Chapter 106: Spoiled
"I didn't, really!" Qi Shaoyou frowned, pretending to be injured.
"Why would Jiaojiao think that about me? I'm considering the practical situation." Qi Shaoyou blinked and then explained little by little.
"We need to wash up and go eat now. Since we're handcuffed, we definitely need to wash up together."
"Hey, if Jiaojiao wants to go home, she'll have to be handcuffed when she walks out."
"The most important thing is that Jiaojiao kissed me so many times last night. I need to take a shower."
Qi Shaoyou whispered the last few words into Shen Mingjiao's ear.
"Don't waste water, let's..."
Before he could finish speaking, the rabbit-headed man reappeared. This time, the rabbit held nothing back, forcing Qi Shaoyou to close his eyes for quite a while.
"Get up!" Shen Mingjiao wanted to slap Qi Shaoyou, but Qi Shaoyou had only just arrived in this world. After scolding him, her heart softened.
"Not going to unlock them?" Qi Shaoyou shook the handcuffs, and Shen Mingjiao pulled her towards the restroom.
The bathroom has a wet and dry separation design, and it's more than enough for two people to wash up. However, it's not very convenient to move around. What Qi Shaoyou is concerned about is something else.
Shen Mingjiao's phone is broken, and she wants to buy her a new one.
But she doesn't even have a phone herself right now, so she has to figure out how to get the princess to buy one for her.
"Why are you looking at me like that!" Shen Mingjiao finished washing up and felt something was wrong when she saw Qi Shaoyou staring at her blankly again.
"My princess, is it alright if I take a few more glances?" Qi Shaoyou raised an eyebrow, not revealing his true thoughts.
The system has already disbursed 30 billion; all she needs now is a mobile phone to receive the money.
"Who said it's yours!" Shen Ming scolded her playfully, her face flushed, and she opened the bathroom door, pulling her out.
Qi Shaoyou let Shen Mingjiao pull him out, even though his little princess was handcuffed, she still insisted on holding his hand.
He wasn't looking at her, but Shen Mingjiao's focus was entirely on her back. Qi Shaoyou knew that if he hesitated even slightly, the person in front would immediately stop and ask her what was wrong.
This was something she could easily confirm, and it wasn't that Shen Mingjiao didn't want to turn back. She was just a little shy; Qi Shaoyou had let his hair down and was wearing his red official robes while washing up…
Everything felt so much like their first night on their wedding night. Just thinking about it made her face burn.
Her long, dark hair and official robes were a mess from when she slept last night. Qi Shaoyou was always a clean person, and yesterday, because of her antics, he went to bed without even taking off his outer clothes.
These were all fragmented things, and the more Shen Mingjiao thought about them, the hotter her face felt.
Once the two were seated at the table, Shen Mingjiao had no choice but to unlock their handcuffs so that Qi Shaoyou could eat properly.
Qi Shaoyou must be hungry after all this time. Shen Mingjiao looked at the food the aunt had prepared, but showed little interest.
After Qi Shaoyou disappeared, Shen Mingjiao lost her appetite. She didn't really have much interest in food.
Qi Shaoyou casually picked up a bowl of porridge and fed the first mouthful to Shen Mingjiao.
"I'll make you something delicious tomorrow, how about we eat this for today?"
A familiar voice rang out; Qi Shaoyou used to coax her like this. Shen Mingjiao clutched the hem of her top, smoothing out the wrinkles as she listened to the familiar words, refusing to eat the porridge Qi Shaoyou was feeding her.
He was about to cry again. Qi Shaoyou understood that Shen Mingjiao was experiencing immense insecurity. Both the good and bad aspects of their past relationship easily made her feel uneasy.
Faced with this situation, Qi Shaoyou didn't actually have any particularly good solutions. However, she did have a very useful method.
Qi Shaoyou glanced at the table and saw lemon juice. She blinked, a mischievous thought creeping onto her mind—washing her hair.
The lemon juice was sweet and sour, and Qi Shaoyou put down his chopsticks and took a sip.
Shen Mingjiao kept her head down, staring at the hem of her clothes. She had a sweet face and usually wore a proud demeanor. But when Shen Mingjiao truly began to feel anxious and insecure, her eyes reddening, she appeared exceptionally pitiful.
"Jiaojiao, don't you have an appetite?" Qi Shaoyou asked in a question, but his tone was certain.
Shen Mingjiao ignored her and nodded haphazardly. From the moment she took off the handcuffs, she knew she couldn't control Qi Shaoyou.
This isn't her past life; in her past life, she could...
Oh well, she hadn't succeeded in locking it in her past life anyway. Thinking of this, Shen Mingjiao's little pearl was about to fall out again.
"Oh dear..." As soon as Qi Shaoyou's voice came out, Shen Mingjiao immediately stopped thinking and looked up at her.
The long, dark hair slid down to her cheek in the next second, and a faint sweet and sour taste entered her mouth.
Qi Shaoyou's consistent style was that he couldn't bear to see Shen Mingjiao sad, no matter what the reason. Her kiss was not a gentle peck from the beginning; it carried the sweet and sour taste of lemon juice, enticing Shen Mingjiao to join him.
With both hands free, Qi Shaoyou's hand was already on Shen Mingjiao's waist when he kissed her.
Suddenly kissed, Shen Mingjiao was forced to taste the sweet and sour flavor. She tried to push Qi Shaoyou away, but found herself completely in his hands.
She opened her round eyes and looked at the pair of narrow phoenix eyes in front of her; the dark blue eyes were still as beautiful as ever.
But there was something different in those eyes. What was it? Just as Shen Mingjiao was trying to figure it out, Qi Shaoyou noticed that she wasn't focused on the kiss.
Qi Shaoyou rubbed his teeth hard against Shen Mingjiao's tongue, and only then did the emotion in Shen Mingjiao's eyes truly change.
Qi Shaoyou is a gentle person, most of the time. However, whenever Shen Mingjiao does something excessive, he is no longer as gentle as before.
"Open up."
Qi Shaoyou simply pulled her onto his lap, and the two of them couldn't be separated even without handcuffs.
Shen Mingjiao knew that she meant she was going to be fed, and her unease temporarily dissipated.
Right now, all she can think about is how to fool Qi Shaoyou.
"Open up." Qi Shaoyou's tone became more forceful, and Shen Mingjiao didn't understand why things had suddenly changed.
Qi Shaoyou's smile vanished, and Shen Mingjiao knew that he had probably noticed that she hadn't been eating properly these past few days.
"What are you hiding from? Hmm?" Qi Shaoyou's voice turned cold, and the smile that used to grace his eyes, which were always upturned, was gone.
Shen Mingjiao could tell that Qi Shaoyou was really angry, so she obediently opened her mouth.
"Good girl, I knew our Jiaojiao was the best girl."
"As long as Jiaojiao eats well, you can handcuff me for as long as you want." When Qi Shaoyou said this, Shen Mingjiao always felt that something was wrong with his tone.
Qi Shaoyou was in the same state when she was pushed into the water by the Crown Princess.
On the surface, nothing seemed a big deal; she just had no expression on her face and still looked gentle.
In reality, she found the time to fill in the lake, uncovered evidence of the Crown Princess's family's corruption, and directly sent the Imperial Brother-in-law to the execution ground. The Crown Princess's entire family was exiled...
Naturally, the Crown Princess died of depression a few years later.
In the end, it was only after being told by others that Shen Mingjiao learned what Qi Shaoyou had done.
After that, the entire court knew that Qi Shaoyou was a true-blue wife-loving fanatic.
Shen Mingjiao's "delicate" nature is also largely due to Qi Shaoyou's pampering and spoiling.
Qi Shaoyou usually went along with Shen Mingjiao, except for two things. One was about Shen Mingjiao's health, and the other was something Shen Mingjiao was ashamed to mention.
As a result, Shen Mingjiao's insecurity was immediately suppressed by her sense of crisis.
This is bad, very bad. Shen Mingjiao sat obediently in Qi Shaoyou's lap, being fed.
That expression... this bad guy is definitely not angry just because she doesn't eat properly.
What else could it be?
Shen Mingjiao's brain was spinning!
