At this point, Li Rong could no longer keep up the pretense.
She lay on the ground for a moment. When she saw that Pei Wenxuan had no intention of pulling her back, she got up on her own and pretended that nothing had happened. She elegantly returned to her seat.
She felt a little guilty.
Even though they had just quarreled, it was still a little awkward to be caught red-handed when someone volunteered to be his pillow.
This wasn't the first time she had encountered such a thing. She remembered that in her previous life, there was a good-looking top scorer who had heard that she liked beautiful men. She didn't know if he had taken a fancy to her face or her power. One day, when he was discussing politics with Li Rong, he had secretly slipped her a note.
She didn't want to bring this kind of romantic matter to court. She originally wanted to quietly deal with it, but she didn't expect it to reach Pei Wenxuan's ears. Pei Wenxuan didn't show any emotion on his face. She couldn't tell if he was happy or angry. In the end, this scholar was censured the next day and demoted from a doctor of the Imperial College to a prefectural magistrate. In less than ten years, he packed up and left Huajing. It was said that less than five li after leaving the city, he was robbed by a group of mountain bandits. Not only did they rob him of all his money, they even put a sack over his head and gave him a good beating.
She didn't believe that this kind of thing wasn't done by Pei Wenxuan. Only a petty and childish person like Pei Wenxuan would do such a thing.
In her previous life, they were in a cold war. Pei Wenxuan could only use underhanded methods behind her back. Now that they had established a relationship, he probably wouldn't be satisfied with using underhanded methods behind her back.
Therefore, Li Rong was always ready to see what Pei Wenxuan planned to do.
However, Pei Wenxuan didn't say anything. He just quietly drank his wine. After a long time, he seemed to have adjusted his mood and slowly said, "I came to find Your Highness to apologize."
"No need to apologize." Li Rong hurriedly poured him a cup of tea. "It's a small matter. Calm down first. Let out all your anger. After you're done, we can talk."
Pei Wenxuan was choked by Li Rong's words. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your Highness, there's no need for that."
"You don't have to lie to me." Li Rong raised his hand to interrupt him. He poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of him with both hands. "If you really didn't have to do this, you wouldn't have tied me up here."
"Your Highness," Pei Wenxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I originally prepared this boat for Your Highness to enjoy the lanterns together."
"Do we look like we're admiring the lanterns?"
Li Rong asked decisively. Before Pei Wenxuan could answer, Li Rong gave him the answer, "This is kidnapping."
"You quarreled with me, you scolded me, you disregarded your future and were willful. I won't care about any of these." Li Rong pushed his hands in the air and looked at him seriously. "I just want you to do one thing. Row the boat back now. If there's anything, we can talk about it when we're ashore."
"Why does Your Highness make such a request?" Pei Wenxuan looked up at him. "The scenery here is beautiful and there are few people. It's perfect for talking."
"You're right." Li Rong immediately said, "It's perfect to threaten me. I don't know how to row a boat. The water is so cold. Can I swim back? "
"Your Highness," Pei Wenxuan looked at him. "I saw the letter you wrote in Northern Yan Tower."
Li Rong froze. The two of them were silent for a moment. Pei Wenxuan poured the wine and took a sip. He slowly said, "Tell me, we're both very good to each other. Why do we always have to go to a dead end?"
"If two people don't want to separate, then it's fine. But Your Highness clearly has me in your heart. Why do we have to go to this point?"
Li Rong didn't say anything. She lowered her eyes.
"Your Highness," Pei Wenxuan held the wine cup. He was a little tired. "What is marriage to you?"
Pei Wenxuan drank the wine and slowly asked, "If you want, you can marry a person you've never met. If you don't, you can divorce and give up. What am I to you? "
Li Rong didn't answer. Pei Wenxuan turned to look at her. There was a bit of pleading in his eyes. "Your Highness, tell me the truth."
"You want to hear the truth?" Li Rong smiled. Pei Wenxuan looked at her. His eyes didn't move, which showed his attitude.
Li Rong picked up the wine cup and took a sip. Then she nodded and said, "Okay, then tonight we'll tell you the truth. I can easily separate from her because in this matter, separation is the best way. Imperial Father is suspicious. No matter how you explain, since the matter of the runes made him notice the possibility of your disloyalty, he will definitely test you. You must show your loyalty to him. This is imperative. You asked me why I asked you to divorce. Then I should ask you, why don't you divorce? "
Pei Wenxuan heard this and was about to answer. Li Rong said firmly, "Because you suspect me."
"Pei Wenxuan," Li Rong poured the wine for herself. She controlled the speed of her words and said slowly and gracefully, "Actually, you don't say it yourself. In your heart, you still don't trust me."
"If you can trust me, why are you afraid of divorce? Even if we separate, you and I will still be together. Can't that be? "
Pei Wenxuan listened to Li Rong's words and turned to look at the flowing water outside the window.
For a moment, he didn't know if he should continue.
As he spoke, it was as if he was opening up those wounds again. Those things that had been hidden for many years, and even those embarrassing pasts, were quietly separated between the two of them. He thought that if he didn't mention it, it wouldn't appear. But now, he understood that any wound would affect the subsequent choice in different ways.
He really thought that he had let it go, but now he knew that he hadn't.
"Not talking?" Li Rong laughed. "Did you poke at a sore spot? Who is the one who came to accuse me of not valuing my feelings in a dignified manner? "
Pei Wenxuan held the cup and sipped the wine without saying a word.
Li Rong looked at him in silence. Her guess was objectively confirmed. Her heart ached for no reason. She slammed the fan on the table. "Speak!"
"Do you want to hear the truth?"
Pei Wenxuan listened to Li Rong's angry shout. He looked at the lake and used the last of his calmness to restrain himself.
Li Rong raised her hand and said decisively, "Please."
"You want me to believe you," Pei Wenxuan took a big gulp of wine, as if to give himself courage, "but why should I believe you?"
Pei Wenxuan said and turned to look at her. "Because you decided to marry me for refuge? Because you said that you liked me, but immediately left when you encountered some difficulties? Because you said that you liked me and then turned around to find someone else? Because you like to be disappointed in love and happy in pleasure? "
"You want me to believe you? Is there anything about you that I can trust?"
Pei Wenxuan held the wine and came to Li Rong. He knelt down on one knee and stared at her. "You're right. I don't trust you. You can leave me today because of power. In the future, you can really leave me because of power. I'm still your husband now. If I don't let go, no one can separate us. But what if we break up? "
"Su Yongqing is still watching you and me." Pei Wenxuan laughed. "I don't trust you, and I don't trust him."
Li Rong listened to this and kept laughing. "I understand."
As she spoke, she looked up and said provocatively, "Then what are you waiting for, Lord Pei? Quickly leave me and find a good girl to live a happy life with, isn't it? "
Pei Wenxuan didn't speak. He looked at Li Rong's appearance and saw the grievances and pain hidden in her seemingly proud eyes. Looking at her stubborn and arrogant eyes, he gritted his teeth in hatred.
"What are you looking at?"
Li Rong laughed. "You can't bear to? There's nothing you can do even if you can't bear to. I'm willing to … "
Before she finished speaking, Pei Wenxuan pressed her head and kissed her. At the same time, he pressed his whole body on her and pressed her against the cabin!
Li Rong was angry. When Pei Wenxuan forced her like this, she kicked him fiercely. Pei Wenxuan immediately pressed her legs down with his legs. He grabbed both of Li Rong's wrists and pulled her head down. He lowered his head and pressed his lips against hers.
Li Rong didn't let him have his way. She bit his lips and cursed, "Bastard, bastard …"
Pei Wenxuan ignored her. The smell of blood intertwined between her lips and tongue. The more she resisted, the more her senses were magnified. All kinds of feelings rose.
"Scold."
Pei Wenxuan said in a low and hoarse voice. His usual clear voice carried some indescribable lust. He whispered, "Continue scolding. I'm listening."
Li Rong tried her best to sober up. She organized all the curses she knew to scold someone. As long as she had the slightest chance, she would scratch, bite, hit, and kick.
The two of them were almost fighting in the cabin. However, Pei Wenxuan was always looking after her, afraid of hurting her.
All the anger and mania was mixed with lust. In the end, Pei Wenxuan tied Li Rong's hands tightly with his belt and pressed his whole body on top of her. Only then was it over.
Li Rong gasped for breath and looked at the man in front of her who had already lost his elegance.
His jade crown was torn off by her. His hair was scattered on both sides, and his clothes had long been scattered.
His neck and chest were bloody marks from her scratches. His shoulders were also bitten by her. His lips were also bitten by her. Only his face was not scratched.
She was not much better herself. However, compared to Pei Wenxuan, she was much more presentable.
However, Pei Wenxuan was handsome. Even at this moment, he did not feel ugly. Even when his clothes were half open, he showed a hint of romance that was rarely seen in the outside world.
Both of them were tired. Pei Wenxuan was afraid that she would go crazy, so he pressed her down and did not move. He gently gasped and shook his head, "Li Rong, you are such a shrew. How can you be a princess?"
"How good are you?" Li Rong sneered, "Saying that you are vulgar is an insult to the word."
When Pei Wenxuan heard this, he could not help but laugh.
He looked at Li Rong's eyes. Her eyes were lively and lively. It was completely different from before when she said hurtful words.
He looked at her for a moment, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead, "Don't be like this in the future. When you say hurtful words, I feel sad."
"What does it have to do with me if you feel sad?"
When Li Rong heard his words, she felt a little wronged for no reason. Her eyes were a little sour, "Get lost."
Pei Wenxuan chuckled. He reached out and hugged her in his arms. He said gently, "Rongrong, you are a good girl. Don't be full of thorns."
Li Rong did not reply. She turned her head away, not wanting to talk to him.
Pei Wenxuan turned sideways. He did not want to put all his weight on Li Rong. They lay facing each other. Pei Wenxuan reached out and gently stroked her back. He said gently, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have said those words to provoke you. It's not that I don't trust you. It's just that I was too worried, so I was afraid. "
"I'm not sure how important I am in your heart. I'm also not sure how important Su Yongqing is in your heart. When I think of your past, when I think of the years I lost, I can't help but say the wrong things. Don't be angry, okay? "
Li Rong listened to Pei Wenxuan's apology. She lay quietly.
After exhausting her strength, she calmed down. She rested her head on Pei Wenxuan's hand and leaned into his arms. It was like a small boat returning to the harbor. She was safe and secure after being sheltered.
In fact, she knew that she was being willful. Pei Wenxuan admitted his mistake not because he was wrong, but because he had always been tolerant of her and let her have her way.
This concession gave Li Rong an unprecedented sense of security. She could not help but look up and stare at Pei Wenxuan.
Pei Wenxuan saw her looking at him and smiled gently. "Why are you looking at me?"
"Pei Wenxuan," Li Rong called him softly. "In fact, you are right. There is nothing about me that you can trust. I shouldn't blame you."
Pei Wenxuan listened to her apologize. He did not speak. Li Rong gently touched his chest with her forehead. She was a little tired. "I was negligent. I didn't expect you to be afraid. I thought too little of you. But Pei Wenxuan, it's not that you are not important. It's just that I want to give you the best. "
"Ever since I was born, everyone has told me that power is the most important thing. It's the foundation of our existence and our foundation. In fact, I am also afraid of separation. I am also worried that you will like someone else. But I am more afraid that you will ruin your future for me. "
"I'm afraid that you'll sacrifice yourself for me. One day, when you're old, or you're at the end of your rope, and you don't like me that much anymore, you'll remember everything you've done for me. At that time, you'll hate me."
Pei Wenxuan listened to Li Rong's rare confession. He gently stroked her hair.
"Why aren't you talking?" Li Rong saw that Pei Wenxuan did not speak for a long time. She raised her head and looked at Pei Wenxuan. Pei Wenxuan heard her question and smiled gently. "I am angry."
"Angry?"
Li Rong was surprised. "I am speaking so nicely. Why are you angry?"
"Yes, I am thinking that you are looking down on me too much. Just because of this, my future is ruined. When I am old, I will blame you in the future."
Pei Wenxuan smiled and turned over. Li Rong rested her head on his arm. Pei Wenxuan turned his head to look at the stars outside. "You think too much of me."
"Who knows?" Li Rong chuckled. "Different environments raise different people. If you don't become the Prime Minister, who knows what kind of Pei Wenxuan you will become? "
"I don't want to talk to you about these useless things." Pei Wenxuan shifted his gaze from the stars to her. "You just have to wait and see. It has been a lifetime. Don't you know what kind of person I am? "
"I know very well." Li Rong raised her hand and turned her tightly bound wrist in front of him. "Your skills are very good."
Pei Wenxuan looked at Li Rong and waved. He straightened up. Li Rong also sat up and handed her hand to him.
Pei Wenxuan lowered his head and untied the belt that tied her hand. He said slowly, "In fact, I was also angered by you today. In the future, think more before you speak. Don't be so hurtful. You are obviously good to me, but you have to say such terrible things. "
"But I won't laugh at you." Pei Wenxuan looked up at her and smiled. "In fact, I don't want to divorce today. It's not that I don't trust you. The most important thing is that I am worried that you will be sad. "
"How will I be sad?"
Li Rong took her hand out of the belt. Pei Wenxuan held the belt and supported himself with one hand, while the other hand rested on one of his bent knees.
He turned his head to look out of the window. Outside the window, there were some river lanterns floating on the surface of the water. They floated on the surface of the river, reflecting the stars in the sky and surrounding the small boat.
Pei Wenxuan looked at the surface of the lake. His voice was a little erratic. "The people around you are used to giving up their feelings for power. Although you said so, if I really did it, you will never know that some people's feelings are not tainted at all."
"I became an official, I fought for power in order to be by your side. So if you want me to leave you in exchange for power. "Pei Wenxuan turned to look at her and chuckled." Even if it is only for a while, even if it is just a verbal departure, I am not willing. "
"Using power in exchange for feelings. The person I like can't be used to this kind of thing."
"But this is just a small exchange." Li Rong frowned. Pei Wenxuan looked at her. "If I do not hesitate to agree to this small exchange, will you really not feel anything?"
"Rongrong," Pei Wenxuan said. He raised his hand and put it in her hair. "For me, not letting you suffer is the most important thing."
Li Rong did not speak. She quietly looked at the man in front of her.
His hair was loose and his clothes were half open. His hair danced in the night wind. The steadiness of the years added to his handsome appearance. Against the light of the lake and the moon, he looked like an immortal in a dream. Nothing more beautiful could be imagined.
After a moment of silence, the sound of a bell rang in the distance. After a while, thousands of sky lanterns slowly rose on the distant mountain. Pei Wenxuan looked up. His eyes were filled with light and he smiled.
"Rongrong," he smiled and turned his head. "Look."
The moment he turned his head, the girl kissed him.
Pei Wenxuan was stunned for a moment. He heard Li Rong say in a low voice, "Pei Wenxuan, actually, I like you more than you think."
Li Rong said. She wrapped her arms around Pei Wenxuan and sat on Pei Wenxuan's body.
Pei Wenxuan leaned against the wall of the boat. After a short moment of shock, he realized what Li Rong was doing.
He felt like his heart was soaked in honey and wrapped in sugar. It was just a small action, but it made him feel that everything was worth it.
He could not help but smile. He raised his hand to brush Li Rong's hair away from her face. Then he pressed his hand into the hair at the back of her head and deepened the kiss.
Pei Wenxuan was much more familiar with Li Rong than Li Rong herself.
He loved Li Rong. He loved everything about Li Rong. He was willing to study and work hard for her. In the end, he became proficient in this.
At first, it was just a kiss. Then, he used all kinds of methods. In the end, Li Rong hugged Pei Wenxuan softly and leaned on him. Pei Wenxuan put one hand on the window and supported his forehead. His other hand hugged the girl who was resting on him. His hand moved down her spine.
Li Rong was already paralyzed on him, but he still looked like a gentleman. He whispered in her ear, "Do you want to go back?"
Li Rong did not speak. She hugged him. She felt that he asked her a question, but he did not stop.
After a long time, she finally said in a hoarse voice, "Brother Pei …"
When Pei Wenxuan heard her address him, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. He leaned forward, raised his hand to hug her, and confirmed in her ear one last time: "Is it here?"
Li Rong responded with a nasal sound. Pei Wenxuan kissed her earlobe.
"Good girl."
After saying that, he gently placed her on the cushion. He raised his hand to take the belt next to him and covered Li Rong's eyes with it.
Li Rong could only hear the sound of water and the chirping of cicadas.
The sky was full of stars. Thousands of lights reflected on the water. The boat swayed on the surface of the water, covered by the mist in the night.
When they were deeply in love, Pei Wenxuan intertwined his fingers with hers. He called her name softly. It was completely different from usual. In the end, he vaguely whimpered.
Li Rong finally understood that the two words' emotion 'and' desire ', in the end, must have feelings in order to be able to enjoy the world.
