Chapter 128 Responsible
On the branches under the moon, Dr. Feng and others had fallen asleep, and the medicine hall was silent.
Yu Zheng had just changed a basin of water and entered the house, ready to continue giving Jiang Shu a cold compress.
However, as soon as the cold handkerchief was placed on Jiang Shu's forehead, she immediately shivered, shrank down and murmured: "Cold, so cold..."
Yu Zheng touched her neck and found that it was still frighteningly hot, but Jiang Shu kept shouting that it was cold.
Yu Zheng understood that she was not really cold, but had a fever problem.
He fed her half a glass of water, then took off his coat and went to bed to hold her, using his body temperature to keep her warm.
The man's body was so warm and hot that Jiang Shu seemed to have found a life-saving straw and kept digging into Yu Zheng's arms.
"Hiss!" Yu Zheng was scalded by Jiang Shu's hot body temperature and felt as if his skin was on fire.
Jiang Shu felt extremely comfortable, and curled up into Yu Zheng's arms. His hands restlessly pulled open Yu Zheng's clothes, and pressed his face against Yu Zheng's tight chest, trying to absorb more warmth.
"Well -" Yu Zheng groaned as he was burned, feeling unbearable joy in his heart.
Looking down at the person in his arms with dark eyes, Yu Zheng pulled the quilt and tucked her in, wrapping his arms around her but not daring to fall asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, when Yu Zheng felt that his hot blood was boiling, Jiang Shu finally subsided.
After repeatedly confirming that it was correct, Yu Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief and wanted to hold her to sleep.
"Well, it's hot." Jiang Shu mumbled and pushed away, turning his back to Yu Zheng.
Heartless little thing.
Yu Zheng was very angry.
Although there is only one bed in the house, it is much larger than the one in Huzi's house, enough for two people to lie flat on their backs.
After Yu Zheng calmed down, he pulled the quilt over him and closed his eyes tiredly.
The next morning, when bright light shone into the house through the window, Jiang Shu woke up.
Thick long eyelashes quivered slightly, and apricot eyes slowly opened.
Yu Zheng's sleeping Juan face suddenly bumped into Jiang Shu's eyes, making her heart tremble.
Did they sleep in the same bed again last night?
Looking at Jun's face so close, Jiang Shu's heart beat loudly, and her eyes wandered greedily from top to bottom, finally falling on the honey-colored lips.
Jiang Shu's face felt hot and he wanted to lift the quilt and quietly stood up.
The alert Yu Zheng's dark eyes suddenly opened, startling Jiang Shu.
"I woke you up, I'm sorry..." Jiang Shu said and stood up, letting Yu Zheng go back to sleep.
Yu Zheng stretched out his long arms to pull her into his arms and placed a kiss on her smooth forehead.
Jiang Shu was instantly petrified, and his mind was so stunned that he could no longer move.
Why did Yu Zheng suddenly become so... frivolous?
Jiang Shu, whose head was burned to a pulp last night, had no memory of what happened.
So when she faced Yu Zheng's behavior today, she was filled with shock.
"My lord, my lord, are you...possessed?"
Yu Zheng choked when he heard this, and immediately laughed and said: "Well, I fell into your trap."
"Ah?" Jiang Shu didn't know why.
Yu Zheng was a little annoyed: "Have you forgotten what happened last night?"
They have become so intimate that it's time for this layer of paper to be broken, and she can no longer be allowed to escape.
"What happened last night?" Jiang Shu looked confused.
His slender fingers lifted her chin, and his dark eyes stared at her seductive lips. Yu Zheng leaned over and kissed her, turning and sucking lightly.
Apricot eyes widened in astonishment, and the warm and soft touch from his lips penetrated all his limbs and hit his heart, making Jiang Shu's mind go blank.
"Do you remember now?" Yu Zheng asked her, his voice low and hoarse.
Jiang Shu didn't dare to look at Yu Huan, his eyes flashed and he said, "I...what should I think of?"
She wasn't pretending to be stupid, she really didn't know.
Yu Zheng stared at her for a long time and saw that her face was confused, and she didn't look like she was lying at all, so he knew that she really didn't remember.
With a sigh of regret, Yu Zheng said in a warm voice: "You refused to drink the medicine last night, so I had to feed you myself. The medicine was really too bitter. In order to repay me, you invited me to eat sweets with you."
After Jiang Shu heard this, he felt like his mind was spinning.
What does it mean to feed her personally? What does eating candy together mean?
Yu Zheng kindly reminded: "Just like just now."
Jiang Shu's pretty face turned red when she heard this, and she pulled the quilt to cover her face, not daring to face Yu Zheng.
Although she had no impression, she knew that Yu Zheng would not lie to her, so what he said was true.
God, how will she see anyone in the future?
Jiang Shu huddled under the quilt, wishing he could suffocate himself to death.
"What? You don't want to take responsibility?" Yu Zheng pulled back the quilt and did not allow her to escape.
Jiang Shu's eyes dodge and his face is on fire: "How...how can I be responsible?"
Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said seriously: "How can a man and a woman be responsible when there is physical intimacy between men and women?"
Naturally, I pledged myself to him.
Jiang Shu was startled, bit his lip and said shyly: "I am of low status and have been married before, so I am not worthy of the prince."
Even though she has never been married, with her background, it is already a high level for her to become a concubine in the palace.
But she has her own pride and would rather not marry than become a concubine.
"You are a merchant, and you have indeed married. This is an unchangeable fact."
Having said this, Yu Zheng stretched out his hand to lift Jiang Shu's face, forcing her to look at him.
"Others may look down upon you for this, but you should not belittle yourself."
Jiang Shu was shocked after hearing this, and his bright apricot eyes were instantly filled with mist.
"What about you? What do you think of me?" Jiang Shu summoned up the courage to ask.
Yu Zhengjun's face was solemn and serious. He looked into her eyes and said word by word: "In my eyes, you are the best girl in the world. Everything you have experienced is just a test from God."
"Fate arranged for us to meet, but I failed to cherish and missed you. Fortunately, God gave me another chance."
"Jiang Shu, I am happy with you, are you willing to hold hands with me?"
Yu Zheng finished speaking in one breath and looked at her intently, waiting nervously and expectantly for her answer.
Such a straightforward statement shocked Jiang Shu.
Yu Zheng's words touched her deeply and made her happy, but she did not dare to agree to him.
There are too many obstacles between them. The gap between them is too far.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Shu asked with red eyes: "If I hold hands with you, how will you treat me?"
After asking this question, Jiang Shu's hands hidden in the quilt tightly grasped his clothes.
She wanted to give herself a reason to give up, but she was afraid that Yu Zheng's words would make her heartache.
"Of course she is the royal concubine." Yu Zheng looked solemn and spoke solemnly.
He knew what she was thinking and answered decisively to reassure her.
Jiang Shu was stunned after hearing this. He didn't expect Yu Zheng to answer this.
"Your Majesty, does he know what this means?" Jiang Shu's voice trembled.
"It means that I am very happy with you, and I would not marry you unless you were the one." Yu Zheng answered patiently, letting her understand what he meant.
Jiang Shu's long eyelashes flashed and tears rolled down her cheeks: "The prince has a distinguished status and marries a merchant's daughter as his concubine. The Holy Concubine and even the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty will not agree."
After saying this, Jiang Shu couldn't help but feel sad.
Yu Zheng was so good that she didn't even dare to think about it.
"This is my obstacle, I will solve it, you don't have to worry. Just tell me, are you willing to marry me?" Yu Zheng stared at her with burning eyes, waiting for her answer.
