The Wardrobe Moved

Bang!

The wardrobe made a sound, causing both Fang Zheng and Shui Yibai to look in that direction.

Shui Yibai asked with teary eyes. "Did the wardrobe move?"

The wardrobe did move! I don't want to play anymore!

Fang Zheng was inwardly lamenting that he couldn't get any sleep tonight... this was no way to live.

Fang Zheng hurriedly said. "Rats! It's just rats!"

Thud!

The wardrobe made another sound.

Shui Yibai stared at the wardrobe and unconsciously pressed closer to Fang Zheng's embrace.

She asked in shock. "Such a loud noise, how big is this rat?"

"The food is good here, so naturally the rats aren't small! Don't mind it!" Fang Zheng quickly turned her head away.

Shui Yibai looked back at Fang Zheng, eagerly awaiting his answer.

Fang Zheng saw her gaze and faltered!

He felt guilty... extremely guilty.

He truly couldn't remember when he had said he would marry her.

After all, his self-awareness was quite good. He wouldn't stoop to deceiving women's feelings.

If he had done so, there must have been a reason!

After waiting a while without getting his answer, Shui Yibai's eyes instantly filled with enormous disappointment. She slowly stood up and walked toward the door.

Fang Zheng panicked and quickly grabbed her. "Where are you going!"

Shui Yibai gave a self-deprecating smile. "I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous."

"I am, after all, a remnant of the Qian Dynasty. I worry I might cause trouble for you..."

Fang Zheng pulled her into his arms and said sternly. "What nonsense are you talking about? If I cared about your identity, would I have kept you in my home?"

Shui Yibai's face reddened slightly, and she asked softly. "Then when you asked me what I would call the emperor if I married a princess, what did you mean?"

So that's what it was!

What did I mean? I didn't mean anything! I was just asking randomly!

Fang Zheng's heart screamed, but his mouth said. "It meant exactly what you thought it meant!"

Having received the answer she wanted, Shui Yibai calmed down and leaned against his chest, saying softly. "I know... my identity is troublesome. I don't need any official recognition... I just hope it won't affect you. But this time you must take me with you, otherwise I'll worry."

Hearing these words, Fang Zheng felt even more guilty.

Just this small request, made for his sake, not answering would be too cruel!

Steeling himself, Fang Zheng decided. "Fine, I'll take you along!"

Thud!

"I'll kill that rat later!"

"Taking you is fine, but you must follow my arrangements on the road. No acting on your own, understand?"

Shui Yibai's eyes instantly lit up with joy, and she sweetly replied. "I understand!"

"Also, don't worry about your identity anymore. You're now a resident of Taoyuan County. The past is gone."

"Young Master treats me so well, how could I not give you proper recognition?"

Shui Yibai's face gradually brightened with a smile, and she nestled against Fang Zheng's chest again.

She softly agreed.

Fang Zheng awkwardly asked. "Um... if I marry a princess, can I still marry other women?"

Shui Yibai paused, then replied sweetly. "You can marry as many as you want. What man doesn't have multiple wives and concubines! Having just one would make people laugh at you."

Fang Zheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

That's good! That's good! Both princesses probably think alike!

As long as Miaohan doesn't mind, rules are just nonsense, and I can definitely work around them!

With this thought, his heart cleared and his breathing eased.

Little Fang perked up again!

Shui Yibai gently swayed her waist, about to say something when Fang Zheng spoke first. "You're pressing on my jade pendant!"

"Isn't the jade pendant worn at your side? Who puts it in the middle?"

"My jade pendant is quite large! It pulls too much on the side... makes walking unbalanced."

Shui Yibai burst into laughter.

She looked up at Fang Zheng.

This man was truly different in every way, unusual in every aspect.

The first time they met, he had even used his finger...

Thinking of this, she felt an irrepressible shyness welling up inside her.

Fang Zheng, seeing her blushing face and lovely watery eyes, couldn't help but lean in closer.

Shui Yibai knew what was about to happen, yet her heart still pounded wildly.

She closed her eyes, waiting for Fang Zheng to approach.

At this moment, it wasn't that Fang Zheng was being unfaithful, but that he had been possessed by Little Fang, and simply couldn't control his actions.

The moment they touched, Shui Yibai trembled all over, her bones turning soft and muscles going numb, the strength in her waist giving way.

Fang Zheng naturally reached out to support her, his tongue just about to come into play... when there was another knock at the door!

Shui Yibai frantically pushed Fang Zheng away, looking around in confusion.

"Where should I hide?"

"In the wardrobe... no! There's a rat in there! Hide behind the bed!"

Shui Yibai quickly ran to the bed, pulled the curtain, and concealed herself behind it.

Fang Zheng angrily shouted at the door. "Who the hell is it! Won't you let me sleep? Get in here!"

The door opened, and Zhang Biao's big face appeared.

He looked innocently at Fang Zheng and said in a deep voice. "Young Master, it's me!"

Little Fang, who had been in the middle of possession, was clearly intimidated by Zhang Biao's masculine energy! He retreated again.

The fire of passion successfully transformed into anger, and Fang Zheng was furious. "Damn it! Do you also want me to take you along?"

Zhang Biao was completely confused. "Take me where?"

"......"

One more round of this and I'll fall ill! Fang Zheng said with a bitter face. "What is it? Tell me."

Zhang Biao stepped forward and pulled out a dagger from his bosom. "I thought since you're leaving, and I won't be by your side, you should have a weapon for protection. This dagger was taken from the Firearms Institute. The handle can shoot projectiles."

"Couldn't you have given it to me tomorrow?!" Fang Zheng had completely lost his patience.

"I was afraid I'd forget tomorrow!"

Fine, a powerful reason. Fang Zheng had nothing to say and could only wave his hand. "Ah, got it, now hurry back to rest."

Zhang Biao put down the item and left without another word.

Seeing him walk away, Fang Zheng quickly returned to the bed.

Shui Yibai nimbly jumped down from the bed, gave Fang Zheng a charming smile, and said. "I'm going now. I'll pack a few things and set out with you tomorrow."

"One more kiss!" Fang Zheng shamelessly demanded.
