Chapter 54: Good Luck
The hand covering his cheek froze.
Even if Shen Fu didn't bow her head, she knew what His Majesty was saying. At certain times of the night, His Majesty lingered at her neck more than once.
At this moment, Shen Fu knew what was on it better than anyone else.
There are not only those on the neck, but also countless fine and dense ones under the dress.
It was just that she was so anxious about the allergy on her face that she forgot about the red marks on her body. Now that His Majesty had pointed it out so openly, Shen Fu felt as if someone had grabbed her throat and didn't know how to defend herself.
"Shen Fu."
She stood there stiffly without moving, but the Emperor was clearly not willing to let her go easily.
His tall and straight body bent down, and his smiling breath sprayed on her ear.
"Chen Fu, tell me what is here."
His hot fingertips rested on her neck, rubbing gently on it. His Majesty lowered his head as he spoke, his tone was slowly tempting, and it also sounded like he was coaxing her.
Shen Fu's whole body froze, and she stretched out her hand to the emperor's chest, trying hard to push the person in front of her away.
But as soon as she stretched out her finger, it was grasped by a hand. The large palm easily pinched her wrist and put it behind her back.
"Tell me."
The hand that was caressing the fingertips was about to move down, along the neckline, to explore the edge of the dress.
Shen Fu's body stiffened instantly.
She raised her head, only to meet a pair of lustful eyes. There seemed to be thick ink in his dark eyes, so dark that water seemed to be dripping out of them.
The moment she met His Majesty's gaze, Shen Fu felt a tingling sensation all over her body.
She knew the meaning of this look very well. Every night, the Emperor would look at her with this look.
"This looks like a kiss mark..." The summer dress was thin, and the snow-white skin was faintly visible under the plain gauze skirt.
If you look closely, you can see the red marks that cannot be covered under the dress. Except for the neck, looking all the way down, the whole body is densely packed with them.
"You're all over your body." With a low, panting voice, His Majesty stretched out his hand, placed his palm on Shen Fu's chin, and squeezed it hard.
Shen Fu raised her head, her palm-sized body was held in his hand, and she had no ability to resist at all.
With bony fingertips, she lifted up her collar. Chen Fu was like a bird in the palm of her hand, and could only let His Majesty get closer and closer.
The hand was about to fall completely.
Chen Fu opened her eyes and glanced at His Majesty secretly, but she didn't dare to look at His Majesty's face at all.
The voice that opened his mouth was hesitant and breathy: "Mosquito...mosquito bite."
"Heh..." A sneer came from above my head.
Xiao Yu looked at the woman in his arms, and his smiling eyes gradually turned cold.
Shen Fu's mouth is too hard to pry open, it's like a clam shell.
This mouth is only soft at night.
He looked down at Shen Fu deeply, and the fingertips that had been on Shen Fu's waist were retracted little by little: "The mosquitoes in the Qing Palace are really fierce. They have left tooth marks."
His Majesty's tone was neither salty nor bland, but contained a clear hint of sarcasm.
It's not that Chen Fu didn't hear it, but it would be more wrong to say more at this time, so it's better not to say anything.
As soon as His Majesty left her side, Chen Fu hurriedly lowered her head to tidy up her dress.
She thought the itchiness all over her body just now was due to allergies, but Shen Fu checked carefully and found no signs of allergies on her body.
I checked from the neck to the arms, and there was not even a single red spot on the body.
But she had clearly just eaten a cake with lotus seeds in it.
Chen Fu raised her head and looked at His Majesty hesitantly: "Your Majesty, what I just ate was..."
Allergy is a symptom she has had since birth. Over the years, her grandfather has sought out many famous doctors for her but the condition has not been relieved.
But now she didn't have any symptoms at all. Chen Fu could only think of one explanation, which was that what she had just eaten was not lotus root powder or lotus seed cake.
So was His Majesty testing her just now?
Shen Fu's eyes were hesitant, and His Majesty saw it clearly.
He sneered and said, "How do I know what you eat?"
I had intended to punish Chen Fu, but in the end I was soft-hearted.
The lotus root powder and lotus seed cake was fake to begin with. He just added some itching powder to the cake that Shen Fu ate.
Chen Fu was anxious, and she was allergic to begin with, so she let the cat out of the bag in a hurry.
But he never expected that even after the clues were exposed, Shen Fu could still lie without blinking.
His Majesty's eyes were cold, and there was no warmth in his gaze when he looked at Chen Fu.
"Chen Fu." He spoke in a light tone, caressing her with his fingertips: "What are the marks on your body? Don't I know?"
He knew it, Chen Fu knew it, they both knew it very well, but Chen Fu just refused to admit it.
Although he could understand Chen Fu's helplessness and shyness, he could even turn a blind eye to her repeated deceptions.
But he couldn't tolerate Shen Fu trying to erase the incident.
“Your Highness…” The look in His Highness’s eyes frightened Shen Fu.
To say or not to say is actually just a matter of thought.
But if His Majesty wants her to say it out loud, Shen Qingru will inevitably be involved.
When Shen Fu thought of the person lying on the bed, her fingertips couldn't help but curl up together. Shen Qingru was now lying on the bed with her face ruined. The punishment was enough, but Shen Fu felt that it was still not enough.
Now he was just lying in bed with a ruined face.
And Chen Fu... thought of herself in her previous life, dying in the cold snow.
Shen Qingru's appearance is only slightly ruined now, how can it offset the hatred in her heart?
"Your Majesty, I am guilty."
His Majesty is very suspicious, and the more Shen Fu explains at this time, the safer Shen Qingru may be.
On the contrary, the more Shen Fu defended Shen Qingru at this time, the more suspicious His Majesty became about her.
Chen Fu looked down at the kiss marks all over her body... bit her lips and knelt down without saying a word.
"What crime have you committed?" Xiao Yu looked down at her.
His deep, dark eyes focused on Shenfu's, as if he was looking into her heart.
"Your Majesty..." The kiss mark has been revealed, and any further explanation now seems futile. Chen Fu looked into His Majesty's eyes and said with a trembling voice:
"This is not a mosquito bite, but... but..."
The next words seemed to be unable to be uttered, and Shen Fu's throat rolled: "Traces of pleasure."
"Have sex?" His Majesty did not expect her to really admit it, and he pinched her with his palm and almost forced her to ask, "Chen Fu, who are you having sex with!"
As long as she admits it!
As long as she admits it, I will forgive her immediately and make her my concubine!
Shen Fu looked deeply at His Majesty.
Her look was uneasy, and her distinct black and white eyes were deliberately raised towards His Majesty.
Sometimes, no matter how many words you say, they cannot compare to the expression in your eyes.
Shen Fu took a deep breath, her eyes drooped, and red marks immediately appeared at the corners of her eyes.
Let His Majesty see more clearly the pain and struggle in his eyes: "It is the one whom this subject loves..."
After Shen Fu finished speaking, her knees softened and she knelt on the ground, her slender waist standing straight.
"This subject deserves death. I only ask for... punishment from Your Majesty."
