Chapter 36: Red Ears, So Cute

Pei Yuning: "What about you? Why did you only mention that I should have a video call with my grandparents yesterday? Obviously, the elders have already met each other."

Shang Yanci: "When did you know?"

Pei Yuning: "My grandma mentioned it by chance when I was chatting with her at noon."

Shang Yanci carefully explained: "My wife and I have no emotional foundation. If I let you meet unfamiliar elders right after getting the marriage certificate, you will have the illusion that I am urging you to move forward. I think no one will like this feeling."

Shang Yanci: "I didn't intend to mention the video meeting yesterday, but grandpa and grandma really wanted to see you and sent me messages every day to ask about you. I recalled the process of our getting along after we got the marriage certificate, and I thought it was pretty good, so I mentioned this to you."

Pei Yuning listened and remained silent for a moment, then put his hands on Shang Yanci's sensual waist and abdomen: "A Yan, you have so many thoughts in your mind."

Shang Yanci whispered, "Because I don't want Madam to dislike me."

Pei Yuning kissed him: "I won't hate you."

The kiss was like a dragonfly skimming the water, and it ended in an instant.

Shang Yanci raised his hands and clasped the back of her neck, closing the distance between them, and pressed his warm tongue against her lips and teeth, absorbing her sweetness.

Since you won't hate me, then try to love me. Don't just show your superficial liking for me, but love me deeply and passionately.

After dinner, the two drove back to Wentang Palace.

Shang Yanci went into the study and continued copying the registration book. After two more nights, he could tie a knot of love on the book.

Estimating the time Pei Yuning would take to wash up, Shang Yanci put down the brush in his hand, waited for the gold ink on the etiquette book to dry naturally, walked out of the study, and went downstairs to boil vanilla milk for her.

Pei Yuning finished her shower, opened the bathroom door, and continued with her skin care.

I recalled every moment I had spent with Shang Yanci at Yuhua Mingyuan over the weekend, and my face turned redder the more I thought about it.

How did they kiss? And they slept in the same bed for two nights? Will they sleep together tonight?

After the skin care process was completed, Pei Yuning walked out of the bathroom and saw Shang Yanci leaning on the other side of the wedding bed.

He was wearing a black silk nightgown, his sharp collarbone faintly visible at the collar, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose. He was flipping through a book in his hand, reading it intently.

Pei Yuning walked over, picked up the vanilla milk on the bedside table, and drank it slowly. She stood by the bed in silence, looking down at someone who was immersed in a book on the bed.

Shang Yanci seemed to have just noticed her at this moment. He finally took his eyes off the book and looked at her: "Madam."

Pei Yuning: "Are you going to sleep here tonight?"

Shang Yanci put down the book in his hand, sat up, and put his hand on her belly: "I will be with you until your period is over."

Pei Yuning: "What about after the menstrual period is over?"

Shang Yanci answered seriously: "I will find a new excuse to stay when the time comes."

Pei Yuning finished drinking the vanilla milk and turned to go to the bathroom.

Shang Yanci stood up and followed her, lifted the hair around her ears, gently twisted her small ears with his fingertips, and chuckled lazily: "Madam, your ears are red, they are so cute."

Pei Yuning: "I didn't!"

"Well, the ears are not red. I was mistaken." Shang Yanci took the thermos glass cup from her hand and rinsed it clean.

Pei Yuning was standing aside brushing her teeth, with a faint citrus scent, a bit like the top note of Shang Yanci's perfume - bergamot.

When she lowered her head to rinse her mouth, Shang Yanci reached out and grasped her long curly hair, and his fingertips lightly stroked her fair neck.

Pei Yuning's heart trembled slightly. He raised his eyes to look at the rubber bands on the shelf, then quietly looked away.

The two walked out of the bathroom, turned off the lights and rested.

The bed in the bridal chamber was bigger than the bed in her own bedroom.

Pei Yuning: "Ayan, I want to wear your perfume tomorrow."

Shang Yanci was sleeping on his side, very close to her, and he placed his warm palm on her lower abdomen and rubbed it gently: "Okay, do you like the taste?"

Pei Yuning leaned over to his neck and sniffed: "I like it."

The warm and refreshing breath fell on the skin of her neck. Shang Yanci's Adam's apple moved, and she warned in a low voice: "Madam, don't get so close to me."

Pei Yuning insisted on getting closer to him: "Yes!"

Shang Yanci comforted her in a gentle voice: "Okay, I'll do it. Good night, Madam."

Pei Yuning kissed his cheek: "Good night, Yan."

The next morning.

When Pei Yuning woke up, Shang Yanci was no longer in bed. He must have gone to the gym across the street.

She sat up from the bed and leisurely walked into the bathroom to wash and put on makeup.

When she lived in Yuhua Mingyuan before, it took her 50 minutes to commute to the group, and she had to drive away from home at 8 o'clock. After half an hour of coffee and breakfast, she had to leave the bedroom at 7:30 at the latest. She usually had to get up around 6:50 in the morning to wash and put on makeup.

But at Wentang Palace, she can leave home at 8:30 and stay in the crib longer in the morning.

All in all, marrying Shang Yanci improved her sleep quality to a certain extent.

Pei Yuning finished putting on her makeup, picked up the bottle of Shang Yanci perfume, sprayed it on the curling comb, combed her curly hair, and then sprayed it on her wrists, fingertips, behind her ears, and collarbone.

Putting down the perfume bottle, Pei Yuning raised her eyes and saw from the mirror that Shang Yanci walked into the bathroom. She reached out and lifted the hem of her white sleeveless vest, revealing her well-defined abdominal muscles. Beads of sweat ran down through the veins in her skin, and her grey trousers were soaked by the waistband.

Their eyes met.

Shang Yanci paused slightly, loosened his hands, and let his half-lifted vest fall naturally, covering his abdominal muscles. His voice after exercise was low and sexy: "Madam, good morning."

Pei Yuning almost whistled, then she paused before saying, "Good morning, are you done with your workout?"

Shang Yanci: "Well, I'm going to take a bath. Have you finished putting on makeup?"

Pei Yuning blinked and raised her finger to touch her lips: "Is the color of the new lip gloss pretty?"

Shang Yanci looked at her sparkling red lips, which were like the crystal clear morning dew kissing the delicate and tempting heart of a rose.

His Adam's apple rolled, and he suppressed the desire to kiss her, praising her in a low voice: "Very beautiful."

Pei Yuning smiled and said, "I'll go downstairs to make coffee. You go wash up."

When passing by him, Shang Yanci smelled her own perfume. This feeling was hard to describe, and before he could express it clearly, he reached out and grabbed Pei Yuning's wrist.
