Seeing Ling Xiyue taking his hand, He Tingxi's heart instantly blossomed with joy.
He easily pulled Ling Xiyue to sit on his lap and put his arms around her waist.
"Do you feel how good it is to have me now? Didn't you have this feeling before?" He Tingxi deliberately looked unhappy.
Seeing that He Tingxi had a gloomy face, Ling Xiyue was afraid that He Tingxi would have wild thoughts again, so she hurried to comfort him.
"Yes, it has always been there, but I just didn't say it before. Tingxi, don't think too much about it." Ling Xiyue deliberately touched He Tingxi's face with her hand and said softly.
"Really? Okay then." He Tingxi slowly smiled.
When Ling Xiyue was looking at He Tingxi, He Tingxi happened to be looking at Ling Xiyue, and their eyes met.
After looking at each other for a while, Ling Xiyue noticed that He Tingxi's eyes were burning. She felt a little embarrassed and prepared to look away.
But at this moment, He Tingxi kissed her lips passionately. After a moment of shock, Ling Xiyue responded to He Tingxi's kiss.
The two hugged and kissed for a long time before reluctantly stopping.
But He Tingxi still stuck to Ling Xiyue's face and complained like a spoiled child: "Xiyue, you always make me unable to stop, what should I do?"
Ling Xiyue was stunned for a moment, then she lowered her eyes and said shyly: "Then why don't you just kiss me less?"
"How can that be? If I don't kiss you, I won't have the energy to work." He Tingxi immediately retorted.
"But now that I'm like this, aren't you feeling even more uncomfortable?" Ling Xiyue asked back.
He Tingxi, who was mentioned, subconsciously looked down at Ling Xiyue's belly and smiled helplessly.
"You're right. Well, let's take a break. We're tired too."
Looking at He Tingxi's helpless expression, Ling Xiyue said nothing more. She stood up and walked towards the bed with He Tingxi.
He Tingxi was lying on the bed very obediently. He laid flat on his back and slept soundly.
After looking at He Tingxi, Ling Xiyue also lay down, closed her eyes and went to sleep.
But I was thinking: Your Highness, he is really good and considerate. Even if he has any ideas, he can restrain himself and not hurt me. In life, as long as it is my problem, he is very enthusiastic to help me solve it and never thinks it is troublesome. I am afraid it will be difficult to meet such a good person in the future, especially when I return to modern times. Suddenly, I feel reluctant and don’t want to go back. What should I do?
Ling Xiyue hesitated.
next day
When Ling Junqi came to the study, he saw the door was closed. Thinking of what happened yesterday, he felt depressed.
"Master Ling, His Highness has something to do and will not be here this morning. He instructed that you can just work normally." The guard opened the door and said respectfully.
"it is good."
Ling Junqi nodded and walked into the study.
Looking at the huge study, Ling Junqi suddenly felt empty.
"Your Highness, are you still angry with me?" He felt uneasy.
Ling Junqi sat at his desk, working quietly, but he was always restless.
Around noon, Ling Junqi finished his work and walked out of the study.
When the guard saw Ling Junqi, he said, "Mr. Ling, His Highness has returned from the palace. His Highness invites you to have lunch in His Majesty's room."
"Having lunch in the queen's room?" Ling Junqi was surprised and happy.
"Yes." The guard nodded.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Ling Junqi responded readily, feeling very happy.
He walked quickly towards Ling Xiyue's yard. At this moment, he already had an idea in his mind and knew that things should be done.
As soon as I entered Ling Xiyue's room, I saw He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue sitting together at the dining table.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty." Ling Junqi approached and bowed slightly.
"Brother, you are here, please sit down." Ling Xiyue said with a smile.
"Sit down." He Tingxi spoke first.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Majesty." Ling Junqi sat next to Ling Xiyue very naturally.
"Xiaoyin, serve the dishes." He Tingxi instructed Xiaoyin who was standing behind him.
Xiaoyin immediately went out and told the maids to serve the dishes. After the dishes were served, Xiaoyin led many maids to stand outside the door.
"Let's eat first." He Tingxi picked up the chopsticks and ordered.
"Yes." Ling Junqi responded obediently.
During the meal, He Tingxi remained quiet and did not speak a word.
Ling Junqi secretly observed He Tingxi's expression, and when he saw that there was no joy on He Tingxi's face, he felt uneasy.
When he looked at Ling Xiyue, Ling Xiyue had a smile on her face, which made him feel even more uneasy.
However, he did not dare to ask more questions and could only eat quietly.
After the meal, when everyone had put down their chopsticks, He Tingxi spoke.
"Junqi, Xiyue told me yesterday about your marriage. It turns out that the person you are going to marry is Ma Lun's daughter. I was very surprised about this."
Ling Junqi subconsciously glanced at Ling Xiyue, and only when he saw Ling Xiyue nodded to him did he respond to He Tingxi.
"Yes. In the past, the Ma family and the Ling family were both aristocratic families and had a very good relationship. It's just that the relationship has become a little distant in the past year or two." Ling Junqi specifically stated the reason.
"In the past one or two years?" He Tingxi quickly grasped the key point of Ling Junqi's words.
"Yes, to be exact, since the Queen married His Highness, Uncle Ma has never come to the Ling Mansion again." Ling Junqi continued to emphasize.
Ling Xiyue looked at Ling Junqi and He Tingxi quietly, and couldn't help but murmur in her heart: Why do I feel that there is a kind of official tone in their words? When Ling Junqi talked to me privately, he was not so tactful, and he always talked about the matter. When he saw His Highness, he became polite. His Highness was the same. When facing Ling Junqi, he had a bit of His Highness's attitude. When he was alone with me, he didn't have that feeling at all.
After thinking it over, Ling Xiyue just sat there and listened quietly without interrupting their conversation.
He Tingxi nodded slightly when he heard this. At this moment, he completely understood what Ling Junqi meant.
"Okay, Junqi, there are no outsiders here now, only the three of us, so I will tell you the truth. I believe you already know Ma Lun's position. He has always stood on the side of the queen and has never wavered. Therefore, he is destined to be an opponent of us. Therefore, there is no need for you to marry him."
He Tingxi made his position clear.
"Yes, I understand, Your Highness. Don't worry, I have not broken off the marriage alliance with the Ma family. I'm just troubled by how to cancel the engagement. And I don't know how to deal with my father?" Ling Junqi took the opportunity to express his troubles.
"Xiyue and I have already discussed this last night. I plan to use a self-torture tactic to achieve my goal." He Tingxi immediately got to the point.
"A self-torture tactic?" Ling Junqi was confused, but also very curious.
"Yes, you are now working in Prince Yan's Mansion every day, and everyone knows it. I decided to announce to the public tomorrow that you accidentally fell from a height in the mansion and injured your waist. As for the extent of the injury, we deliberately did not tell the public and let everyone imagine. After there are certain rumors in the outside world, I will persuade your father to go to the Ma Mansion to cancel the marriage. I believe that by then, the Ma Mansion will definitely agree, because they have had this idea for a long time." He Tingxi said slowly.
