When she found herself still unable to fall asleep after another moment of lying on her back, she sat up.

However, as soon as she did, the man sauntered in, dressed in his inner garment and his body shrouded in a thin layer of water vapor.

Startled, she pursed her lip and said, “Why are you still here, Your Majesty? Weren’t you going to call for another woman to sleep with you?”

Long Yang stared at her for a while, a faint smile tugging at the corners of his mouth when he saw her sullen expression.

“I suddenly remembered that I’ve dissolved my harem. I have nowhere to go… except for your place.”

Only then did Lu Liangwei realize that he had said that on purpose. All this time, he had never left at all. He merely went to the bathroom to take a bath, but because of his casual remark, she was unable to fall asleep.

The thought of that made her even crosser.

She shot him a sour look. “Fret not, Your Majesty, for the entire harem is yours. If you’re interested, there are plenty of maidservants in the harem. Surely a few of them can catch your eye. Would you like me to make the necessary arrangements?”

Long Yang furrowed his brow inconspicuously at the sarcasm in her tone. If she had not made it sound like she wanted him gone earlier, he would not have said those things to provoke her.

Seeing that she was clearly unhappy, he suddenly leaned forward, planting one arm each beside her leg, and brought his handsome face close to hers. “Are you jealous?”

Looking at the man’s enchanting face hovering in front of hers, Lu Liangwei pursed her lips and glared at him sideways. “Why would I be? Jealousy requires a target, but you said you’ve already dissolved your harem, so there’s no one I can be jealous of.”

Despite her mockery, Long Yang did not get angry and was, in fact, a little pleased.

This girl refused to admit that she was jealous.

Smirking, he closed the distance between them abruptly and gave her a peck on the lips.

Lu Liangwei was stunned.

However, Long Yang had already moved away.

After a while, he returned with a book in his hands.

He sat down against the bedpost as if it was the most natural thing to do.

Seeing this, Lu Liangwei cradled her belly and lay down slowly.

Now that she was pregnant, she could no longer sleep as carefreely as she used to.

When she lay down, she had to be extra careful to avoid putting pressure on her stomach.

Seeing that her movements were a little difficult, Long Yang could not help reaching out to help her.

As he gazed at the girl lying underneath the covers, a thought came to him, and he suddenly patted his thigh. “Come here. I’ll let you sleep on it.”

A corner of Lu Liangwei’s mouth twitched, and she glanced at him speechlessly.

Why was the Emperor so childish?

Was he doing this just because she had slept on Jiu’s lap that afternoon?

She decided to close her eyes and ignore him.

Pursing his lips, Long Yang continued to badger her. “Move over here.”

“No.” Annoyed, Lu Liangwei yawned and turned to face the other side of the bed.

However, the next instant, the man stretched his warm palm to her and lifted her head.

Before Lu Liangwei knew it, her head was already on his lap.

Looking at the girl lying on his lap, Long Yang was finally content.

Lu Liangwei lifted her gaze, only to see the man reading the book in his hands. From her perspective, she could see his clean lower jaw and, above it, the raised corners of his mouth. It was obvious that he was currently in a very pleasant mood.

However, now Lu Liangwei had trouble falling asleep.

Could she bring herself to tell the Emperor that his leg was too hard and that she was not comfortable at all lying on it?

While his attention was stuck on the book, she tried to move back to her pillow discreetly, but she had barely stirred when the man’s large hand supported her head and pressed it back onto his lap.

Lu Liangwei, “…”

If this was the Emperor’s way of getting revenge on her for sleeping on Jiu’s lap, he had definitely succeeded.

Lu Liangwei was too fed up to protest.

She kicked off the covers in a huff.

Seeing this, Long Yang hurriedly pulled them back over her.

Lu Liangwei kicked them off again.
