Chapter 134 Kissed Me Once

Wen Jiayue was a little hesitant to go in.

Shen Fuhan was taking a shower. Why would he ask her to go in at this time?

Thinking of this, she said softly, "Guard Ling, why don't you go in for me?"

Ling He said, "The Marquis said to send the Madam."

His expression left no room for negotiation, as if he would push her in without hesitation if she didn't go in soon.

Wen Jiayue felt a chill run down her spine and had no choice but to go into the bedroom.

As soon as he stepped inside, Ling He closed the door without hesitation.

Wen Jiayue sighed and cautiously stood three steps away from the washroom.

"My lord, what is it?"

"I forgot my clothes; they're on the tatami."

His voice came from the misty washroom, as if it too were tinged with moisture.

Wen Jiayue pursed her lips and said, "Then I'll have Guard Ling bring it to you."

Shen Fuhan immediately spoke up: "Why did you have someone else deliver it when you were here?"

“I…” Wen Jiayue hesitated, “Why don’t I go out first? There’s no one in the room anyway, so the Marquis can come out and get it himself.”

Shen Fuhan asked calmly, "What are you afraid of?"

After struggling for a moment, Wen Jiayue walked to the long couch and picked up the neatly folded undergarments.

It was something she could easily do; she shouldn't be that afraid.

Moreover, since Shen Fuhan was in the bathtub, she only needed to open the door, put her undergarments in the bathroom, and she could come out immediately.

With that in mind, Wen Jiayue mustered her courage and knocked on the door.

"My lord, I'm coming in."

Hearing Shen Fuhan's reply, she then pushed open the door.

The steam that filled the room immediately rushed out, instantly turning their faces wet.

Wen Jiayue subconsciously closed her eyes, and only after the fog dissipated a bit did she look inside.

There were no tables or cabinets on either side, so she could only walk further in.

She glanced at the bathtub and was about to walk in the opposite direction when Shen Fuhan suddenly spoke up: "Just give it to me."

He held out his hand.

Water droplets covered his strong arms and slid down with his movements.

Her gaze lingered for a moment, landing on his face.

Enveloped in mist and heat, Shen Fuhan appeared less aloof and indifferent, and more tender.

In a daze, she couldn't help but recall the only time she had indulged herself in the bathroom in her past life, and his expression seemed to be similar to this moment.

Wen Jiayue immediately became alert; she couldn't let him deceive her.

"Let's just put it on the table."

"Why go through all this trouble when you can just reach out and touch it?"

Shen Fuhan did not withdraw his hand. Wen Jiayue estimated the distance and it was indeed as he had said.

She handed him the undergarment, but after a moment, Shen Fuhan did not take it.

Wen Jiayue looked up in surprise, only then realizing that there was still a little distance between them.

Seeing that she didn't move, Shen Fuhan said, "If you don't mind, I can walk up to you."

Wen Jiayue couldn't help but glare at him, and had no choice but to take a small step forward.

Once he had the clothes, she immediately withdrew her hand.

Shen Fuhan hadn't planned to do anything in the first place, but seeing her like this, he asked in a low voice, "Are you so wary of me?"

Wen Jiayue thought silently, "It's good that you know. Just don't try anything with her in the future."

She didn't answer, nor did she linger; she turned and walked towards the door.

Before she even opened the door, she heard the sound of rushing water behind her, and she almost slipped and fell.

He wanted to get out of the bath before she even left the house, so there was no need to be so formal.

Wen Jiayue fled as if she were escaping, quickly pushing open the door and then closing it again.

After thinking for a moment, she left the bedroom.

Ruyi was waiting to the side and said, "Madam, lunch is ready."

Wen Jiayue nodded.

Ruyi glanced at her and whispered, "Madam, why don't you go inside first?"

"what happened?"

“Your face has turned red,” Ruyi coughed, “it’s quite noticeable.”

Wen Jiayue hadn't felt anything at first, but upon hearing her words, she instantly felt her face burning.

She explained, "It's from the steam inside!"

This statement felt like a blatant attempt to cover something up, and Ruyi didn't believe it at all, laughing and saying, "Alright, alright, Madam, please go back to your room first."

Wen Jiayue patted her face and went back, pretending to be calm.

Shen Fuhan has come out and is getting dressed.

With just one glance, she caught a glimpse of his back: broad shoulders, narrow waist, tall and upright.

Wen Jiayue withdrew her gaze, did not enter the inner room, and poured herself a cup of tea.

Shen Fuhan asked, "Has lunch been served yet?"

"Yes, we're just waiting for the Marquis to arrive."

"Let's go."

No one mentioned what had just happened, as if it had never occurred.

After lunch, Shen Fuhan was called out by the guards, and Wen Jiayue prepared to rest for the afternoon.

While she was half asleep, she felt a soft, warm touch on her face and opened her eyes with a frown.

Seeing that she was awake, Shen Fuhan showed no embarrassment at being caught stealing a kiss; instead, he kissed her even more passionately.

"Well……"

Wen Jiayue instantly sobered up and pushed him away with both hands.

Shen Fuhan did not persist, pecked her lips and then pulled away slightly.

"Finally woke up?"

Seeing that he didn't make any further moves, Wen Jiayue felt relieved and glared at him: "I'm not asleep yet."

"Really?" Shen Fuhan said unhurriedly, "I thought you were sleeping soundly and had to wake you up this way."

Wen Jiayue was taken aback: "Why did you wake me up?"

"The plans have changed. We'll head to the temple in fifteen minutes."

Wen Jiayue asked, "Are we going to stay at the temple tonight?"

The temple is on a mountain, and it would take at least an hour to climb to the top. It wouldn't be worth it to make the round trip today.

Shen Fuhan nodded.

Wen Jiayue immediately sat up: "Then let's go."

The expectation in her eyes was so obvious that it made her almond-shaped eyes sparkle like stars.

Shen Fuhan looked away, somewhat confused as to whether she was looking forward to the temple trip or relieved to have escaped another disaster tonight.

After getting ready, Wen Jiayue and Shen Fuhan got into the carriage.

Having been in Yuzhou for several days, this was her first real trip, and she couldn't help but feel excited.

Although Shen Fuhan had his own important business to attend to, she couldn't interfere, so she didn't think too much about it and just treated it as if she was out having fun.

However, she asked again.

"My lord, can you really promise to stay with me forever?"

Shen Fuhan hadn't expected her to repeat herself, and said in a deep voice, "Is this answer that important to you?"

Wen Jiayue frowned and said, "If you can't guarantee it, I can still get off the bus now."

"……I promise."

Shen Fuhan paused for a moment: "But what are you going to offer me in exchange?"

"What in exchange?"

"My time belongs to you, so naturally I should ask for some benefits in return."

Shen Fuhan whispered seductively in her ear.

"Give me a kiss and I'll stay by your side forever."
