Chapter 345: I am Not a Pervert
Chapter 345
Gu Ying saw the man's adam's apple bob up and down and the bulging veins on his neck, and for some reason, her eyes misted over, "I'm not like Cheng, okay?"
"Of course you're far better than Cheng," Zhao Changdu smirked, "Does Miss Gu really think it was Cheng who tamed her husband?"
Gu Ying said, "If not?"
Zhao Changdu chuckled lightly, "It's just my Zhao family rules. Zhao men take protecting the family and country as their duty and are only allowed to marry, not take concubines."
Gu Ying was surprised, "I've never heard of that before?"
"You weren't originally from the Zhao family, how could you have heard? What's more, Zhao Hui had already ruined the reputation of Zhao men, so naturally people outside have forgotten about this old family rule of the Zhaos. They all think we Zhao men are shameless male fox spirits."
Gu Ying snorted with laughter, looking at the man's handsome face like a painting, "The words 'male fox spirit' suit you perfectly, Changdu."
Zhao Changdu's eyes were deep and obscure. He reached out and untied her waistband, "Go on."
He undid it, and Gu Ying tied it back up again, deliberately teasing him, "Go on what?"
"Tell me what magic potion you gave me to make me so hopelessly obsessed with you."
The man pinched her waist with his big hand. Gu Ying let out a lingering, tantalizing moan, "I didn't..."
This coquettish whine was undoubtedly his magic potion.
Zhao Changdu ground his teeth, and his eyes misted over. With a wave of his big hand,
the large red canopy bed curtains suddenly fell down, blocking the endless spring scenery inside.
Soon after, the faint cries of a woman could be heard from inside the room.
Yin Lan, who was standing guard at the door, blushed again and again. Thinking that since her master had already retired, she should go and boil the hot water first.
Inside the small kitchen, Huai An came in after finishing his patrol to eat a midnight snack. Seeing Yin Lan's pretty flushed face, he asked in puzzlement, "Yin Lan, what's the matter with you?"
Yin Lan touched her burning hot face and said, "It's nothing."
Huai An was starving, with his chest sticking to his back. He lifted the pot lid, and was a little disappointed to see it was just boiling water. "Are there any buns left?"
Yin Lan wiped her hands on her skirt, went to the steamer and took out two large white buns for Huai An, "Eat these."
Huai An looked at Yin Lan from the side, staring straight at her without saying anything.
Yin Lan felt very uncomfortable under his gaze, "What are you looking at me for?"
Huai An grinned foolishly, "You don't call me Master Huai anymore these days."
Yin Lan pursed her lips, "I just feel there's no need to be so distant between us..."
Hearing this, Huai An was overjoyed. Without letting her finish speaking, he leaned over and kissed the corner of her mouth swiftly.
Yin Lan was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to move back, but when she met the man's dark, eager gaze, she froze.
Huai An had thought Yin Lan would reject him and was scared he wanted to run away. But seeing that she neither hit him nor refused his kiss, he was instantly delighted.
"Yin Lan, I...I'm so happy..."
Although the two had feelings for each other, ever since returning from Yueyang, there seemed to be a veil between Yin Lan and him...unspoken, yet vaguely ambiguous.
Sometimes he felt very distressed, not knowing whether Yin Lan loved him or was just grateful to him.
He lay awake all night, wanting to ask her clearly, but every time he saw her face, he couldn't bring it up... He thought, this girl had such a miserable life before, and was mistreated by bad men. Should he force her too?
The Lady had said, to care for someone is to hope for their well-being. Why should he give Yin Lan pressure and troubles?
For the rest of his life, as long as he treats her well, caters to her every need, and sees her living healthily and happily, he would be content.
He never expected that an impulsive kiss tonight, and Yin Lan didn't push him away.
Huai An was ecstatic. He gingerly walked up to Yin Lan, still holding the two big white buns in his hands, "Yin Lan, do you want some? Let's eat together?"
Seeing the honest smile on his face, Yin Lan chuckled and teased, "Are you sure you want to keep holding them like that?"
Huai An lowered his eyes. Not looking at the buns in his hands, but at Yin Lan's "buns" on her chest.
He suddenly felt his nose go hot. He hurriedly raised his head, "Sorry, sorry, the weather is getting hotter, I'm really restless...it's nothing to do with you!"
Yin Lan was startled by his actions. Fortunately, she was mature and sensible, knew a lot, and immediately took a handkerchief, soaked it in cool water, and put it on the back of his neck.
After flustering about for a while, Huai An finally settled down next to Yin Lan, like an obedient big dog, sitting neatly beside its owner.
He held his neck rigidly, his face red, not diverting his gaze, "Yin Lan, you know so much, no one ever taught me before that a nosebleed can be treated like this."
Yin Lan was quiet for a while, then suddenly laughed, "Huai An, turn around."
Huai An licked his dry lips, "Turn...turn around for what?"
Yin Lan pulled his arm.
Huai An turned around as if facing a formidable enemy, and was met with Yin Lan's fair little face. Before he could speak, he saw Yin Lan lean in to kiss him.
Her kiss was different from his. Her lips were soft as hell.
Wet and sweet, that soft and warm thing was like a naughty little rabbit, sneaking into his mouth when he least expected it.
Huai An's mind buzzed, and his whole body froze in a daze.
Even more humiliating was that his body was completely out of control, and had reacted very inappropriately when Yin Lan leaned in!
Yin Lan's eyes were misty as she let him go, her gaze lowering...
She froze for a moment, instantly turning red, also not expecting that the tall and sturdy Huai An would get so easily excited...and looking at it, it was quite sizeable too.
Huai An was still frozen. He hurriedly covered his crotch with his hands. For a while, he didn't know what expression he should make, after all, he was still a virgin who hadn't touched a woman before, but his own... was really disobedient...in front of the woman he liked, he had utterly embarrassed himself!
"Yin Lan...I..."
"Um...you go take care of it yourself."
After Yin Lan said that, she walked into the kitchen, her face red.
Huai An nervously swallowed, and followed to explain, "Yin Lan, I'm not a pervert, nor did I do it on purpose...you mustn't get the wrong idea..."
"Do you think your explanation now would be convincing like this?"
"But I'm worried about you..."
"Then why don't you go back to your room now..."
"I...Yin Lan..." Huai An was so anxious he didn't know what to do. There was an inexplicable urge in his heart, making his heart thump like a deer, wanting to hold Yin Lan in his arms.
But Yin Lan was ruthless, not even looking at him once.
He wasn't the kind of person who would force others either. Seeing Yin Lan like this, it was as if there were ants on a hot pan in his heart now.
"Yin Lan, I'll go back first then..." He felt a little aggrieved, not knowing exactly what he was aggrieved about.
He just felt it would be good if Yin Lan could help him out now.
But how could she help? He didn't dare think further down that path. Having no choice, he lowered his head and walked out, even forgetting to eat the buns.
Hearing the rustling sounds behind her, Yin Lan finally turned around, her face red.
The hot water had already boiled several times. In the wee hours, there was still no sign of stopping from the main room.
She stood under the corridor, thinking of Huai An's silly look, and the corners of her lips curved up.
