After the divorce, I was adorned in a phoenix robe, while my ex-husband's entire family dug up

"Oh my, calling him 'husband'? How cheesy!"

Wei Zhaoning blushed. "Ashu, stop fooling around, let go."

"Okay, okay, you really are something. Have you been that busy lately? Last time you sent someone to tell me that you would be out having fun in a few days, but so many days have passed. I'm practically going moldy."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you've forgotten about your sisters now that you're living such a blissful married life."

Shen Shu released Wei Zhaoning and smiled.

Wei Zhaoning blushed deeply, "It's not what you think..."

"Don't tell me that you made this huge bed all messy by yourself. I'm not some naive little girl who can be easily fooled. We're married now, what are you being shy about?"

Shen Shu winked and made Wei Zhaoning feel incredibly embarrassed.

"Oh, let's not talk about this anymore." Anyway, Shen Shu wouldn't believe anything she said, and who knows what shocking things she might say next.

"Tell me, where do you want to go? I'm free today, let me get ready and then we'll set off."

Shen Shu still wouldn't let her off the hook, "Alright, alright, you've finally found some time after being busy making a baby."

I heard there's a new restaurant that opened by the lake in the suburbs. The scenery is beautiful, and the food is great. Almost everyone in Beijing goes there now. I haven't been yet. Shall we go check it out?

Wei Zhaoning said, "Whatever you say."

This restaurant is new and caters to the elite, just like the place where Lu Ze treated the dignitaries to dinner last time. The east side is high-end, and ordinary people can't get in even if they have money; it's all about status.

"It's really nice. This little courtyard is decorated. With the wind blowing and the lake in view, it's a shame I can't write poetry. Otherwise, I'm afraid a masterpiece would be born here."

"Sigh, I should have read more books before. Ningning, you have no idea how much I'm feeling; I simply can't express it all."

Wei Zhaoning chuckled. A place that even Shen Shu praised repeatedly must be quite good.

This is an elegant place. Although it is a restaurant, it is very quiet and refreshing. As soon as you enter, you are greeted by the scent of wood. The soundproofing is excellent. If it weren't for the people coming and going in and out of the private rooms, you would think that there were only the two of them.

The two chose a lakeside spot, ordered a table full of delicious dishes, and paired it with fine wine.

"Oh dear, you're getting ready, drinking doesn't seem like a good idea, I didn't think that through." Shen Shu slapped her forehead.

Wei Zhaoning shook her head. "What are you talking about? I didn't prepare anything."

After saying that, he picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Shen Shu then believed that Wei Zhaoning and her royal uncle had done nothing.

She paused for a moment, then muttered to herself, "That shouldn't be the case. We're sleeping in the same bed, how can we not do anything?"

I thought he had succeeded so quickly.

"Who succeeded?" Wei Zhaoning raised an eyebrow.

Shen Shu laughed it off, "I was just talking nonsense."

Wei Zhaoning glared at her reproachfully.

During the meal, Shen Shu kept praising Pei Yi, saying how good a man he was and how responsible he was, to the point that Wei Zhaoning was tired of hearing it.

How come she remembered that Shen Shu had always complained about how fierce the Regent was when she mentioned him before?

Suddenly, Shen Shu lowered her voice and asked mysteriously, "Ningning, aren't you curious?"

Wei Zhaoning had a bad feeling. "What are you curious about?"

The surroundings were quiet, with only the two of them speaking. Shen Shu even lowered her voice mysteriously, giving everyone a sense of secret excitement.

"It's that thing." Shen Shu raised an eyebrow.

Wei Zhaoning: "In broad daylight, aren't you ashamed?"

"I treat you like a good sister, and I share my experiences with you. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't bring up this topic even if it meant my death."

Wei Zhaoning pursed her lips.

"Let me tell you, if a man can do that, we women can also feel very comfortable."

"Look at my royal uncle, I'm lean and muscular, with strong arms and a lot of muscle. I look pretty good. And besides, men with high nose bridges are definitely not to be underestimated in bed."

Wei Zhaoning's breath hitched, and her thoughts drifted to Pei Yi's muscles. The sensation of touching his muscles earlier was so clear. She hadn't felt it when she touched them, but now, thinking back on it, she felt a chill run down her spine.

Seeing her blush, Shen Shu continued, "You two slept cuddling, right? How was it? Was he hot? I heard that if your body is hot, a certain part will get even hotter..."

Wei Zhaoning suddenly thought of the scalding hot jade pendant, and her breathing became difficult. Could it be even hotter than that jade pendant?

She shrank back, immediately snapping out of her daze. If there hadn't been someone nearby, she would have slapped herself for what she was thinking!

"Where did you get all that nonsense from?" she said, sounding a little annoyed.

Shen Shu: "I'm not a little girl anymore, and these things are written in many storybooks."

"You never ask me to hang out, so when I'm bored every day, all I can do is read storybooks to pass the time."

"You're more likely reading banned books," Wei Zhaoning said.

Shen Shu burst into laughter.

Although Wei Zhaoning didn't want to continue discussing this topic, she was still very happy to see Shen Shu laughing so heartily, completely dispelling the gloom of the past and healing her past wounds.

Shen Shu lowered her voice again and said, "My royal uncle is such a rare man, if you two can get married, you must give it a try, it might feel like heaven."

"Alright, alright, stop talking. If you say another word, I'm leaving. You can go read your storybook by yourself," Wei Zhaoning said.

Seeing her face turn red and white, Shen Shu knew she must have guessed what was going on, and teased her, "Let me tell you, there's more..."

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a voice from next door.

I could hear a lot of voices coming from next door, but the soundproofing is so good that I couldn't hear what they were saying at all.

"Don't you have any manners? With such good soundproofing, how could this still come through? How loud was that?" Shen Shu was very annoyed that her sister's private conversation had been interrupted, and she had no desire to continue.

Wei Zhaoning agreed, "And nobody seems to care. Isn't the biggest selling point of this restaurant 'quiet'?"

The two tried to block out the noise, but the surroundings were too quiet, making the people's loud voices seem even louder. They were used to the quiet, and the sudden noise ruined their mood for drinking and eating.

"Waiter, let's go to another room."

The waiter quickly apologized, saying that there were many VIPs in that room, and he had already reminded them but there was nothing he could do. He could only give them a free meal and then packed their things to choose the private room furthest away from here and led them there.

The closer Wei Zhaoning got to the door, the louder the noise became. She patiently walked out, but the moment she saw the people outside, her hair stood on end.
