Chapter 27
"Kitten? Is that you?" Luo Tingshi asked tentatively.
Yu Zhi nodded heavily, "Ouch——"
Yu Zhi nodded too vigorously, and his already dizzy head became even more dizzy. He raised his hand and knocked his head, then lay in Luo Tingshi's arms and looked up at him: "Why am I so dizzy?"
In the dim tent, Luo Tingshi's extremely terrifying dark eyes were now completely icy, melting into a deep smile that splashed onto his lips, raising the corners of his tense mouth.
He lowered his eyes and looked at Yu Zhi.
The person in his arms looked up at him. From Luo Tingshi's perspective, the boy's little cat eyes seemed even rounder, and he looked very uncomfortable. His eyes were watery and he looked pitiful.
Ordinary people would feel endless pity for him if they saw this scene.
Luo Tingshi, however, developed infinite desires.
I like to see him cry, I like to make him cry...
Luo Tingshi's eyes were fixed on Yu Zhi, desire swirling in his smiling eyes.
"Ah, huh..." The feverish young man was confused and unaware of his own situation, and was still trying to burrow into his arms.
Luo Tingshi took a deep breath, lowered his head and bit Yu Zhi's lips, sucking gently until the two lips were dyed crimson again, then he let go of Yu Zhi.
His eyes scanned the boy's rosy lips.
Luo Tingshi nodded in satisfaction, looking much more pleasing to the eye.
He then explained to Yu Zhi: "Because you caught a cold."
"Ah?" Yu Zhi covered his mouth, "Then... don't kiss me again, or I'll get sick."
His voice was weak and sounded soft. Luo Tingshi touched Yu Zhi's head and asked with a smile, "But what if I want to kiss Xiaoyu?"
Yu Zhi: "We'll kiss each other again after you recover."
Luo Tingshi's eyes dimmed slightly: "Really?"
A cool breeze blew, and Luo Tingshi lifted up Yu Zhi's hot cheek, gently pressed down the flying hair on the side of the boy's face with his fingertips, slowly lowered his head, and gradually shortened the distance between them in the dim candlelight.
Their noses touched, and the boy's hot breath lingered on Luo Tingshi's lips.
Luo Tingshi tilted his head slightly, his thin lips brushing against the young man's lips, his voice sinking deeper: "After you recover, will you come to me?"
He accidentally heard some conversations between Yu Zhi and Doctor Zhang, and only then did he realize that she was not unable to have sex during pregnancy. On the contrary, Yu Zhi needed him to enter her.
They stopped at the emperor's palace every night to get food, but could not break in.
God knows how he controlled himself.
"Luo Tingshi... are you a beast?" Yu Zhi asked breathlessly. Luo Tingshi's words instantly broke through the chaos and made his dizzy head a little clearer. "I'm in this state, and you still think..."
"I am a beast."
Luo Tingshi's eyes were sincere: "I like to see you cry. I have liked it since I was a child."
"You..." Yu Zhi grabbed Luo Tingshi's collar and struggled to stand up. A big hand suddenly grabbed his forearm and pulled him into his arms.
Yu Zhi sat astride Luo Tingshi's legs, pressing his hand against his head to suppress the sharp pain, and managed to speak: "Did you scare me in the cave just to see me cry?"
Luo Tingshi's pupils shrank, and he was extremely shocked: "You knew?"
Yu Zhi lowered his head weakly, leaning on Luo Tingshi's shoulder, breathing in the cool air in small sips.
Luo Tingshi stroked Yu Zhi's thin back, was silent for a moment, and then told the truth: "It was after seeing you crying out of fear that I became obsessed with your tears."
Yu Zhi endured it again and again, and cursed: "Pervert!"
"Xiaoyu always says something I don't understand, but it must be scolding me."
Yu Zhi snorted coldly: "I'm glad to know."
The man's big hand stroked his back neither lightly nor heavily. Yu Zhi felt comfortable with the touch, and the pain in his head seemed to be much less.
He leaned into Luo Tingshi's arms and said, "Touch me more."
Luo Tingshi: "Where do you want to touch?"
Yu Zhi glared at him: "Of course it's my back, where else do you want to touch?"
Luo Tingshi looked at him innocently: "I was just asking a question, I didn't think about anything else."
Yu Zhi: “…”
He didn't have the energy to chat with Luo Tingshi. He closed his eyes and instructed Luo Tingshi: "Pet me like you would a kitten."
Luo Tingshi obeyed and slid his palm slowly down Yu Zhi's back. His eyes stopped at Yu Zhi's face. "Isn't your nickname Xiaoyu? What's Xiaomao?"
Yu Zhi's expression remained unchanged: "Father said that I was extremely thin when I was born, about the size of a kitten, and he usually likes to call me kitten."
Luo Tingshi suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
Yu Zhi was secretly shocked as he was almost exposed.
Fortunately, he was awake at this time. If he was confused by the burns, he might have told his secret to Luo Tingshi.
It's too dangerous. I have to be more careful around Luo Ting from now on.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."
Doctor Zhang walked into the room holding a bowl of medicine. Since it concerned the Holy Body, he never asked others to do it for him. He always did the picking, decocting and delivering of the medicine himself.
When he walked to the bed and saw the two people hugging each other, he handed the medicine bowl to Luo Tingshi without even moving his eyebrows.
"Please help His Majesty with the medicine."
Luo Tingshi stirred it gently with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful of medicine and brought it to Yu Zhi's mouth.
Yu Zhi glanced at the dark medicine in the spoon and said weakly, "Are you trying to make me suffer to death?"
He took the medicine bowl and downed it in one gulp. The bitterness instantly exploded in his mouth. Yu Zhi's face wrinkled up and he glared at Doctor Zhang: "Alright, alright, I've finished the medicine. Will I be able to recover tomorrow?"
Doctor Zhang raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a serious tone, "If nothing unexpected happens, your Majesty's fever will subside after tonight, but he will need to recuperate for several days."
Yu Zhi replied weakly, "I understand."
Doctor Zhang bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please rest well. I will sleep in the west wing tonight and will be available for your Majesty to summon at any time."
Yu Zhi waved his hand: "Go."
Yu Zhi felt a little uncomfortable when reading the memorials at noon, but he didn't pay attention to it. Unexpectedly, it would suddenly explode the moment he relaxed.
The disease came on so violently that Yu Zhi completely lost his energy. After taking the medicine, he just wanted to crawl into bed and rest.
He looked up at Luo Tingshi, who turned around, turned off the light, took him to bed, and said softly, "Go to sleep."
The wind was howling, and the leaves in the yard were rustling.
Yu Zhi lay in the quilt, the man stroking his back again and again. He closed his eyes peacefully and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Luo Tingshi did not stop moving, his eyes roaming around the person in his arms.
kitten?
The reasons Yu Zhi gave him were reasonable and there was nothing to doubt.
But Luo Tingshi didn't believe it.
The beauty who vanished into thin air after a brief fling, the extra little white cat that appeared in Lianchun Palace, Yu Zhi's occasional unconscious habits, the faint meowing of a cat beside his ear...
And also - the little white cat that destroyed his painting.
It is exactly the same as the one in Lianchun Palace.
Those details that he had ignored emerged one by one, and past memories were like beads scattered on the ground, strung together by Luo Tingshi with the thread in his mind.
Luo Tingshi vaguely realized that he had discovered a shocking secret.
If all this is true...
The royal family of Yu Kingdom is actually a cat demon?
No wonder Yu Zhi’s disguise was so real, and no wonder he fainted inexplicably in Lian Chun Palace that morning.
No wonder Yu Zhi, as a man, could fall in love and have children.
No wonder…
All the questions seemed to have been answered.
Luo Tingshi thought of the beautiful little white cat, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
No wonder Yu Zhi hated him so much. From Yu Zhi's perspective, he had done a lot of bad things.
"I will help you get back what I owe you."
Luo Tingshi kissed Yu Zhi and laughed softly.
It is said that humans and demons have different paths, so what if they are demons? Whether Yu Zhi is human or demon, she is still his wife.
-
After a good sleep, Yu Zhi felt much better, but he still felt lazy and didn't want to move.
He lay on the bed for a while, and Luo Tingshi walked into the room carrying a basin of water.
"Don't move. Let me wipe you." Luo Tingshi wiped Yu Zhi's cheek with a towel soaked in warm water and discussed with him, "We won't read the memorials today. Just rest in bed."
Yu Zhi: "There was no need to go. I reviewed all the memorials yesterday."
"Very good," Luo Tingshi said to him with a smile. "It was windy all night last night, and a thick layer of leaves has fallen in the yard. It's getting quite a bit colder today. Winter will be here soon, so you should stay indoors from now on and don't go out."
"Winter? There are still two or three months left." Yu Zhi shook his head. "I'm not a fragile porcelain figure. Is it really that serious?"
Luo Tingshi wiped Yu Zhi's fingers dry one by one, put them into Yu Zhi's palm, and held his hands with his five fingers through the gap.
"I don't want to see the situation last night again."
Luo Tingshi held Yu Zhi's hand and pressed it against his heart. "Xiaoyu, seeing you suffer is like a heartbreak, and I can't sleep all night. Your body is yours, and it's also mine. I must cherish and protect it, and never let it suffer any harm again."
After hearing this, Yu Zhi looked up at Luo Tingshi with disdain and said, "My body is only mine. Don't be so foolish."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Tingshi suddenly leaned forward, pried open his lips and kissed him.
Yu Zhi was stunned by the kiss. He stared at the smooth forehead in front of him with wide eyes. It took him a long time to react. He raised his hand to push Luo Tingshi away.
Luo Tingshi held Yu Zhi's hands behind his back and pressed them against the pillow. Without a word, he invaded every corner of Yu Zhi's mouth, stirring it with his clever tongue.
Yu Zhi was kissed all over inside and out.
When the man let him go, he was panting and his eyes were hazy.
"Luo Tingshi..." Yu Zhi was so angry that his teeth were itching.
Luo Tingshi's dark eyes locked onto him: "You said last night that you could kiss me after you recovered."
Yu Zhi said angrily, "Am I alright? Kiss, kiss, kiss, you kiss me all day long. It's true that I say you are my 'lovers'! Humph, you are so bold, you have repeatedly offended me. Kneel down and reflect on yourself."
Luo Tingshi knelt down in front of Yu Zhi's bed without saying a word.
Even kneeling on the ground, he still maintained his imperial majesty. He straightened his back and looked at Yu Zhi: "I have been thinking about Your Majesty for thirteen years. Now that the one I love is right in front of me, how can I resist getting close to him?"
Thirteen years?
Yu Zhi was stunned. After a careful calculation, he couldn't help but curse, "...I was only five years old at that time, you beast!"
Luo Tingshi smiled helplessly, "Your Majesty, please don't forget. I was only nine years old at that time. I did like Your Majesty, but at that time I only wanted to get you, and I didn't have any other thoughts."
Yu Zhi was silent.
All along, he regarded Luo Tingshi's words of love as lies.
No matter what, he couldn't associate the word "love" with Luo Tingshi.
He didn't want that to be true either.
Luo Tingshi loves him? This is too strange. Yu Zhi feels uncomfortable when he thinks about this possibility.
Seeing Yu Zhi remain silent for a long time, Luo Tingshi added fuel to the fire: "Your Majesty, every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart. I love you, and I only want you in this life. If you don't marry me, I will be doomed to die alone."
Yu Zhi seized on his words and said, "You were clearly still seeking 'Lu Jing' ...
Luo Tingshi smiled bitterly, "At that time, I hadn't yet reunited with Your Majesty, and I didn't know I loved you. That night, I slept with you because I saw your eyes. Otherwise, I would never have allowed myself to have sex with someone else."
"What did you say?" Yu Zhi was completely stunned.
A dark light flashed in Luo Tingshi's eyes, and his voice was slightly cold: "Many people have thrown themselves at me. Your Majesty, do you know what happened to those who tried to seduce me in the past?"
As he spoke, Luo Tingshi's voice softened, as if he was enticing Yu Zhi to ask more questions.
Yu Zhi's intuition told him that it was probably not a good thing to say.
Luo Tingshi chuckled softly, "Since these people are so eager to be fucked, I will order them to be stripped naked and thrown into the prison for adulterers."
Yu Zhi's whole body stiffened and his hair stood on end.
If Luo Tingshi hadn't recognized him, would he have also been...
Even though he knew that he could transform into his original form and escape, and that it was impossible for him to fall to that level, Yu Zhi still felt the blood flowing backwards throughout his body.
At this moment, the love in Luo Tingshi's mouth seemed to be stained with blood.
Yu Zhi suppressed the coldness in his heart, his lips and teeth trembling slightly: "What do you love about me?"
He became more and more unconvinced that such a person could love others.
Luo Tingshi raised his eyebrows: "Does love need a reason? I just love the way you cry. If I have to find a reason, maybe it's because..."
Luo Tingshi lowered his eyes and his voice gradually became lower.
"You are the only one who trusts me and relies on me wholeheartedly. You make me feel needed."
