CHAPTER 64: CHAPTER 64: A TOUGH GUY’S CUTENESS IS THE MOST LETHAL

Yun Chunnuan: "?"

If she remembered correctly, she already made an agreement with this Barbarian during the day that he wouldn’t touch her for thirteen months.

Why would he...

Her delicate willow leaf eyebrows gradually furrowed as she confusedly looked at the man holding her.

Seeing his expression, he seemed increasingly hurt and aggrieved.

Yun Chunnuan sighed helplessly, "Playing the pity card won’t work, we already agreed."

The macho man acting coy, it’s the deadliest move.

Just as Yun Chunnuan finished speaking, she saw the Barbarian General’s lush lips pout...

She involuntarily shivered and got goosebumps.

"Don’t be like this, I’m scared..." Yun Chunnuan rubbed her arms.

Yelyu Lie was speechless for a moment.

Alright, his first attempt at playing the pity card failed.

This little wife of his is really smart!

He knew that since she wouldn’t let him touch her for thirteen months, she definitely wouldn’t lie on the same couch with him.

But...

He didn’t want that!

Just thinking about the delightful feeling of holding her, he didn’t want to wait thirteen months to experience it again...

"I just want to hold you while sleeping, won’t do anything, don’t push me away, okay?"

"No way!" Yun Chunnuan sternly refused, even trying to get away from him.

Damn it!

She saw the wounded look on the Barbarian’s face, wanted to hug him and offer some comfort, but didn’t expect this guy was acting!

If this acting was put into modern times, he could easily win Best Actor for a melodrama?

"You promised me, don’t be so unreasonable!"

"Who’s being unreasonable?! Yelyu Lie tightened his hold on her, not letting her go, "You don’t trust me! I..."

"Exactly." Before he finished speaking, the Little Princess admitted directly.

That’s right, I don’t trust you!

A Barbarian who gets aroused just by holding hands, sleeping on the same bed, he might ascend to heaven!

In short, no way!

Yelyu Lie: "..."

"So, you’ve made up your mind not to let me sleep here?"

"Exactly." She nodded without hesitation, leaving no room for negotiation, "Do you have anything to tell me? If not, I’m going to sleep."

Actually, what time is it now? Yun Chunnuan slept all day, she might not be able to fall asleep even if she lay in bed.

But she’s a bit annoyed because the Barbarian deceived her! Pretending to be pitiful to win sympathy, just to sleep with her at night!

Listen, how is this different from the scoundrel’s line ’Just a little, not going all the way’?

Her heart pained seeing his wounded look!

"Are you angry?" Yelyu Lie noticed her expression wasn’t quite right, hugged her tighter, "I was wrong, please don’t be mad, it’s just if I don’t sleep here every night, who knows how people might maliciously interpret it, possibly affecting the newly established alliance between two countries..."

"Really?"

Have to admit, this reason is quite good.

Yun Chunnuan somewhat believed him.

Yelyu Lie said seriously, "Of course, even ordinary women sleeping in separate rooms with their husbands after marriage would be gossiped about, let alone your identity, with great impact!"

He saw the Little Princess furrowing her little face, thinking deeply, couldn’t help but curl his lips, quickly restraining himself.

Yun Chunnuan thought repeatedly, trying to find loopholes in his words.

But... What he said makes sense!

A Peace Princess, who just arrived at the home of her alliance partner, then pushed her husband to sleep outside.

Even if she doesn’t understand politics, she can imagine that it would be a very easy matter for others to take advantage of.

The Barbarian General likes her, willing to give her space and time to develop feelings, but others won’t.

If she really pushed him out, every night, he’d probably be laughed at outside?

"Then what do we do?"

Yelyu Lie brightened up upon hearing her ask, was about to offer his suggestion.

Then she said, "Or... Sleep on the floor?

Forget it, the floor is too cold.

How about... putting up another bed?"

Yelyu Lie’s heart, with her every word, went up and down.

Finally, the Little Princess decided, "Yes, set up a small bed, if you can’t fit on it, I’ll sleep there."

Yelyu Lie felt aggrieved, "Can’t you let me..."

"No." Without waiting for him to finish, Yun Chunnuan interrupted immediately, "Either set up a bed, or you go live elsewhere, in short, we can’t sleep together."

Yelyu Lie grew up mixing in the military camp, understanding one principle best—take what you get, never fight unnecessarily.

The Little Princess’s boundary is such, push any further, she might really get upset.

Separate beds is fine, at least still in the same room!

He can see, and he can touch, when it comes to sleeping... He’ll think of something...

If nothing works, he’ll just endure the thirteen months.

Can’t really let the little wife get angry.

So much trouble to coax her, especially when she gets angry and runs, his heart can’t take it.

"Okay, I’ll have it sent tomorrow, saying... it’s for my little one’s preparation! Hahaha!"

Yun Chunnuan: "..."

Nothing has happened yet, he’s already thinking of the kid.

Seeing him so happy, seems like it’s fine, right?

"Then today..."

Just as Yun Chunnuan was about to chase him out, she saw the Barbarian get sulky again, "Nuannuan, are you going to dislike me?"

"Stop that, acting pitiful won’t work either! Keep doing this and I’ll really get angry, we agreed on it but now you’re taking it back!"

Yun Chunnuan thought the Barbarian General’s mischievous intent still lingered, wanting to sneak into her bed.

He laughed with a touch of helplessness, "Nuannuan, you’re just like my mother, equally stubborn.

Also equally beautiful, with radiant beauty.

But, she was born in the Western Regions, was a Dancer..."

He suddenly started talking about his mother, Yun Chunnuan’s hands pushing his shoulders paused.

Yelyu Lie took a deep breath, with a face full of self-mockery, "Father fell for mother at first glance, heart captivated, brought Mother from the Western Regions to become a pitiful woman in the Royal Palace.

Since I remember, everyone around me, whether siblings or servants, without exception, called me... a bastard."

Speaking to this point, his body started trembling slightly.

Yun Chunnuan hurriedly grabbed the Barbarian General’s hand, he grasped back, laughing indifferently, "Ridiculous, just because I look different from them, my mother was a Dancer from the Western Regions!

They said I carried lowly blood, polluting our majestic King’s noble lineage! Hahaha, just jealousy!"

"Yes! Jealousy! They must all be very ugly, jealous of you, this mixed-race handsome man!" As the Barbarian General’s somewhat insane laughter echoed, Yun Chunnuan’s heart ached.

"You don’t know, back home, mixed-race individuals are so popular! Asian features aren’t that defined, Europeans too rugged, combine them, the babies born are incomparably good-looking! Like you, the most handsome mixed-race man I’ve seen my whole life!"

She exaggeratedly, made a great effort to praise him.

Even accidentally revealed too much information from her own era.
