Beigong Tengxiao raised his hand and pulled off the quilt covering her head, but she held on to the quilt and shrank tighter, like a very insecure animal, clinging to her last corner.
"I'm waiting for you to wake up."
As he pulled her off, Chu Jiaoli cried louder. Without the quilt, she turned over and buried her head on the bed sheet, not daring to look at him again.
Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, lowered his head and stared at her, saying: "Now you know you are afraid?"
Chu Jiaoli whimpered and said nothing, her whole body shaking.
Beigong Tengxiao looked at the marks on her body, which were like blossoming red plums on the snow. He touched her shoulder, and a wound showed some blood.
He closed his eyes, bowed his head and kissed her wound gently. He was so cruel last night that he almost lost all reason in the end. The two of them were confused and couldn't remember what happened last night.
"Li'er, the medicine hasn't worn off yet." Beigong Tengxiao whispered in her ear.
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli felt a little more relaxed about his approach. As long as he was not completely awake, she had a little bit of luck.
I never thought that one day I would be in such a mess that I didn’t even have the courage to look at him.
Beigong Tengxiao turned her body over. She raised her hands to cover her face, and he pinned her wrists to the pillow.
Beigong Tengxiao leaned over and kissed her white neck, suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Li'er, how much medicine did you give me?"
"I...I didn't let you drink it all..." Chu Jiaoli said in a weak voice, turned away, closed her eyes tightly and didn't look at him.
He looked at her closed eyes and said, "Are you afraid of me?"
Chu Jiaoli seemed to tremble unconsciously when she heard his voice. She bit her lip tightly and said nothing.
Beigong Tengxiao felt a twinge of pain in his heart and said, "Do you know what would have happened last night if I had listened to you? Do you want to know?"
Chu Jiaoli shook her head, with hot tears overflowing from her eyes: "I don't want to..."
Beigong Tengxiao raised his hand to wipe her tears and said: "Do you hate me so much?"
"I didn't..."
"Do you really want me to be with another woman?"
"No..."
"Are you happy if I have a group of wives and concubines? Do you think it doesn't matter to you who I am with?"
"Anyone can!" Chu Jiaoli cried hysterically.
Beigong Tengxiao's eyes were filled with anger: "What did you say?"
"As long as it's not her, it doesn't matter who it is..." Chu Jiaoli's voice trembled fiercely.
Beigong Tengxiao frowned, raised his hand to pinch her chin, and said: "Who? As long as it's not someone?"
"Chu Jiaowei..." Three words slowly escaped from Chu Jiaoli's trembling lips, and she whimpered, "As long as it's not Chu Jiaowei..."
Beigong Tengxiao's thoughts were complicated and he said: "Why do you mention Chu Jiaowei? For your personal grudges, you don't hesitate to give me a few women at will? What do you think of me?"
"Am I wrong?!" Chu Jiaoli opened her eyes and looked at him, and said sternly, "I can't give birth to a child anyway. If you want a child, you have to take a concubine, but Chu Jiaowei can't, she will harm her."
Your..."
Beigong Tengxiao was stunned for a moment, feeling mixed emotions in his heart. But when he heard her tell the reason, his arrogance also dissipated a little.
Chu Jiaoli was sobbing like a child. How could she feel better if she gave him another woman with her own hands?
She lowered her head, her eyes a little distracted, and said, "Your Highness, give up. I can't give birth to a child, so don't do any more unnecessary things."
Beigong Tengxiao hugged her, and gently put his hand on her head to comfort her. After a long time, he said: "It's not a good thing to be too sensible. Li'er, I really feel uncomfortable if you do such a thing.
..."
Chu Jiaoli leaned into his arms and sobbed, "Then what can I do..."
Beigong Tengxiao's eyes were slightly red, and he said: "I don't like children. Children will take away your little love. When I say I want children, I just want more people to protect you."
Chu Jiaoli's crying gradually stopped, and she raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes filled with shock.
"I don't want children. I only like the ones you gave birth to, because they are part of your body. They were not born by you. I don't want them."
"I don't like to enjoy dancing, but I appreciate you."
"I don't like reading, but I like to accompany you."
"I don't like to see Tao Hua Bu Yao. Everything I bring with you is just a foil. I like to see you. If Tao Hua Bu Yao is not with you, what's the point?"
"Your Highness..." Tears overflowed from Chu Jiaoli's eyes again, and a heavy feeling of guilt surged into her heart.
Beigong Tengxiao gave a bitter smile and said, "Do you know why I like to do this with you?" He raised his hand to lift her chin and said, "Only at this time can I be sure that there is something in your eyes.
Me, you love me."
Chu Jiaoli's lips trembled slightly, and her voice became hoarse unconsciously: "I'm sorry, Your Highness..."
"There is only one reason why I would do such a thing with you, and that is because I love you." Bei Gong Tengxiao looked at her, his eyes full of love and concentration, "Chu Jiaoli, I really love you, in this huge world of prosperity
, I only have you in my heart, Chu Jiaoli... I love you so much."
"Your Highness..."
Beigong Tengxiao stroked her cheek and wiped away her tears with his thumb: "Li'er, I don't want your generosity..."
"Li'er, I'm more afraid of you being hurt than me being hurt."
"Li'er, I really hate you for not cherishing yourself."
"Li'er, I want a girl who can cry and laugh, not a dignified and meticulous princess."
"Li'er, I don't want your generosity."
"Li'er, I want you to be jealous."
"Li'er, please, love me more."
"Your Highness, I love you, I really love you very much..." Chu Jiaoli explained hurriedly, her tone full of longing and urgency.
Beigong Tengxiao leaned over and kissed her lips, mixed with salty tears.
Chu Jiaoli calmed down for a while, raised her eyes to look at him secretly, but stopped talking.
Beigong Tengxiao raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you want to say?"
Chu Jiaoli pursed her lips and her voice trembled fiercely: "Have you and Chu Jiaowei......"
Hearing this, Beigong Tengxiao smiled sadly and said: "Li'er, if I really have anything to do with her, are you the one who is sleeping with me now?"
Chu Jiaoli sniffed and suddenly felt much better.
He smiled gently at Chu Jiaoli and said, "Don't cry, I like to see you smile."
Chu Jiaoli sobbed softly, raised her hands to cover her eyes, and said: "Yes...it was you who scolded me...oh...His Highness is really cruel..."
Bei Gong Tengxiao kissed her forehead, with gentle eyes, and said: "Okay, I am too cruel. I will never be cruel to you again, okay?"
Chu Jiaoli bit her lip and nodded, responded softly, raised her arms to wrap her arms around his neck, and snuggled into his warm embrace.
