Once Luo Yan left, Shen Pin stopped acting. He resumed his normal tone. “Lady, I know that you were the one who hit me.”
Ming Shu: “…”
Shen Pin hugged Ming Shu’s neck. He sniffed her neck. “I smelled you. So, can you tell me why you knocked me unconscious and brought me here? Why was Huan Li here?”
“If I say that I brought you here to treat your illness, will you believe me?”
Treat my illness?
Am I sick?
Lovesick?
Keep calm! Keep calm!
“I will believe everything you say.” Shen Pin licked Ming Shu’s collarbone. He said seductively, “Lady, bring me home. You can’t reject this. You owe me.”
Ming Shu couldn’t refuse. However, she didn’t feel that she made a mistake. She felt that Luo Yan was the one who was in the wrong.
I will remember this.
Ming Shu helped Shen Pin up. “Don’t lick me.”
Shen Pin replied, “Kiss me then.”
Ming Shu didn’t want Shen Pin to probe further so she kissed him lightly on the lips. Then they left.
Shen Pin leaned against Ming Shu’s shoulder and looked in the direction where Luo Yan left. His gaze was deep.
Huan Li…
He didn’t know what these two people were planning, but this person belonged to him. He would kill anyone who tried to snatch her away.
“Are you cold?”
Shen Pin suppressed his emotions. “Yes. Can I sleep with you today?”
“You can’t.”
“But you hit me…”
“Stop shouting. Don’t touch me and don’t lick me. Be obedient. If not, you will sleep here today.”
“I can sleep anywhere if you are beside me.”
“You will sleep here alone.”
“You can’t bear to do that.”
“I can. Why don’t you lick me and try it?”
Although Ming Shu said that he couldn’t come to her room, she still brought him back to her room. Shen Pin pounced on her bed and welcomed her happily. “Lady, hurry up. Let me warm you up.”
Ming Shu didn’t light up the candles. If the guards outside saw him, there would be trouble.
“Keep quiet.” Ming Shu took off his cloak. “Hurry up and sleep.”
Shen Pin remained quiet.
Ming Shu hung the cloak at the side. Shen Pin was dressed properly. His makeup had not been removed yet, either. Ming Shu secretly went to get some water and let him wash his face.
She was in her own house but she had to act like a thief. Ming Shu felt helpless.
After settling everything, Shen Pin removed his outerwear. Ming Shu looked at him. She wanted to see what he stuffed in his chest.
“Lady, why are you looking at me? Do you want to help me undress?” Shen Pin winked at her. He held out his hand. “Help me undress then.”
“Do it yourself.”
Shen Pin groaned and took his clothes off himself. There were two bulky things inside. Those must be his fake breasts.
His chest was flat.
Ming Shu waited for him to undress before getting on the bed. Shen Pin obediently rested in her arms.
After some time, he started acting naughty.
Shen Pin nuzzled Ming Shu’s neck. His intention was clear.
Ming Shu pulled his hand out of her clothes. “If you continue to do this, you will go back to the palace.”
“You can touch me too.” Shen Pin pulled Ming Shu’s hand and placed it on his body.
Ming Shu: “…”
Shen Pin kissed Ming Shu’s lips and prevented her from speaking. He turned his body and moved on top of Ming Shu. He kissed her for a while.
Ming Shu spent much effort to suppress her urge to hit him.
“What are you thinking?” Shen Pin bit her. “You seem absentminded.”
Ming Shu pressed him down so that he couldn’t move. Shen Pin didn’t manage to break free from her grip so he gave up. “You can only think about me.”
Shen Pin fell asleep quickly. He must be tired.
Ming Shu didn’t kick him out. She just continued hugging him.
Regain his memory…
How can he regain his memory?
So irritating.
Ming Shu felt hungry. Thinking is a tiring thing.
The next day, when Shen Pin realized that Ming Shu was still beside him when he woke up, he was shocked.
He got up and looked at the person beside him. Her eyebrows were beautiful. He traced her eyebrows with his eyes. Then he saw her lips. He leaned forward.
Ming Shu moved around uncomfortably. She buried her head in his chest.
Shen Pin lay down and hugged her.
He looked at the bed frame above him. This feels so good. I can see her the moment I open my eyes.
“Lady, Lady, something happened…”
Jing Yu rushed in without knocking. She saw everything.
Jing Yu’s gaze landed on Shen Pin’s chest. She was stunned. Before Ming Shu opened her eyes, she flew out of the room.
Ming Shu sat up suddenly. She asked in a confused tone without opening her eyes, “Did Jing Yu come in just now?”
Ming Shu lay down again and felt his body. After a while, she stopped. She didn’t want to move.
Shen Pin took her hand and kissed it. “Lady, are you getting up? I can help you dress…”
Ming Shu felt more awake as she sensed the warmth on her hand.
She rejected Shen Pin’s offer and dressed herself. Then, she went out.
Jing Yu stood outside with a stunned face.
“Lady…” Jing Yu said weakly.
She didn’t want to know why Princess Seven was on Lady’s bed. She just wanted to ask why Her Highness was a man.
“What happened?”
“There are rumors this morning about you and Her highness…”
The news spread around the city this morning. Someone spread the news on purpose.
In this world, people were unable to accept such things.
They felt that it was unnatural and against their principals.
“Only the people in the palace would do this,” Ming Shu said. “Do you have to be so anxious?”
“…” Shouldn’t I be anxious?
“As the trusted subordinate of the prime minister, you must be calm. Don’t get agitated over small matters like this. Don’t break into my room for nothing.”
“…” She was used to entering Lady’s room without knocking. She needed some time to change this habit.
“Lady, are we going to ignore this?”
“What else can we do? Can we sew up their mouths?” Ming Shu stretched her body. “Or can I marry a man immediately?”
Jing Yu: “…”
Neither seemed like a good plan.
“Let them spread the news. A careerist needs attention.” It was hard to be on the headlines in the ancient days.
I have to thank Shen Yu for making me known.
Ming Shu ordered Jing Yu, “Go and spread more rumors.”
Jing Yu was astounded after hearing Ming Shu’s request.
What do you mean by cold-blooded and scheming?
Can you anyhow use such words?
We are the prime minister’s mansion!
“Follow my orders.”
“Lady…”
Jing Yu was unable to make Ming Shu change her mind. She didn’t know what Lady was thinking. Everyone cared about their reputation.
Even those corrupted ministers would pretend that they were kind and benevolent.
However, their lady…
She was spreading rumors about herself!
