Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 190.2: Allowing You to Sit as an Equal

When putting on clothes for him, she also wasn’t that efficient either. Growing up, the people serving her were all too diligent. She for the most part has never put on clothes herself before, so even dressing herself, she all wasn’t able to perfectly manage. Moreover, a certain someone wasn’t even cooperating all that much, continuously moving around, and after some time, his clothes were still loose, appearing particularly enticing. However, Jing Wan right now wasn’t in the mood to admire the beauty. After such a round of messing around, she still haven’t started her morning exercises, yet already produced a body of sweat. Fortunately, a certain person still knew a bit of propriety, and seeing that Jing Wan really was about to be annoyed, just took over himself. Very nimbly, in less than a minute, he was already finished.

You have this hand speed^[1], yet insist on her, this ‘crippled hand’, to come do it, was there a point? However, even she was one that didn’t know how to dress herself properly, so a dignified qinwang, who should have even more servant, and whose servants should be even more meticulous, having the ability to be this self-reliant, not only made one surprised, but was also very strange.

Li Hong Yuan, after putting on his shoes, stood up, reaching out to pinch Jing Wan’s chin, his brows carrying a smile, “It’s fine if you don’t know how. In the future, it can also be this prince serving the wangfei.” As he said this, he even leaned over, kissing the corner of her mouth.

Jing Wan directly rolled her eyes at him, “Wangye best leave that honor for someone else, this subject is unworthy.”

Li Hong Yuan slightly narrowed his eyes. These kinds of words of hers made him a bit angry. He reached out and embraced Jing Wan’s waist, locking into his arms, “You are this prince’s wife, if even you’re unworthy, then under the heavens, who would still be worthy? Jing Wan, to be able to sit as equals with this prince, there’s only you alone, understand?”

Sit as equals? These words made Jing Wan extraordinarily shocked. In this secular environment, where the imperial power was absolute, and where men were regarded as superior to women, even the first di wife all didn’t have the qualifications to sit as an equal with her husband, else why was there the saying ‘view the husband as the sky’? Even the Empress who was mother of the world was all the same. In Jing Wan’s eyes, someone like Li Hong Yuan, further was able to completely not have women taken seriously. Yet he actually would say something like this? Jing Wan was even about to suspect whether or not he’d gotten possessed by a transmigrator? “As the legal wife? Regardless of what, many thanks wangye?”

How could Li Hong Yuan still not understand Jing Wan’s meaning. She assumed that who he respected was just the legal wife, and no matter who sat in this position, it was all the same. She just never knew, “Not the legal wife, but you. Only you can sit in this position, understand? Only you, Luo Jing Wan, the one and only, the most complete you.”

Jing Wan blanked. What he’s saying, is it that meaning that she’s understanding it as? But, is it possible? He once had that many fiancees, and at that time, he didn’t cross paths with her at all. But, as she stared at Li Hong Yuan, her heart somewhat uncontrollably sped up. As expected, everyone all like hearing these kinds of romantic words, even she herself wasn’t an exception either.

Jing Wan always told herself to guard her own heart, don’t beat for any one man, yet she didn’t know, if it really can be controlled, then that wouldn’t be called love. A good while later, Jing Wan pulled out a smile, ” Is that so? Many thanks for wangye’s deep affections.”

Even she herself didn’t know just how stiffly and forcibly she was smiling.

Li Hong Yuan was suddenly somewhat deflated. This girl, as expected, still didn’t believe, and just didn’t understand. That’s why, sometimes, he even had the urge to tell her everything, but in the end, he still cooled off this kind of thinking. Wan Wan was never someone that can easily be moved by sweet talk and honeyed words. If he were to narrate to her those deep feelings unknown to anyone, she perhaps would just treat it as him deliberately making up a fairy tale. Moreover, even if she believed, there was still no direct connection to whether or not she would be moved. Perhaps, it would even create an opposite reaction. Not everyone is able to get used to someone else forcibly occupying their life, and moreover, Wan Wan perhaps would even think that the person he liked was the one in his memories, and had nothing to do with her. After all, she didn’t know anything at all.

It was true that Wan Wan was optimistic by nature, but when facing the feelings between man and woman, it was possible for anyone to be stubborn. When time comes, the one to suffer will still just be him. In any case, he once said, regardless whether she knew or not, obtaining her heart all still needed to be handled step by step, using his actions to tell her, he loved her, and from beginning to end, it was all her, this person. Afterwards, at an appropriate time, tell her everything of her past. That way, it’ll naturally be ‘when the conditions are right, success will follow naturally’, letting Wan Wan press further into his heart.

On Jing Wan, he ultimately kept one rule in mind: ‘No matter how much one said, it all can’t compare to doing.’

“Forget it, in the future, you’ll eventually understand.” Li Hong Yuan lightly rubbed the back of her neck and kissed her forehead again.

Jing Wan sensed his powerlessness from defeat, as if she let down his deep feelings. If there was no relations between them, Jing Wan perhaps wouldn’t care, but they were fiancees, and not long after, will become the most intimate people, rising together in honor, and falling together in loss. That’s why, this made her somewhat helpless.

Right now, she was somewhat unable to distinguish, his view towards her, was it ‘extreme pampering’? As a substitute? Or shift in affections? Or perhaps……….true love? Regardless how mature Jing Wan’s temperament was, regardless how rational she was when encountering matters, and further regardless of how many mental constructions she’s done, it still can’t change the fact that on the matter of romantic love, she was completely blank. And she further wasn’t good at handling this kind of thing.

Li Hong Yuan looked to that little appearance of hers, his mood actually improving quite a bit. This girl was actually just a softhearted one, amendable to coaxing but not coercion, valuing feelings and righteousness, never accepting other people’s goodwill for no reason. If she accepts it, she will always think of every way to repay it. This way was also good. Although the barriers in her heart were a bit strong, difficult to overcome, but it didn’t mean that it can’t be overcome. Because their relationship was special, he can let her be forced to accept his good. Giving and taking, back and forth, winning her heart was something that’ll happen sooner or later.

“Don’t think too much, just do what you think should be done, and just follow your heart.”

Just follow her heart? In front of a beauty, Jing Wan expressed, she wanted to pounce. Thus, she unhesitantly hooked Li Hong Yuan’s neck, ruthlessly kissing him. And before Li Hong Yuan could return the favor, she struggled free from his hands and ran.

Li Hong Yuan rubbed his own lips, “This is Wan Wan trying to comfort me?” He suddenly smiled.

Comfort? Of course not. Jing Wan expressed she was just tempted by the beauty, that’s all.

Afterwards, Gong mama entered, handing Li Hong Yuan a cup of warm water. “Miss said, every morning after getting up, drinking a cup of warm water is beneficial for the body.”

Li Hong Yuan lifted his brow, but still took it and drank it in one gulp.

Afterwards, Gong mama quickly helped him bind his hair. This kind of ‘extremely high level’ task, Jing Wan still didn’t know how to do.

Once everything was taken care of appropriately, Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly went out.

Just, Gong mama, who was left in the room to take care of the bed sheets, discovered some bloodstains. In her first reaction, her heart instantly sunk, could it be that miss……….Then, having second thoughts, that’s not right, last time, they’d messed around for that long, yet nothing happened, so there was no reason for miss to lose her purity, in that brief moment last night. This bloodstain also didn’t look like it either, completely not having other marks. Since it’s not, and miss also didn’t have any injuries on her, then most likely…………..She swiftly tidied up, no longer thinking of it.

Jing Wan was already doing her morning exercises. Although he’d long known that if there was nothing important, she would exercise everyday without falling behind, this was still Li Hong Yuan’s first time personally witnessing. That period of time they’d spent together in his past life wasn’t considered short, but due to the special circumstances, even if Wan Wan did morning exercises, it was still training for the sake of killing people. He suddenly had a kind of ‘the tranquility of time’ peaceful feeling.

Li Hong Yuan sat to the side watching. However, as he watched, this thoughts just deviated a bit. Such a flexible waist, at certain times, wouldn’t it be that anything can be possible? During their last intimate interaction, aside from the last step, they’d actually done just about everything. However, it was all very normal postures. Next time, perhaps can try something different?

Li Hong Yuan felt the tip of his tongue was a bit itchy, unconsciously sweeping over the inner cracks of his teeth.

The horizon was all about to light up, “Wangye, you should return.” Gong mama said.

Li Hong Yuan turned to glance at her, then stared at Jing Wan for a while, before finally getting up, walking towards Jing Wan.

“Wangye is leaving?”

“This is unwilling to part with this prince? Then, after this prince uses the morning meal, and meet your grandparents, then will leave.”

“Respectfully sending off wangye.” Towards a shameless one, as expected, can’t give the slightest hesitation, and further can’t urge to stay out of curtsey.

“Tsk.” She had a head full of sweat, with a stiff expression, her face clearly just missing the words ‘quickly get lost’. He reached and rubbed her face, leaning in closer and smiling enticingly, “Darling, wait for me at night.”

What Jing Wan replied Li Hong Yuan with was her deadpan face.

Li Hong Yuan’s mood was very good, cupping her face and kissing her, not the least bit disdaining, “To not reciprocate is against etiquette, this is the return gift for earlier.” Afterwards, he just walked off.

“Bastard.” Jing Wan softly cursed, then looking to her servant girls, each and every one all with their heads lowered, just missing a sign erected on their heads saying: ‘This servant didn’t see anything.’ Gong mama watched his departing figure. Her sign was probably: ‘Out of sight, out of mind.’

Her reputation, her image, all ruined by that bastard!

When Li Hong Yuan returned to his residence, as the personal attendant, Eunuch Mu had long prepared the water for the bath. Just, master seemingly returned much later than anticipated, very different from the previous times.

Li Hong Yuan left him to serve, so Eunuch Mu naturally saw the injury on his shoulder and inhaled a cold breath. Just, he immediately met with Li Hong Yuan’s eye daggers. Eunuch Mu trembled, immediately holding his breath and lowering his head.
