Chapter 69: Chapter 69

As the two were thinking in this manner, they saw Feng Qiwu sweeping a cold and indifferent gaze at them.

"Go and bring Susu’s clothes over here."

At these words, the two trembled slightly, then quickly nodded and obediently went to fetch the clothes Bai Susu was to wear today.

What they absolutely did not expect was that after they brought Bai Susu’s clothes, Feng Qiwu would personally take them and say to them, "There’s no need for you here, you may leave."

With that, he skillfully shook out the intricately styled women’s garments and walked toward Bai Susu on the bed. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel⸺fire.net

"Susu, I will help you dress." Feng Qiwu’s voice was as gentle as could be.

Bai Susu, hearing this, sat bolt upright in bed like a flipped-over salted fish.

Then she hurriedly said, "No need, let Chuntao and Nuanxia help me. How could I let you personally handle such a small thing?"

Chuntao and Nuanxia, almost dropping their jaws to the floor from Feng Qiwu’s words, thought–

Did they hear correctly?

The cold and ruthless Crown Prince actually wanted to dress their mistress himself!?

What secret did their mistress have that even the misogynistic Crown Prince was so well handled by her?

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears, they wouldn’t believe that the merciless Crown Prince actually had such a gentle and considerate side.

Feng Qiwu saw Bai Susu looking extremely wary, and his Phoenix Eyes slightly dimmed.

"Don’t worry, I genuinely just want to help you with your clothes," he said, but his gaze lingered on Bai Susu’s sore and swollen lips.

Thinking of something, the almost explosive heat within him began to surge again.

Bai Susu, hearing this, could only show an expression of resignation and disheartenment, saying to Chuntao and Nuanxia, "You may leave."

Hearing this, Chuntao and Nuanxia exchanged a quick glance and then left with eyes full of shock.

After they left, Feng Qiwu, suppressing his inner fire, moved forward with a mischievous expression and said, "So afraid I’ll do it again?"

"What do you think?!" Bai Susu rolled her eyes at him in exasperation.

He still had the nerve to mention it.

Look at what a state he had left her in.

Chuntao and Nuanxia must be thinking all kinds of things happened between them!

Seeing her speak with a hint of blame, Feng Qiwu knew he had been too rash.

But he couldn’t help it; what man, upon first discovering the delights of intimacy, could hold back?

With a curve at the corner of his lips, Feng Qiwu moved closer and gently lifted Bai Susu’s chin, teasingly saying, "But just now, you clearly enjoyed it too, so why are you turning hostile now?"

If you shut up, maybe we can still happily be boyfriend and girlfriend!

"You, shameless!" Bai Susu couldn’t help but scold in anger and embarrassment.

Seeing her fuming, Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but suppress a laugh, "Am I wrong? Should I help you recall just now who was moving their hands all over me?"

"Ahhh! You’re right, just shut up." Bai Susu slumped onto the bed, pulling the quilt over her flushed face.

She shouldn’t have been bewitched by his handsome looks, done what shouldn’t be done, leading him to mock her now, boo-hoo!

But how could this guy be so bewitchingly good-looking, with such a great figure?

It was normal that she couldn’t help herself, right?

She only made the mistake that all women in the world would make!

Moreover, moreover, didn’t she end up paying a "painful" price?

The one who gained the most was clearly him, yet now he’s holding it against her!

Does she not have any self-respect?

Seeing Bai Susu truly annoyed, Feng Qiwu then smiled warmly and said, "Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. The morning air is chilly, quickly get dressed."

"Oh." Bai Susu replied sullenly.

In the next moment, Feng Qiwu gently pulled the quilt off her face and drew her into his embrace.

Seeing her cheeks puffed in anger, Feng Qiwu continued softly, "Okay, it was my fault just now, don’t be angry, hmm?"

Feng Qiwu apologized, what else could Bai Susu do?

Of course, forgive him.

Because his voice seemed to have magic, intoxicating her heart!

She had fallen for it.

But Bai Susu didn’t expect that compared to the last time at the inn, Feng Qiwu’s movements in dressing her were noticeably more practiced this time.

For a moment, she couldn’t help but ask in surprise, "How did you get it done so quickly?"

Hearing this, Feng Qiwu replied in a nonchalant tone, "It’s not that difficult."

In reality, the reason he was so skilled was that he had studied how women wear their clothes afterward.

After all, he couldn’t let something so minor affect his omnipotent image in Susu’s eyes.

And indeed, Bai Susu showed him a look of genuine admiration.

"Even I often can’t figure out what’s what with these clothes, and yet you’ve mastered it so quickly. Truly, nothing can stump you, Shu Kuang," Bai Susu said sincerely.

The ancient garments of this world were indeed beautiful to wear.

But their complexity was equally true.

Especially the clothes worn by noblewomen, with various ribbons, layers, shawls, and accessories, one after another, made her head spin.

With Bai Susu’s praise, Feng Qiwu felt elated inside, though he maintained a calm exterior, "Susu, you overpraise me."

Yet inside, he was immensely grateful he had prepared in advance.

Once the two had freshened up, Chuntao cautiously entered to ask, "Miss, will the Crown Prince have breakfast here?"

Hearing this, Bai Susu looked towards Feng Qiwu.

Feng Qiwu nodded, "I’ll have breakfast with you before returning."

"Okay." Bai Susu nodded.

And just then, Nuanxia, tidying up the bed, saw that while there was no blood on the sheets, there was a damp stain, instantly blushing.

She suddenly felt a chill down her back.

Knowing it was the Crown Prince giving her a cold stare, Nuanxia’s body stiffened, then she hurriedly and deftly rolled up the soiled sheets, pretending as if nothing happened, and finished making the bed.

At the same time, in Jinluan Hall.

Seeing that Feng Qiwu indeed did not come to court this morning, many secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wishing Feng Qiwu would never come to court again.

After arriving and not seeing Feng Qiwu’s figure, Feng Qingyang also displayed a look of satisfaction.

See, just a word from him had the Crown Prince staying away from the center of the court.

As long as he was alive, even if the Crown Prince were a dragon, he must curl up; if a tiger, lie down.

He couldn’t believe that Da Qin would truly end up perishing in three years just because Feng Qiwu was absent, as that damned woman had claimed.
