Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Liu Shimei, the so-called embroidered belt with a decapitated golden oriole, was just his fabrication!

Lying to his wife, karma shouldnt strike so quickly!

Huangfu Lingyao was utterly bewildered. Despite his acting skills, he was momentarily dumbfounded before responding, Oh, that thing, its not important! Its getting late, lets finish this drink and Ill escort you back.

It was a gift from your Empress Mother, isnt it important? Liu Shimei asked suspiciously.

Her silly puppy nodded, then shook his head, saying, Its not that its not important at all, its just well, compared to Wife, of course, its not important!

Flattery can win hearts, who doesnt love sweet words?

No matter how rational Liu Shimei was, she was still a young girl. How could she not feel elated when her fiance said that his deceased mothers keepsake was less important than her?

She smiled, saying, You cant compare it like that. If you find the belt, bring it to me, and Ill figure out a way to fix the embroidery. Its just a matter of some stitches, right?

Huangfu Lingyaos face stiffened for a moment. Eventually, he came up with a solution, Its too late today, and besides, even if I go out now, I wont be able to find it! Ive been searching for it long before you arrived! How about this

He thought of a solution, his eyes brightening, When I find it, Ill bring it to you, and Wife, you can mend the belt for me!

Having a wife is indeed wonderful, having such a considerate wife is even rarer!

An unintentional move, and he snatched away this excellent wife from Huangfu He, truly hitting the jackpot.

Lifes joys!

Liu Shimei thought that it made sense and said, Well, go ahead then, you go and look. When you find it, bring it to me.

Huangfu Lingyao breathed a sigh of relief: thankfully, he had managed to deceive her.bender

They finished the small jar of lotus flower wine. Huangfu Lingyao called for Li Xin to prepare the carriage and escorted her back to the Grand Chancellors Residence. He watched her enter the main gate and waited until it closed before instructing Li Xin, You may go.

Then he added, Get me a belt embroidered with orioles. Not a new one, an old one. Remove the embroidery threads from the little birds head on top!

The corner of Li Xins lips twitched. He had no idea what peculiar whim his master was following now.

Where was he supposed to find such a belt?

But Huangfu Lingyao paid no attention to the difficulty. He had given the task to Li Xin, so he settled back in the carriage, savoring the unexpected joy of the night, a smile playing on his lips that wouldnt fade.

It was just a pleasant surprise, after all.

Under his relentless efforts, he had finally made his wife blossom like an iron tree, and her feelings towards him were no longer just that of raising a foolish son but a genuine attachment.

Oh, just thinking about it made him feel like he wouldnt need to sleep tonight!

However, when he returned to his bedroom in the palace, he thought, No, I do need to sleep. This is the bed my wife has slept in; it must be very comfortable!

He immediately changed into his nightclothes, didnt bother washing his face or wiping his hands, and just lay down on the bed!

Why wash his face? His wife had touched it;

Why wipe his hands? His wife had held them;

Why rinse his mouth? His wife had kissed him!

As for cultivating

Lets wait until his wifes scent on the bed fades away!

When he saw a fallen hair on the pillow, he couldnt help but startle. He then took out the little purse embroidered with his name that his wife had made, containing her cut hair!

Oh no, he really couldnt sleep tonight

Meanwhile, Liu Shimei, after returning to the Leihua Courtyard, despite the nights adventures and encountering the silly puppy, didnt suddenly feel low-spirited, but she couldnt sleep right away either.

Choosing a female physician was work and could be done during the day. But investigating the cause of Liu Quans death was personal.

She kept her public and private matters separate!

After freshening up, she started studying the files.

Moer kept her company.

After about an hour, Moer asked, Eldest Young Miss, have you discovered something?

Because Liu Shimei had been staring at one spot in silence for a very long time!
