Standing on the side, Ruo Qiu watched the sorrowful expression on Xiao Liuli's face. He simply walked over to Xiao Liuli and patted his shoulder before turning around and walking forward.
Forgive his selfishness.
Like Xiao Taohua, he didn't want anyone else to enter their lives too soon.
He didn't want to share the affection he had painstakingly obtained with anyone else.
Even this person before him, who had been his playmate since childhood.
Now, Ruo Qiu could compromise on everything, except for Xiao Liuli's presence.
If Lin Zaozao was no longer in this world, then Ruo Qiu would become a solitary person once again.
Living alone is truly bitter and difficult.
In Lin Zaozao's bedroom, she sat on the bed, holding Xiao Taohua tightly around his waist.
"Xiao Taohua, how about resting with me for a while?"
"I am more than willing to accompany my wife," Xiao Taohua replied.
With Lin Zaozao's hand tucked inside his clothes, Xiao Taohua gently placed it against his chest and looked at the blindfold covering her eyes, smiling lightly.
"Xiao Taohua, it's quite uncomfortable to sleep with my eyes covered."
Lying on the bed, Lin Zaozao rubbed the blindfold against her eyes, feeling annoyed.
"If it's uncomfortable, then why don't you take it off?" Xiao Taohua suggested.
"I can't! Xiao Taohua, you look so good. I'm afraid that as soon as I see you, I'll start flirting and drooling over you.
If it was just flirting, it would be fine, but when I start drooling, I feel like a complete idiot.
Those strands of drool could easily drown my clothes."
"Hahaha..."
Listening to Lin Zaozao's extremely frustrated voice, Xiao Taohua laughed without reservation.
He turned to look at Lin Zaozao lying in his arms, her restless hands still mischievous. His eyes shimmered as he leaned close to her ear, a hint of seduction in his voice.
"My Zaozao, can you really fall asleep lying in my arms?"
"I can't sleep!" Lin Zaozao felt a faint heat near her ear, causing a tingling sensation in her body.
Xiao Taohua is really good at teasing her!
If Xiao Taohua can tease her like this, then there's no point in being reserved!
"Zaozao, if you can't sleep, should we do something interesting?
Like the fairy fights you often talk about, hmm~"
Feeling Xiao Taohua's hand inside her clothes, Lin Zaozao suddenly grabbed his hand and straddled his body.
"Xiao Taohua, my eyes are covered, I can't see your expression. It feels a bit of a waste to enter the bridal chamber like this, in complete darkness."
"It's not a waste. Zaozao, as long as we stay together, we can enter the bridal chamber every day.
If you want to play out any fairy fight positions, I'm more than willing to accompany you, okay?"
Hearing Xiao Taohua's slightly husky voice, along with the slight upward inflection at the end of his sentences, it felt like an invisible hook scratching at her heart, liver, and lungs.
As she felt his hands slowly exploring her body, sliding down gradually...
Wherever his large hands touched, all the desire within Lin Zaozao's body was stirred up by him.
Taking a quick gasp of breath, Lin Zaozao leaned forward and pressed down on Xiao Taohua's body.
Running her hands along the collar of his clothes, Lin Zaozao forcefully pulled, and the sound of fabric tearing echoed through the quiet chamber.
Discarding the cloth in her hands, Lin Zaozao's hands slid down, searching for the place she longed for.
As her hands met warm skin, Lin Zaozao could clearly hear Xiao Taohua's heavy breathing.
Though Xiao Taohua's breath was somewhat rough, she couldn't tell if it was his natural disposition or intentional.
To Lin Zaozao's ears, Xiao Taohua's breathing sounded like a potent aphrodisiac.
As she listened, her entire body's blood began to boil.
With her eyes blindfolded, she couldn't see Xiao Taohua's expression. However, just by listening to his voice, Lin Zaozao felt that Xiao Taohua was a naturally captivating being.
Someone specifically designed to captivate her heart and soul!
Unable to resist the allure of Xiao Taohua's voice any longer, Lin Zaozao accurately kissed his lips in the darkness.
The atmosphere had reached this point, and if she didn't continue, she would be a fool.
"What the hell! I kissed too forcefully and accidentally bumped my front tooth."
"Zaozao, focus and kiss me properly."
As their lips met, Lin Zaozao abruptly raised her head and asked, "Xiao Taohua, we haven't bathed or brushed our teeth. Should we... tidy up before continuing?"
"Shut up! It's just entering the bridal chamber, let's make do for now. Why bother with tidying up?" Xiao Taohua gritted his teeth.
"Well, let's make do then. After all, you only have about three seconds in total," Lin Zaozao remarked sarcastically.
Hearing Lin Zaozao's snide comment, Xiao Taohua's teeth were ground to pieces.
How could Lin Zaozao ruin his mood like this during their bridal chamber! He would show her how long it would take him to enter the bridal chamber.
And who would be the one unable to endure and faint first.
Amidst their heavy breathing, waves of passion surged, conveying unspoken tenderness!
...
Listening to the even sound of breathing beside her, Lin Zaozao removed the obstructive blindfold. Uncontrollably, she flirted with her eyes and drooled while looking at the sleeping Xiao Taohua, inwardly making sarcastic remarks.
Just now, Xiao Taohua seemed quite arrogant.
But the reality was, although he wasn't a three-second man, he wasn't that great either.
How long had it been!
How did this delicate little peach blossom suddenly become unable to stand up!
Lin Zaozao wiped her mouth on Xiao Taohua's inner garment and reached out to touch his chest.
It was a pity that she couldn't see Xiao Taohua's face because of the blindfold.
This aspect was quite regrettable, indeed.
After all, just now, that guy Xiao Taohua had a pretty nice voice.
Glancing at the disheveled marks on both of them, Lin Zaozao quickly wiped her mouth, put on her outer garment, and lifted Xiao Taohua in her arms, heading towards the bathing pool behind the sleeping quarters.
Ah! She was really unlucky.
After the newlyweds entered the bridal chamber, it is usually the man who carries the woman to wash up. But in this case, it was Xiao Taohua who carried her husband, Lin Zaozao, to clean up.
Well, there are benefits to helping someone bathe!
At the very least, she could fully appreciate Xiao Taohua's delicate figure, which lacked nothing in her eyes.
Look at that slender waist, those abdominal muscles, and those long legs.
Hehehe!
There's definitely something worth seeing!
Once Lin Zaozao finished bathing Xiao Taohua, she had drool running down as if it were a bath. Her flirtatious eyes were almost twitching by this point.
When Lin Zaozao placed Xiao Taohua back on the bed, she immediately put on an eye mask for herself.
She had to wear it! Her eyes and mouth couldn't handle it anymore! They were almost twitching from blinking so much.
Feeling that her eyes and mouth were finally back to normal, Lin Zaozao, like a koala bear, used both her hands and feet to cling to Xiao Taohua's body.
It was quite comfortable to hold such a large human-shaped pillow.
Once Lin Zaozao fell asleep, Xiao Taohua, who had pretended to be asleep, quietly opened his eyes. He almost couldn't hold it together in the bath just now.
As a grown man, he was scolded by a young girl while her hands didn't stop touching him from head to toe.
If it weren't for fear of embarrassment, he really wanted to open his eyes and tell Zaozao who really couldn't handle it.
Unfortunately, he was truly exhausted.
Regaining her composure, Xiao Taohua leaned over and lightly kissed Lin Zaozao's lips.
Lin Zaozao, still with her eyes closed, asked cautiously, "Zaozao, are you awake?"
In response, all she heard was Lin Zaozao's steady breathing.
"You mischievous girl, even while asleep, you remember to take advantage."
After hugging Lin Zaozao again, Xiao Taohua fell asleep contentedly.
When Lin Zaozao woke up, it was already dark outside. Realizing that there was something to attend to soon, she could only get up from the bed.
As Lin Zaozao looked at the empty bed, she didn't know when Xiao Taohua had left.
What a shame. If Xiao Taohua hadn't left, they could have continued being intimate for a while longer!
After Lin Zaozao finished tidying up and walked to the door, she saw Uncle Zhang, who looked dusty, coming toward her.
"Uncle Zhang!"
"You're up, girl."
Meeting Uncle Zhang's teasing gaze, Lin Zaozao responded with an unaffected smile, then nodded solemnly.
"Girl, this is something that the High Priest Han Ye asked me to deliver to you. He said it's for temporary use."
Taking what Uncle Zhang handed over, which looked like a pair of glasses, Lin Zaozao curiously put them on.
In the next second, Uncle Zhang's handsome face twisted into a grotesque expression.
Oh my goodness! Once she put this thing on, even if a celestial beauty were standing in front of her, it would turn into an ugly monster.
But after tomorrow, she wouldn't have to wear this cursed thing anymore. Once the three-day punishment period given by the system was over, she would make her handsome husbands wash away the defilement from her eyes.
"Uncle Zhang, I feel a bit embarrassed this morning! I played the role of a deserter. It's just that the stench was too overwhelming, and I couldn't bear it anymore."
"It's alright, my girl. You managed to single-handedly defeat the hundred thousand troops of Canglan and Fengshuo, leaving them defenseless. That's already a miracle."
By the way, my girl, Han Xibei, the national teacher, has been spreading the news of your extraordinary feats on the battlefield in Canglan and Fengshuo.
The news of Princess Mingzhu, the newly appointed Empress of Han Country, being a true blessing from heaven, has already reached the common people.
My girl, the national teacher has created such a huge momentum for you among the people, building up your excellent reputation. This has prepared you fully for the future reconquest of Canglan and Fengshuo!"
As Lin Zaozao listened to Uncle Zhang's excited voice, her brows involuntarily furrowed.
"Uncle Zhang, Xiaoxi Jing is the national teacher of Canglan and Fengshuo. Now that he is spreading news about me, won't the Empresses of Canglan and Fengshuo seek revenge on him?"
"My girl, the Empresses of Canglan and Fengshuo do want to harm the national teacher. Unfortunately, they dare not. As for the reasons, the High Priest and the national teacher have not disclosed them to me, so I'm not sure either.
All I know is that no matter how the national teacher causes trouble or defends you, the Empresses of Canglan and Fengshuo, they dare not harm the national teacher.
If someone were to die between them, the one who dies will definitely not be the national teacher.
At the same time, the national teacher also cannot harm the Empresses of Canglan and Fengshuo. As for the reasons, I'm not sure either. Even if I ask Lord Han Ye, he won't tell me."
Listening to Uncle Zhang's explanation, Lin Zaozao also understood that the entanglement between the national teacher and the Empresses of Canglan and Fengshuo was deliberately concealed by Han Ye and Xiaoxi Jing.
They didn't want to talk about it, so even if she asks, it would be in vain.
Now, it seems like she's being pushed forward step by step by an invisible giant hand.
Where will she ultimately end up? Whether the outcome is good or bad, she doesn't know.
She's completely at sea about the future.
In short, she's just living her days as they come.
Sigh! Being the Empress of Han Country is really troublesome!
She really wants to go back to the village of Luoshui and be that ignorant village woman, Lin Zaozao!
