Warm medicine emits fragrance

"So, you can only stay by my side, understand?"

His words made Fan Liuer's heart tighten, and she couldn't help but ponder, could it be that he had discovered what she had been thinking about all along?

That shouldn't be the case. She hasn't told anyone. He can't possibly have mind-reading abilities, can he?

Li Chenbi is as cunning as a fox; he's definitely trying to trick her. She can't afford to lose her composure.

Reaching out to hug Li Chenbi, Fan Liuer buried her face in his chest, saying, "What are you saying, Second Master? Of course I'll only stay by your side."

Li Chenbi was very satisfied with her answer. He hugged her, and the two stood together for a while.

As they held each other, Li Chenbi couldn't help but start touching Fan Liuer inappropriately.

Her flesh was so pleasing to the eye; once you touched it, you couldn't bear to let go. You'd touch this, pinch that, and as you pinched, your hand would automatically wander to places it shouldn't.

Li Chenbi paused when he felt the softness under his palm.

Releasing Fan Liuer, he coughed lightly, "Let's walk around and stretch our legs a bit."

Fan Liuer frowned upon hearing this, "How can you go back on your word? Didn't you say you wouldn't move if you didn't want to?"

Li Chenbi led her down by the hand, looking at her and asking, "Use your feet or your hands, the choice is yours."

Fan Liuer quickly withdrew her hand as if she had been burned.

"Move...move your feet."

Accompanied by Li Chenbi, the honest Fan Liuer walked around the house for a quarter of an hour before Li Chenbi let her sit down, while he went to the courtyard to practice his sword for a while.

Fan Liuer knew that Li Chenbi knew martial arts, but he could only practice in the winter and not in the summer.

Fan Liuer sat on the chair by the window, listening to the sound of swords being swung outside, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

It's such a cold day, and she can't see it, which is a bit of a pity.

Winter nights come quickly, and time seems to pass quickly too; before long, it's dark.

After Li Chenbi finished practicing his sword and washed up, he entered the room to find Fan Liuer already asleep in bed.

In a daze, she felt someone taking off her clothes.

She half-opened her eyes, and in the dim light of the room, she made out the person in front of her, muttering with dissatisfaction, "No..."

As she spoke, she reached out to push Li Chenbi's hand away.

Li Chenbi lay beside her, and upon hearing this, he gently bit her ear and whispered in her ear, "Didn't you want to know what mischief I was up to?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Liuer's mind cleared up a bit, but it still took her a while to realize the meaning behind his words.

This person kept looking at her and smiling all morning, and Fan Liu'er suspected that he was up to no good.

He said she would find out that night.

It's evening now...

Fan Liuer's drowsiness vanished instantly. She opened her eyes wide and stared at him. "What are you going to do?"

"I'm telling you, it's not possible right now, I'm not feeling well."

Li Chenbi sat up halfway, supporting himself on one side of her, and reached out to unbutton her clothes. "I won't do it."

Fan Liuer grabbed his hand. "What are you doing?"

Fan Liuer was no match for him. Li Chenbi restrained her hands with one hand and began to unpack his nighttime dessert with the other.

The dessert was soft, tender, sweet, and delicious, and Li Chenbi ate it with great satisfaction.

Fan Liuer cursed Li Chenbi in her heart, but when she saw that he did not make any other move, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She was terrified. She thought Li Chenbi was so unrestrained that he wouldn't even spare her on a day like today.

However, she underestimated Li Chenbi. Just when she thought Li Chenbi would let her go after he had eaten, Li Chenbi lifted the blanket and sat down on the opposite side of her.

Fan Liuer didn't understand what he meant, but she had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. She pulled her legs back, sat up on the bed, and curled up in a ball at the head of the bed, her clothes still on.

"What...what are you going to do?"

Li Chenbi leaned closer to her, "I told you, I won't do it."

Fan Liuer pointed at him angrily and said, "Is this the sign of someone who refuses to cooperate?"

She had made up her mind: if Li Chenbi was really that beastly, she would definitely kick him, kick him in the face.

However, Li Chenbi's next move left Fan Liuer puzzled.

He did not move any closer, but instead knelt down in front of Fan Liuer, staring down at her feet.

Fan Liuer soaked her feet before bed, making sure they were warm before going to bed. Since she was sleeping with Li Chenbi, it wasn't cold, as Li Chenbi would keep her feet warm between his calves every night, so she didn't wear socks.

Both feet are bare now.

A woman's private parts are not to be seen by anyone other than her husband. Li Chenbi staring at her feet like this made her feel ashamed as he usually stared at her front.

My toes are curled up uncomfortably.

"you...."

Before she could even open her mouth, Li Chenbi reached out and grabbed her foot.

Then, in Fan Liuer's wide-open eyes, Li Chenbi picked up her foot and kissed the instep of her foot.

"You, you, you..."

Fan Liuer was too shocked to speak.

A slight pain suddenly shot through the back of her foot; the person had bitten her.

Fan Liuer, recovering from her shock, exclaimed, "Li Chenbi, you are simply... utterly outrageous!"

Li Chenbi released her legs, leaned down, pinched her chin, and placed a kiss on her lips.

Pressing his lips against hers, he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Is that so? Then you'll have to be absurd with me."

"I won't..."

Li Chenbi swallowed the rest of what he was about to say.

When Fan Liuer woke up the next morning, she was still angry and ignored Li Chenbi.

Li Chenbi initially tried to comfort her, but eventually said with some helplessness, "I haven't even looked down on you, yet you look down on yourself like this?"

"Could it be that your feet are poisonous? If they were, they'd poison me first."

Fan Liuer now truly wishes she had poison on her feet, preferably a mute-inducing drug, to make this person mute.

Li Chenbi was quite busy today. After having breakfast with Fan Liuer, he half-coaxed and half-forced Fan Liuer to say that she was no longer angry, and then left in a hurry.

Fan Liuer finally had some free time and leaned against the couch, sighing.

"I'm so tired."

Siqing's expression was complicated upon hearing this. "Madam Fan, you haven't done anything today except eat. How come you're already tired?"

Fan Liuer waved her hand, "You don't understand."

Dealing with Li Chenbi was exhausting; his energy was simply too much for her to handle.

Now she can only hope that Li Chenbi gets busy, the busier the better, so that he won't have time to bother her.

Siqing shook her head. She really didn't understand Fan Liuer; she had gotten up at the crack of dawn.

After spending some time with Fan Liuer in the room, she walked to the door, opened it a crack, and peered out.

Looking at the morning light spilling across half the courtyard, Li Chenbi's words came to mind.

"The sun is shining brightly today. If there's no wind at midday, we can take her for a stroll in the yard."

Siqing turned to Fan Liuer and asked, "Madam Fan, the sun is very strong today. Would you like to go for a walk later?"
