His lips gently touched hers, like a leaf falling on water, creating ripples. His hand lightly caressed her cheek, letting her feel his tenderness.
Jiang Chaoyu was a little uncomfortable, her eyelashes trembling slightly. At first, Zeng Chenhua gently caressed his lips, but then he held the back of her neck and intentionally or unintentionally probed her with the tip of his tongue. When her lips parted, he quickly touched her lips and teeth, intentionally or unintentionally tracing her tongue with the tip of his tongue, causing her to try to dodge several times but being hooked by himself.
Hearing her make a soft whimper, he chuckled and released her lips, his eyes fixed on her. He heard her mutter, "Shameless."
But she couldn't hide the smile on her lips as she said, "My lady, are you praising your husband?"
Jiang Chaoyu was surprised that this person would think that way, and glared at him as if she was angry, "Shameless."
But Zeng Chenhua became more and more excited as he listened, his eyes fixed on Jiang Chaoyu's lips. When Jiang Chaoyu noticed this, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, afraid that Zeng Chenhua would continue.
Seeing this, Zeng Chenhua raised an eyebrow, his smile growing wider and wider. "Since Madam has said so, then I should make it happen."
As they talked, he pulled Jiang Chaoyu's hand away, his eyes still asking if it was okay. But seeing that Jiang Chaoyu didn't stop him, he grabbed the back of her neck and looked at her with a hidden undercurrent in his eyes, a possessive desire arising from it.
He held her chin with his fingers and gently lifted her head. The room was quiet except for the sound of someone's heart pounding loudly. When she realized it, her lips were being gently pressed against his, and she was still biting her own lips.
This kiss was different from the previous one; it was filled with a strong possessiveness, as if he wanted to imprint every inch of her with his own mark. His breathing was a little rapid, and his voice was low and hoarse as he said, "Ayu, I love you."
Hearing this, Jiang Chaoyu was touched, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Zeng Chenhua kissed her lips again, stealing every breath from her mouth, making it hard for her to breathe. She pounded on his chest with her hands, hoping to get him to stop, but he only pressed harder. In the moment their lips and tongues intertwined, she felt his possessiveness.
After the kiss, Jiang Chaoyu finally felt like she could breathe again. She gasped for air and realized that Zeng Chenhua's clothes were all wrinkled from her grip. Before Zeng Chenhua noticed, she straightened them out.
Zeng Chenhua looked down at Jiang Chaoyu's movements, grabbed her hand, kissed the back of her hand solemnly, and then hugged her tightly in his arms.
"Go to sleep."
Jiang Chaoyu was caught off guard by the hug and was a little dazed. She felt that the beginning and the end were unclear. She was prepared, but then she was pulled into an embrace.
Since that's what they say, I'll go to sleep. I was tired after working all day, and when I came to my senses, I realized that my upper and lower eyelids were fighting each other, so I quickly fell asleep.
Zeng Chenhua, however, couldn't sleep. He gazed at Jiang Chaoyu's sleeping face, hoping she would remain happy. But things rarely go as planned; as the saying goes, plans can't keep up with changes.
As soon as it was light, Jiang Chaoyu woke up naturally. When she stretched, she found that the temperature beside her had already cooled down. She looked around the room with sleepy eyes and called Cui Cui over.
"Madam, it is already 9:00 AM, or as you said."
"Nine o'clock? What do you mean? Did I say that?" Jiang Chaoyu was a little confused, wondering when she had said such a thing.
However, she didn't expect to go to bed so late. Perhaps it was because the weather had gotten colder recently, and she felt a bit reluctant to leave the bed. She gently lay down on the bed, wrapped herself in the thick quilt, and whispered to Cui Cui, "Cui Cui, I'm going to take another nap. Wake me up at noon. You should go back to sleep too."
Before she got married, Cui Cui slept with Jiang Chaoyu in the winter, but now that this is the Second Prince's residence, things are different, and there are some rules to follow.
"But Madam, didn't you tell me that you would give me two different ways to tell the time?" Cui Cui was also a little confused. In the past, whenever the time was told, two different ways were given, and the latter one was taught to her by Madam. How come Madam can't remember it now?
Jiang Chaoyu listened, her brows furrowed. Logically speaking, Cui Cui couldn't possibly lie to her, so did she really say those things before?
Jiang Chaoyu felt increasingly uneasy, wondering if she had forgotten something. "What did I say?"
Cui Cui seemed to recall to Jiang Chaoyu what she had said, “You said that Zi Shi is 11 p.m., and then one Shi Chen is two hours, so you asked me to push the time to you like this.”
However, Jiang Chaoyu couldn't recall what Cui Cui had said, so she just gave a casual reply and then let Cui Cui leave.
She was imagining what was going on with her, but she forgot that the more times she used her teleportation technique, the less likely she was to experience rejection and pain. However, her vital energy was already severely damaged, and her memories gradually disappeared.
She doesn't belong to this world; she has taken over someone else's body, and her memories have been altered to include that person's earlier memories and her current life's memories. Therefore, she has completely forgotten what she said before about not belonging to this world.
Now even her master You Zhenghong, who doesn't belong to this world, is gone. No one reminds her of her identity all the time, and she herself has forgotten where she truly belongs.
Her superpowers helped her, but they also came at a price. If she continued to use them, no more than ten times, her body would be depleted, and even the best doctors wouldn't be able to save her.
However, Jiang Chaoyu did not realize this, and the future path was indeed in her hands.
When Zeng Chenhua came in, he saw Jiang Chaoyu sitting on the bed, her eyes vacant, seemingly lost in thought.
"What are you thinking about?" A voice came from beside her, pulling Jiang Chaoyu out of her thoughts. She felt Zeng Chenhua's warm hand on her shoulder, looked up at him, and asked seriously, "Was I different before? Or who am I?"
Zeng Chenhua likes her so much that he must know her identity, so she chose to ask him directly.
However, when Zeng Chenhua heard this question, his heart tightened. This question had also come up in his previous life. At that time, he suspected that Jiang Chaoyu had forgotten her original identity and revealed it, but the result was something he dared not recall now.
He paused for a moment, a smile playing on his lips, and answered Jiang Chaoyu earnestly, "You are the second young lady of the Jiang family, Jiang Chaoyu. Why would you ask such a question?"
He pretended not to know anything and asked a question. It seemed that the lady had realized her identity earlier than in her previous life. The storyline seemed to have sped up again. Although he had been reborn, everything seemed to be out of his control.
Now, all he wants is to protect his wife, even if she hates him in the future.
Looking into Zeng Chenhua's earnest eyes, Jiang Chaoyu thought that perhaps she was overthinking things, or perhaps she was just too tired and had forgotten those things. Maybe she had just forgotten what she said. "It's nothing, I just suddenly wanted to know how much you know about me."
Upon hearing this, Zeng Chenhua replied sincerely and directly: "I know you are the second young lady of the Jiang family, a member of the Crescent Moon Gate, and my wife."
His final words were formal and sincere, making Jiang Chaoyu a little embarrassed. Her stomach growled first, and she realized she was a bit hungry.
Upon hearing this, Zeng Chenhua quickly stood up. "Are you hungry? Wash up and I'll take you to get something to eat. I'll be outside. Call me when you're done."
"good."
Perhaps she was overthinking things. No, Jiang Chaoyu seemed to have thought of something else. She couldn't rule out the things that made her suspicious, including her own identity.
She suddenly realized something very strange: she only knew that she had superpowers that she could use, but she seemed to have no memory explaining where her memories came from.
Zeng Chenhua must be hiding something from me. I must find out the truth and not let any clue slip by.
"I'm all better now, let's go."
She changed into a thicker outfit, which seemed to have been made by a tailor at Zeng Chenhua's request. It looked quite nice, and it was her favorite purple color. She wasn't very good at styling her hair, and she had just sent Cuicui back to bed, so she casually braided her hair, which gave her a relaxed and beautiful look.
This was the first time Zeng Chenhua had seen Jiang Chaoyu so relaxed. Her face was beaming with a smile, like the warm winter sun. Her eyes were full of laughter as she gently and naturally took Zeng Chenhua's arm. A strand of her hair was not yet braided, and the wind blew it to Zeng Chenhua's face.
Even though it touched my face, it tickled my heart.
"good."
The arm that was being held remained still as Jiang Chaoyu held it, as if afraid that if it moved, Jiang Chaoyu would stop holding it.
Seeing Jiang Chaoyu smiling so happily, I couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so happy today?"
"Because of you," Jiang Chaoyu replied casually, which made Zeng Chenhua overjoyed, and he immediately stole a kiss on Jiang Chaoyu's cheek.
Jiang Chaoyu hadn't reacted yet. It wasn't until Zeng Chenhua's lips left her that she stared wide-eyed at Zeng Chenhua, who was smirking in front of her. "What are you doing?"
She let go of the hand that was holding hers and turned it over to cover her face.
"I'm so happy, I can't help it." He pulled Jiang Chaoyu's hand over, placed it on his arm, and then led her on as they continued walking.
Jiang Chaoyu looked around to see if anyone was watching, and only relaxed after finding no one. She then patted Zeng Chenhua's back and said, "Don't steal a kiss from me, there are people outside!"
Zeng Chenhua's smile remained unchanged. He pulled her forward without looking back and replied, "Does Madam mean that a kiss in the room doesn't count as stealing a kiss?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chaoyu felt that Zeng Chenhua was just talking nonsense, "You're just using a fallacy to change things up."
"No, it was clearly Madam who spoke first."
Jiang Chaoyu was a little annoyed by his words, and then gently patted his back. The force wasn't very strong, but it actually felt good for Zeng Chenhua.
"snort."
Considering that Jiang Chaoyu had just gotten up, she would probably feel uncomfortable in her stomach if she ate spicy food, so she only made a bowl of porridge.
However, seeing only a few vegetable leaves floating on the bowl of porridge, Jiang Chaoyu lost her appetite even more. She gently picked up a vegetable leaf with her chopsticks and said to Zeng Chenhua, "Is there no money left in your household?"
These words amused Zeng Chenhua. "You could say the Prince's residence has no one, but it still has money. Because you just got up, we made it rather simple."
But Jiang Chaoyu couldn't bring herself to drink it at all. "How about I wait for the lunch?"
“No.” Zeng Chenhua was still worried about Jiang Chaoyu’s stomach; she would get stomach aches if she didn’t eat on time.
Since Zeng Chenhua had said so, I might as well not let him down. I drank it all in one gulp, and because I drank it too fast, I finished it in a rush.
"Drink slowly."
Jiang Chaoyu waved her hand, "It's okay, I've finished drinking."
With nothing to do in the mansion, Jiang Chaoyu was a little bored. She stood by the pond watching the fish swim around, sometimes to the east, sometimes to the west. If anything accidentally fell into the pond, it would frighten them and make them dart around in panic.
"Madam, the Emperor has sent an imperial edict!" Cui Cui rushed to Jiang Chaoyu's side.
