If it were anyone else, An Yuan'er would definitely be a thousand times, ten thousand times unwilling.
Even if you just touch it, let alone bump into it, An Yuan'er will never let it go.
But since the object of his affections has changed to Yi Chenli, he doesn't seem so unpleasant anymore.
An Yuan'er felt a sweet warmth in her heart without realizing it.
The two remained silent for a while. Yi Chenli did not hear the voice of the person next to him for a long time, but instead heard the sound of even breathing.
He untied the silk ribbon from his eyes and turned to look. An Yuan'er had applied medicine and was asleep with her eyes closed on his bed.
Yi Chenli gently tidied the stray hairs jumping around on An Yuan'er's face and sighed, "Round and chubby, I'm a normal man too. Are you too trusting of me or not afraid at all, that's why you slept next to me like this?"
"Silly girl. Foolish Yuan'er."
Yi Chenli didn't wake her up, letting her sleep comfortably.
Yi Chenli himself was having trouble sleeping. The faint scent of peach blossoms emanating from her body surrounded him, and he could still feel the lingering touch on his hands. Yi Chenli found it hard to calm down.
He took out the Tao Te Ching from his bedside again and started reading. He had read this book so many times that he could no longer calm his mind, but Yi Chenli still habitually opened the book.
He truly couldn't and didn't want to watch her marry another man one day.
He clutched the book tightly, the poor Tao Te Ching, battered and crumpled into a mess.
Subconsciously, he also hoped that this girl would stay with him forever and never separate.
An Yuan'er is a restless sleeper; she kicked off the blanket with her little feet.
Yi Chenli grabbed her fidgeting feet; her little feet were white, tender, and adorable, with a smooth, silky feel. He held her feet lingeringly, his eyes filled with a complex and deep, heavy expression.
He silently put An Yuan'er's feet back and covered her with the blanket again.
He looked at the girl's sleeping face and asked softly, "An Yuan'er, if I asked you to spend your whole life with me, would you be willing?"
An Yuan'er was asleep and couldn't answer.
In fact, Yi Chenli didn't dare to know the answer either.
Life is too long...
*
The few days of horseback riding were tiring; An Yuan'er worked from dawn till dusk.
Finally, I can sleep in again.
She really did sleep until noon.
I opened my eyes groggily to find myself in unfamiliar surroundings and no one beside me.
She was surprised to find herself sleeping in Yi Chenli's bed last night. She knew he wouldn't do anything to her while she was asleep, so she felt quite at ease.
Guoguo pushed the door open and came in: "Miss, the Sixth Prince guessed that you were about to wake up, so he sent me to pick you up and take you back."
An Yuan'er nodded; she didn't have the habit of taking over other people's rooms.
On the way back, Guoguo kept glancing at An Yuan'er, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
An Yuan'er knew that Guo Guo couldn't keep things to herself: "Just say what you want to say, it's so hard to keep it to yourself."
Guoguo spoke up, "Miss didn't return home all night, and she woke up in the Sixth Prince's room. Could it be that last night..."
An Yuan'er blushed: "You brat, what are you thinking about at such a young age?"
Her relationship with Yi Chenli was naturally not what Guoguo thought.
However, the scene of applying the medicine yesterday was quite romantic, and An Yuan'er blushed with embarrassment.
Seeing that her mistress's expression was off, Guoguo thought that An Yuan'er wasn't telling the truth, and she cried anxiously: "When the Second Master and Young Master were at home, they repeatedly told Guoguo to keep a close eye on the young lady and to make sure that the young lady did nothing wrong. What are we going to do now? If the master finds out that the young lady and the Sixth Prince have already... the master will definitely kill Guoguo."
