Yelyu Lie touched the Little Princess's forehead with his hand; it was still very hot.
Even though the doctor said his body temperature was unusually high, he could still feel the fever of his little wife.
Yelyu Lie was somewhat worried and quickly wrapped the quilt tightly around her.
He sat at the bedside, holding his little wife.
The girl in his arms snuggled softly closer to him, seemingly treating him as a human furnace.
By pressing closer, she didn't feel as cold.
Yelyu Lie held her tightly and found the little wife's hand reaching out from under the quilt, quickly pressing it back in.
"Be good, don't catch a cold." His voice was as gentle as he had ever been.
"Cold..."
Seemingly sensing that he was non-threatening, she obediently listened.
And pressed closer into his arms.
The room already had another furnace added.
Yelyu Lie's wedding suit was nearly soaked in sweat, and with more heat, the room felt like a steamer.
But, the little wife said she was cold, what to do?
"This is not the General taking advantage."
Yelyu Lie coughed softly, holding the cute little one tighter with one hand while the other removed his clothes.
Soon, his upper body was bare.
Compared to his wheat-colored face, his skin was darker and more built.
His shoulders were twice as broad and muscular as the average person's, with distinct chest muscles.
Lovingly encasing a well-muscled abdomen, veiled beneath.
Wild, rustic, the concealed area was even more mysterious and enticing.
Of course, at this time Yun Chunnuan was still unconscious, unable to see.
When she does awaken, she will surely shiver with disgust once again.
All she felt was seemingly sticking to a giant warm furnace, hard and scratchy.
Eloquent Liu Mei furrowed, Yun Chunnuan's hands feverishly thrust about seeking a comforting flat place.
"Don't make trouble!"
Yelyu Lie remained tense, desperately trying to ignore the unsettling touch of her hand triggering flames upon his skin.
He is a furnace, he is a furnace, he is a furnace!
No taking advantage, no taking advantage, no taking advantage!
Yelyu Lie kept repeating to himself, unable to resist this little creature... She dared to play with fire!
Yelyu Lie quickly grasped her shoulder, lifting the errant hand and wrapping it warmly in his palm.
The young girl finally seemed to find a comfortable place, neither struggling nor resisting, obediently letting him hold her hand.
The scorching little face rubbed and nuzzled tightly against his hand.
Yelyu Lie drew a deep breath; the sweet fragrance of a young girl permeating so closely.
Her exquisite little face was not only cute but incredibly charming due to the rosy blush.
The plump, soft lips were strikingly red from the fever.
Full, supple, emitting an irresistible gloss.
His Adam's apple bobbed as his heartbeat nearly burst from his chest.
He leaned slightly closer, consumed by an uncontrollable urge to swallow her whole, not leaving even a shred.
But...
Just centimeters from those red lips, he halted.
After softly imprinting a kiss, he tenderly cradled her small body entirely into his embrace.
His chin rested on her forehead, feeling her temperature with his lips.
Still burning, burning fiercely.
He wondered whether the doctor's words were trustworthy.
Currently, Yun Chunnuan only wore a red bellyband, Yelyu Lie's rough fingertips grazing her smooth, delicate snowy back, as if touching fragile glass, fearing to press too hard.
Only gently, gently stroking, providing warmth for her.
Though the feeling was too damned good!
Distracting him endlessly!
Still, not the right moment!
In the military, fortitude was never lacking.
Yelyu Lie quickly regained his composure.
That night, he nearly stayed awake, alternating between providing water and acting as a human furnace for the Little Princess to keep warm.
Occasionally, he checked her temperature.
It wasn't known for how long, but probably towards early morning, Yun Chunnuan's fever eventually subsided.
Her little face continuously began to perspire, tiny nose dotted with fine beads of sweat.
With Yelyu Lie as the furnace, she kept kicking the quilt away until his strong thighs pinned her small feet down, preventing chaos.
In her sleep, Yun Chunnuan muttered discontentedly, before drifting back into deep slumber.
Finally relieved, Yelyu Lie unknowingly fell asleep later.
Holding the cute little one in his dreams, his lips could not resist smiling.
Why does he like her so much?
Yelyu Lie didn't know.
Seeing her tears made him choke up, unable to continue anything.
Her fever frightened him; he only wished to absorb it himself, sparing her any suffering...
He felt very satisfied and lucky that no one wanted this marriage alliance back then.
Fearing his father's difficulty, he willingly volunteered.
After all, with so many women in his courtyard, one more didn't matter, kept like a sparrow in the home.
Unexpectedly, just one look made him fall deeply.
Why, Yelyu Lie couldn't comprehend.
He only knew he smiles in his dreams...
Thank goodness.
Thank goodness...
Reawakened by a sudden scream, Yelyu Lie was startled.
Qiao'er seemed to rush in frantically, with unkempt hair and unchanged clothes from yesterday.
She pushed open the door, stupefied by the scene that met her eyes...
The General... and the Little Princess... embracing...
Both seemed... practically naked?!
The deeply asleep Yun Chunnuan gradually awakened.
Her view was immediately blocked by a sturdy wall of flesh.
Tactile warning, indicating hairiness was alarming!
She glanced upward...
Yun Chunnuan was stunned, a scream erupted uncontrollably, "Ah—rogue! Bastard! You shameless!!"
Before Yelyu Lie could explain, her soft hand struck over!
The crisp slap left Qiao'er even more petrified at the door.
"Uh... sorry for disturbing! As long as the Princess is fine, this maid... this maid will prepare something to eat!"
She hurried outside, quickly shutting the door.
With her body against the door, Qiao'er felt her heartbeat thunderously.
Recalling the earlier scene, unable to help swallowing.
Goodness!
Goodness!
What an alluring and stimulating picture!
This is too... too thrilling!
Oh my, oh my!
She decided! She will also find a pale, handsome Central Plains man like the Princess to be her husband!
By then... sleeping together... black and white contrast, arousal stimulation, she will have all that too!
Qiao'er covered her cheeks, the dark little face displaying a faint blush.
While inside the room, Yun Chunnuan's 'ordeal' just began to unfold, currently ongoing...
