Due to what happened just now, Huo Jun doesn't have the mood to stroll around anymore. He goes back to Ah Zhao’s room and finds himself a book to kill time.
Ah Zhao wakes up soon afterwards.
Huo Jun says, concerned: “Do you have a good nap?”
Usually, his lady sleeps half an hour longer than she does today.
Still sleepy, Ah Zhao nods and says a bit unhappily: “I’m not used to sleep here.”
Watching her yawn with teardrops at the corners of her eyes, he puts down the book and walks over.
“Do you want me with you?”
Ah Zhao is confused. “What?”
As she speaks, he already takes off his shoes and gets into the bed.
With one of his arms around his lovely wife, he unbuttons his coat, one-handed, and lies down with her in his arm. “As you wish. Now sleep.”
Before Ah Zhao figures out what gives Huo Jun the impression that she is acting coquettishly for him before she sleeps, she is already put to bed.
But to be honest, since she didn't have a good nap, she is very tired right now. In his embrace, she breathes in that soothing smell and falls asleep quickly.
Looking at the one with a shallow breath in his arms, Huo Jun reaches out his hand and rubs her nose softly.
A quiet murmur stirs the air:
“Still a spoiled kid.”
Qi Jun waits for a long time in the pavilion but nobody comes. Confused, he returns and learns that his brother-in-law came back a while ago.
He rushes to her sister’s yard with excitement and is stopped before he even gets in, by guards that Huo Jun brought here.
“My Lady is sleeping. Please don't disturb her, young lord.” All the guards are expressionless in trim military uniforms and armed, who look quite frightening.
Qi Jun is clearly intimidated, but he musters up his courage and asks: “What about my brother-in-law?”
A guard answers, still expressionless: “The general is, of course, with the lady.”
Seeing the boy's puzzled look, the guard adds meaningfully: “Young lord, there are things that you can only understand when you are older.”
Qi Jun leaves in confusion.
When Ah Zhao wakes up, an hour has passed.
By then, Huo Jun is in a rest with his eyes closed.
Ah Zhao thinks he is asleep and watches him wantonly.
Hmm, his looks as good as ever. As she looks at him, she recalls how he stood up for her in the great hall and can't help smiling.
Then she looks at him again. Sure that he won't wake up anytime soon, she gets closer to him and kisses him on the lip.
“My husband is so handsome!”
She is about to move back when a hand lands on her waist.
She hasn't noticed when he opened his eyes.
“Want to get away after you’ve done something bad, don't you?”
With the strength of his arm, he picks her up and drops her on his body.
The two look at each other in the eyes.
“My Lady, you did me wrong when I was sleeping. Do you think you deserve a punishment?”
Ah Zhao didn't know he wasn’t asleep and felt a bit guilty when she did it. However, hearing that, she throws away all that guilt and answers with justice on her side: “We, we are husband and wife. What wrong it is to kiss my husband?”
Huo Jun says pensively: “That sounds reasonable.”
Ah Zhao thinks that's the end of it when she hears him again: “Then it is also just of me to kiss my lady, right?”
What?
Ah Zhao only feels herself turned upside down and sinks into the soft quilt under him.
