If it wasn't Wang Qingci, then who was thoughtless enough to disturb Lu Chen while he was attending to state affairs by running into the study, and even doing that sort of thing with him.
Having arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, Wang Qingci intended to continue speaking, but suddenly heard a series of strange noises. Then she looked up at the study windows and, upon seeing two shadows, said with a smile, "I never would have guessed Madam Chu has such a hobby."
"But what's the point of eavesdropping? To experience something once is worth more than eavesdropping a hundred times."
Upon hearing Wang Qingci's words, Chu Yuqin snorted coldly and then, without asking which maidservant was inside, she turned around and left.
Watching Chu Yuqin's departing figure, Wang Qingci smiled slightly. Although she didn't know if Chu Yuqin had ever done that sort of thing with Lu Chen, in her view, not a single woman in the inner court could escape from the palm of Lu Chen's hand, aside from the maidservants and lower servants.
After Chu Yuqin's figure disappeared from view, Wang Qingci turned her head to the maidservant and asked, "Which lady of the Prince's Mansion is inside?"
Startled by the question, the little maidservant hesitated—though Wang Qingci was also one of Lu Chen's women, it was the first time Lin Wanyun had appeared in the study, so she wasn't sure if it was permissible to divulge such matters.
Seeing the little maidservant hesitating without answering immediately, Wang Qingci instantly guessed that the woman in the study must not be one of Lu Chen's usual women, and it was highly likely that he had conquered another one.
Was it Chu Qingli? Or possibly Lin Wanyun, or Chen Wanrong?
Judging by the voice, it didn't sound like Chu Qingli or Chen Wanrong; the voice seemed subdued, clearly that of someone older and with a strong sense of shame.
Then it could only be Lin Wanyun.
Wang Qingci covered her mouth and chuckled. She didn't feel jealous at the thought of Lu Chen having one more woman.
On the contrary, her heart was somewhat pleased that Lu Chen had added another woman.
Her feelings towards Lu Chen were always complex; she was afraid both of Lu Chen not seeking her out, and of him seeking her every single day.
It was better for Lu Chen to have more women; that way, he wouldn't have to watch her, a mere female slave, all the time.
With this thought, Wang Qingci said to the maidservant Xiao Huan, "Xiao Huan, once the Prince finishes his business, tell him I came looking for him, and have someone come to my courtyard to remind me."
"Yes, Lady Wang," replied the maidservant immediately.
Subsequently, Wang Qingci turned and left.
At dawn, the crowing of roosters sounded over and over, yet Lu Chen was still savoring the delectable encounter from yesterday.
At that time, Lu Chen felt somewhat regretful; he thought he should not have done those things in the study yesterday, but rather should have found a bedroom.
Lin Wanyun and Yelv Nanyan were of the same type, with extremely supple bodies.
Supple bodies are the most comfortable to hold while sleeping, and since one can't sleep in the study, it felt a bit wasteful.
While Lu Chen was occupied, a timid voice came from the doorway, "Prince, the Princess has made breakfast and brought it for you."
Hearing this voice, Lin Wanyun woke as if from a dream, trying to extricate herself from Lu Chen, only to be firmly pinned down by him and unable to move.
Lu Chen said with a smile, "Wanyun, don't rush; we still have plenty of time."
Lin Wanyun turned her head, her cheeks flushed with shame and indignation, and cursed, "You devil, I will not submit!"
Lu Chen chuckled and then said to the maidservant outside, "Take the breakfast back, tell the Princess I'll eat later when I come back."
"Yes, Prince," the maidservant replied.
After the maidservant left, Lu Chen bent down again and kissed Lin Wanyun's lips once more.
