Thanks to those dreams, Xie Wanqing wasn’t truly an innocent girl.
She understood the implication of his words almost instantly.
Her face turned a little red imdiately.
She broke free from his arms, sat up straight on her own, and awkwardly said, "I was just curious, not trying to tease you on purpose."
With his arms suddenly empty, Pei Yuqing instinctively pinched his fingertips. Noticing her discomfort, he lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Curious about what?"
Xie Wanqing was silent for a few monts but eventually confessed. She stared at the protrusion on his neck with sparkling eyes and said, "Curious about why n’s throats have a bulge."
"..." Pei Yuqing looked at her speechlessly and said softly, "Nonsense."
He didn’t allow her to openly investigate his Adam’s apple, and although Xie Wanqing was bold in front of him, she hesitated to make a move due to the earlier embarrassnt.
The experience in her dreams told her that n didn’t seem to be able to endure such things.
Lu Ziyuan was such a cold and arrogant man, yet passionate towards Liu Manrou. Even during the newlywed period, he couldn’t bear to leave her bed and couldn’t be chased away when lust was upon him.
He was only an eighteen-year-old boy, and the man in front of her was already twenty-seven.
He should be even more...
Realizing what kind of ssy thoughts she was having, Xie Wanqing’s face blushed slightly.
Those dreams were too real, almost like she had experienced them herself.
Even as a decent young girl, her mind had beco like that of a married woman.
Feeling a bit annoyed, Xie Wanqing’s hand was grabbed by the person next to her.
Pei Yuqing thought she was sulking because he hadn’t indulged her. After so hesitation, he said quietly, "If you really want to play, then go ahead."
"..." Xie Wanqing swallowed, her heart pounding.
She didn’t know whether it was his words or his indulgent attitude.
Even her gentle, loving mother and her protective father never indulged her this much, let alone her brother, who always liked to nag her.
But this man...
Xie Wanqing slightly tugged at the corners of her lips and slowly raised her hand to touch the side of his neck. Feeling the gentle throb of the artery under her fingertips, she moved little by little towards his Adam’s apple.
Pei Yuqing endured it with difficulty, his heart beating rapidly due to nerves, and his breathing gradually beca erratic.
His heartbeat was so loud that Xie Wanqing, who was close by, could hear it. Finally, she stopped her actions, not wanting to tease him anymore.
"Brother Changqing," she taught him seriously, "you need to have your own principles and temper. You can’t indulge in everything."
Pei Yuqing accepted the lesson, "Okay."
Xie Wanqing smiled with satisfaction and warned again, "I have a bad temper and am best at taking advantage. If you indulge in everything, I will just beco more unaware of my limits and bully you."
Pei Yuqing softly responded with a hum.
"As long as you understand," Xie Wanqing poked his neck and laughed, "just like now, I am deliberately trying to tease you, and you should refuse sternly and not be soft-hearted."
Pei Yuqing nodded, "Okay."
The young girl’s fingertips were gentle, and the pressure made him feel tornted. Pei Yuqing’s Adam’s apple swallowed again, but this ti she didn’t notice, yet her cute little mouth kept chattering.
"Don’t keep saying okay," Xie Wanqing urged. "Now, sternly refuse ."
Pei Yuqing really didn’t know what to do with her. He took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes, finally not saying okay but admitting frankly, "I can’t bring myself to refuse."
Xie Wanqing: "..."
Soone who considered herself thick-skinned was embarrassed by his words, turning beetroot red. She bit her teeth and ended up saying, "You really listen."
Telling him not to be insincere ant he wouldn’t even put on an act.
Pei Yuqing understood her aning, lifted his eyelids to glance at her, and sighed, "Wanwan..."
His voice was helpless but full of indulgence.
Xie Wanqing pursed her lips, unable to say a word for a long ti.
Finally, she stood up suddenly, "It’s late, I’m going back to rest."
As she finished speaking, she hurriedly left, but the person sitting next to her grabbed her wrist to stop her.
Pei Yuqing said, "Shall I go to your courtyard to check things over?"
He still rembered his promise to help check whether the servants in her courtyard had properly scattered insect repellent powder.
Xie Wanqing thought for a mont and nodded.
Pei Er suddenly appeared out of nowhere with a jade bottle that looked identical to the one she had thrown into the lake earlier.
This ti, Xie Wanqing said honestly, "I brought the dicine pills to the estate, they’re in the room."
As for why she lied about not bringing them, of course, it was to tease him to co over...
Pei Yuqing wasn’t surprised. After dismissing the subordinates, he stood up holding her wrist.
The two walked hand in hand towards her courtyard.
The midsumr moonlight was bright, and even the shadows of the trees were clearly visible. The cool night breeze blew past, bringing a sense of serenity and peace.
Xie Wanqing’s fingers moved silently, interlocking with his, and she whispered, "I didn’t either."
It was a very abrupt statent. Pei Yuqing first listened, slightly stunned, before quickly understanding what she ant.
He halted in place, and Xie Wanqing stopped with him, tilting her head to look at him. The mont their eyes t, her eyebrows curved into a teasing smile, "Want to kiss ? As long as your heart can take it, I’m okay with it."
She was used to flirting in front of him, and such bold words almost ca naturally. But this ti, the person in front of her didn’t lower his eyes in embarrassnt or avoid it but simply stared at her.
"Wanwan..." Pei Yuqing moved his lips and struggled to speak, "Do you have feelings for ?"
Xie Wanqing was stunned for a mont and said, "If I didn’t like you, why would I insist on marrying you?"
She frowned deeply, explaining for herself, "I wanted to marry you to escape Lu Ziyuan. In terms of status and character, you were the best choice, but if I didn’t like you at all, I wouldn’t have chased after you again to ask if you’d marry after you refused once."
Did he really think she had no other prospects for marriage!
Xie Wanqing, full of indignation, glared at him, only to see the usually composed man’s lips move, seeming to want to say sothing, but then he bowed his head.
In the next mont, her lips were covered by his, the warm, clear scent enveloping her, her pupils shrinking sharply, her heart skipped a beat, and her hand instinctively resisted against his chest, trying to push him away.
But in the end, thinking of sothing, she didn’t exert force and instead rested her hand weakly against his chest.
Their lips entwined for a while, Xie Wanqing felt the heartbeat under her palm becoming more chaotic, and only then did she forcefully push him away, "Your heart is beating too fast, be careful..."
Halfway through her sentence, she was pushed back two steps by the man in front of her, until her back was pressed against a nearby tree, and her chin was lifted again, her lips covered once more.
This ti it wasn’t just a peck on the lips. As soon as he leaned in to kiss her, his thumb gently pressed against her jaw with slight force.
When her lips parted slightly, he delved deeply.
Xie Wanqing’s unfinished words turned into soft whimpering sounds.
