Chapter 267 The Young Master is Willing to Be a Mistress (12)
Jiang Rou nestled limply in Xie Jingci's arms like she had no bones, listening to his thunderous heartbeat, a mischievous glint in her eye.
Suddenly, Xie Jingci froze on the spot, and even his wildly beating heart seemed to stop for a moment.
All his senses seemed to converge on the soft touch on his face, and his usually cool eyes now looked bewildered.
Jiang Rou placed her hands on Xie Jingci's face. Her originally plain face was now tinged with cherry blossom color. She tilted her head, her almond eyes were wet and misty, and her eyelashes cast delicate shadows under her eyes. Her expression was extremely serious.
Thousands of scenes flashed through Xie Jingci's mind, and his arms around Jiang Rou's slender waist tightened involuntarily. He stared intently at Jiang Rou, waiting for her next move.
Jiang Rou slowly approached him. Xie Jingci's throat bobbed, and his body seemed to be frozen in place. He slowly closed his eyes.
When he closed his eyes halfway, he suddenly heard Jiang Rou's muffled voice: "Don't move your head anymore, I can't hold on to it."
Xie Jingci's expression froze. Recalling his earlier fantasies, his face instantly turned bright red. What on earth was he thinking?
He was momentarily at a loss for what to do with his hands and feet, and dared not look into Jiang Rou's eyes again. He felt that her eyes were as clear as a silver mirror, reflecting clearly the filthy thoughts in his heart.
As if Xie Jingci hadn't listened to her, Jiang Rou was a little dissatisfied. She poked his chest with her delicate white fingers, but because she lost her balance, she fell into his arms.
Xie Jingci had practiced martial arts for many years, and his muscles were hard and rigid. Jiang Rou bumped into his hard chest, let out a soft sob, and her eyes welled up with tears. She looked pitiful, as if she were making an accusation.
Seeing her clutching her forehead, Xie Jingci quickly checked her over with some concern. Seeing that she wasn't injured, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a hint of helplessness, "You mustn't be so reckless in the future. What if you really got hurt?"
Jiang Rou's mind was already a mess, and now Xie Jingci was nagging in her ear, her eyebrows furrowed, and she childishly covered her ears, burying herself in Xie Jingci's arms, clearly unhappy to hear him chanting.
Xie Jingci's heart softened upon seeing this, and he himself didn't realize how gentle his smile was.
Hiding in the bushes not far away, Sheng An could only see two blurry figures in the distance. He stuck out his buttocks and stared intently.
Sheng Qing, leaning against a tree, looked at him with a puzzled expression. While wiping his sword, he coldly reminded him, "If the young master knew what you looked like now, he would probably have to stay in the Thousand Machines Pavilion for half a month."
Upon hearing this, Sheng An paused, gave Sheng Qing a light snort and rolled her eyes, then lowered her voice to defend herself, saying, "What do you know, you ice-cold face? I'm just concerned about the young master's lifelong happiness."
Sheng Qing didn't even glance at him, and Sheng An rolled his eyes at him again, bored, and continued his spying.
He truly hadn't expected that his young master would develop feelings for Jiang Rou; no wonder he turned into a stone statue every time he met her.
Sheng An sighed inwardly. The young master only dared to approach people when they were drunk. It felt like he was taking advantage of their vulnerability.
As far as he knew, Lady Jiang was still thinking of her deceased husband. Sheng An was worried about his young master, fearing that the king was interested but the woman was indifferent.
When Cui Tao hurriedly returned, she saw Jiang Rou leaning against a pillar with her eyes half-closed. She smiled sweetly at her.
Seeing this, Cui Tao breathed a sigh of relief, but still looked around sharply. Only when she saw that there was really no one around did she finally relax completely.
She quickly stepped forward and draped the cloak over Jiang Rou's shoulders. When she touched Jiang Rou's hand, she was surprised to find that Jiang Rou's palm was warm. A hint of surprise flashed in Cui Tao's eyes.
But seeing that Jiang Rou was so sleepy she was practically nodding off, she suppressed her thoughts and helped her back to Tingyu Pavilion.
After seeing the master and servant enter the courtyard, Xie Jingci turned around and went back to his room.
As soon as Xie Jingci fell asleep, he opened his eyes again and found himself in a familiar yet unfamiliar environment.
Although he had only been to Jiang Rou's room twice, he recognized at a glance that the room he was in now was Jiang Rou's room.
The scene before him was so real that Xie Jingci couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality for a moment. He felt as if he could smell Jiang Rou's warm fragrance.
Suddenly, Xie Jingci heard a soft moan beside him. He turned around and saw Jiang Rou slowly opening her eyes and looking at him. Xie Jingci suddenly stiffened.
He, he, he... was actually lying in the same bed with Jiang Rou!
Before he could recover from his shock, he saw Jiang Rou, who had just woken up, looking at him with eyes full of dependence and giving him a gentle smile.
Then she reached out and wrapped her arms around Xie Jingci's neck, lying on his chest, the two of them like mandarin ducks with their necks intertwined.
Xie Jingci suddenly stiffened. He realized that Jiang Rou was completely naked, and he himself was no exception. Now the two of them were truly touching skin to skin.
As if sensing his unusual behavior, Jiang Rou raised her head slightly, her eyes filled with doubt: "Husband, what's wrong with you?"
With a snap, Xie Jingci felt the last string in his mind break.
What did he hear? What did Jiang Rou call him? Husband?
Seeing his expression, Jiang Rou pouted in dissatisfaction, stopped clinging to him, turned her head away, and ignored him.
Xie Jingci was unable to calm down for a long time, but for some reason, his body seemed to have gained its own consciousness.
He propped himself up, turned the angry woman around, and before she could speak, he leaned down and kissed her red lips.
What followed was a natural progression, and the dream lasted all night.
Xie Jingci didn't wake up from his dream until it was fully light. After discovering the filth beneath him, he changed out of his nightgown with a cold expression, and only relaxed his expression slightly after the clothes had completely disappeared.
But the scenes from his dream lingered in his mind all day long: heavy breathing, fragmented moans, the soft touch of skin...
All of this felt so real, as if it had actually happened.
Thinking this, Xie Jingci's eyes grew increasingly dark. He held the policy essay in his hand, not turning a single page for a long time, and it was unclear what he was thinking about.
Sheng An looked at Xie Jingci's appearance from the side and shook his head helplessly. Based on his experience reading storybooks, his young master was obviously lovesick.
Meanwhile, 021, who couldn't resist peeking last night, was now embarrassed and didn't dare to look Jiang Rou in the eye. It regretted peeking.
As a newly born leader, it is still considered a baby leader in the leader world. Last night, it saw the scene of "Do Not Look at What Is Improper," which, although it was just an illusion, still left it stunned.
Seeing its hesitant expression, Jiang Rou ignored it completely, simply basking in the sun under the eaves while reading travelogues, completely unaware of the profound impact the illusion of the previous night had on 021 and Xie Jingci.
Suddenly, a pink-clad figure walked in through the hanging flower archway. Upon seeing Jiang Rou, she quickened her pace, radiating joy.
When Jiang Rou saw Song Xiangning arrive, she put down the book in her hand and looked at her with a smile: "Didn't you go out of the manor with Fifth Sister today?"
Upon hearing this, Song Xiangning shook her head and said with a somewhat puzzled expression, "Something happened at the manor, so I didn't go out."
Jiang Rou was somewhat surprised to hear this, but after a moment's thought, she roughly guessed what it was about.
