Chapter 86 Come on, take advantage of it!
Is this an engagement?
Xiao Lang raised his head and gently touched the tip of Shen Zhi's nose again.
The gentle touch of a dragonfly touching the water was gone in an instant. Shen Zhi pursed his lips, turned around and said coldly to Zhong Wenyan: "Master Zhong, do you have anything else to say?"
Zhong Wenyan was speechless, bowed deeply and left.
Shen Zhi's thin back was slightly droopy. Within three days, the news that the crown prince had become deposed and was indulging in male beauty would reach the ears of ministers in the court.
Shen Zhi fumbled around on the desk, "Find a book to read."
Xiao Lang lowered his eyes, staring at Shen Zhi's slender white fingertips, reached out to take the book and pushed it to Shen Zhi's hand.
Shen Zhi paused for a moment, then picked up the book and threw it at Xiao Lang, saying calmly, "Just read it here. If you have any questions, ask me."
Xiao Lang knew how to read and Xiao Xingwu also taught him.
However, what Shen Zhi gave him was not a book. It was more like a collection of scattered papers sorted out by someone. It contained all kinds of things. Xiao Lang could not understand it, and he did not want to read it.
He didn't like it, but this was the task assigned to him by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so Xiao Lang read it page by page.
The sky outside gradually darkened. Shen Zhijing sat there, like a beauty carved out of ice jade.
Xiao Lang's gaze gradually spread from the pages of the book to Shen Zhi's profile. Xiao Lang sat next to Shen Zhi, their clothes intertwined and touching, looking very close.
Xiao Lang moved his legs and pressed his knees against Shen Zhi's knees. He felt a sense of peace and tranquility.
He could not help but look at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was like the most holy immortal in a painting. He sketched him from his brows, with the brushstrokes flowing smoothly and naturally to his nose and lips, with a faint cold fragrance drifting in the air.
"But now you know how to do it?" Shen Zhi felt the gaze falling on him, burning hot.
The lines on Shen Zhi's lips bloomed like petals, so dazzling that they were eye-catching.
Xiao Lang turned his eyes away, his Adam's apple rolling unconsciously.
Shen Zhi frowned and began to interrogate the taciturn student like the most severe teacher.
How can a distracted student, whose mind is not on the book, ask any questions?
Shen Zhi could sense all of Xiao Lang's little movements. Shen Zhi could tell that Xiao Lang didn't want to sit here and study.
What was beyond Shen Zhi's expectation was that Xiao Lang actually answered all the questions one by one. It turned out that this naughty student had extraordinary talent.
"You remembered them all?" Shen Zhi was a little surprised. All the questions he asked were from the pages of the book. He did not expand on them, but just repeated them. And Xiao Lang remembered every word correctly.
Xiao Lang nodded. He had a photographic memory since he was a child, but what he remembered more were all the herbs that the mother wolf took him to find, as well as the animal caves everywhere.
Xiao Lang gently tugged at Shen Zhi's sleeve, which was very unbecoming.
Shen Zhi still tilted his head, quietly waiting for Xiao Lang to say the next word.
Shen Zhi's delicate profile is close at hand, with the fine hair on her face vaguely visible, the white silk appearing translucent in the sunlight, and the long, black eyelashes imprinted on the ribbon, a breathtakingly fragile beauty.
"Your Highness," Xiao Lang's voice still sounded a little strange, but he pronounced the word "Your Highness" lightly and long.
Xiao Lang stared at Shen Zhi, remembering what the Crown Prince had said in front of Zhong Wenyan, "Can I drink the contraceptive soup tonight?"
Shen Zhi's body stiffened for a moment. Before he could fully understand Xiao Lang's meaning, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.
Yuanbao reported to Shen Zhi that it was Zhong Wenshu.
Shen Zhi asked Yuanbao to step back and let Zhong Wenshu in.
After Zhong Wenshu came in and saluted Shen Zhi, she couldn't suppress her excitement and asked, "Your Highness, can I not get married in the future?"
After Zhong Wenshu finished speaking, she saw the tall and fierce man next to Shen Zhi. The recent incident of having her medicine stolen was still fresh in her mind. She couldn't drink it unless the small kitchen made two servings.
She was puzzled. What other effects does the medicine that makes women infertile have? Why did Xiao Lang take it away from her every day?
Wouldn't Xiao Lang have uterine cold if he drank too much?
"Lord Zhong cares about you very much," Shen Zhi's clear voice brought Zhong Wenshu back to her wandering thoughts. He did not give Zhong Wenshu a direct answer.
Zhong Wenshu seemed to know something and instinctively distrusted the people around her. Her disguise was poorly done and Shen Zhi could tell without looking closely.
She could have asked Zhong Wenyan to resolve the matter quickly, but Zhong Wenshu still took the risk and found him.
Zhong Wenshu knew that Zhong Wenyan cared about her very much, and if she threatened to commit suicide, she would definitely not marry the Prince of Yongwang in the future.
However, the plot of the original book is completely illogical. Zhong Wenshu was afraid that one day, Zhong Wenyan would become a tool controlled by Shen Zhaoheng and she would encounter an accident. It would be better for her to stand on the side of the villain from the beginning.
At least she won't be pushed forward by the seemingly kind protagonist with all kinds of righteous reasons to be a stepping stone for him to ascend the throne.
Besides, Zhong Wenyan would not want her to remain single for the rest of her life.
"Your Highness, do you think women should get married?" Zhong Wenshu asked hesitantly.
If Shen Zhi thought the same as her brother, there would be no need for her to stay.
Shen Zhi replied calmly: "You shouldn't ask me, you should ask those women."
He is not them and will not make any decisions for them.
Even though there might be an abyss ahead.
Respect is a rare quality in this world.
Zhong Wenshu blinked, smiled and praised: "Your Highness, you should be born in a more magnificent world."
Shen Zhi didn't understand what Zhong Wenshu meant, so he asked, "Are you still taking the medicine?"
Shen Zhi had never seen a woman taking medicine to harm her body in order not to get married. At first, Shen Zhi suggested that Zhong Wenshu become a nun, which would also allow her to not get married and not have to take medicine.
However, Zhong Wenshu told him that she should have the right to choose even without the identity of a nun.
What Shen Zhi didn't know was that Zhong Wenshu not only didn't want to get married, she also didn't want to leave even the slightest mark of herself in this world, which could very well become a hindrance for her to return home.
While "eating", Zhong Wenshu actually had a better idea. She wanted Shen Zhi to marry her and then divorce her, so that she could pretend to be hurt by emotions and never have to worry about love again.
Anyway, with the Crown Prince's bad reputation, no one would dare to mess with her in the future. If the Crown Prince had not fought for the protagonist's halo, she could still live on as an abandoned woman.
Zhong Wenshu couldn't help but complain secretly, "Is General Xiao eating it recently? I noticed that more people from the Crown Prince's Mansion are going out to buy it."
Shen Zhi thought of Xiao Lang's words last night and the tentative sentences just now, and seemed to understand something.
If Xiao Lang had different thoughts, he might have misunderstood what I had deliberately said to Zhong Wenyan.
Shen Zhi wanted to use this method to distance Xiao Lang from himself so that Xiao Lang could be alone.
Obviously, Shen Zhi is unsure now. He doesn't know whether Xiao Lang will take it seriously.
"Don't drink anymore in the future," Shen Zhi said, blocking Xiao Lang's weak temptation.
Xiao Lang's black pupils were tinged with stubbornness, "Why?"
He didn't understand, if Zhong Wenshu could drink, why couldn't he.
He did not ask Zhong Wenshu not to drink, and accordingly he should not be stopped by others.
Zhong Wenshu's eyes moved around, moving between the two people in front of her as if she knew some incredible inside story.
No matter how curious Zhong Wenshu was, she held back. This was not something she could find out.
Only Shen Zhi and Xiao Lang were left in the room, with only the sound of each other's breathing lingering around them, in silence.
"I am not a renegade," Shen Zhi could only say this much. He had deceived many people with his pretended debauchery, and now it seemed that he had also deceived Xiao Lang. He should explain it clearly.
Shen Zhi didn't give Xiao Lang another chance to speak and left in a huff.
Xiao Lang didn't even understand what Shen Zhi meant, and only found out after asking Zheng Qing.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told him that he didn't like men.
Xiao Lang didn't seem to feel bad after hearing this, he was a wolf and not a man.
The wolf king and the wolf queen can be together because they have touched noses and engaged each other.
Shen Zhi didn't have dinner. Xiao Lang's silence in the afternoon made him uneasy, and it added a hint of inexplicable meaning.
He intuitively felt that their relationship shouldn't be like this, but for some reason he didn't reject Xiao Lang.
Shen Zhi, wearing a middle-aged shirt, walked into the hot spring pool.
She let the spring water soak into the fabric, the hot steam permeating her skin, creating a light pink hue that showed through the transparent clothes.
Shen Zhi has a thin and lean figure, with a slender waist without any excess fat, and can be held in one hand.
Her satin-like black hair hung smoothly down her back. A white leather belt was tied behind her head, with the ends swaying casually on the water. Her whole body was soaked in moisture, like a water demon that had emerged from a well.
A clear bell rang, coming from far away.
Shen Zhixia's consciousness became tense. The noise in his ears suddenly disappeared, but his heart was still not calm.
There were splashes of water in the hot spring pool, neither too big nor too small, which were just caught by Shen Zhi.
The heartbeat like a drum vibrated in his chest, Shen Zhi's eyes were blurred, and the sounds in his ears expanded infinitely.
The ripples on the water surface reverberated around Shen Zhi's waist and abdomen, and the weak thrust almost knocked Shen Zhi down.
Shen Zhi pursed his lips, creating a deep red lip line.
Someone pressed against the tip of his wet nose, and the breath was filled with the murderous smell of blood. Shen Zhi's eyelashes trembled slightly.
He knew who was coming, and he had to stop the mistake from going any further.
The words that came out of her red lips suddenly changed tone and turned into a muffled hum.
Shen Zhi's waist instantly went limp and was held firmly by a strong arm, supporting his body as it was soaked in the hot spring.
Shen Zhi felt the person above him licking his eyes through the ribbon.
He could even feel the pattern of the ribbon imprinted on his eyelids. The tiny touch was infinitely magnified, causing Shen's face to flush.
She placed her hand on the man's forearm to push him away, but it couldn't stop him from getting any closer.
Shen Zhi's ribbon was untied.
Without any obstruction, Shen Zhi opened his eyes, and the dusty shadow made Shen Zhi look helpless and pitiful.
The thick and straight eyelashes flutter like butterfly wings.
The roots of his eyelashes were wet with saliva, which was so heavy that Shen Zhi's eyelids trembled even more violently.
"Xiao..."
Before he could finish his words, Shen Zhi's cheek was bitten again. It should not be said that it was bitten, but more accurately, it was ground by teeth.
It left a red mark of moderate size, which was unusually bright.
It also makes people want to caress and kiss that red skin.
"Your Highness," a hoarse voice sprayed into Shen Zhi's ears, "I drank the contraceptive soup."
Shen Zhi was almost unable to stand and a hum escaped from his throat.
It has nothing to do with this.
Shen Zhi wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Xiao Lang, "Can I sleep with you?"
