Chapter 56: Fish and Bear's Paw
. :
Humans are thinking animals. Often times, we will make comparisons between similar yet different beings, like liking one person a little more, or wanting to pity another person a little more. There is no such thing as partiality, it’s just that our moods will be different when facing different people.
She had seen such shyness and nervousness on Luo Weiqing's face before, but the feeling was very different. Luo Weiqing's stubbornness was hidden in indifference, and there was not much difference when he was gentle, but An Hui was not like that. An Hui's perseverance and strength came from the inside out, and he was not concealed at all. If he was really in pain, it would never make people feel sad, but rather shocking and tragic. However, she did not want to see such a scene. She now felt more pity for An Hui than for Luo Weiqing. One of them was a weed growing on cliffs, and had been struggling to survive until now, and the other was a carefully cultivated elegant bamboo planted in the courtyard, unable to control its own destiny. However, compared with weeds, elegant bamboo each had its own hidden injuries, but one lived a wealthy life, and the other struggled to survive. It was not surprising that she wanted to give the weeds more pity.
She collected her thoughts and looked at An Hui's face. In fact, she thought An Hui was the most handsome one among these men, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, straight nose and deep facial features which made him look very individual. However, from the perspective of the people here, such appearance was not pleasing, especially with the scar on his forehead. An Hui must have felt a little inferior about his appearance because of the scar. She remembered that there was a saying that a woman is proud of the man who pleases her, and it is also applicable here if the word "woman" is changed.
"An Hui, I like the way you look. Open your eyes and let me see you." Qian Heliyou's tone of voice was full of meaning as she lay on An Hui's body. An Hui still had her eyes closed, but after hearing her words, she couldn't help but open them, but she dodged and didn't dare to look into that burning gaze.
"Why don't you dare look at me? Where did your courage just now go?" Qianhe Liyou's hand reached out for the back of An Hui's head, and with a slight force, he made An Hui's face turn towards him, and his eyes had to meet hers.
"Your Majesty, please don't tease me anymore, I, I..." He was so helpless. He felt so ashamed of himself. He had never been so helpless in his life. He didn't even know what to say or do. All his past intelligence disappeared at this moment.
"Haha, when did you start stuttering?" Qian He Liyou was rarely so affectionate. Although his laughter was teasing, it made people feel extremely warm and moved. At least after hearing this light laughter, An Hui felt as if he was surrounded by warmth, and he was so moved that he wanted to cry.
"Your Majesty, you look so beautiful when you smile." An Hui couldn't help but say, and his hand naturally touched the corner of Qianhe Liyou's mouth, wanting to feel that smile very much.
Qian Heliyou was stunned by An Hui's action, and his smile disappeared. An Hui then realized what he had done, and withdrew his hand in panic, saying anxiously: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am rude."
Oh my god, look at what he did just now. He was stunned by the emperor's smile and made such a disrespectful move. I wonder if he will make the emperor angry.
Qian Heliyou did not miss the panic on An Hui's face. He realized that he might have scared him, so he softened his expression. "I don't mind your actions just now. Besides, I would be happier if you were willing to be more proactive."
Qianhe Liyou held An Hui's hand and put his hand on his shoulder, allowing him to be closer to her.
Her body has never been very hot, so when she got close to An Hui, she could clearly feel the warmth coming from the other's body, especially after she said these words, the other's body seemed to be even hotter.
"Can I?" An Hui asked hesitantly. Of course he wanted to hug her tightly, kiss her, and want her love, but could he? He was afraid that he would desecrate her.
"Yes, I said it myself, who dares to say no?" She knew what this man needed, and she would not be stingy and unwilling to give it.
In a word, An Hui could feel the emperor's tyranny and strength, but more importantly, he felt the gentleness behind the tyranny, and this was exactly what he could not resist the most.
An Hui's hands gradually gained strength, and he held his breath and hugged Qian He Liyou devoutly. At this moment, An Hui told himself in his heart that even if he died now, he would have no regrets.
"An Hui, tell me, are you willing to be my man?"
"willing."
The kiss became more and more intense. With Qianhe Liyou's encouragement, An Hui gradually relaxed a little. He was no longer just passively enduring, but actively kissing Qianhe Liyou with a flattering meaning. However, his movements were still cautious for fear of offending her.
Qianhe Liyou was not a greedy person. He only wanted to save An Hui once and then let him go. The quilt was covered on the two of them. An Hui shrank his body unnaturally, but then attracted Qianhe Liyou's displeased eyes, making An Hui freeze in place. Then, under Qianhe Liyou's eyes, his face turned red little by little.
"I will leave now." An Hui felt very happy. The exciting feeling made him devote himself to it wholeheartedly. Every action and every reaction became unlike himself. He was very worried that his performance was not good enough and would make the emperor dissatisfied.
Qianhe Liyou stretched out her hands and hugged An Hui in her arms, resting her head on his shoulder. Her tone was no longer gloomy but rather lazily as she said, "Do you want to stay in the Anbu or enter the palace as a concubine?" She was not an irresponsible person. Since she had eaten the man, of course she would give him a status.
An Hui was very embarrassed when he suddenly heard such a question. It was not that he was greedy for the power of the Anbu, but he was accustomed to the life in the Anbu. Moreover, if he entered the palace as a concubine with his identity, it would definitely cause controversy. He did not want to make things difficult for the emperor. He just wanted to enter the palace and be the emperor's person with dignity. He was a man and could not resist being able to be with his beloved one openly.
"Your Majesty, I will follow your arrangements in everything. If you think it's good, then I think it's good too." Since he couldn't make his own choice, he would let His Majesty make the choice for him. No matter what the choice was, he would accept it.
"An Hui, don't call yourself a subordinate anymore, at least don't call yourself a subordinate on my bed." At this moment, she really felt it was a bit harsh to hear An Hui calling himself a subordinate. As for An Hui's arrangements, she actually already had an idea in her mind.
An Hui felt that he blushed more today than in all the previous times combined, "Then, what should I call myself?"
"I will make you my concubine." She would give him the title, and she thought this was what An Hui wanted, but she knew that this was not enough. "But you will still be in charge of everything in the Anbu, and you can continue to do what you want to do." She would give him what he wanted, instead of imposing what she thought was good or bad on him.
Sure enough, after An Hui heard these words, she was surprised and delighted, and asked in disbelief: "Your Majesty, is this really possible? There has never been such a precedent in the harem from ancient times to the present."
Concubines are not allowed to interfere in state affairs. Although his secret department is not in the court, his power is no less than that of the officials in the court. He has never heard of the emperor's arrangements. Although he is surprised, he is more of a disbelief.
"The lack of precedent does not mean that it cannot be done. Don't let me down." It is not difficult for her to have both the fish and the bear's paw.
However, a person will grow up and change. She loves An Hui now, but she cannot guarantee that she will have such feelings for the rest of her life. After experiencing thousands of years, she is a person who understands the magic of time, but she will cherish the feelings at this moment even more. Only by grasping the present can there be a future. What she gave An Hui was a present that could be grasped and a future that could be expected.
