Ji Yucang's expression paused slightly, a hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes, and then he couldn't help laughing: "Your temperament is really different from that of ordinary women. You can't even say a nice word."

"Do you like to listen to obedient words?" Shen Ning raised her eyebrows, "I can tell you, but you are not a fool. You should be able to tell whether what I say is true or false."

Ji Yucang was speechless: "..."

"There have been rumors in the Yong Kingdom that you are ruthless and bloodthirsty. I think the rumors are inconsistent with the facts." Shen Ning looked at him calmly, "Are those rumors because of your connivance?"

Ji Yucang raised his eyebrows: "Is this important?"

Shen Ning was silent for a moment and shook her head: "It's not important."

Ji Yucang raised her hand to test the temperature on the edge of the bowl, and elegantly brought the bowl to her mouth. Even her act of drinking the medicine looked extremely noble.

Shen Ning watched his movements and couldn't help but smile. "Isn't it bitter to drink so slowly?"

"Bitter." Ji Yucang responded, "But my calm and majestic image is more important."

Shen Ning chuckled: "You are probably the first person to drink the bitter decoction and taste it like tea."

Ji Yucang drank a bowl of medicine slowly, took out the brocade handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, then raised his eyes to look at Shen Ning: "You seem to be in a much better mood today."

Shen Ning's smile faded slightly and she was silent for a while before remembering that she used to be a lively and active person.

It's just that it's been so long that she seems to have forgotten the simplicity and beauty of the past.

Time can best temper a person, while pain and betrayal can make people grow instantly.

"Ji Yucang." Shen Ning stood up, walked up to him, and looked at his convincing face, "I have been living in the Regent's Mansion these days. In fact, I have never regarded myself as your princess. I only think that this is a Deal. I will detoxify you, and you will provide me with a shelter for the time being. Sooner or later we will have to part ways."

Ji Yucang pursed her lips: "What now?"

"Now, I think you're pretty good." Shen Ning raised her hand, imitating the action he always used to rub her head, and rubbed his head awkwardly, "I was once a loser, and the lessons I learned were harsh, so I can no longer completely trust someone as I did before, but I will try my best to become someone who can fight alongside you, try to accept you, and then..."

She lowered her eyebrows and thought for a while, then said: "If you think I can really do something for the people of the world, then I am willing to try to do it, not to leave a name for the ages, but to have no regrets in this life."

"What a person who has no regrets in this life." Ji Yucang's eyes flashed with emotion. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms. He lowered his head and kissed her red lips, as if he had been waiting for a long time and longed for a long time. "Shen Ning, this It’s your promise, don’t go back on it.”

Shen Ning was stunned by his sudden intimate action and was forced to lie in his arms, looking at him with open eyes. There was no emotion in her dark and calm eyes, only confusion and confusion.

Such a look made Ji Yucang feel guilty.

He felt that he was bullying a weak and ignorant girl.

In fact, Shen Ning's actual age is by no means a weak and ignorant girl, but no matter how old she is, this is the first time she has had such an intimate action with a man in a real sense, and it is a normal reaction to feel at a loss.

However, after reacting, Shen Ning quickly suppressed the heat on her cheeks and looked at Ji Yucang calmly: "You are unprepared."

Unprepared?

Ji Yucang suddenly chuckled, with a hint of smile on his face.

He was naturally handsome and noble, and this smile was like the ice and snow in the mountains melting for the first time. The morning sun shines on the dirt-cleaned snow-capped mountains, making it dazzling and beautiful.

"Okay." He responded softly, his voice low and melodious, "I will wait until you are ready before attacking next time."

Shen Ning: "..."

Standing up from his arms, Shen Ning looked up at the distant sky, coughed slightly, and collected her emotions.

"I just said that I would try to fight side by side with you, and I haven't agreed to become an intimate couple with you yet." She said, "In the future, you are not allowed to be rude to me without my consent."

Ji Yucang took her hand, put it on her lips and kissed it softly: "I will obey my husband's command."

Shen Ning frowned again and again, and suddenly realized that Ji Yucang was also a pushover. He had never gone overboard with her before, and she thought he didn't actually take their marriage seriously.

He didn't expect that his true nature would be revealed with just one word from her.

Shen Ning pursed her lips and tasted a bit of bitterness. She raised her hand to wipe her lips. Seeing Ji Yucang's sad eyes for a moment, she subconsciously explained: "It's a bit bitter."

Ji Yucang's eyebrows stretched, "Husband and wife should share joys and sorrows."

Shen Ning looked at him expressionlessly, then turned and walked to the pharmacy: "I'm going to prepare the medicine for tonight."

Ji Yucang didn't speak, he just followed the back with his eyes, and he couldn't suppress the curve of the corner of his mouth.
