Reborn as a paranoid regent's sweetheart

Chapter 242 Birthday Ceremony

"..."

So is it really okay for the mother-in-law to poach her own corner so openly...

"My mother also said that if I can't give birth to a child, you will look down on me."

"will not."

Shen Xi's eyes became sharp all of a sudden, even with a hint of disbelief: "You are lying, you are going to be the emperor in the future, how could you not have children?"

"I won't lie to you." Xiao Che said seriously: "Xixi, I will never lie to you."

No one can refuse a handsome and earth-shattering man, especially when he talks to you.

"Then what will you do when you become the emperor?" Shen Xi said in a muffled voice, "It's impossible for you to never have a child of your own."

Xiao Che smiled: "Fool, who told you that you won't have children? It's just a guess, it can't be taken as true."

As if... indeed.

Shen Xi was a little embarrassed: "Then what if I really can't have a baby?"

"It's nothing in case." Xiao Che said: "Shall we wait? How long has it been? Aren't there many people who have been married for several years and haven't had children? Don't worry, cherish it, trust me."

Shen Xi nodded, she also knew that she was too anxious today.

Obviously nothing has happened yet, but she has already made a conclusion for herself prematurely.

It may also be because the menstruation is coming in two days, so it is so irritable.

"Today is your birthday, I have prepared a gift for you." Xiao Che took Shen Xi's hand: "I think you should like it."

"What did you prepare for me?"

"You'll know when you go and see."

A trace of sweetness surged up in Shen Xi's heart: "Hmph, you know how to play tricks."

Xiao Che took her hand and walked out, with obvious helplessness and doting in his tone: "If I don't prepare a birthday gift for you, it is estimated that not only today, but also tomorrow, and even the day after tomorrow, my king will not be able to sleep well. "

"Am I that unreasonable?"

Shen Xi pursed her lips.

"Of course not, you are the most reasonable regent princess in the world."

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xiao Che led her into a dense forest.

"If you are afraid, hold my hand."

In this dense forest, the wind blows from time to time, the leaves rustle, and the shadows on the ground are constantly swaying with the wind.

To be honest, Shen Xi was still a little scared.

"It's obviously you who want me to hug you...Admit it, don't pretend."

Shen Xi insisted.

"Okay, okay, it's all a trick that this king came up with himself. It's hard for the regent princess to cooperate with this king."

There is an allegorical saying that "when Zhou Yu hits Huang Gai, one is willing to hit the other and the other is willing to suffer." Although they didn't fight back and forth, their flirting skills have not declined at all.

Passing through this dense forest, Shen Xi saw a nine-curved corridor full of red lanterns.

The promenade is surrounded by a lake, and there are various colored lights floating on the lake. At the end of the promenade is a mysterious house, which is covered with a white curtain. It messed up Shen Xi's heart.

The brilliant flames lit up the entire promenade, and even the surrounding lakes could be clearly seen.

"This...this is..."

Shen Xi was shocked by the scene in front of him.

"This is what I prepared for you."

Shen Xi took a step forward: "I...I like it very much."

"Go in and have a look."

Xiao Che took Shen Xi's hand and started to walk inside.

Shen Xi couldn't help asking: "When did my husband start preparing?"

"Your birthday gift, of course, has already been prepared early in the morning."

"Is this the original house in the palace?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Shen Xi realized what a stupid question she had just asked.

If this house is newly built, how could she not know about it?

"It was a little dilapidated at first, but I had someone secretly repair it."

"Then why don't I know anything?"

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be. It costs a lot of money to repair the house. Now that she is in charge of the central donation in the mansion, she shouldn't be ignorant of such a large expenditure.

"When I went to the Northwest before, I asked someone to repair it. It was not the account of the palace, but my own private treasury."

Shen Xi was thoughtful: "So you were already planning to celebrate my birthday at that time."

"At that time, I just wanted to repair a house. Later, this house was useless all the time, and you kept hinting to me openly and secretly, asking me to give you a gift, so you simply let someone secretly do it again. It's a gift for you."

Shen Xi will never know what Xiao Che was thinking when he built this house.

He thought, if Shen Xi remained the same after returning from the northwest, then he would lock her in this building forever and never leave him until death.

But now it seems that the original use of this building should not be useful.

"Humph."

Shen Xi let Xiao Che pull him through the long corridor, the lake surface was rippling, and the lotus lantern placed on it was also swaying left and right with the fluctuation of the lake water.

"Is the lotus lamp also set by your husband?"

"you guess?"

It was rare for Xiao Che to play such childish games with Shen Xi.

Shen Xi just knew that Xiao Che must have released this thing.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so hesitant to speak, hesitating.

There seems to be a red note on the lotus lantern, but Shen Xi's eyes are not so good, she can see it clearly.

Even the note is just a rough idea.

"Just pretend." Shen Xi was in a very good mood: "Husband, when did you start liking me?"

In such a romantic scene, it is natural to ask some romantic topics.

"Didn't you say you liked me first?"

When it comes to who said "like" first, it must be Shen Xi.

But to say who moved his heart first, it was definitely Xiao Che.

"Let me first say that I like you, which is different from when you liked me. This is not the same question at all."

"Since when did you learn to struggle with these things?"

Xiao Che had a headache.

"Don't you think these things are important?"

"..."

Shen Xi's eyes quickly filled with tears: "So is it difficult to admit that you like me?"

It is really Shen Xi's style to start crying when there is a disagreement.

But the offensive of tears is at least invincible in front of Xiao Che. Seeing her pitiful appearance, Xiao Che's heart suddenly softened: "You are really made of water."

"Then just say you like me..."

Maybe the moonlight is just right, maybe the night breeze is too gentle, maybe everything is just right.

"I like you."

The slender figure hugged the petite figure in his arms, and the two of them hugged each other intimately. The long light of the lantern made their shadows on the ground very long, as if they were as long as a lifetime.
