This time, the fat fox maid in the mural finally didn't make a sound to stop him. Shen Yunhao felt relieved and gently pushed open the door and went inside.
As expected, the room was dimly lit and quiet, and the Seventh Princess of the North Sea was still wrapped in her blankets, fast asleep!
Looking at the bulging lump on the bed, Shen Yunhao couldn't help but chuckle. At the same time, he felt a sense of admiration for the little dragon's skill... Anytime, anywhere, as long as no one came to disturb her, she could sleep soundly until the sun was high in the sky, or even until noon when the sun was shining on her butt.
This reminded him of the times he used to communicate with the candlelight through the white dragon lantern. If it was even a little early, the real-time image projected by the white dragon lantern would almost always be a vivid and sensual "beauty waking up at dawn" scene.
Sister Li'er, still half-asleep, her black hair spread out on the pillow, exuded a lazy and charming air of just waking up, completely unsuspecting...
As a result, Shen Yunhao later dared not use the White Dragon Lantern in front of outsiders.
It's bad enough that the Seventh Princess's image is ruined, but what if one morning she accidentally reveals something even more "wonderful" in her bed to others? Shen Yunhao would be in deep trouble...
He tiptoed to the bedside and looked at the peaceful sleeping face, like a delicate porcelain doll. Long eyelashes cast faint shadows under the eyelids, and there seemed to be a faint, satisfied smile on the corner of her mouth. He wondered what sweet dream she was having.
In fact, for powerful individuals like Zhuli, who are at the Void Soul Realm or above, once they awaken their divine sense, they can detect the surrounding activity at any time, even while asleep, if they wish...
But clearly, in order to ensure a comfortable sleep, Zhuli never uses this skill.
This is the Demon Emperor's Palace, not your North Sea Palace! How can you sleep so soundly here?
Shen Yunhao sat down by the bed, looking at Zhuli's unguarded sleeping face. He felt both amused and affectionate. He reached out and pinched her small, pert nose, lifting it slightly.
"Hmm..."
Zhu Li frowned immediately, muttering indistinctly, "Stop it... sleepy..."
Shen Yunhao leaned closer to her ear and deliberately raised his voice, "Lazy Dragon, get up! The sun's already high in the sky!"
Unexpectedly, Zhuli's long eyelashes trembled a few times, and she actually groggily lifted her head from under the covers, looking down at her lower body with a somewhat silly expression, as if to check if her bottom had been exposed to the sun.
Upon realizing that it was still dark around her, the last vestiges of consciousness she had been forcibly awakened vanished instantly. Her body went limp, and she slumped back into the pillow. "You're lying... my butt isn't in the sun... stop fooling around, I want to sleep..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, his breathing became even and long again, and he drifted off to sleep once more.
Shen Yunhao: "..."
How could it fall back asleep so quickly? He was truly impressed by this lazy dragon.
He stroked his chin, a glint of inspiration in his eyes, and deliberately sighed, "Alright then, Sister Li'er, you go to sleep first. I have something to discuss with Xiaoruo, I'll come see you again later..."
As he spoke, he made a move to get up and walk towards the door.
However, just as he took a step, he heard a soft "whoosh" and his waist was tightly wrapped by something thin and flexible.
Looking down, it was a slender tail that looked like it had been carved from white jade. Each of its bright white scales was smooth and lustrous, as exquisite as a work of art.
Turning around, he saw Zhuli, who had just been "sleeping soundly," now staring at him with her pale purple eyes wide open. Her eyes were three parts dazed and seven parts dissatisfied, and she unconsciously adopted the older sister's stance again: "You're not allowed to go out so early in the morning! Come and sleep with me!"
This statement is quite ambiguous, but considering that Xiaobailong's eyes were half confused and half jealous, it is understandable.
Shen Yunhao hadn't really planned to leave, but the cool, slippery tail pulled him back to the edge of the bed.
Zhu Li then wriggled out of the blanket and moved to Shen Yunhao's side, stretched out her arms and hugged him around the waist, tilted her head, and comfortably rested her head on Shen Yunhao's lap.
Judging from this, simply wrapping his tail around her wouldn't be enough; he'd have to hold her tightly with his whole body, lest he run away again while she was asleep.
After taking all these protective measures, Zhu Li finally adjusted to a more comfortable position, rubbed her cheek against his leg, hummed softly, and then... actually went back to sleep!
"..."
Shen Yunhao's lips twitched... This lazy dragon, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she's the reincarnation of the Goddess of Sleep.
He shook his head helplessly, reached out and pulled at the slipped brocade quilt, carefully covering Zhuli's snow-white, fragrant shoulder that had accidentally popped out from the collar of her loose nightgown during the movement, and then looked at the tail wrapped around his waist.
That wasn't a dragon's tail, but a smooth, cool, and beautifully shaped snake's tail.
In fact, Shen Yunhao was somewhat worried that after Zhuli fused with the Ancestral Dragon Holy Soul, she might eliminate the part of the Ice Spirit Sea Python bloodline in her body, just like she absorbed the blood of the Ancestral Dragon.
Now it seems that the Ancestral Dragon Sacred Soul has not served to purify the dragon bloodline, and Shen Yunhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before he could even touch the crystal-clear tip of the tail, the girl resting on his lap seemed to sense his "filthy" thoughts, and two faint blushes rose on her fair cheeks.
She closed her eyes, raised her hand and patted Shen Yunhao's thigh. The snake tail wrapped around his waist also "whooshed" back into the quilt and disappeared.
"Eh? You..."
The toy he had almost gotten his hands on had flown away, and Shen Yunhao was greatly disappointed. He looked down at Zhuli, who was still pretending to be asleep, but whose eyelashes were trembling slightly. He couldn't help but reach out and pinch her nose again, "You're still pretending to be asleep! Get up!"
"Ugh... Stop it!" With her nose pinched, Zhu Li protested with a muffled, nasal sound, waving her little hands wildly to slap away Chen Yunhao's hand, "I love you, Sister!"
"My sister is disobedient! She still needs to be disciplined!"
Shen Yunhao, heartbroken at losing his tail, pinched Zhu Li's nose and wouldn't let go. Unable to continue pretending to be asleep, Zhu Li angrily waved her little hands and started to fight with him.
Before long, the two of them were wrestling on the bed without any regard for their image.
Just then, outside the room, the fat fox maid from the mural passed by the door, attracted by the noise inside, stopped and listened intently.
As the creaking of the embroidered bed inside rang out, the maid gave a very strange look, then shook her head as if talking to herself:
"Ugh... In broad daylight, she can't even be a little more discreet in her room, making such a commotion... And she calls herself the Seventh Princess. No wonder she's from the Dragon Clan, but... Ugh! My ears are so dirty!"
The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, but it clearly penetrated the door and reached the ears of the two people who were playfully fighting.
Zhu Li, who was pressing down on Shen Yunhao and trying to pull his ear, suddenly froze and stood there for two seconds.
Her face flushed red instantly, and in a fit of shame and indignation, she raised her delicate foot and kicked Shen Yunhao, who was still lying under her with an innocent look on his face, solidly!
Oh my god!
Caught off guard, Shen Yunhao was kicked off the bed and landed on his backside on the floor.
