The Emperor, with more men than women, made me his mistress.

Sensing the changes in her body, Yue Li didn't dare to delay. She used her fingers to perform another cleansing spell on herself, then got up wrapped in a thin blanket and went to find her clothes.

After searching the room, she found nothing except the belt that had been left in a corner of the bed and the cloth strip she used to wrap her breasts.

Since she couldn't find it, Yue Li decided not to look for it anymore. She was pressed for time and didn't have much time to find clothes.

At this moment, Yue Li was only thinking about leaving this place as soon as possible, and she did not remember that she had been carried to the bathroom and forced to take a bath last night.

Just as Yue Li was about to take another set of clothes from her space, she saw a tray on the round table in the room, with a light purple fabric on it.

Stepping forward, Yue Li picked up the fabric and unfolded it, only then did she see clearly that it was a light purple dress, and it was an inner garment, with an outer garment and a bodice all prepared.

Even more coincidentally, the dress was in my size.

Seeing the complete set of clothes prepared for her, Yue Li blushed again and pursed her small cherry lips.

It's obvious who this is for.

Since she already had clothes prepared, Yue Li didn't take any more clothes from her own space.

After all, we're not on our own turf now. Who knows if someone will suddenly appear out of nowhere? It's always better to be careful on someone else's turf.

She quickly put on her bodice and inner garment, and just as Yue Li was about to put on her outer skirt, she heard footsteps coming from outside the screen.

Yue Li: ……

Yue Li, who was already on edge, was startled. Without thinking, she threw the dress she was holding back onto the round table and ran back to the bed.

After returning to her bed, Yue Li quickly drew the bed curtains back up.

But after waiting for a long time, no footsteps came near.

So, Yue Li quietly pulled up a corner of the bed curtain and looked out from there. After confirming that no one was in the bedroom, she quietly got out of bed.

She tiptoed to the round table, picked up the dress, quickly put it on, and then tiptoed carefully to the screen.

Peeking out from behind the screen, Yue Li peeked out and met a pair of dark, deep eyes.

Yue Li: ……

Why didn't this person make a sound after coming in? If she had heard someone in the room earlier, she would have definitely suppressed her damn curiosity.

So what to do now?

How to do?

How to do?

At this moment, Yue Li, whose mind was completely blank, really felt like scratching her head.

Looking into those dark, deep eyes that were staring at her, Yue Li awkwardly scratched the floor with her toes on her small, white feet.

At this moment, Jin Chenyuan, who was sitting on the soft couch, was also very nervous. He did not expect that Yue Li would wake up and get up in the short time he had just gone out.

He had thought he'd misheard the chaotic sounds coming from the bedroom when he entered.

But now, looking at Yue Li, whose little head was only peeking out from behind the screen and whose fox-like eyes were blinking at him, Jin Chenyuan didn't know what to say for a moment.

The two stared at each other for a while, when suddenly a gurgling sound reached their ears, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

As soon as the gurgling sound came out, Yue Li immediately pulled her little head back.

Yue Li, who had pulled her head back, clutched her rumbling stomach, feeling utterly helpless and on the verge of tears.

This is so embarrassing, so incredibly embarrassing!

She's probably lost all face in her life today!

Jin Chenyuan, who was sitting on the soft couch in the outer room, was startled when he heard the gurgling sound. When he saw the little head shrink back, a doting smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Putting down the folding fan he was holding, Jin Chenyuan got up and went to the door. He said to You Yun, who was waiting at the door, "Go and have the kitchen staff bring over the food prepared for the princess."

Youyun, who was waiting at the door whispering with Huanyun, knew that the princess had woken up when he heard his master's order. He immediately bowed and said, "Yes, master, I will go right away."

With that, You Yun quickly left the courtyard.

Jin Chenyuan's personal attendants, Siyun, not only served as guards but also acted as servants, so the four of them also had people under their command to do as they pleased.

For everyday matters, the four of them would assign their subordinates to handle them.

However, since it concerned the princess, You Yun dared not be careless.

Seeing You Yun leave, Jin Chenyuan turned around and went back to his room. However, this time he did not stop at the soft couch, but slowly walked to the screen.

As the footsteps drew closer, Yue Li wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Her hand twitched restlessly at her side, but after thinking it over, Yue Li still didn't take out the invisibility talisman from her space and stick it on her body to make herself completely invisible.

As the footsteps approached and a tall figure loomed over her, the faint scent of sandalwood wafted into her nostrils. Yue Li covered her stomach with both hands to stop it from rumbling, turned her back, and dared not look at Jin Chenyuan, who had already walked up to her.

Looking at Yue Li, who was pretending to be an ostrich, Jin Chenyuan reached out from behind and pulled her slender and soft body into his arms. She nestled perfectly into his broad embrace. Jin Chenyuan rubbed his chin against the top of Yue Li's head and let out a satisfied sigh, "Li Bao..."

A gentle yet magnetic voice entered her ears, and the word "Li Bao" instantly reminded Yue Li of what had happened last night.

Immediately afterwards, she couldn't help but blush, and lowered her head, saying in a sweet voice, "Don't call me that."

Hearing the sweet little voice in front of him, Jin Chenyuan felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey. He reached out and turned the little body in his arms around so that Yue Li was facing him.

Suddenly, when he looked down, he saw Yue Li's bare, fair feet. He bent down, picked Yue Li up, and carried her to the bedside, gently scolding her as he went, "Even though it's summer, you can't walk barefoot on the floor. What if the cold air from the floor gets into your body?"

"Ah!" The sudden feeling of weightlessness startled Yue Li, and she instinctively grabbed Jin Chenyuan's shirt with her right hand.

Upon hearing Jin Chenyuan's words, Yue Li subconsciously retorted, "It's already mid-June, it's unbearably hot, where would the chill come from?"

If it weren't forbidden, she would love to walk barefoot every day, just like in modern times, wearing sandals barefoot—how comfortable!

Arriving at the bedside, Jin Chenyuan first helped Yue Li sit on the bed, then hung up the bed curtains. He then sat on the bed himself and pulled Yue Li back into his arms, letting her sit on his lap. He then said, "Although the weather is hot, the sun doesn't reach the indoor floor, so the floor is still quite cool."

Looking at Yue Li, who was being held in his arms, huffing and puffing, yet wanting to argue back, Jin Chenyuan did what he had been thinking about all morning.

He lowered his head and kissed Yue Li's open red lips, licking and caressing them, savoring her sweetness until she was breathless and her mouth was dry.

He pressed his forehead against hers, looking at Yue Li's hazy, brimming eyes and slightly swollen lips, and couldn't resist giving her another kiss on the corner of her glistening lips. "Li Bao, shall we get married?"

"What? Get married?"

Originally feeling dizzy and lightheaded from the kiss, Yue Li immediately perked up upon hearing the words "marriage two".

"No way, you want to marry me?" she said, pointing incredulously at Jin Chenyuan and then at herself.

Seeing Yue Li's expression, Jin Chenyuan's eyes darkened, but his words became even gentler, "What? After you've taken advantage of me, Li Bao, don't you plan to take responsibility?"

"Cough cough cough cough cough..."

Upon hearing Jin Chenyuan's words, Yue Li nearly choked on her own saliva.
