The two swam to the bottom of the pool together.
The icy chill seeped into her veins and meridians from her skin, and the oppressive darkness reminded Su Xuening of their first time in the icy pool.
In her past life, she was lost and helpless; in this life, she is strong yet confused; and this time, she is resolute and at peace.
He was always by her side, but her emotions were completely different each time. She seemed to feel at ease because his face became clearer and clearer.
Once she confirmed his identity and had him by her side, she no longer had any negative emotions!
Just as Su Xuening was lost in thought, Xuan Yuanzhan pulled her to the place where he used to meditate.
In the pitch-black pool, Su Xuening couldn't see anything clearly, but she seemed to recognize the place. After all, she had been here twice in her past and present lives, and she was able to find her way here on her own. Now that he had brought her here, how could she not recognize it!
Just as Su Xuening was wondering why Xuan Yuanzhan had brought her here, Xuan Yuanzhan approached her and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
His breath enveloped her, causing her to lose herself for a moment, as if she had returned to their first time, when he kissed her with the same fervor and domineering passion, only now his previous awkwardness had been replaced by his current ease!
The two embraced and kissed passionately underwater, as if there were no other people, things, or objects in the world, only the two of them.
They couldn't even see each other's faces, yet their hearts and eyes were still filled with each other!
After a long time, Xuan Yuanzhan seemed satisfied and swam up from the bottom of the pool with Su Xuening in his arms.
When the two emerged from the icy pool, all the heat dissipated.
Su Xuening has also fully recovered. She no longer feels hot and has even started to feel cold.
Xuanyuan Zhan also felt the chill, so he immediately picked up the cloak from the ground and wrapped it tightly around the person in his arms. Then, he carried her out of the cave.
"Your Highness." Outside the cave, Ye Yun and Ye Feng saw Xuan Yuanzhan carrying Su Xuening out and hurriedly went to greet him.
Upon hearing their voices, Su Xuening immediately nestled shyly into Xuan Yuanzhan's arms.
Were the two of them waiting outside the whole time?
This guy is really... He was just trying to coax her to speak!
That's so embarrassing!
Seeing the person snuggling into his arms, Xuan Yuanzhan couldn't help but smile, and then asked the two of them, "How did you get here?"
Ye Yun quickly bowed and replied, "Your subordinate and Ye Feng came by carriage, which is located at the foot of Longya Mountain."
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Zhan carried Su Xuening down the mountain.
Ye Yun followed the two from a distance, while Ye Feng went down the mountain to drive away first.
Looking at the girl still nestled in his arms, Xuan Yuanzhan couldn't help but lower his head and whisper to her earlobe, "Did you hear that? They came by car. They must have just arrived. They definitely didn't hear anything."
As soon as Xuanyuan Zhan finished speaking, his waist was pinched hard by someone's small hand.
"Cough~" Xuan Yuanzhan subconsciously groaned, then whispered soothingly, "I just set up an array outside the cave, they can't get close, they can't possibly hear the sound."
How could he allow anyone else to hear her voice? It was a heavenly sound that only he could hear.
Su Xuening took his words to heart and finally stopped pinching his waist, but she never turned her face away from his chest.
"Your Highness." Ye Yun had arrived at the foot of the mountain earlier and was waiting for them in his carriage.
Xuanyuan Zhan carried Su Xuening directly into the carriage.
Ye Yun drove the carriage towards the capital city.
"Are you cold?" Xuan Yuanzhan wrapped his cloak tighter around Su Xuening and gently brushed the wet hair from her temples.
Su Xuening then turned her face to look at Xuan Yuanzhan and shook her head: "It's alright."
Seeing that he was also soaking wet, Su Xuening frowned and said, "There are clothes in the carriage, would you like to change?"
Tonight's full moon signifies an eventful night. She anticipated that she might have to enter the icy pool to suppress the Love Flower Gu, so she had Bihe and the others prepare two sets of clothes before she came out.
Xuanyuan Zhan saw the bundle beside him and looked at her worriedly, saying, "What does it matter to a rough man like me? But you should change your wet clothes. Let me help you change."
Su Xuening's face instantly turned bright red, and she unconsciously clutched her clothes tightly: "No, it's not necessary..."
Xuanyuan Zhan was amused by her nervous appearance: "What does it matter? We're already husband and wife, and just now..."
"Don't tell!"
As if afraid of hearing something that would make her want to disappear into the ground, Su Xuening immediately covered Xuan Yuanzhan's lips nervously, and then glanced nervously at the driver's seat.
Ye Yun is outside, what does this guy want to say?
Xuan Yuanzhan understood Su Xuening's shyness perfectly. He gently kissed her palm before taking her hand and whispering, "Okay, I won't say anything."
After this conversation, neither of them brought up the matter of changing clothes again.
However, fearing she would catch a cold, Xuan Yuanzhan held her even tighter.
Su Xuening looked at Xuan Yuanzhan, then suddenly realized something and looked at him with a surprised expression.
Seeing that Su Xuening looked like she wanted to say something but was too embarrassed to speak, Xuan Yuanzhan clearly shouted outside, "Plug your ears!"
Su Xuening was quite startled by his sudden remark, and blushed as she punched him lightly.
This guy is really good at burying his head in the sand!
Outside, Ye Yun immediately did as he was told, bending down to pick a handful of wild grass from the roadside, crumpling it into two balls and stuffing them into his ears: "Your Highness, that's plugged them up."
...Su Xuening looked at Xuan Yuanzhan speechlessly.
Now look what's happened! Even if you don't do anything, people will assume you did something!
Xuanyuan Zhan, however, did not sense anything amiss. He looked at her with affection and said, "What do you want to say? Speak softly, he won't hear you."
Su Xuening glanced outside, pondered for a moment, and then whispered in Xuan Yuanzhan's ear, "Did you go to that Liyou Pavilion last night just for tonight?"
Thinking about what he had done for her tonight, Su Xuening felt a surge of heat spreading from within.
He had never been with a woman before, and suddenly he had so many tricks up his sleeve. Plus, he inexplicably went to that Liyou Pavilion last night. No wonder she connected the two things.
Xuanyuan Zhan didn't give a serious answer, but just smiled and said, "I think this Liyou Pavilion is a good place, I should go there often."
These words made Su Xuening so embarrassed that she pinched his waist again.
Can't this person be a little more serious?
Her strength didn't hurt him at all, but it made him incredibly itchy.
Su Xuening looked at Xuan Yuanzhan and suddenly blushed as if she were a mosquito, saying, "Actually, even in the first three months, it's okay to be careful."
Although this might help her satisfy her desires, he must be feeling quite uncomfortable helping her like this!
Knowing that she was thinking of him, Xuan Yuanzhan felt a warmth in his heart and tenderly kissed her forehead: "Although Uncle said we can consummate our marriage now, he also mentioned a drawback to it."
Su Xuening was stunned for a moment. There were drawbacks too?
