Qin Zhao's face was extremely hot, and she didn't know whether it was from shame, embarrassment, or heat. In short, it was a sweet torment. She would rather have a stomachache like she did just now than dare not make a move in front of a beautiful man.
It was okay for Xiao Ce to be behind her at first, but Xiao Ce was really meticulous when he waited on her to take a bath, and he even didn't let her go in front of him.
Qin Zhao tried her best to hide under the water of petals. She couldn't avoid Xiao Ce's touch, and she didn't know where to turn her eyes, so she just stared at Xiao Ce's face.
Looking at it, she found that Xiao Ce's lower jaw seemed to be too tight, and his thin lips were pressed into a straight line, but his expression was as usual. She didn't see anything strange, but there was sweat on his forehead...
She wanted to take a closer look, but Xiao Ce suddenly said: "I'm waiting for you outside."
Qin Zhao only had time to see the corner of Xiao Ce's clothes flash past, and Xiao Ce was no longer in the clean room.
She blinked, wondering why Xiao Ce was so fast? In the blink of an eye, the person was gone.
She breathed a sigh of relief. Just now she was so embarrassed that she wished she could get into the tub.
As soon as Xiao Ce walked away, Qin Zhao happily took a flower petal bath. She was reluctant to come out until Xiao Ce's voice came from outside: "Zhao Zhao, are you ready?"
Qin Zhao hurriedly responded: "Okay, okay."
She hurriedly put on her middle coat, made sure there was nothing wrong with it, and then walked out of the clean room.
Xiao Ce was sitting on the stool, looking at the Yangjiao palace lantern in a daze. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he was distracted.
A faint fragrance of soap locust spreads into Xiao Ce's nose with the breeze, and Xiao Ce realizes that Qin Zhao has finished washing.
As he turned his eyes, he saw a beauty in white clothes walking towards him. Her clothes were thin, and her collar was a bit wide, revealing her snow-white skin, and the scenery on her chest was vaguely visible.
He looked away as if nothing had happened, found a coat and put it on her body, wrapping her tightly, especially the neckline, which was pulled tightly.
Qin Zhao was a little puzzled. She was obviously going to sleep later, so what was he going to do?
However, she quickly realized that Xiao Ce was not interested in ordering her to sleep with him, and he definitely did not mean to sleep in the same bed with her.
Thinking about it this way, there was no need for her to be nervous.
"Little Atom hasn't taken a bath yet. If Your Majesty is free, can you help Little Atom take a bath and then rest?" Qin Zhao didn't know whether Xiao Ce would stay overnight in Jinyang Palace, so he stopped guessing.
After all, it is a good thing for Xiao Ce to spend more time with his son. After all, they are father and son.
The most regretful thing about Xiao Ce's previous life was probably that he left too early, when his children were still too young.
"Yeah." Xiao Ce is not a talkative person, he talks very little, and it is the same now.
While bathing Little Atom, Qin Zhao took a look from afar. She noticed that Xiao Ce's eyes looked at Little Atom with rare tenderness, and he was also very attentive and considerate when bathing the child.
It was a simple matter like taking a bath, but he seemed to be dealing with a work of art.
She looked at it, feeling a little sad for no reason.
Speaking of which, Xiao Ce was a lonely man in his previous life, right? When she traveled through time, he had been lonely for a long time. Later, the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Guo passed away, and he was not close to her either.
He is always high and alone, and no one can enter his heart.
Anyway, she had never felt such tenderness from him before his death.
While Qin Zhao was thinking wildly, Xiao Ce finally helped Little Atom take a bath alone. When the big one and the little one came out of the clean room holding hands, Qin Zhao couldn't help but sigh that the Creator is so amazing.
The two father and son are so similar in appearance and temperament, and she is lucky enough to be the person closest to them.
Qin Zhao's eyebrows were crescent, he hugged the little guy and kissed him on the top of his head: "Son, sleep with me tonight, okay?"
Xiao Atom nodded shyly, feeling very happy in his heart.
Xiao Ce watched clearly from the side, because he was holding Xiao Atom, and the collar of Qin Zhao's clothes was opened again. From his perspective, he could see the scenery hidden inside, which made people's hearts itch.
"Is the child still sleeping with you when he is so old?" The emperor, who always said little, spoke with confusion.
Qin Zhao looked up at him and felt that there was a depth in Xiao Ce's eyes that she couldn't understand.
"How old is he? He's less than two years old." Qin Zhao disagreed.
It was getting late, so she took her child to bed alone.
From the corner of her eye, she saw Xiao Ce entering the clean room, and soon he came out covered in mist. He was already tall and had long legs, and he was very imposing. Because he had just showered, he had some moisture on his body, which made him look even more manly.
Delicate and delicious.
Qin Zhao couldn't help but take another look. She moved her son in and made room for Xiao Ce to sleep.
She was only thankful that her bed was big enough, otherwise it would not be able to sleep a family of three.
When Xiao Ce was lying on the outside, she would glance at the man with his eyes slightly closed from time to time. His eyelashes were so long that it made people jealous. This was probably the legendary eyelash essence.
Because it was a side face, his nose bridge was straight and his lips were sexy, which made her feel a little hot looking at him.
She heard her heartbeat getting louder and louder, so she had to look away, and then the frantic heartbeat gradually calmed down.
It didn't take long for her to fall asleep, and she subconsciously put the child into her arms. The little one struggled to no avail, and finally had no choice but to let Qin Zhao hold it.
Xiao Ce closed his eyes and fell asleep for a while, then opened his eyes when he heard that there was gradually no movement inside.
Qin Zhao's face was facing his direction, quiet and peaceful, and he looked very well-behaved, completely different from the publicity and Mingyan in his previous life.
He carefully reached out his hand and touched her soft cheek for a long time.
When he came to his senses, he realized someone was looking at him.
His eyes were fixed on the child's face, and the child blinked at him before closing his eyes and sleeping.
The corners of Xiao Ce's lips were slightly upward, and the curvature was almost invisible, but it returned to normal in an instant.
When Qin Zhao got up the next day, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and of course Xiao Ce was nowhere to be seen.
She stood up in a daze, remembering what happened after Xiao Ce came over last night, and thought to herself that this was really what Xiao Ce would have done in his previous life.
That man's life was extremely boring and monotonous.
Now when I think back to the way I chased Xiao Ce in my previous life, I feel incredible.
"Are you thinking about the emperor?" Bao Zhu noticed Qin Zhao was distracted again and asked in a low voice.
On the surface, there seems to be nothing wrong with the empress, but occasionally she becomes distracted, which she has never experienced before.
It seems that the empress has become like this since she came back from Yangxin Palace last time.
And she found that the emperor was different. In the past, the emperor was very kind to the empress, but now the emperor is very coercive. I wonder if it is because of this, the empress is not as natural and friendly when facing the emperor.
The emperor seemed to be reserved and polite when facing his empress, and never made any intimate gestures.
