Chapter 357 The vixen is even more alluring.
Yu Wan was secretly grumbling to herself, but Yun Shang seemed to sense her thoughts. He smiled slightly, placed a kiss on her forehead, and whispered, "What, don't you like me keeping you company?"
Yu Wan was stunned.
How come Yun Shang's mouth suddenly became so eloquent after she went to the Censorate?
Yu Wan read the entire original novel, a million words long, and couldn't find a single soft word spoken by the male protagonist.
But now, Yun Shang speaks sweet words with ease.
Yu Wan tilted her head slightly, looking at Yun Shang with a hint of inquiry, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up slightly. "I just find it strange."
"I've never seen you so good at sweet-talking people before. Why the sudden change in your personality today?"
Yun Shang reached out and gently pinched her cheek, the movement soft and affectionate, his eyes full of tender smiles.
He was completely different from how he used to be.
"What, you don't like it? Then I won't do it this way."
As he spoke, he tried to withdraw his hand, looking serious.
But the teasing and mocking look in his eyes was impossible to hide.
Yu Wan saw all of this, but felt no shame or anger. She just felt that the scene before her was somewhat unreal.
With Yun Shang in this state, he has completely broken free from the control of the plot, right?
Seeing that she hadn't replied for a long time, Yun Shang suddenly leaned closer and pressed his cool lips to the corner of her lips.
Yu Wan's breath hitched suddenly.
The warm touch on her lips was like a dragonfly skimming the water, yet it stirred up a storm in her heart.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but look up at him.
The curtains blocking out the light by the window were not yet drawn, and only a faint ray of sunlight shone in from outside, casting fine shadows on Yun Shang's drooping eyelashes.
Those eyes, which were as deep and dark as a frozen pool, were now shimmering with a soft light, as if they could drown a person.
“You…” Her throat tightened, her fingertips unconsciously gripping the cuff of his nightgown, as if she were about to drown in the vortex of his eyes.
She murmured softly, "...There's nothing I don't like."
Hearing Yu Wan's soft murmur, Yun Shang's smile deepened.
This seemed to be the first time he had shown such emotional expression.
He gently stroked Yu Wan's fingers that were gripping his sleeve, again and again, the movements soft and slow.
Yu Wan was itching to do something with his seemingly unintentional action.
Is he trying to seduce her?
definitely is!
Yu Wan subconsciously glanced down.
I've heard that men do *that* in the morning. Could it be that Yun Shang has been holding it in for too long and can't hold it in any longer?
Thinking of this, Yu Wan's face flushed red, burning from her cheeks all the way to her ears.
Pleasure in broad daylight... isn't necessarily forbidden.
"Why is your face so red? What are you thinking about?"
Suddenly, Yu Wan heard him say this.
Yun Shang's voice carried a hint of teasing, and his warm breath brushed against her neck, causing her to tremble slightly.
Could Yu Wan say that she was thinking about that kind of thing? Of course not!
She bit her lip lightly, raised her head and glared at Yun Shang, her eyes unconsciously carrying a hint of coquettishness.
Little did she know that her glance was no different from an invitation in Yun Shang's eyes.
He was a normal man, and the woman in his arms was the wife he had longed for. After so many days and nights of sharing the same bed, even Yun Shang himself had never expected that he could be so restrained.
only……
He's endured so much, and if he gives in now, won't all his previous efforts be in vain?
Yun Shang suppressed the surging heat in her heart and, before Yu Wan could say anything, suddenly threw off the covers and got up, her voice tinged with panic: "It's getting late, we should get up. Mother must be waiting for us to have breakfast."
Yu Wan was still thinking that even if Yun Shang didn't lose his beastly nature, the two of them would at least have some tender moments in bed.
To everyone's surprise, Yun Shang suddenly threw off the covers and got out of bed.
The flush on her face instantly subsided, and as she looked at Yun Shang getting dressed, the doubts she had felt before resurfaced in her mind.
Is the male lead really capable?
The room was very quiet, and even the slightest rustling sound of clothes rubbing together seemed to be amplified infinitely.
Yu Wan frowned as she watched Yun Shang put on his clothes one by one. She ground her back teeth, then suddenly threw off the covers and walked barefoot behind Yun Shang.
The house was heated by a brazier, and even though there was frost outside, it was as warm as summer inside.
Yu Wan doesn't like wearing too many layers to sleep, and the nightgown she's wearing is one she altered.
The fabric used was the smoothest, most skin-friendly silk, so light and thin as a cicada's wing, which perfectly outlined her graceful figure.
She was barefoot, her fair feet touching the soft carpet, and she approached Yun Shang silently.
Yun Shang was focused on tying his sash.
He wasn't unaware of Yu Wan's approach; he simply assumed she was also getting up and getting dressed. But unexpectedly, the next moment...
He felt a warm, soft body pressed against his back.
Yu Wan reached out and wrapped her arms around his waist from behind, pressing her cheeks tightly against his back, her hair gently brushing against his neck.
Yun Shang's hand suddenly stopped, and his breathing became rapid.
He could clearly feel the temperature of Yu Wan's body. The heat quickly penetrated through her thin clothes and reached his skin, causing the desire he had managed to suppress to stir again.
"what happened?"
Yun Shang's clear, cool voice became hoarse.
Yu Wan tilted her head slightly, gently blew a breath on the back of his neck, and then said softly, "It's still early."
"Besides, if Mother sees that we haven't gotten up yet, she will leave us food; she won't wait for us indefinitely."
Her voice was soft and melodious, and the unspoken meaning was quite clear.
Yun Shang naturally understood, but he said in a hoarse voice, "It's getting late, we still have important matters to attend to today."
"Business? What business?"
Didn't you take leave?
Yun Shang didn't even have the courage to turn around and look at her again. He slowly closed his dark eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "I'll take you to the Duke of Anguo's mansion later."
Hearing this, Yu Wan was truly stunned.
Send her to the Duke of Anguo's residence? Why?
Yu Wan was full of questions and was about to ask them when she heard Yun Shang say, "Have you forgotten? There are only a few days left until our wedding ceremony."
Yu Wan blinked.
The beautiful thoughts I had just had vanished almost instantly.
She really forgot about it completely!
……
Yu Wan felt that this was not her fault.
After they arrived in the capital, troubles kept piling up and never stopped. During this time, they also caused a lot of trouble because of that detestable Prince Yong.
So much had happened that her mind was completely occupied by these worries, and she had completely forgotten that she and Yun Shang were going to have their wedding again.
The main reason was that neither family's elders allowed them to get involved in the matter, so Yu Wan didn't participate and naturally forgot about it.
According to custom, she should stay at her parents' home for a few days before the wedding, which is why Yun Shang said he would send her to the Duke of Anguo's mansion today.
