“It’s been raining all day, and the ground is slippery. It’ll be easier if I carry you,” he explained, successfully stopping Lu Yingying from struggling to get down.
Even so, Lu Yingying's body was still very tense, and she was really not used to being hugged like this by him in front of other people.
Once inside her courtyard, Wen Tingyun suddenly whispered in her ear, "Nongnong is indeed very capable, but I prefer a woman like Yingying."
His unexpected words stunned Lu Yingying, who then widened her eyes and blushed, her neck turning pink.
In fact, this wasn't the first time Wen Tingyun had said such explicit things to her, but most of the time it was when they were sharing a room.
His sudden remark suggests he might be thinking...
She bit her lip, somewhat afraid to look into his deep eyes.
He had kept her up all night last night, and she didn't have the energy to deal with him again tonight.
Thinking about it, she put her hand on his shoulder, lowered her head, and stammered, "Um, I want to go to bed early tonight..." She hadn't slept well last night, and she had spent the whole day doing needlework with Nong Nong today, so she was already feeling a bit exhausted.
Upon hearing this, Wen Tingyun was taken aback, but when he saw his wife's shy face, he immediately understood.
He smiled, then suddenly pulled her closer, whispering in her ear, "You can go to sleep earlier, it won't stop you..."
A tingling sensation immediately spread throughout her body. Lu Yingying was extremely ashamed and moved away, saying, "Don't do anything rash, don't hurt the baby..."
Wen Tingyun's favorite thing was to see her shy and at a loss.
Only at this moment did she seem like a girl who was only a teenager.
"Have you ever seen me act recklessly?" he continued to tease her.
Lu Yingying's mind flashed back to all his terrible deeds.
Although he was a sensible person, he always drove her to the brink of collapse.
Thinking of his torturous methods, she almost burst into tears.
This time, however, Wen Tingyun didn't tease her anymore. Instead, he put her down and chuckled softly, "Silly girl, I'll let you off the hook for tonight."
Lu Yingying's face flushed. When she saw him turn and leave, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But as soon as she sat down on the couch, she saw him return with a basin of warm water, which he then placed at her feet.
She was about to take off her shoes when the man's hand touched her feet first.
"I'll wash you," he said calmly.
Lu Yingying was momentarily stunned, and when she came to her senses, he had already removed her shoes and socks.
Her pair of snow-white lotus feet fell into the man's palm.
Wen Tingyun admired the water for a while, and just as Lu Yingying was about to break free from his hand, he grabbed her foot and put it into the basin of water.
Looking at the man squatting by the basin, rubbing her feet, Lu Yingying felt ashamed.
They had done all sorts of intimate things together, but this was the first time she had ever been served like this by him.
She felt very uncomfortable and out of place.
Her whole face turned bright red.
She didn't come to her senses until her feet were washed, dried, and socks were put on.
She bit her lip, lowered her head, and said somewhat awkwardly, "Don't do this again. It's not good if someone sees you like this..." A dignified young master, squatting on the ground to wash her feet, it would damage his reputation if people found out.
Even when her parents' relationship was at its best, her father only ever brought her mother water to wash her feet, but Wen Tingyun...
“Your body is getting heavier and heavier. As long as I’m home, I will serve and take care of you.” Wen Tingyun interrupted her. He didn’t think it was shameful to serve his pregnant wife by washing her feet.
"Don't overthink it." He gently touched her face. In his view, pregnancy and childbirth are already very difficult for women, and as a husband, he should take good care of his wife.
Lu Yingying knew that although he appeared gentle and refined, he was actually quite assertive. Once he had made up his mind, he wouldn't allow her to refuse.
Looking at the man's handsome face, she sighed and ultimately said nothing more.
After Wen Tingyun finished washing up, he went to bed and lay down with her in his arms.
Sure enough, he didn't touch her again tonight.
While the couple were enjoying their sweet and intimate moment, Wen Nongnong had already returned to her boudoir with Gu Linchao.
Lü Qiao and Wang Houde had tidied up the house again.
Upon seeing the two return, he had water prepared and helped them wash up before leaving.
This was the first time Gu Linchao had stepped into Wen Nongnong's boudoir before her marriage.
The house was luxuriously furnished, which showed how much Wen Shiqing and his wife doted on her.
Wen Nong Nong also felt that the room was decorated too luxuriously and was worried that Gu Linchao would misunderstand her, so she quickly said, "I used to be ignorant and spoiled, and I liked extravagance, but I changed after I married the prince. Now I am very frugal."
Gu Linchao paused, turned to look at her, then took her small hand and gently stroked it. "It's my fault for not taking good care of Nong Nong, preventing her from living a life she can do as she pleases."
Wen Nong Nong looked at him in surprise; he seemed to have misunderstood her meaning.
“That’s not what I meant. I’m doing very well in the Prince’s mansion. The Prince spoils me and gives me the best of everything. My change isn’t because of the Prince, but because I felt my previous attitude towards life was bad, so I changed.”
Gu Linchao stared at her intently, "Nongnong can do whatever she wants, there's no need to deliberately change it."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong looked at the man's confident yet indulgent expression and suddenly blurted out, "What if I wanted Your Highness to sit on that chair? Would Your Highness take it for me?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Linchao's expression changed, and his voice immediately became stern, "Nong Nong, watch your words!"
Wen Nong Nong shrank her neck. "I... I was just joking. Why did Your Highness take it seriously?" In her heart, she was sweating bullets. She had actually lost her mind. How could she say such a thing to Gu Linchao? Now was not the time.
Gu Linchao pursed his lips and looked at her scrutinizingly.
Wen Nong Nong's heart sank. Could he be suspecting that she had some ulterior motive?
Thinking about it, she got up and snuggled into his arms, kissing his cold lips.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry. I was just joking with you. It's getting late, let's... let's get settled in..."
To distract him, she reached out and began to unbutton his robe, the implication quite clear.
Gu Linchao initially maintained his composure, but as her actions became increasingly audacious, his breathing quickly became erratic.
Looking at the girl in his arms, his phoenix eyes darkened.
He forgot one thing: the nonsense that girl had been spouting with Lu Yingying in Xu's room that evening.
She actually felt that he couldn't...
He felt sorry for her, and every time she cried, he would soften and let her go. But she went and told others about it...
Tonight, he's determined to teach her a lesson.
He lifted her up and carried her to the bed.
