Jiang Yu and Wei Yi Yi found a new closeness on their relationship while thinking on a different direction. They took advantage of the good mood to talk and deepen their bond.
Having a person to understand you and support you felt good. Especially so for Jiang Yu as Ye Ai Ning kept on acting like he is her greatest enemy for a few days now.
He thus decided to stay the night.
The servants busily prepare the bath while Wei Yi Yi run off towards the imperial nephew to go get her midnight snacks.
"Those are for desserts," she told him. Jiang Yu did not understand. Didn't they just had their meal? Also, how come it is the small prince that is hiding them?
After preparing the bath, Jiang Yu washed first. He don't know, but somehow he felt like if Wei Yi Yi got in first, she'll be asleep once he join her in bed.
Wei Yi Yi looked at her boss weirdly when he race to get in the tub first.
Afterwards, the emperor was left on his own as the empress took her precious time bathing.
Jiang Yu cannot help but to rampage around her chamber, looking for things to occupy him. He end up picking the file of papers that's littering on Wei Yi Yi study table.
The calligraphy is neat and the strokes are soft. The writing seems to belong to Wei Yi Yi. Jiang Yu got curious and read it.
When Wei Yi Yi came out, she saw him occupied and behaving at a corner. He only reacted when Wei Yi Yi settled to her side on the bed.
"This is?" he show her the writings on his hand.
It was a tale, full of adventure and excitement. He could imagine, with it's vivid narration, a world so beautiful despite being different from theirs. To think it all came out of Wei Yi Yi's mind. Just how wonderful is that.
"Oh, it's a story I'm writing for Ah Chen to read. I can't find books that are suitable for children inside the palace."
Not really. Those stories are from Grimm's Fairytale and Disney that Wei Yi Yi rip off.
Jiang Yu was speechless. All this for the little prince?
The empress is indeed attached to the imperial nephew. She probably longs for a child, isn't she? Remembering the scene when he walked in, their closeness, and Wei Yi Yi's effort, Jiang Yu thought, what if they had a child of their own?
Wei Yi Yi would make a good mother.
That's right, Wei Yi Yi is his rightful wife; his titled empress, while Ye Ai Ning is his beloved consort. If they could get along, if they could treat each other as sisters, does it matter who mother his eldest child?
"Wei Yi Yi..." he put down the things in his hand and move closer to her.
"Hmmm?" Wei Yi Yi casually replied. She was ready to hit on the bed.
"You have been wronged. We'll have our child soon." Jiang Yu touch her face and move even closer so that they are within each other's breath.
Wei Yi Yi: ?????!!!!!
He looked at her face, took in all her features, and sighed gently as he push her on the bed. Coming atop of her, he embrace her for a moment before he undo her sash.
Rapid breathe coming from his companion sounded before his ears. Jiang Yu thought she was getting excited and thus get excited himself as well.
But then her breathing immediately turn harsh as she called out for him. "Yo--your majesty. Chenqie can't... breath---"
Jiang Yu abruptly raise and Wei Yi Yi immediately turn to her side while gripping on her lapels. "What happened?! Are you alright."
"I... Yi Yi don't know. Empe--- it hurts.. it hurts!"
Wei Yi Yi crouch herself into a ball, her face turn purple as she badly gasps for air.
Not!!
Her instincts kick in and fought for survival. She's already being good enough to accompany his lonely ass to sleep and now he's actually jumping her?! This is sexual harassment! Even if he is the boss, we have laws for this!
What the hell! For people in modern time, it's normal to have sexual intercourse with someone you do not love. In here, it's normal to marry somebody you do not love and then have 'justified' sexual intercourse?! Holy fondue give her a break!
Boss, don't just add extra clauses to her work! She did not sign up for this! You have your harem for that! Just why do you think she's 'working' hard?
"Someone! Call for the imperial doctor! Quickly!" Jiang Yu shouted.
Oh wow, her boss is buying her act. How great is that? Wei Yi Yi deserve some acting award for this.
To be honest, she's a modern person and far from conservative. It's not like she mind.....
No! No! No! Wei Yi Yi mind! Really!
She's only interested in BL. The only pornography that she ever watched is hardcore yaoi.
Don't ask her for the impossible!
Wei Yi Yi did her best to act out while channeling the other 'Wei Yi Yi'.
'This is the man that dump you. He loves someone else. This is the man that dump you! He loves someone else! This bro needs you now!'
She kept chanting until a sharp pain assault Wei Yi Yi. Now, she really cannot breathe.
'I'm sorry! It hurts!'
Wei Yi Yi immediately regretted triggering this lingering ghost.
The same sadistic doctor came to take her pulse. He make some excuse like her sickness acting up and prescribe some tonics for her.
Damn, she was not prepare for this result! She should have thought of other solutions first. Something like kicking Jiang Yu where the sun doesn't shine or whatever.
Boss should be the one taking those bitter tonics.
"My empress, you should rest well." Jiang Yu tuck both of them under the covers. He embrace Wei Yi Yi as he slowly soothes her and run down his fingers on her hair.
Having experience the patience and gentle action of her boss, in a soft voice, she told him, "Sorry."
She's not.
