Time Travel and Love

Chapter 29 Asking for Marriage

Some things will happen a second and third time after the first time. Of course, this is especially true for men who have started having sex. For several days in a row, Mo Liujin secretly avoided the secret guards and ran to Chu Qingmeng's room to spend the night. Except when Chu Qingmeng was drunk or sick, he almost never needed Chun and Xiazhi to keep watch over him. This made Mo Liujin lawless. Fortunately, Mo Liujin also knew how to restrain himself and basically would not leave any traces on Chu Qingmeng.

On the seventh day, just as Mo Liujin was about to lie down beside Chu Qingmeng to rest, he was unexpectedly kicked by Chu Qingmeng. Under the dim light, Chu Qingmeng's gnashing teeth but suppressed roar echoed in his ears, "Mo Liujin! Are you done? I've put up with you for six days! Can you please let me get some sleep?!"

"Pfft." Mo Liujin laughed out loud, intending to tease her, "Good Qingmeng, you provoked me first, and now you're telling me no?"

Chu Qingmeng only felt that his smile was so bewitching in the dim light. The smile in his eyes was as soft as the ripples of a clear spring, and the curve between his eyebrows was like a bright crescent moon. He was dazzled by his gaze. Seeing her looking at him like this, Mo Liujin patted her forehead and said with a smile, "Come back to your senses~~"

Chu Qingmeng rubbed his forehead, which had been slapped, and kept lamenting in his heart, "Beauty can lead to misfortune, beauty can lead to misfortune!" He looked at Mo Liujin pitifully and said, "Please let me rest for a night, I'm really tired."

"Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore. I'll just hold you and let you rest, okay?" What Mo Liujin couldn't stand the most was Chu Qingmeng's pitiful expression. He felt so distressed every time he saw it.

Mo Liujin turned off the night light and went to bed, lying next to Chu Qingmeng. He held her in his arms and said solemnly, "Qingmeng, will you marry me?"

Chu Qingmeng closed her eyes tightly and refused to answer. She just wanted him to think that she was asleep. But Mo Liujin was a martial artist, and he could distinguish her breathing. Seeing that she refused to answer for a long time, he sighed and hugged her tightly again. Now that they were husband and wife, he knew Chu Qingmeng's love for him, but why did she always avoid it every time this topic was brought up? As long as they didn't get married, his heart would not be at ease. He always felt that she would leave him. Mo Liujin gently sniffed her hair and asked, "Qingmeng, is there something I did wrong?"

The only answer he got was still the silence in the room. He sighed once more and fell asleep with her in his arms. But Chu Qingmeng, who hadn't opened her eyes, had a tear in her eye. There was no future between them. She didn't want to give him hope.

Two months later, it was time to return to Beijing. During this period, Mo Liujin asked Chu Qingmeng to marry him more than once. Every time, Chu Qingmeng changed the subject, but Mo Liujin persisted. He said that if she didn't answer, he would ask every day until she agreed.

Chu Qing, dressed warmly, boarded the carriage and found it wasn't cold. A charcoal basin was even lit. As she was examining it carefully, Mo Liujin said, "I've had Chunhe and the others seal the carriage with oil paper beforehand. Only one window is left open, and the charcoal basin is at the door. Just hold onto the hot water bottle. There are also many layers of mattresses in here, so you won't get caught in the cold and won't feel the bumps."

Chu Qingmeng smiled but didn't answer. She knew that he cared about her now, which was enough, but that wasn't enough reason for her to marry him. She had no family background, and he was a bastard, so he needed the woman's family background to pave the way for him. This left her with only the option of being a concubine. But she didn't want to compete with any other woman for a man, no matter how good he was. She just wanted to be with him happily until he found someone to marry, and then she could leave and return to the modern world to continue her slavery.

After the group carefully moved forward, they finally arrived in the capital. At this time, there were still seven days before Mo Liufang's wedding. In the main hall of the palace, Mo Liujin and Chu Qingmeng greeted the elders and then started chatting. However, seeing that Chu Qingmeng kept covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, Concubine Liu glared at Chu Qingmeng with dissatisfaction. Chu Qingmeng was puzzled. Had she offended Concubine Liu? And the prince and princess didn't say anything? If she couldn't figure it out, she would just ignore it. This was Chu Qingmeng's usual style of doing things. She lowered her eyes without thinking too much, showing a tired look on her face. Seeing the fatigue on her face, the princess knew that she was exhausted, and hurriedly said with concern, "Qingmeng, go back and rest. You must have been tired after this bumpy journey. The prince has called the imperial physician. You should go back to your room and rest. When the imperial physician comes, let him take a look at you. I see that your injury is still not healed."

Chu Qingmeng took the opportunity to say goodbye and went back to rest. When he returned to Beijing, the secret guards had doubled, and there were also guards, servants, maids and old women in the palace. Mo Liujin could only watch Chu Qingmeng go back to the palace with reluctance. He felt sad just thinking about not being able to stay together for the next few days.

Seeing her son's absent-minded appearance, Concubine Liu was even more furious. What was so good about that bitch? She couldn't help at all! Jin'er was completely obsessed with her! And the prince was about to get married! And his eyes were still fixed on her! Mo Liujin's eyes were full of Chu Qingmeng, and he didn't notice Concubine Liu's anger at all. However, Mo Liuyuan noticed it and frowned.
