Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 114.2: Waiting for the Play, Sleeping Together

After Yuan Qiao Qiao fell asleep, Jing Wan shifted to the side before slowly falling asleep as well.

When Gong mama came in to check, she saw that childish sleeping posture of Yuan Qiao Qiao’s and helplessly smiled. As expected, it was still her own miss that was the most reassuring. But precisely because she never needed others to worry about her, it made others inevitably heartache for her even more. “If Wangye were to see, you will certainly suffer a calamity.” Just when Gong mama was preparing to have Yuan Qiao Qiao moved further inside…..

“What will suffer a calamity if this prince were to see?”

Gong mama was quite startled by this sudden voice. She turned her head, and sure enough, a certain living Enma was neither slowly nor quickly approaching, those steps lacking the slightest sound. Gong mama also knew her martial arts, compared to this one, was some distances away. If he doesn’t want her to discover, then she really can only wait until he appears before her eyes to know. “Wangye………”

And at this time, Li Hong Yuan already saw the situation on the bed. Although he’d long discovered that there was another person on the bed, just this specific circumstance……….His expression darkened, reaching out wanting to strangle Yuan Qiao Qiao.

“Wangye!” Gong mama hurriedly went forward and grabbed Li Hong Yuan’s hand. She knew that by letting this one see this, Miss Yuan will probably suffer, but this one, instead, was directly tempted to kill. “Wangye, please reconsider.”

“Let go.” Li Hong Yuan’s yet to dispel killing intent directly forced back Gong mama.

The usually composed Gong mama’s heart also began uncontrollably beating as she slowly released her hand.

Before she could say anything more, Li Hong Yuan’s feet suddenly shifted, swiftly slipping into the shadows.

“Mama.” Jing Wan’s voice was somewhat coarse in her half-awake state.

Gong mama quickly calmed her heart, “Miss, did this servant disturb you?”

“No.” Jing Wan carefully moved Yuan Qiao Qiao’s hand away from her and sat up, “Have the beauty recliner tidied up, I’ll sleep on there. I’m accustomed to sleeping alone, so having someone else sleeping next to me is uncomfortable.”

Gong mama seamlessly casted a glance in the direction Li Hong Yuan was hiding. Wangye at the moment probably further want to have Miss Yuan thrown out. Gong mama adjusted the blanket for Jing Wan, “Miss, please wait a moment, don’t catch a cold.”

Gong mama swiftly had the beauty recliner tidied up, then spread the sheets, and even rapidly filled a few ‘hot water bottle’, stuffing them into the bedding. Although it was already spring, it was still somewhat cold at nights, and shifting to another place, it definitely wouldn’t be that comfortable at first.

Jing Wan hugged her knees with her pillow on her knees as she watched the attentive and meticulous Gong mama. Actually, there was completely no need to do all this. It was only a little bit cold today, and moreover, her body has always been excellent, so how could she catch a cold this easily. But, even if she said this Gong mama, she still won’t listen to her. Just like how she usually would always listen to her grandmother, but once it involved her grandmother’s health, she would be extremely stubborn. And on her health, Gong mama was similarly unyielding.

While Jing Wan was watching Gong mama work, Li Hong Yuan was also watching her. Perhaps because Jing Wan at the moment was gently smiling, tranquil and happy, it made his heart become exceedingly tranquil. Thus, his gaze towards Jing Wan also became exceedingly peaceful and gentle, seemingly as if just quietly watching over her like this for a lifetime was fine too.

As a result, never mind Jing Wan, if Gong mama didn’t already know that there was another person in this room, she probably all wouldn’t have noticed. And it was also fortunate that this person, although peeped at her miss, still won’t do anything that will harm miss.

After Jing Wan went to sleep, Gong mama lit a bit of nerve calming incense, and Jing Wan very quickly fell asleep.

Li Hong Yuan walked out from the shadows, directly walking over to the recliner and sitting down.

From the moment Li Hong Yuan recruited Gong mama at ten years old, Gong mama has rarely ever seen Li Hong Yuan genuinely at peace like this from the bottom of his heart. Thus, the words at the tip of her tongue were swallowed back down.

Ever since there was the first night visit, Li Hong Yuan would occasionally appear from time to time. However, today wasn’t a good time. After all, with that many people in the Luo Manor, and moreover, because tomorrow was the wedding banquet, afraid many won’t be sleeping this early. If someone were to see, how can that be good? But right now, Gong mama indeed wasn’t able to open her mouth. After all, he was the child that she’d watched grow up. Even though she very much dislikes his certain conducts, she still can’t help but feel soft towards him.

Li Hong Yuan quietly watched Jing Wan for a while, then casually removed his outer coat and lifted the blankets, crawling inside and holding Jing Wan in his arms. Afterwards, Jing Wan subconsciously snuggled against his chest.

Jing Wan’s reaction greatly amused Li Hong Yuan. He not only smiled with his mouth, but even the depths of his eyes were full of smiles. Previously, she even said she can’t sleep well with someone next to her, yet now, voluntarily snuggled towards his arms. What did this mean? This meant that he was special, meaning that she was already slowly beginning to get use to his embrace. Of course, he didn’t rule out the possibility that because she was deeply asleep, her subconscious mind was already familiar with this kind of situation, and thus wasn’t startled.

Li Hong Yuan reached out and rubbed her head, then kissed her forehead. By the time where the nerve calming incense doesn’t need to be lit, and she can still fall asleep in his arms, then perhaps, his goal for the most part will have already been reached.

When Li Hong Yuan was about to close his eyes, he inadvertently casted a glance at the bed, “Have the person thrown out for this prince.”

“Wangye, please reconsider, if Miss Yuan is moved out at this time, afraid it will startle others.” Gong mama said, as she hesitated for a moment before walking over to the bed and having the layers of bed curtains lowered.

Li Hong Yuan coldly sneered, “This kind of thing, this prince hopes there isn’t a next time. Aside from this prince, no one can appear on Wan Wan’s bed, understand?”

“Yes, Wangye.” Gong mama replied. Not because if this kind of thing were to happen again, what this living Enma would do to himself, but rather if there really is a next time, the person sleeping on miss’s bed will certainly be eliminated by this living Enma, and definitely won’t be like this time, being easily spared.

Gong mama no longer opened her mouth. She took the lantern and quietly stepped out.

This night quietly went by just like this. When Jing Wan woke up the next day, she didn’t feel anything was off either, and because her sleep has always been good, she has never suspected anything. Without any sluggishness, she directly got up and began her morning exercises, not shaken by thunder^[1].

When Jing Wan finished an hour of exercise, she was sweating all over.

Seeing this kind of Jing Wan, Yuan Qiao Qiao’s wet nurse couldn’t help but ask Jing Wan’s wet nurse, “Is your miss always like this?”

“Yes, and because there are still matters to attend to today, the time is even a little shorter than usual.”

Yuan Qiao Qiao’s wet nurse couldn’t help glancing around Jing Wan’s room. Without even needing to look, she already knew that her own miss, this while, was most likely still sleeping like a little pig. Waking her up, one even needed to put in a great deal of effort. She helplessly sighed and resigned to fate, preparing to go wake her.

Jing Wan relaxingly took a bath, and under the servant girls’ help, changed clothes and finished washing up. Afterwards, she began using the morning meal, because today, she didn’t need to go give her morning greetings.

By the time Yuan Qiao Qiao appeared yawning, Jing Wan had already more or less finished eating.

“Wan Wan, you got up this early?

Jing Wan didn’t reply to her and just pointed across from herself, letting her sit down.

Yuan Qiao Qiao, under the servant girl’s support, sat down, and saw the things on the table. “Wan Wan, you just eat this plainly?”

Jing Wan finished drinking the porridge in her bowl and wiped her mouth, “Eating lighter foods in the morning is good for the body.” Just as she finished speaking, the servant girls had Yuan Qiao Qiao’s share of the breakfast brought over.

Yuan Qiao Qiao’s nose twitched, “Appears simple, but smells delicious.”

Jing Wan had her finished off the blood swallow porridge first before eating the rest.

This probably was Yuan Qiao Qiao’s first time eating such a simple breakfast, but she just felt it was especially delicious. As least compared to when she ate at home in the past, she ate a little more than double the portion. Just, because she usually would eat very little, in addition to usually not having any appetite in the mornings, eating this much more today rather didn’t make her feel bloated. However, even so, Yuan Qiao Qiao still discovered that Jing Wan ate even more than her.

“Wan Wan, turns out you can eat this much, aren’t your afraid of getting fat?”

Jing Wan has never believed herself to be someone who was especially gluttonous, probably just eating a third of the amount more than ordinary young ladies. “I won’t get fat.” She was someone who exercised every day. Although normally it was just in the mornings, but when she was free, she would also exercise during the day and at night. She wasn’t the type to get fat easily to begin with, so naturally it was unlikely to get fat.

“A few years ago, because of growing, I ate a lot, but my fat also started growing too, so my mother forbade me from eating more.” Wanting to eat but can’t eat was a very painful thing.

“Just move around more.”

Just when the table was cleared up, “Miss, fourth miss brought the other misses over.”

“This early in the morning, she’s rather energetic.”
