I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating - Chapter 182

182 Not…Not Scared

“I…” Ji Zhao didn’t know how to explain.

Her hesitant attitude made Shen Yao’s heart ache unconsciously.

“It’s late. Rest early!” Shen Yao gently let go of her shoulder. His tone was as gentle as ever, but Ji Zhao could still hear the loneliness hidden in his tone.

However, she really did not know what to say.

!!
Her culinary skills were superb because she was a 21st century descendant of an imperial chef;

She knew how to read and write because of her educational background, she had graduated with an undergraduate degree.

She could write well because she was a calligraphy enthusiast.

“Wait.” Ji Zhao hurriedly walked in front of him and stopped him from leaving. “Shen Yao, it’s not that I don’t trust you.”

“On the contrary, I trust you very much.” Ji Zhao looked into his eyes and said seriously, “From the moment we expressed our feelings to each other, my trust in you has never been lacking. You just asked me why I could write so well. I hesitated to answer, not because I didn’t trust you, but because I didn’t know how to say it.”

“I think someone as smart as you must know that the me standing in front of you at this moment is very different from the Ji Ah Tao from Pomegranate Village. You can even say that they are two completely different people. I can explain these things clearly,” Ji Zhao said softly. “Shen Yao, I can share my secrets with you, but have you thought it through? Are you really prepared to know these secrets?”

Facing Ji Zhao’s question, Shen Yao fell silent.

He had always felt that he was very brave, but at this moment, he was afraid.

“Ah Tao, if you tell me your secret, will it affect you?”

“I don’t know.”

Ji Zhao shook her head blankly.

“Shen Yao, actually, I’m not from your dynasty. The real Ji Ah Tao is dead, and I’m Ji Zhao.”

Rumble!

As soon as Ji Zhao finished speaking, a sharp bolt of lightning suddenly flashed by the window.

Thunder rumbled as flames shot in all directions.

At this moment, Ji Zhao suddenly fainted.

“Ah Tao!” Shen Yao quickly held her and called out anxiously!

Unfortunately, he was met with silence.

11pm.

Shen Yao stayed by Ji Zhao’s side and held her right hand tightly, not daring to relax at all.

At this moment, he really regretted it!

Why was he curious about the Ah Tao’s hidden secret?

If he hadn’t been curious, perhaps Ah Tao wouldn’t have fainted, let alone have a fever.

He was the main culprit behind all of this…

Shen Yao closed his eyes in pain. He did not dare to imagine what would happen if he lost Ah Tao…

“Shen Yao?” Ji Zhao opened her eyes and saw Shen Yao with red eyes. Her heart ached. “What’s wrong?”

“Ah Tao, you’re awake?” Shen Yao stood up excitedly. “Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Are you hungry? Are you thirsty?”

“I’m fine.” Ji Zhao struggled to sit up.

Shen Yao immediately placed a pillow behind her waist.

“Thank you.” Ji Zhao smiled gratefully. “I feel much better.”

“I’m sorry.” Shen Yao lowered his eyes guiltily.

“Why are you apologizing?” Ji Zhao was puzzled.

“If I hadn’t insisted on asking, you wouldn’t have suddenly fainted.” Shen Yao felt even more guilty. “Ah Tao, I won’t do this again.”

“You’re so silly!” Ji Zhao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You didn’t do anything wrong, so you don’t have to apologize.”

“But…”

“No buts!” Ji Zhao said forcefully. “Shen Yao, actually, I can understand your thoughts. If I were in your shoes, I would definitely be more curious than you.”

After all, a woman whose reputation had already been ruined could actually undergo such a drastic change.

“Shen Yao, I really want to tell you some of my secrets, but I can’t. You’ve seen the consequences just now, haven’t you?” Ji Zhao gently grabbed his broad palm and explained softly, “I think when the time is right, you’ll definitely be able to understand these secrets.”

“Okay.”

Ji Zhao smiled sweetly and moved further in, leaving a lot of space for him. “Can you sleep with me?”

Shen Yao looked away uncomfortably. “I suddenly remembered that Chenchen still has some homework for me to check.”

“Ah Tao, I’ll leave first. It’s late. You should rest early too. Remember to cover yourself with the blanket.”

“Wait a minute!”

Ji Zhao stopped him again and asked curiously, “Shen Yao, are you… incapable?”

“Huh?!” Shen Yao was shocked. “Ah Tao, why do you say that?”

“It’s… intuition, I guess?” Ji Zhao blurted out subconsciously.

Shen Yao silently walked around her, then quickly closed the door and bolted it.

Suddenly, he turned around, picked up Ji Zhao bridal style, and walked step by step into the wide double bed.

Ji Zhao could feel her heartbeat accelerating!

“Ah Tao, you took the initiative to provoke me.” Shen Yao carefully placed her on the bed and leaned close to her ear. He nibbled her earlobe and breathed softly.

Ji Zhao’s shoulders shrank uncomfortably, and she became even more nervous.

Until Shen Yao’s kiss landed on her lips!

At some point in time, their clothes had already been piled up on the ground—

Ji Zhao hugged his shoulders nervously and closed her eyes tightly, not daring to open them.

With his hands on both sides of her shoulders, the smile in Shen Yao’s eyes deepened.

“Ah Tao, are you afraid?” He teased deliberately. “If Ah Tao is really afraid, I’ll leave first, okay?”

Ji Zhao became even more nervous. Her butterfly-like eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.

“I’m… I’m not afraid…”

There was an obvious tremor in her voice.

Shen Yao tapped the tip of her nose affectionately. Then, he pulled the thin blanket over and covered Ji Zhao. He said goodnight to her and left.

Ji Zhao only dared to open he reyes when the door was closed.

After looking around and confirming that she was the only one left in the room, Ji Zhao silently patted her chest and panted heavily.

She was really a little scared just now…

However, she did not expect Shen Yao’s reaction to be like this.

At the same time, Shen Yao had already rushed into the small room beside the main room and took a cold bath. Only then did he suppress the heat below his navel.

He had sensed the nervousness and fear hidden in Ah Tao’s emotions just now.

He didn’t want to force her, so he returned in defeat.

What he hoped for was for their bodies and souls to be completely familiar.

Instead of being together at all costs for the sake of so-called lust.
