Chapter 18
In the thick, impenetrable darkness of the night, his wife's voice carried a hint of shyness that was more alluring than during the day, stirring his heart.
Shen Rang's thoughts stirred slightly, but he quickly suppressed them again.
"I'm tired today, I should rest early."
Shen Rang went straight over and lay down, not giving her a chance to speak.
Yunxi blinked.
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
However, this man is always completely irrational in bed, and she can't expect him to discover anything extra. She can only focus her efforts on his usual routine. It's good that he's like this now, so she can get more rest.
Since Chen Rang was still awake, Yun Xi naturally couldn't leave, so she also lay down on the bed.
Shen Rang showed no outward expression, but was inwardly puzzled.
Yun Wan had such a look on her face in the dining room today, so why is she being so easy to talk to now?
He told her to rest early, and Yunwan really didn't say a word and just obediently lay down.
The bed curtains were drawn, isolating this space from the outside world.
The woman's sweet fragrance wafted over him without him even realizing it.
Yun Wan usually uses expensive perfumes and powders, but even the best-smelling ones always have a touch of artifice. However, the scent around her now seems to be more like a natural floral fragrance, elusive yet lingering, and much more pleasant than the perfumes and powders.
This taste was familiar to him.
The taste was the same on their wedding night and every intimate night thereafter.
It must have been after Yun Wan had bathed, washing away the heavy perfume and revealing her natural fragrance.
--wrong.
He had smelled the same scent elsewhere as well.
Shen Rang suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the woman beside him.
The night was as dark as ink, and the woman's face was hidden in the shadows, so he couldn't see it clearly.
Shen Rang frowned slightly.
"...Didn't Madam say that she was eager to have children for the Marquis's family?"
The woman hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Isn't my husband tired?"
"Madam's matter is more important."
As she spoke, Yunxi noticed the person beside her moving closer to her.
She secretly rolled her eyes.
That bastard has absolutely no self-control in bed.
She turned to the side, reached out and wrapped her arms around the man's neck, about to make a move, but the man beside her simply held her body in his arms, his large hand lingering and caressing her lower back, but he never made any further move. Yunxi bit her lip and softly called out "Husband".
Shen Rang hummed in agreement.
The woman in his arms had such a slender waist that he could grasp it entirely with one hand.
After a long silence, Shen Rang suddenly released her and sat up from the bed: "I have just entered the Hanlin Academy and have many things to do. Madam, please rest well."
Seeing him get up and start dressing, Yunxi was stunned and stared blankly as he dressed and left.
What kind of show is this?
The bedroom door was closed, and Yunxi got up and went to the side room, where she met Yunwan, whose face was extremely pale.
She glared at Yunxi, her eyes so venomous they seemed to want to skin her alive: "I told you to lie in the same bed with the prince, and you can't even do that? What use are you to me!"
There was no sound from inside the room for a long time, but it was even more unbearable for her than when there was a lot of noise.
She had already paved the way for Yunxi to this extent, yet Yunxi still managed to tell someone to leave!
Yunxi seemed unable to withstand the pressure and knelt down with a thud, her body trembling slightly: "The young master said that he has just entered the Hanlin Academy and has many things to do, so..."
"waste!"
Yun Wan kicked Yun Xi in the shoulder, and Yun Xi's body immediately fell backward uncontrollably.
Seeing her disheveled state, Yun Wan felt her anger subside somewhat and got up to leave.
Yunxi pursed her lips, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
