

Although we might meet again during the Mid-Autumn Festival, tonight is the only night we can be alone together.

When Li Fu was washing up nearby, Chu Ran wanted to tell Li Fu about this, but Chu Ran didn't open his mouth until they both finished washing up and lay down on the bed.

After procrastinating for a while, Chu Ran had to tell him about this.

"I'm going back to the palace tomorrow." Chu Ran said.

Li Fu was silent for a while and then said "hmm".

"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, you will go to the palace, right?"

"Yes." Li Fu said.

Chu Ran smiled and said, "Can you find a chance to secretly come to see me? We can eat mooncakes together."

Li Fu's light breath suddenly choked, "...Okay."

"We agreed on this, don't forget it." Chu Ran said.

After a while, Li Fu said, "Chu Ran, give me your hand."

Chu Ran didn't know what he wanted to do, but he stretched out his hand without hesitation.

"What are you doing?" Chu Ran asked puzzledly.

Li Fu also stretched out his hand, held Chu Ran's hand tightly, and then moved it close to his lips. His soft lips pressed against the back of Chu Ran's hand, like an electric current that instantly hit Chu Ran, making him numb from his fingertips to his heart.

Chu Ran slowly widened his eyes, turned his head to look at Li Fu, his heart beating so violently that it seemed like it was going to burst through his chest and jump out of his body.

Li Fu had a faint smile in his eyes. He let go of Chu Ran's hand and said softly in a soothing tone, "You can sleep now."

Li Fu had closed his eyes, but Chu Ran was staring at Li Fu in the darkness. His lips were trembling, and his mood suddenly became inexplicably excited.

"Why are you…"

"Why do you dare to bang your head against the wall?" Li Fu, who said he could go to sleep now, opened his eyes and asked this question repeatedly.

Li Fu had asked him this question when he was in Dongchang, and raising it again now made Chu Ran fall into deeper confusion.

"Is it really just because you're afraid of the pain?"

"That should be it?" Chu Ran said, but he asked back with some uncertainty, "Otherwise, what else could it be for?"

"You have already admitted that you were the one who ordered those craftsmen to do this. All you need to do is obey him and admit that I ordered you to do this, and you won't have to suffer at all."

"Didn't I explain it to you? They were here for you. I admit it's nothing to do with you, but I can't drag you into this. The emperor doesn't like you so much, he will never let you go."

"You really don't care?"

Chu Ran wanted to say it was okay, but was speechless for a moment.

Is it really okay?

That’s not the case.

He was just a powerless eunuch. If he had no one to help him, he would be completely convicted of this crime and might even be executed, right?

The emperor did not like Li Fu, but Li Fu was the prince of Dingbei after all. He was much better than Chu Ran, right? He did not think about whether he could bear it, but was worried that Li Fu could not bear it.

"Am I important to you, Chu Ran?"

Chu Ran felt like something was blocking his throat, making him unable to speak.

It seems so.

In Chu Ran's heart, Li Fu seemed really important, much more important than Chu Ran's own life.

In the long silence, Chu Ran's eyes suddenly fell into complete darkness at a certain moment. His eyes were covered by a warm and rough hand. The hot and disordered breath slowly approached and sprayed on Chu Ran's face. Soon, Chu Ran's lips were kissed lightly.

At first, he was gentle, restrained and cautious in his attempts. Only after he found that Chu Ran did not resist did he become a little bolder.

Chu Ran's expression changed from dull and bewildered to somewhat understanding and sudden realization. Li Fu's kiss had become wanton and fierce. It was the first time that Chu Ran was kissed, and it was so fierce. It was not known whether it was a simple physiological reaction or he seemed to be somewhat excited psychologically. In short, it was as if large pieces of fireworks exploded in his mind one after another, dazzling, gorgeous and dazzled him.

He couldn't even breathe out air, and his brain felt a little suffocated. It had been going on for too long, and he felt like he was going to pass out from Li Fu's kiss.

The soft lips slowly parted, and he heard Li Fu trying his best to calm his heavy breathing, "Don't worry." Li Fu said slowly, "I'm not a child anymore."

In the past, Li Fu was too weak, so he could do nothing when faced with separation. In recent years, he has become strong enough and will not let the regrets of the past happen again.

Although Chu Ran didn't want to get up so early, he had to report to the palace, so Chu Ran was forced to get up early and get on the carriage back to the palace.

From getting up to getting on the carriage, the whole process was so rushed that Chu Ran didn't have time to talk to Li Fu properly. It was not until he got on the carriage that Chu Ran thought, should he at least say to Li Fu, "See you on Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Thinking of this, Chu Ran was about to take action when Li Fu had already lifted the curtain behind Chu Ran from outside.

Li Fu's Adam's apple rolled, and he seemed to have something to say to Chu Ran.

Both of them seemed to have something to say, but they just stared at each other for a long time, not knowing what to say.

"If everything is fine, I'll leave." Chu Ran felt embarrassed, especially when Li Fu was staring at him with such a burning and unrestrained gaze. Chu Ran's face seemed to be burning.

Li Fu still said nothing. Chu Ran was about to put down the curtain when Li Fu asked, "So, do you still like pretty girls?"
