Chapter 95: Is it from the East Palace?
After sending all the servants away, Shen Wangshu finally saw how crooked this man was—he insisted on holding her in his arms while eating!
"My husband hasn't eaten for three days, don't you feel hungry at all?" Shen Wangshu was puzzled.
"A little, but I'm used to it," the man said honestly, "I can't stand being separated from my wife more than being hungry."
After showing her his ugliest appearance, Chen Ting felt as if the anger that had been accumulating in his heart was slowly being exhaled.
The feeling of being able to trust someone wholeheartedly is really wonderful. Apart from his comrades-in-arms on the battlefield whom he is willing to rely on, his grandmother and his wife are the only two people who know his true face and still treat him the same.
Besides, the bitter medicinal scent that the lady carries on her body is really the best medicine to soothe her. Just being with her, the smell can soothe all his restlessness and gloom.
Chen Ting thought that the meal could be eaten later, but his wife couldn't wait to hold him in her arms.
Shen Wangshu hadn't expected that this man would become so annoying after accompanying him out of the small dark room - although Chen Ting had been obedient to him in the past, it had never been to this extent. In essence, he was still the dignified and self-assured general who defended the country.
"My husband doesn't eat, but I still want to eat!" The beauty glared at her with her eyebrows raised, twisting her body and trying to get down.
But the man grabbed her slender waist with his big hand and said, "Don't move. I'll feed you."
"......?" Shen Wangshu stared at him in disbelief: "Are you crazy?"
Chen Ting proved with his actions that he was not crazy and was serious.
This brave general who was used to wielding swords and guns on the battlefield was also very good at serving people. His hands did not even shake when he scooped up a spoonful of rice dumplings.
Shen Wangshu stared at him, and the latter looked back calmly. Although he didn't say anything, his attitude was firm.
Unable to persuade the man, she had to open her mouth and eat it.
By eating this, someone seemed to have opened the door to a new world and discovered the joy of being fed - or rather, it was a certain desire to satisfy the desire to control the young lady in all aspects.
Hold her in your arms, feed her, and decide what she eats...
This feeling was quite addictive, until Shen Wangshu pushed his hand away, saying that he was full and didn't want it anymore, Chen Ting stopped with a feeling of unsatisfied desire.
After eating, Shen Wangshu jumped off his legs when he was not paying attention and sat down on the stool next to him: "Now, my husband can have a good meal, right?"
A special portion of dinner was prepared for him. Chen Ting did not mind that the table was full of his wife's leftovers, so he picked up his chopsticks and cleaned up the rest.
Shen Wangshu held up his chin and watched him eat, and remembered the question he was curious about: "Can my husband breathe fire when he is in dragon form?"
This "dragon shape" really made Chen Ting stunned for a moment. Although his wife said so, he still couldn't understand why he could be the legendary "dragon" with such a weird and scary appearance.
As for the fire breathing...
Chen Tingdao: "I have never tried this."
Anyway, every time he could feel some kind of overbearing power running rampant in his body. It was this power that had nowhere to vent that made him restless and gave rise to a strong desire to destroy.
Even that night when his wife was still there, during the process of transforming from a huge dragon form to a half-human, half-dragon form, that familiar desire for destruction was constantly driving his emotions.
At that time, Chen Ting was very afraid that he would lose control as usual.
After hearing his answer, Shen Wangshu said with great interest: “Then we can try it next time…How come your husband’s body is so interesting that it has never been developed?”
The man said in a muffled voice: "I just think I am dangerous and weird, how can I be interesting."
Here it comes again, this unique dragon in the world is inferior and sensitive. He has never seen anyone like himself, but he is not completely human either.
He wavered between the human and monster camps, unable to feel a sense of belonging in either side.
He is the loneliest, poor dragon in the world.
“For me, my husband is the most interesting person,” Shen Wangshu said.
She wasn't lying. For scientists, unknown creatures and areas are the most interesting.
Chen Ting wanted to hug her again, but Shen Wangshu had already noticed it. He stood up first and took a big step back with the stool: "I have something else to tell my husband."
"What is it?"
"In addition to Yan Shuyun, my maid also caught Yingying sneaking outside your study on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival." Shen Wangshu said, "After my uncle interrogated the two, he found out that they were instructed by the Cheng family in the capital."
"Cheng family?" Chen Ting frowned slightly: "It's the East Palace."
The current Crown Princess is from the Cheng family, and that idiot didn't even bother to hide it and just sent people here without any hesitation?
"What does the prince want to do to you?" Shen Wangshu was a little surprised: "The border war situation is turbulent now, and the emperor is counting on you to pacify it. How dare the prince offend you at this time?"
Not only would this bring bad luck to Chen Ting, but if the emperor knew about this, he would certainly not let him off easily.
The man sneered, "I've only been free for two months. If it weren't for the border war, if it was longer, not only the East Palace, but also the busy Qiankun Palace would have sent people to join in."
Judging from his tone, he seemed to be accustomed to these people's little actions.
The people in the capital could not do anything to Chen Ting openly, but their secret moves were like a poisonous snake, always keeping a close eye on him, ready to find a chance to kill the thing that it feared.
Vicious, cold-blooded and annoying.
"Don't worry, ma'am. I will take care of everything." Chen Ting said the same thing.
Shen Wangshu calculated: "It's been less than 4 months since I got married, and people from the capital have come... three or four times."
"Is my husband usually so gentle?"
This is still a euphemism - what Chen Wangshu actually wants to say is, do you usually suffer this kind of humiliation?
The man naturally understood what she meant and said helplessly, "I was on the battlefield most of the time before. The capital is full of mixed people and the situation is like muddy water. I never got involved or took sides. I was loyal to the emperor."
However, if over time one makes repeated military achievements and becomes more powerful than his master, he will be suspected and resented.
Chen Ting was living under the emperor's nose, and he felt threatened and couldn't stand it. Far away in the northern border's Moyun City, he always felt that this person was secretly making trouble.
There's no good outcome no matter what.
In recent years, there have been constant small tentative moves, and this year they have become even more excessive.
If Chen Ting was still alone as before, he would probably really endure it because he didn't want to cause any more trouble.
But now he realized very clearly that he was no longer alone.
Among so many people in the Duke Rong’s Mansion, there is also his beloved wife.
I can be humiliated, but my wife absolutely cannot!
"Don't worry, An Nian. I have already realized it and will never continue like this!"
