Chapter 20
As the wife of the third prince of the Southern Frontier, Rong Rong's daily life consisted of nothing but eating, drinking, and having fun.
Simple and happy, I'm joyful most of the time, but occasionally when I'm alone and quiet, I feel a sense of emptiness and unease, as if I've forgotten something important.
Whenever this happened, Li Tianyi would gently comfort her, telling her not to worry, that she was just sick and that her lost memories would naturally return once she recovered.
Although Rongrong was still somewhat uneasy, with her lover's care and consideration and daily companionship, she gradually had less time to worry about these things.
But... she didn't understand, how could a prince be so idle? Spending all day in the mansion with nothing to do?
Rong Rong didn't ask, how could she understand that with a wife as beautiful as a fairy at home, what man would have the heart to do anything else, and could resist not going home?
Despite her inner grumbling, Rong Rong was still very happy to be with Li Tianyi every day.
At this moment, Li Tianyi was with Rong Rong in the small garden of the prince's residence.
Li Tianyi lay on the bench in the pavilion for a nap, while Rong Rong held a brush and wrote and drew on paper.
Recently, Rong Rong has been pestering Li Tianyi to teach her calligraphy and painting.
Rong Rong was very serious and insisted on writing and painting every day.
Finally, today's task was completed. Rong Rong put down her pen and admired her masterpiece.
After admiring it for a while, she looked up as if to call Li Tianyi over to take a look, but before she could speak, Rong Rong paused, her eyes darting around, and suddenly she broke into a big smile.
Rong Rong picked up her pen again and tiptoed quietly toward Li Tianyi.
Li Tianyi was sleeping soundly. Normally, as a martial artist, he would be awakened by the slightest sound.
But the days of living in comfort had made Li Tianyi much more relaxed.
Especially when he was by Rong Rong's side, Li Tianyi was so deep in his sleep that he couldn't be woken up.
"Husband!" Rong Rong called softly. After confirming that the man was really not awake, she smiled slyly, picked up her paintbrush, and began her self-created body painting.
First, they drew and painted on Li Tianyi's face, turning him into a cat with a smeared face. Then they painted his neck and chest.
"Clothes are such a nuisance," Rong Rong said with a pout, roughly tearing open Li Tianyi's collar.
"Let's draw a little turtle," Rong Rong said, lightly touching her brush. With a few simple strokes, the little turtle appeared before her eyes.
"Hmm, not cute enough!" Rong Rong frowned. No, no, I have to redraw it!
Rong Rong was wiping her hands haphazardly, having a great time, when suddenly a large hand grabbed her wrist tightly.
"Ah!" Rong Rong exclaimed, looking up to meet Li Tianyi's dark eyes.
Unlike his usual gentle demeanor, Li Tianyi's eyes now held a dangerous warning.
"You promised to teach me, but you were sleeping! It's all your fault!" Rong Rong struck first, tilting her head back like a proud little cat.
“Mistakes must be punished, and I’m just punishing you!” Rong Rong put one hand on her hip, brandishing her paintbrush, tilted her head, and raised the corners of her eyes. “Perhaps you don’t like this, and prefer sleeping in the study?”
Li Tianyi sensed something was wrong and quickly released Rong Rong's wrist, lying down obediently. A gentle smile appeared on his lips. "Madam, I was wrong. I'll paint for you, I promise I won't move!"
"Hmph, that's more like it!" Rong Rong put away her paintbrush and began to give instructions, "Lie down!"
"Put this hand behind your back! Put this hand to the side!"
"Take off your clothes too!"
Rong Rong became increasingly demanding, but Li Tianyi always complied, which made Rong Rong feel quite smug.
In the past, Li Tianyi had always been very strict with her, forbidding her from eating certain foods because he said they were unhealthy, forbidding her from going out because he said it was dangerous, and always forcing her to take medicine.
Today, Rongrong has decided to get back everything, including the principal and interest!
Rong Rong frowned, her face contorted with anger, giving off a look that said, "I'm very angry, and you can't appease me," as a warning to Li Tianyi to behave.
As expected, Li Tianyi behaved himself. Rong Rong swung her paintbrush left and right, and soon her chest was covered with paint.
Fortunately, it's summer, so even with my clothes open, I won't feel cold.
Just brushing a brush across the skin can make you incredibly itchy.
Li Tianyi tried his best to endure, but he would still subconsciously try to avoid it.
Every time this happened, Rong Rong would slap him and yell, "Don't move!"
A sharp cry rang out, and now my ears are itching too...
Li Tianyi endured the pain, but Rong Rong found pleasure in it.
She discovered a way to severely punish Li Tianyi: she would paint a lot of pictures to tickle him to death.
Rong Rong steeled herself and began to rub her small hands haphazardly on Li Tianyi's chest, trying to erase the drawings and redraw them. Next time, she would draw more slowly.
Hmph, thinking of Rong Rong, her eyebrows curved and a big smile appeared on her lips.
Suddenly, Li Tianyi reached out and stopped Rong Rong's actions, but Rong Rong, who was in the middle of her excitement, was unwilling to comply.
"Don't move!" Rong Rong slapped Li Tianyi's hand hard.
Li Tianyi had no choice but to withdraw his hand. Rong Rong continued wiping, but just as she was getting into it, Li Tianyi's large hand reached out again and covered her chest.
"I told you not to move! If you move again, I'm ignoring you!" Rong Rong looked up angrily, meeting Li Tianyi's reddened eyes directly.
Those eyes held a mixture of forbearance, helplessness, pleading, and a terrifying heat and danger.
"Rongrong," Li Tianyi sighed softly, "Don't be so cruel to me."
As he spoke, Li Tianyi pointedly glanced at his chest, where Rong Rong's small hand was resting on his muscular chest, creating an incredibly intimate scene.
Suddenly, Rong Rong realized what she meant and blushed instantly.
Since Rong Rong woke up, the two slept in the same room, but Rong Rong said she was not used to it. Li Tianyi was considerate of Rong Rong's timidity and never touched her.
The two had always gotten along well, but now Rong Rong had unintentionally provoked him.
"I...I won't draw anymore!" Rong Rong panicked and tried to get up, but Li Tianyi suddenly grabbed her hand.
Rong Rong lowered her head in embarrassment, and her gaze fell on Li Tianyi's abs.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight..." Rong Rong subconsciously counted in her mind. After counting, she realized what she was doing and immediately blushed and lowered her head even further.
"Rongrong." Li Tianyi chuckled and ruffled Rongrong's fluffy head, completely oblivious to the surging emotions within him. He only wished he could pull the beauty into his arms and comfort her.
"Don't move! I haven't finished drawing yet!" Rong Rong shouted, trying to hide her panic.
Li Tianyi had no choice but to lie down and dare not move again.
After a slight hesitation, Rong Rong finally picked up her paintbrush and continued painting. She was really fierce, and she couldn't let Li Tianyi discover that she was all bark and no bite!
Yes, that's it!
Rong Rong frowned and quickly began to draw. This time, she learned her lesson and no longer used her hands to wipe Li Tianyi's chest.
But Rong Rong didn't know why, she unconsciously paused when she got to the abdominal muscles, and then slowly outlined the lines of the abdominal muscles.
Finally, Li Tianyi couldn't suppress a low growl and flipped over to pin Rong Rong down. Soon, sounds that made people blush and their hearts race could be heard in the garden.
Fortunately, because Li Tianyi was so jealous, he and Rong Rong never allowed anyone else to enter their courtyard, and he even took care of Rong Rong's daily life himself.
This allows the two of them to be undisturbed and completely immersed in their sweet world together.
