Chapter 65 (8,000 words) Doesn’t the puppy like…
The hot summer heat was not as hot as Xuan Yizheng's soft kiss, which was warm, cool and burning, making Yin Xing feel like he was floating in the air and in a trance.
"Master Xiao Yin, are you still not well?"
"I'll be right there."
Yin Xing came back to his senses, raised his hand to take out the case file and handed it to the official. His heart was beating fast, and the faint scorching heat left by Xuan Yizhen and his breath like a feather brushing against his skin made him tremble.
In the afternoon, Yin Xing was sitting in the dining hall eating. A hot wind blew over him, and he felt extremely hot. He wiped the sweat off his cheeks with an embroidered handkerchief. He tilted his head and saw that the clouds in the sky outside the window were dim and the air pressure was low, which seemed like a sign of a storm.
Jiang Yun came over with the food and sat down beside him. He asked, "By the way, where did you get the 10,000 taels as compensation?"
"Because I took out my daily salary savings." Yin Xing looked away and replied. Seeing Jiang Yun eating alone, he was a little confused.
"The interest rate on deposits in a money shop can't be so high, right?" Jiang Yun was very suspicious that Yin Xing was using his salary to lend money at high interest rates.
That kind of thing has always brought disaster to many gambler families.
Yin Xing sipped his soup, meeting Jiang Yun's inquiring gaze. He spoke frankly, "I also think the interest rate is high, but think about it, Princess Zhang Hua wouldn't have any reason to lie to me."
The most important thing is that Yin Xing has been punished, and Xuan Yizheng will not break his promise.
Jiang Yun was silent, thinking that Yin Xing was a good person in every way, with the only shortcoming being that he was too obedient to his princess wife.
Guodu Money House is not a philanthropist, so how could it possibly triple the principal? This is simply a losing business.
It was probably Princess Zhanghua who gave Yin Xing some compensation in silver.
"Why didn't you have dinner with Miss Liu today?" Yin Xing asked curiously.
"She was worried about the little girl being alone, so she left me and went back to her residence to eat." Jiang Yun picked up the green sweet potato leaves with chopsticks and chewed them with his teeth without tasting the food.
Seeing Jiang Yun's gloomy expression, Yin Xing realized that she had been bringing up something irrelevant. She said, "I see. It's really not appropriate for a little girl to stay in the Dali Temple all the time."
The morgue was a place that even adults didn't want to go to, let alone a little girl.
Jiang Yun sighed resignedly, "Yeah, I've been looking for some Jianghu work lately."
When it comes to his work in the underworld, Yin Xing can only think of bloody scenes of fighting, killing, swords slashing, and heads falling to the ground.
"But you're a Dali Temple constable. Isn't that kind of underworld work illegal?"
"Don't worry, I'm not taking private jobs under my real name."
When Yin Xing heard this, he felt that Jiang Yun seemed to be engaged in some gray industry. He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yun quickly finished his meal and sipped his soup. His eyes fell on Yin Xing's worried face and he couldn't help laughing: "What's with that expression? I'm not doing any illegal business."
Although there are many cases of murders being bought and sold in the underworld.
"I'm just curious about what exactly a Jianghu job is?"
"It's mainly about doing things that require the brainpower and brawn of a detective, but that the government doesn't usually handle."
Seeing that Jiang Yun was speaking so vaguely, Yin Xing did not continue to ask questions for a while.
Jiang Yun put down his tea and said, "But my affairs are relatively easy to handle. When your father, the Marquis of Xizhou, learned of the death of his two sons, did he ever write to you?"
It is impossible for a normal father to not feel any emotion when his two sons died in an accident in the capital.
Yin Xing shook his head and replied, "Princess Zhanghua said she would have someone arrange this matter properly. I haven't contacted the Marquis of Xizhou yet."
In fact, Yin Xing was also worried that Xizhou Hou would get angry and do something evil on the front line, and then he would be implicated and take the blame.
Those who commit treason will be executed along with their entire clan. This is not just a joke!
"I didn't realize your princess wife was so understanding."
"Of course, she is very gentle and kind!"
Jiang Yun didn't expect Yin Xing to not understand his joke. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I have something else to do. Goodbye."
If the Marquis of Xizhou had not made any unusual moves, this matter might have ended there.
However, if the Marquis of Xizhou develops rebellious thoughts because of this, Yin Xing will undoubtedly be caught in the conflict between the royal family and the aristocratic families, and he will be crushed to pieces if he is not careful.
The royal consorts of the dynasty who were caught up in the chaos of the court often did not have a good ending.
After a while, the two went their separate ways. Yin Xing walked back to the main warehouse from the corridor. His forehead was sweating. He raised his hand to roll up his robe and scooped up water to wash his face.
In the silence, water droplets falling into the basin make a clear sound, like the sound of bells echoing in the ears, full of graininess.
Yin Xing paused, his body subconsciously tensed, his breathing unsteady. He lowered his eyes to the fair skin between his arms. The mottled red marks were no longer visible. He muttered with a flushed face, "Is this a sequelae?!"
At that time, because there was no order from Xuan Yizheng, Yin Xing did not dare to move even though he was trembling violently, for fear that he would be punished by the ringing of the bell on his body.
The more nervous he was, the more sensitive he became. Coupled with Hong Zhu's punishment, Yin Xing's mind was highly concentrated at that time, making it even more difficult to control himself.
But then again, Yin Xing was still scared that Xuan Yizheng could easily take out a pair of sharp scissors.
Could it be that the place where I hid the scissors was not secretive enough, so they were discovered?
However, Yin Xing checked the items in the cabinet and found them neatly arranged with no signs of being rummaged through. He really didn't understand what was wrong.
The water droplets dripping from the tip of Yin Xingting's nose disrupted the reflection of the waves, and the shadow in the basin gradually became blurred.
In the courtyard, ripples appeared on the emerald green pond due to the touch of a dragonfly, and silently spread to the clusters of flowers reflected on the shore, gradually turning pink and white, as brilliant as spring flowers.
The flower clusters in the pavilion were neatly trimmed and arranged in a patchwork pattern. A cold, white jade hand gently stroked the tender pink hibiscus before sharply snipping the branches with a pair of prunes. Xuan Yizhen lowered his eyes to admire the flowers in his palm and said, "The hibiscus is blooming beautifully this autumn."
The female official replied respectfully, "Yes, these hibiscus flowers are particularly bright and full."
"You handled the last matter very well, but the Marquis and his wife of Xizhou need to pay close attention to their movements. I don't want to be involved in the same crisis again." Xuan Yizheng spoke lightly, raised his hand to put the flower branches into the glass bottle, and arranged them carefully.
"My lord, do you want to prevent the Marquis of Xizhou and his wife from ever having the chance to enter the capital and stir up trouble again?" The female official Chunli hesitated.
These two are Prince Consort Yin’s biological parents, so we have to leave some leeway.
"I didn't say that. The war is getting more and more stalemated. If the emperor can't come up with a better solution, the noble families won't waste their fighting power in vain. Someone will be killed. So we must be on guard against the Marquis of Xizhou saying things he shouldn't say."
"I understand."
The female official Chunli packed up the flower scissors and other things, thinking that it would be a bit troublesome if the fact that Prince Consort Yin was a woman was leaked.
It was verified that the killer who chased Prince Consort Yin into the villa had followed him all the way from Xizhou. This shows how cruel the Marquis and his wife of Xizhou were in concealing this matter.
Prince Consort Yin was very lucky to be able to enter the capital alive.
"Put these scissors back where they belong. Don't mess with their positions."
"yes."
The female official Chunli came to her senses and responded, feeling very puzzled as to why sharp objects such as flower scissors were placed in the cabinet, as if they were deliberately hidden.
But if Princess Zhanghua wanted to hide the flower scissors and other things, she could just order her maid to take the items away from her residence. There was really no need to be so cumbersome.
However, Princess Zhanghua had her reasons for saying so, so it was not appropriate to ask too much.
In the silence, a carrier pigeon flapped its wings, circled and landed.
The female official Chunli raised her hand to take out the letter, stepped closer and placed it on the table.
Xuan Yizhen unfolded the letter and lowered her eyes to read it. Her beautiful eyes were calm and quiet as she spoke slowly, "Use the talisman as a seal and have the Wanqi family's fiefdom, the state capital, send more patrols as soon as possible. Also, have someone closely monitor any movements in the western suburbs of the capital."
"Yes, sir." The female official Chunli responded and took action.
Talismans are usually secret orders of the highest level. Could it be that Princess Zhanghua discovered that someone was trying to harm the Wanqi family?
But at this time, the emperor and other families are paying attention to the Xiahou family. Who would want to launch a sneak attack?
The afternoon heat wave was surging, but the sky was already covered with dark clouds. The rumbling sound of thunder gradually came from far away, and heavy rain poured down from the sky, catching the pedestrians on the streets of the capital off guard.
The strong wind blew the case files, flipping them around. Yin Xing raised his hand to organize the things, then tilted his head to look at the sudden heavy rain outside the window, feeling cool.
However, the windows were rattling, and a lot of rain was blown in by the wind, leaving spots and wetting the ground.
Yin Xing quickly packed up the sealed case files, raised his hand and walked to the window. His breath was filled with the smell of thunderstorm. He looked at the heavy rain outside the yard falling on the scorching ground, and gradually a hazy mist rose up, like misty steam.
The violent rain, mixed with the smell of soil, raged in the wind, passing through the hall, with dense rain curtains floating in it, which was quite spectacular.
However, when Yin Xing thought about the fact that he came to the Dali Temple on horseback today, he realized that something was wrong.
If the heavy rain continues, even holding an umbrella probably won't be of much use.
Fortunately, in the evening, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, the sunset glow suddenly appeared, the rain became much lighter, and there were signs that the rain would stop and the sky would clear up.
Yin Xing returned to the villa and looked at the lush flowers and green plants in the courtyard, which were washed by rain and had fresh colors, which was particularly eye-catching.
When we entered the outer hall of the waterside pavilion from the corridor, we saw maids tidying up the messy and wet ground caused by the heavy rain. Many bright flowers and branches were scattered on the ground, which was a pity.
However, when Yin Xing entered the inner room and looked at Xuan Yizhen who was fiddling with flowers and plants, there was no sign of concern on her face.
Yin Xing felt that Xuan Yizhen liked flowers and plants, but perhaps his affection was not like that of ordinary people, but rather he was too calm and indifferent.
"What's wrong?" Xuan Yizheng tilted his head to look at Yin Xing. His jade-like face was very gentle, but his beautiful eyes were like a hazy rain curtain, like water, or a misty forest, making it impossible to explore the truth.
"It's nothing. It rained so heavily just now that I almost got soaked." Yin Xing walked closer, raised his hands to hug Xuan Yizheng, and spoke affectionately.
Regardless of whether it is true or false, Yin Xing cherishes Xuan Yizhen's gentleness and kindness.
Xuan Yizhen raised his hand and brushed across Yin Xing's robe, finding no trace of it getting wet. He met her beautiful eyes and chuckled softly, "If you insist, you should be like a drowned puppy."
Yin Xing's ears burned. He looked at Xuan Yizhen, who was teasing him with a smile in her beautiful eyes. It seemed to have become more real. He leaned in and kissed her thin lips, and said in a clear and resentful voice, "Yizhen, don't you know that puppies can bite people?"
"Well, now I know. Does the puppy want to take a bath first?" Xuan Yizheng pinched Yin Xing's soft earlobe with his fingertips, kneaded and played with it, and called with a faint smile.
"Well, I can go by myself." Yin Xing replied shamefully, knowing when to stop.
After he finished speaking, Yin Xing let go of his hand and stepped inside, so as not to miss the meal due to the hassle.
Xuan Yizheng watched Yin Xing leave, pursed his thin lips, feeling regretful. He thought she couldn't be that bad.
Soon, the sunset glow that had been scattered across the waterside pavilion gradually faded. The night breeze was pleasant. Yin Xing and Xuan Yizhen dined together, muttering, "This rain has made things much cooler."
Xuan Yizhen tasted the food with jade chopsticks in hand and asked slowly, "Emperor, there will be an autumn hunt in the western suburbs in a few days. Do you want to go?"
"Autumn Hunting, why didn't I hear about it last year?"
"Naturally, last year's disaster was severe, the treasury was strained, and the Emperor had no spare money."
Yin Xing tasted the delicious food and said without hesitation: "If Yizhen goes, I will go too."
However, Yin Xing felt that Xuan Yizheng's physical condition was such that he would not participate in the autumn hunt.
Xuan Yizhen looked at Yin Xing, who was full of trust, and his expression became softer. He said slowly, "That's right, a puppy always follows its master closely."
"Cough cough!" Yin Xing almost choked. He drank tea uncomfortably, but it couldn't relieve the heat on his face.
I have to say, Yin Xing really admires Xuan Yizheng for being able to say such shameful words calmly.
After a while, Yin Xing finally recovered and abruptly changed the subject: "Yizhen, can you shoot arrows and hunt?"
Xuan Yizhen shook his head and replied calmly, "Noble ladies in the dynasty are all good at horseback riding and archery, and the princesses and dukes of the royal family are no less so. It's a pity that I'm not in good health."
The status of women in the dynasty was established due to the outstanding military achievements of Princess Tai'an and the Women's Army at the founding of the country, so there would not be much difference.
But Yin Xing didn't seem to understand any of this, so Xuan Yizheng could only explain it to her.
Hearing this, Yin Xing hurriedly comforted him, "It's okay, I will try my best then!"
Although Yin Xing's riding and archery skills are average, other princesses and their husbands will take action, so he can't fall behind too much.
"But I don't really want you to go on the autumn hunt."
"Why?"
Xuan Yizhen looked into Yin Xing's sparkling eyes, which seemed to dim due to his rejection, and could only respond, "It is said that the Third Princess and Du Ruo will go autumn hunting, and the puppy might be kidnapped."
Yin Xing blinked at Xuan Yizhen, who seemed to be feeling resentful and uneasy, and replied with a hot face: "No, the puppy is very loyal to its owner."
It’s a bit shameful, but if it can make Xuan Yizheng happy, then it’s nothing!
After he finished speaking, Xuan Yizheng curved his brows and smiled faintly, like a solitary orchid in a valley, with an unusual and strange beauty in every frown and smile.
Seeing such a graceful figure, Yin Xing's heart beat rapidly. He buried his head in eating rice in a useless way, trying to suppress his restlessness and regain some composure.
Xuan Yizhen held the jade chopsticks in his hand and served Yin Xing some food. He said softly, "Then the puppy must stay close to the owner and don't wander around."
Yin Xing was silent, wondering if Xuan Yizhen had any new hobbies?!
But then Yin Xing remembered what happened to the bell last time and thought it was normal.
The voices died down, and the wind outside the pavilion was clear and refreshing. Summer was coming to an end, and the heat wave had subsided a lot.
The autumn weather was clear and the sun was high in the sky. In the afternoon, the main treasury hall of the Dali Temple was especially quiet.
Yin Xing poured tea while Jiang Yun sat beside him, unable to stop joking, "The autumn hunting in the western suburbs is very beautiful. It's really enviable to be able to travel with your salary."
Yin Xing handed the tea to Jiang Yun and said with embarrassment: "My archery skills are very average. If other princesses and their consorts are very good, it might be embarrassing."
"Then why don't you just not go on the autumn hunt?"
"But I want to go to the western suburbs with her. It's a rare opportunity."
Xuan Yizheng rarely goes out on her own initiative on weekdays. Moreover, summer is coming to an end, and when autumn comes, the frost, coldness and fog will be heavy, so she can only stay in the villa.
Jiang Yun was drinking tea when he suddenly felt a sour taste in it. He couldn't bear to look at Yin Xing.
I really don't understand how Yin Xing and Princess Zhang Hua can maintain such a sweet and loving relationship.
"Qiu Lie, you will have followers by your side. Just send a few of them to help you. It's so easy."
"Are you sure this isn't cheating?"
Jiang Yun was almost speechless after hearing Yin Xing's blunt words. He could only say, "Don't worry, you won't be the only one cheating. Most of the royal consorts have been tortured by the princesses and may not even be able to hold a bow and arrow."
Yin Xing recalled the two consorts he had met at the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony last year. They both looked tall and strong, but they also looked listless. He inquired, "Why do princesses like to torture their consorts?"
Yin Xing also participated in the princess-viewing banquet. Although his eyes were blindfolded, he could hear the specific process with his ears.
The princesses choose their husbands-in-law based on their unilateral preferences and have absolute right to choose. I really don't understand how it has become a torturous situation where they are tired of each other.
"Who knows what goes on in the boudoir? In short, a royal consort must learn to read people's expressions, otherwise he will be killed or injured."
"So Princess Zhang Hua is truly untainted by mud!"
Jiang Yun looked at the red silk ribbon hanging from Yin Xing's wrist, wanting to say something but stopping himself, and ultimately did not ask her about her and Princess Zhang Hua's private affairs in the boudoir.
Having worked in the Dali Temple for many years, Jiang Yun has always had good observation skills, while Yin Xing's cover-up was too poor.
So Jiang Yun had caught a glimpse of the marks on Yin Xing's arm, but she never confessed, so he could only pretend not to see them.
One is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. It is really impossible for outsiders to persuade them.
Not long after, Jiang Yun finished his tea and saw Yin Xing finish a set of footwork, and then he was ready to leave the main warehouse.
Unexpectedly, Yin Xing took out a package from the cabinet and called out solemnly: "I haven't spent all my salary this month. You can use it to help you out in an emergency."
Jiang Yun didn't move, and his usual playful expression disappeared. He said seriously, "I'll find a way myself, but you can't just take the money. Besides, you just paid the compensation, so save some money."
"Then consider it as payment for the errand I asked you to do for me."
"What errand do you want to run?"
Yin Xing hesitated and whispered, "I want to know the details of Queen Wanqi's illness. Are you willing to help?"
If Queen Wanqi's illness was caused by poisoning, then Yin Xing wanted to know in advance what Xuan Yizhen would become in the future so that he could be mentally prepared.
Jiang Yun looked at Yin Xing's serious expression, raised his hand to close the window, and asked in confusion: "Why don't you ask your princess wife about this matter?"
"She doesn't want me to know, and the entire royal family seems to be covering up Queen Wanqi's illness, so do you dare to check?" Yin Xing said evasively, not wanting to mention Xuan Yizheng's privacy.
After he finished speaking, Yin Xing did not wait for Jiang Yun's response, but the purse in his hand was taken away swiftly.
"This amount of money may not be enough. You should save more in the future." Jiang Yun weighed the silver in his palm and spoke rudely.
"Okay!" Yin Xing replied with a raised eyebrow.
Then Jiang Yun left the main warehouse without stopping. His heroic eyes and brows did not show cynicism, but gloomy instead.
Probably, what Yin Xing wanted to investigate was not Empress Wanqi's illness but Princess Zhanghua's.
However, since Princess Zhanghua concealed it, the royal family must have some important secret.
That year, Empress Wanqi suddenly fell seriously ill, and the situation in the court became turbulent.
It is probably no coincidence that my mother died at that time. There must be many connections behind all this.
Outside the hall, the sun rises high, its brilliance is dazzling, yet it is hard to look directly at, just like the human heart.
As time passed, the sun faded away, and gradually it was the day of the autumn hunt. A huge procession appeared on the long streets of the capital. The princesses rode in carriages, and the princes and their husbands still rode horses. The scene was no different from the day of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.
However, Yin Xing was surprised to find that the second prince had recovered and participated in the autumn hunt.
Lightning strikes are natural disasters that rarely recover even with modern medical technology.
Compared with the three princes, most of the princes-in-law looked unhappy. The eldest prince-in-law was particularly tall and strong, while the second prince-in-law was relatively thin but not frail. At this moment, both of them had sad faces and whispered to each other.
"I've been practicing archery hard lately, but I can only barely draw a strong bow with a force of two jin. I'm afraid it won't work."
"That's pretty good. My hand injury hasn't healed yet, so I'm afraid it would be good if I can pull a bow weighing one jin."
Yin Xing was silent. Chang said that a force of a thousand kilograms is enough, but a bow and arrow weighing one kilogram weighs thirty kilograms. Could they be joking?
At this moment, Yin Xing discovered that another person was even more depressed than himself. He was the husband of Princess Xinyang. He looked handsome, but unfortunately there was a bruise on his left cheek that looked like a shoe sole.
Yin Xing was shocked by his own guess. He silently shifted his gaze away and looked straight ahead, thinking that the princesses and duchesses were really powerful!
As we walked out of the capital along the official road and gradually entered the mountains, we saw flags fluttering, the sky was clear, the air was fresh, the view was broad, and the scenery was beautiful.
Yin Xing secretly took the reins to find Xuan Yizheng's carriage and passed through the team. Unexpectedly, he ran into Du Ruo by coincidence, and sighed inwardly with a headache.
Then Yin Xing turned his horse around without hesitation. Du Ruo looked at the flying scarlet hairband leisurely, but was not in a hurry.
The third princess raised her hand to lift the curtain and looked in the direction of his gaze. Her eyes fell on Du Ruo and she asked suspiciously, "Why is Yin Xing so shy about you?"
Du Ruo retracted his gaze and replied coldly, "Lambs are probably always timid."
"If you like fair and energetic girls like this, I can find some for you. Why do you have to keep an eye on Yin Xing?"
"Third Princess, it seems you don't know the joy of plunder."
After he finished speaking, the third princess showed disdain on her face, thinking that fun was nothing more than a bad habit of killing people.
The sound of horse hooves faded away, and Yin Xing returned to his original place in shame, not daring to look for Xuan Yizheng again.
The team continued on their journey until they reached the western suburbs, where they finally stopped to rest at dusk.
Soon, various tents were set up and flames flickered. Yin Xing followed Xuan Yizheng into the tent and curiously explored the furnishings inside. There were low couches, screens, and everything else, including several incense burners.
"Tired?"
"It's okay, just a little uncomfortable."
Yin Xing sat down with Xuan Yizhen, leaning against her, and was too embarrassed to explain in detail that his butt was a little sore from riding a horse.
In ancient times, traveling was so tiring that all the bones in the body felt like they were falling apart.
Suddenly I understand why Xuan Yizhen doesn't like to go out.
Xuan Yizhen rested his palm naturally on Yin Xing's side. He lowered his eyes to watch her thick eyelashes fluttering as if on their own accord. His throat tightened slightly as he spoke, "There's a hot spring in the western suburbs. If you're not feeling well, you can go take a bath later."
"Okay, I was thinking it might be inconvenient to shower." Yin Xing smiled with a curved eyebrow. After regaining some composure, he didn't think much about it.
Soon, the setting sun faded and the night enveloped the mountains, bringing a sense of deep and ghostly beauty.
Yin Xing followed Xuan Yizhen to the hot spring, only to find that the place was deeper than he had imagined. He held her hand in his and whispered, "Yizhen, won't anyone come here?"
"Don't worry, I've ordered my maids to guard outside, and there's a light here, so no one will accidentally stray in." Xuan Yizhen's eyes fell on the screen near the hot spring. He raised his hand to put down the lamp, then turned his head to look at Yin Xing's timid appearance. "Now take off your clothes and let me take a look."
"Ah?" Yin Xing didn't expect the words to be so sudden and was a little stunned.
Seeing that Yin Xing didn't move, Xuan Yizhen had no choice but to untie her belt and said, "Didn't you say you were not feeling well?"
Yin Xing noticed that his collar was slightly loose and was immediately startled. He stammered, "It's not serious, it will be fine tomorrow."
After saying that, Yin Xing raised his hands to undress and stepped into the hot spring without hesitation, fearing that Xuan Yizheng would hold him down and observe his injuries. That scene would be too embarrassing.
There was a splash of water. Xuan Yizhen had not expected Yin Xing to move so quickly. He watched the naked figure enter the water and said helplessly, "Okay, it will be the same if I apply the medicine later."
After saying that, Xuan Yizheng raised his hands to undress, not avoiding Yin Xing's wet gaze at all.
Yin Xing in the hot spring was stunned for a moment, blinking as he looked at the slender figure with her clothes peeling off, her face as cold and white as jade. He immediately looked away with a blush!
When the rustling sound of water came to her ears, Yin Xing stared at it intently, like a nun in meditation.
"What are you doing so far away?" Xuan Yizheng raised his hand and placed it on Yin Xing's side and called softly.
"I didn't do anything." Yin Xing's head was filled with the cold white of the moon. She was tall and slender, with a slim figure, which was too shocking.
After he finished speaking, Yin Xing felt his ear being touched and it felt a little itchy.
Xuan Yizhen raised her hand and pinched Yin Xing's earlobe, asking her to turn her head. She lowered her beautiful eyes and smiled gently, saying, "You are so careless that your hair got wet. It will be difficult to dry it at night."
Yin Xing stared at Xuan Yizhen, whose long hair was tied up. Her neck was slender and straight. Her heart was beating like thunder. She responded awkwardly, "Yeah, I forgot just now."
In the quiet place, the night wind blows and the water mist is thick. The huge mountains are not quiet at all, and you can even hear the sound of birds singing.
"Are you scared when you hear these sounds?" Xuan Yizheng asked casually as his palm floated on the water.
"A little bit." Yin Xing leaned towards Xuan Yizheng silently, not daring to look outside the screen.
It's really easy to feel insecure in this kind of situation.
Xuan Yizhen raised his thin lips slightly, put his arms around Yin Xing who was nestled in his arms, lowered his head to her face, and coaxed her softly, "Don't be afraid."
Yin Xing's face flushed, his heartbeat quickened unconsciously, and he explained, "I'm not afraid. There are no ghosts in this world."
"I thought the puppy was afraid of being bitten by a wild animal."
“…”
Yin Xing was unable to answer these words and seemed to suspect that Xuan Yizheng was deliberately teasing him!
Xuan Yizhen stretched out his arms to wrap around Yin Xing, then sank his palms into the water. His eyes fell on her cheek, observing her expression, and he said slowly, "Don't move, I'm just checking."
Yin Xing hadn't expected Xuan Yizhen to launch a surprise attack, and he couldn't move because he was tightly held in her arms. He could clearly feel the softness on his back, and his face flushed as he said, "It's really nothing."
As he finished speaking, Yin Xing felt the hand in the water moving freely and changing unscrupulously. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide and look at Xuan Yizheng's cold profile.
Wasn't that action just now really just a teasing?!
Xuan Yizhen said softly, "It seems that there is nothing wrong. It's not as swollen as it was when I was beaten."
Yin Xing was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say. She looked at Xuan Yizhen's serious expression and said hesitantly: "Yizhen, do you really want it?"
"What do you miss?"
"I thought Ye really wanted to get close."
Xuan Yizhen raised his hands to embrace Yin Xing, and whispered as if kissing her in the ear, "I don't want to, do you?"
Yin Xing, however, only felt a tingling sensation in his ears. He didn't believe Xuan Yizhen's words at all. His cheeks flushed deeply. He met her clear and beautiful eyes, but he couldn't guess what she was thinking. He said, "I didn't want to either, but why didn't Yizhen move your hand away?"
"What's wrong? Doesn't the puppy like being petted by its owner?" Xuan Yizheng's words were still gentle, but he used some force in his palm.
"No." Yin Xing was caught off guard by the photo, and felt a little pain in his heart mixed with shame.
Xuan Yizhen rubbed it slowly, returning to his usual gentleness and forbearance. He kissed Yin Xing's cheek with his thin lips and asked with concern, "Does it hurt?"
If Yin Xing hadn't known that Xuan Yizhen had deliberately bullied her, she would have been persuaded by such gentle words to believe her innocence and muttered, "A little bit."
"The little dog, lie down obediently and let me take a look at you." Xuan Yizheng touched Yin Xing's face with her fingertips, looking very concerned. There was desire in the depths of her beautiful eyes, and a faint expectation in her heart.
"No, I suddenly don't feel any pain anymore!" Yin Xing shook his head evasively, finally understanding Xuan Yizheng's thoughts.
She was probably just waiting for me to say it hurts.
Xuan Yizhen's expression remained unchanged. She continued to loosen her bound arms. Her beautiful eyes drooped, her long eyelashes misted with water. She looked quite lost. She said calmly, "Little dog, you're not behaving well."
"I'm sorry." Yin Xing's heartbeat stopped for a moment, and he said with guilt. He stared at Xuan Yizheng's gentle expression showing disappointment, and felt that she was like a crystal clear glass beauty, with a fragile beauty.
"It doesn't matter. No matter how naughty you are, I will forgive you." Xuan Yizheng raised his hand and moved closer to Yin Xing's side. His slender fingertips touched her lightly, knowing her sensitive spots well.
But Xuan Yizheng was not satisfied, so he waited patiently for Yin Xing to compromise.
Yin Xing looked at Xuan Yizhen's serious expression, as if he had really done something wrong by betraying her. He could only slowly stand up and kiss her lips, his face flushed as he said, "Yizhen, I don't want you to be unhappy, so anything is fine."
"Then just do as you are told, okay?" Xuan Yizheng raised his head in surprise to accept Yin Xing's kiss, coaxing her softly. His calm and beautiful eyes were stained with burning desire, like a flame. He raised his hands to hold her, feeling her delicately.
After the kiss, Yin Xing nodded with a little disordered breathing. Seeing the interest in Xuan Yizhen's eyes, he had to find a position.
There are many stacked rocks near the hot spring, which are very convenient for shelter and sitting for a long time, so it is not difficult to meet Xuan Yizheng's requirements.
The only difficulty is to overcome the shame.
The coolness brought by the night breeze could not dispel the heat on Yin Xing's cheeks. It was difficult to tell whether it was because of the hot spring or some other reason.
Yin Xing and Xuan Yizheng had tried to be intimate with each other many times in the past, but this was the first time they had done so.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just checking the injury."
“…”
