Chapter 618 - Ahh, My Heart...
Sheng Li blinked his eyes, thus losing the game willingly. "You lost," Ying Lili said with a smile. Sheng Li hummed and passed her with a smile.
"Why did you bring me horse riding when you know that I am pregnant?" Ying Lili, out of a sudden asked him.
"Kongqi is a calm horse with you and me. Also, I told him about our twins, so he has stood with such calmness," Sheng Li pronounced. Sheng Li got down from Kongqi and then helped Ying Lili to get down. Kongqi started to graze in the open field while they both started to walk.
"Since you lost in the game, then what will you do for me? Will you fulfill my wish?" Ying Lili asked him.
"Of course! Ask anything and I will fulfill it," Sheng Li asserted.
Ying Lili passed him a tiny smile. She put her both hands around his neck and tiptoed. She kissed his lips deeply. Sheng Li wrapped his right arm around her waist and nibbled her lips.
Commander Yang immediately turned his gaze away and told Lei Wanxi to not look there. He found that Lei Wanxi was no longer beside him. "Prince Wanxi," he murmured and ran after him.
Lei Wanxi opened his fan and kept walking towards them when Commander Yang caught his wrist. He glanced at him and gestured to him to let go of his wrist when Commander Yang forcefully dragged him.
Sheng Li left Ying Lili breathless and asked, "You wanted a kiss?"
"No," Ying Lili answered. "I wanted to kiss," she stated.
"You hardly kiss me openly," Sheng Li answered. Ying Lili looked around the field.
"There is no one around," she said affirmatively.
"Hmm. Come. I will show you something," Sheng Li grasped her hand and took her towards the other end of the open field. "When I was young, I used to play here with Lei Wanxi, Wang Hao, and Xiao Zhan," he told her as he showed her the playground.
"Suddenly I reminisced about my childhood days," Sheng Li said and they stepped inside the playground. It had been years since he had visited this place. "It needs renovation. Soon our kids will also play here," he got excited as he said that.
"Yes. Will their father play with them too?" Ying Lili asked him.
"Of course. There will be special two hours times in which I will play with my children. I have even prepared a small schedule in my mind to spend time with them," Sheng Li affirmed and smiled.
Away from the playground, Lei Wanxi complained with Commander Yang about why he dragged him away.
"Prince Wanxi shall not invade the private moments of the Emperor and the Empress," he suggested to the Sixth Prince.
"Commander Yang, it was for fun before my marriage. Once I will be married, will I be able to do such things? I don't think so," Lei Wanxi stated and sighed.
"That's troubling people," Zhu Lin pronounced and came towards them. She greeted Commander Yang and glanced at Lei Wanxi.
"What are you doing here?" He asked.
"I was searching for you for a long time. I have something to tell you," Zhu Lin replied.
"Speak," Lei Wanxi said.
"I cannot say it openly," Zhu Lin answered. Immediately, Commander Yang took his leave.
"What is it that you cannot say it openly?" Lei Wanxi curiously asked her.
"It's about Princess Xue Yu-Yan," Zhu Lin said with a menacing expression. The smile from Lei Wanxi's lips disappeared and took a step towards her.
"What happened?" He asked.
"Princess Xue Yu-Yan seemed suspicious today. It felt like she was trying to hide something. I mean, I saw her on the walkway and the way she was looking around seemed suspicious...as if she wanted no one to see her," Zhu Lin proclaimed.
"What?" Lei Wanxi furrowed his eyebrows.
"You told me that in the past she planned a few things against Sister Lili. But then, she changed. She repented on her mistakes. Is it true? I mean, what if she showed all of us that she's changed but she did not?" Zhu Lin skeptically asked him.
"This is not possible. Brother Jian would have found out about this if she would be the same. Also, in the past, even Zhilao Mi tried to frame her. Sister Xue has indeed changed," Lei Wanxi affirmed.
"We thought the same for Prince Yongzheng until he made an evil plan which changed a lot of things in the Palace," Zhu Lin stated.
"So, what do you think? Shall we tell Brother Sheng about this? He will definitely get angry. He does not like Princess Xue a bit and if we tell him this, then he might be irked. Brother Jian and his relationship have turned good after so many years. Let's first confirm before telling anything to Brother Sheng," Lei Wanxi opined.
"Prince Wanxi, the Empress is pregnant. I think that we shall inform the Emperor," Zhu Lin affirmed.
"What if our suspicion will be wrong? A war will start," Lei Wanxi stated.
"Let's confirm then. But we won't make any mistakes this time unlike earlier. If we find anything suspicious, we will inform the Emperor first," Zhu Lin said. Lei Wanxi acknowledged her idea.
"Brother Jian is not in the capital for a week. So, it will be easy to keep a check on Princess Xue Yu-Yan," Lei Wanxi asserted with a smile.
"I have joined the office today as the Senior rank officer in the Justice and Law Department. The officials were surprised to see me," Lei Wanxi said gladly. "It will be fun when I will find out some of the darkest secrets in the department. Brother Sheng will punish them then," he affirmed and started to laugh.
"You get excited in seconds. You have to be careful while working there. Also, do not involve yourself in unwanted matters without telling me," Zhu Lin said concernedly.
"Are you worried for me?" He asked.
"Of course!" Zhu Lin answered.
"Ahh, my heart...it just fluttered," he said and winked at her.
