Chapter 120 You really intend to repay me in this way
In order to repay Gu Yizi's kindness, Xia Zheng did her best to prepare a large table of dishes for him, including the pot from last time.
The room was filled with steam and had a particularly homely air.
Looking at the table full of dishes and Xia Zheng, whose forehead was still sweaty, Gu Yizi suddenly felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have been so serious as to ask her to repay him in this way.
They were so busy that it was already dark. If he didn't eat all the dishes, it would be a waste of her hard work. But if he tried them all, the meal would be almost midnight when he finished.
But he knew that Ruanruan would wake up before midnight every day to pester Xia Zheng and would not go back to sleep until after the hour of the common people. He would have to prepare to go to court at the hour of the eleven, so there was no time at all.
"Why don't you pick up your chopsticks, Prince? Is it not to your liking?" Seeing that Gu Yizi was still not picking up his chopsticks, Xia Zheng became worried.
After all, it's a way to repay a favor, so if it doesn't suit my taste, it won't count.
"I just want to taste your pot first." Gu Yizi made up an excuse.
"This pot has just been cooked. You need to wait a moment. I'll give you a bowl of ingredients first." Xia Zheng reached out and took the small bowl, put the prepared red pepper, Sichuan peppercorns, mint, sesame oil... into the bowl one by one, stirred them together, and then handed it to Gu Yizi.
Looking at the bright red oil in the bowl, I glanced at the clothes I was wearing today. They happened to be made of silk cotton, which was moisture-absorbent and breathable, and naturally...
Gu Yizi reached out to grab the chopsticks, and his lifted sleeves just brushed against the bowl of ingredients that Xia Zheng was about to put on the table.
Although her sleeves were light, Xia Zheng couldn't hold the bowl. It slipped out of her hand and fell on the table. All the oil inside splashed onto Gu Yizi's white robe.
Xia Zheng was so frightened that she quickly took a handkerchief to wipe Gu Yizi, but before she could put the handkerchief in, she saw the oil seeping in rapidly. When she reached Gu Yizi, even his underwear was soaked with oil.
"I was careless. This oil is spicy and might cause a rash if it comes in contact with your skin. Your Highness, please go to the bathhouse and undress quickly."
After Xia Zheng finished speaking, she saw that Gu Yizi did not move, but just looked down at his oily body.
When Xia Zheng got closer, she could see clearly that the oil had almost stained the front of the clothes, especially the laces, which were the hardest hit areas. It was not easy for Gu Yizi to untie it by himself, and he would even move the laces on the sleeves to other places.
After all, it was her fault. If she had known this, she wouldn't have been so involved.
There was no point in regretting, so Xia Zheng could only say, "It's my fault. Your Highness, please allow me to help you bathe."
"This is the only way." Gu Yizi then stood up and went to the bathroom.
As Xia Zheng followed, she always felt that something was wrong. She turned around to look at the overturned bowl of ingredients. Why was the direction so perfect?
"What? Do you think this prince's clothes are not wet enough?"
Gu Yizi's words immediately pulled Xia Zheng back. She quickly went into the bathroom and took off Gu Yizi's clothes.
There weren't many clothes, but the workmanship was complicated and they were soaked in oil, so they were difficult to untie. It wasn't until the bathtub was filled with water that Xia Zheng finally took off the inner shirt, revealing her undershirt and trousers that were dotted with oil like flowers.
All underwear is made of cotton, and the weather is even thinner now. After absorbing moisture, it fits even better. Even if it is not transparent, the muscle curves of Gu Yizi's body can be seen at a glance.
He is now stronger than before the last expedition.
Thinking back to the last time she saw him like this, she was still flirting with him. Perhaps it was because they hadn't been intimate for too long. Even though Xia Zheng had thought about flirting with Gu Yizi today, her face turned red with embarrassment, and her heartbeat quickened.
Gu Yizi seemed not to notice, he took over, took off his shirt, and stepped into the bathtub.
In the mist, he sat with his arms outstretched, his sturdy chest half hidden and half exposed, and above his sharp jaw was a face as noble as that of a banished immortal.
Xia Zheng didn't even know that the word "charming" could be used to describe a man.
But now this scene is really making people think about it.
"Why are you still standing there? Didn't you say you would help me take a bath?" Gu Yizi turned around and asked.
Xia Zheng hurriedly lowered her head, afraid that Gu Yizi would say that she was thinking about those things again. Feeling guilty, she picked up the handkerchief and hurried over, kneeling beside the bathtub and reaching out to wet her hands.
Her eyes naturally went to the water. She forgot that she didn't scatter flower petals today. Her trousers were soaked by the water and were a little transparent. She was so frightened that she stood up quickly, and her handkerchief was also pulled up, and the water splashed on Gu Yizhi's face.
"I didn't mean it!" Xia Zheng was so scared that she hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief, but she didn't wring out the water, so it flowed down Gu Yizi's cheek.
"Prince, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I just..." Xia Zheng hurriedly wrung out the handkerchief and wiped it on Gu Yizi's face, trying to explain.
But the busier she was, the more chaotic it became. I didn't know when the hem of her skirt got wet, and it slipped when she moved forward, and she fell into the pool.
Although Gu Yizi reached out to catch her, most of her body was submerged in the pool, and she happened to be sitting in Gu Yizi's arms.
"You really do intend to repay me in this way."
Or plan?
Thinking of what she said in front of the carriage, Xia Zheng hurriedly waved her hands to explain: "I didn't, I just... just..."
At this moment, it seems that any explanation seems pale.
Looking at Gu Yizi's eyes that seemed to have seen through her, she thought that she had to seduce him to stay tonight anyway. Now that it has come to this, it is better to make it a fact than to explain it.
Xia Zheng simply reached out and hooked her arm around Gu Yizi's neck. Recalling the posture depicted by the pool in the fire-avoidance atlas, she leaned close to Gu Yizi and asked tenderly, "Then, my lord, can you please grant me what I wish for?"
"Okay."
it is good?
Xia Zheng thought she would have to say a lot of embarrassing things without any shame, but she hadn't even said the words for the fire-avoiding picture yet, and Gu Yizi agreed?
She clearly said before that she was only thinking about those things, so shouldn't she be unwilling to do this?
Before Xia Zheng could figure it out, her mouth was sealed, followed by a tingling sensation. The warm water magnified everything. Before she could catch her breath, her rationality flew away. She also had no time to think about what was wrong. She was pulled by Gu Yizi wave after wave.
She didn't know how she got back to the bed from the bathroom. She only knew that she was so weak that she couldn't even turn over. She could only lean on Gu Yizi's arms.
"You begged me to grant you your wish, and now that's not going to happen?"
She hadn't expected that Gu Yizi had held back so much during her last pregnancy. Now she was powerless to argue, so she just perfunctorily said, "I just came out of confinement."
"An excuse." Gu Yizi pointed it out to her, and in the blink of an eye he saw the cabinet that Xia Zheng had just opened with a wave of her hand in excitement, and saw something in the box inside.
He reached out and took it, which was a backup of the document he had written earlier about taking a concubine.
"Does this make you so happy?"
Happy?
Xia Zheng's unclear gaze turned to the document in Gu Yizi's hand.
Is it about promoting a concubine?
She wasn't very happy at all, because it was all for Ruanruan.
She had asked Shuangjiang to find a place to put the document that day, but she didn't expect that she would put it here and be discovered by Gu Yizi.
But she couldn't say that, so she said nonsense: "Your Highness has made many plans for me and Ruanruan, and I am naturally happy and grateful. However, I cannot see Your Highness during my confinement, so I put this precious document here."
"That's not gratitude."
Xia Zheng looked up in confusion.
不算?
Just as I was wondering, Gu Yizi's lips suddenly came close to mine.
What follows is another round of desire.
Xia Zheng swore that from now on, she would never express gratitude again, because there was a price to pay.
