They successfully completed their wedding under the witness of the entire galaxy, although Li Xing was a little nervous sitting on the bed.
After taking a shower, Wan Ge lay down on the bed and looked at Li Xing, who was sitting beside her, and slowly said, "Go to sleep."
Then Li Xing saw his wife pull up the blanket and go to sleep.
Although they live a long life, they receive early education in certain areas. Li Xing certainly knows what a normal couple should do, but when he sees that Wan Ge seems to have no ideas, he obediently lies down and does nothing.
Listening to his dejected thoughts, Wan Ge chuckled to herself under the covers, watching him act as if he didn't care at all. If it weren't for the fact that some of his actions aligned with his inner thoughts, Wan Ge would have even begun to doubt whether hearing his inner voice was just her imagination.
…
The couple had been married for a month and lay in the same bed every day, but that was all; there were no hugs, no kisses, and no other intimate acts.
It seems like they're just sleeping together. Wan Ge often leaves early and returns late, while Li Xing doesn't seem very busy.
In fact, after the marriage, the Queen delegated even more power. Although Li Xing had not yet fully ascended to the throne, he was in control of almost the entire interstellar space.
Logically, he should be incredibly busy, but every time Wan Ge came home, he would sit quietly in the living room with a book in his hand, looking completely relaxed.
In fact, Li Xing finishes his work every day before going home, without taking a single minute of rest, all so he can go home early and see the people he wants to see.
They could only see each other very late every day.
However, every time Wan Ge returned home, he would sit in the living room for a long time, as if he was just reading a book there and not waiting for her to come back.
Their words lacked warmth and they didn't express their feelings for each other. When Wan Ge returned home, she would usually just take a shower and go to sleep.
The other party didn't argue or make a fuss, but felt a little sad every day, wondering why she came home so late and how he hadn't said much to his wife.
Wan Ge has indeed been busy with many things lately. For example, the strange beasts that her parents wiped out a hundred years ago have suddenly reappeared and are gathering in the distance. She has been preparing for this recently. Tomorrow she will go to the front line to wipe out these strange beasts again.
…
On the day Wan Ge set off, at noon, Li Xing looked at the things in his hands, his face darkening: "Why did you only tell me about the general's mission to exterminate the alien beasts after he had already set off?"
Li Xing's subordinate was taken aback: "Ah? Your Highness didn't know? This matter was discussed between His Majesty and the General. Didn't Jiang Jun tell you?"
Aren't they husband and wife? Their subordinates were dumbfounded to see them acting like such strange spouses.
Last night, Wan Ge actually wanted to tell Li Xing, but when she got home, she was too tired to talk, and he was engrossed in reading, so she thought she would tell him after she took a shower.
After he finished showering, the other person lay down on the bed, but he was still thinking. In that instant, Wan Ge knew that he was pretending to be asleep.
So she spoke to him, saying, "Your Highness, there's something I'd like to tell you."
But after saying that, the other person still didn't react, while their inner monologue was: [What does my wife want to say to me? No way! I'm not listening!]
So in the end, Wan Ge still didn't reveal that she was about to go and exterminate the alien beasts.
…
Li Xing appeared directly in front of his mother and said, "How could you let her go and exterminate the alien beasts alone? Why didn't you discuss this with me?"
The Queen raised an eyebrow, and said with some doubt, "You didn't know?"
After saying that, he sighed: "I thought you knew. Besides, she didn't go alone. He's a general with many subordinates and many warriors in space. How can you say she went alone? Don't talk nonsense."
Li Xing's hands, hanging tightly at her sides, were clenched tightly. Yes, she didn't even know he was her husband.
The Queen sighed again: "What's wrong with you two? Is there really nothing wrong with how you get along? He didn't even tell you something like this."
Putting aside the fact that he's her husband, there's also the issue of their relationship as ruler and subject. Li Xing, as a prince and the next king, didn't even know this. And Wan Ge didn't tell him either. Isn't this way of interacting problematic?
