The curtain moved slightly.
Under the dim candlelight, a slender figure was reflected on the translucent curtain. Her silky hair fluttered as she slowly took off her clothes.
She stretched out her hand from inside.
The snow-white fox fur coat was gently placed on the soft chair at the head of the bed.
She was currently in the other room next to the study.
Both rooms were connected. There was only a half-moon-shaped curtain separating them.
The exquisite soft couch was not far from the bed.
Every time Second Young Miss Qin was tired, she would rest here. She had not returned to her original room for a long time.
Song Ruyue’s back was facing the bed. She sat on the beautiful couch and read quietly under the candlelight.
When she turned around, she could see the delicate figure reflected in the curtain.
After she flipped through a few pages of the book, she turned back to take a look. She asked curiously, “Weimo, why are you sitting there? I thought you were sleepy. You haven’t taken off your socks and skirt, right? Do you need
Mother’s help?”
Qin Weimo’s weak voice immediately came from the curtain. “No need, Mother.
I… I will take it off…
Not long after.
A pair of snow-white stockings landed on the soft chair outside.
Then, the plain white belt and skirt followed.
Finally, she removed the jade hairpin on her head, and her beautiful hair fell around her face.
The delicate figure sitting on the curtain finally lay down slowly and crawled under the blanket.
There was silence in the room.
Song Ruyue sat on the soft couch and continued to read quietly.
Outside the house, Zhu’er and Qiu’er’s faces were pale with fear. They went weak at the knees and almost fell.
When it was close to midnight.
Song Ruyue seemed a little tired from sitting.
She yawned, stretched, got off the soft couch, and walked toward the bed in the other room.
The two people lying on the bed suddenly tensed up and began to tremble.
Whoosh…
Song Ruyue walked to the bed and blew out the red candle beside the bed.
Then, she looked at the bed and reached out her hand as if she wanted to pull open the curtain to take a look. However, halfway through, she retracted her hand and muttered to herself, “Weimo slept so soundly tonight. She actually didn’t cough… I’d better not wake her up…
With that, she turned around and walked toward the door.
Under the blanket, the two tense bodies began to relax slowly.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Song Ruyue—who was about to walk to the door —suddenly stopped and muttered to herself, “Why don’t… I sleep on Weimo’s bed tonight? That girl is already asleep. I’ll secretly climb onto her bed. It should be fine. She won’t know.’
The two who were curled up under the blanket trembled again and tensed up.
“Forget it, forget it. I’ll sleep on the beauty couch. The beauty couch is specially prepared for beauties…”
Song Ruyue went over and gently opened the door. She whispered to the maidservants who were still guarding outside dutifully, “Go back to sleep. I’ll sleep here tonight. I’ll go back by myself tomorrow morning.”
The maidservants immediately heaved a sigh of relief. They bowed and left silently.
Song Ruyue looked at Qiu’er and Zhu’er and said, “Go to the side room and sleep too. There’s no need to keep watch. Weimo slept very quietly tonight and didn’t cough. I’ll watch over her in the room.”
Qiu’er and Zhu’er quickly lowered their heads and said, “Yes, Madam.”
When Song Ruyue closed the door and returned to the bed, the two maidservants’ legs went weak and they almost fell to the ground.
The two of them supported each other and went to the room opposite. At the same time, they thought to themselves, “What should I do? What should I do? Sir is still inside… ”
Song Ruyue returned to the beauty couch and lay down on her side. She pulled a velvet blanket from the side and covered herself with it.
Soon, she closed her eyes.
Silence returned to the room.
A thick red candle was still burning silently on the table in the corner.
On the bed, under the soft and hazy curtain.
The two of them huddled under the blanket and looked at each other before avoiding the other party’s gazes.
The girl’s face was flushed red. Her eyes sparkled. In the darkness, she looked shy and mesmerizing.
Her dress had already been taken off, and she was only wearing a moon-white undergarment, revealing her snow-white shoulders and collarbones. Her soft and delicate feet were placed unnaturally, touching the young man’s calf beside her.
Her hair was like soft silk as it spread out beneath the two of them.
The two of them lay there, not daring to move.
After a long time.
It was still silent outside.
Luo Qingzhou, who was stiff and motionless because of being in the same position all this while, finally moved his body carefully and looked at the shy girl beside him.
A charming fragrance and the girl’s hot breath assaulted his face.
Luo Qingzhou whispered, “She should be asleep… I’ll…
Her hand that was under the blanket suddenly covered his mouth.
Song Ruyue’s voice suddenly came from the couch outside. “Weimo, did you speak just now? Are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to come in and take a look at you?”
Luo Qingzhou’s heart skipped a beat, and his body stiffened again.
The girl’s small hand was still covering his mouth. She shook her head slightly at him. She did not respond to her mother’s question.
After a while.
Song Ruyue’s muttering came from outside. “It’s really strange tonight. This girl didn’t cough at all. Did those medicines finally work? God bless her…”
The girl’s eyelashes fluttered as she bit her lower lip gently. Her face was red as she moved her head inward and pressed it against his neck.
She did not remove her hand, so her hand was still covering his mouth.
Luo Qingzhou did not dare to move.
It was quiet outside.
Outside the window, the cold wind was still howling, and snowflakes were falling.
The night quietly passed.
At dawn.
In Moonlight Rain Court, a figure braved the snow and sneaked to the lake. She looked around before walking to the lake. Her face was filled with disappointment as she pouted and muttered, “He’s not here.”
She stood by the lake for a while before walking to the corner. She untied the belt around her slender waist and took off her clothes, revealing a fair and slender girl’s body.
Plop!
She jumped into the warm lake and closed her eyes, letting out a sigh of contentment.
After soaking for a while, she lay on the rock where Luo Qingzhou often lay in the shallow water and closed her eyes in enjoyment.
After a while, she opened her eyes again and sighed. She muttered, “It’s a pity that Sir didn’t come. If not, I could have joined him in the water and… Pfft, pfft, pfft. I don’t want it! I want to be a pure and tender flower forever. I don’t want to be dirtied by the lecherous Sir!”
Not long after.
Another cold figure came to the lake silently with a sword in her hand.
She suddenly heard the sound of water splashing in the corner. Her eyes narrowed as she tightened her grip on the sword in her hand. She walked around the flowerbed at the side and craned her neck to peek into the lake.
A snow-white figure was lying on a rock in the water. Her hands were moving restlessly in the water, and her body was gently twisting, as if she was a fish.
Other than her, there was no other figure.
The cold girl hiding in the bushes exhaled softly. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly frowned and continued to wait patiently. She looked at the entrance in the distance.
The cold wind howled, and snowflakes fluttered.
The girl held a cold sword in her hand. She squatted in the bushes and waited motionlessly.
He told her to come here often to bathe.
Bai Ling said that he actually wanted to peek at her body, so he instigated her to bathe there.
But would he peek at her?
Even if he wanted to peek, he would only peek at Bai Ling, right?
The girl thought in a daze among the flowers until Bai Ling went ashore and suddenly discovered her.
“Chanchan, why are you squatting here? You scared me. You… Are you here to peek at me bathing? Little Chanchan, so this is the kind of person you are!”
After Bai Ling discovered Xia Chan, she did not even put on her clothes. She hugged Xia Chan and threw a tantrum, wanting to drag her back into the water.
She only stopped when she saw Xia Chan’s face turn pale and her body tremble.
“Chanchan, I am here, don’t be afraid of the water. Look at you, you are so terrified! The water is shallow here, and there are many rocks inside, you can stand on them.”
“If you don’t learn how to enter the water, hehehe, you won’t be able to play in the water with Sir in the future…
The cold figure broke away from her and left quickly.
Not long after.
She arrived outside the small courtyard and stared blankly at the closed courtyard door for a while. Then, she silently walked under the roof and stood there alone with her sword in her arms.
She stood there until dawn.
Luo Qingzhou did not feel sleepy at all.
The girl in his arms did not seem to be asleep. Her face was tomato red.
The two of them did not dare to speak or move. They could only wait for dawn to arrive in this awkward position.
At dawn.
Song Ruyue, who was lying on the beautiful couch outside, finally got up and sat in the dark for a while before getting off the couch. She went over to open the door and left quietly.
Silence returned to the room.
After a while.
Luo Qingzhou finally heaved a sigh of relief and said softly to the girl in his arms, “Second Young Miss, your mother has left.. ‘
The girl leaned into his arms, breathing evenly and motionlessly.
“She’s asleep?’
Luo Qingzhou gently moved her head and arms away and carefully got up. He opened the curtain and got out of bed. Just as he was about to take the opportunity to leave, he suddenly heard light footsteps at the door.
He widened his eyes, and he immediately returned to the bed and crawled under the blanket.
The door was pushed open.
Song Ruyue returned and laid back down on the couch. Soon, she quieted down again.
Luo Qingzhou groaned inwardly..
