Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife – o

"And, I know you don’t like cooking for yourself. After work, go to your parents for a meal, don’t just make do, and also don’t always order takeout. Xuandu City is already cold now; even though you’re healthy, remember to cover yourself with a blanket when you sleep. Umm, a call at least once a day, report your three meals a day," the girl tilted her head, saying worriedly.

The man hugged her, as if holding a small stove, feeling extremely close. A deep voice came through his chest, accompanied by a joyful laugh.

"Tutu, I’ll wait for you to come home. In Country Zi, take good care of yourself. Don’t take risks, if there’s something you can’t resolve, tell me."

An Yiqing nodded in his embrace, her small hand reaching into his coat, feeling warm, "Umm, okay."

The two of them tightly hugged by the bridge, silently gazing at the sea of stars below, and for a moment, it was incredibly peaceful.

However, just then, the ringing of a phone disrupted the blissful peace. Gu Yelin took out his phone and frowned at the unfamiliar number.

"This is Gu Yelin."

Whatever was said on the other end caused Gu Yelin’s brow to gradually furrow. An Yiqing leaned against his chest, and the sound from the receiver made her lower her gaze.

"Send me the time and place, I’ll be there in an hour."

After speaking, Gu Yelin hung up the phone.

An Yiqing lifted her head, eyes carrying a hint of chill, "Was it Edith?"

"Mm," Gu Yelin opened up his coat to wrap the girl in, "She said there’s something about you she wants to talk to me about, asked me to meet her."

An Yiqing raised an eyebrow, such a lousy excuse?

"You never liked dealing with women like that."

Gu Yelin kissed the girl’s forehead, "You’re in Country Zi, I don’t want her causing you trouble. Conveniently, I’ll use this opportunity to have a ’good talk’ with her."

An Yiqing leaned against him, her eyes sparkling, and she smiled.

...

An hour later, Gu Yelin appeared on time at Edith’s villa. A servant led him into the living room, giving him an ambiguous smile before leaving.

Gu Yelin’s eyes darkened, his whole body emanating a cold, sharp aura.

There was no one in the living room; he stood alone by the sofa, waiting for Edith to appear. Just then, the lights in the living room suddenly went out, and the door shut with a bang.

Gu Yelin remained still, cautiously observing his surroundings.

Then, a dim yellow candlelight appeared at the stairway leading to the second floor, and subsequently, dozens of candle lights lit up around the stairs and the living room. These candles emitted a fragrance while giving off light, with a strong, lingering aroma. Gu Yelin could tell there was an aphrodisiac component to the scent.

At this moment, soothing music began to play. The mellow saxophone melody carried a lazy and suggestive tone after intoxication, making one sink into it. He heard footsteps, looked up, and saw Edith in a red nightgown, gracefully walking down the stairs towards him.

Edith’s appearance was stunning, now further highlighted with delicate makeup, making her even more breathtaking. She wore a thin, red nightgown, sheer and flowing down to her ankles.

Edith’s face was filled with allure, her eyes carrying a misty water vapor. Accompanied by the beautiful melody, she walked step by step towards Gu Yelin, emitting a faint enchanting fragrance, the scent between a man and a woman.

"Dear Gu, can you spend the night with me tonight?" Edith’s voice was coquettish and sweet, any man listening would surely be tempted. But Gu Yelin only looked at her coldly, no trace of desire in his eyes.

"Is this what you had to say about Qing?" He slightly raised an eyebrow.

Edith laughed charmingly, moving barefoot towards Gu Yelin, "Gu, such a beautiful night, can’t it be just the two of us? I’ve been longing for you for so long."

Gu Yelin sidestepped to avoid the woman’s advance, "If the princess has nothing else, I’ll be leaving. Goodbye."

Furious, Edith didn’t believe a normal man wouldn’t be tempted!

Seeing Gu Yelin about to leave, Edith bit her silver teeth and lunged forcefully at him.

Unexpectedly, as if Gu Yelin had eyes in the back of his head, he swiftly dodged just as Edith lunged, causing her to crash onto the cold floor due to inertia.

The pain from the fall left her face pale, but the humiliation brought on by Gu Yelin made her want to scream.

"Gu... you hurt me..." She took a deep breath and looked up with a pitiful expression once more.
