The hall was so quiet that there was not a single unnecessary sound. The candles on the lampstands had long been extinguished, leaving only the solidified wax...
In such an environment, people walking inside will involuntarily lighten their steps.
Since they were both dressed the same, Jiang Zhisi didn't need to change his clothes.
Unable to spare any extra attention to other things, he lifted the falling bead curtain and walked straight to the bed at the innermost...
The bed curtain was not completely lifted, only a corner was opened, revealing the bright yellow bedding inside.
When Jiang Zhisi thought of Jiang Ziqing lying on this bed last night, the corners of his slightly upturned lips drooped, and his lip line was stretched into a straight line.
After finally waiting for dawn, he tried his best not to have any negative emotions.
【......】
Lift the bed curtains.
The girl's petite body was curled up in the quilt, with only her fair and rosy face exposed.
The waterfall-like black hair spread on the pillow, a little messy. I picked up a strand of hair and dropped it into my palm, then quickly slid down like silk.
Although the exchange had just ended, it was already late. Jiang Zhisi just stood beside the bed and stared at it, with no intention of going to bed.
He scanned the bed carefully, not missing any place the girl might have touched...
Gu Yangyang was still sleeping soundly, and she didn't know that someone was standing by the bed staring at her. Otherwise, she would have been scared.
She didn't take off her clothes when she went to bed last night, and she was still wearing the same clothes she wore yesterday. But even so, her peaceful sleeping appearance still made people feel tempted, especially her pink lips, which added a bit of liveliness to her peaceful face...
Jiang Zhisi watched for a while, and after confirming that Jiang Ziqing did not do anything too extreme last night, he felt relieved and dared not look anymore.
He let down the bed curtains, sat down on a chair beside him, and waited calmly for the time to attend the morning court.
......
The sky was completely light.
The bright sky finally made the palace feel less solemn and gloomy.
The sun shines into the hall from the window, casting a few spots of light in front of the bed...
When Gu Yangyang woke up, the hall was still quiet.
She opened her eyes hazily and looked at the golden bed curtains above her head, unable to react for a moment.
There is a soft mattress under me, and a thick and warm blanket covering me. I can feel the quality of the fabric when I touch it...
Although she didn't know what happened after she fell asleep last night, she could probably guess that it was Jiang Ziqing who carried her to bed...
"woke up?"
The sudden voice made Gu Yangyang pause, and she realized that she was not the only one in the hall.
She pursed her lips, put last night's events behind her, and reached out to draw aside the bed curtain.
As expected, through the carved screen in front of the left, I saw a figure sitting at the table behind...
For some reason, she could tell at a glance that this person was Jiang Zhisi, not Jiang Ziqing, simply by feeling...
She had just woken up, and her voice was a little hoarse: "Where's Jiang Ziqing?"
She asked subconsciously, guessing that they probably took turns appearing day and night...
After all, rumors outside say that the late emperor only had one prince, but it is clear that Jiang Zhisi and Jiang Ziqing are brothers, so there must be some secret behind this......
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi is dissatisfied +800]
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi's jealousy +800]
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi's disgust +800]
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi turns darker +800]
【......】
The sound of footsteps could be clearly heard from outside. The tall and slender figure of the young man stood in front of the bed, casting a shadow on the bed curtain that was not fully lifted.
Jiang Zhisi didn't want to come over at first, after all, his painting was not finished yet, but after listening to the questions coming from the bed, he really couldn't remain calm.
It was just one night and she started to miss him?
Since she could tell him and Jiang Ziqing apart at a glance, why didn't she ask him how the morning court went...?
Why only ask Jiang Ziqing?
With such thoughts in mind, even if he wanted to control his emotions, he couldn't do it.
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi is dissatisfied +800]
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi's jealousy +800]
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi's disgust +800]
[Ding! Jiang Zhisi turns darker +800]
【......】
"Why are you asking this? Do you want to see him more than me?"
A deep voice accompanied by a series of system sounds rang out, making Gu Yangyang's head even more chaotic and unclear.
What does this have to do with Jiang Ziqing? She just asked casually.
How did she show any bias towards him or Jiang Ziqing?
Gu Yangyang couldn't figure out the connection, but she could tell that the assassin in front of her was in a bad mood.
Because she didn't understand the key points, she could only keep her mouth shut and remain silent, but she stared at the person in front of her with her eyes wide open, blinking.
"......"
Jiang Zhisi felt that if he really touched her, he would lose control.
But even though he knew this would be the outcome, he still couldn't resist.
With an imperceptible sigh, he silently suppressed the slightly dull aura on his body and squatted down in front of Gu Yangyang.
He lowered his head, as if to comfort himself, and said in an almost inaudible voice: "Forget it."
Then he raised his dark eyes and looked at Gu Yangyang, "Stretch out your legs, and I'll put on your shoes for you."
"..." Compared to Jiang Ziqing, his emotions changed really quickly, so much so that Gu Yangyang was often unable to accurately guess what he was thinking.
Just like his attitude, sometimes serious, sometimes gentle, and sometimes even a mixture of the two emotions.
Gu Yangyang stretched her legs out from under the quilt, her two calves hanging down by the bed. Although she was wearing pants, her slender and white ankles showed her delicate skin...
Jiang Zhisi held her feet, his broad palms felt a little hot.
Gu Yangyang shrank her feet uncomfortably, but the other party held her down even harder.
"Don't move." His voice also became hoarse.
Gu Yangyang's ears felt a little hot and she didn't dare to move for a moment.
After Jiang Zhisi put on her shoes, she quickly stood up.
The remaining sleepiness disappeared and her mind was completely clear. She wanted to keep some distance, but Jiang Zhisi naturally grabbed her hand and held it in his palm, leading her to the basin of water that had been prepared at some point.
The water in the basin was warm, the towel was soft, everything was just right.
Gu Yangyang felt like a child who couldn't take care of herself, and Jiang Zhisi helped her wash up.
After washing up, Jiang Zhisi took her to sit at the table again.
On the table was a prepared breakfast, exquisite and rich.
Jiang Zhisi did not eat with her, but turned around and sat at the table to complete the unfinished painting.
