"Oh? What did he say to you?"
Xiao Ye said somewhat awkwardly, yet also eager to know what had happened that made her so happy to mention Xiao Churen.
Su Liluo was only thinking about the pleasure of having tricked Xiao Churen and didn't notice Xiao Ye's change.
She smiled and said, "He said he wanted to apologize to me. I tricked him out of several boxes of apology gifts, which should be delivered to my residence by tomorrow at the latest."
Did they trick Xiao Churen?
Xiao Ye was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected it to be like this, and the sour feeling in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot in that instant.
His princess seems to really enjoy swindling other people out of their money. Last time it was the Su family, and this time it's Xiao Churen. Neither of them has gotten away with it.
Thinking of this, a slight smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
Do you like gold and silver jewelry?
Suddenly, Xiao Ye looked up and asked again.
He thought for a moment and realized that he hadn't given Su Lilu any gifts since she married into the family.
At that time, in order to lull Consort Liu and the others into a false sense of security, he allowed the servants to bully him, and he had already transferred the property in the mansion himself.
When Su Liluo married into the family, she thought she was very poor and kept using her dowry to help the Crown Prince's residence.
He had never done anything for her, so thinking about it, he felt he should give Su Liluo something.
"ah?"
Su Liluo was stunned by the question. What kind of question was this?
Who doesn't like gold and silver jewelry? Who would turn down money?
Su Liluo didn't consider herself that aloof. After a moment of hesitation, she said frankly, "I'm a human being. I need to eat and live. Of course I like gold and silver jewelry. I can never have too much."
A smile appeared in Xiao Ye's eyes. "Alright, then I'll give you a gift tomorrow as well."
Su Liluo: "......."
This surprise shouldn't come too suddenly!
She was delighted to hear that Xiao Ye was going to give her a gift.
Afterwards, Su Liluo went to Xiao Ye's courtyard and had dinner with him.
The servants in the courtyard were genuinely happy to see the Crown Prince and Crown Princess getting along so well.
Especially Ranmei, who was initially heartbroken for her young mistress when she saw her marry the disabled crown prince.
Later, for some reason, the young lady said that she had learned medicine. After she secretly went to the northern region with the prince and returned, the prince's leg was healed.
Seeing things as they are now, Ranmei is genuinely happy.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, would you like me to arrange for someone to prepare a bath for you?"
After Su Liluo and the others finished their dinner, they sat down in the courtyard and chatted for a while. Suddenly, Ranmei stepped forward and asked a question.
"Bathing here? This is His Highness the Crown Prince's courtyard!"
Su Liluo said with a hint of surprise.
"Your Highness, you and His Highness the Crown Prince are already married, you two..."
Ranmei didn't say what she was going to say directly, but everyone who heard it understood.
She and Xiao Ye have been married for several months and are husband and wife.
This couple should have lived and eaten together, but she had not yet consummated her marriage with Xiao Ye.
Ranmei is subtly reminding them that they should consummate their marriage in various ways.
Su Liluo blushed instantly.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye's face flashed with embarrassment. Ever since Su Liluo married into the family, he had been dealing with a constant stream of matters and had not even considered consummating their marriage.
Marrying Su Liluo was originally an accident. His people found out that Su Wanshi was having an affair with the Prince of Chu. He thought the Su family would break off the engagement, so Su Liluo's marriage was completely unexpected.
Thinking back on how much Su Liluo had helped him during this time, he had long since placed his complete trust in her.
But if we're going to consummate the marriage...
He paused for a few seconds, took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that this was something that should be taken for granted.
She has already married me, we've gone through the wedding ceremony, and we are a lawful couple—that's an undeniable fact.
Most women in this world hope to marry a good husband. She has sacrificed so much for him, he can't let her live a life of widowhood and be ridiculed by others, can he?
After figuring it out, Xiao Ye coughed awkwardly twice.
Then he instructed the servants, "Go and prepare water!"
Su Liluo suddenly felt nervous.
This...this is way too fast!
She...she hasn't seriously thought about this question yet!
She glanced at Xiao Ye, only to see that he remained calm and composed, his expression unchanged.
He sighed inwardly, thinking, "Men really are more shameless!"
However, after calming down, she still didn't refuse.
Anyway, she's already married to the Crown Prince, so consummating the marriage is just a matter of time. She genuinely intends to spend her life with him, not just marry him in name only.
She tried to comfort herself, and gradually felt much better.
Ranmei was overjoyed to see that her master had not refused.
With a delighted expression, she enthusiastically arranged for the people in the backyard to boil water.
After a long while, the water was ready. Su Liluo went to take a bath first. With Ranmei's help, she changed into a nightgown made of silkworm silk and went to the inner room to wait.
She sat nervously on the bed, looking at the shadow on the screen in the outer room.
Xiao Ye stood tall and imposing like a pine tree, his handsome figure reflected on it, and the dripping water seemed to tap on his heart.
After a while, Xiao Ye finally finished bathing in the outer room. He only wore a bra from the waist down, revealing his well-defined abdominal muscles.
Xiao Ye's skin was neither fair nor dark, but rather a wheatish color, which made him appear even more alluring under the candlelight.
His hair was tied up high, a few drops of water fell from his cheeks, his eyelashes were long and thick like butterfly wings, and his upturned phoenix eyes were as dazzling and beautiful as stars.
His thin lips were pressed tightly together, and he was actually a little uneasy.
The room was as quiet as a pin drop, making Xiao Ye's approaching footsteps all the more distinct.
"Husband, my husband."
Su Liluo called out somewhat haltingly, and under the influence of the atmosphere, her voice was several degrees gentler than usual.
The woman's shy yet gentle voice reached Xiao Ye's ears, causing his heart to tremble.
"Um."
Xiao Ye responded indifferently, then sat down on the bed.
A faint, delicate fragrance wafted from the woman, subtle yet incredibly alluring.
He watched as Su Liluo's fair cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and his initial unease suddenly turned into a feeling of joy.
He's a man; he has to take the initiative in this matter.
So, Xiao Ye approached Su Liluo, reached out and lifted her chin, looking at her with tender affection.
He pursed his thin lips slightly, "We're already husband and wife, don't be afraid, this is just a normal thing between husband and wife."
Su Liluo met his gaze, nodded slightly, and blinked.
Her long hair cascaded down her back, her small face was delicate and tender, and in the flickering light, her tightly pursed lips, made of nervousness, looked like a cherry that had been bitten.
It's tempting to taste.
Almost instantly, Xiao Ye could no longer suppress his inner desire.
He suddenly lowered his head and kissed her.
The movements appear fierce, but are actually gentle.
The bed swayed and creaked slowly.
