Chapter 274: Sharing a Bed
Jiang Lin's eyes were filled with indulgence. "Okay, I'll do as you say."
So, Qin Xiangnuan deprived Jiang Lin of his ability to act, and Jiang Lin did not express any thoughts throughout the whole process.
But when Qin Xiangnuan turned around to leave, he raised his hand and grabbed the other person.
"Nuannuan, can you stay?" Jiang Lin's strength was very weak. If Qin Xiangnuan wanted to break free, it would be effortless.
However, Qin Xiangnuan didn't. She looked at Jiang Lin's wrist and saw hesitation in his eyes, as if he was also considering whether this behavior was correct.
"I'll go wash up quickly." Qin Xiangnuan suddenly spoke.
Then Jiang Lin loosened his grip, raised the corners of his mouth, and said softly, "Okay."
After everyone left, Jiang Lin rubbed his fingertips together, and the smile on his lips deepened.
After Qin Xiangnuan walked out of the door, she paused at the door for a moment before raising her feet again. Similar to Jiang Lin, a smile appeared at the corner of Qin Xiangnuan's mouth.
Qin Xiangnuan returned soon, wearing a new set of clothes that Jiang Lin had never seen before.
Looking down at his clothes, Jiang Lin laughed, "I've never felt my clothes were so cumbersome."
Qin Xiangnuan smiled and said, "I'll give you some clothes later so you can wear them when you sleep."
"Is it the same as yours?" Jiang Lin raised his eyes and asked.
These words came out without thinking. Qin Xiangnuan paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
Jiang Lin noticed that he had been smiling all night. He patted Qin Xiangnuan's side and said, "It's late. Let's rest."
Qin Xiangnuan watched Jiang Lin move outwards while talking. Seeing that he was about to fall off the bed, Qin Xiangnuan quickly walked over and stopped him with both hands, "You sleep inside."
The tone left no room for refusal. Jiang Lin's Adam's apple slid slightly, and then he moved slowly.
The candlelight in the room crackled, and other than that, the only sound was the breathing of the two people.
It sounded a little unstable, so Qin Xiangnuan turned sideways and looked up to see Jiang Lin's long eyelashes fluttering.
"You're still not used to it, right?" Qin Xiangnuan said with a smile.
After he finished speaking, Jiang Lin's eyelashes stopped moving and were completely lifted up to the top. Then he slowly turned sideways and looked at Qin Xiangnuan face to face.
"Yeah, I'm not used to it." Jiang Lin whispered, "It seems that since I can remember, I have never had the experience of sleeping in the same bed with anyone."
Qin Xiangnuan was not surprised, as every royal family should be like this.
However, because this person was Jiang Lin, Qin Xiangnuan had some other feelings.
"How do your parents treat you?" Qin Xiangnuan suddenly forgot the boundaries, but did not retract her question.
"They're very good to me." Qin Xiangnuan's question brought back many images to Jiang Lin's mind, but none of them showed the couple scolding or spurring him on. "They gave me enough... freedom."
After saying that, Jiang Lin laughed out loud.
"I heard that you spent a lot of time in the palace during your childhood." Qin Xiangnuan seemed to be dissecting Jiang Lin layer by layer, wanting to face the real Jiang Lin.
But Jiang Lin said yes and stopped talking.
Qin Xiangnuan understood that this must be a big pain. Jiang Lin's status in the imperial city was not the most honorable, but he had to bear the "favor" that did not belong to his status.
Jiang Lin's childhood must not have been easy. Was this also the reason for his restlessness this morning?
"Jiang Lin." Qin Xiangnuan chuckled suddenly, "Can I sing a lullaby for you?"
Jiang Lin felt that he was bewitched by Qin Xiangnuan at this moment. He could not say no at all and was willing to be sucked into these eyes.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep, my dear baby~" Qin Xiangnuan's voice was calm and hoarse, which was very suitable for the quiet night.
Jiang Lin didn't know when he fell asleep. When he opened his eyes, there was nothing in front of him.
The hand placed on the empty space beside him had long lost its warmth. Jiang Lin sat up and looked around, but didn't see any extra traces. It was almost the same as last night.
"Nuannuan?" Jiang Lin put his feet on the shoe and suddenly felt something different, so he stopped shouting and looked down to see how to wear it.
It was much simpler than Jiang Lin had imagined, with a clear and concise structure. After putting on his shoes, Jiang Lin was no longer in a hurry to find someone.
Jiang Lin walked straight to the wardrobe, opened the door, and saw several new clothes. The smile that had stopped last night continued.
"Are you awake?" Qin Xiangnuan stepped into the room and saw the tall figure at a glance, but the shoes under his feet were the tiger-head shoes that Qin Xiangnuan put down out of interest.
Jiang Lin turned around after hearing the voice and met Qin Xiangnuan's smiling eyes.
"I'm not feeling unwell today." Jiang Lin walked closer to Qin Xiangnuan, took the food from her hand and put it aside, staring at her with his clear eyes.
Qin Xiangnuan heard his subtext, "I'm fine now, I can work, you can discuss it with me!"
"Eat first, and tell me when you have enough strength." Qin Xiangnuan raised her eyebrows and let Jiang Lin sit down peacefully.
Jiang Lin's eyes fell on the dishes and chopsticks, then he raised his eyebrows and carefully tasted the breakfast Qin Xiangnuan made for him.
After finishing his meal, Jiang Lin was surprised to find that it was already afternoon.
"I was thinking of sending someone to find out some information, but then I remembered that Anfeng and Anliu don't speak the foreign language." After Qin Xiangnuan finished cleaning up, she sat down around the table with Jiang Lin.
On the table were hidden weapons, blade-proof clothes, wound medicine, etc. prepared by Qin Xiangnuan.
"Last night, I heard King Li was unhappy with King Cheng for attacking you. They're definitely going to compete over this," Qin Xiangnuan analyzed. "The news that you're fine hasn't spread yet. I'm afraid if it gets out, they'll all come after you."
Jiang Lin reached out and touched the dress. The texture was something he had never felt before. He turned to look at Qin Xiangnuan, "What is this?"
Qin Xiangnuan smiled without saying anything and directly handed him a short blade, "Try it and you'll know."
Jiang Lin took the knife, raised his eyebrows and looked at Qin Xiangnuan. After being encouraged by her, Jiang Lin exerted force and cut the knife across the clothes.
The blade-proof clothing was intact. Jiang Lin raised his eyebrows, glanced at Qin Xiangnuan again, and then quickly swiped it, and the result was the same.
"This is a good thing." Jiang Lin's eyes flashed. He threw the knife aside and looked at the blade-proof jacket.
"When you are going to do something dangerous in the future, put it on in advance." Qin Xiangnuan nodded in response.
Jiang Lin exclaimed in admiration, the most convenient thing was that this thing was not heavy, and it was not a hindrance even when worn every day.
"What do you want me to do?" Jiang Lin suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Qin Xiangnuan, "Nuannuan, just tell me."
If Qin Xiangnuan wanted to stir up a conflict between King Cheng and King Li, there must be a significant enough cause. After thinking about it, Qin Xiangnuan still felt that Jiang Lin was the most suitable person to do this.
"Is that all you want to talk about?" Jiang Lin said nonchalantly, "I'm fine. Not to mention they can't hurt me, even if they could, it wouldn't be a big deal."
