Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 980 Caught by Husband, the Commander, on Their Wedding Night (13)

When Shen Shuyi woke up, she found that Lu Heng's affection for her had suddenly increased to 35%.

She gently rubbed her eyes and yawned slightly.

Lu Heng probably didn't sleep very well last night.

This is exactly the result she wanted; she'll make Lu Heng agonize over this every day from now on.

Her luggage was already packed. She wasn't taking any maids with her this time; she had the steward carry all the bags and packages onto the carriage.

When Lu Heng came out and saw her commotion, he raised his hand to his forehead and asked, "What are you doing?"

In front of everyone, Shen Shuyi didn't step forward, but said with a forced smile:

“My husband, we’re going sightseeing on this trip, so bring more things so we can have a more enjoyable journey.”

She didn't want to suffer through the long journey.

Lu Heng frowned as he boarded the carriage and saw that it was indeed fully furnished, even the tea set was complete, not to mention the exquisite pastries on the table.

His gaze fell on the stack of books, and his face darkened further when he saw the titles.

Shen Shuyi pretended not to notice, leisurely drinking tea and reading a storybook, and couldn't help but sigh that it was good to be rich. This carriage was so impressive and very stable.

Lu Heng had to remind her, "This trip might be dangerous; it's definitely not a sightseeing trip. Stay close to me and don't wander off."

In the past, when he went out to investigate cases, he would encounter assassins even with so many Imperial Guards with him. This time, he arranged for his guards to be disguised and follow him in the shadows, hoping that nothing too serious would happen.

"I know," Shen Shuyi nodded.

She was determined to go with Lu Heng this time. She was afraid that if she didn't, she would soon hear the news that Lu Heng had died on the way to investigate a case, and she would become a widow.

Zhu Jing, eyeing the opportunity to eliminate Lu Heng, was naturally eager to seize it.

“You shouldn’t have come along.” Lu Heng frowned slightly.

Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "We are husband and wife, there is no right or wrong. Only when you eliminate the enemy can I live a peaceful life with you."

Lu Heng looked away, and upon hearing her words, a subtle feeling arose in his heart.

He felt a pang of regret, wondering if he had been too harsh that night.

When I looked up again, I saw that Shen Shuyi had put down the storybook and closed her eyes.

Once the carriage left the main city, the road conditions became much worse. No matter how good the carriage was or how skilled the driver was, the ride was still inevitably bumpy.

Having gotten up early in the morning, Shen Shuyi was feeling sleepy and dozed off. A sudden jolt caused her to fall forward.

Lu Heng helped her up, saying, "If you're sleepy, lie down and sleep."

The carriage is spacious inside and has a couch where one can lie down and rest.

Shen Shuyi yawned slightly. "Mmm."

She lay down, while Lu Heng sat up, her head gently resting against Lu Heng's leg.

Before long, she fell asleep, breathing evenly.

Lu Heng's gaze fell on her.

The girl looked exceptionally peaceful and beautiful as she slept, and he gazed at her for a long time without realizing it.

Realizing this, Lu Heng looked away with some annoyance.

Along the way, in order to make it look like they were on a trip, the two of them would stop frequently, stopping whenever they came across a scenic spot to admire the flowers and eat local delicacies.

Upon arriving at an inn where they could stay, Shen Shuyi solemnly proposed to Lu Heng, "I want to stay at an inn!"

Her back ached from the carriage ride, and she couldn't take it anymore if she didn't find lodging soon.

"Waiter, bring me a superior room." Lu Heng realized that someone was following them even before they left the city, so it would be safer for two people to share a room.

Shen Shuyi added, "Bring up hot water."

"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

Shen Shuyi and Lu Heng went upstairs and checked into the best room in the inn, which was fully equipped with a bed and bedding.

As she was about to take a shower, Lu Heng coughed lightly, "I'll go downstairs and see what dishes are available."

"Okay, hurry up." After he left, Shen Shuyi went into the bathtub to soak in the tub and wash away her fatigue.

Lu Heng returned quickly, pushed open the door, and placed the food on the table. Separated only by a screen, the sound of rushing water constantly reached his ears.

He didn't look up; he just sat at the table, pouring himself some tea.

For some reason, the sound of water brought back the scene from that night to his mind.

Shen Shuyi's skin was exceptionally fair and delicate. Dressed in a thin gauze dress, she appeared alluring, like a seductive enchantress. Lu Heng felt a surge of heat throughout his body and took a large gulp of cool tea to suppress the fire within him.

He got up and opened the window, hoping the wind would dispel the sweltering heat.

He had never felt this way before, but since their marriage, every move of his new wife had been deeply imprinted in his mind.

Lu Heng stood by the window for a while.

The water has stopped. Are you done washing?
Shen Shuyi was still taking a bath, chatting with the system at the same time.

"66, do you think he's anxious or not?"

[With such beauty before him, a man is bound to be eager. My dear host, listen to me, give him some space!]
Shen Shuyi chuckled. "You're the fox sister now, okay, I'll listen to you."

When it comes to seducing men, who can rival a vixen?

It wasn't cold even in the middle of summer, so Shen Shuyi sat in the bathtub, closed her eyes, and pretended to sleep.

The man standing by the window paced back and forth a few times before finally speaking.

"Are you done washing?"

No one answered.

Lu Heng suddenly turned around and strode over. He stood in front of the screen and called out again.

"Shen Shuyi".

No one answered, and the man frowned as he walked around the screen.

As a result, they found Shen Shuyi asleep in the bathtub, her smooth, fair shoulders exposed, her face clean, and her hair still wet.

Perhaps she was too tired from the journey, she couldn't hold on and fell asleep.

A complex emotion welled up in Lu Heng's heart; he felt a pang of sympathy for her.

He shook off these inexplicable thoughts, went over to her and woke her up, "Wake up, go to bed."

Shen Shuyi remained motionless, only slightly furrowing her brows.

Lu Heng approached, without looking at her, and patted her shoulder, "Wake up."

"Hmm?" Shen Shuyi slowly opened her eyes and saw Lu Heng turning his head to look elsewhere.

She deliberately said, "Excuse me, I just fell asleep. Could you please get the clothes from the screen for me?"

Lu Heng nodded, grabbed the clothes draped over the screen, and handed them to Shen Shuyi.

One item is missing.

Upon hearing this, Lu Heng turned around and saw that the pink pocket was still on the screen.

He picked it up again expressionlessly, and the soft texture made his heart flutter.

"Get dressed and come eat, the food is getting cold."

"Thank you." Shen Shuyi took the clothes from his hands, her fingers inadvertently brushing against the man's warm palm.

Lu Heng turned and left, and soon heard the sound of water, followed by the faint sound of clothes being put on.

He curled his fingers and his Adam's apple bobbed.

Shen Shuyi came out wearing light and comfortable clothes, holding a cloth in her hand and wiping her hair.

She said to Lu Heng, "You eat first, I'll dry my hair before I eat."

Lu Heng hummed in agreement and sat down, noticing that the girl was drying her hair while her gaze was fixed on him.

He instinctively held his breath.

Shen Shuyi's black hair reached her waist. She dried it halfway before sitting down to eat and found that the food was quite delicious.

"This spicy and sour lotus root is really delicious. I heard it's a local specialty."

"Mmm," Lu Heng responded, then listened to her.

"There are so many lakes here, and the lotus flowers in them are all in bloom. They're so beautiful! How about we go admire them tomorrow?"

Seeing that he didn't agree immediately, Shen Shuyi said, "Didn't you say someone was following us? Let's find a secluded place and shake them off."

"Let them believe that we are really sightseeing."

Lu Heng looked up at her. "Let's eat first."

Shen Shuyi raised an eyebrow, "If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes!"
