As Fei Leng gently licked her earlobe, Jiang Jingyue couldn't take it anymore. This was a rather sensitive spot for her, and with him doing it like that, she couldn't help but let out a soft moan, "Mmm!"
Hearing Jiang Jingyue's voice, Fei Leng became even more excited. However, this time he didn't do anything to Jiang Jingyue. He just kept kissing her until she couldn't take it anymore.
"Your Majesty, please stop. If you continue like this, I really can't stand it. Your Majesty, I haven't even asked you yet. At this hour, in the middle of the night, do you have something important to tell me?"
When Fei Leng heard Jiang Jingyue ask that question, he shook his head.
"It's nothing. I just wanted to come and see you. I was worried that you were upset about what happened yesterday, so I thought I'd come and check on you."
Hearing Fei Leng say that, Jiang Jingyue nodded, but then she asked Fei Leng again.
"Your Majesty, why are you lingering outside and not coming in?"
When Fei Leng heard Jiang Jingyue ask that question, he was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say.
He couldn't very well say that he was afraid because he was afraid that Jiang Jingyue wouldn't want to see him after he came in and would make him leave.
So what he was planning was to go in and see Jiang Jingyue while she was asleep, without letting her know. Fei Leng felt that this would make him completely satisfied.
However, to his surprise, Jiang Jingyue hadn't fallen asleep at all, and she discovered him as soon as he entered.
"Xiao Jing, I thought you didn't want to see me, so I was just about to come in and take a quick look at you before leaving. I didn't expect you to still be awake."
Jiang Jingyue: Of course, I've been waiting for you, how could I possibly fall asleep?
However, Jiang Jingyue could only say this secretly in her heart; she couldn't let anyone else hear it.
"Your Majesty, you may go back now! I am tired and want to sleep."
Fei Leng was reluctant to leave, but since Jiang Jingyue had said so, he had no choice but to go.
"Xiao Jing, why don't you go to sleep? I'll watch you sleep, and then I'll leave once you're asleep."
Jiang Jingyue did not refuse, lay down on the bed, and slowly closed her eyes.
When Fei Leng was sure that Jiang Jingyue was breathing steadily and asleep, he got up. Looking at Jiang Jingyue, whose cheeks were flushed from sleeping, he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her on the cheek. After kissing her, he slowly got up and left.
Before they even reached the door, Fei Leng stopped instinctively, and Jiang Jingyue, who had opened her eyes, immediately closed them again.
Fei Leng carefully placed the gift he had prepared for Jiang Jingyue by her bedside before leaving, feeling relieved.
The instant Fei Leng left, Jiang Jingyue on the bed behind him suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze clear, showing no sign of having just woken up.
She glanced at the things beside her, reached out and picked them up. As soon as she opened them, her eyes were drawn to what was inside.
This is a whip, and for someone who enjoys playing with whips, this is undoubtedly a gift that has touched Jiang Jingyue's heart.
When Jiang Jingyue saw the whip, she liked it very much and couldn't wait to pick it up and swing it.
If it weren't for the late hour, she might have actually done it.
Meanwhile, inside the Empress's palace, the Empress stood there, her face full of anger and disbelief. She hadn't expected that after finally finding out where the Emperor was, he had gone to the Marquis Jiang's residence and hadn't come out for so long.
This was unacceptable to the Empress. She had always believed that the reason the Emperor hadn't touched the women in the harem was because he kept other women outside the palace and hadn't brought them in.
But she never expected that the emperor had always preferred men, not women.
The Empress, disregarding everything else, donned her phoenix robe and stood guard at the palace gate, waiting for Fei Leng to return.
She wanted to ask the Emperor about this matter in front of him to see if she had misunderstood or if the Emperor truly preferred men.
However, the Empress was shivering with cold at the palace gate, and by dawn she still hadn't seen the Emperor return, which made her feel somewhat devastated.
She couldn't help but wonder if the Emperor had stayed overnight. However, she quickly dismissed the thought, reasoning that even if the Emperor was insignificant, he wouldn't do such a thing.
"You lot, go and find out where the Emperor is right now."
As soon as the Empress finished speaking, a servant ran over from not far away.
The moment the servant saw the Empress, he immediately cried out.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Emperor has returned to the palace."
Upon hearing that Fei Leng had returned, the Empress's anxiety instantly subsided.
She was genuinely worried that if the Emperor allowed a man to stay overnight, what would become of the concubines in the harem?
The thought sent a chill down the queen's spine. Were they to share a husband with another man?
No, this matter cannot be allowed no matter what. Seeing lights shining from not far away, the Empress knew that the Emperor must be coming.
She waited for a while and finally saw the Emperor's figure. The Empress couldn't wait to run over.
But to her surprise, as soon as she arrived, she was met with the emperor's cold face.
Wu Jing was somewhat confused. She didn't know why the Emperor always gave her a cold look, even though she hadn't done anything wrong.
"Your Majesty, have you returned? Let me help you! It's getting dark."
After Wu Jing finished speaking, she immediately came to Fei Leng's side and reached out to help him.
However, Fei Leng moved quickly and dodged it in an instant.
"Your Majesty, it's so late, what brings you here, and how did you know I would be here too?"
When Fei Leng asked her that question, Wu Jing's face stiffened, and she was somewhat stunned.
After a long pause, he finally looked at Fei Leng and stammered out his words.
"Your Majesty, I was just guessing. I couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd wait here and see. I didn't expect to run into Your Majesty by such a coincidence."
Hearing Wu Jing say that, Fei Leng sneered, glanced at her, and his icy gaze sent chills down Wu Jing's spine.
"Well, you guessed quite accurately, even knowing exactly where I am. Empress, should I praise you for being so clever?"
You could tell just how angry Fei Leng was from his expression.
This was the first time Wu Jing had ever seen Fei Leng so angry, and for a moment, he was at a loss for what to do.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I was wrong. I will never do it again."
