Concentrating on relieving the itch in her ears, Yue Li didn't notice that as she tilted her head, her lips brushed against Jin Chenyuan's thin lips.

With her gentle, back-and-forth rubbing motion, she also repeatedly rubbed against Jin Chenyuan's thin lips.

Of course, Jin Chenyuan could have avoided all of this; he only needed to raise his head slightly to avoid Yue Li's cherry lips.

But why did he choose to avoid it?

He couldn't have been happier to have such delicious food delivered right to his door!

After Yue Li relieved the itch in her ears, she looked up and saw Jin Chenyuan's dark eyes staring at her. The strangeness on her lips made Yue Li subconsciously stick out her tongue and lick it.

Instantly, Yue Li froze.

She glanced down at the spot she had licked, then looked up and met Jin Chenyuan's dark eyes.

Yue Li: ……

Below her was a low platform, and above her was Jin Chenyuan; there was nowhere to hide. Yue Li could only chuckle and shift her head to the right, trying her best to avoid Jin Chenyuan's thin lips.

Just then, a faint voice suddenly came from beside her ear, "Li Bao, if you speak so loudly, people outside will hear you."

Upon hearing this, Yue Li's fair face, which was already flushed, turned even redder. She gritted her teeth and whispered, "Jin Chenyuan, you bastard."

If someone really overheard this, how would she ever be able to face anyone again?

Jin Chenyuan didn't mind Yue Li calling him a bastard, but he didn't want to hear Yue Li call him that now, so he said directly, "Change how you address me."

"Ah!" Jin Chenyuan changed the subject too quickly, and Yue Li was still feeling embarrassed and annoyed, so she didn't keep up with his train of thought.

"I don't want to hear you call me Jin Chenyuan, it's too formal."

Yue Li: ……

Is now the time to say the name?

Realizing that Jin Chenyuan's hands showed no sign of stopping, Yue Li bit her lip to avoid making any embarrassing sounds, and quickly said, "Then stop your hands first, stop first, let me think about it properly, you need to give me time to think about it properly, right?"

As soon as Yue Li finished speaking, Jin Chenyuan stopped what he was doing and just stared at Yue Li with his dark eyes.

"Don't look at me like that, it's making me feel pressured," Yue Li complained, feeling indignant at being stared at like that by a wolf.

But as soon as she finished complaining, she noticed that the large hand that was caressing her fair skin was about to make another move. Yue Li's heart tightened, and she quickly said, "Don't worry, I've got it, I've got it."

Then, using what little quick wit she had left, she thought of Jin Chenyuan's name and carefully said, "Then I'll call you Chenyuan, how about that?"

"Change to another one."

Yue Li: ……

"Then I'll call you A-Chen, A-Yuan, or Xiao-Chen or Xiao-Yuan. What do you think of these names?" If nothing else works, she has no other choice.

Jin Chenyuan: ...

"Then from now on, Li Bao, just call me A Yuan. I like that name," Jin Chenyuan said, kissing Yue Li's earlobe repeatedly.

"Alright, Ah Yuan, can you take your hand out now? We should be arriving at the Prince's Mansion soon, right?"

Although it felt a little awkward to call Jin Chenyuan "A-Yuan," Yue Li kept convincing herself that she would get used to it.

"Okay." Upon hearing Yue Li's words, Jin Chenyuan promptly withdrew his hand from Yue Li's fair skin.

He hadn't planned to do anything too outrageous in the carriage, since they were about to arrive at the Prince's residence, and there was nothing they couldn't do there.

He straightened Yue Li's clothes, smoothed out the wrinkles, and seeing the thin layer of sweat on Yue Li's forehead, Jin Chenyuan picked up a folding fan and fanned her.

Seeing Jin Chenyuan's series of actions, Yue Li rolled her eyes. He really had a black heart. He was threatening her just now, and now he's pretending to be so attentive!

Just then, the carriage arrived at the entrance of Prince Chen's residence. The two large lanterns at the entrance illuminated the entrance very brightly.

You Yun, who was driving the carriage outside, asked, "Master, should we stop at the gate or drive into the inner courtyard?"

"Stop at the gate of the mansion."

"Yes."

Immediately, Yue Li felt the carriage stop. Before Jin Chenyuan could react, Yue Li quickly stepped out of the carriage and jumped down. Ignoring the astonished gazes of the crowd and her beloved horse, Taxue, which was being led by Huanyun, Yue Li strode into the gates of Prince Chen's residence.

After Yue Li made these moves, Jin Chenyuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately followed her out of the carriage. However, Yue Li moved too quickly; after he got out of the carriage, he only saw Yue Li's back as she walked into the gate of Prince Chen's mansion.

After stepping off the carriage using the footrests that You Yun had placed there, Jin Chenyuan asked You Yun, who was standing beside him with his hands behind his back, "How did the Princess get down?"

"Well, yes, the princess jumped down herself." You Yun was still a little surprised, so she stammered a bit.

He never expected that the princess, who was usually gentle and soft-spoken, would be so skilled in martial arts.

You should know that their master's carriage was made to the specifications of a prince. It was not only a guarantee of comfort and safety, but the shaft was also more than a meter above the ground.

And so, their usually gentle and delicate princess, who liked to act coquettishly when speaking to her master, actually jumped off the carriage with surprising agility, without needing anyone's help or any foot pedals.

And yet, the princess landed without any mishaps.

"Oh." Jin Chenyuan didn't say much, just responded, and then instructed Huanyun to take Ta Xue, which he was leading, to the stable in the mansion to feed it properly. He then strode into the mansion gate.

Jin Chenyuan had long suspected that Yue Li was skilled in martial arts, and that her skills might be quite formidable.

Putting aside everything else, the fact that Yue Li was able to discover him when he sent Chuan Wu and Huang Zhong to secretly protect Yue Li, despite their skills, is good proof.

With her long legs, she strolled leisurely into the inner courtyard, where she could be seen walking quickly ahead under the bright lights. The tassels on the hairpins in her hair swayed with her steps, and the hem of her skirt fluttered up and down with each stride.

Seeing the somewhat angry little figure ahead, Jin Chenyuan just smiled indulgently and quickened his pace.

Indeed, with Jin Chenyuan's height of almost 1.8 to 1.9 meters, compared to Yue Li's height of less than 1.7 meters, he is quite tall.

His step covered the distance of two steps for Yue Li.

Thus, the guards patrolling the inner and outer courtyards of Prince Chen's mansion, as well as the busy servants, witnessed this scene.

Their newly appointed princess consort from the Prince Chen's mansion walked ahead angrily, while their prince followed leisurely behind with a smile on his face.

The guards and servants: ...

Is staying up at night what masters find enjoyable?
