Chapter 95: He Was Just Embarrassed (I)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

After kissing passionately for a while, Long let go of Shi...

They didn’t make love, because it would be uncomfortable and inconvenient for them to clean their bodies in the carriage.

Long loved Shi deeply, so he didn’t have the heart to make his beloved man feel uncomfortable.

Shi couldn’t help but look up at Long. With light pink ears and reddish cheeks, Shi looked so beautiful and sexy at that mont.

Shi hadn’t expected that Long could still resist his burning desire under such circumstances. Thinking of that, Shi felt so warm deep inside.

Long moaned and said in a hoarse voice, “Qingzhou, don’t look at like that.”

Shi slightly lowered his head. He kept silent and stopped looking at Long.

After taking a deep breath, Long held Shi into his arms and put on the coat for him.

Long straightened up Shi’s clothes and then hugged Shi tightly. After fully calming himself down, Long rubbed Shi’s waist while saying, “Is it sore? Let rub it for you.”

Shi didn’t refuse and just nodded his head.

They had a sweet ti along the way. Long kept holding Shi in his arms and Shi didn’t resist at all in the carriage.

Finally, the carriage arrived at Shuanghua City.

Long raised the curtain a little bit. He didn’t know if it was his illusion or not... but he felt that the atmosphere in the city was a little different from that when he left last ti...

Shi also looked outside and said, “What’s the matter?”

Long touched his own head. “I don’t know. Maybe I get the wrong feeling, but I just feel that it wasn’t like this when I left here last ti.”

Shi was a little stunned. Then, he said gently, “Perhaps sothing has happened.”

“Yeah, maybe.” Long nodded. “Shall we go to the previous inn?”

After thinking a mont, Shi shook his head. “We don’t know whether it’s safe or not. We’ve been away for so long after all.”

“Then what should we do?” Long frowned.

Shi smiled. “We have a private house in Shuanghua City.”

“Huh?” Long was stunned. “How is that possible? Why don’t I know?”

Shi laughed. “I asked soone to buy it secretly the first day I ca here. But the house needed to be cleaned up, so I stayed in the inn at that ti. Now I’m sure that it has been cleaned up after so many days.”

“Oh.” Long was surprised. “Houses in Shuanghua City are not cheap. Qingzhou, you took so much money with you?”

Shi nodded. “Of course. Every ti I go out, I bring a lot of money with in case of any ergency. In fact, our family also has so shops under my mother’s na.”

Long was stunned. He said, “So, your family is also in business?”

“More than half of the ministers in the court are in business, but they all operate under their wives’ or other relatives’ nas,” Shi said, “Otherwise, how can they support a big family only with such small salaries?”

Long curled his lips. “I think all officials despise businessn.”

Shi smiled. “How can it be? It’s true that officials are more respected than businessn in ordinary people’s eyes, but business is closely related to national economy and people’s livelihood.” Then, Shi asked seriously, “Your Majesty, don’t you think businessn are important?”

“No.” Long imdiately shook his head. “Businessn are important. I just thought that you had a different opinion.”

Shi smiled and shook his head. “No, we all need to live. Money is important for everyone to live a good life.”

Long breathed out a long breath and felt that he’d really learned a lot.

While talking, they went to the new house.

The new house was located in the west of the city. It was a bit remote, but the environnt was good and it was quite secluded. No wonder Shi would choose it.

“Your Majesty, you said that many houses would be needed to cultivate young beggars and take in the old ones. So we can take this place as one of the strongholds.”

Shi always kept everything that Long said in his mind, so he proposed.

Long nodded his head and couldn’t help saying, “Most of the ti, I just have an idea or a plan for sothing, but you’re the one who helps perfect it every ti. Qingzhou, without you, I would have many troubles.”

Shi smiled slightly. “So? I’m very useful?”

“Of course, my sweetheart is a remarkable talent!” Long said firmly. Long wasn’t flattering Shi. That was truth! That was what Long really thought!

A remarkable talent? Shi raised his eyebrows and said smilingly, “I’m flattered, Your Majesty.”

Long laughed and held Shi’s hand. Then, they got off the carriage together.

There were only two Shadow Guardians guarding the house and no other servants.

Looking at the house, Long said, “It’s pretty big. There’s a front yard, a back yard and a spacious hall.”

“Yes.” Shi nodded. “It cost two hundred taels of silver.”

“Tut, tut.” Long couldn’t help saying, “Qingzhou, where did you get so much money?”

Shi smiled. “Though I wasn’t favored by you in the past few years, I still got paid regularly every month. I saved all the money and there are more than 3,000 taels now.”

As Shi said he wasn’t favored in the past few years, Long touched his nose with embarrassnt and then looked at the Shi as if he was a poor boy. “Qingzhou, are you blaming ? I know I was wrong.”

Shi rolled his eyes. “Your Majesty, you’re overthinking it.”

“I’m not emperor in front of outsiders. Oh no, I’m not emperor in front of you, Qingzhou. I’m just your husband,” Long said.

Shi slightly curled his lips. “Don’t worry, my husband. I didn’t an to bla you.”

Long really didn’t want to be stuck in that topic, so he said, “Qingzhou, I bet you haven’t had a good look at the place after you bought it.”

“No.” Shi didn’t want to talk about the unhappy things in the past, either, so he changed the topic with Long.

Then, Long and Shi began to stroll in the new house hand in hand.

The furnishings in the house were not old. So of them should be left by the original owner and so of them should be added later.

Anyway, this place would just be a stronghold. Neither Long nor Shi thought that it was necessary to decorate it too well.

After visiting the place, Long and Shi sat down in the pavilion in the front yard.

Beside the pavilion, there was a pond, in which there were lotus flowers and many carp swimming around.

“It’s a good place for vocations.” Long couldn’t help saying.

“Vacation?” Shi looked at Long.

Long blinked. “I an we can relax here.”

Shi looked at Long and said significantly, “Your Majesty, you occasionally say so words that I can’t understand these days. Where did you learn them?”

Long blinked. “From my dreams.”

Shi narrowed his eyes, while Long calmly looked at Shi.

Finally, Shi smiled and stopped asking.
