As soon as Su Miao looked up, she met Shen Changji's deep eyes.
He stepped forward, pulled Su Miao into his arms, and gently opened her hand with his large hand.
Su Miao's hand was completely held by him, and she had no power to break free, letting him lead her.
As she looked at the scene before her, the impulses that had been suppressed deep within her began to surge and churn.
She could feel every cell in her body screaming in despair…
She thought...
How could she not want a man like Shen Changji?
He looked at her with a half-smile, his warm breath falling on her face.
Su Miao was in a state of great turmoil, and her hands felt weak.
Because of her physique, she was enveloped in a long, ambiguous atmosphere created by silence, surrounded by a net that silently bound her tightly.
Her heart was beating faster than ever before.
The moment her fingertips touched it, her scalp tingled and her heart pounded like a drum.
After three years apart, why did she feel that this man had become even more capable?
Almost at the same moment, Shen Changji leaned down and kissed her.
Su Miao's breath hitched, and she was momentarily dazed, but she had already fallen into the atmosphere he had created that was enough to drown her.
It was at this moment that the loose nightgown hanging on Shen Changji slipped from between her fingers.
Only one candle was lit in the room, and in its flickering light, it vaguely revealed the man's strong and powerful upper body through the curtains, with clearly defined muscles.
Su Miao's ears burned with embarrassment.
Her skin was like jade, while his skin was honey-colored, creating a striking visual contrast.
"How about it?"
Shen Changji chuckled softly as he faced Su Miao's intense gaze.
"Um……"
She did not answer.
"How does it compare to the storybooks you've read?"
Su Miaoxin had been gradually calming down, but upon hearing these words, her face instantly flushed again.
She instinctively denied it, saying, "I didn't..."
She had only read those storybooks on Yu Bai Mountain, since... people there needed something to pass the time.
She didn't bring it back with her after returning to Beijing.
Shen Changji was only in her study tonight handling some matters, so how could he know what she had read?
During her years in Baishan, she had almost never seen Shen Changji.
If it weren't for Elder Lu saying that Shen Changji had made the medicinal ingredient for her, she wouldn't have known that Shen Changji had come to Yu Baishan.
But even then, Old Master Lu was by her side, and she must have hidden the things before she closed her eyes.
unless……
Su Miao couldn't help but think of those beautiful dreams.
There is only one possibility: the dreams she had at Baishan were not dreams at all!
Perhaps it was at that moment that Shen Changji discovered...
Su Miao suddenly climbed up his long, silent neck and whispered in his ear.
The warm, humid air filled his ears, and he felt a sudden tightness in his body.
"General Shen, you're really not honest." Su Miao pressed her lips to his earlobe.
She smiled, her eyes sparkling with charm and allure, like a mischievous little fox.
He looked at her with a deep silence, as if some emotion was churning in his eyes.
His cool fingertips touched Su Miao's lips, and his blood surged with excitement.
Su Miao could no longer suppress the restlessness in her heart and kissed him directly.
He paused for a long, silent breath.
He forcefully held her waist in response, slowly leading her to succumb.
The scalding heat swept over her senses, eroding her reason, and even her shoulders trembled slightly.
——
She called for water four times that night, and by the fourth time, Su Miao blushed and covered herself with the blanket.
Who would bully someone like that?!
Shen Changji looked at the person under the covers, who was occasionally sobbing, and felt very pleased.
What Su Miao least expected was that, despite going to bed so late last night, the man beside her was able to get up and go to court at the crack of dawn...
Even hearing the long, quiet sound of someone changing clothes, she felt tired even moving a finger.
Before leaving, Shen Changji placed a kiss on Su Miao's brow before going out.
Although Su Miao felt something, she turned over and went back to sleep.
Not only was Su Miao shocked by the silence, but even Lone Eagle was not.
His master has always arrived at court precisely on time these past few years.
But today... it's much earlier than usual.
I reckon his master was the first one here today.
Seeing his master in such a cheerful mood, Lone Eagle couldn't help but wonder if his own good days were just around the corner.
Sure enough, Shen Changji was the first to arrive.
It took quite a while before people started entering the palace one after another.
Xie Qin hadn't slept for half the night. He originally thought that his time in Qingjiang City was the most tiring time of his life.
I never expected that... returning to Beijing would be even more tiring than being there.
At the same time he saw Shen Changji, Shen Changji also saw him.
"Don't worry, I'll say a few words to His Majesty and reduce some of your official duties."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qin was so moved that she almost knelt down.
"Have you heard? The King of the Southern Dynasty has come today."
"I've heard that the ruler of the Southern Dynasty is no ordinary man; he's brave and skilled in battle, and also a romantic! Why has he suddenly come here?"
"I heard they came here for sightseeing, but since they're from neighboring countries, that's normal."
The Southern Dynasty and the Northern Dynasty were considered friendly neighbors, and they had been helping each other for many years.
The sudden arrival of the ruler of the Southern Dynasty surprised them, as it was somewhat unexpected.
Before long, they met the ruler of the Southern Dynasty.
Although he was somewhat old, his appearance was still quite good, judging from his bone structure. His every move exuded a resolute and awe-inspiring presence, and his demeanor inspired awe.
