Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 168.4: Should Be Considered A Date

Li Hong Yuan walked in front, carefully pulling her along as they advanced. Originally, as one with outstanding martial art skills, and one that exercised all year round, their foothold very steady, steeling their guts, they can just effortlessly walk over. Yet, the two of them held their hands together, walking with the feeling of great difficulty instead. In the end, it was all just them attending to the other.

Jing Wan couldn’t see ahead, so every step all followed along Li Hong Yuan’s footsteps. One time, she stepped a bit slanted, and to the side, there also just happened to be moss, her foot slipping, about to fall downward. “Careful—–” Li Hong Yuan exerted strength, rapidly turning around, embracing Jing Wan’s waist, and naturally also went down along with. However, the height of the gap was actually just less than two feet. Based on Li Hong Yuan’s martial art skills, he won’t let the two of them both fall into the water. By the time his two legs submerged into the waters, he’d already firmly embraced Jing Wan into his arms, and Jing Wan naturally just embraced his neck, her face sticking to him, their breaths touching. Jing Wan slightly blushed, thinking to herself: ‘Could it be that this guy was being deliberate?’

As for whether or not it was deliberate, that was just something only Li Hong Yuan knew.

Since his shoes and the hem of his clothes were both drenched, then there weren’t any misgivings anymore, holding Jing Wan as he directly went across through the waters.

The remaining two-thirds of the journey was much faster than the first third of the way.

And in a relatively deep part of the forest, a pair of demon-like eyes fixedly stared at the extremely intimate pair, getting restless multiple times, wanting to struggle free from the bindings of her rationality, having the two of them torn into pieces.

The servant girl next to her appeared to be calmly standing there, just her two hands were faintly trembling somewhat, revealing her true feelings.

“Return.” Just one word, like her voice had broken, hoarse and unpleasant.

She merely was in a bad mood, wanting to come out for a while, yet she witnessed such a scene. As expected, it was because of her(JW), that’s why he was like that towards her(RFF). Those in the past, she’d never seen him voluntarily approach in the slightest, or care about in the least. Yet this one right now, he carefully shielded like that. Just because she was his fiancee? Falling for her after getting engaged?

Who the hell are you deceiving? Li Hong Yuan, you decieved everyone, schemed against everyone, even using me, just for her, just for her sake, right? Good, very good, I want to have you all chopped into thousands of pieces. No, since you care about her that much, I want to let you personally witness how she will be disgraced and humiliated by others, letting her become filthy and lowly, and see whether or not you will still care for her.

However, right now, should first repay you. If this succeeds, naturally it’s good, if not, it doesn’t matter either.

Climbing up onto the shore, he had Jing Wan placed down. She’d only gotten splashed a few drops of water, so completely unnoticeable. “Wangye, how about going back first? With the clothes wet, it’ll definitely be uncomfortable wearing them.”

“It’s fine, there will naturally be people going back to fetch clothes for this prince.” Following him, would one not even have this bit of perceptiveness? “Let’s go.” This time, he directly held Jing Wan’s hand. Just, as they were leaving, he slightly narrowed his eyes and glanced towards a certain place.

The meadow was verdant, even having some wild flowers mixed in, the color also rather rich and gorgeous.

Along the side of the creek, Jing Wan broke off a piece of tree branch, waving it around in hand for fun, slightly lost in thought.

“What is Jiao Jiao thinking about?” Li Hong Yuan asked.

“Wangye……..”

“En?”

“Actually, this subject isn’t too used to you calling this subject Jiao Jiao.” Actually, not being used to was still the secondary reason. It was still mainly because it’ll make her unconsciously recall the origins of this address, the embarrassment level off the charts.

“Then how do you want me to call you?”

Jing Wan pondered for a moment, “Just Jing Wan then.”

“Okay.” Li Hong Yuan unhesitantly nodded.

This indulgent feeling of ‘it is whatever you say it is’, can we not be like this?

“You still haven’t told me what you were thinking about just now.” Li Hong Yuan seemed as if he didn’t detect her little conflict just now.

“Was just thinking, in past years at this time, this subject should be at the estate in Qi’an Fu, running around carefreely, going into the waters to catch fish, climbing trees to pick fruits, and entering the forest to hunt, making oneself dirty head to toe, just like a wild girl. However, grandmother has never restricted me. She says, for girls, it was only those years prior to marrying that were the happiest. That’s why, after learning what one should learn, the rest of the time, just did whatever made one happy.” That kind of carefree days really made one especially reminisce.

“Why did you want to say this?”

“What?” Jing Wan didn’t understand.

“Why tell me these? Don’t young ladies all like to pay close attention to being virtuous, gentle, and dignified?”

Jing Wan smiled, “Wangye cares very much? Then what to do, wangye won’t disdain me like this, right?” Towards this bit, Jing Wan actually didn’t care all that much. Even if one said she lacked manners, behaving against convention, so what? In the future, even if she can’t behave wantonly like in the past, she ultimately was never a true obedient baby anyways, and can’t just live her days wearing a disguise the whole time.

“This prince is very happy.”

“En?” She was completely unable to follow his train of thought.

“Jing Wan can just stay this way. Even if you marry this prince, you can still be this way. If you’re uncomfortable in the qinwang manor, you can go to the estate. No matter how long you want to stay, it all isn’t a problem, and you can play however you want.”

However, Jing Wan was somewhat unmoved. After becoming the wangfei, how can she be that carefree. To be able to let her do as she pleased in the qinwang manor was already not bad.

Jing Wan didn’t believe, and Li Hong Yuan didn’t emphasize either. When that time comes, she will eventually realize.

Hearing slight movements from behind, Jing Wan turned to look. This speed really was sufficiently quick. “Wangye, first have the clothes changed.”

Li Hong Yuan nodded, his gaze sweeping across her fingertips.

Just to the side, they randomly found an empty spot, putting up a curtained screen. No need for servants, Li Hong Yuan quickly changed his clothes.

Despite facing with her back, that slight rubbing sound of his clothes unsurprisingly made her recall that perfect body, as she uncontrollably blushed a little. Jing Wan patted her face. This was becoming more and more like a lustful girl.

If not for Jing Wan being present, Li Hong Yuan simply wouldn’t have used a screen. Even so, it still just barely covered up to his chest. Thus, Jing Wan’s movements, as well as those bright red ears, he all observed into his eyes.

However, teasing her right now at this place and at this time will definitely make her fly into her rage out of embarrassment. It won’t be good to spoil the nice atmosphere. Thus, he could only pretend to not see.

After changing, he lightly walked up to Jing Wan from behind, “Done.”

Being that close to her ears, seemingly sensing the warm air brushing by, Jing Wan was greatly startled.

Li Hong Yuan softly laughed, “Guts this timid.”

Bastard, was this the problem of being timid?

Li Hong Yuan rubbed her face, “The scenery is pretty good, and also shady, want to sit for a while?”

Jing Wan wanted to dodge, but it was already too late, so could only nod.

Afterwards, the curtains Li Hong Yuan used just now to change was spread onto the ground. And thus, Bai Shao and them who were standing nearby didn’t go forward.

Li Hong Yuan very casually sat down, one leg stretched, and one leg bent, propping against one elbow, laying down halfway just like that. He pointed to the position next to him, indicating for Jing Wan to sit down.

Jing Wan sat down, also appearing quite carefree, holding her two knees, watching the slowly flowing creek water, “At Qi’an Fu, going into the waters to catch fish and directly roasting it to eat, haven’t eaten that way in a long time.”

“This is quite simple. —–Mu An, quickly go take care of it.”

“Yes.”

Jing Wan turned to look at him, somewhat between laughter and tears, “How can it be managed at this time?” This made her feel as if she was like a demon consort again, specifically causing trouble for others.

However, Eunuch Mu seemed very eager, and very happy!
