Is this comfortable?
The woman turned her face away, her ears turning red, trying to ignore his embarrassing question.
When their feelings were intense, she responded to him passionately. The joy of mutual affection is always much more wonderful than that of coercion.
The next morning, when Su Yujiao woke up, she was already on a small bed in the inn, with a little dumpling next to her tilting its head and looking at her.
Su Yujiao stroked its round little head, and the little guy nuzzled against her; she absolutely adored it.
The wind outside the window grew colder and colder, but the inn was warm as spring. Lu Ziqian entered the room with a chill in his body.
The man removed his black rabbit fur gloves, gently shook his cloak, and the snowflakes clinging to his black fur coat fell softly and gently, melting into tiny water droplets.
Su Yujiao looked at him, recalling the absurdity of last night, and her face suddenly turned red.
She dared not look directly into the man's gentle, smiling eyes, lowered her head, and teased the little bundle in her arms, whispering, "Last night we..."
The man reached out and touched her flushed, hot face, asking with a smile, "Did you like that last night?"
"Doing that kind of thing in the snow is definitely more exciting than in bed."
"Next winter, I'll take you back to this place."
Su Yujiao blushed crimson and quickly stopped him from continuing to talk about these shameful topics.
"How did we get back last night? I don't remember."
"You were too tired and fainted, so I carried you back."
The woman blushed even more, and she lowered her head, unsure of what to say to ease the ambiguous atmosphere.
The man chuckled softly as he looked at her shy expression, pinched her delicate chin, and gently caressed her tender lips with his fingers. His low, husky voice was like a lover's whisper: "What are you thinking about? Your face is so red."
"Want one more time?"
These words startled Su Yujiao, who quickly shook her head. Lu Ziqian smiled and patted her head, no longer teasing her.
"Pack your things, we'll head back today."
"Um."
Su Yujiao nodded. She also wanted to go back as soon as possible and rescue her older brother.
A few days later, on the Lantern Festival, the two finally returned to the capital.
When the carriage arrived at the gates of the capital, Su Yujiao suddenly shouted, "Stop here, I'll walk back myself."
Lu Ziqian instinctively took her hand: "What's wrong?"
"Didn't we agree to start over?"
Why not go home?
Su Yujiao paused for a moment, then said, "I haven't decided yet."
"Let's talk about these things after I rescue my brother."
"You want to make a big show of it?"
"That's true. They made a big fuss when they left, but now their return is all over the place."
The man gently kissed her forehead: "I'll make arrangements when I get back. I'll make sure to bring you back in a grand and glorious way."
"I'll make up for what I owe you, little by little."
Su Yujiao didn't explain. She didn't want a grand display; she just hadn't fully convinced herself to start over with him.
"Mo Shu, first take the young mistress back to her courtyard in the east of the city."
"yes."
Upon arriving at the door, Lu Ziqian got out of the car first, then picked up Su Yujiao around the waist.
The woman blushed and quickly stopped her, saying, "No need, I can walk."
"Your legs can't bear weight yet, let me carry you."
Actually, the wound on her foot had almost healed, but he insisted on carrying her.
Xiao Tao ran out when she heard the noise and saw Lu Ziqian holding her young lady. The young lady was blushing and buried her face in his chest, too shy to be seen.
Xiao Tao's face lit up with joy; the young lady and the general had finally reconciled.
Lu Ziqian placed Su Yujiao on the bed, leaned down and kissed her forehead: "I'll come back to be with you after I finish my official business."
"You go about your business, you don't need to keep me company."
Seeing her awkward expression, Lu Ziqian still smiled and said, "Wait for me, I'll definitely come."
"No matter how busy I am, I will come to keep you company."
Upon arriving at the General's Mansion, Mo Shu drove directly into the mansion through the back gate. There were steps at the main gate, preventing the carriage from entering.
Just as Mo Shu was about to drive the carriage in, a heavily veiled woman suddenly rushed out of the alley, spreading her arms to block the front of the carriage, which startled Mo Shu, who hurriedly tightened the reins.
The carriage jolted violently, nearly throwing Lu Ziqian off.
"What happened?"
Before Mo Shu could speak, the masked woman knelt down with a thud, crying out for help: "Ziqian... no, General Lu, please save me."
"Lu Wen is a beast, he's going to beat me to death, waaaaah... I don't want to live with him anymore."
"I would rather be your slave than go back."
Lu Ziqian lifted the carriage curtain and peeked out, seeing Chen Yunniang's face covered in bruises and her eyes swollen and bulging.
The man frowned: "What's going on?"
Why did Lu Wen hit you?
Chen Yunniang cried bitterly, choking and unable to speak: "He becomes a madman after drinking. He not only acts crazy when drunk, but also likes to hit people."
“If I am even slightly displeased, he will punch and kick me.”
"Recently, he even obtained a secret drug, and he used it on me... on me, to humiliate and torture me in every way, even... even made other men with him..."
"Waaah, I couldn't bear the humiliation and accidentally killed that person."
"After killing the person, I went into hiding. Lu Wen caught me and chained me to the bed. I ate, drank, and relieved myself in the room."
"He also threatened me, saying he would report me to the authorities if I didn't obey."
"Waaaaah, he's a devil! He treated me like an animal!"
Chen Yunniang was emotional and knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly: "Ziqian, you can't abandon me."
“I saved your life, and you promised to give me a good marriage to make up for your past broken promise to me.”
“Lu Wen… is not a good match for me. He is a devil, a beast, a monster.”
Looking at Chen Yunniang's miserable appearance, Lu Ziqian frowned. How could Lu Wen be this kind of person?
At the same time, he felt extremely guilty, as he had personally pushed her into the fire.
"Get in the car."
"Go to the Orchid Garden."
It has been empty ever since he took back that courtyard.
Although Mo Shu was unwilling, he dared not disobey his master's wishes.
When the carriage arrived at the Orchid Garden, Lu Ziqian helped her out of the carriage.
"You stay here for now, I'll handle this."
Chen Yunniang grabbed his hand and pleaded pitifully, "Ziqian, can you stay with me? I'm so scared."
"If he catches me, I will die."
Seeing that she was emotional, Lu Ziqian neither agreed nor refused: "I'll help you back to your room first."
Where is your maid?
Mentioning Xiaohe made Chen Yunniang cry even more bitterly, saying that Xiaohe was still at Lu Wen's house.
She has been out for two days now, and she doesn't know if Xiao He is dead or alive. She's afraid that Lu Wen will have already beaten Xiao He to death to vent his anger.
"Mo Shu, go buy a maid, and also some medicine and food."
"yes."
"Lu Wen hit you, why didn't you go to the palace to complain to the emperor?"
"Now that you are a county princess, you can apply to enter the palace."
Mentioning this, Chen Yunniang cried even more bitterly: "At first, I thought of going to the palace to ask the emperor to make a decision."
