1770 Her Heart Could Barely Take It

“We’re all family here and it’s a rare opportunity for you to visit the Yan Kingdom. There is no need to stand on ceremony with us.” Yuan Xin was very pleased as she walked and spoke to him while holding his hand. She even left Beitang Rui and Hexin behind.

Hexin felt a little moody as she looked at them chatting to each other happily.

She did not understand why her mother would like Long Yin so much.

“Father, what is wrong with Mother? Why is she so excited to see Big Bro Long Yin? Are looks all that matter to her?” Hexin mumbled in a low voice.

Beitang Rui had no idea whether to laugh or cry at her words. “What nonsense are you talking about? Isn’t this a rare opportunity for your Big Bro Long Yin to visit the Yan Kingdom? It’s only proper that your mother acts as a good host to him.” As he spoke, he turned to look at her with a smile and said, “Are you jealous of your mother being nice to your Big Bro Long Yin?”

Hexin pouted. “I’m not. That said, aren’t you jealous, Father?”

“Stop being ridiculous. Your mother and I are an old couple. What is there to be jealous of?” Beitang Rui brushed this off. What would it look like if people found out that he was being jealous of a junior? Even though Yuan Xin was being a little too enthusiastic when spending time with Long Yin, it did not mean much.

Yuan You walked next to Hexin and said in a small voice, “Cousin Xinxin, why do I feel that you’re being hostile toward Crown Prince Long Yin? Aren’t you two supposed to be close? You spent so much time at Great Shang two years ago. Both of you should be on very good terms.”

Hexin was taken aback and quickly denied it. “What are you talking about? When have we not been on good terms?”

Yuan You scratched her head, puzzled. “Aren’t you? Why do I feel that something strange is going on between both of you?”

“Nothing like that is happening. Stop letting your imagination run wild.” Hexin felt a little guilty about this.

Meanwhile, in Serenity Palace.

Yaoyao was already lying in bed after Qing He and the others attended to her. She fell asleep the moment she got into bed because she was exhausted from the entire day.

While she was sleeping, she suddenly felt the bed shake. Yaoyao opened her eyes drowsily and saw Beitang You sitting by the bed, looking at her with a smile.

She went blank momentarily and finally remembered that it was the night of their wedding, which immediately woke her up.

Yaoyao sat up feeling slightly awkward. When she saw that he had already changed out of his wedding robe and was wearing his inner garments with some water drops on him, she realized he must have taken his bath.

Her face turned hot at this thought and she broke the silence. “Have you been back for a long time?”

Beitang You’s dark eyes stared at her as he nodded. “Yes. You’ve probably waited a long time for me, haven’t you? You were asleep when I came back and I didn’t want to wake you.”

Yaoyao felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. This was their wedding night and she climbed into bed and fell asleep instead of waiting for him. Why did she feel like she was being a bad wife?

“I wanted to wait for you but I was too tired. I could not help it and fell asleep,” she said in a small voice as she lowered her head in apology.

“It’s fine. You should sleep if you’re tired.” Beitang You caressed her pretty hair.

Yaoyao gave a quiet sigh of relief when she heard that. She pulled the covers back on herself and laid down again. “I’ll go to sleep now, then.”

Beitang You, “…”

He coughed gently and took off his shoes to get into bed, laying next to her.

His eyes crinkled with a smile as he watched the girl’s gently fluttering eyelashes.

The moment had finally come with everything being set in stone. He had married the girl of his dreams.

Yaoyao sensed his fingers brushing her face. She was already feeling nervous and now that he was touching her so sensually, her heart could barely take it.

She had wanted to avoid this by pretending to fall asleep.

However, she could no longer put up the pretense when he was being so assertive.

She decided to stop acting and abruptly opened her eyes.
