That night, Chu Yang felt as if he was in a dream.
Even until now, he still had a feeling of dreaming.
He never expected that Tie Butian, as a generation emperor, was completely clueless about the matters beneath the bed; she hadn't even heard of such things.
So that night, everything was led by Chu Yang. Whatever he said, he only needed to say: Isn't this how couples are? This is quite normal...
Thus, Tie Butian obediently followed his lead. Moreover, she was afraid that she wouldn't do well, that she couldn't serve him as well as other women served their husbands... Her heart was nervous, and she shyly asked Chu Yang: Is that okay?
Chu Yang certainly enjoyed a comfortable and thrilling night.
But now that the passion had faded, Tie Butian was sound asleep. Looking at the beautiful woman in his arms, Chu Yang suddenly felt a heaviness in his heart.
Tie Butian didn’t understand. Chu Yang found it strange, but after carefully thinking about Tie Butian's background, he completely understood.
This formidable emperor who had ruled the world and possessed unmatched beauty, behind all that glory, had an incredibly tragic background, with pressures as heavy as the heavens and the earth.
She... although she was in a position of immense power, was truly pitiful.
Due to politics, she had lost her mother and sister, her entire family; due to war, she lost her father; because of her kingdom's political intrigues, she had no friends; due to pressure, she lost her childhood; now, because of herself, she had given up her own love and became a single mother.
These circumstances would have caused any woman, no matter how strong-willed, to collapse long ago. Yet Tie Butian endured through it all until now.
Chu Yang looked at the woman peacefully sleeping in his arms, her complete relaxation, her expression of unreserved trust made his heart ache: In her life, since becoming the crown prince, how many days of happiness has she truly had?
Even when she developed feelings for him, it was unlikely she felt much sweetness. Because at that time, he still didn't know she was a woman. Naturally, he didn't know that a girl's heart was beating for him.
Perhaps there were moments, like when she was pregnant, or now; after he arrived here. After uncovering everything, when she felt her heart open up to her...
But unfortunately, even if there were, it was so little and so short.
What could he give her?
Chu Yang gently sighed. He pulled Tie Butian's delicate body closer again, lowered his head to look at her blissful face, and couldn't help but lean down to kiss the tip of her pert nose.
Tie Butian murmured softly, shifted slightly in his embrace, her rosy lips moved a bit, but she didn’t open her eyes, just adjusted to a more comfortable position, continuing to sleep soundly on his shoulder.
Tie Butian slept until noon.
In all these years, there had never been a night where she could sleep so comfortably and relaxed; she hadn’t even dreamed throughout the entire night.
When she awoke, blinking her sleepy eyes, she realized she was still completely naked; she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Recalling the events of last night, Tie Butian's starry eyes flickered, biting her lip, utterly shy.
She lightly spat a soft curse; seeing Chu Yang asleep beside her, a wave of infinite happiness and satisfaction suddenly surged in her heart.
This rascal. Truly... fierce.
Last night, he had made her throw down her guard completely. Remembering the various strange... postures he had suggested, Tie Butian couldn't help but want to bite him.
But as she leaned down, it turned into a gentle kiss on his lips.
From today onwards, I, Tie Butian, can also be considered a complete and happy woman...
Looking at the red candles on the table and the red carpet on the floor, Tie Butian felt a daze in her eyes. For the first time in over a decade, she had the thought of 'it's so comfortable in bed, I don't want to get up.'
Feeling utterly lazy, she couldn’t help but want to lie back down.
Just then, she noticed that Chu Yang's tightly shut eyes moved slightly, as if he was about to wake up; Tie Butian hurriedly put her head back in place and closed her eyes.
