The next morning, the group set out for Shengjing in a mighty procession.
Rong Xi originally thought that she would be left alone in a carriage, but she didn't expect that after getting on the carriage, she saw Chu Jinzhi already sitting there.
"Greetings, sir."
Rong Xi wanted to salute but was stopped by Chu Jinzhi.
"Come in!"
"good!"
The two sat in the carriage, silent all the way.
There was a small couch at the back of the carriage. Rong Xi looked at it several times and wanted to sleep on it.
The soft leather on the couch must be very comfortable to sleep on.
As she was thinking about this, she dozed off, and the bumps in the carriage almost made her fall off several times.
It was when she was about to fall out at the last moment that she was caught by Chu Jinzhi. She seemed to be dozing off from the beginning.
He was still wondering, how could she dare to doze off in front of him when she was obviously scared to death of him.
His hand caught the head that had fallen down, and the soft little face was held directly in his hands, which made him unable to help but think of the softness he touched that night.
He sat down beside her and tried to carry her to the small couch in the back.
But when his hand touched her, he saw the red mark on her neck that had not completely disappeared.
Just for a moment the scent of her body and the memory of that night invaded his brain, and he thought he was crazy, what was he thinking about someone who was sleeping.
But then he thought again, she would be his from now on, so a little touch wouldn't matter, so he gently bent down, picked her up and placed her on his lap.
He wrapped his arms around her waist, holding her in his arms.
The person sleeping in his arms arched his body, found a comfortable position, rested his head on his shoulder, and raised the corners of his mouth where he couldn't see.
"Sir, there is an inn ahead. Would you like to stop and rest? We..."
Chu Jinzhi immediately interrupted the voices outside, then looked at the person in his arms. After making sure that the person was not awake, he whispered to the people outside.
"How long until we get to the city?"
"It will probably take another hour."
Chu Jinzhi looked at the sky outside. The sunset had already appeared. If he arrived later, he would probably miss the time to enter the city.
"Let's go into the city first."
"yes!"
The carriage continued to move, and Rong Xi had actually woken up when he was first caught by him, not to mention the big movement that followed.
He just pretended to be asleep for a while and then really fell asleep, and woke up half an hour later.
Chu Jinzhi noticed the movement as soon as it happened, but he really didn't know how to tell her about the current situation.
The little girl slowly woke up and when she looked up she saw Chu Jinzhi's chin.
Her first reaction was not to be scared and leave, but to softly arch her back against his neck.
Just when Chu Jinzhi thought that the girl was not shy, the person sitting on her suddenly stood up. The movement was so fast that Chu Jinzhi couldn't hold her back. She stood up and hit the roof of the car. The person was so ashamed and painful that she held her head and dared not look at anyone.
"It hurts, come here and let me take a look."
The little girl didn't dare to go over. When she heard him say that, she quickly waved at him.
"It's okay. It doesn't hurt."
The person who said it didn't hurt was still holding his head, his face was red, not sure whether it was because of pain or shame, and there were tears in his eyes.
"come over."
The little girl heard the seriousness in the man's tone, and walked over timidly and squatted in front of Chu Jinzhi.
"Take your hands off me."
The little girl did as she was told. Chu Jinzhi found it funny, but still showed it to him.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, the person squatting in front of him made a "hissing" sound. He felt that girls were just too delicate and could not bear even a little pain.
He moved more gently, as it seemed he had hit the head too hard, and a small bump appeared on his head.
"Does it hurt?"
"pain."
The soft word "pain" reminded Chu Jinzhi of the scene that night. She had said the same thing then.
Realizing what he was thinking, he pushed the person aside.
"You're so reckless even though you're afraid of pain."
Rong Xi sat on the small couch at the back of the carriage, not daring to say anything.
I thought this person was really moody.
The carriage quickly entered the city, and they found a relatively quiet inn to stay in. This time, Chu Jinzhi even arranged a room for her alone.
Rong Xi has never come out since he went in, and dinner is always delivered to his room.
It wasn't that she was afraid of seeing Chu Jinzhi, but she really didn't want to come out. Riding in a carriage was too tiring. She needed to have a good rest because she had to continue tomorrow.
But her action made Chu Jinzhi think that she was still shy about what happened in the evening. Seeing that she didn't come out, he didn't know what she was doing in there, so he finally went to her room to check the situation.
Just as I thought, the little girl blushed as soon as she saw me.
Sometimes he wondered how such a timid and shy person could agree to the prefect's offer to seduce him. Fortunately, he met him. If he had met someone else, he didn't know what would have happened.
"Are you still used to living here?"
Rong Xi nodded obediently, and took a step back unnoticeably when he approached.
She thought Chu Jinzhi didn't see this action, but she didn't expect that after he entered the room, all her actions were seen clearly by him.
"Habit."
The little girl was defensive, as if she was afraid of what he might do to her.
A look at the sky outside showed that it was indeed dark. It was indeed not appropriate for a man to come into a woman's room, but... he felt inexplicably unhappy.
He sat down in her room. Seeing this, Rong Xi hurried over to pour him some tea and stood beside him.
"Are you afraid of me?"
"I, I'm not afraid."
"If you're not afraid, why are you standing so far away?"
The little girl thought she was hiding well, but she didn't expect him to see through her so easily. She had no choice but to take a few steps forward.
After hesitating for a long time and seeing that the person showed no intention of leaving, he mustered up the courage and spoke in a trembling voice.
"My Lord, you have to stay overnight tonight."
Her face turned even redder after she finished speaking. When Chu Jinzhi looked over, he saw that she lowered her head as much as possible, trying to make it difficult for others to see her expression.
Chu Jinzhi didn't have this idea originally, but after hearing what she said, he became interested and wanted to tease her when he saw her like this.
"What if I really want to stay overnight?"
The little girl's expression was obviously startled, but she nodded after a moment.
Then the two of them stood there in a stalemate.
"undress."
The little girl knew that he was calling her, so she walked over.
He kept his hands tightly clenched, not daring to touch the person in front of him.
"Why? No?"
"Yes, yes."
Chu Jinzhi felt uncomfortable when he heard her words. After all, men's clothes were slightly different from women's. She said she would, which made him feel uncomfortable.
But those who say they can do it don’t know how to start.
She stood in front of Chu Jinzhi, but didn't know how to untie this knot.
