This was the first time Su Miao had dressed so boldly.
She was initially worried that she might be too reserved, but seeing Chen Changji's expression, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.
"Is it good-looking, General Shen?" She poked Shen Changji's chin with her finger, deliberately softening her voice.
He remained silent for a long time, but his ears turned red.
Su Miao smiled even more brightly.
A long silence followed: "You know the answer already."
Su Miao was in a good mood and couldn't help but kiss him on the cheek, her eyes burning with undisguised passion.
Shen Changji looked at her delicate and charming features, especially her moist red lips, which were endlessly alluring with every opening and closing.
Further down...
His eyes held an undisguised darkness, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
Su Miao was already beautiful, and now she looked even more irresistible.
When Shen Changji leaned closer, Su Miao immediately sensed his urgency.
Something is bound to happen tonight.
But at this very moment, she also missed him.
Su Miao looked up at him with misty eyes, her gaze subtly gesturing towards the bronze mirror not far away.
"It seems we haven't tried it there yet."
Her voice was so soft and captivating.
In the dim candlelight, those bright, clear eyes held a captivating allure.
Without hesitation, Shen Changji kissed him.
A long, lingering kiss was enough to make Su Miaoqing instinctively wrap her arms around his neck.
She felt a hot breath envelop her ears, and her heart skipped a beat.
Shen Changji slowly leaned forward, his thin lips close to her ear, and said in a low, husky voice, "You said it yourself, Miao'er."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Miao immediately felt herself being lifted into the air and picked up.
The icy touch made her flinch, but Shen Changji grabbed her hand behind her back.
Their warm, rapid breaths lingered, and after a long and drawn-out reunion, they found it all the more difficult to part.
Su Miao felt the deep love from Chen Changji pierce her heart, her heart pounding and her breathing heavy and disordered.
Her mind went blank, she lost all thought, and almost instinctively hugged him.
"My husband..."
Su Miao seized the opportunity, her sweet voice close to Shen Changji's ear, and called out affectionately.
Although that sound was deep and unclear, the words were enough to bring tears to his eyes.
He held the person in his arms even tighter, wishing he could melt Su Miao into his very bones.
"You really want to?"
Shen Changji could hardly believe his ears.
Su Miao chuckled softly, a blush creeping onto her face, and hugged him even tighter.
"Of course, I won't run away. I'll just follow you closely for the rest of my life!"
Upon hearing the last three words, Chen Changji's heart skipped a beat.
"Shout it again."
Moved by the emotion, Chen Changji's usually deep and cold voice became slightly hoarse, with a captivating charm.
In the darkness, Su Miao's heart softened at the sound of her voice.
But she refused.
"I'm not shouting anymore."
I didn't hear you clearly.
"I'm not shouting anymore! I'm not shouting anymore!"
Suppressing the surging emotions, Shen Changji said with red eyes, "Miao'er, I was wrong before. From now on, if you want me to do something, just tell me, give me orders, and I will agree to it."
Su Miao was already sensitive, and hearing such words was even more unbearable.
Moreover... his deep, quiet voice trembled slightly, and he spoke cautiously, as if each word was carefully considered before being uttered.
Her tears flowed like a burst dam.
Shen Changji reached out and gently wiped away her tears, tenderly wiping them away.
Like a surging tide, it engulfed the two once again.
...
A small opening in the window allowed the curtains to sway gently in the cool night breeze, casting two intersecting silhouettes.
——
The long-awaited imperial edict was granted by the Emperor on the same day.
A day has passed, but the imperial edict has still not been issued.
Shen Changji originally intended to go to the palace, but unexpectedly, news came from outside that the Empress Dowager wanted to see Su Miao.
Su Miao was puzzled when she heard that the Empress Dowager wanted to see her.
She had never met the Empress Dowager, nor had she ever had any contact with her. How could this suddenly happen...?
Thinking of the way Qin Zheng looked at him yesterday, Shen Changji couldn't help but suspect that this matter was related to him.
"So tired... I still have to go to the palace..."
Su Miao buried her face in Shen Changji's chest reluctantly, muttering something under her breath.
She thought there wouldn't be anything to do these next few days, which is why she was so bold last night.
Who knows...
"I'll go with you."
Hearing this, Su Miao waved her hand and slapped Shen Changji, "Then you help me wash up."
General Shen, who had eaten well last night, remained very patient despite being beaten.
Su Miao opened her arms toward Shen Changji.
Shen Changji skillfully picked her up and gently patted her head with his large hand. "Are you satisfied now?"
"I'm not satisfied. I want to live like this forever!"
"good."
...
Shen Changji told Su Miao about yesterday's events in the carriage. Although Su Miao was drowsy, she still managed to hear the gist of what had happened.
She just didn't want to face the Empress Dowager herself.
Knowing that Su Miao was nervous, Shen Changji comforted her, saying that the Empress Dowager was very kind and had a good relationship with her grandmother.
Even so, Su Miao still couldn't stay calm at the thought of facing such a person.
She just didn't expect that Shen Changji would come in with her.
With Chen Changji beside her, she wasn't too worried.
After all, it's a two-person challenge.
Upon entering the Empress Dowager's palace, Su Miao bowed respectfully in greeting.
