Chapter 64 - 64: The King Rewards You Once



Li Hongyuan had already changed out of his wedding attire and was now donning a narrow-waist, arrow-sleeved robe.

This was Jiang Ning’s first encounter with such attire; her movements were not particularly adept, but Li Hongyuan was currently out cold, oblivious to whatsoever she was doing to him.

She stripped the robe off him, discarding it onto the floor, removed his undershirt, and yanked off the crown from his head.

Finally, all that remained was his innermost garment.

Jiang Ning proceeded without pause, removing his upper garment as well.

His physique was… quite desirable, indeed.

Broad shoulders, and particularly his waistline…

Such a shame that he’s an awful person. No matter how pleasing the package, it wouldn’t attract her.

Jiang Ning’s gaze landed on his trousers, and for the first time, she found herself in a quandary.

Should I take them off?

If she took them off, wouldn’t she be searing her own eyes?

If she didn’t, it’d scarcely be believable.

They couldn’t possibly have consummated the marriage fully clothed as portrayed on TV, right?

After briefly pondering for around three seconds, Jiang Ning snuffed out the candlelight, then gingerly pinched his trousers between two fingers, pulling them off before throwing the blanket over his body.

The final step left her hesitating for quite a while. Gathering her courage, she bit her finger and dabbed a bit of blood on the bridal handkerchief.

Primarily, she was afraid of the pain.

Having busied herself with all this, she slipped a thin blanket over her body and cautiously crawled onto the bed, removing her outer clothes, leaving her torso clad in just a bodice. Wrapping herself in the blanket, the bareness of her shoulders peeked out as she leaned against the wall to sleep.

Spent and weary from the day’s shenanigans, Jiang Ning no longer had the energy for much thought and promptly fell asleep once she closed her eyes.

By the time she woke up, the sky had already begun to brighten.

Li Hongyuan was still sound asleep, the blanket had slipped off, leaving just a corner barely covering the region below his waist.

The rest of him was completely exposed.

Noticing the blanket’s trend of slipping off and in order to prevent herself from getting a visual shock, Jiang Ning hastily reached out to catch the corner of the blanket, intending to cover him completely.

However, just at that moment—

Li Hongyuan woke up.

He opened his eyes, locking gazes with Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning froze in her tracks.

In her current state, her appearance was not exactly elegant.

Only a mere bodice covered her upper body as she clung onto his blanket.

Li Hongyuan’s gaze glanced downwards, taking in his own state. His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he harshly grabbed her wrist, flinging her off.

Jiang Ning stumbled back onto the bed with a gasp, her back slamming into the wall, the pain searing.

“What’s got into you?” Jiang Ning frowned.

“It’s you who’s gone crazy,” Li Hongyuan retorted as he threw off the blanket and stood up.

Jiang Ning quickly turned her face away.

He was stark naked.

His clothes were tossed haphazardly on the floor.

Within her sight, a shocking streak of red on the bridal handkerchief.

Narrowing his eyes, he stooped down to pick up his clothes and got dressed unhurriedly.

Once he adorned his clothes, he turned to face Jiang Ning, speaking coldly, “So, this was your entire ulterior motive behind urging me to drink so fervently last night? If you desired this so much, you should’ve mentioned it earlier. I would’ve granted you once.”

Jiang Ning pulled up her blanket, “The one who acted inappropriately due to drunkenness wasn’t me.”

“Feigning innocence, are you? As the daughter of Prime Minister Jiang, your tactics are impressive. Though I don’t favor you, you at least have a pretty face. If I close my eyes, you’re barely manageable. As far as I’m concerned, one more or one less of you makes no difference to me.”

Having said that, he wore a cold expression, turned on his heel and left.

Huang Ying and Chunlai entered to serve and upon seeing the disheveled state of the bed, they stifled their laughter.

Especially when they saw the bridal handkerchief, Chunlai could barely keep her grin from reaching her ears. She carefully folded and stored the handkerchief, intending to send it to the palace later.

Jiang Ning lay down lazily, “I’ll sleep a little more.”

“Miss, it’s been an arduous day, and it’s still early. Do get some more rest.” Chunlai quickly began tidying up the bed.

Just as Jiang Ning was about to fall back asleep, a female servant arrived with a bowl of medicinal broth..
