h the mistress and her child in her womb.An Xuetang thought, in this era, it was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines. Even though her family's Jing was already married with children...At this moment, Mo Yunjing's gaze was something An Xuetang was all too familiar with. It was the unmistakable look of someone who wanted to continue ravishing her, devouring her completely.

She felt a shiver run down her spine when he looked at her. She quickly cleared her throat and said, "A... Ajing, you haven't answered my question yet."

Mo Yunjing reached out and touched her cheek, "I haven't really found a way to measure the amount of your question."

"Huh What do you mean"

"Even my life is far less valuable than a single finger of yours. What... should your husband say to describe how much you weigh in his heart"

"!!!"

This answer instantly struck a chord in An Xuetang's heart. She stared blankly at Mo Yunjing's eyes, completely unsure how to respond.

Mo Yunjing loved her gaze. Right now, his eyes were burning hotter than ever as he stared into her black orbs.

He almost couldn't hold himself back from rolling over, but remembering how he had ravaged her a few hours earlier, he could only suppress his urges.

He gently tapped her nose, "Silly"

An Xuetang came back to her senses, she pursed her lips and looked at Mo Yunjing, silent for a moment before finding her voice again, "A-Jing, when... did you discover that you liked me"

Two people were initially bound together by marriage, and she never expected any feelings to develop between them.

He had never asked, how he fell in love with her.

At that time, she had just arrived in this foreign world. She had to admit that staying by his side at that moment was the best choice she had made after weighing her options.

And everything between her and him just felt destined, natural and effortless.

But just now she heard Yun Liu declare his heart for Ning'er in front of her. She suddenly remembered, Mo Yun Jing had never spoken to her with such blatant and direct confession.

Mo Yunjing fell silent again, his deep eyes fixed intently on her clear ones.

When did you start liking her

If he truly had to pinpoint an exact node, he wouldn't be able to.

Because even he didn't know from when he started wanting to keep her by his side forever.

Perhaps she was buying clothes for herself, or maybe she saw her vulnerable side exposed as she tried to disguise herself. Or perhaps it was the way she threw herself into healing, or the moment she risked her life to protect something she held dear...

Looking back now, he realized that although they hadn't known each other for very long, it felt as if they had already been close and in love for ages.

After asking the question, An Xuetang felt a little nervous, wanting to know how he would answer. However, she waited for a long time but still didn't get a response from him.

She blinked, about to ask something else, when Mo Yunjing asked leisurely, “What about Tangtang”

"...."

An Xuetang was slightly startled, tightening her grip on Mo Yunjing's hand. She didn't know how to answer for a moment

When did you start liking him

Seeing her answer him just as helplessly, Mo Yunjing chuckled, "Then let me ask a different question, what does Tangtang like about her husband"

What do you like about him

An Xuetang pursed her lips, she hadn't really thought about this question.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly chuckled, "Ajing, don't forget that your queen is a beauty-lover. Of course, she likes your handsome face that captivates both humans and gods."

Mo Yun Jing silently twitched his lips, "Well, it seems that this husband will have to protect this face well."

An Xuetang let out a soft chuckle, then buried her head in his warm chest and asked softly, "A-Jing, after entering the capital, I realized that there are so many beautiful women here. Although the Emperor doesn't favor you, you are still a prince who has had your own fiefdom for many years. Why haven't you taken a wife all these years"

After this year, Mo Yunjing was already twenty-five years old. At his age here, he should have had many wives and concubines and several children by now.

It's strange that after all these years, he has remained a solitary figure.

Mòyúnjǐng looped his arm around her slender waist, "Perhaps he was waiting for you."

An Xue Tang instantly let out a light chuckle, "King Beijiang is getting better with his words."

As they chatted, An Xue Tang didn't even know when she fell asleep.

Listening to her gradually even breathing, Mo Yunjing gently placed a kiss on her forehead.

Shortly after An Xuetang fell asleep, the atmosphere in the courtyard where Ning'er and the others lived became quite heavy.

Ning'er, Shou'er, and Kang'er knelt on the ground.

Feng Ming's pair of murky eyes stared at Ning'er, without saying a word.

For a long while, the courtyard was silent. Fenghuang only coldly uttered a sentence, “This seat has never opposed your leaving.”

Ning'er's heart skipped a beat, her face paled slightly, and she quickly said, "Ning'er will never betray the Princess. As long as the Princess doesn't drive Ning'er away, Ning'er will forever follow the Princess. Ning'er's life belongs to the Princess!"

As someone who has watched Feng Ming grow up, he naturally believes that Ning'er will keep her word. He will have Mo Yunjing remind Yunliu of their agreement. As long as Ning'er doesn't disappoint him, it will be fine.

His deep, emotionless eyes stared at Ning'er before he turned and walked away.

He had to admit, Ning'er was the most suitable one among them all to stay by A Tang's side, both in terms of personality and ability.

So he wouldn't let Ning'er leave easily, but she and Yunliu couldn't be together either, otherwise things would become much more complicated than just letting her go.

After Feng Ming disappeared, Shou'er and Kang'er hurriedly got up to help Ning'er.

I helped Ning'er into the room and seated her on the bed. Kang'er quickly went to pour her a cup of hot water to warm up.

Shou'er looked at Ning'er's pale face, wanting to speak but holding back.

Ning'er looked up and saw her expression, she pursed her lips and said, "What do you want to ask"

Kang'er had already brought over a water cup and handed it to Ning'er, "Drink some hot water first."

"Thank you."

Ninger took it and sipped it.

"Kanger sighed softly, 'We don't need to be so polite with each other, sister. It's just... Ning'er, the Valley Master seems very angry. If he were to scold us harshly or punish us, it would be better. The more calm he is, the more frightening it becomes.'"

Ning'er also knew, she sat on the bed with a blank expression, wondering what she was thinking about.

Shou'er silently looked at her for a moment, and finally asked the question, "Ning'er, do you really like Yunliu"

"!"

Ning'er hesitated for a moment, her hand clenching and unclenching the teacup.

Seeing her like this, Shou'er and Kang'er looked at each other in surprise.

As sisters who grew up together, they understood Ning'er's situation perfectly.

But they hadn't expected that Ning'er, the one among them who was best at controlling her emotions, would fall in love with someone.

After a moment of silence, Ning'er raised her head. "Don't worry, I won't let myself get into trouble. No matter what happens deep down inside, I'm still me, I won't change."

That is to say, even though Yunliu had already taken residence in her heart, she was still the person who would only serve the princess. Her lifelong mission would not change.Er in the distance, he put away the anger in his eyes and nodded slightly to Ye Er.Ye Er returned a salute and then turned to leave.Watching Ye Er's departing figure, the President's face darkened sli...
