There was no Su Lianxue in Su’s residence anymore. There was only Su Tanning, the pearl of the sea that was found just a few days ago. Su Lianxue seemed to have never existed in the blink of an eye.

There was a difference only when there was a contrast. This true young miss of the general was a collection of thousands of love. Don’t say the people the general known in the court, even the empress living in the palace, the noble consorts, the favored or not favored concubines all sent congratulatory gifts. The noble ladies and daughters who organized the gatherings in the city also visited the door personally to greet and deliver invitation cards, inviting mother Su and young miss Su to do them the honor.

It was actually a little overwhelming for a time.

Although Shen Qi’s face was calm, her heart was still nervous and timid, but if one had her kill someone, she wasn’t afraid. However, if she used Su Tanning’s identity and went to appreciate tea and flowers with these famous family’s daughters, she was actually scared. She knew nothing about the four arts (zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting). The bodies of those noble daughters were delicate and precious, there was nowhere near like hers covered with scars. She was afraid those noble daughters would be like Su Lianxue, looked at her with contempt, and ridiculed her with sarcastic words. Actually, she wasn’t afraid, but only afraid that mother Su would know and grieve.

Shen Qi didn’t say, but mother Su said as if mother knew her daughter: “The entire Chang’an City knows that Little Seven is our family’s treasure. As a mother, I don’t have enough of my treasure. I am unwilling to let Little Seven go out. These days, Little Seven will just accompany her mother. Mother will tell you stories and make delicious food for you.”

Mother Su also naturally considered Little Seven’s interaction and asked her if she had any servant girls that had a familiar relationship with her in Prince Xuan’s palace. They could buy them to accompany her in her courtyard. She also said that the minister of the Cui family had a miss who was sent outside, which was the youngest daughter and was about the same age as Shen Qi. She also had a docile and quiet temperament like her. She was a good child with good companionship. Later, she would let her come often to play at home so Shen Qi would also have a companion.

Shen Qi was very grateful to mother Su for her intentions and arrangements. Although she spoke little, mother Su seemed to have endless words to say to her. If it wasn’t for father Su’s sleepless nights and firmly dragged mother Su back, Shen Qi was afraid mother Su would also want to sleep with her tonight.

Shen Qi was still not used to having others serve her to bathe because she had scars on her body. She wasn’t afraid those little servant girls were scared, but the whole family was worried about her. So Shen Qi finished bathing by herself and put on silk inner clothes which were incense with gardenia fragrance. She took a white towel to cover her half-dry hair and went to rest in bed.

Thinking about what mother Su and she talked about, as well as what they did in the daytime. Shen Qi showed a knowing smile and gradually became drowsy.

The bed sank down one block. Someone was here!

Shen Qi quickly opened her eyes and reached into the pillow. She only held the hilt of the knife hidden under the pillow, but the man held her hand faster than her.

For a moment, it was not known if the man leaned over and Shen Qi smelled the familiar smell on him or the man’s hand that held her hand and she felt the familiar touch. Her originally tense body and nerves relaxed a little, but the action was still maintained and her spine was still stiff.

Shen Qi didn’t speak nor move. The one that came was Shen Zhonghua.

With the rustling sound, Shen Zhonghua stuck over. Under the thin quilt, her clothes were thin, her back pressed closely against his slightly cold brocade clothing which made her pull away a little.

Shen Zhonghua clenched Shen Qi’s little hand, one hand stretched past from beneath her waist and embraced her.

Shen Zhonghua wasn’t intentional, but Shen Qi’s waist was very sensitive. When Shen Zhonghua reached over, she just felt like the delicate place between her legs was hot. There was liquid flowing out and wet her trousers.

“Wangye……” Thinking of the madness that night, Shen Qi’s mouth had difficulty speaking and her cold voice was a little unnatural.

Shen Zhonghua’s outstretched hand that was not light nor heavy on Shen Qi’s waist pinched her a little: “What did you call me?”

“Zhonghua……” Shen Qi corrected her mouth, fearing that if she didn’t do what he wanted, he would force her here and make the servant girl on night duty outside the room hear the movements.

“Good……” Shen Zhonghua reached out and touched Shen Qi’s head then returned to hold her hand again, intertwining her fingers tightly. He probably saw her stiffness and guessed the worries in her heart, so Shen Zhonghua hugged Shen Qi a little more tightly. His chin rested on her neck and said to her: “Don’t be afraid. I’m just hugging you.”

Shen Qi thought to herself, was Shen Zhonghua’s martial arts more advanced so she couldn’t feel his presence, or had she been living herself like a princess for the past two days and relaxed her vigilance since she didn’t know when Shen Zhonghua came?

“I just wanted to see you.” The tip of Shen Zhonghua’s nose gently rubbed against Shen Qi’s neck, sniffing the delicate fragrance on her body and didn’t hide his longing for her at all: “Qiqi, you are not by my side, I really miss you.”

He also added: “How I wish to always hold you like this……”

This kind of Shen Zhonghua, compared to the cold and cruel previous Shen Zhonghua, made Shen Qi shiver even more.

Shen Zhonghua naturally felt it. He kissed Shen Qi’s neck, Shen Qi shrank and shrank. Shen Zhonghua kissed again, kept kissing until Shen Qi no longer curled up or so speaking gave up struggling.

Not knowing when the fiery between his legs stood upright. It was pushing at Shen Qi’s buttocks across the fabric from behind. Shen Qi wanted to pull some distance from him, but Shen Zhonghua embraced her with both hands, his legs wrapped around hers, and refused to let go.

Shen Zhonghua’s tone was affectionate and also helpless as he said: “Qiqi, don’t be afraid of me……”
