Silent silence.

Situ Yan closed his eyes. Such silence made him feel a little nervous and uneasy.

Was he too anxious? Or was he wrong and she didn't have this idea?

All these thoughts were like tiny wheat thorns, pricking his heart, making him nervous, expectant, and afraid. He was so anxious that he could only hold the person in his arms tightly, fearing that he would lose him again by accident.

A long time passed, or maybe it wasn't that long at all, but Situ Yan was too nervous, so he thought he had been waiting for eternity.

The first parts of his body to regain sensation were his fingers, not actively but passively.

Because someone hooked his knuckles.

Xie Yuantang slowly but without hesitation held his hand, blushing slightly, and said softly: "It's... not that I don't understand."

Situ Yan felt like he came back to life in an instant.

He held Xie Yuantang's shoulders and asked her to turn around. He stared at her with his peach blossom eyes without blinking: "Do you really understand? You really know that I like you. It's not like what we had before. It's the love between a man and a woman. I want to be a real husband and wife with you. I want to walk with you forever and grow old together. It's more than just love. I love you."

Xie Yuantang looked into his eyes, those peach blossom eyes that had always been focused on her, and had always only been focused on her. At this moment, they were so focused and affectionate, and they still only reflected her figure.

She curled her lips upwards and smiled, her dimples seeking sweetness, she slowly stood on tiptoe, leaned over and kissed his eyes: "I like my husband, too."

Situ Yan's ears turned red instantly.

As if the string in his heart had finally loosened, he lowered his head, rested his forehead against Xie Yuantang's, and sighed, "I thought you didn't know."

"Well……"

Xie Yuantang chuckled: "I also thought you didn't know."

Situ Yan: “…”

They both wanted to give each other time and take things slow, but little did they know that the seeds of affection had already sprouted.

Situ Yan stretched out his hand, and gently stroked the lips that Xie Yuantang had just kissed with his fingertips, and said in a hoarse voice: "I heard that when other people are engaged, they have to kiss here to make it count."

Xie Yuantang was slightly startled, avoiding his gaze uncomfortably, and muttered softly: "Well... I didn't stop you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure in front of him pressed down, and a light but precious kiss fell on his lips.

Situ Yan kissed her once, then moved away a little bit, as if recalling something, and then kissed her again...

Xie Yuantang was a little confused by his kiss: "What are you doing?"

Situ Yan said seriously: "Study."

Xie Yuantang: “…”

She wanted to laugh a little, but more of it was an impulse.

She reached out and boldly grabbed Situ Yan's collar, pulled him close to her, and whispered, "Which one do you want to learn, husband? I'll teach you."

Even if you have never eaten pork, you have seen a pig run. Da Lao Tang definitely has more theoretical knowledge than Situ Yan.

Situ Yan's peach blossom eyes were slightly flushed with watery light, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "My lady, how are you going to teach me?"

Xie Yuantang didn't say anything, just moved closer to him and then gently bit his lower lip.

Situ Yan's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and the big hand that was around Xie Yuantang's waist suddenly exerted force.

Xie Yuantang chuckled, and this time, he tentatively stuck out the tip of his tongue...

The two of them were getting closer and closer...

Then... there was a knock on the door, and Snake Eyes' voice came from outside.

Situ Yan: “…”

Xie Yuantang coughed lightly and decisively pushed him away, then wrung out the towel and handed it to him: "Wipe it yourself."

Situ Yan glanced at her red lips depressedly, his peach blossom eyes showing no sign of concealing his desire and regret.

Xie Yuantang blushed, glared at him and went to open the door.

Outside the door, Shetong knelt down as soon as he saw someone. This was the life-saving method Bai Fu taught him.

Situ Yan was about to kick someone but he retracted his foot and made a sound of "tsk".

Xie Yuantang asked: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Snake pupil nodded: "I want to change my name."

The name Snake Eyes was strange to begin with, so Xie Yuantang was not surprised. She just didn't understand why he came to ask her, "Then change it. No need to ask for my opinion. If you don't want to be called Snake Eyes, what do you want to be called?"

Shetong raised her head and looked straight at Xie Yuantang: "I want to call you Xie Tong."

Xie Yuantang: “…Ah?”

Situ Yan frowned: "I don't have a son as old as you."

Snake pupil looked at him puzzledly: "I changed my last name to Xie but not to Situ, why am I your son?"

Situ Yan snorted coldly: "My son's last name is Xie!"

Snake pupil: "..."

Xie Yuantang was a little amused, patted Situ Yan's arm to tell him to stop making trouble, and then said to She Tong: "Xie Tong? Not bad."

This was considered as approval of his surrender and permission for him to follow her wishes.

Snake pupils…Oh no, Xie Tong’s eyes lit up, and he kowtowed to Xie Yuantang and said, “Thank you, I will work hard and will not embarrass you!”

Xie Yuantang smiled and asked him to get up: "That's not necessary, you can live whatever life you want, you don't have to work hard for me."

Xie Tong nodded, but decided in her heart that she would follow Xie Yuantang for the rest of her life, go through life and death for her, and hold the horse and sweep the dust for her.

With Situ Yan's sign there, the Fifth Prince's Mansion was peaceful for two days.

On this day, Xie Yuantang was going to the palace to help Situ Ran start the second course of treatment, and Situ Yan followed him into the palace reluctantly.

After his leg was treated, as expected, Xie Yuantang was dragged away by Concubine Li and Concubine Xian.

Situ Yan clicked his tongue. Although he was still a little dissatisfied, he did not make a fuss and insisted on leaving.

Situ Ran looked at him in surprise and said with a smile, "Why aren't you making trouble today?"

Situ Yan raised his eyebrows: "Second brother, don't slander me. My wife can do whatever she wants. When have I ever made a fuss?"

He actually called her "wife" again!

Situ Ran's eyes flashed, and Situ Xu beside him spat out half a mouthful of tea. The two of them stared at him in unison: "Is Xie Yuantang willing to give you a status?"

Situ Yan straightened his back proudly and snorted, "I already have a status!"

"Yo ho!"

Situ Ran was happy: "It seems that the clouds have finally cleared and the moon is shining."

Situ Xu asked tentatively: "Then can we go to the Fifth Prince's Mansion in the future?"

Situ Yan immediately frowned and glared at the two of them warningly: "Don't go there every day, it's very annoying!"

Situ Ran and Situ Xu laughed out loud.

When Situ Qing came in, he heard the two people laughing and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

Situ Ran said: "Father, please talk to my fifth brother. He is so stingy even though he is almost a famous man!"

Situ Qing looked at his fifth son in surprise: "How did you get it? Maybe Xie Yuantang was just kidding you and you didn't understand and took it seriously?"

Situ Yan: “…”

Not wanting to bother with these people, he turned around and was about to leave when he heard Situ Qing say, "Don't leave so quickly. I have something to talk to you about."

Qu Pei stepped back and closed the door. Situ Qing sat down, looked at his three sons and asked, "I am planning to step down. Who of you wants to sit on this throne?"

Situ Xu and Situ Ran looked at Situ Yan at the same time.
