"That's not necessary," Su Wanwan refused directly.
"Marriage is a major life event, and it's best to prioritize mutual consent."
She paused for a moment, then said, "Look at Gu Ziyu. He was betrothed, but now he's living like this. It makes people feel guilty."
Wen Shuyi dared to disregard the future of her family and rashly frame her, the Empress, so she is clearly not a good daughter-in-law.
Lu Xingjian narrowed his eyes, his tone carrying a hint of questioning.
"Aren't you being a little too concerned about a guard?"
Su Wanwan said, "He is our savior. What's wrong with me showing him extra care?"
Lu Xingjian curled his lips in a cold, sarcastic smile.
"Just someone who saved my life?"
"Su Wanwan, do you still remember? You got married, and you're my wife."
He looked at her with great displeasure.
It seems she cheated on her husband.
Su Wanwan was somewhat speechless, so she changed the subject:
"I remember, I remember, you said you'd make me a sachet! It's been so many days, where is it?"
Lu Xingjian snorted coldly, suppressing his anger:
"We're doing it tonight, and you have to come with us!"
Su Wanwan raised an eyebrow, and the corners of her lips involuntarily curled up.
He didn't consider having the needlework bureau secretly make one to fool her.
She had already prepared the fabric and needles for making the sachets.
To prevent him from causing trouble again by bringing up Xiao Bin's matter, she immediately dragged him to make sachets.
After the two finished showering and closed the bedroom door, they sat side by side on the bed.
Su Wanwan guided Lu Xingjian as he threaded the needle, his long, slender fingers clumsily grasping the needle and piercing the spot she indicated.
I pricked her with a needle and glanced at her.
There was still resentment in his eyes.
The feeling was like drawing a curse on a doll with a needle, and then sketching its likeness.
Su Wanwan found it very funny.
He must have mistaken that piece of cloth in his hand for her.
It looks kind of cute with its puffed-up face.
Su Wanwan turned to the side and kissed his cheek tenderly.
"My dearest husband, I love you."
Lu Xingjian remained unmoved and gave a cool snort.
He continued to bend down and pierce the fabric with the needle.
His expression softened somewhat.
But seeing her sitting quietly, he became displeased again, and slightly raised his finger, pointing to the other side of his face.
Why do we have to make sure a kiss on the cheek is symmetrical?
Su Wanwan paused, then got up and sat on his other side, kissing his cheek.
You still need to pamper your husband occasionally.
Lu Xingjian coughed deliberately.
Su Wanwan quickly added obsequiously, "My dear Ah Shou, I love you so much."
Lu Xingjian tossed aside the fabric he had only stitched a few times, pulled her to sit facing him on his lap, his face grim, his tone commanding:
"You stinky Wanwan, you're not allowed to think about other men, you're only allowed to love me."
Very domineering.
Su Wanwan's eyes flickered, her gaze defiant:
"And what about you?"
"Ah Shou only loves our Wanwan." Lu Xingjian gently rubbed his forehead against hers.
After he finished speaking, he gestured for her to hurry up and say, "Tell me quickly."
Su Wanwan knew his temper; if she didn't appease him now, there would probably be more trouble.
"I love you, I love you, I only love you." Su Wanwan took the fabric back and stuffed it into his hand, suppressing a laugh.
"Come on, keep going, don't be lazy."
If others knew that the emperor, high above all others, was secretly embroidering sachets in his bedroom, I wonder what they would think.
Lu Xingjian was not very satisfied.
Her tone was clearly perfunctory.
He hadn't finished making the sachet he'd promised her, so he didn't want to make a fuss anymore. He just glanced at her lazily and started inserting needles seriously.
After only a few injections, his shoulders started shaking again.
Su Wanwan raised an eyebrow: "What's wrong?"
My shoulders ache.
"Oh." Su Wanwan pulled the blanket up, intending to go to sleep first.
Lu Xingjian stopped inserting the needle and gestured to her with his eyes, "Rub it."
Su Wanwan: "..."
You're a grown man who practices martial arts every day, and you get tired after just a few needle pricks?
Su Wanwan pursed her lips, but still tactfully went to massage his shoulders.
He, on the other hand, kept complaining that she wasn't strong enough, saying, "Put in more effort. You need to eat more in the future. You're too thin and have no strength."
Su Wanwan simply put half her body weight on it:
Will this work?
"It'll do alright," Lu Xingjian sneered listlessly. "I'll carry you around embroidering sachets, and nobody will care if I get exhausted."
That's what I meant.
Su Wanwan climbed off his back and reached out to snatch the fabric away, saying, "Then don't embroider it."
Lu Xingjian swiftly and decisively scooped it up with his long arm.
Su Wanwan missed her target, her body swayed, and she fell solidly into his arms.
The refreshing scent of ambergris mixed with bath beans wafts over you.
Her hand accidentally touched a sensitive part of the man's body.
"My wife, so this is what you wanted."
Lu Xingjian's hot breath sprayed onto her fair and delicate nape.
The voice was soft, with a hint of meaning and teasing.
"Just say what you want, how could your husband not grant it?"
Su Wanwan was not afraid of his threats.
She adjusted her body to a comfortable position, wrapped her two slender wrists around his neck, and blinked her two big, watery eyes, looking innocent and pure.
Do you dare to come?
Lu Xingjian's smile faded slightly.
If it weren't for her health, he wouldn't have been so celibate, like a monk.
This guy seems to have nothing to fear.
"I dare not?"
The man pinched her chin and kissed her.
Their lips seemed to have a magical power, automatically seeking each other's lips as soon as they came close, and kissing deeply and intimately.
His breathing was heavy; he had reached his limit.
