Chapter 184: Do you want to sleep together?
Ye Fei returned to her dormitory, washed her face, lay down on her bed, and closed her eyes. Suddenly, she heard a slight sound in the air. She opened her eyes abruptly, and a handsome man dressed in a black brocade robe suddenly appeared beside her bed.
Ye Fei: "...How did you get in?!"
Li Yuan watched her sit up in bed and put his hand on her shoulder: "No need to get up, lie down."
Ye Fei obediently lay down again, and the man carefully covered her with the blanket. Then he sat on the chair beside her bed, his slender fingers gently caressing the small scratches on the back of her hand, his phoenix eyes slightly narrowed: "Does it still hurt?"
Ye Fei shook her head: "It doesn't hurt anymore. Don't be angry. Swords and blades have no eyes on the sparring stage, so it's not surprising to get injured."
"Hmm," Li Yuan responded listlessly.
Seeing that the man still had no expression, Ye Fei raised her hand and gently pinched his cheeks, lifting them slightly: "Okay, smile, don't keep a straight face."
Li Yuan looked into her clear, bright eyes and smiled in response.
Ye Fei sighed, "Your face is so beautiful, you should smile more."
Li Yuan took her hand in return and said calmly, "I only want to smile in front of you."
Ye Fei: "Tsk, so aloof."
"Alright, go to sleep now." Li Yuan gently stroked her hair, his deep purple eyes filled with affection. "I'll watch you sleep."
Ye Fei blinked her eyes and suddenly blurted out, "Do you want to sleep together too?"
Li Yuan: "..."
Ye Fei immediately realized what was happening and hurriedly covered her mouth, saying, "I didn't say anything! You didn't hear anything!"
My goodness, inviting someone to bed together is such a bold move...
“I heard you,” Li Yuan said quietly.
He stood up and very consciously took off his outer robe.
Ye Fei's cheeks burned, and she pulled the blanket over her face, deciding to hide like a turtle.
The bed wasn't very big, and the space for two people was very limited. Li Yuan quickly lay down next to her, and to be honest, it was a bit cramped.
He glanced at the girl huddled under the covers, a smirk playing on his lips.
The man pinched the corner of the blanket with two fingers, and the person wrapped inside rolled over on the bed and was pulled into his arms.
Ye Fei's face rested in Li Yuan's warm embrace, her steady and powerful heartbeat audible, and a familiar, strange, cool fragrance wafted into her nostrils, carrying a slightly intoxicating scent.
"Go to sleep."
This was the first time Li Yuan had ever slept while holding someone, and this person was someone he loved. It felt rather strange.
The emptiness in my heart was completely filled in that instant.
Ye Fei curled up stiffly in his arms. After a while, she finally relaxed and fell into a deep sleep, smelling his unique scent.
...
Lingyun Kingdom, Imperial Palace.
A woman dressed in a phoenix robe, exuding elegance and nobility, sat on the phoenix throne, listening to the girl's lament before her.
"Your Majesty, this is what happened..."
Nan Yan heard Rong's eyes were red. She wiped away her tears and sobbed softly, "Ting Rong knows that she is not worthy of Rong Yu. If Rong Yu really does not like Ting Rong, then this engagement should end..."
The Empress gently patted Nan Yan Tingrong's hand, comforting her, "Don't talk nonsense. You and Rong Yu have been childhood sweethearts, and your feelings for each other are deeper than anyone else's. If you are not a good match for him, then what woman in this world is worthy of him?"
“But Brother Rongyu…” Nan Yan heard Rong cover her face and cry, “Last night I…I saw him walk out of another girl’s dormitory with my own eyes!”
Upon hearing this, the Empress's expression immediately turned cold: "Ting Rong, who is that girl?"
