Chapter 116: Three Lives and Three Worlds Peach Blossoms 3
The spring night is short and the sun rises high. From now on, the king no longer attends court early in the morning... This poem is so suitable to describe Lin Jiu's current situation.
Over the past few days, she had learned firsthand what "partying all night long" really meant, and it had taken a heavy toll on her waist.
Hmm... Lin Jiu slowly sat up, leaning against the edge of the bed, holding his almost breaking aching waist tightly with both hands, while grumbling in a low voice with gritted teeth.
She pondered to herself, "How long has this been going on?! Seven days straight, without a single moment of pause. This is truly a world of immortals, isn't it? Are immortals this energetic?"
Thinking of this, Lin Jiu was suddenly speechless. What kind of blessing was this? She felt that her body had been completely hollowed out, as if it had fallen apart, and she could no longer bear any more torment. She couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of blessing is really hard to bear!"
At this moment, the door opened and Donghua walked in. He saw Lin Jiu's grinning face at a glance, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
Then, he noticed Lin Jiu rubbing her waist, and he felt even more guilty. He hurried over, placed a bowl of steaming porridge on the table, and then half-hugged Lin Jiu and said gently, "Ajiu, are you awake? Come and try this bowl of porridge. I specially asked someone to make your favorite peach blossom soup."
Lin Jiu looked at the porridge in front of her with no appetite at all, but in order not to worry Donghua, she forced herself to take a bite. Donghua watched her eat quietly and felt relieved. He knew that he had been too impulsive recently and had caused Lin Jiu a lot of discomfort.
He secretly made up his mind to make up for the grievances she had suffered.
When Lin Jiu finished her porridge, Donghua gently stroked her hair and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?" Lin Jiu shook her head, indicating that she was much better. Donghua felt relieved and nodded slowly, then hugged her tightly in his arms.
"I'm sorry. I've been too impulsive recently and made you so uncomfortable. In the future, I will definitely control my desires and not make the same mistake again." Donghua murmured softly, his handsome face looking particularly lovable at this moment.
Lin Jiu felt a strange feeling surge in her heart upon hearing this. She wanted to retort, to talk to Donghua about moderation. However, when she saw Donghua's charming face, it was over. Her face-obsession problem struck again, and her thoughts instantly became confused, as if blown away by a gust of wind.
Donghua's eyes were deep and bright, gleaming like stars. His lips curled up slightly, a faint smile that was captivating. Lin Jiu's heartbeat quickened involuntarily, a faint blush spreading across her cheeks, and she fell into a daze.
Lin Jiu couldn't think of anything else under these circumstances. Her mind was filled with only Donghua's figure and his captivating smile. So, she blurted out, "It's okay. I...actually, I like him, too. No need to hold back." These words flowed like a clear spring, revealing the truest emotions from the depths of her heart.
Donghua's smile widened after hearing Lin Jiu's answer. He hugged Lin Jiu tightly, a cunning look in his eyes. What a joke! He finally found a wife and got to eat meat. How could he not eat the meat when it was in his mouth? He knew Lin Jiu would fall for this trick. Isn't this a benefit for himself?
Lin Jiu was in Donghua's arms, feeling his warmth, her heart filled with happiness and satisfaction. She didn't know that she had fallen into a sweet trap, a trap carefully designed by Donghua, woven with his beauty tricks and tea-talking.
Just as the two were immersed in sweetness, Siming's voice came in at an inopportune time: "Emperor, I have something important to report!"
Hearing this voice, Donghua's face instantly darkened. He glanced towards the door displeased, his eyes gleaming with dissatisfaction and warning. It better be something important to report, otherwise...
Siming trembled as he entered the room, feeling Donghua's cold, sharp gaze. He shuddered, a bitter smile playing across his face. He secretly groaned. He didn't want to interrupt the Emperor's good fortune, but this matter was too urgent, and he had no choice but to report it.
Gritting his teeth, Siming took a deep breath and mustered his courage to speak: "Your Majesty, I have received reports from Fanyin Valley that Miaoluo has awakened and is constantly attacking the seal. I'm afraid that if this continues, the seal will be damaged."
