Chapter 408: Chapter 408: Cross-Dressing Female General VS Enchanting Femme Fatale (30) Chapter 408: Chapter 408: Cross-Dressing Female General VS Enchanting Femme Fatale (30) Gu Shengyin woke up very early the next day.
As soon as she woke up, she felt something was off. Without opening her eyes, Gu Shengyin’s thoughts whirred in her mind, flashes of scenes passed by, and she finally understood what she had done the night before.
After getting drunk, not only had she confessed all her secrets, but she had also ‘packaged’ herself and sent herself off!
Thinking of certain things, her breathing became erratic, and she felt the arm around her waist tighten.
At the same time, a familiar voice came from above: “Good morning, Yunzhen.”
Jiang Huan’s voice was perfectly normal, without much awkwardness, which settled Gu Shengyin’s mind a great deal.
She inwardly despised herself: How could she, who had experienced so many lives, have less resolve than a lover without the memories of reincarnation?
With that thought, she boldly met his gaze, looking into Jiang Huan’s smiling eyes: “Shian, good morning.”
Feeling the hand at her back slowly wandering, Gu Shengyin blinked and said, “I’m going to visit my father today. I ran out like that yesterday, he must be worried.”
The man’s intentions couldn’t be clearer. Although Fu Yunzhen’s body was strong by nature, it was still her first time, and she couldn’t withstand a second toll.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Huan seemed frail, but in certain aspects, he was incredibly fierce.
Jiang Huan sighed, with a soft fragrant warmth in his arms, it was his first taste of such delights, and he was just starting to savor the flavor. It was impossible not to want more, but seeing Gu Shengyin’s demeanor, he knew he couldn’t force her and withdrew his hand, watching Gu Shengyin dress without any attempt to conceal herself.
By the time Gu Shengyin was dressed, she turned around to find that Jiang Huan had also finished dressing.
Using the water provided by servants to wash her face, Jiang Huan looked at her and suddenly sighed: “I wonder when I’ll be able to draw your eyebrows for you, Yunzhen.”
Gu Shengyin also fell silent at his words. She was currently “in male guise,” and it was impossible to powder her face, draw her eyebrows, or adorn with flowers. Jiang Huan’s wish might be something that he could never fulfill in his lifetime.
Seeing her reaction, Jiang Huan also realized what he had said.
He stepped forward and gently wrapped his arms around Gu Shengyin’s waist from behind: “Don’t overthink it. I was just saying it casually.”
Gu Shengyin really wasn’t upset. Hearing her lover’s reassurance, she even had the mood for a joke: “Your Royal Highness Prince Rong, if you merely asked, how many women would be willing to let you do their eyebrows even without wanting a title?”
Jiang Huan furrowed his brows and held Gu Shengyin’s hand more firmly, saying in a deep voice, “Yunzhen, never speak such words again. In my life, once I, Jiang Huan, have committed to you alone, there will be no one else.”
Gu Shengyin knew that he was her lover, so she had confidence in him. But hearing such words still inevitably moved her.
Unlike in previous lifetimes, Fu Yunzhen’s true identity could not be revealed, or else it would be the Fu Family deceiving the emperor. If Jiang Huan chose to be with her, it was very likely that the relationship between the two would never be made public for their entire lives.
He would not be able to marry and have children and would inevitably have to face pressure from the outside world and even the Imperial Family.
Gu Shengyin felt she was being selfish, knowing that this was very unfair to Jiang Huan. Yet, she couldn’t bear the thought of her lover being with other women.
Moreover, she was not the kind of woman who was prone to doubt and sorrow; she knew how deep her lover’s feelings for her were.
She had enough confidence that in Jiang Huan’s eyes, there was no room for any other woman.
