无翼乌工口里番无色无摭挡

This surprised Li Hongyuan as well. “What’s wrong with you?”

Jiang Ning sighed with relief when she realized it was him. “Your Highness, don’t speak to people from behind when they are engrossed. It scares them to death.”

“Didn’t I tell you earlier that I would come tonight?”

“You did, but I forgot for a moment.”

“How could you forget?” Li Hongyuan didn’t know what to say.

Although he was only a crown prince, having multiple wives and concubines was a common thing for royal and noble men. If a man said beforehand that he would spend the night in a certain room, the woman could only be secretly pleased and prepare in advance. How could it be forgotten?

This was just another proof that she didn’t care about him deep down.

Seeing his face darken, Jiang Ning hurriedly explained, “I’m used to living alone, and even Lingzi and Wenzan rarely stay in my room, so…”

“I know, you don’t need to explain.”

Li Hongyuan stood by the bed and opened his arms.

Jiang Ning looked at him.

Li Hongyuan raised his eyebrows, “What are you staring at? Come and help me change. Serving your master with dressing and bedtime, didn’t the nanny teach you these rules before you got married?”

“She did,” Jiang Ning said slowly, “I just never thought I’d really have to do it.”

“Do you think I, the Crown Prince, have no manners?”

“You are the Crown Prince, the future Emperor, your words are the rules.” Jiang Ning put down her book, got out of bed, and stood in front of him, helping him change.

She wore only a thin layer of white sleepwear, with her long, fluffy hair scattered loosely behind her. Her slightly messy hair made her beautiful face appear even more adorable.

Inheriting the beauty of Lin Zizi, she possessed the charm to bewitch the world.

However, she was still young, with a naive face and a lazy expression, far from Lin Zizi’s stunning grace back in the day.

But looking at the face before him, Li Hongyuan believed that given a few years, she would surely become a true great beauty.

Jiang Ning was much shorter than him, and had to tiptoe slightly to undo the top button on his collar.

Her naive and beautiful face, puzzled by the complicated structure of the python robe, unconsciously bit her lip.

Li Hongyuan felt bewitched, lifting her chin and bending down to kiss her lips.

Jiang Ning’s hands were still gripping his buttons.

Li Hongyuan pulled her waist, pressing her body tightly against his, deepening their kiss.

Jiang Ning’s hands shifted to his chest, and her body language showed extreme resistance, but she didn’t push him away or express any annoyance.

Li Hongyuan initially had no intention of doing anything to her.

When he said he would spend the night in her room earlier, it was partly out of spite, knowing that she was unwilling.

However, now he was becoming greedy for more.

The last time they were intimate seemed like a long, long time ago.

Li Hongyuan missed that feeling.

He gently lifted her and placed her on the bed, gazing into her eyes, asking softly, “Can we?”

Jiang Ning shook her head honestly.

Li Hongyuan asked, “Are you going to reject me forever? Since we are husband and wife, we should do what a husband and wife should do.”

Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, “I don’t want to get pregnant.”
