Chapter 1923: Practice Makes Perfect

She didn’t show any means to let him sleep on the sofa, seeing how half of the bed was left empty.

Ye Jian, who was still blushing, hadn’t slept yet. She heard him entering the room and closing the door. He got to the bed while she held her breath tightly, and he lay gently beside her.

“Come, sleep in my arms; I’ll hug you.”

    

It was the voice of a man who had just taken a cold shower, it was as hoarse as when he was emotional, but it was still very clear.

Ye Jian, who was sleeping on her side, did not move, but Xia Jinyuan, who was speaking, moved. He supported her shoulder with one hand and then brought her into his arms with force, causing Ye Jian to turn around and face him.

   

Seeing her red cheeks, Xia Jinyuan couldn’t help kissing her forehead, “Practice makes perfect; next time, I’ll try to hold it a little longer, then you will be more comfortable.”

……

  

Ye Jian really didn’t want to listen to this topic!

   

She didn’t want to listen or join in the discussion. She just shut her eyes and ignored him, but her fluttering eyelashes exposed her, making Xia Jinyuan feel affectionate. He hugged her tightly in his arms, with tenderness in his chest, “Your face is so red. Do you want some cold water to dissipate the heat?”

    

The way he acted right now was like if she didn’t speak, he wouldn’t stop talking.

“No need. Just don’t talk to me about it so I won’t blush anymore.” Ye Jian opened her mouth to speak but still kept her eyes closed, buried her head in his arms to prevent him from looking at her face, “I’m tired, I want to sleep.”

  

Xia Jinyuan, who felt comfortable physically and mentally, wasn’t sleepy at all at this time. Although he didn’t manage to feel her five fingers, he had already gotten quite a deal, so there was no need for conjecture.

   

In the team, Han Zheng sometimes mentioned affairs between men and women. He had experienced many battles. He hadn’t stopped since he was fifteen years old. To him, women were like a demand-solving item, and after using it, he wouldn’t think about it again.

When he mentioned feelings, Xia Jinyuan didn’t think about anyone else; he only thought about the girl sleeping in his arms.

    

After all, conjectures were conjectures, which were completely different from reality. Only after experiencing it could you know what a happy feeling was like.

A feeling that made his cerebral cortex quite active, a feeling as if his soul was floating.

The territory he exploited was just two mountains, and that was enough to make him feel that way. If he fully occupied the territory, wouldn’t it… well, he didn’t need to think about it because just thinking about it now made his body move around again.

 

“You’re tired? You can just close your eyes, rest, and listen to me.” He didn’t want to sleep. He wanted to talk to her about his feelings. He gently stroked her shoulders and said in a low voice, “I have never felt this kind of feeling before. I am very excited now, little fox; how are you feeling?”

“Did it make you comfortable? It should be okay. I could hear your low voice, like a cat’s paw scratching me; it made me more excited.”

“I feel as if I can still hear your voice in my ears now…I used cold water to shower just now and managed to put out all the flames, but it’s back again now…, little fox, I’m really defeated in your hands in this life.”

  

He had undergone similar seduction training several times, except for the first time that he was caught off guard and had a little reaction, he never reacted again, even if a woman with the best health stood in front of him, she would be like a plastic human model to him, he would not be aroused by it, not even a little.

    

She was the only one who could make him so sensitive in every place, drawing out the most primitive impulses of his body.

“If it weren’t for the fact that you have to catch the plane tomorrow, little fox, I will really toss you till dawn tonight.” After saying this, Xia Jinyuan hugged Ye Jian, who seemed to be asleep, and slowly closed his eyes.

   

He could sleep now. There were still many things they had to deal with after waking up. Their young love was short-lived; fighting was their life.

I finally (sadly) caught up with the latest batch of chapters I’d not read yet. It reminded me again that while I thoroughly hate Gu Fangzi, I can’t help but feel sympathetic towards her plight in some ways. Sure her ways and methods of achieving her goals are ruthless and worthy of granting her the title of “Grand Bitch”. However she is stuck in an awful spot as well.

Especially after her father dies, after seeing her “beloved” (quotation marks since I honestly don’t think she ever saw her cousin as anything other than a nice meal ticket that came with a nice roof over her head) veer more and more towards Sang Wan. Who knows what his feelings will be towards her in three years after her mourning period is over? For all she knows he won’t even remember her at all, and then she’ll be stuck in a rut with no one to care for her.

It’s quite refreshing to have such a well thought-out villain that, despite all her flaws, has her reasons for doing what she does beyond loving the male lead. It also helps that the story is (so far, fingers crossed) set outside of the more natural habitat for this type of story, in the middle of a battle for who will become the next Emperor. The Shi family is rich, for sure, but they aren’t nobles (unless I am misremembering something from the early chapters). And Gu Fangzi is not your typical villain in these types of stories, that has the backing of major families that can keep them safe and sound despite whatever crazy scheme they come up with. It also means that her situation is more desperate since she lacks that support, she has NOTHING to fall back on beyond her ties with the Shi family (even Sang Wan has at least her brothers and sister-in-law to rely on). And then some random nobody comes and basically steals what she had thought was her natural spot for the majority of her life. All of that compounds to make for Gu Fangzi, to me, a more believable, intriguing and interesting villain that I can (to a certain extent) sympathize with.

Anyway, that became quite the TL;DR. Ahem. Thanks as always for the translations!
