The two were silent for a moment.
The room was so quiet that the only sound was the falling snow outside.
Xiao Jiuchen's voice sounded softly: "Jiaojiao, don't you believe me?"
"I don't believe it." Luo Qingqing nodded truthfully, "Xiao Jiuchen, if you want to wait, then wait."
According to Xiao Jiuchen's previous personality, he would push her away after a while.
She didn't need to do anything, just wait, and Xiao Jiuchen would naturally let her go.
Xiao Jiuchen could only smile bitterly.
Luo Qingqing said: "You go back, I want to go to bed..."
Xiao Jiuchen forced a smile and said, "Go to sleep, I won't disturb you."
Luo Qingqing felt relieved after getting his guarantee.
She was really afraid that he would bully her again.
She got into bed, drew the curtains, lay down and closed her eyes.
Although she closed her eyes, her ears were always perked up, listening to the movements in the house.
She was afraid that Xiao Jiuchen would go crazy again and jump onto her bed and force himself on her.
Luo Qingqing waited and waited.
She couldn't hear Xiao Jiuchen getting up and walking.
He didn't move away, nor did he move closer to her.
Luo Qingqing opened her eyes and looked.
Xiao Jiuchen was still sitting facing the window, his tall and majestic figure outlined in the moonlight like a mountain standing in the room.
He remained motionless, his head slightly lowered.
The back figure actually looked a bit lonely and desolate.
Luo Qingqing sat up suddenly and asked unhappily, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Jiuchen turned his head to look at him with a slight smile on his face, "I can't sleep even if I return to the palace, so I might as well stay here and watch over you."
Luo Qingqing was speechless for a while.
In the past two days, she has witnessed Xiao Jiuchen's rogue behavior.
She snorted, "Then you stay here."
She lay down with her back to him, out of sight and out of mind.
At some point, she fell into a deep sleep.
Xiao Jiuchen smiled, twisted his body and sat facing the bed curtain, staring at the tightly covered curtain, as if he wanted to see his beloved Jiaojiao through the layers of curtains.
Luo Qingqing woke up in the morning and found that Xiao Jiuchen had left at some point.
She touched the chair that Xiao Jiuchen had sat on for some unknown reason and found that it was still warm. It was obvious that Xiao Jiuchen had really sat there all night.
Her heart couldn't help but beat violently, but she quickly suppressed it.
She washed up and had breakfast as usual and started her normal day.
From then on, Xiao Jiuchen would sneak into Luo Qingqing's yard late every night.
Every time he came, he no longer disturbed Luo Qingqing.
He would just bring some fun things on a whim and put them on the table, sometimes leaving a little note.
The contents of the note were mostly things he wanted to share with Luo Qingqing.
"Jiaojiao, I'm on annual leave recently, so there aren't that many memorials to review, and I don't have to attend the morning court. I'm a bit free, and I miss you especially during the day, but I can't sneak over to your house."
"The Queen Mother held a family banquet in the Imperial Garden today. All the women who entered the palace came. I didn't even glance at them. It would be better if you were by my side."
"The Queen Mother reminded me to consider the royal heir, but when I see the women in the harem, I feel disgusted. I still miss you. When will you be willing to give me a title?"
"Sun Xiaomiao, who liked you before, is pregnant. She married Xiao Shuang, and I ordered people to give them a lot of gold, silver and jewelry."
.......
The gadgets Xiao Jiuchen brought were of all kinds and varied.
A sword, some food, some jewelry, some rare books...
These were all things he thought Luo Qingqing would like.
Every morning when Luo Qingqing woke up and saw these things, she would hide them in a hurry.
There were eight maids serving in her room, and they served her wholeheartedly and attentively.
The inexplicable appearance of these things in her house would definitely arouse their suspicion.
If they asked, she would be at a loss for words.
Luo Qingqing burned the notes left by Xiao Jiuchen after reading them, leaving no trace.
But on the morning of the eighth day of the New Year, she saw the news about Sun Xiaomiao, and couldn't help but wait for Xiao Jiuchen in the middle of the night to ask him something.
Sun Xiaomiao mistakenly thought he was a man and even wanted to give her a heart-inducing drug to make her marry her.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jiuchen drank the medicine, and she lost her innocence.
Although she was angry at Sun Xiaomiao's inappropriate behavior, she did not understand these things.
But after hearing the news about those people in Jiuyou Mountain Village, she couldn't help but care about them.
She lay in bed, forcing herself to sleep until midnight.
With a creak, the door to the inner room opened.
Luo Qingqing sat up immediately.
In the moonlight outside the window, Xiao Jiuchen's tall figure walked in gently.
He placed the mass on the table and adjusted his chair to face the bed curtains.
He supported his head with one hand and looked at the bed curtains casually.
Hidden by the layers of bed curtains, he did not notice that Luo Qingqing was sitting in the bed.
Luo Qingqing suddenly lifted the bed curtain and asked, "Is Sun Xiaomiao also in the capital? Who else from Jiuyou Village has come to the capital?"
When Xiao Jiuchen suddenly saw Luo Qingqing's face, the one he had been thinking about day and night, emerging from behind the bed curtains, he was stunned for a moment with surprise.
It took him a long while to react.
He took a few steps to the bed, leaned over, and looked at Luo Qingqing with shining eyes, "Jiaojiao, you're not asleep? Are you waiting for me?"
Luo Qingqing rolled her eyes beautifully.
The light in Xiao Jiuchen's eyes dimmed.
He soon became cheerful again.
He pointed to the pile of things on the table and said with a smile, "I brought some wine. It was sent from the Moon Country. It's very sweet. I'm sure you like it. Would you like some?"
