Mu Beichen found it strange that she remained silent for most of the day without making a sound.
This outfit was specially chosen by the official tailor three days ago. Could it have been all for nothing?
Yu Qianqian took a step closer to him and said in a light tone, "Didn't you have something to say to me? Just say it here."
Mu Beichen looked up at her with a sigh, then grabbed her wrist without saying a word and started walking. Unknowingly, they followed a winding path to a quiet and secluded place.
As they walked along, their red robes danced gracefully amidst the falling petals, as dazzling and magnificent as dragons and phoenixes in flight.
Under the bright lights, the couple strolled hand in hand through the moon gate into the garden. Before them, a layer of willow catkins covered the ground, a curtain of flowers fluttered in the air, and fireflies twinkled like stars. Not far away, a lake shimmered with blue light. The scenery here was extremely beautiful.
The night was still young, and a gentle breeze drifted from the lush flowers on the other side. Ripples spread across the lake beneath the bridge, casting a pair of reflections that swayed like a light mist, dreamlike and ethereal.
"Hmm... The moonlight is really nice tonight." Mu Beichen flicked his hair, glanced at the night sky as if nothing was wrong, and then leaned down to give her a quick kiss when she wasn't looking.
After feeling a soft, slippery object touch her, Yu Qianqian's lips went numb, and she was immediately unable to utter a single word.
She sluggishly turned her head, only to be met with Mu Beichen's roguish grin. Her nervousness intensified, and she mimicked Mu Beichen by flicking her hair, a flush rising to her beautiful face.
Mu Beichen's eyes darted around quickly, and he suddenly leaned down to face her, his voice deep and resonant, full of magnetism.
"Qianqian, your shy look is more beautiful than a celestial being."
"Hmm... beautiful as it may be, but compared to you, my husband's jade-like beauty is truly rare in the mortal world. This is the only benefit I can get from you." Yu Qianqian lifted her pretty face with one finger, glancing at the handsome man in his magnificent robes and then at the beautiful scenery of blooming flowers. She then recited a line: "The stars are as numerous as the sea, but they cannot compare to the fine day in the north. The beauty's eyes are as bright as the moon."
The beautiful woman instantly lost interest, frowned, and with a dark expression, leaned closer to ask, "So you like my face like this?"
“That’s right, this face is definitely better than your character. Besides, everyone loves beauty. Dating is not as good as dating handsome men. Instead of complaining that life is too short, I will definitely choose to enjoy the sweetness first.” Yu Qianqian responded crisply.
First, savor the sweetness...
Mu Beichen stared blankly at the sky, suddenly feeling completely unwell.
Having known each other for over a decade, he finally understood why Yu Qianqian had risked her life to save him.
He had always loved her deeply, but he never imagined that in the end, his beloved would treat him as a plaything with no heart. His ten years of deep affection had been wasted, and he had no choice but to accept it.
In fact, Mu Beichen was also quite helpless. Over the years, he had painstakingly concealed his strength from the outside world in order to save his life. In reality, he had far surpassed the talent of adults when he was young, but now he was only defeated by this beautiful face.
But for some reason, despite having so many good qualities, Yu Qianqian didn't appreciate any of them and only loved his face.
After a long while, Yu Qianqian saw that the man was still standing there motionless, stunned. Her mind raced, and she smiled wickedly: "Then, my husband, would you like to treat me even better and give me your life?"
"I..." Mu Beichen opened his mouth in a daze, but before he could finish his short sentence, he suddenly heard a soft, sweet kiss on his lips. Yu Qianqian had given him a hard kiss, like she was pulling out a cupping stick!
He stared blankly at the person who had just kissed him, looking bewildered and incredulous, completely stunned by the kiss.
Looking at her, Mu Beichen couldn't help but press his tingling lips to his own, and glared at her with feigned anger before turning his back.
Suddenly, with a burst of energy, Yu Qianqian strode forward, raised her hands sharply at Mu Beichen's waist from behind, easily pulled him into her arms, picked him up, and ran away in a flash.
Mu Beichen was immediately stunned when he came to his senses. He was actually being carried in a princess carry by a woman. This strange thing was an absolute disgrace for a man!
Ahead, amidst a series of afterimages moving with lightning speed, someone shouted wildly: "Hey! Yu Qianqian, how dare you hug this king! You're utterly outrageous!"
Yu Qianqian: "It's okay, it's not a big problem. You'll get used to it after a few more hugs..."
Mu Beichen, after a fierce and desperate struggle that proved futile, was repeatedly defeated by the tyranny of his own woman, and his fate remained unknown overnight.
