Chapter 189 Didn’t sleep well

Qian Xi came to put up the bed curtains for her. Seeing her expression, he couldn't help but feel unfair: "The princess and the prince were newly married, and the prince was taken away. It's all the fault of Prince Duan and Prince Duan! Why rebel for no reason? What's wrong with peace in the world? On the surface, you are cultivating immortality, but in fact you have a black heart!"

"It can be seen that cultivating immortals and asking for the way is just his disguise." Ying Xiang extinguished the lamp in the room: "Princess, I will be on duty outside, you can sleep peacefully. If there is anything, you can call me at any time."

Ye Wanqing responded: "Okay."

The two maids quietly left the room.

Qianxi's voice gradually became quieter as it faded away: "You will be returning home tomorrow. The prince is not here. If the princess returns home alone, she will definitely become the laughing stock of the whole capital, right? Thinking of this, I am so worried that I can't sleep."

"Shh..." Ying Xiang turned off the lamp in her hand: "The princess hasn't had a good rest these days, you should be quiet and don't disturb her sleep."

The voice disappeared.

There was only one lamp on in the room, which was shaded by the lamp and blocked by a screen, so the light was extremely dim.

There is a faint scent of roses floating in the wind.

Ye Wanqing pulled the quilt and smelled Chu Anlan's scent, like the scent of green plums and green apricots in the early morning after the rain, light and cool, with a barely audible hint of astringency in the refreshing sweetness, exuding endless vitality.

She buried her head in the quilt and fell asleep peacefully.

This sleep was a very peaceful one.

She was so safe that she didn't even notice someone entered the room.

She felt the quilt being pulled up, the bed sinking slightly, and a strong cool breath instantly enveloped her whole body.

She moved and opened her eyes: "Prince..."

A pair of eyes as bright as stars stared at her with a bit of annoyance: "Hey, why did I wake you up after all? I thought I had made enough noise."

Ye Wanqing asked: "Am I dreaming?"

Chu Anlan got into bed, propped up the bed with one hand, looked down at her, reached out and pulled one of her hands to cover his waist and abdomen: "Whether you are dreaming or not, you will know if you touch it."

The boy's skin is smooth and firm, with clear and flowing lines, and feels great to the touch.

However, Chu Anlan held her hand tightly and said, "Touch it again."

Ye Wanqing was completely awake.

She immediately retracted her hand and looked at Chu Anlan with burning eyes: "You came back from the Dali Temple Prison? Did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince release you?"

"Yes." Chu Anlan said: "But I just came back to my room after taking a shower and washing my hair. Feel my hair, it's still wet."

Ye Wanqing raised her hand and touched it.

The half-dry hair felt moist to the touch, with water droplets dripping from the ends, and the hair exuding a faint fragrance of hibiscus leaves.

She raised her eyes and said, "It's easy to get a headache if you fall asleep with wet hair. Let me wipe your hair for you, Prince."

Chu Anlan couldn't ask for more.

He used his hands and feet to get out of bed, fetched a clean handkerchief, and sat down face to face with Ye Wanqing.

Ye Wanqing looked a little unnatural, and looked to the side: "Sir, are you going to sit with me like this?"

Chu Anlan coughed lightly: "Wait for me for a moment."

As he said that, he got out of bed, found a thin shirt to put on, and then sat down obediently on the edge of the bed.

Ye Wanqing parted his hair into several strands, held a dry towel in one hand, picked up his hair with the other, and wiped it gently.

Chu Anlan raised his chin happily.

If he were a cat, he would probably have started snoring happily.

He closed his eyes and asked, "Qing'er, I heard from the guards outside the Dali Temple that you went to pick me up, right?"

"Yeah." Ye Wanqing wiped the roots of his hair patiently: "I went to the Ministry of Justice first, then to the Dali Temple Prison, and there... I met Lu Jilian."

"I heard about it." Chu Anlan snorted, "I heard that after you left, he stood under the locust tree outside the inner prison gate for half an hour, tsk..."

Ye Wanqing's movements were slightly hesitant: "Won't the prince be angry if I see him?"

"Angry?" Chu Anlan tilted his head: "You made him lose face, why should I be angry? I just like to see the hypocritical appearance of a gentleman being shattered. It's a pity that I didn't see it with my own eyes, otherwise I would have gone up to him and said a few words to make him angry to death." Ye Wanqing chuckled: "Don't you worry, my prince, before you make him angry to death, he has already made you angry first?"

Chu Anlan snorted, "In terms of talent and learning, I am not as good as Lu Jilian, but when it comes to ways to irritate people, I have plenty of ways."

"The prince is really amazing." Ye Wanqing agreed casually.

"Am I not good at other things?" Chu Anlan turned his head, his eyes burning: "Qing'er, are you... still in pain?"

Ye Wanqing was slightly startled and exerted force on her hands.

"Hiss..." Chu Anlan cried out in pain: "Qing'er, you can't pull it like this, I will become bald."

“Sorry…” Ye Wanqing quickly withdrew her hand, her expression somewhat unnatural: “Tell me what happened in the Dali Temple Prison.

What did the prince ask you when he took you away?
Also, how is Prince Duan doing? How are Xiaoyan and Fuyu? How are the others?"

Chu Anlan took the handkerchief and threw it aside: "If I tell you everything, will you give me a reward?"

In the dim bed curtains, Ye Wanqing's cheeks were slightly red. "In another two hours, it will be daybreak. After daybreak, the prince will have to accompany me back home."

"Just once..." Chu Anlan took her hand and whispered flatteringly: "I'll try to be faster so that you can sleep well."

Ye Wanqing was vague: "Hmm..."

"I'll take it as your promise."

The bed curtain swayed slightly, and the young man, whose body was as hot as fire, pressed down on her, no longer caring what time it was outside.

The lights outside the screen were blown out by the night wind, and the pale sky light shone into the room through the window.

When the sky was just getting light, a sudden storm came, blowing off the delicate petals of the roses in the courtyard, filling the whole yard with fragrance...

early morning.

At daybreak, there was a gentle knock on the door of the room.

Qianxi's voice sounded softly outside the room: "Princess, Prince, it's time to get up. Today is the day when the princess returns home."

Ye Wanqing opened her eyes.

Beside him, Chu Anlan was sleeping soundly.

She moved her aching body and tried to stand up, but she gasped when she was pulled away.

Hearing the noise, Chu Anlan opened his eyes hazily.

Seeing her face clearly, Chu Anlan reached out and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly: "I'm sleepy... Stay with me for a while longer..."

Perhaps because he didn't sleep well, his voice was very nasal.

Ye Wanqing's body was pressed against him, with only two thin layers of clothes between them. The boy's skin was burning like fire.

She had never hugged anyone so closely before.

Being so close, it was inevitable that he was also touched by the burning heat from Chu Anlan's body.

She glanced outside the bed curtain and said, "Sir, it's getting late. We have to go back home this morning. My parents and brother are waiting for us to have breakfast together."

Chu Anlan didn't move.

Ye Wanqing poked him again: "Prince?"

Chu Anlan then groaned and opened his eyes reluctantly: "Qing'er, I'm so sleepy, I can't get up."

Ye Wanqing smiled: "Then I will change clothes for the prince?"

Chu Anlan groaned again and buried his head in the soft quilt: "Let me lie there for another half a cup of tea."

Ye Wanqing curved her eyes and said, "Okay, I'll wake the prince up later."

No one answered her.

When she turned her head to look, Chu Anlan had already fallen asleep.

Her thin lips were slightly parted, and her already beautiful face looked as if covered with a layer of peach powder, making her look infinitely gorgeous.
