Chapter 564: Chapter 574: Tonight You Serve in Bed

Her temperament really made it easy for her to get into trouble.

"Considering how useless I am, forcing you to help me, if you should overexert yourself to the point of harm, I’d feel distressed. To ease my mind, shouldn’t you be a bit more obedient, hmm?"

Jin Zijin covered his own chest, his gaze earnest yet somewhat... fleeting. This man, when not putting on an act, was inscrutable, but when he did, his eyes shone clearly. Gu Youyou stopped writing, studied his face, and suddenly laughed aloud.

"Speak properly, I’m not used to this from you."

"Huh? Speak properly?" Jin Zijin straightened up, adjusted his posture, and seriously said, "Speaking properly means I have no way to deal with you, so I’m seeking your pity for this heart of mine."

"You... hahaha..." This time, Gu Youyou laughed so hard she trembled, and the pen she held dropped to the floor.

She stood up, spun around, and sat on his lap, pressing her hand to his chest as she said, "You’ve been especially good today, and your words have pleased me, so... should I grant you the honor of sharing my bed?"

After finishing, she looked at him somewhat nervously, with some expectation, yet feeling that her words were too abrupt.

Her thoughts swirled in her mind, then she felt that what she had said was not wrong.

He had said before that he wanted to be that darn State Preceptor, right? Afraid of failing Sanqing, he had to remain chaste until he could retire with honors, then he would marry her openly and bring her to his side.

Logically speaking, they could then consummate the marriage.

But now that he was no longer pursuing the role of State Preceptor, focusing instead on uncovering the truth behind his mother’s wrongful death, seeking revenge for her, and finding the person behind the plots from back then. Finding the Princess who was taken away, the person who swapped identities with him.

Not being a Taoist anymore meant no more owing Sanqing, so they should consummate the marriage now, shouldn’t they?

Realizing this, Gu Youyou relaxed and drew his head closer, earnestly gazing at him.

"Is that not allowed?"

Seeing his expression grow increasingly uneasy, Gu Youyou felt both disappointed and anxious.

"Youyou!" He took her hand and laid it down, sighing softly, "What you just said is not appropriate, not something you should say."

"Huh?" Gu Youyou was stunned.

What did she just say? Sharing the bed?

Good heavens, such words from a maiden are only uttered when her virtues are locked away in a cabinet, and he replies that it’s not right?

Is he truly a saint? He’s so hard to please!

"Sharing a bed, that’s something concubines do, you are not one, and neither am I."

Snort...

Gu Youyou felt severely hurt, as if she were on the verge of coughing up blood.

Does he have to be so serious?

"It’s one thing to talk about it privately, but this is Beijing, you need to be careful with your words and actions. I don’t know what your previous world was like, but in this one, it’s like this; perhaps a word said carelessly or an unintentional action can cost someone their life. If offending someone you shouldn’t have is due to some inadvertent mistake... you’ve seen the situation with me and Ajing; there are many things we can’t directly intervene in. Do you understand?"

His lengthy explanation made Gu Youyou become serious, she began to ponder deeply.

The things she mulled over were more than Jin Zijin anticipated.

Speaking of which, Jin Zijin’s status was quite high, as Tianzong’s leading disciple, he did not need to kneel before the Emperor, and the high officials of Beijing would show him some respect. Even in such circumstances, was he unable to get involved in the affair of his mother from back then?

Jin Zijin was the kind of person who always kept things to himself, and he certainly wouldn’t discuss matters he was unsure of, unrelated to whether he trusted or not, this was just his nature.
