"It's not even noon yet, why are you sleeping?" Fourth Master was taken aback, and as he spoke, he had already stepped into Lanqin's main room. The maids had already avoided him; at this time, none of them dared to serve Fourth Master.
“These past few days, Master has been constantly complaining of being tired. As soon as he comes back, he tells me he’s tired and wants to sleep,” Cui Niang said cautiously, observing the Fourth Master’s expression.
Sure enough, the Fourth Master frowned and scolded, "Your master is tired, why don't you let her rest more?"
Although it was a reprimand, Cui Niang accepted it willingly, knowing that Fourth Master still cared about Lanqin, which was why he was scolding her.
"It's all my fault, please punish me, Master!" Cui Niang said hurriedly.
Fourth Master didn't have time to really punish Cui Niang. He went to the door of the side room next to Lanqin's main room, waved to Cui Niang, and signaled her not to go in and serve.
Fourth Master pushed open the door and then closed it behind him.
Lanqin was not asleep. She lay on her side in bed as she had that night, listening to the Fourth Master's footsteps approaching, but she refused to make a sound.
Fourth Master walked to the bedside, looking down at Lanqin's profile, but couldn't utter a single word. He couldn't understand why he felt this way: he missed this woman terribly, couldn't accept her coldness and indifference, yet he didn't want her to control his actions and thoughts. Why did this woman in front of him cause him such inner turmoil, and why was he so unwilling to lose her?
Lanqin could feel that the Fourth Master was standing right next to her bed, but he didn't say a word.
"If you have nothing more to say, please leave. I'm tired and need to sleep," Lanqin couldn't help but say. This man is truly perplexing!
"I have something to say!" Fourth Master finally made up his mind.
Lanqin silently rolled her eyes a few times in her mind, then propped herself up to sit up, raised her hand to tidy her hair, and said, "Please speak, sir!"
Seeing that Lanqin still wouldn't even look at him, Fourth Master suddenly felt a surge of anger. He abruptly grabbed Lanqin's arm and said, "What exactly do you want from me?"
Lanqin was startled by the Fourth Master's action and frowned, saying, "Your Highness is really funny. You are the one who is going to marry your first love, yet you ask me what I want?"
"First love?" Fourth Master pondered the words, then said, "I've already said, I just don't want her to be left all alone. I won't touch her!"
Lanqin suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Fourth Master strangely, saying, "You're not going to touch her, Master?"
Fourth Master nodded and said, "Yes, Wanru is my cousin. I used to like her. But that was a long time ago. Now, when I see her, I only feel sorry for her current situation, and I also want to take care of her."
Lanqin suddenly felt that the Fourth Master's mood was very strange at the moment, as if he himself could no longer explain how he felt about Wuya Wanru.
"Your Highness, you don't need to explain to me. I have no right to interfere with whomever you choose to marry. I'm just tired. Can you let me rest for a while?" Lanqin said wearily. Ultimately, the Fourth Prince still cared for her; that's why he felt pity and couldn't bear to see her so resolutely alone. There are many ways to care for someone, but the Fourth Prince insisted on marrying her, and his promise not to touch her was just a temporary excuse to appease her at this moment!
When Fourth Master discovered that Lanqin was starting to distrust him, he angrily pulled her off the bed and pressed her close to his chest.
"What are you going to do?" Lanqin asked, held tightly in Fourth Master's arms.
"You are my woman, so why can't I hold you?" Fourth Master's eyes were filled with anger. Was he angry at himself, or at Lanqin's disobedience?
“Your Highness has more than just me as a woman. I’m not feeling well right now, so I won’t serve you!” Lanqin said, staring at the Fourth Master.
"You dare!" Fourth Master was instantly enraged by Lanqin's defiant attitude, practically spitting out the two words through clenched teeth. The few words he had just spoken to the young woman were already his limit; he had never compromised with a woman before. But now, to please this woman, to make her happy, he was actually going to compromise with her.
"I'm just tired, but does Your Excellency intend to force me?" Lanqin said, but she was a little scared inside. After all, the man in front of her was her lifelong meal ticket, and if he started to abuse her, she really wouldn't be able to resist.
"It seems I've been spoiling you too much!" Fourth Master tightened his grip, holding Lanqin firmly in his arms.
"What are you going to do, Master? Are you going to commit domestic violence?" Lanqin said timidly, but her face still showed no sign of submission. Could Fourth Master have a tendency towards domestic violence?
"I'm going to deal with you right now!" With that, Fourth Master's hands began to roam over Lanqin's body.
Lanqin thought that Fourth Master was really going to commit domestic violence, and she stared at him in fright, her lips moving as she said, "Master, a good man doesn't fight with a woman!"
"Isn't the master no longer a good man in your eyes?" The Fourth Master smiled, then he pushed Lanqin down and pressed himself on top of her.
"Master, what? What are you doing?" Lanqin was horrified to find that Fourth Master had already pinned her down on the bed.
The style changed way too fast! I can't quite get used to it!
Fourth Master was too lazy to talk to Lanqin anymore; his lips had begun to linger on Lanqin's neck.
"Master~" Lanqin pushed the Fourth Master away.
"If you don't behave, I won't show you any mercy!" Fourth Master said, pressing Lanqin's hand down on the bed.
"Sir, this is not the behavior of a true man to treat me like this!" Lanqin finally understood what the Fourth Master meant. He wanted them to make up before they got out of bed! But she was clearly very angry with him, how could she just give up like that?
"I don't need to act like a big man in front of you!" Fourth Master started unbuttoning Lanqin's undergarment, completely ignoring her protesting gaze.
"What if I refuse?" Lanqin really couldn't stand this man's chauvinistic thinking anymore.
"You have no right to refuse in front of me!" Fourth Master ripped open Lanqin's clothes and prepared to force himself on her.
"Master, you bastard!" Lanqin cried out in a final struggle.
"..." Fourth Master had already covered Lanqin's mouth with his hands and was rubbing her body all over.
Lanqin was still resisting in her heart, but her consciousness was being swayed by the Fourth Master's teasing. She tried desperately to maintain her resistance, but her body began to disobey her commands.
Fourth Master repeatedly took advantage of Lanqin, who stubbornly endured without making a sound. Seeing that Lanqin was holding back her anger, Fourth Master became even more vigorous, pushing her until she was almost crying before giving her a small, vicious bite on the shoulder.
