Xiao Tang didn't care how fake her acting was; all she cared about was not being asked about the dangers of childbirth again.
This villain just knows how to lead her to such dangerous places.
[Quickly...quickly leave me here, and then just walk past me indifferently.]
I just want to lie flat and be a corpse.
Xiao Tang discovered that every time she wanted to do something, this villain would contradict her.
Several times she wondered if this man could read minds.
Otherwise, how would I know to go against her ideas?
A cool breeze descended.
Xiao Tang felt herself being lifted up horizontally in someone's arms.
"Is the princess really getting mischievous?" the man snorted. "The floor is cold, don't be so silly."
After saying this, he carried her to the bedchamber.
Xiao Tang: "..."
This isn't the reaction she wanted.
What's wrong with this man?
She racked her brains but still couldn't figure it out.
Even so, it was still quite warm to lean against Di Jingling's broad chest.
until……
She was thrown onto the jade bed.
A chill instantly swept over me.
Startled, she jumped up.
Her eyes were blazing.
She had just mistakenly thought the man would show a gentle expression, but now it seems she was overthinking it.
"What's wrong, Your Highness? You're not dizzy anymore?"
"..."
[With the way you threw it, how could I possibly faint?]
She reached out and touched the cold jade bed, and shivered.
"Husband, it's getting cold, shouldn't we... put on the mattress?"
She was worried that the man might sleep so coldly that he would freeze into an ice sculpture by tomorrow morning.
Di Jingling glanced at her sideways and stared at her for a long while.
Xiao Tang was puzzled.
"If I change the bed, will you come to warm it for me every day?"
This rhetorical question left Xiao Tang speechless.
She exclaimed "Ah!"
"Don't worry, you're still too young." Seeing that although she looked blank, her eyes were full of wariness, he only made a few teasing remarks.
This girl can be so adorably innocent that you just want to tease her, but at other times her guarded demeanor is incredibly infuriating.
Di Jingling's words naturally made Xiao Tang lower her guard a bit.
Although she has recently made some deliberate appearances to block the villain's path, she has mostly been sleeping at Qingxin Courtyard.
Ruyi and I squeezed into one bed.
It's getting cold, and sleeping in a small bed is actually quite warm.
Xiao Tang glanced at the cold jade bed and said hesitantly, "Husband, this bed... my weak body seems unable to bear it, perhaps... let's just forget about it."
She chuckled and quickly got up.
"Oh dear, it's getting late. I still need to go to the pharmacy. I won't disturb you any longer."
He ran out of his house.
Forget about warming the bed or having a baby!
The villain's behavior today makes one wonder...
Winter is coming, but spring isn't far behind.
Xiao Tang never expected that she would have such a comfortable night sleeping with Ruyi, but today—she actually got a stiff neck!
Holding her aching neck, Xiao Tang found it difficult even to turn her head.
Ruyi was terribly worried when she saw Xiao Tang in such distress.
"Your Highness, I really didn't mean it. I'll go find a doctor for you."
"After we find a doctor, he'll give you a few acupuncture treatments, and you'll be fine."
Xiao Tang was speechless. "Are you stupid? I'm a doctor myself."
"Ah..." Ruyi expressed her doubt.
She had never actually seen Xiao Tang treat illnesses; she only knew that Xiao Tang owned a pharmacy.
I do know a little about the Regent's antidote.
"But... Your Highness, a doctor cannot heal himself."
Ruyi is absolutely right.
Xiao Tang rubbed her neck in annoyance. "It's alright."
She asked the system for a gua sha tool and sat in front of the mirror to perform gua sha on herself.
Ruyi came in and put something down. She was surprised to see Ruyi doing gua sha.
She said mysteriously to Xiao Tang, "Your Highness, I saw that the Regent changed his bed today."
"Change the bed? What kind of bed?"
Xiao Tang stopped moving.
His eyebrows twitched slightly upon hearing this.
"The steward said that it seems to be a large bed specially prepared to take care of you, and the prince even specially instructed that it be made a little softer."
The more I listened, the stranger it seemed.
What do you mean by "in order to take care of her"?
She put down the gua sha tool in her hand, got up and went to the regent's bedroom.
Looking at it now, it really is true!
The jade bed is gone!
Instead, there was a soft and large bed.
The steward was instructing the guards and servants to make preparations when he turned his head and caught a glimpse of Xiao Tang's astonished expression.
He approached with a smile, "Your Highness, this was all ordered by the Prince."
Xiao Tang chuckled.
Has the main villain really become strange lately?
My mind was wandering, and I suddenly shuddered.
She had a feeling that things weren't going well.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" the butler asked, puzzled. "You don't look well."
Xiao Tang forced a smile and turned to go elsewhere.
The moment she turned around, her smile vanished, replaced by a look of sullenness.
As night fell.
Xiao Tang was still standing in Ruyi's room, staring at the small bed, conflicted.
Ruyi could tell she was struggling with her inner conflict. "Your Highness, the Prince is definitely still waiting for you."
"Ruyi, what are you thinking about?" She glanced at Ruyi.
Ruyi has clearly misunderstood.
She gave an auntie smile.
Xiao Tang rubbed his forehead, speechless.
