Gu Mian's eyes widened—so that's what he meant by tuition!
In a moment of distraction, Gu Mian was already pressed into the covers by Li Tingshen, their lips and teeth entwined as their breathing became more urgent.

Gu Mian's cheeks were flushed red; it was unclear whether from holding her breath or from shyness.
She dared not meet Li Tingshen's desire-filled eyes, the thought of his inability to continue pained her heart.
"I should go take a shower now."
Gu Mian dared not let him see her heartache, for her heartache would also hurt his male pride.
"Okay."

She played with Little Treasure all afternoon and, upon hearing from a servant that Pei Jinchuan had returned, went to his study.
