Chapter 689: The Long Night
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Liangwei found herself falling deep into the kiss as she lost all sense of rationality. She felt herself being hoisted up while their lips were still connected.
She could extract herself from the trance and it was only when her back touched the soft bed that she heard the man’s husky yet gentle voice call out, “Weiwei, hold me tight.”
She wrapped her hands around his back obediently.
The long night had just begun.
Weiwei was finally exhausted after a few times. Her long, slender legs slipped off from his waist as she fell into a deep sleep.
Long Yang’s heart felt contented, yet it ached for her as he watched the girl lie underneath him, her long hair wet and messy.
He lowered his head and gave her a loving kiss on the forehead before falling asleep with her wrapped in his arms.
It was the Autumn Hunt the next day.
The room was silent outside when Lu Liangwei woke up. There was no sound coming from outside at all; she found this a little strange.
She looked out the window and saw that the sun was shining brightly in the sky. It should have been bustling outside by this time in the day, but it was eerily silent.
She frowned and put on a random blouse she grabbed, heading outside.
She opened the door and was taken aback to see the servants silently busying themselves about.
“What are all of you doing?”
She had thought that no one was outside and was not expecting the servants to be taking extra effort to work quietly.
Everyone paused at the same time when they heard her open the door, and turned to look at her.
Zhu Yu was standing beneath the corridor roof while coordinating the servants’ work. She quickly went to Lu Liangwei when she saw Lu Liangwei come out of the room. “Miss, you’re finally awake.”
Lu Liangwei asked curiously, “What were all of you doing just now?”
Zhu Yu smiled happily as she replied, “Nothing. It’s just that when His Majesty left in the morning, he gave special instructions for me not to disturb your rest, which was why I made everyone work quietly without making a sound. How are you feeling? Did you sleep well last night, Miss?”
Lu Liangwei was reminded of what happened last night when she heard that the quietness was due to Long Yang’s instructions. Her face burned.
His Majesty had surprisingly fantastic stamina, and no matter how many times they had done it, it was never enough for him. She had accommodated him and did it a few times, but was ultimately completely drained and fell asleep.
She did not even realize what time he had woken up in the morning.
Zhu Yu snuck a look at Lu Liangwei’s expression and said thoughtfully, “Miss, you must be feeling hungry now. I’ve instructed the imperial kitchen to prepare your meal. You can tidy yourself up first. Your meal will arrive soon.”
Lu Liangwei nodded and when she saw Zhu Yu about to make arrangements, she asked, “By the way, did His Majesty return? Has he taken breakfast yet?”
Zhu Yu stopped in her steps and turned back to give Lu Liangwei a coy look. “Miss, do you know what time it is right now? His Majesty has already taken his breakfast and should be managing administrative affairs in the imperial study around now. You’ll be heading out to Cool Mountains after your breakfast.”
“What time is it?” Lu Liangwei had a bad feeling about this.
“It’s now?Si Time1, Miss,” Zhu Yu replied.
Even though Lu Liangwei knew that she must have overslept, she did not expect it to be so late.
She had actually slept till 10 am?
“There’s no need for the meal to be delivered here. Just pack up some snacks and I’ll be fine. I’ll have them in the carriage,” Lu Liangwei quickly instructed as she returned to her room to clean up.
She should have begun the journey early in the morning for the Autumn Hunt, but she had not even departed at this late hour. Could it be what she was thinking?
Could Long Yang have pushed back the travel schedule because she had not woken up?
If this was true, it would be way too embarrassing.
She took only 15 minutes to do her hair and dress up.
By the time she had walked out of the room, the Virtuous Consort was already waiting for her.
A strange look appeared on the Virtuous Consort’s face when Lu Liangwei walked out. Her gaze stopped at Lu Liangwei’s hair before she approached to give her greetings. “Greetings to you, Your Highness.”
