She was still not satisfied even after I changed the hot water several times. She wouldn't let me serve her and even threw a tantrum inside.
Hearing that there was suddenly no sound inside, Chunyi wanted to get up to go and see, but suddenly a hand reached out and grabbed Chunyi's shoulder.
Feeling a hand on her shoulder, Chunyi turned around in fright, only to see the Crown Prince standing there.
"This servant greets..." Chunyi was about to bow to the Crown Prince when he stopped her.
Is your young lady inside?
"Miss is inside; she's taking a bath," Chunyi replied softly, her head bowed.
"Alright, I understand. You may leave. You don't need to serve me anymore." Upon hearing that Ren Nuanyun was taking a bath, a glint of light flashed in the Crown Prince's eyes.
So he waved his hand, signaling that spring was over.
Chunyi glanced inside, then remembered that Ren Nuanyun and the Crown Prince had already consummated their marriage, so she left without much hesitation.
The prince entered the inner room and saw Ren Nuanyun bathing on the other side of the screen.
The room was brightly lit by candlelight, and Ren Nuanyun's graceful figure was faintly visible behind the screen. The person inside was clearly unaware that someone had entered their room.
At this moment, Ren Nuanyun, who had recovered her senses, looked at the red marks on her body and felt a little regretful. If time could turn back, that incident would never have happened. Why was she torturing herself like this?
Ren Nuanyun leaned against the bathtub, her long, slender, fair arms draped over her sides, and let out a long sigh.
Hearing the sighs from inside, the Crown Prince paused slightly, then picked up a handful of flower petals that had been soaked in water and gently sprinkled them on Ren Nuanyun's body.
Ren Nuanyun was startled by the sudden shower of petals. She turned around abruptly and found the Crown Prince looking at her with a smile.
Ren Nuanyun breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't allow anyone to serve her when she was taking a bath, and Chunyi definitely wouldn't have the guts to come in at that time, so she thought some petty thief had broken into the room.
"Crown Prince? What brings you here?" Ren Nuanyun stood up in shock, then immediately remembered that she was still naked, so she crossed her arms and squatted down.
Two blushes flashed across her face, and she stammered, "Crown Prince? What are you doing here? That brat Chunyi, why didn't she tell me?"
"I told her not to say it." The Crown Prince chuckled softly, looking Ren Nuanyun up and down.
There were only a few petals in the bathtub, offering no real cover. Ren Nuanyun squatted inside with her arms crossed, adding to the allure of the scene. The half-concealed look was the most seductive.
The Crown Prince was clearly very satisfied with Ren Nuanyun's body, his eyes roaming freely in the bathtub.
"Your Highness, please go ahead and let me get dressed." Ren Nuanyun blushed and didn't dare to look up at the Crown Prince.
Although the two had already been intimate, Ren Nuanyun still couldn't bear having a man beside her watching her shower.
"Nuanyun, we've already been completely honest with each other, why are you still so shy?" The Crown Prince was very satisfied with Ren Nuanyun's reaction. Seeing that a faint pink tinge had appeared on Ren Nuanyun's exposed shoulders, the Crown Prince's smile deepened.
"Your Highness~" Ren Nuanyun looked up at the Crown Prince, then quickly lowered her head and called out in a sweet voice.
The Crown Prince's anger dissipated completely when he saw Ren Nuanyun taking a bath, and the person in front of him was the one he loved.
The crown prince was at the prime of his life, full of vigor and vitality. With such a beautiful woman in front of him, how could he possibly resist?
So, the Crown Prince reached out and grabbed Ren Nuanyun's arm, pulling her out of the bathtub with a scream and the sound of splashing water.
Ren Nuanyun felt dizzy and then found herself lying in the Crown Prince's arms.
"Your Highness, my clothes, my clothes." Completely naked in the Crown Prince's arms, Ren Nuanyun had no idea what to do.
She only has two hands; she can protect the upper body, but not the lower body.
Seeing Ren Nuanyun so flustered, the Crown Prince was overjoyed and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Hearing the Crown Prince's laughter, Ren Nuanyun suddenly looked up at him. When she saw the way he was scrutinizing her, she finally realized what was happening and immediately reached out to cover the Crown Prince's eyes.
Despite having his view blocked, the Crown Prince was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "Since Nuanyun has blocked my eyes, then you shall be my eyes and tell me where I should go next."
The prince paused as he spoke.
Ren Nuanyun remained silent for a while, and then, seeing that the Crown Prince really didn't move, and worried that the Crown Prince didn't know where her bed was, she could only weakly offer a hint.
"Two steps to the left, then to the right, um, three steps straight ahead, that's it."
Following Ren Nuanyun's instructions, the Crown Prince walked to the bedside, then gently put Ren Nuanyun down. As she left his embrace, Ren Nuanyun quickly pulled the blanket next to her and wrapped it around her body.
Looking at Ren Nuanyun, who was wrapped up tightly, the Crown Prince smiled, slowly opened the bed curtains, and then took off his shoes and got into bed.
After a tender moment, the Crown Prince held Ren Nuanyun and sighed contentedly. He glanced at the red marks on Ren Nuanyun's body and knew that she had rubbed them herself. The Crown Prince touched them tenderly.
She asked in disbelief, "Who takes a bath like you? Your skin is so delicate, look how badly it's been damaged."
Ren Nuanyun was held in the Crown Prince's arms. Upon hearing this, she stiffened. After thinking for a moment, she casually replied, "I was just in a bad mood, so I scrubbed a bit too hard at the time."
"Are you in a bad mood? Why? Did some idiot offend you again?" The Crown Prince lifted Ren Nuanyun's chin with one hand and couldn't help but kiss her lips.
"No." Ren Nuanyun shook her head, then looked up at the Crown Prince and said aggrievedly, "I just thought, Xu Yingying is so beautiful, if she really marries the Crown Prince, will the Crown Prince really be able to resist loving her all the time?"
"Nuanyun, don't overthink it. I only married Xu Yingying because of the power behind her. Otherwise, I wouldn't even give her a second glance. Besides, you are my Crown Princess. Even if she enters the family, she will only be the Crown Prince's concubine. You are the principal wife, so you will always be superior to her. What else do you have to worry about?"
The Crown Prince had come today intending to ask Ren Nuanyun why she had taken action earlier. Seeing that Ren Nuanyun had brought it up herself, he began to explain and understood why she hadn't taken action.
"But I just don't want to. I only want the Crown Prince to be mine alone. Crown Prince, Nuanyun really likes you. I only want to be with you for the rest of my life. I don't want to see other women around the Crown Prince. I would be very jealous."
Ren Nuanyun hugged the prince's waist and acted coquettishly.
The Crown Prince could tell that Ren Nuanyun liked him very much, and he also sensed her possessiveness towards him in her words. He understood that this was because Ren Nuanyun liked him too much.
"Nuanyun, don't worry, this is just a temporary measure. Once I'm in that position, I'll immediately write a letter of divorce, divorce Xu Yingying, and love only you forever. Moreover, only you are suitable to be my empress."
The Crown Prince also held Ren Nuanyun in his arms and spoke with great conviction.
