Chapter 67: Chapter 67

Taking a deep breath, suppressing the fire within him again and again, Feng Qiwu looked at her with burning eyes and said in a deep voice, "Alright, next month is our wedding day. Whether your cold ailment can be alleviated, we will know by then."

"Okay." Bai Susu nodded her head.

In the next moment, Feng Qiwu lifted her up and placed her in the bed warmed by a hot water bottle.

Then, moving swiftly, he stripped off his robes, even removing his undergarments, swiftly burrowing into the bed, tightly enclosing Bai Susu’s icy body against his own warm one.

Only then did he realize how cold her body truly was.

Touching her was like touching a block of ice.

Yet just a few days ago, her body clearly wasn’t this cold.

For a moment, Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but furrow his brows, a trace of worry flashed across his face.

Then, without any lustful intention, he placed his hand on Bai Susu’s lower abdomen, using his hot palm to warm her stomach.

Even though it was rare for Feng Qiwu to sleep with Bai Susu, he had no other thoughts.

But it was different for Bai Susu.

A constant flow of warmth radiated from Feng Qiwu’s body, quickly alleviating the chill in her own.

And her once icy hands, warmed by Feng Qiwu’s stomach, soon returned to normal.

Then... she touched the firm, bulging muscles on Feng Qiwu’s abdomen.

Bai Susu’s little hand couldn’t control itself.

The next moment, Bai Susu’s fingers couldn’t help but trace one muscle block after another on Feng Qiwu’s abdomen.

The feel of it was just perfect.

Realizing Bai Susu’s actions, Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but have a vein pop out on his forehead.

Did she know what she was doing?

At a time , still teasing him?

His breathing gradually became rapid, and just as Bai Susu’s fingers slid down, Feng Qiwu couldn’t hold back anymore and grabbed her mischievous hand.

"Susu, stop it." Feng Qiwu said huskily.

Bai Susu instantly withdrew her hand sheepishly.

Then hurriedly explained, "I didn’t mean anything by it, just... just felt your abs were nice to touch, couldn’t help it."

Hearing this, a hint of a restrained smile flashed in Feng Qiwu’s deep eyes.

Then he whispered gently in her ear with a chuckle, "You’ll have plenty of chances to touch them in the future. For now, go to sleep."

With that, he gently kissed her lips.

"Oh." Bai Susu withdrew her hand with some regret.

But her hand had just started to retract when Feng Qiwu grabbed it again, intertwining their fingers.

Bai Susu couldn’t help but smile, gently scraping Feng Qiwu’s palm with her fingers before closing her eyes peacefully to sleep.

But Feng Qiwu was almost undone by her gentle, cat-like scratch.

This little one, she was getting better and better at leading him on.

Yet now he truly wasn’t in the mood to entwine with her like before, otherwise, he must let her know the consequences of teasing him .

Once Bai Susu’s breathing evened out, Feng Qiwu gently placed his fingers on her pulse.

Long illness makes the patient a doctor, so now he was half a doctor himself, able to diagnose and examine with ease.

But after checking her pulse for a long time, he couldn’t find anything abnormal in Bai Susu’s pulse.

Furrowing his sword-like brows, Feng Qiwu became increasingly worried.

Just then, Bai Susu subconsciously snuggled her cheek against his warm chest.

Feng Qiwu immediately held her even tighter.

Then he closed his eyes and coldly said to his other self, "Susu is not feeling well. If you come out, it’s best not to disturb her!"

With that, he too fell asleep.

Not long after Feng Qiwu fell asleep, Feng Qitong woke up.

Recalling the warning Feng Qiwu gave him earlier, he snorted coldly, "Do I need you to tell me?"

He wasn’t some lustful rogue who only knew how to pounce on his sister.

But what was wrong with sister’s body, why had it suddenly become so cold?

Thinking of this, Feng Qitong wasn’t in the mood to wake Bai Susu for kisses or anything else.

After planting a gentle kiss on her lips, Feng Qitong cautiously hugged her closer.

His eyes also filled with deep worry.

Hopefully, that guy can come up with a solution to the problem this time.

If not, he’d have to use that special way to help his sister.

When Feng Qiwu woke up, Ling Han appeared in front of him, "Your Highness, you should be going back."

Ling Han’s voice was very low, his gaze not daring to look towards the bed.

Upon hearing this, Feng Qiwu said in a deep voice, "Anyway, I don’t have to attend the morning court these days. If there’s anything, let someone come to the Bai Mansion to tell me."

Susu is sleeping soundly now. If he left, she would surely wake up from the cold.

Hearing Feng Qiwu’s words, Ling Han felt a bit helpless.

You haven’t even married yet, and you’re already planning to neglect your duties?

But he still replied in a low voice, "Yes, Your Highness."

He knew that once his master made up his mind, nothing could change it.

Bai Susu didn’t expect that when she woke up this time, she would still see Feng Qiwu.

Nuzzling against Feng Qiwu’s warm arm, she yawned on the bed.

Just as she was about to get up and stretch, she felt something was off.

Did she just nuzzle against Feng Qiwu?

Her eyes flew open, and in the next moment, she indeed saw Feng Qiwu with his hair down, his undergarments casually open, lounging lazily against the headboard.

Bai Susu was so shocked she widened her eyes, instantly fully awake.

"Shu Kuang? You haven’t gone back?" Bai Susu was extremely surprised.

At this time, wasn’t he supposed to be attending morning court?

Seeing her misty, tear-filled peach blossom eyes, Feng Qiwu reached out to wipe them while happily asking, "I don’t have to attend morning court recently. I can be here until you wake up every day."

Wouldn’t this make her happy too?

But upon hearing this, Bai Susu was slightly jolted.

"No need for morning court? Why? Was His Majesty punishing you?" Bai Susu hurriedly asked.

For a crown prince, not attending court is no small matter.

On a larger scale, this meant he was being ousted from the center of power.

How could she possibly be happy!

Seeing Bai Susu worried that he was being punished instead, Feng Qiwu found it both funny and exasperating.

Then he quickly said, "No, it’s because Father Emperor sympathizes with my recent hard work and gave me a special leave. After the autumn hunt, I can return to court." Official source is novel•fire.net

Of course, he was also well aware of why Feng Qingyang didn’t allow him to attend court.

Pretending to sympathize with his hard work was just a front; in truth, it was to prevent him from having another episode and causing a palace bloodbath like a few years ago.
