Ch 199: You Also Have Me in Your Heart
But he politely asked every time, making Yuan Xueyue extremely shy.
Dai Yixian looked at her eyes intently and said, “I want to respect your wishes, although I really want to be with you every day…”
With that, Dai Yixian lowered his eyes shyly.
Yuan Xueyue seemed to have heard some shocking secret. The Prince had been suppressing it all along, and he wanted to be that passionate every day?
She couldn’t take it.
“Then it’s really been hard for Prince to hold back. This time, you can enjoy yourself without any worries.”
Yuan Xueyue lay down and hooked her arm around his neck, pulling him down with her.
He lay on top of her, kissing her devoutly. The passionate midnight made the maids outside the door not dare to be careless, and they were constantly on edge!
After cries of passion, Yuan Xueyue could finally lie down and rest peacefully.
The maids brought hot water, and Dai Yixian personally wiped her down, as she was exhausted.
Unexpectedly, the person lying down was more tired than the person moving.
Dai Yixian looked at her sleeping peacefully on the bed with a doting expression in the dim light of a single candle.
It was time to tell her about the Capital City…
Dawn.
Everything in the Prince’s Residence was as usual, except that Princess Xian got up even later today.
Yuan Xueyue slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was that handsome face, so close!
She was slightly startled and leaned back.
When she moved her body, she felt a soreness and numbness all over!
“Ouch!” Yuan Xueyue frowned.
Dai Yixian was startled and quickly sat up to gently embrace her!
“Did Princess enjoy last night?” Dai Yixian’s hand gently soothed her back as he asked.
At these words, Yuan Xueyue’s face was filled with embarrassment and indignation.
“How dare you even mention it!”
“Every time it’s like this, as if you’ve been thirsty for a long time.”
Dai Yixian smiled, “It’s my fault. I can never get enough of my beloved consort.”
Yuan Xueyue shook her head, “Enough, it’s enough. A Steady Stream is better.”
Dai Yixian said seriously, “But it is A Steady Stream.”
Yuan Xueyue, “…”
He had already tormented her to this point, and he still called it A Steady Stream?
If it weren’t for the bedding covering her body, she would be covered in love bites!
How could she go out like this?
Well, there was nothing to worry about in the Prince’s Residence, everything was taken care of.
Outside the Prince’s Residence, the Prince handled everything.
“Prince, please don’t talk dirty. What time is it?” Yuan Xueyue asked.
“It’s the end of Si Shi, almost noon.”
Dai Yixian stared at her in his arms with a smile, seemingly unwilling to let go so soon, but she must be hungry.
He could only reluctantly loosen his grip a little, “Are you hungry? Come, I’ll dress you.”
At this, Yuan Xueyue asked doubtfully,
“The maids can do these things. Why bother Prince?”
Dai Yixian said matter-of-factly, “It’s not inappropriate for this Prince to personally attend to my Princess.”
“Besides, it’s not the first time. Just let me.”
Without waiting for a reply, Dai Yixian walked over, took clothes from a nearby clothes rack, inner lining, middle clothes… and put them on for her first.
Yuan Xueyue then placed her feet on the edge of the bed. Dai Yixian knelt down, looking up at her with a happy smile, and carefully put on her shoes for her.
He then led her over and put on a light robe.
Dai Yixian called for the maids to come in. Everything was ready for washing up, and Qiuyan was also busy with her makeup.
Dai Yixian watched from the side. After the final touch of rouge, he stepped forward, waved Qiuyan away, and said to Yuan Xueyue,
“May your husband paint your eyebrows for you?”
Qiuyan was slightly surprised, but she still handed the brush to Dai Yixian and retreated to tidy up the basin for rinsing and washing.
She went to prepare breakfast.
โโโ
The Prince had instructed early in the morning that no matter when Princess woke up, breakfast should be ready, and lunch should also be prepared!
Princess must not miss a single meal!
“Alright.”
Yuan Xueyue smiled. Over the years, his eyebrow painting skills had improved a lot.
He had been busy with official duties these past few days, and today he was feeling lazy and in the mood to paint her eyebrows.
After a while, a light and refreshing makeup, powder and rouge, eyebrows, came into view.
Dai Yixian looked at her in the bronze mirror, then leaned in to look at her face, and smiled, “Beloved Consort is truly beautiful.”
Their appearances had also become more and more similar, with some resemblance in their expressions!
“It’s all thanks to Prince.” Yuan Xueyue smiled back.
The two held hands and sat down to eat. After a while, a sound came from outside the door!
Cuiping came in and said, “Heir Apparent and Second Young Master have come to pay their respects.”
Dai Yixian didn’t say anything and glanced at Yuan Xueyue to see her opinion: should he let those two boys in?
Dai Yixian had a way of managing the children, but he would never spoil them. This made Dai Changxing and Dai Yunxing respect their Father and Mother.
Their temperaments also became more and more orderly, except for occasionally playing pranks with traps and calligraphy!
“Let them in,” Yuan Xueyue said, nodding.
She had agreed to let them come and pay their respects.
In the Prince’s Residence, these rules didn’t apply to her.
If it were the Guo Family Residence, she would have gone to greet Old Madam Nian long ago, seen her expression, and listened to her scolding.
Now, she didn’t worry about these things at all. There was no Mother-in-Law above, only the Emperor far away in the Capital City.
Below were her two sons. Dai Yixian prioritized Yuan Xueyue first, and then came the matters of their two sons.
After inviting Heir Apparent and Second Young Master in, Cuiping asked Qiuyan to keep watch and went to Xianyue Garden to see how the place arranged by the two young masters was.
She wanted to know in advance.
As she approached Xianyue Garden, a figure appeared at the entrance of the front yard!
Xiaozhao was waving at her, beaming.
Cuiping didn’t want to go over, but she couldn’t resist him waving constantly, looking very urgent.
She went over and said, “What are your orders, Lord?”
Xiaozhao took out a bouquet of flowers from behind his back, more than a dozen so conspicuous and beautiful, instantly stunning Cuiping!
“Lord!” Cuiping took two steps back in surprise, covering her mouth in disbelief.
“For you. I know why you didn’t agree to the Prince’s words. I was presumptuous and didn’t give this to you beforehand.”
“This time, I want to strive for it myself. It’s been years, and I have no objections to you, nor would I dislike your background. You are worthy of me, and I am content.”
Xiaozhao’s words stirred Cuiping’s heart. She silently accepted the bouquet, her eyes glistening with tears!
For years, she had never thought there would be any real progress with Lord Xiaozhao.
Unexpectedly, the hard times were finally over!
The Lord truly had feelings for her!
Cuiping didn’t want to be forced by the Prince and Princess’s favor, and she didn’t want the person she loved to be pressured into accepting her!
As long as Xiaozhao was willing to take a step closer, she would accept him!
“Alright!” Cuiping said joyfully, holding the bouquet with great happiness.
Xiaozhao thought for a moment and then said,
“About the previous incident where Heir Apparent and the others played pranks on you, I’ve thought it through. Since you said you could see through their intentions and chose to play along, were you waiting for me to be your knight in shining armor?”
“I think you must have been. You Also Have Me in Your Heart…”
As soon as Xiaozhao finished speaking, Cuiping immediately turned around and ran away!
“I don’t know!”
Cuiping said as she ran, turning her back to him as she left, not letting him see her shy face.
That slightly plain face had some freckles, but her determined mind and their interactions over time had made Xiaozhao deeply fall in love with her.
With responsibility and attachment, he would work even harder to do every task well!
