Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 1525: With Him Here, There’s Peace
The Treasure Map wasn’t complicated, Chu Qianli finished drawing it in a little over an hour.
After finishing it, Chu Qianli felt somewhat heavy-hearted.
The more complex a map is, the more advantageous it is for those searching for treasure.
But this Treasure Map before her was too simple, leaving her completely clueless.
Where exactly is this place?
Even after studying it for quite a while without being able to ascertain the treasure location, Chu Qianli couldn’t help but yawn.
"Tired?" The man buried in her neck suddenly asked softly.
Chu Qianli was startled and wanted to turn around to look at him.
But he kept his face buried in her neck, not giving her a chance to see.
Mostly, he seemed to be half-closed his eyes.
Having slept just over an hour, she naturally didn’t get enough rest.
"Not going to sleep?" She didn’t notice that her voice was surprisingly hoarse.
Feng Yexuan immediately lifted his head from her neck, gently cradling her face in his hands and turning it toward him.
That face, full of exhaustion, eyes bloodshot, was heartbreaking.
"If you’re tired, just sleep for a while, we’ll discuss this tonight."
"No way, I promised Uncle Wang I’d show him the Treasure Map first thing after finishing it."
Without showing Chu Wang, she’s afraid she won’t sleep well at all since Uncle Wang will surely come looking for her soon.
Feng Yexuan, however, focused on her emerging dark circles.
How long has this girl gone without proper rest?
He took another look at the Treasure Map on the table, his furrowed brow couldn’t help but tighten.
"You can’t tell where it is either?" Chu Qianli raised an eyebrow.
Feng Yexuan shook his head.
"Here’s the plan, make two copies for Uncle Wang, and let’s study them separately."
Of course, the Treasure Map shouldn’t be shown to too many people.
But for them... they were already close, so each of them having a copy wasn’t a big deal.
The Prince has formidable Martial Arts skills, Chu Qianli naturally wasn’t afraid the Treasure Map in his hands would be snatched away.
As for Chu Wang, as long as he doesn’t leave the Imperial Palace, he won’t be robbed.
Moreover, they wouldn’t speak about it recklessly.
"You want me to take it?" Feng Yexuan gazed at her, "Aren’t you afraid I’ll keep it for myself?"
"The Treasure Map was obtained with your blood, even if you took it, you could say it was rightfully yours."
She yawned again.
This was the third yawn Feng Yexuan saw her make since he woke up.
"Alright, I’ll go show it to Uncle Wang, you get some sleep."
Feng Yexuan picked up the Treasure Map and before stepping out of the room, turned back to see Chu Qianli had truly collapsed onto the bed, already closing her eyes.
Judging by the looks of it, she truly was worn out.
She had exerted herself the night before and still managed to complete the Treasure Map; such willpower surpassed most people.
Yet his heart felt somewhat pained.
This woman was too stubborn and too strong.
Feng Yexuan drew back his steps, unable to resist returning to the bedside.
Unexpectedly, Chu Qianli was not disturbed by him coming back; rather, as she sensed his presence and his proximity, she fell into a deeper sleep.
There was even a soft snore.
He seemingly really made her feel at ease.
Feng Yexuan bent over beside the bed, lowered his head, and kissed her on the forehead.
Only after, he stepped out of the sleeping quarters.
Chu Wang had visited several times last night, reportedly the last time being near dawn, but each time he came he quickly left.
Feng Yexuan knew that Uncle Wang likely waited all night and didn’t come again, probably because he fell asleep after returning.
He planned to go directly to Chu Wang’s hall to find him, but upon leaving the Emperor’s sleeping quarters, he was met by Leng Ji hurrying forward: "Prince, you finally came out!"
