Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 65 - Getting Affectionate

Sheng Li reached his resting chamber and laid down on the bed. "Your highness, your lunch meal will be here in a while," Xing-Fu humbly said.

"I will have my meal in the Crown Princess chamber. Inform the Crown Princess that do not start eating until I will be there," Sheng Li ordered and closed his eyes. Xing-Fu bowed his head, took the steps backward, and walked out of the chamber, closing the door behind him.

Sheng Li was reminiscing about the days from his childhood with his mother when he saw Ying Lili. Forthwith, he opened his eyes and blinked them. "Why did I see her?" Sheng Li thought when a tiny smile carved on his lips.

Sheng Li got down from the bed. "Prepare the bath for me," Sheng Li ordered in a loud enough voice that the maidservants outside the chamber heard him, so two of them went to the bathhouse. Sheng Li went to the end table on the left side wall and opened the drawer. He took out the scroll, which was the Royal Decree by his father, mentioning him to go to the Southern Province after the lantern festival.

"Wang Hao, I hope you will get a hold of the rebellions there because I have to return to the capital in one month period," Sheng Li thought in his mind when he heard the sound of the opening of the door. He put back the scroll inside the drawer and turned to look. "Your highness, I have given the message to the court lady Xu. Her highness is going to take the bath first so, there might be some delay," Xing-Fu replied who was standing near the beaded curtains.

Sheng Li smirked as he thought of something mischievous. "Is my bath ready?" Sheng Li questioned.

"Your highness, the maidservants are preparing it. His highness has to wait for 10 minutes," Xing-Fu asserted. "Your highness, why do you not check the gifts given to you today? The portrait given by his majesty is placed in your study room," Xing-Fu informed Sheng Li.

"There is nothing to see. I got again those useless gifts except one," Sheng Li muttered as he recalled the perfume gifted by Ying Lili. "Bring me the gift given by the Crown princess," stated Sheng Li. Xing-Fu nodded and went to the side room of the resting chamber. He came back and handed the wooden box to the Crown Prince.

Sheng Li opened the box and looked at the perfume bottle. "Her highness prepared for this entire night," Xing-Fu softly said and smiled. Sheng Li hummed at him and went back to the bed, laid on it. Xing-Fu placed the wooden box on the table there. "It seems your highness is caring about her highness," Xing-Fu stated.

"What do you mean?" Sheng Li sternly asked.

Xing-Fu lowered his eyes. "I want to say that his highness is getting affectionate towards her highness. Your relationship with her highness is improving," Xing-Fu proclaimed. Sheng Li did not feel to tell Xing-Fu anything and thought to let him remain in an illusion.

"The bath is ready, your highness," a maidservant informed Sheng Li who instantly got down from the bed and walked out, followed by Xing-Fu.

As he entered the bathhouse, he told Xing-Fu not to let anyone come inside of the Crown Princess bathhouse, not even maids.

"What is his highness going to do?" Xing-Fu teasingly asked.

"You do not need to know," Sheng Li replied and closed the giant doors of the bathhouse after throwing Xing-Fu out along with the other maids. Sheng Li undressed quickly and was now only in the black trousers. He removed the pin from his hair bun and put the crown down at the table there.

Ying Lili who was in the bathhouse next to the Crown Prince noticed that the maidservants were leaving from there. She turned to see and found the door was closed. "Is it Sheng Li again?" she studied the situation and quickly wrapped herself from the white colored satin bathrobe and sat on the marble platform of the huge bathtub.

She heard the sliding sound of the door. "Are you pervert?" Ying Lili shouted at Sheng Li as she saw him coming there with half naked body. She flinched her brows and averted his gaze from him.

"Lili, didn't I warn you not to call me pervert?" Sheng Li pronounced as he got into the bathtub. Ying Lili looked at him and then gulped. "Why are you here? Go out else I will scream," Ying Lili stated as she tightly wrapped the satin bathrobe around her.

"You can scream, wild cat! I am your husband so, no one will come to help you instead they will take another meaning of this," Sheng Li asserted as he grinned. Ying Lili curled up her toes, which were still under the water, while Sheng Li kept walking towards her.

"Run, Lili," Ying Lili told herself and almost brought her legs out of the water when Sheng Li grabbed her both arms, keeping her intact at the place. "Where are you running, wild cat?" Sheng Li smirked as he flicked his fingers in front of Ying Lili's face, splashing the water droplets on her face. She shut her eyes tightly and at the same time wrapped the satin bathrobe tightly around her body.

"D-do not do anything else I will kill you," Sheng Li heard Ying Lili who had opened her eyes, which amused him.

"How will you kill me? There is no weapon here," Sheng Li whispered against Ying Lili's lips who kicked Sheng Li's leg. "Ahh," Sheng Li passed a low scream when he saw Ying Lili had turned swiftly to run away from him. Before she could run, Sheng Li pulled her into the bathtub.

The force was immense, and the two ended up falling into the water, but at the right time Sheng Li balanced himself and Ying Lili as well. The water was reaching Sheng Li's waist while for Ying Lili the level of water was slightly above the waist. Sheng Li flipped his hair from which water droplets were dripping on his upper body and then shifted his gaze to Ying Lili.
