"You've been there before, why are you pretending to be innocent now?!" He Yue rolled her eyes, remembering something.
I was almost moved by him; I'm so easily swayed.
After all, before she arrived, he already had a concubine and two princesses. As a man, and especially as a prince, He Yue didn't believe he wouldn't touch them at least once.
Sure enough, men are good at coaxing people.
What's even worse is that I almost fell for his lies!
That's so embarrassing!
What happened to not trusting men?!
The thirteenth prince blushed instantly, his eyes flickered, but he tightened his grip on her waist and whispered something in her ear.
He Yue's eyes widened instantly, and she looked up at him in disbelief.
"Cough, you're not just trying to fool me, are you?" After a long pause, He Yue asked dryly.
That was all He Yue could think of; she simply couldn't believe that someone could do such a thing.
The Thirteenth Prince frowned and snorted, his tone dissatisfied: "Why would I need to lie?" After saying that, he turned his face away in a huff.
He Yue could clearly see his bright red ears and his tightly pursed lips, and she gave a smirk.
Indeed, there's no need to lie about this. After all, how could a prince lack women? To tell such a lie just to please a woman is really going too far.
However, Yue really couldn't believe that he hadn't touched those women yet.
"Why...?" He Yue still couldn't understand.
For a man of this era, it would be unbelievable not to touch such a young and beautiful concubine.
If it were for her own sake, Heyue wouldn't have that much confidence.
Upon hearing this, the Thirteenth Prince blushed even more, seemingly finding it difficult to speak and not daring to look at her.
But she could still feel that burning gaze, and she couldn't bear it, so she lowered her eyes and explained in a low voice: "At first it was because... because whenever I faced them, the scene of you hitting me when we first met would appear in my mind. Thinking of how terrible you were, I felt that all women were like monsters. Even though they acted very docile, I just didn't want to touch them."
Pfft! He Yue covered her mouth, almost bursting out laughing, and turned her head to the inside of the bed, her shoulders shaking wildly.
I never expected it to be for this reason.
I never imagined that he would be so traumatized by that scene.
Thinking of this, He Yue felt a little guilty. In that case, she was the culprit, and she couldn't laugh anymore.
She buried her head under the covers, too embarrassed to look up at him.
When the Thirteenth Prince first saw her laughing like that, he was both annoyed and ashamed, and wished he could run away immediately.
But then he saw her stop laughing, bury her head in the blanket, and not come out for a long time. He couldn't help but worry that she was suffocating, so he reached out and pulled the blanket off her.
"You...you come out quickly, aren't you afraid of suffocating?" He forcefully pulled off the blanket, trying to pull her up, but Yue buried her face in his chest again, hugging his waist tightly, and mumbled, "Is it because of this?"
Thinking about it again, she felt something was off. After all, they had done everything on their wedding night. So she suddenly raised her face, her cheeks flushed with anger: "You weren't as scared as you said that night."
He was very enthusiastic back then, which led to me getting into a fight with him.
The Thirteenth Prince pursed his lips, somewhat embarrassed: "Actually, there's another reason."
"Huh?" He Yue's eyes widened in confusion.
“You said you didn’t like having multiple wives and concubines.” The Thirteenth Prince hugged her tightly, resting his chin on her head, and said in a low voice, “They were given to me by Father Emperor. I couldn’t refuse. Thinking of the resolute words you spoke back then, I was afraid that if I touched them, you would never speak to me again.”
He Yue couldn't recall saying such a thing for a moment.
It wasn't until she heard him say, "You also said that your future husband is just a stranger to you, that you don't care about betrayal, and you even said that if he wrongs you, you'll wish him to die from being with another woman," that He Yue remembered where those words came from, and she was immediately incredibly embarrassed.
For this era, such words are indeed ruthless, extreme, and outrageous.
It was just a joke made in a fit of anger at the time, but now that she's married to the thirteenth prince, if people find out she said that, she'll be beheaded.
To save her own life, He Yue immediately feigned ignorance and firmly denied it: "Really? I don't remember saying anything like that. You must have heard it from someone else!"
The thirteenth prince was both angry and annoyed, and he bit her lip hard.
Heyue took a breath and shrank her neck.
Uh, it seems she's really angry.
But I wasn't married to him yet, so why should I be angry?
The Thirteenth Prince said almost fiercely, "You are not allowed to treat me like a stranger, you are not allowed to be indifferent. I hope you care, I hope you can treat me as your husband, and I hope even more that you... have me in your heart." He spoke the last sentence with great grievance and expectation, revealing his cautiousness.
He Yue fell silent.
Meeting his pleading gaze, He Yue looked at him for a while, then burst out laughing.
The thirteenth prince was both embarrassed and angry: "What are you laughing at?!"
"Are you telling the truth?" He Yue suppressed a laugh and looked at him seriously. She was laughing so hard that tears welled up in her eyes, which were sparkling.
The Thirteenth Prince glared at her, annoyed: "You naughty girl! You've gotten me into this mess, and you can't escape now, you have to take responsibility!"
Although it was a threat, He Yue wasn't intimidated by his tone at all, and inexplicably found him quite adorable.
He Yue still wanted to laugh, but her heart was warm. She hugged his neck, looked up and asked, "Then tell me the truth, are you still afraid of women?"
Seeing her so proactive and charming for the first time, the Thirteenth Prince stared wide-eyed, swallowed hard, moved his lips, and nervously said, "At first, I was afraid of everyone except you, so I never touched anyone else after that. Now I only want to touch you. If you would be angry if I touched someone else, I would rather never touch them for the rest of my life."
These are the most beautiful love words Heyue has ever heard.
Who would have thought that someone so innocent would be such a master of flirting!
She chuckled softly, her eyes filled with joy, and lifted her head to lightly touch his lips to hers.
The Thirteenth Prince stared blankly at her, forgetting to react. Only the soft, real touch on his lips reminded him of what was happening. His mind was dizzy, and he was completely disoriented.
Heyue reached out and stroked his smooth forehead, her eyes crinkling with a smile like a cat that had stolen some cream. She pulled away from his lips a little, her voice so gentle it could drip water, yet with a hint of seduction: "Be good, you're not allowed to touch anyone else in the future."
He could only nod blankly, unable to think of anything else, only knowing that whatever she said meant it, and then, he wanted to swallow her whole.
Just when he wanted to take it a step further...
The result was a tragic discovery: the person who had been teasing him had teased him enough and let him go, but when he wanted to continue, he found that he couldn't do anything at all.
Seeing her smug smile, the Thirteenth Prince was furious and nearly vomited blood. In his rage, he grabbed her and pulled her away...
