And, perhaps because she was drunk and her body was hot, Xiao Minghuang unconsciously loosened the clothes wrapped around her.

In other words.

The current Xiao Minghuang had only a thin, snow-white gauze shirt left on her upper body, as light as cicada wings. It contrasted with her flushed skin from being drunk, making her appear even more naturally alluring, captivating the eye.

Such a beautiful sight left Ye and Lin, the two women, somewhat stunned.

They knew Xiao Minghuang was beautiful, but that was the Great Xia's Ninth Princess Xiao Minghuang in public.

The Xiao Minghuang who appeared before everyone was beautiful, dignified, elegant, generous, noble, and transcendent, like the stars in the night sky, unreachable.

But after getting drunk and lying on the bed, the faint scent of orchids mingled with the rich aroma of fruit wine, creating a wonderful fragrance that was hard to resist.

This fragrance was intoxicating, making one dare to defy the world and reach out sinful hands towards this noble, elegant woman who seemed like an immortal banished from heaven.

Or rather, two pairs of hands.

Ye and Lin moved almost at the same time, one to the left and one to the right, as fast as lightning, appearing on the bed the next moment.

Although their reaction speeds were comparable, Lin Wanqiu had cultivated for many years and had rich combat experience, which Ye Ruoshui could not match.

Moreover, Ye Ruoshui's combat skills were originally taught by Lin Wanqiu, so she was even less capable of competing with Lin Wanqiu for the best position.

Lin Wanqiu, who had already secured the best position, smiled slightly and said charmingly:

"Ruoshui, your combat skills were all taught by me, so don't show off here. Her Highness is thirsty, quickly get some water."

"You go, I'm staying here to guard Her Highness!"

Ye Ruoshui was simple and stubborn, her eyes filled with an unyielding will.

"You are Her Highness's maidservant, serving her is your duty, why aren't you going?"

Lin Wanqiu narrowed her beautiful eyes and spoke slowly.

Ye Ruoshui heard her but did not retort further or leave, clearly determined to remain in a stalemate until a winner was decided.

Or, until Xiao Minghuang woke up from her drunken stupor.

It was around this time.

Xiao Minghuang, lying on the bed, stirred again.

"Mmm... so thirsty..."

Her voice was alluring, like a young girl coquettishly speaking to her beloved.

Hearing this voice, the two women, Ye and Lin, could no longer remain calm.

Lin Wanqiu was the first to compromise. She knew that if they continued to stalemate like this, neither of them would be able to spend the night with Xiao Minghuang, and they would miss a great opportunity, which would be a loss.

To fight for temporary pride and miss such a good chance would be too unworthy.

Thinking this.

Lin Wanqiu got off the bed, stepped onto the floor, and looked at Ye Ruoshui's eyes, which were guarded yet confused.

"Ruoshui, how about we negotiate?"

Half an hour later.

Ye and Lin entered together from outside the door.

Ye Ruoshui was carrying a pot of warm tea.

Lin Wanqiu walked to the bedside, removed her shoes and socks, then her outer clothes, leaving only a thin inner garment. She then lifted the quilt.

She gently lifted Xiao Minghuang's soft, delicate body, letting Xiao Minghuang's head rest on her lap, and held her in her arms.

At this moment.

Ye Ruoshui came over with a cup of tea.

Her actions were similar to Lin Wanqiu's. She took off her shoes and socks, removed her outer clothes, and then sat under the covers, leaning against Lin Wanqiu.

However, her cheeks were even redder, her movements were clumsy, and her eyes were filled with shyness.

Seeing her expression, Lin Wanqiu leaned over slightly and whispered in Ye Ruoshui's ear:

"Ruoshui, are you shy already?"

Feeling the warm, moist air entering her ear, Ye Ruoshui immediately stiffened, and a trace of unnatural blush appeared on her face, seemingly even more shy than before.

"No way!"

Ye Ruoshui puffed out her small, pink cheeks and said indignantly.

Lin Wanqiu smiled gently. Through mutual compromise and concession, they had reached an agreement that was acceptable to both parties.

That is, in front of Xiao Minghuang, they would maintain a stable relationship and ensure equal benefits, sharing everything equally.

This was their first collaboration, and it would also determine whether this agreement could be maintained.

If it succeeded, everyone would be happy.

If it failed, their relationship would inevitably return to a state of mutual hostility and cold confrontation.

This was a result neither side wanted to see.

If, one day in the future, Xiao Minghuang discovered that the two most important people by her side were irreconcilably at odds, how heartbroken would she be!

In this regard, Ye Ruoshui and Lin Wanqiu had the same goal.

Seeing Ye Ruoshui's expression, Lin Wanqiu chuckled, raised her delicate eyebrows, and said:

"As agreed, please go first, Ruoshui younger sister!"

"Mmm..."

At this moment.

Xiao Minghuang once again wriggled her soft body, even trying to turn over, but Lin Wanqiu held her shoulders down.

Lin Wanqiu looked at Ye Ruoshui, her voice a little urgent.

"Ruoshui, hurry up! Don't hesitate!"

Gazing at Xiao Minghuang, whose robes were half-undone, her face flushed, and her cherry lips moist, Ye Ruoshui couldn't help but swallow. She licked her slightly dry, soft lips, then took a sip of tea, bowed down, and pressed herself close to Xiao Minghuang's face.

The closer she got to Xiao Minghuang's cheek, the more her shyness increased exponentially. When she was only a finger's distance away, a fragrance, a fusion of orchid and fruit wine, surged into her nostrils like the sea, spreading throughout her entire brain, leaving her mind blank, frozen on the spot.

At this moment.

A gentle yet forceful pressure suddenly pressed down from above her head, almost pushing her head, forcefully pressing her down.

In the blink of an eye.

Lips met lips.

Two soft, full lips touched, bringing unimaginable, infinite sweetness. It was like a small boat drifting on a stormy sea, with the tempest constantly raising colossal waves, one surge higher than the next, one wave surpassing the last.

Xiao Minghuang felt this long-lost sweetness, her appetite greatly stimulated, and she unconsciously wanted to continue savoring the sweet and delicious abundant spring water.

She even used her oars to stir up a storm, wanting to completely capture this spring in her mouth.

But just as she exerted force, this spring water receded like a tide, completely leaving her.

56. You don't want Your Highness to know about this, do you?

Xiao Minghuang mumbled unconsciously.

"I, want more!"

Ye Ruoshui straightened up and wiped the moisture that was about to flow down to her collarbone, only to hear Xiao Minghuang's charming voice.

This melodious sound made her delicate body tremble, and all her bones went soft.

Just as she was about to lean down and continue what she was doing...

At this very moment.

Lin Wanqiu's voice suddenly rang out:

"Little Ruoshui, one cannot be too greedy!"

The moment she heard this voice, Ye Ruoshui suddenly sobered up, her expression dimming. How she wished that only she was by Xiao Minghuang's side.

But she knew this was impossible.

Someone like her Your Highness was destined to shine brightly, illuminating the boundless vast galaxy.

And she, as long as she could follow by her Your Highness's side, would be content.

Or rather, this was her original intention.

Next.

Ye Ruoshui and Lin Wanqiu switched positions.

Xiao Minghuang rested her head on Ye Ruoshui's full, soft, and elastic thighs, while Lin Wanqiu leaned to the side.

In her sleep, Xiao Minghuang felt the sweet and mellow spring water appear again, but with a slight difference.

The previous spring water was clear and sweet, soft and delicate to the taste, with a faint tea fragrance, but it was too raw and restrained, lacking passion. Although she had drunk a lot, she still felt somewhat unsatisfied.

But this time, the spring water was like wind and snow treading on frost, rain and dew clinging to flowers and leaves, inseparable, entwined, like surging tides, back and forth, until she felt a slight difficulty breathing, and it gradually receded.

The second tea tasting ended. Lin Wanqiu straightened up, swallowed all the saliva in her mouth, her pupils filled with uncontrollable charm.

Her gaze was so captivating that even Ye Ruoshui felt her heart flutter the moment their eyes met.

"This woman is truly a vixen!"

Seeing Ye Ruoshui looking at her, Lin Wanqiu licked her lower lip, her eyes roving, and chuckled:

"Little Ruoshui, do you want to learn?"

Hearing this, Ye Ruoshui's first reaction was to refuse. After all, she only wanted to kiss with Your Highness.

But then she thought about it.

She had just kissed Your Highness.

Lin Wanqiu had also kissed Your Highness.

Doesn't that mean she had kissed Lin Wanqiu?

This thought gave Ye Ruoshui a strange feeling.

"I indirectly kissed Lin Wanqiu, that vixen?"

Setting aside the so-called indirect kiss, when Lin Wanqiu and Xiao Minghuang were pressed together earlier, the intimacy and reluctance were far beyond what her own kiss could compare to.

After a moment of thought, Ye Ruoshui asked hesitantly:

"Are you really willing to teach me?"

"Aren't we allies?"

Lin Wanqiu's lips curved into a smile that could enchant a hundred beauties, causing Ye Ruoshui to be momentarily dazed.

"Vixen, you really know how to seduce people!"

Ye Ruoshui cursed inwardly, her mind racing.

She knew Lin Wanqiu and her Highness were born in the same year; how could she be so skilled at kissing at such a young age?

This thought filled Ye Ruoshui with suspicion.

If Lin Wanqiu learned her kissing techniques from some disreputable person, it would be a very bad thing for her Highness!

"Lin Wanqiu, where did you learn your kissing techniques?"

Ye Ruoshui scanned Lin Wanqiu from head to toe. The maiden's skin was as delicate and fair as jade, her figure slender and exquisite, her beauty soft and graceful, without a single flaw.

Under this gaze, Lin Wanqiu's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly. She felt a hint of doubt in Ye Ruoshui's eyes, though she didn't know where it came from.

"I enjoy reading; I learned it all from books."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Ye Ruoshui's expression remained suspicious. She had only known Lin Wanqiu for a short month and couldn't yet fully understand her character.
