"Senior, how are you doing with those surgical books I gave you?"
"Don't worry, junior sister. I read it all word for word and even tried it many times on the simulation model you gave me."
Su Jingzhan is the successor to the mantle of the Nine Valley Divine Physician. He is a medical genius that is rare in a century, and he has an extremely strong ability to accept new things, so this learning ability comes naturally to him.
"That's good. After Nianxia's examination tomorrow, the surgery can be performed. You can assist me from the side, as I can't do this surgery alone."
Su Jingzhan was so happy he almost jumped for joy. He had been thinking about how to ask Yan An to participate in the surgery, but he was afraid that he would cause trouble for Yan An.
How could he possibly let such a great learning opportunity slip by?
"Okay, I will definitely help you complete this surgery well."
Yue Xiyuan escorted Yan An back to the Yan residence, saying, "I will come to pick you up tomorrow."
"Alright. But my Regent, are you always this free? And our wedding is almost here, don't you have anything to prepare?"
He's not that free, you know. Every day when he returns to the Regent's Palace, he still has a lot of government affairs to deal with.
Fortunately, he had been helping with government affairs since Yue Yufeng ascended the throne, so he became much more adept and skilled at it.
"Don't worry, I've already arranged all of this. Just focus on your work, I'll always be there for you."
"It was all planned out in advance? Weren't you with me the whole time?"
[Does this guy have some kind of clone ability?]
"Take a guess?"
"You didn't plan this all along, did you?"
Yan An cleared his throat, raised his eyebrows, and stared at Yue Xiyuan without making a sound.
[This guy is too 'cunning'. I've studied psychology for so long and still can't figure out his little schemes. I need to stay far away from him in the future, lest I do something bad and he finds out.]
"Premeditated? You could say that, since she was my fiancée when she was just born."
In fact, the night Yan An agreed to accept Yue Xiyuan, Yue Xiyuan had already begun preparing for their wedding. He oversaw everything from the wedding attire and betrothal gifts to the decorations of the Regent's Palace.
During this period, he didn't even trust An San, and kept giving him repeated instructions and asking him about small issues over and over again.
Yue Xiyuan was worried that since the Regent's Palace originally didn't have any maids, he might need a few after Yan An entered the palace. He almost asked An Yi to train a few female bodyguards in the secret chamber.
Later, thanks to An Si's reminder, the princess had four maids by her side: Bai Tao, Bai Zhi, Bai Lan, and Bai Su. Presumably, they were still the same maids she used to have.
Only then did Yue Xiyuan give up on the idea.
In fact, An Si also had his own selfish motives. If the Dark Pavilion had a female bodyguard, she would definitely replace him in the position by the princess's side.
Serving the princess would be wonderful; there's good food, rewards, and easy work. Nobody would want to do that.
"Tch, who knows who's complaining about this marriage?"
"Who complains? Who dares to complain? I'll kill anyone who complains."
"Then why don't you just cut yourself off first?"
"That won't do. If I cut it off, how will I take care of An'an?"
Upon hearing the word "serve," Yan An immediately associated it with the word "click," and his thoughts immediately went astray.
Two blushes involuntarily appeared on her stunningly beautiful face.
"Why is An'an's face so red? Does she have a fever?"
Yue Xiyuan placed his hand on Yan An's forehead and tested it. "Strange, it's not hot."
Yan An shook her head. [No way, did he just flirt with me? And he doesn't even know it? No way, I'm not one to be passive.]
Yan An tiptoed, her slender fingers tracing Yue Xiyuan's lips, her fair arms already wrapped around his neck.
That hand traced along Yue Xiyuan's lips, gently brushing past his ear, down to his Adam's apple, leaving a trail of red marks wherever it touched.
Just as Yan An's fingers were about to continue downwards, Yue Xiyuan grabbed his restless hand.
"An'an, An'an, please, please, don't go any further."
At this moment, Yue Xiyuan's neck and above resembled a ripe red apple, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.
Yan An immediately released his hand from around his neck.
"Oh well."
Yue Xiyuan felt the warmth on his body vanish instantly; compared to that impulsive feeling, he was now even more disappointed.
At this moment, Yue Xiyuan's eyes were both vulnerable and burning, as if they were about to break free of their restraints and ignite his soul.
His reddened eyes stared intently at Yan An, as if he were thirsty, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.
"An'an, you're the one who caused this trouble, don't blame me."
Yue Xiyuan lowered his head and kissed her sweetness, his hands more unrestrained than ever before, his fingertips slightly cool.
Yan An felt a tingling itch on the skin around her waist. She gently rubbed it upwards, her palm covering the area through her undergarments with incredibly tender movements.
Just as the two were deeply in love and immersed in each other's company, an uninvited guest arrived at Zi'an Courtyard.
"Sister, sister, are you inside? I came to see if you've made the wine for me yet. I brought some fruit; see if you can use it?"
Yan Yi specially selected some of his favorite fruits; the wine made from his favorite fruits would definitely taste better.
Yan An immediately recognized him as his older brother, who spent his days eating, drinking, and having fun. Even if he had a wife, she would have run away long ago.
In a flash of consciousness, the two of them crashed heavily onto the bed. Yue Xiyuan embraced Yan An, showering her with kisses that swept over her and then slowed down. He reached out and gently cupped the back of her head, their breaths mingling.
Yue Xiyuan originally intended to punish Yan An, but unexpectedly, he ended up punishing himself instead.
