The next morning, Shen Shi woke up early. He saw Qi Jingyun still sleeping peacefully in his arms; it was such a serene and peaceful scene!

Shen Shi slowly pulled his hand away from Qi Jingyun's grasp and quietly got out of bed. After Shen Shi finished washing up, Qi Jingyun was still asleep.

Shen Shi leaned down and gently kissed Qi Jingyun's forehead. A moment later, Qi Jingyun groggily woke up. "A-Shi, what time is it now?"

After hearing this, Shen Shi looked at Qi Jingyun and said softly, "Jingyun, it's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun shook his head. "Ashi, I'm not going to sleep. I still need to pay my respects to our father later!"

After hearing this, Shen Shi looked at Qi Jingyun and said with a slight smile, "Jingyun, your father will understand! It's also my fault for keeping you up all night last night!"

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun glanced at Shen Shi and lowered her head shyly. Just then, Zhihan brought in a basin of water.

"Princess, it's time for you to wash up!" Zhihan said, then wrung out a towel and handed it to Qi Jingyun. Qi Jingyun took the towel and washed her face.

After washing up, Qi Jingyun and Shen Shi went hand in hand to Shen Aotian's main courtyard.

Shen Aotian looked at Shen Shi and Qi Jingyun as they walked in, and asked with a slight smile, "Princess, did you sleep well last night?"

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun looked at Shen Aotian and said in a low voice, "Father, it's not bad!" After hearing this, Shen Aotian looked at Qi Jingyun and nodded with a slight smile.

Immediately, Qi Jingyun picked up a cup of tea and knelt down, saying, "Father, please have some tea!"

Upon seeing this, Shen Aotian quickly stood up and stepped forward to help Qi Jingyun up, saying, "Princess, how can this be? You are a noble princess!"

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun looked at Shen Aotian, shook her head with a slight smile, and said in a low voice, "Father, although Jingyun is a princess..."

“But now that I have married General Shen, I am your daughter-in-law, so you are Jingyun’s father. It is only natural for Jingyun to kneel before her own father.”

After hearing this, Shen Aotian glanced at Qi Jingyun and nodded with a slight smile. Then, he took the tea that Qi Jingyun offered and drank it all in one gulp.

After drinking the tea, Shen Aotian looked at Shen Shi and said in a low voice, "Shi'er, why don't you ask your wife to sit down? We need to prepare breakfast."

After hearing this, Shen Shi looked at Shen Aotian and nodded slightly. Shen Shi walked to Qi Jingyun's side, took her hand, and led her to a seat.

Soon, a large, sumptuous breakfast was laid out on the table. Shen Aotian looked at Qi Jingyun and said with a slight smile, "Princess, please have your breakfast!"

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun looked at Shen Aotian and shook his head slightly. "Father, just call me Jingyun!" After hearing this, Shen Aotian looked at Qi Jingyun and nodded slightly.

Shen Shi served Qi Jingyun a large bowl of lily bulb and mung bean porridge. Upon seeing this, Qi Jingyun glanced at Shen Shi and said with a slight smile, "General, thank you!"

After Qi Jingyun finished speaking, he took a few sips of porridge, looked at Shen Shi, and said with a slight smile, "General, this lily and mung bean porridge is absolutely delicious!"

After hearing this, Shen Shi looked at Qi Jingyun and affectionately patted her head. "Jingyun, eat more if you like it!" After hearing this, Qi Jingyun looked at Shen Shi and nodded with a slight smile.

Seeing this, Shen Aotian pretended to cough. Seeing this, Shen Shi hurriedly and awkwardly removed his hand from Qi Jingyun's head.

After breakfast, Shen Shi led Qi Jingyun for a stroll in the garden.

Passing by a lotus pond, Qi Jingyun looked at the beautiful lotus flowers and couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah Shi, look, these lotus flowers are really beautiful!"

As Qi Jingyun spoke, he pointed to the lotus flowers. Upon seeing this, Shen Shi glanced at Qi Jingyun, smiled slightly, and nodded.

He then stepped forward, picked a lotus flower, and handed it to Qi Jingyun. "Jingyun, this lotus flower is for you. Do you like it?"

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun glanced at Shen Shi and nodded with a slight smile. Holding a lotus flower in his hand, Qi Jingyun lowered his head to inhale its fragrance—it was truly a beautiful scene!

Shen Shi was stunned. What a beautiful, noble, and unique woman she was!

Feeling the intense gaze, Qi Jingyun raised her head and blinked her phoenix eyes. "Ashi, what are you looking at?"

After hearing this, Shen Shi came to his senses and shook his head slightly. "Jingyun, it's nothing! I was just looking at the most beautiful woman in the world."

Upon hearing this, Qi Jingyun glanced at Shen Shi and lowered her head shyly. Seeing this, Shen Shi pulled Qi Jingyun into his arms, his hands roaming up and down her waist.

After a while, Shen Shi finally released Qi Jingyun. He looked at Qi Jingyun and gently kissed her lips.

Seeing this, Qi Jingyun slowly closed his eyes and responded to Shen Shi's kiss.

A blush gradually appeared on Qi Jingyun's face. She gently nudged Shen Shi and said coquettishly, "Shi, we're in the garden, there are so many people here. It wouldn't be good if we were seen!"

After hearing this, Shen Shi released Qi Jingyun, saying, "This is our own home. I'm embracing my own wife. Who dares to object? And who can say anything?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Jingyun felt a surge of warmth in his heart, but he still said, "Ashi, wouldn't it be bad if Father saw us? He'll blame us later!"

“Jingyun, Father won’t blame us,” Shen Shi said softly. “He will be even more pleased if we are happy!”

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun looked at Shen Shi and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, a maid came running up, panting, "General, your niece, Miss Su, has arrived!"

"Quickly, please come in!" Shen Shi said, glancing at the maid and waving his hand. A moment later, the maid brought Su Yun Chu in.

Su Yun Chu glanced at Shen Shi, then at Qi Jing Yun, bowed, and said with a slight smile, "Greetings, Sixth Uncle and Sixth Aunt!"

After hearing this, Shen Shi looked at Su Yun Chu and asked with a slight smile, "Chu'er, what brings you to your sixth uncle's place?"

After hearing this, Su Yun looked at Shen Shi and told him what she wanted to do when she came to see him.

It turned out that Su Yun Chu wanted to ask her sixth uncle Shen Shi and sixth aunt Qi Jing Yun to use their connections to find her brother Su Nan Xuan's whereabouts.

After hearing this, Shen Shi glanced at Su Yun Chu and nodded slightly. He had always dreamed of finding Su Nan Xuan, who was the son of his most beloved sister.

Qi Jingyun glanced at Su Yun Chu and said with a slight smile, "Chu'er, since you call me Sixth Aunt, I, Qi Jingyun, will definitely help you with this!"

After hearing this, Su Yun Chu looked at Qi Jing Yun and said in a low voice, "Sixth Aunt, on behalf of my brother Su Nan Xuan, thank you!"

After hearing this, Qi Jingyun shook his head slightly, "Chu'er, we're all family, why are you thanking me? That's too formal!"

Su Yun Chu chatted with Shen Shi and Qi Jing Yun for a while before preparing to bow and leave.

Shen Shi and Qi Jingyun stopped her, saying, "Chu'er, why don't you have lunch before you leave? Your maternal grandfather is here too."

After hearing this, Su Yun looked at Shen Shi, then at Qi Jingyun, and nodded with a slight smile.
