Chapter 630: Chapter 630: Personal Experience The world was quiet late at night. Leng Yu Yan sat on the bed and wondered if he had used the rumors to deceive her because he lusted after her body since she did not want to go through with “that.” Ye Yiheng, having washed up in the bathing room, came out slowly and saw her spacing out on the bed. He found a topic to broach, “Yanyan’s medicinal porridge is excellent. I’ve had quite a bit for lunch and dinner, my throat feels much better.” Hearing his voice, Leng Yu Yan came back to her senses and got off the bed to support him. “Your Highness should take more care from now on. You already have a cold disease, and the alternating hot and cold can easily cause a fiery rush to the heart.” Ye Yiheng replied softly, “It’s only because I saw you were leaving that I got so agitated.” The two of them got into bed and lay down separately. Leng Yu Yan, as usual, kept a distance of about an inch from him. Ye Yiheng turned to face her, looking at her profile, “Look, I coughed up blood. We can’t consummate the marriage today.” His voice carried a self-deprecating tone. Leng Yu Yan’s heart softened, and she turned as well, stretching out her hand to cover his lips, “Don’t talk like that, I’m not just scared, I’m also… not ready yet.” As soon as she touched his soft and cool lips, she quickly withdrew her hand. “If you don’t want to, I won’t touch you,” he said after a pause, “Actually, you don’t have to be afraid, I can be gentle.” Leng Yu Yan did not believe these words. It was not just because of the dreams, but also because in reality, he would bite and gnaw at her at the slightest provocation. How could she believe him? Seeing the expression on her face, Ye Yiheng spoke again slowly, “For instance, kissing… If you don’t consent, then I won’t kiss you.” His own tongue had been bitten until it bled. He had bitten it too hard, too deeply, and he did not know how many days it would take to heal… How could he freely kiss her then? Upon hearing this, Leng Yu Yan blinked. Since their marriage yesterday until today, he indeed had not kissed her. Last night, when she had moved away, he had not persisted. “Does this rule work for you?” he asked. Leng Yu Yan nodded. It seemed acceptable. “Then why do you still keep such a distance from me?” he asked again. Leng Yu Yan bit the inside of her lip and moved her body closer to his side, stopping when there was just a three-inch gap between them, and asked with a soft voice, “Is this distance okay?” Ye Yiheng moved directly closer to her, “I won’t do anything to you, you don’t have to be so guarded.” “Oh,” Leng Yu Yan’s body tensed up. At this moment, her arms and legs were lightly touching his, and yet he did not make any further moves, so she had no grounds for complaint. But now that she knew that he was a normal man, should she assume that he had the same strength as the man in her dreams, capable of tormenting her senseless throughout the night? Thinking of this, her state of mind was completely different from when she had been kept in the dark by him before. Her nerves and body were taut for about half an hour. During that time, he lay there steadily with his eyes closed, breathing evenly, apparently asleep. Leng Yu Yan took a deep breath; she had slept restlessly the night before and now felt truly tired. Her eyelids uncontrollably fought each other, and she eventually fell into a deep sleep. Suddenly, Ye Yiheng’s eyes snapped open, and he turned to look at her again. Her breathing was light, her chest rose and fell with each breath. He had pretended to sleep, and the lamp beside the bed was lit because she had been awake. Now that she was asleep, it seemed she had been on guard against him, vigilant until exhaustion took over. He had heard that virginal women, to varying degrees, would fear such matters, but he never expected her to be this frightened. All of a sudden, without realizing it, she wrapped her arms around his neck—truly a perilous move… What was more perilous was that the sleeve of her nightgown slid down, revealing an arm as smooth as jade lotus roots. Smooth and succulent skin glistened palely against the skin of his neck. What was even more dangerous was her breath, flowing in silky streams into his ear, brushing his cheek, entangling with his neck. It was May, and the warmth of the weather could not compete with the scorching heat that her breath brought him. Having her sleep so close to him, he hadn’t expected that he would be the one tortured. Ye Yiheng gently removed the arm from his neck, got out of bed, and strode quickly into the bathing room. Nightclothes were torn open, and he strode into the bath. The water in the bath was cool, slightly reducing the burning heat inadvertently provoked by her. Closing his eyes for a moment, Ye Yiheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and slapped the water with his palm… The day for the third visit after marriage finally arrived. The return gift Ye Yiheng prepared for her couldn’t have a single fault found, for which Leng Yu Yan was very grateful. Moreover, during these past few days, he had indeed not laid a hand on her, not even a kiss, which caused Leng Yu Yan to start wondering if there were essential differences between the real him and the him from the dreams of her previous life. The Eastern Palace Carriage arrived at the Prince Zhenbei Mansion, and before Ye Yiheng and Leng Yu Yan could get off, they heard the Lai Family members at the gate welcoming them in unison, “We welcome Your Highness the Crown Prince and Crown Prince Consort!” Assisted by Leng Yu Yan, Ye Yiheng got out of the carriage, his eyes covered with a red silk veil just like on their wedding day, both of them dressed in vermillion robes. Lai Taihong took the lead in performing the ritual. Given his status, he could have been excused from the ritual, but for Ye Yiheng’s future as Crown Prince, Lai Taihong led the Prince Zhenbei Mansion staff in respectful greetings to Ye Yiheng and Leng Yu Yan. The spectators who had come to watch followed suit in offering their greetings. Ye Yiheng and Leng Yu Yan stepped forward briskly. “Grandfather, Grandmother-in-law, Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, please rise quickly!” “Grandfather, Grandmother, Father King, mother, please rise quickly!” Then Ye Yiheng said to those around, “Everyone, please rise.” The crowd acknowledged. It wasn’t long before the Crown Prince couple and the Lai Family entered the Prince Mansion. Inside the main hall, tea and snacks had already been laid out. The whole family sat down and began to chat casually. Ye Jiu noticed that Leng Yu Yan was excessively shy in her interactions with the Sixth Brother, the Crown Prince, thinking that they had not been before, so she pulled Leng Yu Yan aside to whisper. The two of them left the main hall and strolled leisurely through the garden of the mansion. After walking for a while, Ye Jiu got straight to the point, “You and my Sixth Brother are acting quite strangely, it wasn’t before, tell me, what’s going on?” Leng Yu Yan whispered into Ye Jiu’s ear, “…” “What?” Ye Jiu exclaimed, “The Sixth Brother actually has no hidden ailments!” Leng Yu Yan nodded with a red face, “Keep your voice down.” Ye Jiu lowered her voice, “Then have you consummated the marriage?” Leng Yu Yan honestly said, “No.” Ye Jiu was puzzled, “Why not?” Leng Yu Yan frankly stated, “I don’t want to.” “You’ve been sleeping separately?” “No, we still share the bed.” Ye Jiu was surprised, “The Sixth Brother can bear it?” “I don’t know, but in any case, he hasn’t touched me.” Ye Jiu took Leng Yu Yan’s hand, led her to a pavilion, sent away the palace maids and maidservants, and said, “In such matters, if a man endures for too long, it’s also not good.” “Uh…” Leng Yu Yan’s eyebrows slightly knitted. Chapters fırst released on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⚫𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵 She wasn’t a doctor in this matter, she hadn’t studied deeply, and she really wasn’t clear about this point. “Of course, I am on your side, I am your family!” Ye Jiu cheerfully said, “He deserved to endure a bit more for deceiving people.” As she spoke, Ye Jiu laughed out loud. While laughing, Ye Jiu suddenly stopped, became serious, and whispered, “Yan’er, I’m telling you, having no hidden ailments is one thing, but whether he’s truly capable, you’ll only know through personal experience. Your judgment alone can’t explain everything.” “Ah?” Leng Yu Yan was puzzled, “Clarify what you mean.” “Let me give you an analogy, like a watermelon that looks good on the outside, but once cut open you find it’s not ripe; or like a sugarcane that looks straight, strong and juicy, but when bitten into, it lacks any sweetness,” Ye Jiu said with meaningful laughter.
