Chapter Text
Word has spread everywhere that the Heavenly Ruler finally came out of his room and announced that a banquet will be held in a few days in the human realm located in Huan Hua Palace. People who have seen him claimed that he was wearing strange clothes and had a different aura around him. They also added that he was grinning the whole time in his throne while he was attending the court. His smile is so ominous that everyone who saw it shiver in fear.
No one could guess what the banquet is all about. He stayed in the room for almost a year so why is there suddenly a banquet? Did the Junshang finally go crazy and plan to poison everyone who will attend?
Many doubted that the lord had good intentions in the banquet that was soon about to happen, but they couldn’t exactly refuse him hence everyone prepared themselves on what could happen on the event.
If there are people who are scared to death, there are also people who were delighted to hear that the ruler was safe all along.
When Ning Yingying heard the servant knock on her door and gave her a scroll, she thought that it was a message from her sisters. But after reading the contents, she temporarily forgot herself and ran towards his husband’s room.
The servant followed her and shouted that Junshang wasn’t currently in his room and was in the throne room which made Ning Yingying stop on his feet. The servant sighs in relief after successfully stopping the consort. She also told her that she was still in his night robes and should change to a more decent clothing before appearing in Junshang's presence.
She would usually berate anyone who talks at her like that but she disregarded it because she has higher priorities.
Arriving at the throne room, Ning Yingying couldn’t help but fall into Luo Binghe’s arms as she bawled her eyes out once she saw the man in the centre. Everyone gasped as they saw her throw herself into Junshang’s arms. She ignored everyone in the room as she asked tons of questions. Luo Binghe looked at the eunuch and the other understood his sign and nodded.
“We will continue the meeting tomorrow. Everyone is dismissed.”
When everyone left, Ning Yingying was only sniffing now. Luo Binghe lifted her chin to look at her face. It has only been a few months yet her face has completely changed. Her cheek bones can be completely seen and her lips are chapped. Gone was the cheerful person she knew when they were still a disciple but her childish and naive side can still be seen whenever she’s with him.
“A-Luo?”
“Did Yingying miss me?”
“Are you okay? You didn’t reply to any of our calls when we went to your room.”
“Yingying doesn’t need to worry about this Lord. You’ve gotten thinner. Let me cook for you.”
Ning Yingying’s face brightened once she heard those words. She removed herself from Luo Binghe’s hold and stood up. She fixed the creases on her robes as she smiled widely at him. “I’ll tell Mingyan and Hualing!” Luo Binghe nodded as she watched the woman leave the place.
Once the room was cleared out of any living beings. Luo Binghe called for Mobei Jun.
Cold wind swift through the enclosed room and Mobei Jun materialised on his side and kneeled on one knee. “This one greets Junshang.”
“Rise. Tell me what happened while I was gone.”
Mobei Jun informed everything about what occurred while he was absent. He mentioned all the traitors who attempted to seize the chance while he was away. He also didn't forget the consorts who were thrown in the prison for attempting to loot the treasuries and conspired with the bandits. Luo Binghe absorbed all the information.
Once Mobei Jun finished talking. It only took Luo Binghe a few seconds before he ordered the ice demon to kill all the rats that dared to think that they can do whatever they want just because he’s not showing his face. This would also show to everyone that he can’t be taken lightly and everyone must bow down to the mighty ruler. He also added that the conspirator shouldn’t be burnt along with the other bodies because he’ll show their body parts at the banquet.
Luo Binghe completed every task that the eunuchs couldn’t do while he was away in one day and met all of his consorts and concubine before the day ended. Once everything was settled, he walked towards his room and prepared to meet his A-Yuan.
Shen Yuan would usually eat outside or order food but his mother called yesterday and told him that they would freeze his card if he keeps eating unhealthy foods. She sent him a cookbook and told him to cook on his own and practise his cooking skills so he wouldn’t disappoint his future partner.
Well, he tried to follow the instructions on the cookbook, but he failed miserably. The food ended up being salty despite checking all the measurements correctly multiple times! He sighed. He really wished he could taste the protagonist’s godly cooking.
Having left with no choice, Shen Yuan took a spoonful of his food and stuffed it in his mouth. As he took a bite, he found out that eating more rice would cancel out the saltiness in the food so he took more rice until there’s nothing left on the plate.
Shen Yuan felt so full after eating. The urge to sleep after eating hits him but he knows it’ll be bad for him once he wakes up the next day. He decided to walk around the apartment to ease the stuffiness in his stomach. He rearranged the pillows on the couch, cleaned the room, and even washed his dirty clothes.
He didn’t know where he got the energy to do those chores but after seeing how clean the room is, he feels satisfied with the result. He also feels sticky after doing all of it.
Shen Yuan slowly removed his clothes one by one, he didn’t forget to fold it and leave it in the basket.
He walked to the mirror near where the laundry basket was placed and stared at himself for a while. He observed his body for a while and slowly looked up to check his face before moving to the tub. He thoroughly cleaned his body and massaged his scalp while sitting on the tub. Once he feels free from the sweat he acquired earlier, he lets his body relax and closes his eyes.
He moves his hand to his inner thigh and lightly touches his hot skin, while his left hand moves to massage his right nipple. His fingers rubbed a circle on his bud as it hardened. He felt his dick harden as well from the movement. He proceeded to touch the tip and played with its head.
His both hands are busy pleasuring him, his stomach feels hot and his breath starts to quicken.
His left hand moved to his other nipple while the other started to stroke his shaft. It was slow and measured yet he couldn’t wait to release his fluids. Everything feels hot. He feels sensitive and all he could think of was his hand on his dick. “Binghe.”
His hand starts to move faster as the urge to release his fluid gets stronger. His moan filled the room and he’s embarrassed to hear himself make a sound like that. But he couldn’t be bothered as his hands moved faster and faster as he chased his own release. “Hngh.”
Shen Yuan panted after reaching his climax. He wanted to lay down on his back and hit the edge of the tub. He forgot he was taking a bath and now he’s bathing with his cum on it. He shuddered at the thought and left the tub to rewash himself in the shower.
Shen Yuan totally missed the blinding red lights when he closed his eyes earlier. It was so bright that it made the water look red and everywhere around it.
