Chu Huanjun lowered his eyelashes, his gaze gentle as water. Tao Yao, gazing at his tender eyes, was unconsciously captivated. She looked at him, at his beautiful eyebrows, his beautiful eyes. The red mole at the end of his eyebrow was as alluring as a red plum blossom, blooming alone in the snowy night, blossoming in her heart.

Tao Yao felt as if something surged within her like a tidal wave. Her fingertips felt cold, and she immediately reached for Chu Huanjun's warmth. She eagerly hugged him, gently stroking the hilly ridges on his back.

She kissed him, just like she had that night, except this time she didn't have all those chaotic emotions. She just wanted to have him, just for a little while.

Chu Huanjun didn't expect Tao Yao to be so proactive. After kissing her for a while, he pulled away and gave her a last kiss on her earlobe.

Tao Yao shuddered as she heard Chu Huanjun whisper in her ear, "This won't do. What does this mean? What kind of relationship do we have?"

She hadn't admitted anything yet, didn't admit that she liked him, didn't promise him that he would be the only one in her eyes from now on.

Chu Huanjun only wants a certain love, not an elusive one.

Tao Yao is the first person he has ever met in his life who is hard to understand. Sometimes she is clear and bright, and sometimes she is very entangled and complicated.

Chu Huanjun was always like this. He wouldn't invest in a deal he wasn't sure of. He was afraid that his love for Tao Yao would be wasted, that she wouldn't care about anything, that she would just walk away.

Tao Yao, however, was relentless and wrapped her arms around Chu Huanjun's back again. She exerted force with her hands, pressing him into her arms and whispering, "What is the relationship between us? Isn't it up to you, Your Highness, to decide?"

Chu Huanjun smiled and shook his head, his eyes softening, like an untamed beast that had suddenly become docile. He said softly, "I'll listen to you."

Tao Yao also laughed: "It's nothing. Your poison hasn't been cured yet, and I'm just helping you to cure it. Isn't that good? - If you put it that way, then I can barely be considered your savior."

"Okay." Chu Huanjun sighed, then lowered his head and kissed Tao Yao on the forehead. "Let's talk about the terms first. You saved me, so I should repay you. What do you want?"

Tao Yao thought about it, and then replied, "I want you to sit on the throne and grant amnesty to the world."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tao Yao felt Chu Huanjun's arm, resting on her waist, stiffen. She raised her hand, touched the crimson mole at the end of his eyebrow, and said, "Sitting the throne—that must have been your ambition. As for granting amnesty...that's my wish."

"What's your wish?" Chu Huanjun looked at Tao Yao's eyes in confusion, wanting to know what she was thinking. "How come your wish has nothing to do with you? ... Or maybe you could talk about something else, like gold, silver, jewelry, a house, a pawnshop, or something like that. Oh, and as I said before, I'll give you that Fuxiangzhai shop. You can go back and be its owner anytime."

Tao Yao said seriously, word by word, "How can it have nothing to do with me? The whole world belongs to the king. If you become the emperor in the future, and you beat or kill anyone who doesn't please you, ordinary people like us will definitely have a hard time."

Chu Huanjun raised an eyebrow and replied nonchalantly, "You don't need to worry about that. Even today, don't you understand? I can never treat you the same way I would treat ordinary people."

Tao Yao suddenly laughed and said, "You were the one who just said you wanted to repay me and asked me what I wanted. No matter what you think, this is what I want. I won't change my mind, and you shouldn't bargain anymore. As a prince, you should know better than to make a deal without sincerity."

Chu Huanjun was speechless for a moment. Tao Yao's eyes sparkled, and she suddenly grabbed something shiny and white and shook it in front of him.

Chu Huanjun looked closely and saw that it was the white jade porcelain box that had fallen into her hands at some point.

He was about to reach out to grab it, but Tao Yao got there first and pressed the white jade porcelain box under her. She smiled slyly and said, "This thing is very important to you. What is it?"

Chu Huanjun smiled and pulled up a corner of the robe covering Tao Yao. Tao Yao was caught off guard and dodged into the robe. Suddenly, she heard Chu Huanjun's voice coming from the side: "This thing is not that important. I have more important things to take care of now."

Tao Yao immediately understood what he meant and quickly hugged her naked body. Suddenly, Tao Yao felt a gust of cold wind on her back, and her robe was pulled away by Chu Huanjun.

Before she could react, Tao Yao suddenly felt dizzy and her body spun several times in Chu Huanjun's arms. The huge robe had wrapped her body up without her realizing it.

Tao Yao was instantly entangled in the robe like a silkworm cocoon, and was held in Chu Huanjun's hand. Tao Yao looked down and saw that the white jade porcelain box was already in Chu Huanjun's other hand.

She was too careless. Chu Huanjun was an old fox. How dare she show off her tricks in front of him?

Tao Yao said anxiously, "Chu Huanjun, your poison has worn off long ago. You are playing tricks on me."

Chu Huanjun snorted softly, ripped off his belt, and tightly wrapped the "silkworm chrysalis" around Taoyao several times like tying a rice dumpling. Then, he proudly carried her on his shoulders and pretended to leave: "If I can get what I want with a little trickery, why not? - I'm going to capture you and bring you back to my house."

Tao Yao hurriedly bit his shoulder hard, struggling and refusing, "I won't go back!"

"You said you don't want to go back, so why not? I insist on you going back with me, no matter whether you agree or not." Chu Huanjun also rejected her.

"Chu Huanjun, a forced melon is not sweet. If you force me like this, you won't get what you want."

As soon as Tao Yao said this, Chu Huanjun stopped what he was doing, stood there for a moment, and finally put Tao Yao down from his shoulders.

As soon as Tao Yao landed on the ground, Chu Huanjun turned around and was about to leave. Tao Yao quickly grabbed his hand and asked, "You haven't agreed to my request just now."

Chu Huanjun turned around, sneered twice, and replied unhappily: "I just asked you to make a request, and I didn't promise that you must fulfill it."

Tao Yao casually grabbed a handful of mud and sand from the ground and threw it at Chu Huanjun, saying angrily, "You're cheating."

"I'm playing dirty, and I'm shameless."

Chu Huanjun smiled wryly and grabbed a corner of Tao Yao's robe. Suddenly, a large area of ​​her snow-white neck was exposed to the air. Because of shyness and anger, her collarbone and shoulders were slightly flushed.

She will be his sooner or later, Chu Huanjun thought.

But the words suddenly changed in tone as they came out of his mouth. Chu Huanjun looked at Tao Yao coldly and said mercilessly: "Give me back my clothes."
