to do anything to me. Qingqiu, go buy some tonics and come back. This afternoon, we will return to Lord Yongchang's Mansion and see them put on a play."Autumn arrives with a sound.Back at the elegant...After much to-ing and fro-ing, it was late at night.

Meng Jin Yao was exhausted, feeling like her body wasn't her own. She panted with a slightly open mouth, like a beached fish, gasping for air greedily.

Gu Jingxi looked at the person in his arms, her face flushed, her eyes misty with water, and she looked at him with a seductive gaze.

This look is so tempting.

Gu Jingxi's heart raced, a sudden urge overwhelmed him, but he held back, taking a deep breath to suppress the turmoil rising within.

If he keeps going, then he's really an animal.

After a long while, Meng Jin Yao finally calmed down. She had broken into a sweat and her body felt heavy with fatigue. She didn't even want to move, let alone ask someone to bring water for her bath.

She looked up at the man holding her, and saw that he was looking at her with tenderness and affection. She silently reached out and pinched him on the waist.

Gu Jingxi let out a soft "hiss," caught off guard by the pinch. He looked dazed and asked, "A Yao, why did you pinch me"

Meng Jinyao shook her head gently: "It's nothing, I just wanted to confirm, am I dreaming now If it hurts, then it's not a dream."

Her husband, who had been suffering from a hidden illness for over ten years, suddenly one day had sex with her and told her that he was cured. The feeling was like a dream. Even after three times, she still felt a little unreal.

She had accepted her husband's illness from the beginning and didn't have any specific requirements for intimacy. Occasionally, her husband would take initiative to bring pleasure to their bedroom through other means. She felt that this wasn't much different from a normal couple, except they wouldn't get pregnant.

The current outcome is a pleasant surprise for them. They can have their own child, and their husband won't be gossiped about behind his back anymore. Once they have a child, they will completely silence those people.

Gu Jingxi was pinched by her, and hearing her explanation, he couldn't help but smile wryly: "So you pinch your husband"

Meng Jinyao reasoned righteously and boldly: "But, when I pinch myself, it hurts me."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jingxi was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Then you still have to pinch your husband."

Meng Jin yao rubbed the place where he had been pinched, then asked him: "Husband, when did your body get better"

Gu Jingxi replied, "When I was on the boat"

Wen Tai Yi, that old rascal, is actually quite skilled at treating this condition. After I gave him the book, he tried it out and it helped his condition. His medication treatment time was even shortened.

When Meng Jinyao heard this, she remembered how dishonest that man had been on the boat, pestering her several times. Sometimes he would count stars with her by the window, and sometimes he would press her against the door, so that they could hear the voices of people outside.

This man is crazy, he really makes me cry.

Now she seems to understand. On the boat, the bed was probably too small, making it inconvenient to go all the way, so she tried every trick in the book to get it done.

Gu Jingxi caressed her cheek and kissed her lips. His gaze deepened, his voice a husky murmur, "Ayao, you said not long ago that you leaned against the window on the attic floor, just like me"

Meng Jin Yao: “”

She wondered, “Are you really Gu Jingxi, or just a rogue”

Gu Jingxi chuckled softly, "We spend every day together. Don't you know who I am"

Meng Jin Yao glared at him, accusingly saying: "You weren't like this before. When you saw me wearing thin pajamas, you didn't even dare to look at me. Now you dare to treat me like this"

"Where can you find a truly decent man"

Gu Jingxi chuckled, then leaned down to gently kiss her cheek. It seemed like he couldn't get enough. Seeing her stare at him, he stopped teasing and continued, "Since she is both my beloved and my wife, it wouldn't be right for us to act like monks – refraining from looking, touching, or listening to each other. That would be abnormal. Either you're a closeted homosexual or you're putting on a show, just going through the motions without truly caring."

Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyang remembered her late husband. Even when his body was failing, he still enjoyed being close to her. He liked to kiss and hug her, holding her as he told her about cases like stories.

Gu Jingxi said again, "Ayao, let's take a bath."

He finished speaking and first put on his own clothes, then helped Meng Jin Yao dress. He then instructed the maid to prepare water and tidy up the bed.

Meng Jin Yao glanced at the bed. Seeing it in disarray, the thin blanket creased and with a few spots of blood, she couldn't help but recall what had just happened. A blush instantly crept onto her face.

After the autumn chill set in, Qing Qiu saw her mistress blushing as she was carried away to the quiet chamber by the Marquis. She was momentarily stunned, but she didn't dwell on it.

She had also heard some noises outside just now and knew that something had happened between the Marquis and his wife. After all, she had heard these sounds in Weiruixuan before. Although the Marquis and his wife couldn't truly consummate their marriage, they still had some conjugal pleasures.

Qing Qiu took a step forward, ready to tidy up the bedding, when she saw blood stains on the thin quilt. Thinking that Madam must have had her period, she quickly cleaned it up and then prepared a menstrual kit.

In a clean room.

Meng Jinyao was truly curious about her husband's body before. Now, seeing it, she thought the upper half was quite handsome and pleasing to the eye, but when she saw the difference in the lower half compared to her own, she immediately lost interest.

It's those bad things bullying her, and she's still hurting.

Gu Jingxi saw the undisguised disdain on his little wife's face and was hit again, instantly doubting life.

No man wants his wife to see his body and show a disgusted expression. This would make the man feel that his wife is not satisfied with him.

He silently lowered his head and glanced at something.

It's actually not small.

It's quite impressive.

Meng Jin Yao noticed the despondent expression on his face, a little puzzled, and softly asked, "Husband, what's wrong"

Gu Jingxi said faintly, "You are not satisfied with me."

Meng Jinyao was stunned: ""

What's not satisfied

Has she ever said she's dissatisfied with him

She wasn't always so fond of him. Seeing his face every day, she still found it amazing, sometimes even thinking she'd struck gold getting such a handsome man.

Alright, forget about the details, just appease him first. Men can be quite childish sometimes, they need to be comforted too.

Meng Jin Yao took the initiative to reach out and hug him, softly coaxing, "Husband, don't overthink it. You're so handsome, just looking at you is pleasing to the eye, how could I be dissatisfied"

Gu Jingxi: "..."

Got it, this is saying he's all show and no go, a decorative pillow.

Isn't that how people flatter others to avoid offending them

Just like a mischievous child, you praise him for being lively and cute; or like that girl who is not beautiful, you praise her for her kind heart; or like a man with a full face of flesh and a fierce look, you praise him for his tall stature, mighty appearance, and masculine spirit.

Seeing that he was silent, Meng Jinyáo asked again, “Husband, what's wrong”

Gu Jingxi said lightly, "Ayao, I am not..."

Meng Jin Yao didn't know what he was saying, but she nodded along with him and agreed, "Yes, yes, yes, my husband is really not…"

Gu Jingxi: "..."

That's just so superficial, he must be speaking insincerely.e must surely pass the imperial examination.”As for Gu Xiumin, with Gu Jingxi's guidance, he is likely capable. However, she dislikes Gu Xiumin and holds a prejudice against him, tilting the scale in...
