This scene truly made everyone present envious. Ziying stared blankly, her heart filled with an overwhelming sense of envy.
Meanwhile, the man standing beside her closed his eyes silently, as the saying goes, "Out of sight, out of mind."
But could his heart really remain so calm?
Looking at him, he only kept his eyes closed for a short while before he couldn't help but open them again to steal a glance. Inside, he felt as if a bottle of mixed emotions had been overturned—nothing felt good!
But what could he do? Clearly, these two were destined to be a perfect pair in the grand scheme of things!
What was he? At most, he could only be regarded as a subordinate in the eyes of the one he admired, merely a head innkeeper in the Heavenly Pivot Sect. The reality was just that!
Yuwen Yu thought about it, and his heart surged like waves rising and falling, uncontrollable. He wanted to let go but couldn't bear to do so. Thus, he was filled with contradictions, caught in a dilemma, and his heart felt like it was being cut by knives.
Ziyan was no fool; when she saw the complex look in his eyes as he stared at her, she finally began to understand. After all, she had studied psychology quite well; her university education in her previous life wasn't for nothing.
No wonder Qi Yu had been acting strangely recently; as her brain in this era, he certainly couldn't be considered an ordinary person. Combining the strengths and characteristics of people from both eras, it was entirely possible that many secretly admired her.
Ziyan began to ponder this and recalled the time from when she first met the head innkeeper to when they became familiar. His expressions and behaviors sometimes seemed quite odd. Could it be that he had already developed feelings for her?
Thinking of this, Ziyan quickly covered her lips with both hands, and this expression was immediately captured by Yuwen Yu.
At that moment, when their eyes met, Ziyan quickly chose to avoid his fiery gaze.
Meanwhile, Prince Xuan also noticed that greedy gaze and immediately wrapped his arms around his beloved child and swiftly left while rudely issuing an order to Yuwen Yu: "Head Innkeeper, you can leave without seeing us off."
In an instant, only the frustrated and somewhat desperate head innkeeper remained in the pavilion. Just a second ago, when Ziying noticed that her sister and future brother-in-law seemed to have some reservations about him, she hurriedly chased after their retreating figures.
Next, Yuwen Yu stood alone for a long time before reluctantly leaving after looking up at the sky.
Having already gone up to the second floor, Ziyan intentionally walked along the corridor with Prince Xuan in a sweet and intimate manner while whispering sweet nothings—just to show off to that single man downstairs who coveted his woman.
As Demon Lord Fifth wished, when Yuwen Yu caught sight of Ziyan's dejected departure, Ziyan and the satisfied Demon Prince immediately turned to look at him while suppressing their laughter for quite some time.
When their moods finally calmed down, suddenly for some unknown reason, Ling Yuxuan tightened his grip around his beloved child fiercely.
"Uh? What are you doing?" Ziyan was startled.
"Look at me, from now on you are not allowed to smile at other men casually," Prince Xuan said, his gaze cold and fixed tightly on Ziyan in his arms.
"I didn't!" Ziyan felt a bit confused.
However, the Demon Prince did not think so. He continued, "Especially towards those men who do not have good intentions towards you."
"Not good intentions! Towards me? Who?" Ziyan understood what her Demon Prince was getting at, but at that moment, she inexplicably wanted to provoke him a little more, so she feigned surprise and acted adorably clueless.
"Stop pretending; you know what I mean," the Demon Prince directly exposed her little act.
"Oh!" Ziyan was speechless. Her little scheme had been seen through, and she could only helplessly lower her head in silence.
"Um? Sister, which room should I stay in?" Just as the two were flirting with each other, a slightly timid voice came from behind them.
"Uh? This one?" Ziyan turned to look at her sister and said, "How about this, sister can stay in the room that the prince used to live in; after all, he has his own mansion now."
Ziyan pointed to the room where the Demon Prince had originally stayed. After finishing her pointing, she began searching for any servants. Just then, the maid Yang Xiaodie peeked her head out.
"Go and tidy up that room; it will belong to my sister—the young lady—from now on," Ziyan instructed Yang Xiaodie directly.
"Yes, I will go right away," Yang Xiaodie replied to Ziyan before looking at the still dazed Ziying. "Young lady, please follow me."
"Mm, okay, okay," Ziying nodded vigorously but then looked meaningfully at Ziyan. "I'm really tired; I'll just go to sleep first. You don't need to worry about me."
Ziyan found her sister's behavior amusing but also understood that she was afraid of disturbing her with the Prince. So Ziyan silently thought: this oblivious sister actually has some awareness.
Then, Ziyan nodded at her sister and replied, "Mm, okay. Then I won't disturb you tonight. If you're scared or need anything, just call Yang Xiaodie."
"Mm, I understand." After nodding one last time, Ziying followed the maid Yang Xiaodie toward the room.
There were dark guards everywhere upstairs and downstairs; Ling Yuxuan naturally wouldn't let anyone watch how they flirted any longer. So after seeing Ziying enter her old room with the maid, he pulled his beloved child and walked straight into her room.
“Prince, are you not tired yet?” Ziyan bit her lower lip and blinked her beautiful big eyes at the man. However, this action became a strong and deadly temptation in the eyes of the Demon Prince.
“Tired, of course I am, but with a beauty in my arms, even if This King is tired, I can still hold on,” the Demon Prince said, pretending to be frivolous as he noticed her teasing.
“Cut it out. Do you want me to find some pretty girls for your Xuan Wang Fu? They should be both beautiful and curvy,” Ziyan continued to tease before he could respond. “How about picking a courtesan from my Qingfeng Tower?”
“Get lost, This King doesn’t want those flower girls; This King only wants you.” The Demon Prince finally stopped the nonsense and immediately pounced on Ziyan, lifting her up and placing her directly on the bed.
“Hey—are you not going back to your prince's mansion tonight?” Ziyan asked anxiously as he was getting serious.
“Not going back. I would rather die in a gentle embrace than spend another lonely night in that empty mansion,” the Demon Prince began to act shamelessly and immediately pressed his Beloved One beneath him.
At the same time, he quickly held Ziyan’s head with both hands, and his sensual lips covered her sweet lips.
“Mmm, mmm—” Ziyan initially wanted to say something, but after this kiss, she couldn’t say anything at all.
After a moment of “mmm,” she stopped protesting and even began to reciprocate, savoring each other’s sweetness and fragrance with her Demon Prince.
Next, driven by their primal impulses, neither of them rejected the other. Ziyan satisfied her Demon Prince’s desires, though it could only be considered a light flirtation.
The principle remained unbroken. After they stopped their playful antics, they quickly fell silent.
Xuan Wang gently stroked his Beloved Child’s long hair, which felt incredibly soft and silky.
“Are you really not planning to go back there tonight?” Ziyan’s blushing face looked even more delicate after their earlier teasing.
The Demon Prince couldn’t help but gently brush his curved fingers against her fair face. Finally, he softly replied, “Wherever you are is This King’s home.”
Huh? Upon hearing this, Ziyan’s face turned red again. “Oh!” But she quickly added, “Isn’t it getting late?”
“Indeed it is, but This King doesn’t want to be apart from you for even a moment.” Seeing his Beloved Child looking so charming made Ling Yuxuan feel an inexplicable primal urge. He felt a throbbing sensation in a private area.
But Ziyan was unaware of this! To soothe his little heart, she leaned forward and offered him a kiss.
In that moment, someone's heart, which had been holding back, was about to explode. Just as Ziyan unintentionally felt her waist brush against something hard and suddenly became anxious, the Demon Prince seemed to be possessed and almost unfastened the Beloved Child's swaddling clothes. At the moment Ziyan's eyes widened in shock as she locked gazes with a Monster, she finally realized she was on the verge of losing her sanity.
So, she immediately shook her head and turned over to lie on her side. Even though it was already a winter night, she found herself sweating profusely, gasping for breath while helplessly staring at her Beloved One, her face flushed like that of a red-faced Guan Gong.
In an instant, a strong atmosphere of unfulfilled desire surged through the room. Ziyan felt quite helpless; she thought it was all her fault and had nothing to say!
Silence!
After that, apart from the rhythmic sound of their breathing, there were no other noises.
"Future Wife, sleep now! I was wrong; I won't trouble you anymore," the Demon Prince smiled gently at Ziyan and comforted her.
"Mm!" Ziyan turned on her side, preparing to fall asleep quietly, but then asked with a hint of worry, "Can you sleep now?"
"Mm, don't worry. If Future Wife can sleep, then I can sleep too," the Demon Prince replied with a faint smile.
"Okay, then I'm going to sleep!" After saying this last sentence, Ziyan turned back to face the edge of the bed and settled down comfortably.
Before long, exhausted Ziyan quickly fell into a deep sleep.
After glancing at his Beloved Child and noticing she had already entered a state of slumber, the Demon Prince gently covered her with a blanket.
