Having many handsome men means no worries; pampering them all keeps me in good spirits.

Chapter 102 Oh no! My husband brought back a male fox spirit!

Jiang Qingyan initially wanted to refuse, but since her empress had hurt the other woman so badly, she felt she should offer her something as compensation…

She gently wrapped her arms around Shen Yuan's waist, tilting her head back to slowly respond to his kiss...

Shen Yuan's kisses always made Jiang Qingyan unconsciously fall into them, and she couldn't help but want to take it to the next level quickly...

As their passion deepened, the two fell onto the small couch, their tongues entwining deeply, occasionally emitting soft, wet sounds…

Jiang Qingyan gently stroked Shen Yuan's muscular chest, feeling a slight burning sensation in her palm. She looked down and saw that the finger marks on Shen Yuan's chest were gone!

She thought she was seeing things, so she closed her eyes, then opened them again and looked down. The fingerprints were indeed gone!

Jiang Qingyan turned around and pinned Shen Yuan down, pointing at his chest and exclaiming, "That fingerprint is gone!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan looked down and panicked. Oh no, he'd been exposed… The dye was of terrible quality; he'd have to use a different shop next time…

His eyes darted around, and he gently took Jiang Qingyan's hand, placing it on his chest. He feigned surprise and said, "It really is healed... It seems love can heal everything!"

Jiang Qingyan twitched the corner of her mouth. A kiss is all it takes? Is it really that absurd?

Before Jiang Qingyan could think it through, Shen Yuan cupped the back of her head and kissed her again…

Soon, Jiang Qingyan was once again deeply involved…

However, Shen Yuan did not take any further action. He wanted to leave this matter until after the matter was settled in Xia Kingdom, considering it as part of his dowry for Jiang Qingyan…

As they were kissing, Jiang Qingyan suddenly remembered something. She raised her palm and looked at it, and sure enough, it was black!

Just as she suspected, the handprint on Shen Yuan's chest was drawn by himself!

She gently moved her head back, slowly withdrew her tongue, and frowned as she raised her small hand, saying, "Chen Yuan, you actually lied to me!"

Shen Yuan opened his eyes, looked at Jiang Qingyan's dark palm, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Hahaha... It's all rubbed onto your hand, so you like touching me that much... How about it? Are my pectoral muscles bigger than the Empress's?"

Jiang Qingyan's face instantly darkened. She must have been bewitched to believe that Mo Ting could leave a fingerprint by simply pushing him...

Seeing that Jiang Qingyan was truly angry, Shen Yuan put his arm around her waist and gently coaxed her, "Okay, don't be angry anymore. I know I was wrong, I won't lie to you again next time..."

As she spoke, she feigned grievance, saying, "It's because you're usually so cold to me that I thought of using this method to test if you care about me... Luckily, it turned out well; you really do care about me..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingyan raised an eyebrow. Did she harbor feelings for Shen Yuan? Perhaps…

If it weren't for her lingering fear of Shen Yuan because of the poisoning that led to the death of the late King Xia, she probably would have already taken advantage of him...

Shen Yuan raised his hand and gently brushed away the stray hairs from Jiang Qingyan's forehead, then smiled and said, "What are you thinking about with that little head of yours again? Can't you tell how much I like you?"

Jiang Qingyan pursed her lips and asked doubtfully, "When did you start liking me? Are you naturally attracted to men, or is it just that you like me?"

Shen Yuan pinched Jiang Qingyan's cheek and said earnestly, "I've liked you for a long time, but I can't remember exactly when... I'm not into men, I only like you..."

Seeing the deep affection that flowed naturally in Shen Yuan's eyes, it didn't seem like he was deceiving her. If this was also fake, then Shen Yuan's acting skills were truly superb...

Jiang Qingyan took a deep breath, gently rested her head on Shen Yuan's shoulder, and asked softly, "Shen Yuan, can I trust you?"

Shen Yuan gently stroked Jiang Qingyan's back and said softly, "Of course, if you don't even trust me in this world, then you have no one else you can trust."

Jiang Qingyan didn't understand the meaning behind Shen Yuan's words, but she felt that Shen Yuan had never spoken to her so seriously before. Now, seeing how sincere he was, she figured it must be true...

If Shen Yuan can truly help her resolve the affairs of the Xia Kingdom, then she will accept him as a disciple and treat him with sincerity from now on…

Just then, Eunuch Wang's voice rang out from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, it's time to go back for lunch."

Jiang Qingyan raised her head and responded to the outside of the hall, "Okay."

Just as she was about to get up, she felt Shen Yuan hug her waist even tighter. Jiang Qingyan said helplessly, "I have to go back to eat. I'll come see you again next time."

Shen Yuan shook his head, frowning as he murmured, "I don't want you to leave..."

Jiang Qingyan leaned down and kissed him lightly on the lips: "Be good, stop making a fuss. I already told the Empress that I was going back for lunch when I came out. Since I promised, I have to go back. I'll come see you again next time. Be good."

So it was so he could go back and have dinner with the Empress… Shen Yuan instantly let go of her hand, turned his back to Jiang Qingyan, and said nothing more.

Jiang Qingyan stood up, straightened her clothes, and looked at Shen Yuan on the bed, who looked like a wronged little wife. She couldn't help but sigh, "How about I take you back for dinner?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan immediately jumped up from the couch, quickly picked up the clothes scattered all over the floor and put them on, then took Jiang Qingyan's hand and said happily, "Okay!"

Jiang Qingyan was stunned by his smooth movements and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Your face changes faster than turning the pages of a book!"

Shen Yuan seemed not to hear her, and pulled Jiang Qingyan's hand, leading her outside while muttering, "Let's hurry up, I'm starving..."

Suddenly remembering what happened yesterday, Jiang Qingyan paused in her steps. She turned to Shen Yuan and solemnly instructed him, "Once we arrive at Chaoyang Palace, you are not allowed to say anything out of line, do you hear me?"

Shen Yuan's face fell, and he mumbled, "Okay... I know..."

Jiang Qingyan then continued walking back, relieved. Still puzzled, she asked, "Why did you provoke the Empress like that? I don't remember you having any past conflicts."

Shen Yuan frowned and said, "It's all because when I went to see you a few days ago, he deliberately made you make a sound... I've been so angry that I haven't slept well for the past few days..."

Jiang Qingyan recalled that such an incident did indeed occur, and couldn't help but chuckle, "So that's why... You really hold a grudge..."

Shen Yuan rolled his eyes at her. "Tch, it's all because of you, you fickle, heartless man. If it were just me, none of this mess would have happened..."

Jiang Qingyan chuckled and patted his head. "We've only known each other for a short time. Even if there's only one person in the harem, it would only be the Empress. How could I possibly know in advance that someone like you would exist?"

Shen Yuan pursed his lips and muttered softly, "You clearly met me first... you just don't remember..."

Jiang Qingyan didn't hear clearly and was about to ask again when she had already walked outside Chaoyang Palace.

Mo Ting and his two companions were playing cards in the courtyard when they saw Jiang Qingyan return. They immediately stopped what they were doing and went to greet her.

But when they saw Shen Yuan behind Jiang Qingyan, all three of them were stunned on the spot…

Mo Ting's heart skipped a beat. Just yesterday, they were at each other's throats, but in just one morning, her husband and Shen Meiren's relationship had become so good... This person is truly extraordinary...

Lu Nian and Gulimi were astonished by Shen Yuan's appearance; how could a man in the world be so alluring...

Gulimi pointed at their tightly clasped hands, her voice trembling slightly: "Oh no! My husband has brought back a male vixen!"
