Yue Chan's face was suddenly painted with a layer of pink. Tuoba Fei's few words made her extremely bashful.
"Women serving men and their own husband are supposed to, I …"
Yue Chanjuan said those words in her heart, but her heart was still trembling. As she looked at Tuoba Fei's exhausted and elegant appearance, her heart ached. He still did not know what had happened to Wang Ting and the Da Yue branch, but judging from his appearance, he knew that something big must have happened.
Within Tuoba Fei's eyes, traces of blood could be seen. He had lost a lot of weight.
Yue Chan couldn't help but feel a wave of heartache as she walked to Tuoba Fei's side and took off his clothes.
At this moment, she did not want to ask Wang Ting what exactly he had paid for, nor did she want to be alone.
The man in front of her was the man she had always dreamt of and treasured deeply. He was the man she had regarded as her husband.
To rely on him, to rely on him, they could only rely on him.
After guessing that the time was running out, Yue Chan's heart became even more dependent on Tuoba Fei.
Tuoba Fei closed his eyes and rested quietly on the headboard. There were too many things he needed to take care of. A few princes, various family heads, and court officials …
In the past few days, he didn't even get a good night's sleep. At most, he would only be able to sleep for four hours. He was truly very tired. In order to get everything under control as soon as possible, he had no way of neglecting. He had spent the entire night dealing with the affairs of the country.
Yue Chan half knelt on the ground. She lifted Tuoba Fei's feet and gently removed his shoes and socks.
Tuoba Fei slightly opened his eyes as he lowered his head to look at the docile and gentle Yue Chanjuan. The smile on his face softened.
"Your highness, I have been tired for many days. I have ordered someone to prepare warm water. Your highness, would you like to take a bath to relieve the fatigue?"
"Yes."
Tuoba Fei closed his eyes and answered lazily.
Yue Chanjuan walked out and told people to prepare hot water and add some medicine to relieve the fatigue.
Not long after, the servants prepared hot water and poured it into the sink. There was a bathroom in the bedroom, and in the bathroom was a sink for Yue Chanjuan to bathe in.
"Your Highness, we have prepared everything. Please move."
Yue Chan leaned forward to put the shoes on Tuoba Fei, urging him to go take a bath.
"Accompany me in the bath."
Tuoba Fei's wrist tightened and Yue Chanjuan's slender waist was tightly embraced. Her cheeks were flushed red and she couldn't help but lower her head.
"Yes, I'll help you bathe."
The woman who had long regarded herself as Tuoba Fei was willing to be this man's wife. Right now, she wanted nothing more than to grasp onto Tuoba Fei tightly so that he wouldn't suddenly leave like he did a few nights ago.
After the two of them entered the bathroom, Yue Chanjuan did not ask whether it was appropriate for her to do so.
She believed that Tuoba Fei would have a foolproof plan if he did that. She did not need to ask and was afraid that he would anger Tuoba Fei, making him abandon her like he did a few nights ago.
There was a dense cloud of heat in the bathroom, but no one was there. When Yue Chanjuan was usually in the shower, she didn't want anyone by her side waiting on her side.
The Wu Lan sisters were kneeling at the entrance. They didn't even dare to raise their heads. They saw Tuoba Fei and Yue Chanjuan prostrate on the ground with their heads touching the ground.
"You can leave now. You don't need to wait on me here."
Tuoba Fei lightly said. The two of them hurriedly kowtowed and retreated while crawling backwards.
Yue Chanjuan glanced at the two of them. She was not worried that her relationship with Tuoba Fei would be discovered by others. The servants here were either Tuoba Fei's people or the servants she brought back from the great kang.
In the bathroom, around the sink, there was charcoal burning. It was blocked by the stone wall, so the heat of the charcoal kept the water warm, making the water always warm. The stone wall was then separated by wood to prevent scalding the skin.
Petals floated in the hot water, emitting the fragrance of medicine and petals.
"I have ordered someone to add medicine to the water, it will help relieve the fatigue."
It was not the first time he was so intimate with Tuoba Fei, nor was it the first time he saw the latter's body, but his fingertips were still trembling slightly.
After taking off her clothes, her fair muscles stretched out her muscular upper body. Her well-developed muscles outlined a series of curves, lacking any excess flesh. There were many criss-crossing scars on his smooth skin. Most of them had already faded, and there was still a sinister look on his face.
Below the ribs was a relatively new scar. It was left behind by the Xumi Army to Tuoba Fei.
For many years, Tuoba Fei had almost stopped getting injured, but the scars from the old days could not be removed.
Yue Chanjuan's heart trembled violently. Why were there so many scars on his body? Some of them looked fatal. How many life and death experiences had he experienced? Only then would he have today's status and power?
His fingers couldn't help but touch the scar on Tuoba Fei's ribs, stroking it painfully.
"I'm tired."
Tuoba Fei's voice was low and gentle with an indescribable tiredness.
"Your Highness, please take a bath. I will serve Your Highness's bath. There are medicines to relieve fatigue in this water, so Your Highness can rest in peace."
"Chan Juan, you are truly unqualified to serve your husband. Are you just going to let me enter the hot spring like this?"
Tuoba Fei opened his eyes, revealing a teasing expression.
Currently, Tuoba Fei only had a pair of underpants on him. Although she treated Tuoba Fei as her husband and the two of them had interacted extremely intimately, they had never been husband and wife before.
Yue Chanjuan hurriedly turned her head to the side, her face completely red. She did not dare to look at him, but she could faintly make out his well-built and robust figure.
A splash rose as Tuoba Fei entered the hot spring. "Chan Juan, come down and help me bathe."
Yue Chanjuan waited until only her bra and underwear were left before entering the pool.
Tuoba Fei lay on the stairs, his head resting on the jade pillow. His body submerged into the water and a white silk cloth wrapped around his waist.
The white silk soaked in water faintly bulged. Under the bright crystal lamp, one could almost see Tuoba Fei's male symbol.
Yue Chanjuan's face turned even redder and her gaze drifted away. She extended a hand to help relieve Tuoba Fei of his fatigue. Warm water, because of the drugs, did indeed have the effect of relieving fatigue.
Tuoba Fei relaxed his nerves under Yue Chan's soft and smooth fingertips. He fell into a trance and fell asleep.
Seeing that Tuoba Fei had fallen asleep, Yue Chanjuan continued softly, her eyes filled with a myriad of emotions.
