A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

Chapter 232 Normal Reaction

"Xuan Yuan, hee hee~"

He seemed to want to be even more shameless, gripping Xin Moyan's shoulders, his gaze burning with affection, "Yan'er, you just said you only like me and will only marry me, so... could you call me 'husband' first?"

"Husband...husband my foot! Xuan Yuan, you weren't like this before~" Xin Moyan's cheeks were flushed, but she was a little depressed.

"Hehe~ Yan'er is so shy, what am I going to do after we get married?"

"Cold scrambled eggs! We'll talk about that later. Anyway, I promised my brother that I can only act according to my feelings and keep to the proper etiquette."

He concealed the smile in his eyes and teased, "Hua Buyu said that if one loves deeply, one will indeed want to be closer to the beloved. Yan'er's resistance shows that she doesn't love me enough."

This time, Xin Moyan had learned her lesson. Staring into his eyes, she innocently asked, "Then how can we get closer? Xuan Yuan, do you want to? Do you want to get closer to me?"

"Me... Yan'er?"

Seeing someone's face turn unnatural and a hint of pink appear on their ears, Xin Moyan immediately covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Hahaha~ Xuanyuan, I didn't believe you when you said you'd blush! Hahaha~~~"

"So... it's Hua Buyu again." He said this almost through gritted teeth. He might as well send Hua Buyu to Qiyun.

"By the way, why did you suddenly ask Buyu to take inventory of the stock?"

"Well, I'm thinking of formally proposing the engagement in three days, and having her take inventory of everything at Junjing Pavilion so I can prepare the list."

Xin Moyan was startled. "Three days later? Isn't that too fast? Besides, you sent a lot last time, so you don't need to send any more."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "Yan'er is so dazzling now, some people are always coveting you openly and secretly. If I don't marry you soon, I will be worried sick."

"Brother hasn't agreed yet! If you keep acting first and asking later, he'll get angry."

"Who said that?"

Xuan Yuan raised his hand and pinched her cheek. "Xin Mo... no, I mean elder brother, I talked to him a lot last night and promised him that after we get married, we will still live with you and your sister-in-law. He has accepted me. And today, he was originally going to find the Empress Dowager to grant you and me a marriage."

Upon hearing this, Xin Moyan's eyelids trembled violently. Her brother... really agreed to her being with Xuan Yuan?

Most importantly, why did she have no idea that Xuan Yuan had met so many people these past two days? What did Xuan Yuan talk about with his brother? What did he talk about with his aunt? What did he talk about with His Majesty?

"Yan'er?"

"Oh? Um, Xuan Yuan, there's something else I wanted to ask you."

"You said."

"Why are you always wearing this? Everyone says that the Xuan King is dressed in white, which is more like Uncle Xie. Also, why does even His Majesty know that your name is Xuan Yuan? Why doesn't he call you Yuan Huai Xuan?"

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "If Yan'er wants to know, I will answer truthfully."

Just as Xuan Yuan was about to tell her everything, Xin Moyan quickly covered his mouth.

"No! Xuan Yuan, you said before that you would wait until I marry you before you talk about it. You shouldn't say it now. A few more days won't make a difference."

It wasn't that Xin Moyan wasn't curious; on the contrary, she had a vague feeling that there must be some unknown story or even a shocking secret hidden behind this. Otherwise, His Majesty wouldn't have such a special attitude towards Xuan Yuan.

"Didn't Yan'er want to know?"

"I don't want to know anymore, but you look good dressed like this, and I... I like it."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan's lips instantly curved into a beautiful smile, and his eyes became even more tender and doting. "Yan'er, you will know in the future that that matter is no longer important to me. What is important... is the person in front of me."

Upon hearing the last three words, Xin Moyan belatedly realized what was happening. She lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment before looking up, boldly cupping his face, and giving him a forceful kiss on the cheek.

"Xuanyuan, I kissed you, are you happy?"

Xuan Yuan caught the fleeting cunning in her eyes, gently grasped her waist with his large hand, and pulled her closer, embracing half of her soft body in his arms.

"I'm very happy. If Yan'er kisses this spot, I'll like it even more."

He moved his face closer, gesturing for Xin Moyan to kiss his lips.

"Well... it's settled then. You have to go back to sleep after I kiss you. It'll be terrible if your brother finds out."

After speaking, she hooked her arms around Xuan Yuan's neck, and her sweet, moist breath suddenly lingered between his lips and teeth.

Xin Moyan closed her eyes. This time, she took the initiative. She was too shy to look Xuan Yuan in the eye, but... she suddenly realized that she really liked kissing Xuan Yuan now!

He wrapped one arm around Xin Moyan's waist and gripped her neck with the other, turning the tables and deepening the passionate kiss...

Until Xin Moyan was completely out of breath, shaking her head with dazed eyes, "Xuan...Xuan Yuan, that's enough."

"It's not enough, no matter how many kisses I give you, it's never enough."

He kissed those hazy, innocent eyes, nuzzled Xin Moyan's nose, and the air between them was filled with warmth.

"Yan'er," a deep voice said, slightly hoarse, "I'm increasingly reluctant to leave you."

"But I'm fine!"

His lips twitched suddenly, his eyes gradually filled with helplessness and weariness, and he said resentfully, "You don't understand what I mean."

Xin Moyan was taken aback by what he said. "Then what do you mean?"

Xuan Yuan sighed again, staring at her earnestly, and said, "Yan'er, we are so close right now. As a normal man, it's inevitable that I have many thoughts, but I'm afraid you'll get angry."

"Huh?" She was a little taken aback.

Thoughts inside the body? Inside the body...

Xin Moyan glanced at his lower body subconsciously.

"Sigh~~~"

Seeing her baring her teeth, her expression filled with shock, Xuan Yuan's eyes softened, and he chuckled softly, "Yan'er, were you frightened? I didn't lay a hand on you this time, but this body of mine is always like this, and I don't know what to do. Can Yan'er understand how I feel?"

Xin Moyan stared intently at that spot and nodded mechanically. She had some knowledge of male and female biology, but seeing it so directly for the first time was truly unexpected.

"Yan'er?"

Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Xuan Yuan felt annoyed; he had acted too hastily.

With a wave of his hand, his wide robe covered the conspicuous spot. "Yan'er, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. You rest well, I'll go back first."

He quickly stood up and took a step back.

"Xuan Yuan, why are you apologizing?"

"I……"

A bright, radiant smile spread across her still-rosy cheeks as she said, "Don't be embarrassed, it's a normal reaction, I understand, um... once we're officially married, then..."
