Chapter 400, shall we review it?
The man's hot breath tickled and tingled in my ear, sending a shiver down my neck and arm.
Shen Chu hunched his neck slightly and blurted out.
"It's been so long, I don't remember."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yuan's chest trembled slightly, and his laughter was pleasant and deep.
"It seems I haven't tried hard enough, and the memory I left for Achu isn't deep enough."
He hugged Shen Chu tightly, resting his chin on Shen Chu's shoulder, his peach blossom eyes filled with a shimmering smile.
"Actually, we were all drugged back then. To be honest, my memory is a bit hazy. Why don't we go through it again?"
Shen Chu was taken aback, "Revisit...repeat the practice?"
Is this something that can be reviewed?
Pei Yuan argued vehemently, “Of course, Confucius said, ‘Is it not a pleasure to learn and practice what you have learned?’ A student who does not review his or her knowledge is not a good student.”
Chen Chu...
Does Confucius know that you're quoting this in this kind of situation?
Her eyes shifted slightly, and she wrapped her arms around Pei Yuan's neck, smiling sweetly.
"Sixth Brother, how do you plan to review?"
The beloved is in my arms, her eyes sparkling, her breath sweet as orchids.
Pei Yuan could not resist any longer, and his passionate kiss landed on her again.
This time, there was an even greater sense of urgency than before.
Chen Chu tilted her head back, enduring his kisses, until his breathing became increasingly heavy, then pushed against his chest to signal him to let go.
Pei Yuan released her, his eyes reddening, his emotions churning, clearly showing that he had fallen in love.
Shen Chu smiled and pointed to her stomach, blushing as she said:
"I'm due to give birth in a month, and my senior brother specifically told me that it's not advisable to..."
She leaned close to Pei Yuan's ear, breathed softly, and slowly uttered two words: "sexual relations."
It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured down from the sky.
The lust in Pei Yuan's eyes subsided, and a sense of clarity returned.
He looked down at himself, took a deep breath, and then looked up at Shen Chu, who was smiling slyly.
I immediately realized what was happening.
"Oh, so you were deliberately teasing me. You knew it was impossible, but you still tried to seduce me."
He held Shen Chu tightly, glaring at her fiercely.
Shen Chu smiled innocently, "You kissed me first, so if anyone should be seducing someone, it's you who seduced me."
Pei Yuan had no way to deal with her, and he was really suffering from the pain, so he reluctantly bit her neck lightly.
"Wait until you give birth, then I'll see how I deal with you."
Shen Chu winced in pain, her watery eyes glaring at him, and she gave a defiant snort.
"Come on, bring it on. We'll see who comes out on top then."
Pei Yuan smiled, cradling her swollen belly in his hands, and murmured:
"I really hope you can give birth to them soon. After they're born, you'll need to go through postpartum confinement. If you think about it, I'll have to be a monk for more than two months."
Shen Chu blushed, reached out and gently punched him. Remembering when she saw Lu Zhong earlier, the children kicked her, and she couldn't wait to tell Pei Yuan about it.
"...They're still so young, how come they already know how to protect their own?"
Pei Yuan's eyes lit up as he listened, his face beaming with pride.
"As expected of my children, Pei Yuan's children. They know how to protect their father even at such a young age. Good children, when you come out, whatever you want, your father will buy it for you."
Shen Chu raised an eyebrow. "Is now not the time for you to call my belly a rebellious child?"
Pei Yuan reached out and covered her stomach, saying in a serious tone, "There's no such thing as a grudge that lasts overnight between father and son."
Shen Chu was amused.
Pei Yuan put his arm around her, pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice, "So you came back to the capital to find Lu Zhan and Shen Mo?"
"yes."
Pei Yuan's face stiffened slightly. He lowered his head and bit Chen Chu as punishment, his voice muffled.
"I'll give you a chance, say it again."
Shen Chu hooked her arms around his neck, bit him back, then pressed her forehead against his and chuckled.
"Tsk, I smell something sour."
Pei Yuan snorted softly, nuzzling her forehead, and made a low, accusatory sound.
"I'm just jealous, is that wrong? You two grew up together, he's known you for many more years than I have."
You had originally planned to leave the capital, but upon hearing that he was still alive, you eagerly rushed back.
How can I not be jealous?
Shen Chu felt an itch on her forehead from his rubbing and couldn't help but laugh as she fell into his arms.
After laughing, she leaned against Pei Yuan's chest, tilted her head up, and kissed him.
"Just kidding. I'm going back to Beijing not only because of them, but also because of you."
"Me?" Pei Yuan's eyes lit up. "Really?"
Shen Chu nodded. "Yes, I admit that I was afraid of being accused of deceiving the emperor and was prepared to take the child and flee with my life. I even thought about taking you with me and leaving the capital."
This approach is somewhat selfish; asking you to give up everything in the capital and follow me into seclusion is too unfair to you.
Pei Yuan shook his head, "But I'm willing to leave with you."
Shen Chu extended a finger and touched his lips.
“I know you’re willing to leave with me, but I also know you have ambitions and a thirst for revenge, and you have things you want to do.”
She grasped Pei Yuan's hand and smiled slightly.
"Sixth Brother, I don't want you to suffer in silence and live your whole life under someone else's name."
I want to face all the storms of this world with you, under the names of Chen Chuchu and Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan looked at her intently, his gaze moved, his voice low and hoarse.
“A-Chu”.
He held Shen Chu tightly, with such force that it seemed he wanted to meld her into his very bones.
"My father has promised that if I win the martial arts tournament against Nan Yue, he will grant me one request."
I had hoped to request a pardon so that you would be spared punishment if your identity were revealed.
As for the Chen family, I've already reached an agreement. The Empress Dowager will soon decide to cancel my engagement with Chen Jiaying.
You are no longer bound by the crime of deceiving the emperor, and I am no longer bound by the marriage contract. If you are willing to live in seclusion, I will live in seclusion with you.
If you're willing to stay in the capital, then we can live there, okay?
Shen Chu was deeply moved, not expecting that he already had a plan.
"When you left Yangzhou, you told me to wait for you in Yangzhou so you could come back and marry me. That's when I guessed part of your plan."
Later, Uncle Zhong said that Brother Lu Zhan and my younger brother might still be alive, and there might be clues in the capital.
I then thought I'd make a trip to Beijing, not only to see them, but also to work together with you to strive for our future."
Pei Yuan held her, kissing her forehead tenderly and affectionately, then the tip of her nose, and finally the kiss landed on her lips.
He murmured, "It turns out that it's not just me running towards Achu, my Achu is also trying to run towards me."
Shen Chu leaned against his chest, listening to his rapid heartbeat, and smiled gently.
"So, would you like to hear my plan as well?"
"I would like to hear the details."
The two leaned their heads together and whispered to each other.
Until voices could be heard outside.
"Halt! My lord is inside. Who are you?"
"Your Highness? Your Highness is Prince Rui?"
"yes."
"I've finally met him! I was just looking for him."
It was Lu Zhong's voice. He became visibly excited when he heard that the person inside was Pei Yuan.
Shen Chu quickly jumped off Pei Yuan's lap, tugged at her clothes, and called out, "Uncle Zhong, come in."
Lu Zhong, with a full beard, appeared at the door and stared directly at Pei Yuan.
"You are Prince Rui? You..."
When his gaze fell on Pei Yuan's face, his expression changed drastically.
