The shirt was thin and stuck to his body, barely covering most of his body, with his hands and feet exposed. A quilt was spread across his legs. His soft and shiny hair fell on the jade pillow, making his hair look even darker and his skin even whiter.
He slept uneasily on that hot day, his cheeks flushed, and his chest rose and fell slightly every time he exhaled.
His clothes were loose and he was completely defenseless, so he could see vague scenery, like a newly blossoming red plum blossom against a blanket of frost and snow.
Xie Shu's throat felt inexplicably dry. He restrained himself with difficulty and looked away.
But the next second, Xie Shu discovered that even if he didn't look, the scene just now was still lingering in his mind, and the sweet fragrance on the man's body was like his breath, which could not be ignored.
Xie Shu felt a little hot all over. This kind of reaction was not unfamiliar to him.
He closed his eyes and wanted to sit up from the couch, but when he made a noise, Yu Chuxi beside him seemed to be aware of something in his dream. He frowned unconsciously, murmured something, and then kicked the quilt, vaguely audible a complaint.
Xie Shu paused in his attempt to stand up and didn't dare to move again.
Xie Shu then lowered her head to look at her lover again, only to see a faint sheen on his ruffled black haired neck.
Xie Shu realized that her husband was probably sweating from the heat.
Xie Shu had discovered before that her husband's physique made him sweat easily, and he would always do so once he was exposed to heat.
Xie Shu's eyes softened and she carefully moved the quilt away from her lover.
Yu Chuxi's frowned brows relaxed a little, and even his breathing became much lighter.
But when Xie Shu completely removed the quilt from Lang Jun's legs, she saw that the shirt Lang Jun was wearing was piled up in a mess, and had been lifted to the base of his legs at some point, so it couldn't cover anything at all...
Xie Shu's hands holding the quilt froze on the spot, not knowing whether to cover her husband again...
Finally, Xie Shu thought of a solution that was not a good solution. He put the quilt aside, then gently reached out his hand and tried to straighten his lover's shirt.
A strange touch brushed past his leg, and Yu Chuxi was in a fuzzy state, half asleep and half awake. He only felt that the fingers with thin calluses were moving across his hot skin, as if bringing a cool feeling like a gentle rain.
But this comfort was also accompanied by a bit of indescribable unbearable feeling.
When the fingers moved away from his legs, Yu Chuxi frowned again and couldn't help muttering something.
He was a light sleeper to begin with, and when he opened his eyes and dimly saw Xie Shu, Yu Chuxi's consciousness had not yet fully awakened.
He just felt that Xie Shu was very close to him, but refused to touch him again.
He blinked slowly, with a hint of grievance, and said in a coquettish and urgent tone: "Why don't you kiss me?"
Xie Shu's Adam's apple rolled suddenly, and his eyes suddenly became dim. Does my husband know what he is saying?
But Xie Shu did not ask any more questions. The young man looked at him with moist eyes, his lips slightly parted, looking charming and tempting.
Xie Shu half turned sideways, lifted the back of Yu Chuxi's neck with his other hand, and lowered his head. He first kissed the corner of her eyes, stayed on the red mole for a while, and then kissed his lips deeply.
Su Kai was wearing a bright brocade robe, which made his already short stature look even shorter.
But Su Kai was completely unaware of this. He sat in the lobby of his house with a happy face, just waiting for Wei Qingtong to come.
However, Su Kai didn't know why, but he felt uneasy since yesterday, so he asked someone to go there early in the morning today.
However, Su Kai became a little unhappy as no one came for a long time.
Fortunately, the steward of the Su Mansion always knew what the master was thinking, and quickly sent someone to urge him. After a while, he came back with an embarrassed look on his face and told Su Kai the reason.
It turned out that something went wrong at the Wei family's end. Wei Qingtong seemed to have changed his mind and was unwilling to come out of the house.
Su Kai's face turned as dark as charcoal when he heard this. Although he knew that Wei Qingtong was not willing to be his concubine, he gave such a large betrothal gift to the Wei family and agreed to many of Wei Qingtong's requests. He was really ungrateful.
If this gets out, won't everyone laugh at him?
Su Kai's original thoughts of sympathizing with women were abandoned. He said with a gloomy face: "If he becomes my concubine, does that mean he is being humiliated? Since I gave him this honor and he doesn't want it, then let him lose his honor!"
Su Kai didn't need to give any instructions, for the Su family's housekeeper already understood what he meant and went to the Wei family with a dozen servants in a threatening manner.
Nowadays, the Wei family is in chaos.
The wedding party sent by the Su family was not so easy to deal with. Wei Er bowed and nodded, apologized with a smile, and gave a lot of rewards before he appeased the matchmaker and Hua Niang.
Seeing that he had just earned the money and spent a lot of it before he could even warm it up, Wei Er felt like his heart was bleeding.
Wei Da was even more furious. He never expected that Wei Qingtong would do this!
Does Wei Qingtong really think that someone can save him?
Originally, if he had gone to the house obediently, he might have been able to please Master Su and become half the master in the future. But now, Master Su is angry and dislikes Wei Qingtong, and they will all have a hard time!
Seeing that Wei Qingtong refused to come out, Wei Daben wanted to ask the neighbors to break down the door together, but no one around came forward.
This is a very immoral thing to do, who would be willing to do this?
Some people even saw that Wei Dawei was so shameless and Wei Qingtong had grown up in front of everyone, so they couldn't bear it and wanted to step forward to help, but when they thought of the power of the Su family, they couldn't help but hesitate.
Just when someone was about to take action, they saw the steward of the Su Mansion bringing more than a dozen strong slaves. Each of them was burly and had a face full of flesh. When everyone saw them, they hid aside and could only sigh.
As soon as they saw the steward of the Su Mansion, Wei Da and Wei Er hurried forward to apologize, but they were not given the opportunity. According to the master, since the Wei family couldn't even do their job well, they were useless!
The steward of the Su Mansion did not listen to their explanation and asked someone to teach him a lesson first. Of course, the most important thing was to take Wei Qingtong back.
Hearing the noisy noise coming from outside and the screams of Wei David II, Wei Qingtong suddenly showed a satisfied smile on his pale face.
More than a dozen servants started fighting with real swords and guns. No matter how many things were piled behind the wooden door, they were of no use. Soon the wood that was barely put together fell into pieces, and even the whole hut was a little shaky.
But when the surrounding obstacles collapsed, he saw Wei Qingtong sitting upright on the couch in the house. He was not wearing the colorful wedding dress, and his face was expressionless. Only his black and white eyes were looking at him quietly, which made people feel a little cold for no reason.
There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the housekeeper of the Su Mansion, and then he looked at him with a fake smile. The master had married so many concubines, some of whom were from good families, but none of them was as arrogant as him.
You are just a little famous in Jinling, do you really think you can fly to the tree branch and become a phoenix?
But the steward of the Su Mansion thought about it and decided not to force him to go away. Wei Qingtong is indeed good-looking, and who knows, maybe he will be favored by the master in the future?
So the housekeeper of the Su Mansion called the matchmaker Hua Niang from outside to first tidy up Wei Qingtong and then quickly send him into the mansion.
Just then, another group of people came towards here from a distance.
The steward of the Su Mansion also realized that the other party was not well-intentioned. The leader was wearing light armor, and it was hard to tell which mansion they were from, but it always felt that the rules were unusual.
Moreover, all the people he led were martial artists, and they were carrying a sedan chair.
Although the housekeeper of the Su Mansion was somewhat suspicious, he immediately plucked up his courage and shouted, "Who are you? How dare you disturb us at the Su Mansion?"
The master said that Xie Shu is now unable to protect himself, and the master has hooked up with Lord Gu Zhong. How many people in Jinling City dare to mess with their Su family?
The next second, a shrill and feminine voice came from the sedan chair: "Oh? I have seen Su Kai before, but I didn't know he had such a mean slave."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Taoni Lane suddenly became quiet, and everyone fell silent as if they were being strangled.
The steward of the Su Mansion was even more frightened. How could he not recognize that the person who was speaking was Eunuch Liu from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the leader was Commander Sun, the imperial guard.
Even though the master tried his best to please Eunuch Liu, he had given gifts to Eunuch Liu on behalf of the master before. Now, what did Eunuch Liu mean by this?
By the way, Eunuch Liu is here today, could it be that...
With an impossible guess in mind, the housekeeper of the Su Mansion looked pale and said in a trembling voice: "Eunuch Liu..."
However, Eunuch Liu did not wait for him to finish and sneered, "Since he is not someone close to Su Kai, he is an imposter. Commander Sun, send him to the government."
As for Wei Qingtong, Eunuch Liu glanced at him more as he lifted the curtain and stepped down from the sedan chair. He then took out the bright yellow handwritten edict, read out the edict of the temporary palace to select palace maids, and said with a smile: "Wei Qingtong, you are now also on the list of candidates to be selected."
Of course, the former was indeed promulgated by His Majesty himself, but as for the latter, there is much more room for maneuver.
When everything was settled, Eunuch Liu took Wei Qingtong out. On the way, Eunuch Liu couldn't help thinking that Xie Shu had asked him to send Wei Qingtong away before, but now the matter of the palace has not been resolved yet, it would be better to detain Wei Qingtong first.
However, Eunuch Liu also made it clear to Wei Qingtong that he was entrusted by Xie Shu this time and would send him to a safe place in the future.
Wei Qingtong was shocked when he heard this, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
In fact, he had thought about it before. Maybe Xie Shu didn't mean that, otherwise he wouldn't have refused to see him later.
But why did he save himself?
That person is really different from before.
Wei Qingtong suddenly remembered what he had said to him half a year ago, and a sense of strangeness emerged in his heart again.
But then, Wei Qingtong had no time to think about it...
His mind was elsewhere.
Just now, those people from the Su family were so arrogant that Wei Da and Wei Er, who were usually very bad guys, had to bow their heads.
But when Eunuch Liu came, they had to keep a low profile.
If he had not experienced the nightmare just now and the joy now, Wei Qingtong might never have realized so clearly that people's classes could be divided so finely and so cruelly.
But Wei Qingtong didn't feel sad, instead he smiled.
Eunuch Liu still has such power and prestige. Wei Qingtong's heartbeat gradually quickened and he clenched his fingers.
There are more noble people in this world.
