A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace

Chapter 1310 - 1308: Bridal Chamber and Candlelight

Xia Jingfeng quickly took her in his arms to comfort her."Not ugly, you’re beautiful!"

"Xunxun looks good no matter what!"

He comforted her while wiping her tears with his sleeve.

Tang Xun, blushing, punched him hard in the chest and got out of bed, intending to call Xiao Chuan to bring in water for washing her face.

But she forgot about the love knot on her hair and skirt.

Just as she took a step, the love knot tightened suddenly, pulling her slender body back instantly.

Originally, she could have sat back on the bed, but there was a footstool by the bed.

With her unstable body, she slipped and stumbled, falling directly towards Xia Jingfeng.

"Oh no!"

"Ah!"

After a series of exclamations, Tang Xun finally found herself in an intimate position, pinning Xia Jingfeng down on the bed.

(Of course, this was intentional on his part; otherwise, how could a petite young woman topple the tall Xia Jingfeng?)

Because it was deliberate, Tang Xun’s soft lips happened to brush against his lips like the light touch of a dragonfly on water.

’Hmm, I’ve finally tasted what I’ve dreamed of; it indeed tastes wonderful!’ Xia Jingfeng sneered secretly.

Tang Xun was blank for a moment, her mind empty before she snapped back to reality, scrambling away like she’d been electrocuted.

But... their hair was still tied together, and she couldn’t get far.

So she was pulled back again.

This time, Xia Jingfeng didn’t do it on purpose, but her unsteady body still fell heavily into his arms, her lips pressing hard onto his.

"Mmm..."

Xia Jingfeng felt a tingling sensation in his heart, all the blood rushing to his head, nearly flying with joy.

Tang Xun wanted to escape, but was afraid of being pulled back again.

So even though she was dying of embarrassment, she didn’t dare move, her face burning and not knowing what to do.

Xia Jingfeng wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.

He closed his eyes immediately, covered her eyes, flipped her beneath him, and indulged in a passionate kiss.

Having been turned over, Tang Xun hadn’t yet reacted when the intense kiss overwhelmed her.

She wanted to struggle but couldn’t move, wanted to escape but couldn’t, so she could only let him do as he pleased.

At first, she resisted a little, her heart unable to accept it no matter what.

Gradually, she found his kisses were not unpleasant, and even felt a bit delighted.

So she stopped struggling, gradually accepting, then shyly responding, finally sinking into a deep, passionate kiss.

Two lonely, prickly souls finally merged into one.

The crimson canopy fell, one piece of clothing after another was tossed out of it.

The room was filled with an unending spring charm and soft murmurs.

Only a pair of candles still burned quietly, occasionally bursting into a bloom of wax flowers.

Xiao Chuan, guarding the hot water stove in the kitchen all night, hadn’t seen anyone come for the hot water, and was dozing off in confusion.

"What’s going on?! Could that old lady be fooling me?" she muttered suspiciously.

"It’s already past midnight, who would be bathing now?"

Muttering, she was about to get up and head back to rest.

Suddenly, she saw several maids coming in orderly to fetch hot water.

They were well-disciplined, uniformly dressed, every move precise—clearly from a high-ranking family.

Xiao Chuan awoke with a start, quickly slapped her cheeks, stood up to greet them.

"Hello, sisters, is it the master and madam who need hot water?"

The leading maid glanced at her, recognizing her as one brought by the madam, and responded warmly.

"Yes, the master and madam need hot water, we’re here to serve them, you should go back and rest!"

"You’ve worked hard staying up all night!"

She pulled a handful of silver sycees from her sleeve and placed them in Xiao Chuan’s hand, adding a reminder.

"This is a reward from the master!"

"Take it well, go back and take a rest, we’ll need you to serve the madam well tomorrow!"

Xiao Chuan was dumbfounded, having never seen such things before.

But she didn’t dare refuse, quickly curtsied in thanks.

"Thank you, sisters!"

With that, she retreated quietly.

The maids chuckled but said nothing, hurriedly fetched water to serve the master and madam.

These maids were brought from the Hou Mansion by Ni Manxue, trained to be highly capable.

After all, Xia Jingfeng’s residence lacked personal maids, only having personal servant boys and rough service women.

The new madam marrying into the house needed proper attendants, so Ni Manxue arranged for them to serve.

In the bridal chamber.

After bathing with the fetched water, the two embraced and slept.

Not yet dawn, Tang Xun awoke again.

Seeing him still asleep, resting her head on his arm, she dared not move a muscle, only fluttering her eyelashes like wings, using her bright eyes to study her husband closely.

He looked so handsome asleep.

Long, thick lashes, a high nose bridge, and thin, sculpted lips.

His honey-colored skin radiated endless allure, his chiseled features utterly captivating.

Remembering the previous night’s moments, red clouds quickly appeared on her cheeks.

Looking again at him, her heart swelled with endless sweetness.

The summer sun rises early.

By dawn, the outside was bright.

A moment later, a ray of brilliant sunlight climbed up the window lattice, streaming through leaves and window cracks, splashed delicately on his face.

His dense black lashes, under the light, appeared thick, black, and distinct, like a glossy fan casting a shadow under his eyelid.

"He’s so handsome! I really want to touch them!"

Tang Xun suddenly grew curious, stretching out a jade-white finger, gently brushing over his lashes.

Watching the individual lashes flutter under her finger, a satisfied smile played on her lips.

"Truly beautiful!"

She was lost in admiration and praise.

The owner of those lashes suddenly opened his eyes.

Before she could react, he swiftly captured her hand, pulling her into a tight embrace, biting her earlobe purposely.

"Well! Not sleeping at dawn, daring to offend this official, what should be your punishment?"

His seductive magnetic voice whispered near her ear.

His warm breath brushing her face, the movement of his lips on her earlobe sent tingles down her spine.

A shiver ran through her, face flushed, she begged for mercy.

"Forgive me, Prefectural Governor, I dare not again!"

Xia Jingfeng was intrigued.

"No way!"

"You’ve committed a grave crime, unforgivable!"

"I can only enact justice right here and now!"

With that, he embraced her like an old fox finally catching his long-awaited rabbit.

"Ah! What are you doing? The sun is up!"

Tang Xun exclaimed.

"Of course, enacting justice on the spot!"

He grinned mischievously, without waiting for consent, claimed her lips in a kiss.

His hands wandering freely over her body.

In the red silk canopy.

A tempest of passion, soft whispers, ultimate pleasure, boundless entanglement.

The two star-crossed lovers, who had suffered greatly, finally reaped the sweetness, becoming a united pair.
