382 It’s So Hot It’s Almost on Fire
Liu Shimei had sensitive ears. When he exhaled that warm breath near her, her body involuntarily shivered, and her ear turned red.
Seeing those rosy cheeks, Huangfu Lingyao's eyes deepened instantly, a touch of crimson tainting his eye corners.
Having outsiders around meant they could not have a proper alone time with his wife. But when they were alone, it was easy for the heart to wander, for things to get complicated!
Liu Shimei wanted to remain composed, but her thin skin easily turned red, something she could not control.
Perhaps they had discussed this topic back in the Thousand Butterfly Valley. She had mentally prepared herself for this, after all, they were going to be husband and wife, and as long as nothing crossed their boundaries, they were going to spend a lifetime together.
If, in the future, he truly demanded their marital duties, she might accept it, perhaps?
So, after making up her mind, she didn't mind him kissing her ear. She pushed him away gently and said, "Lingyao, why don't you sit a bit further? It's hot, and you tend to sweat a lot."
"It is indeed hot," Huangfu Lingyao did not move, muttering this with a strangely low, husky voice.
Hotter than the weather!
Hotter than blood!
Their bodies were practically on fire!
But he could not do anything!
He did not dare to kiss her again, just held her without moving and said, "I don't care, I want to hold you even if it's hot!"
His lips were already close to her ear, and saying this made it even harder for Liu Shimei to bear.
She took a deep breath and found a subtle way to say, "Lingyao, you're quite heavy. I'm finding it hard to breathe."
"Oh." Huangfu Lingyao was afraid of appearing too conspicuous in front of her, so he did not want to let go. However, considering that his wife was indeed petite in stature, although he had experienced firsthand that no matter how he pressed her, she wouldn't break, as a man, he should still be considerate to his wife, shouldn't he?
Reluctantly, he released her, thought for a moment, and then held her in front of him. He positioned himself behind her, leaning against the carriage wall.
In this new position, he was not pressing down on her, but he still held her close, refusing to let go, his strong arms encircling her slender waist.
Inwardly, Liu Shimei sighed and thought to herself, 'What should I do with this overly clingy Husky? I'll just wait patiently online, no need to rush to answer me!'
It probably wouldn't help to rush anyway, Liu Shimei thought. Heaven would probably answer: This Husky doesn't spend all day thinking about causing chaos in the house, so be satisfied!
"Wife." After quite a while, the silly puppy behind her finally spoke. His voice seemed more normal now.
Liu Shimei's flushed face had also improved a bit, and she responded, "Hmm?"
"I've come up with a great idea!" Huangfu Lingyao leaned over from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and, being careful not to tire her out, gently controlled his strength.
Out of the blue, this dog had this to say. Liu Shimei asked in confusion, "What good idea?"
Huangfu Lingyao said with great seriousness, "Father wants Eldest Orince to get married first before it's our turn. Why don't we just hurry up his wedding?"
It was only late April now. The Crown Prince had just finished selecting his consort for the Mid-Autumn Festival. If they waited for him to prepare for his wedding, he would not be able to marry her until at least September!
It was too long!
Each day was agonizing. How could they endure it?
"Oh, and how do you propose we make him marry sooner?" Liu Shimei did not think his proposal was feasible, but she played along.
But her puppy had clearly thought about it. Seeing her lack of opposition, it was as if she had already agreed. He immediately said excitedly, "Isn't it simple? If he doesn't choose, we'll choose for him!"
