Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Wu Yan knew Shi Xiao’s habits. Even after he got married, he had always slept alone in his room. Hence, after Yuan Shu moved in, she specifically prepared another room for her to stay in. Shi Xiao’s room had always been empty.

Wu Yan asked respectfully, “Young Master, Madam, do you two need me to prepare hot water for a bath?”

Shi Xiao didn’t speak, but he looked at the exhausted Yuan Shu with interest.

Yuan Shu was too tired after playing for the entire night. She urgently needed a hot shower and some good rest.

She took off her black leather shoes and rubbed her neck as she replied to Wu Yan, as if the person beside her didn’t exist, “Help me put on a basin of hot water and prepare a cup of honey water to put in my room.”

As Yuan Shu spoke, she put on her slippers and walked upstairs, as if she had completely forgotten that Shi Xiao was standing beside her.

Not knowing how to react, Wu Yan looked at Yuan Shu and then at Shi Xiao.

Shi Xiao smiled and held Yuan Shu’s hand as he said to Wu Yan, “Two glasses.”

Wu Yan went to the kitchen to get busy.

Yuan Shu was in a completely relaxed state now, so when she was suddenly pulled back, she took a step back and bumped into Shi Xiao’s arm.

Shi Xiao hugged Yuan Shu from behind.

Yuan Shu wasn’t used to such an intimate action, so she frowned and slapped Shi Xiao’s hand away with her elbow.

Yuan Shu was very tired now and wasn’t in the mood to deal with him, so she asked coldly, “What do you want?”

Shi Xiao’s expression was matter-of-fact. He didn’t care about Yuan Shu’s reaction at all. Instead, he walked towards the room first. “Of course we’re going back to sleep. Aren’t you tired?”

Yuan Shu felt that there was something wrong with his expression, but there was nothing wrong with his words. However, Yuan Shu quickly reacted. When he said sleep, he meant that he actually wanted to go to her room!

Before he opened her door, Yuan Shu quickly stepped forward to stop him. “Where are you going?”

“Is there a problem with returning to our room?” Shi Xiao’s tone was calm.

However, Yuan Shu could clearly see the provocation in Shi Xiao’s eyes, so she knew that he must be testing her. Her reaction in the No Man’s Land had already made him suspicious.

Everything had its own rules. One couldn’t know or understand it, but one couldn’t change it.

If Shi Xiao asked Yuan Shu who she was, she couldn’t tell him that she was from another dynasty outside this world, right? Then, other than treating her as a mental patient and sending her to a mental hospital, Shi Xiao probably wouldn’t have a second option.

Yuan Shu calmed down and stated, “We’ve always slept in separate rooms.”

Shi Xiao said coldly, “Then let’s sleep together from today onwards.”

Yuan Shu said, “I’m not used to sleeping with others.”

Shi Xiao said, “Then let’s get used to it from today onwards.”

Yuan Shu was speechless.

As Shi Xiao spoke, Shi Xiao walked around Yuan Shu and opened the door to enter the room.

Yuan Shu placed her hand on the whip at her waist, as if she was ready to attack at any time.

She had been here for so long, but she had never seen such a disobedient person before.

Just as Yuan Shu was about to make a move, a familiar feeling came from her lower abdomen. It was her period.

Yuan Shu was stunned. For the first time, she felt that this period had come at the right time! She quickly walked into the toilet, put on tampons, and came out. “I’m on my period, so it’s a little indecent to sleep in the same bed now. I can only trouble you to sleep alone for a few days.”

Shi Xiao sized Yuan Shu up a few times before stopping at her abdomen, which was protected by her left hand. It seemed that she was determined not to share a room with him today.

Since she had already said so, Shi Xiao didn’t insist and could only leave. There would be many opportunities to test her in the future.

Shi Xiao couldn’t figure out what had happened after he left for two months. Why did Yuan Shu seem to have completely changed into a different person?

Yuan Shu, who usually had to put on heavy makeup even at home, looked even more beautiful after removing the thick layer of makeup. Her facial features were exquisite and gentle.

More importantly, her temperament had changed. She was no longer tacky. Instead, she looked more sophisticated and dignified..
