219 Was on Rong Zhan’s Mind
Gu Qingxue suddenly realized that this was the first time she was so close to a man when both of them were awake.
“Fairy, isn’t my father handsome?” Rong Han looked at the two of them expectantly and suddenly asked Gu Qingxue.
Gu Qingxue quickly turned around, not knowing how to answer, so she changed the subject, “Lil’ Han, how do you feel?”
Rong Han remembered that he still had to pretend to be uncomfortable, so she snorted again, “My chest is still so stuffy.”
“Let me rub it for you.”
“Let me rub it for you.”
Gu Qingxue and Rong Zhan said at the same time and then reached out their hands at the same time.
Before the two of them could even react to what had happened, their palms pressed on Rong Han’s chest at the same time.
Rong Zhan’s large palm had landed on the back of Gu Qingxue’s hand. That wide and thick palm could even completely wrap up her small hand.
Gu Qingxue felt as if she had been scalded. She quickly withdrew her hand and apologized, “I’m sorry, Your Royal Highness. I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Rong Zhan withdrew his hand as well. His face still looked indifferent, “It’s alright. You can rub it.”
Gu Qingxue thought for a while and finally reached out to rub Rong Han’s chest.
Gu Qingxue’s hands were soft and warm. In addition to her special technique, she soon rubbed Rong Han until he relaxed. In the end, he closed his eyes drowsily and fell asleep.
Looking at Rong Han’s cute little face that looked like a porcelain doll, Gu Qingxue showed a gratified smile, “Your Royal Highness, Lil’ Han is probably tired from the journey, so he feels a little unwell. Why don’t we let Lil’ Han rest here for the night?”
“Hmm, he’s staying with you?” Rong Zhan asked.
“Yes. My house isn’t big. If Your Royal Highness is worried, you can stay with me.” Gu Qingxue did not notice the glint in Rong Zhan’s eyes at all. Gu Qingxue continued with a smile, “It just so happens that there’s room for one more person in the south wing of my house. When the time comes, I’ll Invite Your Royal Highness and Nine to stay together for the night.”
The curve of Rong Zhan’s lips instantly collapsed. “No.”
“But there’s only one empty room in my house,” Gu Qingxue said with some difficulty.
She usually rested in the east wing with her three children. Tonight, with Rong Han sleeping with them, the east wing would be filled up. The west wing was given to Nanny Sheng and Madam Qi. The north wing was filled with Madam Qi’s property brought from Jing City, leaving only the south wing with Nine living alone.
Nine’s bed was very large. It was the kind of earthen brick bed. It would be very warm in winter. Moreover, there was a small table between the two of them, and the place was spacious and tidy enough.
However, Gu Qingxue changed her mind. The person in front of her was the prince regent of the current dynasty. It seemed to be unfair for him to share a bed with a rough man and even sleep on an earthen brick bed.
Rong Zhan saw Gu Qingxue frown and finally said, “I can live next door to your house.”
“Your Royal Highness, are you going to occupy a private house by force?” Gu Qingxue asked in surprise.
Their house was next to a large courtyard house with two entrances and two exits, which was twice the size of the courtyard house they lived in. However, for some reason, the large courtyard house next door was empty back then. Moreover, there were rumors in the village that it was haunted, so ordinary people didn’t dare to approach it.
Originally, she had planned to wait for the weather to warm up before looking for the owner of the large courtyard next door to buy the house.
However, before she could take action, this large courtyard had already been targeted by Rong Zhan.
Rong Zhan said, “I’m living in my own house, so what’s wrong with that?”
