Chapter 937: Chapter 623 The Truth Laid Bare, Feeling Sorry for My Daughter-in-law_2

The more he thought about it, the stronger his desire to possess her became.

Later, he felt more than once that his initial thoughts had been correct.

Immediately after, Xiao Jinyan added, "After regaining my memory, I realized that I had already harbored such feelings for you when I was in Nanzhao Country."

Feng Wuyou wanted to pinch his face, but found that both her hands were captured by him and held above her head. She pouted, "You matured early."

Xiao Jinyan didn’t think there was anything improper about his feelings; unfortunately, he just lacked the capability at that time.

"It’s quite common to get married at sixteen. Why can’t I harbor feelings for you?"

Feng Wuyou had no comeback; indeed, it was common for marriages to happen at sixteen in ancient times, and it was normal for thirteen- or fourteen-year-olds to have maidservants.

"You treated me so well because you had such feelings?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Not entirely. It’s because you were too kind. When I was in Nanzhao Country, I was all alone and you were the only one who was kind to me."

Feng Wuyou recalled her childhood when she first encountered Xiao Jinyan. She was only five years old and saw princes bullying him; she saved him on a whim.

Her father was the National Master, and the Emperor had conferred upon her the title of Princess, with the honorific of Jiuyou, which made her status a bit more noble than that of the princes and princesses in the palace.

So, when she spoke, they dared not disobey.

At that time, Xiao Jinyan was only ten, thin and frail, with a pale complexion.

Back then, she didn’t understand what a hostage meant, assuming he was an orphan, all alone in the world.

Although she didn’t have a mother, she had a father; when others boasted about their mothers, she could boast about her father.

But Xiao Jinyan had none, which was why she felt the urge to comfort him.

"We are childhood sweethearts."

Xiao Jinyan neither agreed nor disagreed.

"Let’s relive it once more."

Feng Wuyou thought to herself that they were already an old married couple, yet reliving old times... but Xiao Jinyan didn’t give her a chance to speak.

The harmony and passion of their marital life were evident in the fervor of their lovemaking.

In the Guest Room

Feng Qingyan bowed her head and rolled up her sleeves, staring at the guardian sand on her arm for a long time.

Could it really have been applied later?

Who would have done it?

Could it be her mother-in-law?

Just as Feng Qingyan was puzzled, a knock came at the door.

She turned her head towards the tightly closed door. Who could be knocking at this hour?

With curiosity, Feng Qingyan stood and went to open the door, seeing Jun Moqing at the entrance. Under the moonlight, his blue and white robe appeared like a cold frost, making him look exceptionally ethereal.

"Is there something you need?"

Jun Moqing said, "I wanted to talk with you."

Feng Qingyan, also unable to sleep, stepped aside to let him in, "Then come in."

Jun Moqing lifted his long legs and entered. The layout of the Guest Room was generally the same, and after a glance around the room, he sat down at the table.

After closing the door, Feng Qingyan also took a seat across from him and poured him a cup of tea.

Jun Moqing glanced at the tea but didn’t drink it. Instead, he fixed his gaze on her, "Tonight, I want to stay."

Without thinking, Feng Qingyan bluntly refused, "No."

Jun Moqing asked, "Why not?"

Feng Qingyan said, "You’re feigning ignorance, aren’t you? Men and women should not touch hands when giving or receiving objects. Before confirming our identities, you must not cross the line."

Jun Moqing knew she had misunderstood, "I just don’t want to stay outside."

Feng Qingyan, guessing what he meant but still uncertain, asked again, "What do you mean?"

"To guard inside the room."

"That’s not allowed either."

"Yet you slept in my arms last night."

"..."

Last night, Feng Qingyan didn’t know how she had fallen asleep, but she woke up in Jun Moqing’s arms.

Even though it was winter, it wasn’t cold at all in his embrace, indicating that he had been channeling his internal energy to her all night.

How profound must one’s internal energy be to continuously transfer it to someone else for an entire night?

Jun Moqing called out, "Fengfeng."

This was the first time Jun Moqing had addressed her as Fengfeng. Feng Qingyan froze for a moment, then responded with some distress, "I’m quite perplexed right now."

Jun Moqing comforted, "The truth will be revealed one day; there’s no need to be so troubled."

"Easy for you to say." Feng Qingyan sighed, staring at Jun Moqing’s handsome face, finding it increasingly peerless the more she looked.

Twenty years ago, had she seen a man of such beauty, she would surely have been enraptured beyond words.

Despite his aloof and indifferent demeanor, he gave her a sense of gentleness, a straightforward nature, yet he was considerate.

Jun Moqing asked, "Aren’t you going to rest?"

Feng Qingyan realized that ever since Jun Moqing had arrived, the previously wakeful her had started to feel sleepy.
