Chapter 28
At this point, Yu Zhi had to admit—
Luo Tingshi loves him.
Yu Zhi was extremely confused.
In his heart, love should be like that of a father and a king, where two people cherish, love, tolerate and accompany each other.
Instead of being like Luo Tingshi, who only engaged in brutal invasion and plunder.
Would Luo Tingshi, a man who would do anything to achieve his goals, allow his beloved to stay in another country?
Without a doubt, the answer is no.
Yu Zhi couldn't help but worry about himself.
Now that he was pregnant, Luo Tingshi was still hesitant and didn't dare to do anything to him. Once he gave birth to the child, Luo Tingshi might not be so gentle to him anymore.
Luo Tingshi was capable of taking him abducting him to Sheng State.
Thinking of this, Yu Zhi moved inward unnoticed.
"Xiao Yu is afraid of me?" Luo Tingshi's gaze stopped on Yu Zhi, not missing his movements, his eyes gradually deepened.
"How is that possible?" Yu Zhi retorted subconsciously.
Luo Tingshi crawled on his knees, closer to the bed. Under Yu Zhi's particularly complex gaze, he lifted up his hand, which was gripping the corner of the quilt, and held it in his palm. Unlike his own hands, which were covered in calluses, these hands, born from a life of luxury, felt delicate and soft, without a trace of roughness.
Luo Tingshi lowered his head and kissed Yu Zhi's fingertips.
The kiss was extremely gentle, like a dragonfly touching the water, and a slight itch came from the fingers, and Yu Zhi's fingertips shrank slightly.
Luo Tingshi gazed deeply at Yu Zhi and said softly, "Yu Zhi, I have a thousand ways to get you. Two days ago, Elder He suggested that I secretly attack Yu. If I unify the world, you will naturally become my prisoner and my servant. I can play with you as I please, and you will have no room for resistance."
Yu Zhi's expression changed and became paler.
Luo Tingshi gently stroked Yu Zhi's palm with his thumb, silently comforting him, and continued, "But I don't want to do this. I rejected his proposal."
Yu Zhi showed a bit of surprise on his face, and his lips parted slightly: "You..."
Luo Tingshi curled the corners of his lips and stared at him with a gentle look that Yu Zhi had never seen before: "Yu Zhi, I do want you, but I don't just want you."
He stretched out his finger and touched Yu Zhi's chest.
"I still want your heart."
Yu Zhi's heart trembled suddenly. Staring at those bottomless eyes, he felt as if he was sucked into a whirlpool. He felt dizzy and held Luo Tingshi's hand tightly.
Luo Tingshi: "Are you willing to give your heart to me?"
Yu Zhi: "I..."
Luo Tingshi stretched out his hand, placed his fingertips on Yu Zhi's lips, and said with a smile, "Don't rush to answer. Think about it slowly. I will wait until the day you agree."
Yu Zhi felt mixed emotions and didn't know what to do for a moment. He stared blankly at Luo Tingshi.
Luo Tingshi smiled and said, "I've said all this to tell you that you don't have to be afraid of me. I'm a beast you've tamed. The key to my cage is in your hands, and I'm willing to be locked up by you."
"you……"
This was the first time Yu Zhi had been confessed to so solemnly by someone, and that person was Luo Tingshi—
A man whom he hated and resented.
"Your Majesty, you are so cute." Luo Tingshi sighed, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Yu Zhi had several different meanings.
Yu Zhi's heart was filled with alarm.
Before he could react, the man's voice had already penetrated his head.
"Cute, I want to..., I want to make you... meow."
What did he hear?!
Yu Zhi immediately pulled his hand back, his sickly face flushed with shame and anger: "Luo Tingshi!"
Luo Tingshi chuckled: "Your Majesty, please stop glaring at me. The more you glare at me, the more I want to fuck you."
"You filthy scoundrel!" Yu Zhi was furious. "As an emperor, where on earth did you learn so many vulgar words?"
Luo Tingshi smiled and said, "My martial arts were taught by a man from the Jianghu. He often took me out of the palace to practice martial arts. I've been around the city for many years, so naturally I've heard everything. Does Your Majesty want to hear more vulgar words?"
Yu Zhi quickly covered his ears: "I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen!"
Luo Tingshi couldn't help but kiss Yu Zhi on the mouth again.
After a long lingering moment, Luo Tingshi released the young man who had been kissed unconsciously and said lovingly, "Your Majesty, what would you like to eat today? I'll send someone to make it for you."
After a while, Yu Zhi came back to his senses and glared at him with moist eyes: "You knew I was sick, but you still kissed me again and again. I'd better make you sick too, and kill you!"
Luo Tingshi: "If I die of illness, Xiaoyu will be left without a husband."
Yu Zhi huffed, "You are not Xiaoyu's husband!"
Luo Tingshi smiled and said, "It will happen sooner or later."
"Wishful thinking!" Yu Zhi snorted, turned his eyes away, and didn't want to talk to this man anymore.
After a moment, he turned back and asked hesitantly, "If... I agree to your marriage, you won't harm the Yu Kingdom, right?"
Luo Tingshi clapped his hands and laughed, "For the sake of Yu State, Your Majesty is willing to marry and sleep with a man you don't love. He truly is a good emperor who loves his people like his own children."
His words were really harsh, and Yu Zhi frowned.
"Don't worry, if you don't marry me, I won't do anything to Yu State. I've said before, what I want is your heart." Luo Tingshi raised his lips, his eyes cold, "Of course, if you are willing to marry me, I would be more than happy to do so."
He lowered his head and coldly kissed Yu Zhi on the forehead, and told him: "Lie down obediently, I'll go see how the medicine is going."
Luo Tingshi stood up and took a step forward when his sleeve was suddenly grabbed by someone behind him.
He turned around.
The sick young emperor looked at him with disdain, his whole body radiating a noble arrogance nurtured by gold and jade, and ordered him: "You are not allowed to be angry."
Luo Tingshi showed no expression.
The boy's voice was a little hoarse: "Don't be angry."
Luo Tingshi's eyes lingered with his for a moment before he compromised: "I'm not angry."
The boy took the initiative and wore a calm expression on his face, but his slightly curved eyes revealed the pride in his heart, just like a cat that had stolen a fish.
Luo Tingshi sat down on the edge of the bed, picked up his beloved kitten, and said gently, "Your fever has subsided, but are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"My head hurts, and my eyes hurt too." Yu Zhi said sullenly as he lay in Luo Tingshi's arms.
Luo Tingshi: "Lie down, I'll give you a massage."
Yu Zhi turned over, rested his head on Luo Tingshi's thighs, found a comfortable position, and closed his eyes.
The man's big palm fell on the side of his eyes, controlling the strength to press and rub. The warmth penetrated into Yu Zhi's eyes through his fingertips, and the soreness in Yu Zhi's eyes gradually subsided.
Apart from being in bed, Luo Tingshi is still somewhat useful.
Yu Zhi thought secretly.
-
After seven or eight days of recuperation, Yu Zhi's illness was finally cured.
He rubbed his shoulders and said to Luo Tingshi, "Help me go out for a walk."
The moment he stepped out of the door, a cool breeze blew in his face. Yu Zhi took a deep breath and smiled: "I've been lying in bed for several days. I'm almost suffocating."
As he was speaking, an autumn leaf swirled down and Yu Zhi stretched out his hand.
A yellowish leaf fell into his palm. Yu Zhi's eyes swept across the courtyard, and a few yellow spots caught his eye. He said in surprise, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and the leaves have turned yellow already?"
Luo Tingshi's eyes showed worry. "I see it's colder this year than usual. This place is different from the palace, and you're pregnant. This winter will definitely be very difficult."
Yu Zhi also sighed slightly when he heard this: "The delivery date is in December, in the freezing snow, I'm afraid they will suffer."
Luo Tingshi's heart sank, a deep crease forming between his brows. He cast his gaze upon Yu Zhi's belly, which was growing larger day by day. After a moment's thought, he said, "Your Majesty, you and I will sleep together in Xishan Pavilion for the next few days."
"Why?" Yu Zhi was puzzled.
Luo Tingshi took Yu Zhi's hand, led him slowly down the stairs, and explained to him, "I've been looking for some craftsmen to build a fire channel under the bedroom. This way, we can burn underground dragons in the winter, and you and the child will suffer less."
Yu Zhi nodded: "That's a good idea."
Luo Tingshi: "Xiaoyu, just focus on taking care of your baby. Leave everything else to me."
Yu Zhi pursed his lips and said nothing.
The autumn chrysanthemums were in full bloom as the two of them walked slowly along the path. The attendants, Imperial Physician Zhang, and the others all lived in the west courtyard and generally wouldn't bother them easily in the east courtyard.
Yu Zhi walked a short distance and felt a little tired.
Luo Tingshi picked up Yu Zhi horizontally and was about to walk towards the nearby pavilion, but when he caught sight of the small building in the middle of the lake, he suddenly changed his mind and said, "Let's go to the water pavilion and rest."
"What evil plan are you planning?" Yu Zhi looked at him sideways.
Luo Tingshi: "Your Majesty, you worry too much."
To get to the small house in the middle of the lake, one has to row a boat. Luo Tingshi carefully placed Yu Zhi in the cabin of the boat, untied the rope, and rowed towards the small house in the middle of the lake.
Every day, servants cleaned the small building, and the house was filled with warm incense. Yu Zhi walked around and lay down by the wooden window to look out.
Surrounded by water, the cottage is located in the center of the lake, not far from the shore.
If something happens here, there will be no help from heaven or earth.
Yu Zhi felt more and more that Luo Tingshi had bad intentions.
He turned around and saw the man standing behind him like a mountain. Yu Zhi's eyes swept over the man's arms and chest. The bulging muscles were almost bursting through his clothes.
This is a strong and powerful man.
Even if I lost my kung fu, I would still not be his match.
Yu Zhi raised his chin. Even though he was a whole head shorter than the man, he remained dignified and glanced at him: "Tell me, what did you bring me here for?"
Luo Tingshi said simply: "To mess with you."
Yu Zhi: “…”
She had guessed it in her mind, but when she heard the man's dirty talk with her own ears, Yu Zhi still blushed.
Yu Zhi was a little annoyed.
How come he still hasn't developed the ability to remain calm when he hears Luo Tingshi say these things every day?
Yu Zhiqing glanced at him coldly: "I don't agree, do you dare?"
Luo Tingshi stepped forward, grasped Yu Zhi's waist, and said in an ambiguous voice, "Your Majesty, do you really disagree? We haven't done it in ten days, so you don't want it?"
The aura that belonged only to Luo Tingshi captured Yu Zhi in his arms with his fangs and claws. The big palm pressing on his waist was like a branding iron, and heat waves surged up and down.
Yu Zhi's breathing quickened a little.
Luo Tingshi understood and carried Yu Zhi to the bed in the inner room.
-
The soft tent swayed slightly, and the man's low whisper was heard in the wind.
Every word was poured into the ears of the young man on the bed.
The young man was furious: "Stop talking nonsense! If you dare to say another word, you won't be able to come in today."
Luo Tingshi paused, then slowly raised his head, his beast-like eyes fixed on the crimson-faced youth. He spoke in a roiling voice, "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
Yu Zhi turned his head and said softly, "I agree to your request."
They even have children.
It's the same whether you do it once or twice, so why bother to hold it in?
Yu Zhi comforted himself in his heart.
Xiaozhu fell silent, and the man beside her fell silent. After waiting for a long time, Yu Zhi saw no movement from him, so he turned around in confusion.
Bumped into a pair of red eyes.
Yu Zhi was shocked, and the next moment, the beast pounced on him.
…
Autumn leaves fall into the lake, causing ripples.
Suddenly, the cry of a night owl pierced the center of the lake and reached the cottage.
Luo Tingshi's face changed slightly. He gritted his teeth to block out the noise and moved forward regardless of anything. The next moment, a series of howls rose into the sky.
"In broad daylight... where did this night owl come from? It's looking for you..."
The young man struggled to open his red eyelids and said to Luo Tingshi, "Go."
Luo Tingshi's face turned pale: "But——"
Yu Zhi shook his head: "This is not a serious matter. They must be looking for you for something urgent. Could it be that... you are really willing to ignore state affairs for me?"
The attentiveness of the person in front of him made Luo Tingshi more and more irritated.
They were just one step away, and it looked like they were about to...
Luo Tingshi's face was extremely grim, the veins on his forehead throbbing, the corners of his lips curved into a straight line, and he looked like an enraged lion. He lowered his head and kissed the boy fiercely, then got out of bed and hurriedly put on his clothes.
His dark eyes were filled with bloodlust.
You better have something urgent to do, otherwise...
When Yu Zhi saw him like this, he thought to himself that something was wrong. In his rage, he didn't know what Luo Tingshi would do.
Not wanting to see innocent people die, Yu Zhi called out to Luo Tingshi when he was about to step out of the door.
"If it doesn't work today, there's always another day."
Luo Tingshi's body trembled, and he strode back to the bed and kissed Yu Zhi's lips carefully.
"Wait for me."
