Lu Zhiyao held the book tightly in his hands and turned around to face Lin Yinan's smiling eyes. He stood in front of the bed, blocking the direction Lu Zhiyao wanted to leave.
"I won..." Lu Zhiyao whispered, sitting on the edge of the bed and looking at Lin Yinan uncomfortably.
"That's right." Lin Yinan looked at her flickering eyes and suddenly remembered something very important.
"Zhiyao." Lin Yinan spoke in a low voice, which made Lu Zhiyao tremble slightly. "It's getting late, we should rest."
"Liar." Lu Zhiyao frowned and muttered, confirming what he had just thought. Lin Yinan was indeed just teasing her.
Lin Yinan didn't respond to her immediately. Instead, he raised his hand to take the book in Lu Zhiyao's hand, turned around and put it on the table. Then he returned to Lu Zhiyao and said softly: "Zhiyao, it's time to sleep."
Lu Zhiyao replied in a muffled voice, took off his robe and lay down directly on the bed. Lin Yinan couldn't help laughing when he saw her dejected look, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously. He turned off the lights, got on the bed, and put Lu Zhiyao on the bed.
Lifting his slightly stiff body into his arms, Lin Yinan whispered: "I just asked you to sleep, and I didn't say I wouldn't teach you."
It was okay if Lin Yinan didn't say this, but once he said this, Lu Zhiyao became dissatisfied.
In so many days, on which day did they sleep at this time?
Lu Zhiyao snorted coldly and continued to ignore Lin Yinan. It was rare to see Lu Zhiyao being so unreasonable. Lin Yinan raised his eyebrows, finding it interesting.
It seems that many of her little problems have been brought out unknowingly. Or is this what Xia Yao was like in the beginning?
This doubt flashed through Lin Yinan's mind, but he did not delve into it. Lu Zhiyao kept lying there with his eyes wide open. Only when he noticed that Lin Yinan was unhurriedly unbuttoning her clothes did he have some idea.
panic.
"I'll do it myself." Lu Zhiyao sat up quickly, his embarrassment and shyness covering up the little awkwardness in his heart. He lowered his head and slowly took off his clothes, but before he had even taken off his clothes halfway, he heard Lin Yinan's words again.
sound.
"I'll help you."
The pleasant voice sounded in Lu Zhiyao's ears, making her wander a little. Lin Yinan's slender fingers scratched her skin, making Lu Zhiyao feel itchy in her heart, with an indescribable feeling.
Without too many surprises, she fell into Lin Yinan's arms. Lin Yinan's arm on her waist slowly tightened, and Lu Zhiyao could clearly feel the meaning he wanted to convey in his movements.
He kissed her lips softly, and every inch of her skin. Lu Zhiyao struggled slightly, and then he hugged her tighter and kissed her deeper.
The cool late night air gradually gained an ambiguous warmth. Before she knew it, half of Lu Zhiyao's clothes had taken off and were stuck around her waist. The touch in her hands made Lin Yinan's always clear and calm eyes sparkle.
After a while, Lu Zhiyao was out of breath from his kiss and his mind was in a mess.
His body slowly moved from Lin Yinan's arms to the bed, and his skin exposed to the air was kissed by hot lips, leaving traces of his on Lu Zhiyao's body. Lu Zhiyao lay there limply, even
Lin Yinan's body came up, and she didn't have the strength to stop it. Taking a breath, she involuntarily arched her body and echoed his movements. With the hard work and longing of these days, Lu Zhiyao's arms slowly climbed up
She went up to his shoulder, bit her lower lip, and hugged Lin Yinan tightly.
"Far away."
"Um?"
The passion subsided, and Lu Zhiyao lay dazedly in Lin Yinan's arms, listening to him calling his name.
"Nothing, just go to sleep."
Lin Yinan hesitated to speak, causing Lu Zhiyao to suddenly lose his sleepiness. He opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Lin Yinan, Lu Zhiyao imagined his expression at this moment in the dark, and remained silent for a long time.
The man beside her had saved her life more than once in times of crisis. But no matter what Lu Zhiyao thought, she still couldn't figure out why he was so kind to her.
Her identity should be what he was afraid of, and her appearance should not be the reason that attracted him. Uneasiness over joy invaded Lu Zhiyao's heart. How could they get to this point? Lu Zhiyao still felt a little bit
Unreal.
Every step she took with him, it seemed that he was taking the initiative. He took the initiative to go to the emperor to marry him, took the initiative to marry him, took the initiative to help her solve her troubles, and took the initiative to bring her into his world.
Only she knew how uneasy Lu Zhiyao walked from the initial rejection to the final dependence. If she were still the Xia Yao she once was, Lu Zhiyao thought, she would definitely enjoy this with peace of mind.
Everything. It's a pity that she is no longer. She has nothing now, so she can only be hesitant, even with a hint of fear, afraid that this hard-earned warmth will be like those family members who left her, and let her work hard.
I tried my best, but still couldn't touch their shadows.
"Why are you so nice to me?"
Lu Zhiyao murmured, as if he was asking Lin Yinan, or himself.
"Because you are mine."
After a while, Lu Zhiyao heard his answer. A very simple sentence, but it made Lu Zhiyao's heart tremble slightly.
"I never worry about my own vision, let alone the person I choose. If there must be someone by my side in this life, then I don't want this person to be randomly selected by my father from the list of ministers' family members, but rather
I hope she is the one I like. Ziyao, compared with those women, although you are restless, you always allow me to find something to do for myself. The Eight Emperors Palace has been quiet for too long, so long that it is almost over.
It made me forget what I wanted to do most."
Lin Yinan hugged Lu Zhiyao slightly, his warm breath fell on her neck, and in an extremely calm tone, he said words that Lu Zhiyao had never heard before.
They should all be easily satisfied people, but they have experienced things they don't want to experience. The family feud makes Lu Zhiyao dare not forget it for a moment. The prince is not dead, and the emperor will never use Lin Yinan for a day.
Stop. The helpless and heartless reality always makes people dumbfounded. Lu Zhiyao thought that in the eyes of others, they might be just two poor people. One who killed his whole family because of his weakness, and the other
Because of the bloodline that he could not choose, he was excluded by his father.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhiyao felt a little better. Even though he was still the arrogant Eighth Prince, she couldn't catch up with him no matter how hard she tried... Sunshine. But she still found it and continued to stay with him.
Reasons and motivations.
She also wants to live well and live the happy life she should have lived long ago.
Putting down his guard, Lu Zhiyao fell asleep peacefully with a smile on his lips. Little did he know that Lin Yinan beside him did not feel sleepy until dawn.
Staring at the sleeping person next to him, Lin Yinan gently stroked her long hair with his fingers. There was a hint of tenderness in his eyes, which was not so clear in his tired eyes.
Lu Zhiyao slept until dawn, stretched out comfortably, changed his clothes, and found Lin Yinan who had woken up at an unknown time.
Lin Yinan was sitting in a rocking chair basking in the sun, closing his eyes and relaxing, enjoying the quietness. He felt his eyes darken, and then heard Lu Zhiyao's excited voice.
"Didn't you agree to teach me how to read?" Lu Zhiyao bent down, looked at the leisurely Lin Yinan, and whispered: "Master has also called me, and the tuition has been paid. Don't you want to keep your words?"
?”
"Who said that?" Lin Yinan opened his eyes slightly and saw Lu Zhiyao's bright eyes and bright smile at a glance.
Taking the book out of her hand, Lin Yinan flipped through two pages and told Lu Zhiyao the shortcut to reading the book and how to read the words that she didn't understand at all.
Lu Zhiyao listened to Lin Yinan's talk and asked himself to go to his study to find another book. He couldn't help but wonder why this book that was so difficult for him was so easy for Lin Yinan.
"Have you read this book before?" Lu Zhiyao asked with a frown.
"I haven't read it, but my master gave me a book that is similar to the one before. The one Prince Mu gave you is considered simple. I think no one has taught you how to practice internal strength before, so there are some parts that you don't know at all.
How should I understand it? If Prince Mu dares to give you this, he must be convinced that I will help you, otherwise it will be difficult for him to see you, his precious apprentice, in the future."
"How do you know no one has taught me this before?"
"Do you think General Xia would dare to teach his daughter that her temperament changes drastically as soon as she gets drunk?" Lin Yinan said matter-of-factly: "If I really let you learn this early, who knows when you can't control yourself?
, what exactly will happen?”
"You sound like you know everything." Lu Zhiyao curled his lips, feeling unwilling to do so, but he still walked honestly towards Lin Yinan's study and found the book he was talking about.
Lin Yinan asked Lin Mubai to give this internal skill book to her. Lu Zhiyao always had a lot on his mind, and he had always been resistant to Lin Yinan, so Lin Yinan thought that if he really gave it to her, she might not
I will practice without any worries like I am now. And this book is not as simple as what Lin Yinan just said. Because this book was written by Mo Tianshu, so if you are a beginner, you will not understand Mo Tianshu.
The meaning behind the words must be read in conjunction with another book. And that was the first book that Lin Yinan got from Mo Tianshu a long time ago.
Lu Zhiyao followed what Lin Yinan said and really understood a lot. He was completely fooled by Lin Yinan and felt that all the internal skills and mental methods were similar. But he didn't know that what he practiced was something that many people could not even imagine.
