The entire Marquis's mansion regrets it? Too late, their little one has become the darling of t

“I’m not lying to you,” Yun Chubai blurted out.

“You pretended to be mute when you were little, so you couldn’t speak.” Yu Ningyao raised her chin and stared at him arrogantly.

Yun Chubai then remembered that when they first met as children, he didn't want to greet the Yu family, so he pretended not to know how to speak.

Thinking about this, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing that he was embarrassed, Yu Ningyao pressed her advantage.

"Tell me, are you lying to me?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Then we're even." Yun Chubai was a little embarrassed and angry, and before she could continue, he directly silenced her with his lips.

Yu Ningyao once again succumbed to the allure of his beauty and gave in to his kiss.

They kissed passionately, both somewhat lost in their own world, but in the end, Yun Chubai's strong willpower prevented them from taking the next step.

He took advantage of Yu Ningyao's dazed state after being kissed by him to try and get information out of her.

"So you agreed to be my crown princess because you recognized me? Have you remembered me all these years?"

Yu Ningyao answered instinctively, "No."

Yun Chubai: ...

He really didn't need to ask that question.

This little guy spends all his time studying medicine and practicing martial arts, surrounded by too many beautiful women, he has no time to think about him.

"Are you angry?" Yu Ningyao blinked at him.

"A little," Yun Chubai said truthfully.

His honesty made Yu Ningyao laugh out loud.

"What's there to be angry about? We only met once." Yu Ningyao couldn't bear to see him unhappy, so she reached out and smoothed his furrowed brows.

"It was twice," Yun Chubai emphasized.

Yu Ningyao remembered.

They met again in Hangzhou during the Lantern Festival, but Yun Chubai was wearing a mask at that time.

"No, it only happened once when I was little." Yu Ningyao pretended not to know.

"If you don't remember, that's fine. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to remember me in the future." Yun Chubai didn't want to talk anymore.

In the end, he was the one who got angry.

……

Because the system has not updated the task progress.

In the days that followed, Yu Ningyao changed her mind; she decided to experience what it felt like to be in a relationship.

She didn't treat Yun Chubai as a business partner, but rather as a boyfriend.

Although modern dating routines cannot be completely replicated in ancient times, Yu Ningyao still went on many dates with him earnestly.

This back-and-forth dragged on for almost a year.

With Yu Ningyao's occasional, unintentional reminders, Yun Chubai actually proposed to her again on their first wedding anniversary.

"You once said that love between two people must begin with a bouquet of flowers."

Yun Chubai held the flowers, her face serious.

As Yu Ningyao smiled, her eyes welled up with tears.

She never expected that Yun Chubai would play this "love" game with her for so long.

Throughout the year, court officials submitted numerous memorials urging the Crown Prince to take a concubine, but he rejected them all.

Some people tried to bring up the fact that she hadn't had a child in a year, but Yun Chubai refuted them all.

He had clearly promised to marry her so she could get rid of those annoying flies, but after they got married, Yun Chubai handled many things on her own.

He didn't want her to get tired.

"So... are you willing to become my Crown Princess, to grow old together, and never be apart?" Yun Chubai said, feeling inexplicably nervous.

He remembered that Yu Ningyao had mentioned something called a ring, so he hurriedly dug out the ruby ​​ring that the craftsman had made.

Yu Ningyao smiled and nodded: "I'm willing."

She stretched out her hand and offered it to Yun Chubai.

Yun Chubai hadn't reacted yet when Yu Ningyao urged, "Put it on for me."

"Oh, oh, oh." Yun Chubai suddenly realized.

I clumsily put the ring on her finger.

After the proposal, their relationship became even stronger.

Although the system's progress was still zero, Yu Ningyao no longer cared.

Am I following a trend and getting married first and then falling in love?

As Yu Ningyao chatted with the system, she started to laugh.

[That’s right. 】

The system is much more anxious than she is now.

When are you two going to sleep together? Can you hurry up? I want to finish my mission soon too.

Yu Ningyao politely declined: "It'll be soon, let me come of age first. Otherwise, I'll feel a little strange at seventeen."

Next month is her birthday, and she plans to become a real couple with Yun Chubai on that day.

Since she'd already said that, the system naturally couldn't press her any further.

But Yu Ningyao noticed that Yun Chubai was looking at her strangely.

She didn't think much of it and simply ate with him as usual.

Before they knew it, it was Yu Ningyao's eighteenth birthday.

Yu Ningyao couldn't help but whisper to the system about what was going to happen that night.

[System, system, if you say you're going to pounce on Yun Chubai tonight, should I make any preparations?]

System: [What are you preparing? He's been waiting for you for two years. He can't control himself with just a glance from you.]

Yu Ningyao: [You can't say that. After all, I rejected him two years ago, and I never said it could happen tonight.]

system:……

It's not human; it can't answer such a difficult question.

After much thought, it offered this advice: "Why don't you have a drink? Alcohol emboldens the timid, and then, with a burst of energy, pounce on him!"

Yu Ningyao thought this was a good idea and nodded in agreement.

That night, Yu Ningyao hadn't prepared the wine yet, but Yun Chubai had.

"Today is your birthday. I've prepared a gift for you. I don't know if you'll like it." Yun Chubai presented him with a sword that he had painstakingly collected.

"I like it, I like it. Let's have a few drinks!" Yu Ningyao nodded, eager to get to the point.

She had been waiting for this day for a very, very long time.

Yun Chubai cooperated readily and immediately ordered wine to be served.

The two chatted and talked, and Yun Chubai became more and more energetic, while she herself became slightly tipsy.

She suddenly became anxious.

[System, how am I supposed to tackle him if he's not drunk?]

She was so focused on communicating with the system that she didn't notice the subtle change in Yun Chubai's eyes.

"If he's not drunk, why don't you just pretend to be?" the system quickly reminded you.

Yu Ningyao thought it made sense, so she quickly pretended to be drunk.

"Yun Chubai, I feel so dizzy, I want to sleep."

"Okay, let's go back inside." Yun Chubai picked her up by the waist, his eyes growing increasingly dark.

Once inside the house, Yun Chubai dismissed the servants.

Yu Ningyao hooked her arms around his neck and kissed him.

Once they started kissing, they couldn't stop.

In her daze, Yu Ningyao was still thinking, "Ah, is she really that charming? She couldn't resist kissing Yun Chubai?"

"You're still daydreaming? Looks like I haven't been trying hard enough." Yun Chubai gently bit her earlobe.

Yu Ningyao had something to say but couldn't say it.

This is not what you call not trying hard enough? It happened several times a night.

There is no man in the world who works harder than him.

A man who hasn't had sex in 22 years is terrifying.

When Yu Ning woke up the next day, her back ached, and Yun Chubai had already gone to the morning court.

The moment she regained consciousness, she heard the system's surprised voice.

[Congratulations, host! Mission accomplished. Current mission progress 100%!]

Yu Ningyao's eyes widened suddenly; she hadn't expected the mission to be completed so abruptly.

Can I make a choice now?

Yu Ningyao was both excited and apprehensive.

The system was delighted: "Hmm, what do you think? Do you want to stay or go back?"

Now it was Yu Ningyao's turn to be conflicted.

Ten years ago, she might have chosen to go home without hesitation, but now, she has lived in this world for eighteen years.

She has family and a lover, and she is reluctant to leave.

Can I have a moment to think about it?

Yu Ningyao hesitated.

The system notifies you: [This message will be retained for a maximum of 24 hours. After 24 hours, the return channel will be closed.]

"Okay." Yu Ningyao nodded heavily.

If she doesn't go back, will she ever be able to go back again?

Does she really want to stay?
