Transmigrating into a Big Villain in the Book

Chapter 262: They’re Husband and Wife

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

The night was quiet like still water. Ke Nuo was fast aleep next to Yu Xin. The candles had been changed in the room, which was lit brightly.

Yu Xin held his head with one hand and lay on his side, looking at Ke Nuo lying beside him.

His fingers gently rubbed Ke Nuo’s eyes again and again.

In the beginning, when he listened to that man and approached Ke Nuo, he was regarding it as a task.

However, when the crying girl looked up at him, he was stunned.

Her eyes looked exactly like those of Ke Ruan.

However, unlike Ke Ruan, one could read helplessness and fright in her eyes.

Although Ke Ruan had clear eyes, he always had a mocking and disgusted look.

Therefore, he approached her with some sincerity. He even had a morbid idea that if this woman could stay by his side, he was willing to look at this pair of eyes every day.

When the first ray of sunlight shone through the window in the morning, Ke Nuo was already awake.

“You’re awake?” A smiling voice came from the side.

Ke Nuo sat up. “Have I slept for too long?”

The palace maid was tidying up Yu Xin’s clothes. “No, you can sleep longer if you’re tired.”

His words reminded Ke Nuo of last night. Her fair face reddened, and she lowered her head in silence.

Yu Xin reached out and stroked Ke Nuo’s hair. “Be good. Don’t be shy. We’re husband and wife. I’ll ask the palace maids to come in to help you clean up and get changed.”

Ke Nuo nodded.

Yu Xin withdrew his hand and turned to leave with calm eyes.

The custom required them to enter the palace and paid respect to the Emperor today. Ke Nuo was brought into the carriage, where Yu Xin was waiting inside already. He extended his hand to Ke Nuo.

Ke Nuo gave him her hand and whispered, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

The palace maid told her that Yu Xin was the Second Prince of South Kingdom, Prince Xiaoyao conferred by His Majesty.

Therefore, she had to address Yu Xin this way.

A trace of gloom flashed across Yu Xin’s eyes when he heard that. He curled his lips and asked, “Why do you suddenly address me that way?”

Ke Nuo lowered her head. “The maid said that I have to respect Your Highness, and I can’t call you by your name.”

Yu Xin smiled. “You can address me that way in front of others, but when we are alone, just call me Hubby.”

Ke Nuo nodded and said in a hardly audible voice, “Hubby.”

Yu Xin gripped her hand tightly. “Feel free to tell me if you don’t like anything. Don’t restrain yourself.”

Ke Nuo’s love for Yu Xin grew stronger. “I know. Thank you, Hubby.”

“There is no need to say thanks between husband and wife.”

Along the way, Ke Nuo’s heart was filled with warmth.

After getting out of the carriage, she felt rather ill at ease, cautiously following behind Yu Xin at an arm’s length.

“Look, this is Princess Changle that Second Brother married.” Someone suddenly blocked their way.

Ke Nuo looked up and saw the person in front of her wearing a robe with dragon patterns. She knew who he was at a glance, but he was stout with dark circles under his eyes, which were leering at her.

Ke Nuo approached Yu Xin in fear. Yu Xin saluted the man, “Good morning, Your Highness.”

Although Ke Nuo was reluctant, she curtsied at the man in order not to cause any trouble to Yu Xin. “Good morning, Your Highness.”

The man swallowed. This beauty not only was pretty, but also had a sweet voice, which tickled his heart.
