Shocking! The actress was dragged to the regent's bedchamber every night.

Shadow Falcon glanced at him and said quietly, "It's good that you know."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xi shrank back.

The two remained silent for a while.

Feng Xi exclaimed again, "How can someone be so good-looking..."

Zhou Yingjun did not respond.

Feng Xi continued, "I only glanced at it, just once, but I'll remember that look for the rest of my life."

Shadow Falcon suddenly turned to look at him.

Feng Xi met that gaze, realized what was happening, and immediately waved her hand.

"That's not what I meant. I just meant... it's so beautiful it's breathtaking."

He couldn't continue.

Shadow Falcon withdrew his gaze and replied, "I know."

Feng Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had explained it clearly, otherwise he would have felt like his head was about to fall off.

After a while, he whispered again, "How did our prince... and that girl meet?"

They couldn't possibly not know that someone had entered the manor, and the prince hadn't left the manor either.

The shadow falcon glanced at him but did not answer.

Feng Xi didn't expect him to answer, and then leaned against the pillar, looking at the clouds in the sky and sighing.

"If we say it's a fairy descending to earth, wouldn't that make sense...?"

……

On the other side, Su Wuli watched the two retreat to the corner of the corridor.

She sat on the man's lap, her face burning uncontrollably.

She couldn't help but lower her head and bury her face in his shoulder.

"What are you hiding from?" a deep voice rang out.

Su Wuli huddled against him without saying a word.

The man chuckled softly, placed his large hand on the back of her head, and gently patted it.

Su Wuli shifted in his arms and said in a muffled voice, "It's all your fault."

"Hmm?" The voice boomed from his chest.

"Knowing that someone is coming..." she said in an even softer voice, "why don't you let go?"

Yu Chen did not respond.

Su Wuli continued, "Luckily, it was in a dream—"

She was interrupted by a man's low chuckle halfway through her sentence.

"In my dream," he repeated.

Su Wuli looked up at him, puzzled. "What's wrong?"

Yu Chen reached out and pinched her chin, lifting her face slightly.

"It's not a dream."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Wuli froze, her face full of confusion.

What?

Yu Chen's gaze was deep, and he didn't seem to be joking.

Her lips twitched, and something was buzzing in her head, but she couldn't get it to move.

"You..." Her voice was a little dry.

"I am not sleeping," Yu Chen said, stating each word clearly, "I am not dreaming."

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli's heart skipped a beat, and then began to pound wildly.

She looked down at herself.

She was wearing conservative pajamas, and then she looked up at him.

The man was wearing a fitted outfit, and the sweat on his forehead was still damp.

Her Adam's apple was right in front of her, bobbing slightly with her breath.

She looked around again.

She slowly raised her hand and touched his face.

My fingertips touched his skin; it was hot, real.

He let her touch him without moving.

Even though I know that even in a dream, these sensations feel real, it’s just that it’s so obvious that I can’t distinguish between reality and dreams.

However, her fingers continued to slowly slide down, touching his neck...

"Really..." Su Wuli couldn't help but mutter to herself.

Immediately, Yu Chen took her hand and placed her palm against his chest.

My heartbeat traveled through the thin fabric.

Su Wuli looked up and met his eyes, in which she saw her reflection.

"When have I ever lied to you?" Yu Chen said.

"You fooled me," Su Wuli blurted out.

I just fooled them.

She sat up slightly from the man's lap, looked around, looked at herself, and then looked at him.

My mind is a complete mess.

Since Yu Chen could briefly appear in her real life, it didn't seem strange that she could appear in his...

Su Wuli stared at him blankly, shock gradually spreading through her eyes.

"I..." Her voice trembled as she asked again, confirming, "Am I dreaming?"

Yu Chen gripped her hand a little tighter.

Su Wuli was puzzled.

Why?

Yu Chen appeared in her life because she called his name, so why did she appear in Yu Chen's life in the first place?

Thinking this, she subconsciously asked, "Did you call my name?"

"No." Yu Chen shook his head.

no?

Su Wuli was taken aback. When would she appear?

Why?

Looking at Yu Chen's face, a thought suddenly rushed into my mind.

Wait a minute, just now...

Su Wuli couldn't help but glance at the corner where the two had disappeared.

So... they actually saw it, it wasn't an NPC in a dream.

Su Wuli sat on the man's lap and couldn't help but look down at her clothes.

She was wearing pajamas, albeit a conservative style.

Grayish blue.

If this happened in a dream, it would be one thing, but suddenly she was told that this wasn't a dream.

Su Wuli froze in his arms as if struck by lightning.

For her, pajamas are private clothing, meant only for personal spaces.

"What's wrong?" Yu Chen asked, seemingly noticing her distress.

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli looked up at him, her face showing an expression that looked like she was about to cry.

"I..." she began, her voice faltering, "I'm wearing pajamas..."

Yu Chen looked at her but didn't immediately respond.

Su Wuli couldn't help but point to her pajamas.

"Pajamas..." Her voice held a hint of despair. "They saw me wearing my pajamas."

A hint of confusion flashed across Yu Chen's face. "Don't you usually wear this too?"

"That's different." Su Wuli was getting anxious. "Usually I think I'm dreaming, where I can wear anything in my dreams. But this is different, this is—"

She couldn't continue.

She was wearing her pajamas with him...

And it was seen by others, two of them at that.

She had never wished for a moment that all of this was a dream.

Su Wuli was so frustrated she was almost in tears.

"What's different?" Yu Chen asked in a low voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Wuli unconsciously raised her eyes and glared at him.

"Pajamas are for sleeping in," she explained, on the verge of tears. "They're very private... how could someone else see them?"

Yu Chen's gaze lingered on her face for two seconds before he spoke, his voice a little lower than before.

"So you deliberately dressed up just for me?"
