Bai Ruozhu moved lightly, appearing sowhat sneaky, as Jiang Yichun, facing the wall inside the bed, fluttered his eyelashes. What was she trying to do?
His body felt slightly feverish; could it be that she was resorting to beauty tactics since gentleness didn’t work? Although Jiang Yichun felt he was still angry, he couldn’t help but get slightly excited at the thought.
He knew he shouldn’t bla Ruozhu, also understood she wouldn’t have any other intentions, and had even urged himself to be more generous. But understanding was one thing, and anger was another; this anger was really hard to dissipate.
At this mont, Bai Ruozhu had already quietly climbed onto the bed, and one hand slowly reached his waistband. This was...
He felt as if his body was on fire, but he was still angry, so how could he just let it go?
Just when Jiang Yichun was internally struggling, his ancient underwear was already pulled down by Bai Ruozhu. Although the touches and teasing he anticipated didn’t occur, he felt a cool sensation on his thigh, soon followed by the scent of drug incense wafting out.
He was completely dumbfounded, finding out that she wanted to apply dicine as she guessed his leg was scratched.
Poor him, he had completely misunderstood, it was really...
So, Jiang Yichun decided to continue pretending to be asleep. He definitely couldn’t let Bai Ruozhu know that he had misunderstood, nor could he let her know that he was sowhat burning with desire now.
Bai Ruozhu looked at the wound on his leg with heartache and carefully applied ointnt. Although they were minor scratches, she really didn’t want him to end up with scars. With the dicine she wielded, she could restore the skin to its original state within seven days.
Once she finished applying the dicine, her gaze unintentionally landed on that embarrassing place, prompting her to swiftly turn her head. He hadn’t cald down yet, so why was she entertaining wild thoughts?
Thus, that night, both of them harbored their own thoughts, although they were thinking about the sa thing, no one dared to act rashly, and eventually, they fatigued into sleep.
In the following days, the Imperial Palace began a thorough cleaning, those suspect were either imprisoned or expelled, and past cris the Emperor had once forgiven were now punished according to the rules.
Yet, the atmosphere in Bai Ruozhu’s small courtyard remained extrely gloomy. Everyone was on edge, not daring to slacken even slightly.
"Yizi, don’t you think sothing’s off between Ruozhu and her husband?" Fo Lanying finally couldn’t hold back and pulled Yizi to ask.
Yizi frowned, "I also feel like they’ve been arguing, but don’t know the reason. They talk, but the attitude of the son-in-law isn’t quite right. Even Jianqi has noticed, but with the son-in-law like that, no one dares to question."
"No way, why would they argue? Jiang Yichun used to pamper his wife to the point of embarrassnt, how has it changed?" Fo Lanying’s eyes swirled, "I have an idea. Let’s perform a play, surely it’ll make them reconcile, or else I wouldn’t dare speak loudly seeing them like this every day."
Yizi’s face changed greatly, "You, you shouldn’t co up with any more half-baked ideas. Performing a play is even worse. I’ve suffered losses and jumped off a cliff before; you mustn’t get involved in this matter!"
Fo Lanying’s mouth twitched, "Don’t ntion that incident again, alright? It was unexpected, but it ended well; didn’t Jianqi obediently end up with you?"
She then laughed twice, scaring Yizi to retreat quickly, "Don’t tell your crooked ideas; I’ve got things to do."
Perhaps fearing that Fo Lanying’s idea would beco inevitable once spoken, Yizi fled like she was escaping, leaving behind two small mazes blocking Fo Lanying from catching up.
Fo Lanying stared dumbfounded at Yizi’s retreating figure. Was she really that terrifying?
Not only Fo Lanying, Yizi, and Jianqi noticed the odd behavior of Bai Ruozhu and Yichun, but even Gao Zhou and Tang Feng were aware.
Gao Zhou privately asked Jiang Yichun, "Weren’t you always doting on your wife before? Why are you appearing so indifferent recently, is it because you’re upset that she’s busy treating the Second Prince and are neglecting you?"
Jiang Yichun couldn’t bring up Bai Ruozhu undressing another man. It was enough for him to be upset, but he didn’t want his father to have any discontent toward Ruozhu.
"Nothing of the sort, this place is ultimately not ho, there’s always danger, so it’s best to be circumspect," Jiang Yichun casually explained.
Gao Zhou rubbed his chin, muttering, "Could it be you’re afraid that showing too much concern would let enemies use her as leverage, worrying she might fall into danger?"
Jiang Yichun didn’t respond, simply glossing over the matter.
But once Jiang Yichun left, Gao Zhou pondered sothing felt off. Bai Ruozhu was the one who saved people; if anyone wanted to retaliate, wouldn’t Achun be in greater danger?
On the other side, Tang Feng went to inquire Bai Ruozhu.
"What’s up with your man?"
Bai Ruozhu was still grinding dicine, her head lowered, "What do you an what’s up? Isn’t it the sa as always?"
Tang Feng’s eyes turned, suddenly lowering his voice, "I suspect it’s because you hurried to save soone that night and undressed the Second Prince yourself?"
Bai Ruozhu’s mouth twitched, her hands paused briefly, which Tang Feng noticed, softly laughing twice, saying, "I really guessed right, but don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone."
Bai Ruozhu was montarily at a loss for words; Tang Feng was too clever, almost demonic.
"But really, regardless of him being old-fashioned, even if it were modern n, no one wants to see their wife undressing another man right? I believe you need to gradually soothe him." Tang Feng couldn’t help but laugh aloud.
Bai Ruozhu glared at him, "Are you even a friend? How could you gloat like this?"
"No, no, it’s just the thought of you coaxing him is quite amusing," Tang Feng laughed again.
Bai Ruozhu raised her chin proudly, "What’s wrong with coaxing your own husband? If I don’t pamper him, who will? Pampering your own man isn’t disgraceful!"
Tang Feng was taken aback by her statent, involuntarily restraining his laughter, sighing, "I regret not knowing you sooner. Having a woman willing to pamper her husband to the sky is surely a blessing."
His words might have been misunderstood, but Bai Ruozhu knew he was lanting his own unfortunate love life. Considering Tang Feng’s intelligence but how he was deceived so badly by Princess Fu’an, it just showed deep affection makes one oblivious while caught up in it.
Thus, from that day onward, Bai Ruozhu began to coax the proud Yichun in various ways.
The proud one always put on a cold face, responding casually to anything, acting indifferent, but as ti passed, his anger gradually dissipated, and he enjoyed being pampered by his wife.
But after several days, Bai Ruozhu finally exploded at one point, "Are you going to keep giving a cold face forever? You’ve accepted the apology and heard all the good words, what more do you want?"
