Best friends dressed up in ancient times to become mistresses? You run, I run too!

"Shameless!"

Shen Ningzhu was so angry that her face turned red and her chest heaved violently. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out those two words.

She never dreamed that this matter would be exposed so quickly; it was completely beyond her expectations.

Shen Ningzhu involuntarily clenched her palms tightly, leaving deep marks from her fingernails.

It seemed that only in this way could the anxiety and unease in my heart be slightly relieved.

The current situation is somewhat tricky.

Shen Ningzhu frowned, a series of thoughts flashing through her mind.

Or... why not just go all the way and knock him out?

Given his current swaying and weak state, knocking him unconscious would not be difficult.

The problem is, how do you precisely control the force of your strike?

What if you accidentally kill someone?

Thinking of this, Shen Ningzhu couldn't help but sigh. The frustration in her heart made her wish she could immediately reach out and pluck all of Jiang Xuan Yan's hair to relieve her anger.

Just then, Jiang Xuanyan suddenly softened his tone, and his previously tense arms tightened slightly, holding Shen Ningzhu even closer.

He lowered his head, leaned close to her ear, and whispered coaxingly in a deep, magnetic voice:

"Zhuzhu, please don't leave me, okay?"

As he spoke, his warm breath gently brushed against Shen Ningzhu's sensitive earlobe, instantly bringing an indescribable tingling sensation.

It sent a shiver down her spine, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Zhuzhu, is it because my technique is not good enough? Are you not satisfied with my service at night? I'll learn, can't I change it? You can't leave your father and son."

Shen Ningzhu frowned and struggled, but only felt a tightening in her lower back.

Jiang Xuan Yan pulled her forward sharply, and her soft, flat stomach unexpectedly pressed against his.

An unusually high temperature seeped through her clothes and quickly spread throughout her body. The man swayed, silently trying to please her.

Shen Ningzhu felt as if her scalp was about to explode.

My heart was pounding, and images of the chaotic scene between the two of us on the bed kept flashing through my mind.

Thinking of his endless antics, which were utterly shameless, and his intensely possessive nature, her face continued to flush.

The man was very satisfied with her performance and continued to hold her close, rubbing against her and speaking softly to her.

"If you're leaving, can you take me with you?"

"Don't worry, I'm willing to follow you wherever you go and protect you at all times."

"If you agree, I'll have someone bring Jinxiu Huanian to us, and our family will never be separated, okay?"

Shen Ningzhu's pretty face flushed red, and she pushed him away in anger.

"Have you no shame?"

The man's hairy head gently nuzzled against her collarbone, like a puppy, and his warm lips brushed against her slender, fair neck, his voice tinged with a hint of grievance.

"Shameless, I want you."

"In my heart, nothing is more important than you."

Shen Ningzhu was stunned, her mind a jumbled mess.

Jiang Xuan Yan, with his deep, gruff voice and clingy, persistent manner, was someone she had never seen before.

He rested his head on Shen Ningzhu's shoulder, his strong arms encircling her slender waist tightly.

Most of his strength was pressed down on Shen Ningzhu, making it hard for her to stand. She raised her hand to push him, but couldn't push him away.

The breathing around my ear was heavy.

A strong smell of blood wafted from the tip of my nose.

Shen Ningzhu was startled. Looking down, she saw that the wound on the man's chest had reopened sometime during the night.

Bright red blood trickled down the overlapping collar, staining the exquisite patterns embroidered with gold and silver threads on the collar red.

Thinking that he had just shielded her from an arrow and was in a hurry to leave the palace before his wound had even healed, she suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if she were a heartless ingrate.

The man was very weak, as if he was about to faint at any moment.

But he stubbornly endured it.

After much back and forth, it was already evening.

Shen Ningzhu kept looking up at the sky, but her waist was held tightly. Just as she was becoming extremely anxious, two clear voices called out from afar, "Mother—"

Immediately overjoyed.

"My little girl, my dear—"

Before she could even enjoy her happiness for long, Jiang Yi and Jiang Er appeared quickly, one carrying Jinxiu and the other carrying Huanian.

"What are you doing? Let go of this prince!"

"Release this princess, I need to find my mother."

Shen Ningzhu's face stiffened, and she glared fiercely at Jiang Xuanyan, only to have her eyes covered by his large hand, and she let out a deep sigh.

"Zhuzhu, if you hate me, then hate me. I'll do whatever you say, except leave."

Shen Ningzhu rolled her eyes and cleared her throat.

"it is good."

Jiang Xuanyan:? ? ?

"What are you looking at? I said okay."

Shen Ningzhu glared at him playfully, then said irritably, "Aren't you going to let go? You've been standing here for ages, aren't you tired? I am tired, not you."

Jiang Xuan Yan's narrow eyes narrowed slightly.

He didn't believe Shen Ningzhu would give up so easily, but she was right; standing there like this wasn't a solution.

Moreover, his body had already reached its limit, and if he stood any longer, he might faint. If Shen Ningzhu took advantage of him fainting and ran away, where would he go to cry?

So, he obediently sat down with her at the stone table.

But he still held Shen Ningzhu's hands tightly, stubbornly refusing to let go no matter how eloquently she spoke.

Shen Ningzhu had no choice but to let him have his way for now, and she called out to the two children.

"My little one, come here, come to your mother's side."

Jiang Yi and Jiang Er looked at Jiang Xuan Yan, and seeing him nod slightly, they put the two of them down.

As soon as they were free, the two of them ran over and threw themselves into Shen Ningzhu's arms.

"Mother~~~"

"Mother~~~"

"Hmm, good boy, have you been good lately? Have you had dinner? Are you hungry? Tell Mommy what you want to eat."

Shen Ningzhu tried her best to stall for time. She planned to wait for the right opportunity to break free from Jiang Xuan Yan and quickly pull the two children away.

Jinxiu Huanian and his companion already knew everything from Qingfeng.

Naturally, he was fully prepared before leaving the palace. He was just about to say that he wasn't hungry when he suddenly remembered something and his eyes lit up.

"Mom, my sister and I want to eat snail rice noodles."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuan Yan's handsome face instantly darkened to an ink-black hue, and he spoke in a low, deliberate voice, enunciating each word clearly.

"Shen—Huan—Nian—"

Shen Huanian's small body trembled, and he burrowed even deeper into Shen Ningzhu's arms, shrinking his head and not daring to make a sound.

Jiang Xuan Yan was even angrier. He was about to punish him when Shen Ning Zhu shot him a glare, and he immediately backed down.

"Someone, go and tell the kitchen to cook two bowls of snail rice noodles and bring them over, just slightly spicy."

The two little ones opened their mouths, but hesitated to speak.

They wanted medium spicy food; they used to eat medium spicy food secretly back in the palace.

But remembering what Shen Ningzhu had said before, that eating too much spicy food would harm a child's stomach, I didn't dare to say anything.

Soon, the maid brought out the cooked snail rice noodles and placed them in front of the two of them.

Before the two of them could even eat, Shen Ningzhu noticed something strange in the sky.
