Chapter 1348: Chapter 793: Youyou’s Happiness, Luming Crowned Empress (Part 2)
A red mosquito net paired with red sheets, along with two people dressed in red clothes, under the red candlelight...
An Youyou took the initiative to get closer to An Ji.
She feared that if she didn’t take the initiative, An Ji could spend the whole night with her just like this.
The ancients have said.
A spring night is worth a thousand gold.
It should not be wasted.
An Ji looked at An Youyou, his hands clenched tight.
An Youyou pushed An Ji onto the bed.
An Ji looked at An Youyou, at her alluring and charming appearance...
To the limit.
His patience with her finally couldn’t be controlled anymore.
On the red large bed, the night was sleepless...
Dawn arrived.
An Youyou was asleep.
Her face full of exhaustion.
But An Ji couldn’t sleep at all.
He embraced An Youyou, even now, it still felt like a dream.
Only in dreams would there be such happiness.
He couldn’t help but hold An Youyou a little tighter.
Eventually, overwhelmed by the fatigue in his body, he fell asleep hugging her.
Waking up again.
Not knowing what time it was.
An Youyou moved her body, feeling tightly held.
This unfamiliar feeling took a long while to realize, she was married, she and An Ji, had consummated... indescribably.
She was even doubting An Ji’s shyness and dullness, wondering if he was pretending.
"Awake?" An Ji’s voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
An Youyou jumped, "Why didn’t you speak if you were awake?!"
"I was afraid I’d wake you up." An Ji looked innocent.
An Youyou suddenly felt, at a loss for words.
"Do you want to get up?" An Ji asked.
"I don’t want to move." An Youyou felt her whole body had no strength.
"Then sleep a little longer."
"Mhm." An Youyou leaned closer to An Ji’s body, face buried against his chest.
Listening to his intense heartbeat, just like the night before...
An Youyou’s face flushed a little.
She suddenly thought of something, "An Ji, what was that thing last night?"
An Ji thought for a moment before reacting.
He blushingly replied, "It was something your mother gave me before leaving Daxuan Kingdom."
An Youyou frowned.
"For contraception." An Ji explained.
"...Why are we using contraception? Can’t we have children?" An Youyou obviously displeased.
"You’re only sixteen, no rush."
"Isn’t it normal for girls to have children at sixteen or seventeen?" An Youyou was speechless.
"That day, your father and I were drinking in the palace, he told me a secret about you."
"What secret?" An Youyou was puzzled.
"He said you have a special physical trait, inherited from your mother."
"Oh." An Youyou replied.
Although her father and mother indeed instructed her not to broadcast it, she didn’t think it was anything remarkable.
So she didn’t pay much attention.
Though having this trait was indeed beneficial.
No matter how grave the injury, she recovered in a few days.
And she was not easy to die.
"Your father said that once you have a child, the special trait will be passed down to the child, and your special trait would disappear." An Ji explained.
An Youyou had also heard her mother mention this.
Her mother said that if it wasn’t for this trait protecting her, she would have died hundreds of times.
Every time she said this, she felt her father couldn’t lift his head beside her.
"So my father doesn’t want me to have children for you?" An Youyou was somewhat angry.
"No." An Ji hurriedly explained, "Your father said that having children is legacy and shouldn’t be stopped. He just told me this, he said I have the right to know the truth."
An Youyou lightly bit her lip.
Her father would never do anything to hurt her.
He would just try to give her as much protection as possible.
"I asked your father if he ever regretted letting your mother have children, which caused her to lose the special trait."
"You may not know." An Youyou said, "My mother secretly gave birth to me and my brother without my father’s knowledge."
"Your father told me. And then he said, if he had known earlier, he might have stopped, at least not let your mother have children so soon. But after they were born, he didn’t regret it a single bit, because he said, your mother sacrificed for his children, and he could sacrifice for your mother. Meaning if your mother faced danger, he would use his life to protect her."
"My father treats my mother so well." An Youyou sighed.
Perhaps it was due to past regrets toward her mother.
Perhaps it was because he loved her too deeply.
Even now, after all these years, she still felt her father was anxious and worried about her mother.
