The bright moon is in the sky
Thirty li outside of Dolan City, on the vast grasslands, the continuous Great Jin military camp was immersed in tranquility. Soldiers slept soundly, for tomorrow they would attack Dolan, and everyone needed to conserve their energy to be fully spirited on the battlefield to achieve greatness.
In the camp, only a few patrols carried torches, patrolling around the area.
In the main tent of the military camp, Nangong Yi lay on his side on the couch, breathing lightly. The sheep horn lamp on the table cast a soft and gentle glow around him, casting flickering shadows on his incomparably handsome face. His long lashes, healthy complexion, and perfectly symmetrical features made him look like a celestial being fallen from heaven, untainted by the world’s dirt.
The woman who sneaked into the man’s tent became a bit unstable in her heartbeat upon seeing the beautiful sight on the couch.
The man on the couch was too handsome, making her, who was usually pure of heart and little desire, unexpectedly moved. No wonder Princess Helena and Li Ruizhu, despite knowing his uncertain future, were willing to seek life and death just to marry him. This man truly had the capital to attract women!
"How much longer do you plan to sneak looks?"
With a lazy chuckle, the man opened those enchanting eyes, and his gaze teasingly played with a touch of mockery as he watched Cai Wei, who was entranced.
"Uh... that, you’re awake!"
Cai Wei became embarrassed, feeling the awkwardness of being caught red-handed.
Nangong Yi, with a light smile, stood up and walked over to her across the carpet. He was wearing a loose golden negligee, and matching underpants, the negligee left untied, shamelessly revealing his robust chest and abdominal muscles.
"Madam comes late at night, could it be that you’ve missed your husband?"
Cai Wei’s face turned red, she looked away, and snorted, "Vain, I came to you for business!"
As she spoke, Nangong Yi had already walked up to her, stretched out his hand to embrace her, gently rubbing his chin against the top of her head, his voice husky, "What business could be more important than lessening your husband’s longing?"
With that, he bent down, picked her up, and walked towards the couch.
Cai Wei struggled a couple of times to no avail, and ended up gritting her teeth and pounding on his chest, whispering angrily, "Nangong Yi, stop messing around, I have something to tell you, a very important matter!"
Nangong Yi ignored her protest, carried her steadily to the couch, and placed her down, even thoughtfully helping her take off her shoes.
Cai Wei thought he was about to lose control, so she quickly covered her chest and said, "Nangong Yi, listen to me first, this is very important, wait until after I’ve said it, then you can, you can..."
It was at this point that she realized her slip of the tongue, and her face instantly blushed as if she were bleeding, she closed her mouth, lowered her eyes, and could not go on.
Nangong Yi raised an eyebrow, a smile appearing on his lips, seemingly not intending to let her off easy. Her blushing, conflicted, and embarrassed appearance of a young girl was indeed good-looking, which made him unable to resist teasing her a little more.
Cai Wei couldn’t stand his gaze any longer and, with a red face, pinched the soft flesh on his waist and gave it a vicious twist, gritting her teeth and saying, "Go and pour me a glass of water, I’m thirsty!"
Nangong Yi hissed in pain from the twist before stretching out the words, "Really?"
"Of course it’s true, what else would it be?"
Cai Wei’s tone was not kind, and her face remained flushed, with an embarrassment of being caught in a misdeed, but she would never admit to it, using force to subdue the man.
"Aren’t you going to pour the water?"
