That smile was tinged with bitterness. "He was so thoughtful, but what else did he say?"
"The Crown Prince said that with such a handsome man before him, it would be quite unfortunate if some ignorant woman dragged him home and ruined his reputation..."
As Qin Xun spoke, seeing Xu Yiran's face gradually darken, he stepped forward and said, "Then, Young Master Xu, are you able to walk now, or should I help you..."
"Go by yourself."
Xu Yiran's narrow phoenix eyes were filled with coldness; she was finally angry.
He loved Xie Lingqin, truly loved her, every little thing about her seeped into his very bones.
“You can tell the Crown Prince, Xie Lingqin, that I am still determined to have her.”
...
Meanwhile, in the long alleyway covered with fallen leaves, a man and a woman strolled leisurely, their clasped hands tightening and tightening.
Then……
It seems that a single glance, a synchronized heartbeat, is all it takes to eliminate the need for any words.
Yuwen Yao suddenly stopped, turned Xie Lingqin's shoulders, and kissed her, a kiss that was both unexpected and anticipated.
Warm lips pressed against Xie Lingqin's, tender and lingering, their breaths quickening.
Their intertwined breaths and embracing figures made the trees blush and the black tiles of the high walls blush with autumn red.
Zihe, Tingfeng, and Tinghai, who were not far from the two, all retreated and held their breath, as if afraid that they might disturb the picturesque scene.
For some reason, Zihe's eyes welled up with tears at that moment.
The Crown Prince loved the young lady so much, and the young lady loved the Crown Prince just as much.
very nice.
The kiss went from deep and tender to intense, until the body was burning hot, as if the other person wanted to devour the other person whole before stopping.
Yuwen Yao pulled Xie Lingqin into his arms, resting his jade-like chin on her head, his breath hot and passionate, "Have you forgiven me?"
"What can you do if I don't forgive Liang?"
Xie Lingqin sighed softly, wrapping her arms around Yuwen Yao's strong waist. "You kissed me, hugged me, and bullied me like this. You even confessed to me so shamelessly and without any way out. If I don't forgive you and you don't want me anymore, what am I going to do..."
Xie Lingqin's face flushed, and her tone was clearly sarcastic.
"So, you're mine, remember that."
"Okay, I got it."
The sound of her voice after the kiss was a little hoarse, which made Yuwen Yao tighten his grip on Xie Lingqin, and his breathing, which had just calmed down, seemed to quicken.
Moreover, in a certain place...
Xie Lingqin froze, her voice trembling with panic, "Yuwen Yao, you..."
"Don't move, just let me hold you like this, don't move."
Yuwen Yao's voice was strained, and Xie Lingqin could hear the barely suppressed emotion in it. Her fingers tightened around his waist, and she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Actually, if... you really want to..."
"Don't speak, I'll make it to our wedding night."
Yuwen Yao interrupted Xie Lingqin.
Xie Lingqin was speechless, yet deeply moved, and secretly rolled her eyes. "Aren't you the Crown Prince? How come your self-control is so poor?"
"Yes, when I met you, I lost all self-control. I miss you, I can't live without you, I want to kiss you, hold you. I'm so glad you're willing to do the same..."
"What I meant was that I could take you back to your residence to soak in the hot springs, that's all."
Xie Lingqin suddenly pushed Yuwen Yao away gently, her blushing face showing a mischievous smile.
"Xie Lingqin!"
Yuwen Yao's eyes darkened, his voice filled with deep affection, and he pulled Xie Lingxin into his arms again.
"Xie Lingqin, I don't want your name to be associated with other men. If it has to be, it must be me, Yuwen Yao."
"That's being domineering, not jealous."
You can understand it as wanting everything about you.
"So, I guess I can't blame you for suddenly making our relationship public, can I? I bet the whole capital is talking about us now. How are you going to explain this to the Emperor?"
"We've given our full explanation, but from now on, we'll face more dangers in the shadows."
Upon hearing this, Xie Lingqin sighed, "Yes, the Emperor did say before that he would bestow a marriage upon me, you know..."
"Then let him grant the marriage."
Xie Lingqin lowered her brows slightly, stepped back a little from Yuwen Yao's embrace, and looked up at him. The faint sunlight fell on his head, as if coating him with a layer of clear light, so beautiful that it made people forget to breathe.
Xie Lingqin smiled gently, her red lips parted slightly, "You are so confident."
"So, if that day ever comes, will you marry me?"
Xie Lingqin suddenly smiled, her smile bright and sparkling, with a unique blush that could make people fall in love, "Well done, ten miles of red bridal procession, the world is splendid."
"good!"
As Yuwen Yao answered, he immediately grabbed Xie Lingqin around the waist, and with a swift movement, headed straight for the General's Mansion.
"Your...your brother is quite obedient."
Amidst the rushing wind, Xie Lingqin blushed and muttered softly.
"What brothers?"
Yuwen Yao heard this and was slightly puzzled.
Xie Lingqin...
"Your brother."
After saying this, Xie Lingqin raised her hand to cover her face.
But……
"Xie Lingqin, your ears are all red."
"No way." Xie Lingxin hurriedly reached out to touch it, and then met Yuwen Yao's ambiguous smile.
"Yes, it's red here."
Yuwen Yao said, and before he could finish speaking, he suddenly captured Xie Lingqin's lips in his mouth, and they were locked in a passionate embrace for a while.
This entanglement continued until they returned to the General's Mansion, entered the Clear Water Pavilion, and rushed into the main house, where they remained tightly intertwined and inseparable.
“Yuwen Yao… um…” Xie Lingqin pushed Yuwen Yao away a little, her hands against his chest, “I’m about to be ripped out, and I still have to see people.”
