The atmosphere of the Zu royal palace in the early hours of the morning began to be crowded again. Filled with servants and warriors passing by busy with their respective jobs.

Fu Xie Lan who was still asleep suddenly woke up. Her whole body was hot with her lower stomach feeling like it was churning making her uncomfortable at all.

​​

"What's the matter, Queen?" A deep voice sounded from the side where the girl was.

"I'm hot," she said immediately taking off her outer clothes carelessly.

Gu Yi who saw this frowned, it was unusual for Fu Xie Lan to undress in front of him.

The man decided to stay in Fu Xie Lan's room even though a special room had been provided for him. He didn't know how many times the girl had chased him away, but Gu Yi didn't seem to care and stayed in the same room as the girl until they both fell asleep.

Fu Xie Lan immediately got up from her position, stood on the side of the bed, then slowly moved towards the toilet.

However, her feet had not even reached the small room, a feeling of dizziness and nausea suddenly hit her, causing her to immediately close her eyes with both hands moving to find a handle to support her body so as not to fall to the floor.

Gu Yi's reflex immediately grabbed the girl's petite body, carried her back to the bed, and laid her there very carefully.

"I- I want to throw up," Fu Xie Lan stuttered and at that very moment, she vomited her guts, hitting the man's clothes. However, Gu Yi didn't dodge in the slightest, and instead, the man immediately channeled his mana into the girl's body, right at her abdomen part.

Being in that position for a few seconds, Gu Yi's brow furrowed faintly.

'What's that?'

Initially, he channeled mana into the girl's body went smoothly, but why was it suddenly like something was sucking his mana? And that's when he stopped what he was doing.

"What are you feeling now?" he asked the girl softly when she no longer vomited the contents of her stomach, one hand stroked Fu Xie Lan's hair which seemed already wet with sweat.

The girl just nodded weakly at Gu Yi's words. Her breath sounded very weak, her mana seemed to be draining by itself.

The dizziness that had plagued her was gone, as was the feeling of nausea. There was only a feeling of heat that seemed to have started to subside in her body.

"Wait a minute," he said then walked towards the door and disappeared there.

But only for a split second, and his figure reappeared with a glass of water in his hand.

"Drink it," Gu Yi pleaded.

Fu Xie Lan immediately got up and leaned against the bed. Received the water and then drank it down. Immediately a feeling of relief ran down her throat.

"Thank you," she said later.

"How about now?"

"Is it still hot?"

Hearing the man's question, Fu Xie Lan nodded, but seconds later immediately shook her head.

Gu Yi frowned at the girl's response.

"Only once in a while," said Fu Xie Lan, her tone sounding weak and slightly hoarse.

"Good."

"Rest then," he added again and stood up from his place.

"Where are you going?" asked Fu Xie Lan.

"My clothes are dirty, Queen."

"Don't go," the girl pleaded weakly. She didn't know what happened, suddenly she felt, she want to be near the man.

As for Gu Yi, one of his eyebrows rose again. It was unusual for Fu Xie Lan to act like this.

"Okay, I'll stay here," he said again sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Smelly," said Fu Xie Lan again while covering her nose with one hand, while looking at the rest of the vomit on the man's top clothes.

"Okay, I'll change it, Queen. Wait a minute," he replied and then got up again.

However, his arm was pulled back by Fu Xie Lan's tiny hand.

"Do not go."

A harsh sigh escaped the man's lips.

"Alright," finished saying that, Gu Yi slowly took off his upper clothes.

"What are you doing?"

"I remove what you don't like, Queen," he retorted, and at that moment his top slipped off him, leaving him shirtless and exposing his perfectly shaped abs.

Fu Xie Lan blushed, seeing the man half-naked made her feel a little embarrassed.

Though this wasn't the first time he'd seen the man's body.

While on the other hand, the man's top clothes were already flying ashes, Gu Yi burned them down and did so outside the window.

The man then turned and walked over to the bed where the girl was, his brow furrowed again.

Whereas it was only a few minutes ago that Fu Xie Lan spoke, and at this time, the girl was already asleep?

A rough sigh escaped his lips. back up the bed very carefully without taking his eyes off the girl. Suddenly a smirk appeared on his lips.

"Pretend? Hmm?" Gu Yi said to Fu Xie Lan.

There was no answer or any response from the girl.

"Okay. I'll go," said the man.

"Do not!" Fu Xie Lan prevented, suddenly making a sound with her eyelids also opening.

Cupppsss...

Along with the sound of the kiss, Fu Xie Lan blinked in surprise.

Gu Yi kissed her lips and now, the man's face was so close to hers.

She never thought that the man would do it while she was asleep. Even though she pretending to be asleep.

"Again?" he whispered sensually.

Immediately the girl shook her head as she pushed Gu Yi's body away from her.

Previously, Fu Xie Lan didn't know how to respond when she saw the man half-naked. She wasn't used to such a sight. Instead of feeling awkward, it's better to pretend to be asleep.

However, what she didn't expect was that Gu Yi kisses her.

"Why? Hmm?" asked the man, tilting his body slightly with one hand supporting his head, facing Fu Xie Lan.

"Don't you like it?" he added again.

"Stop talking nonsense," replied Fu Xie Lan immediately turning her back. It was a completely different word from what she felt. Seeing such visuals without doing anything made her body heat up.

Immediately the girl cursed herself. Sometimes she has such dirty thoughts.

As for Gu Yi, the man only smiled at Fu Xie Lan's response. He knew that the girl was embarrassed because he saw the blush on her cheeks. With her tiny body, Fu Xie Lan looks so adorable and it feels like he wants to... Ah never mind, he can't take it anymore.

Immediately, at that very instant he grabbed the small body and carried it in his arms.

"Don't complain or I'll do something more than this," said Gu Yi, inhaling Fu Xie Lan's scent deeply as he hugged the tiny body that felt very comfortable in his arms.
