Having many handsome men means no worries; pampering them all keeps me in good spirits.

Chapter 188 Follow your heart

Liang Cheng took two jugs of wine, handed one to Lin Zhijie, and then sat down next to him.

Lin Zhijie felt somewhat surprised. Liang Cheng clearly knew that he had ulterior motives at that time, so why was he still willing to treat her so well?

He stared at the wine pot in his hand, lowered his eyes, and said, "Liang Cheng, have you always been this kind and gentle?"

Liang Cheng chuckled and said, "It's just following my heart, so it can't really be called being kind and gentle."

Lin Zhijie shook his head with a wry smile. "Heh, follow your heart, what a fine way to say it..."

Liang Cheng gently patted his shoulder and said softly, "If I were like you, holding an official position in the court and a high position in the harem, perhaps I would also try to compete for it."

Lin Zhijie's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, and he turned his head slightly to look at Liang Cheng. Clearly, it was quite unexpected for these words to come from his mouth.

Seeing the surprise in Lin Zhijie's eyes, Liang Cheng laughed and said, "The harem... that's how it is... all sorts of stunningly handsome men gather here, but there's only one husband. If you don't fight for him, you can only wait for him to choose you... But luckily, our husband is very fair and always treats everyone equally, so everyone takes turns serving him. There's no need to worry that he'll forget about us..."

Lin Zhijie smiled, raised his wine pot and tapped it against Liang Cheng's wine pot, then tilted his head back and took a big gulp of wine.

He casually wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth with his arm and slowly began to speak: "Actually, I fell in love with my husband a long time ago, perhaps even earlier than others... Back then, although my husband seemed carefree and irresponsible on the surface, he was extremely intelligent and wise, and a little frivolous..."

I still remember that day at the Ministry of Rites, my husband was leaning against the small couch when I pulled him onto me and said I wanted to kiss him…

From that moment on, he developed unusual feelings for his husband…

Liang Cheng laughed and said, "Indecent... that adjective is very fitting for my husband."

Lin Zhijie took a sip of wine and continued, "But there are just too many things to handle at the Ministry of Rites, and I can never finish them all, so I have very little time to spend alone with my husband. It wasn't until I watched helplessly as one man after another entered the harem that I started to get anxious..."

That's why the court forced him into marriage...

Upon hearing this, Liang Cheng also tilted his head back and took a big gulp of wine, his eyes filled with empathy.

He watched as one man after another entered the harem, and bowls and chopsticks were added again and again, until eventually a super-sized table was made...

Lin Zhijie curled her lips into a smile. "However, to my delight, my husband is indeed a woman, just as I suspected… which makes me even happier. But my possessiveness towards her is growing stronger. I don't want to see her intimate with other men, and I don't want her to leave my side even for a moment…"

After all, what man would want the woman he loves to kiss and be intimate with another man?

Liang Cheng pursed his lips and said, "But she is not just any one of our women; she is also the ruler of a nation, the sovereign of this world..."

Lin Zhijie nodded with a wry smile, "Of course I know my little tricks won't last long before they're exposed, but I just want my husband to spend more time with me, even if it's just one more day, one more hour, or even just one more incense stick... Just seeing her face makes me feel so happy..."

Liang Cheng lowered his eyes and said, "And what about me? Just one more glance from my husband and I'm happy all day..."

After Lin Zhijie finished the last sip of his drink, he suddenly felt dizzy and finally collapsed to the ground...

Liang Cheng chuckled and shook his head. After carefully covering the cloak that had fallen to his side with the body, he got up and returned to the crowd.

Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Liang Cheng, you seem to have a good relationship with Lin Zhijie. It seems I have to tell you some of the truth."

Liang Cheng reached out and casually picked up a skewer of beef from the stove. After slowly taking a bite, he said calmly, "We're all husbands, so it's normal to have some little thoughts. It all comes down to loving our husbands too much. As long as we don't do anything to hurt our husbands, I don't care about anything else."

Shen Yuan chuckled and said, "Liang Cheng is broad-minded; it seems I have spoken too much."

Liang Cheng smiled and said, "In my opinion, we are all family, so we should get along well to avoid causing you any trouble."

Jiang Qingyan, who was leaning on Mo Ting's shoulder, smiled slightly upon hearing this, gave Liang Cheng a thumbs up, and praised, "My Liang Cheng is so sensible! Listen to what he says, it's so pleasing to the ear!"

Shen Yuan retorted, unconvinced, "What? Does my husband mean that the rest of us are all ignorant?"

Upon hearing this, the others also looked at Jiang Qingyan, all with expressions of dissatisfaction.

Jiang Qingyan awkwardly tugged at the corners of her mouth and quickly reassured him, "He's so sensible...so sensible...My man, how could he be so sensible! Not only is he sensible, but he's also an expert! He knows everything about bedroom matters!"

Hearing Jiang Qingyan's suggestive words, everyone blushed instantly and quickly lowered their heads to eat their meat skewers...

My husband is truly my husband; no matter when or where, he can always say so many inappropriate things…

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Jiang Qingyan coughed lightly and said, "Tonight, it was supposed to be Yun Yuxuan's turn to serve you, but he has returned to Xia Kingdom. So, let Yi Luo serve you tonight, and we'll make up for it when Yun Yuxuan returns."

Upon hearing this, Yi Luo, sitting some distance away, felt his heart pounding with excitement; it had been a long time since he had served a man in bed…

Moreover, the affair with Yuan Lie had caused such a huge uproar that the Empress punished them by forbidding them from serving the Emperor for a month…

Seeing that Mo Ting did not object, Jiang Qingyan slowly got up and walked to Yi Luo's side, leaning down to ask with concern, "Yi Luo, is your eye feeling any better?"

Yi Luo nodded and said, "Much better. Green Medicine's medical skills are excellent. I should be fully recovered in a few more days..."

Jiang Qingyan reached out and touched Yi Luo's long, thick eyelashes, then whispered in his ear, "Then let's hurry back to your palace. A moment of blissful night is worth a thousand pieces of gold..."

Upon hearing this, Yi Luo's heart pounded even faster, and his cheeks began to flush. He smiled and scooped Jiang Qingyan up in his arms, using his lightness skill to return to their bedchamber.

Jiang Qingyan wrapped her arms around Yi Luo's neck, her eyes filled with heartache...

Since Yi Luo injured his eye, he has become less mischievous and more taciturn than before…

Feeling Jiang Qingyan's distressed gaze, Yi Luo chuckled and said, "Husband, don't worry, my eyes are fine. Except for not being able to see things that are too far away, everything else is normal."

Jiang Qingyan gently kissed his lips and said, "Promise me you won't get hurt again, okay?"
