Chapter 497: Chapter 498: A Bit Embarrassed

Thinking about it, she softly lifted the corners of her lips at the thought of her son growing up as happily as he did.

Huangfu Jue came over, wrapped his arms lightly around her waist from behind, and rested his chin gently on her shoulder.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I was just thinking that Xiaotang could have a colorful and happy childhood just like you... that’s wonderful."

Tightening his arms, Huangfu Jue gently kissed her cheek while holding the slender waist of the woman in his arms.

"I can’t change the past, but in the future... I will do my best to give you the best I can."

Gan Yuan turned her face and smiled as she met his gaze.

"You already have."

His love was the best thing in the world. With this alone, she had no regrets in her life.

Her eyes sparkled like stars, as bright as when he first saw her. Taking a deep breath, he couldn’t help but lower his head and gently kiss her lips.

In the next room, Gan Tang came back with the books she had picked out and, reaching the bedroom door, saw this from the slightly ajar door, and immediately shrank back with a smile.

"Grandma, shall we go downstairs first?"

Leng Xiaoye came over, glanced into the room, smiled, and took hold of the little one’s hand, leading him out of the master bedroom.

It was quite a while before Huangfu Jue released her lips, but his arms still held her waist and did not loosen.

"After dinner, I’ll take you to see my other bedroom."

This was just a children’s bed. After the age of ten, the two brothers had already moved out of their parents’ room, so each of them had two bedrooms in the Royal Palace.

Gan Yuan looked at her watch and, realizing it had been quite some time, turned around with some concern.

"The child... why is it taking so long?"

"I guess they’ve gone downstairs first."

Realizing the implication in his words, Gan Yuan felt her cheeks warm.

It was no big deal for their son to see them; after all, they were only kissing and not doing anything indecent, but Leng Xiaoye was Huangfu Jue’s mother, and she felt somewhat embarrassed.

"I... I’ll go wash my face."

Her lips were still slightly swollen, and she didn’t want the King downstairs to notice anything amiss.

Huangfu Jue took her arm and helped her tidy her hair.

"Dad may seem cold, but once you get to know him better, you’ll see he’s not difficult to get along with."

"Like you?" she teased with a smile.

Huangfu Jue raised an eyebrow, "Me?"

"Yeah!" Gan Yuan teased, "Despite liking me, you wouldn’t admit it."

"When was that?"

"If you didn’t like me, why did you keep the diving appointment, and on the snowy mountain, you were as cold as ice."

Huangfu Jue shook his head lightly, "I wasn’t pretending, I just didn’t understand that was liking at the time."

Pretense was something he disdained. What he liked, what he wanted... he just went for it.

He had always been that way, ever since he was young.

Gan Yuan narrowed her eyes, looking at him skeptically.

"Do you mean to tell me you’ve never liked anyone before?"

The man shook his head.

"How is that possible?"

With his excellences, women who liked him could probably circle the Earth; how could he have no experience in love.

"There’s nothing strange about it," Huangfu Jue said as he took her hand and walked towards the door. "Because in the past, to me, dating was just a waste of time, and women meant trouble."

She found it both amusing and curious.

"What about now? Why would you waste time for ’trouble’ like me?"
