Su Xi-er immediately knew what book he was referring to. He has been very engrossed in it recently. She immediately showed an awkward expression.
āThis Prince has realised that you will become bashful as soon as I mention the medical book.ā Glancing at the woman in his arms, the corners of his mouth curled up and his eyes lit up.
āIf Iām not embarrassed, wouldnāt that mean that Iām as shameless as you?ā Su Xi-er glared at him before swiftly walking away, clearly not wanting to discuss this anymore.
Perhaps heās very interested in studying this subject, seeing as how what he says makes a lot of sense. However, I canāt help but become embarrassed whenever he brings it up.
āLovemaking between husband and wife is very normal. How can you say that itās shameless?ā Pei Qianhao countered before letting out a soft chuckle. āThe medical book states that the technique and amount of force used is imperative. You will learn to appreciate this Princeās shamelessness when you get used to it.ā
Su Xi-er really felt like covering his mouth. The things he says are getting more and more shameless! Where has his high and mighty disposition gone?
āSo shy that you are speechless. Fine then, this Prince wonāt mention it anymore.ā Pei Qianhao pinched her cheek and embraced her more tightly, walking all the way to the Dragon Heaven Palace in this position.
Situ Lin was waiting in the courtyard when he saw the two of them walking over in one anotherās embrace, and couldnāt help but flash a bright smile.
He had already dismissed the guards in the hall, and went up to greet the pair by himself as they arrived. āImperial Uncle, Imperial Aunt, itās getting cold. A heater filled with coal has been placed in the side hall so that it wonāt be cold at night.ā
Su Xi-er pushed Pei Qianhao away and looked at Situ Lin. āMany thanks, Your Majesty.ā
āIāll be upset if family tries to thank me. But enough of that; itās windy outside, Imperial Uncle, you should bring Imperial Aunt inside.ā Situ Lin reached out his hand as he smiled at Pei Qianhao.
Pei Qianhao nodded. āThis Prince is happy that Your Majesty has learned to be more meticulous while handling matters. Grand Tutor Kong will be coming early tomorrow.ā
Situ Linās expression cracked when he heard the last sentence. I have to study early tomorrow morning. Sigh. Imperial Uncle, you just have to worry about making Imperial Aunt happy and preparing for your wedding. Donāt keep staring at me!
āYour Majesty, you should return to your hall and rest.ā Pei Qianhao sternly reminded.
Situ Lin didnāt dare to tarry, immediately rounding the corner and disappearing from their sight.
āItās cold outside; letās go in.ā Pei Qianhao pulled Su Xi-er into his arms again.
Su Xi-er followed him into the inner chamber of the side hall, feeling the gentle warmth brush against her skin thanks to the heater that had been placed inside. Although Situ Lin is still young, he is attentive to details. Of course, heās also very good at reading people and currying favour with others.
Over the course of the past few days, she had noticed that Situ Lin was very reliant on Pei Qianhao. As he didnāt have a father, the relationship he shared with Pei Qianhao was more of that between a father and a son rather than a sovereign and his subject. However, this āfatherā was extremely strict. Even a cursory glance from Pei Qianhao was enough to frighten Situ Lin.
āTake off your clothes and get onto the bed.ā Pei Qianhao began removing his own outer robes, setting them down on the clothes rack.
Su Xi-er also removed her clothes without being embarrassed, climbing onto the bed before Pei Qianhao could so that she could lie down on the inner side of it.
As she was lying in bed, she saw Pei Qianhao walking to the wardrobe, a blue-covered book appearing in his hand. Heās still studying late at night?!
