On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 268 - : No Need to Be Embarrassed

Chapter 268: Chapter 268: No Need to Be Embarrassed

Ye Yiheng’s eyes beneath the eye veil darkened, what was wrong with her?

Anxious, Ye Jiu hurriedly called over a palace maid, “Quick, help the Commandery Princess into the guest room and fetch the medical woman.”

Since the Ninth Princess was physically handicapped, a medical woman was already stationed in her Xingning Palace.

After examining Leng Yu Yan’s condition, the medical woman came to the dining hall and whispered into Ye Jiu’s ear, “The Commandery Princess has started her menstrual period. ”

“Oh no, she also got rained on today,” Ye Jiu said anxiously, “Quick, push me to the guest room.”

The medical woman agreed and pushed the Ninth Princess toward the guest room.

Ye Yiheng overheard every word of this servant-master conversation.

He raised his hand and, with Song Guo’s assistance, also made his way to the guest room.

In the dining hall, only Ye Yongwang was left, clueless.

In the guest room, Leng Yu Yan lay half-reclined with a frown, her small face scrunched up as one hand pressed hard against her lower abdomen.

Seeing this, Ye Jiu sighed, “If a woman doesn’t keep warm during her menstrual period, in the worst case, it could affect her fertility later on. And you even got rained on today, how could you not remember your period would be these days?”

Leng Yu Yan explained softly, “I’ve been so busy these past days that I forgot about it. Also, it’s not uncommon for it to come a few days early or late, but I never expected it would be today.”

Just then, Ye Yiheng appeared at the doorway.

Leng Yu Yan’s face flushed slightly, uncertain whether he had overheard the conversation between her and Ye Jiu.

In fact, Ye Yiheng had heard every word about how not staying warm during one’s period could affect fertility.

He was filled with self-reproach and regret, knowing he should not have insisted on continuing the competition in the rain.

Even if he knew that the Father Emperor would continue the competition whether or not he asked, he should have insisted on taking her away.

Since Leng Yu Yan had started her period and was suffering from abdominal pain, she lost the appetite to continue eating and so bid Ye Jiu farewell, “Princess, I would like to leave.”

Ye Jiu frowned slightly, “That’s alright, we can meet another day.”

While speaking, she turned her head to Ye Yiheng, “Sixth Brother, why don’t you escort the Commandery Princess?”

Leng Yu Yan gestured with her hand, “I don’t wish to trouble His Highness the Crown Prince.”

Ye Jiu laughed, “Now that everyone knows how deeply infatuated Sixth Brother and the Commandery Princess are, if he doesn’t escort you, who will?”

Leng Yu Yan agreed reluctantly.

The two left the palace together.

Once outside the palace gates, Leng Yu Yan kept a distance of three steps from him and bid farewell with a bow, “Thank you, Your Highness!”

“Leng Yu Yan, must you keep such a distance from me?”

Ye Yiheng had finally asked the question.

Her eyebrows knitted in pain, and the abdominal cramps she had been enduring grew even more unbearable. Leng Yu Yan, unable to respond, closed her eyes and collapsed straight to the ground.

Seeing this, Ye Yiheng’s long legs strode forward, his arms extended, and he caught her.

His hands were cold, as he did not dare to touch her directly, fearing the slightest chill from his skin would exacerbate her abdominal pain.

He clenched his fists, then hoisted her horizontally and carried her towards the Eastern Palace.

Realizing he was heading to the Eastern Palace, Leng Yu Yan weakly protested, “I wish to go back.”

The man was silent, only listening to Song Guo giving directions at his side.

Leng Yu Yan reached out to hit his shoulder and kicked her legs, “I don’t want to go to the Eastern Palace!”

Ye Yiheng, who had been holding his fist tight, now unfolded his hand to catch her leg, only to find her body was very hot—could it be that she had a high fever from the chill she caught in the rain?

His heart clenched, and he said sternly, “You’re going even if you don’t want to!”

“You, you’re bullying me too much!”

Leng Yu Yan, both angry and in pain, utterly exhausted, had no choice but to let him carry her to the Eastern Palace.

In a private room of the Eastern Palace bedroom, she was placed upon the bed.

Shortly after, a palace maid brought in a bowl of medicine, “Your Highness, the doctor said this medicine needs to be taken while it’s hot.”

Ye Yiheng answered indifferently and with his slender, jade-like fingers picked up the medicine bowl.

Leng Yu Yan refused to take the bowl, “I won’t drink it!”

“I caught a chill during my period, which might affect fertility in the future,” he said solemnly. “You don’t want to suffer unbearable abdominal pain every month, do you?”

How could he know about such a thing? Leng Yu Yan bit her lip, angrily retorted, “So what if it affects me? It has nothing to do with Your Highness!”

“Really, it has nothing to do with me?” Ye Yiheng frowned, “Hmm?”

The drawn-out tone carried a certain gravitas.

“Our cooperation is over; naturally, it has nothing to do with Your Highness!”

Even if catching a chill during her period affected her fertility, what did that have to do with him?

He was incapable of human reproduction, unable to father children.

Uh… where were her thoughts wandering to?

Suddenly, Leng Yu Yan felt her heart start to race chaotically.

“Whether it’s over or not is for me to decide!”

Ye Yiheng scooped up a spoonful of medicinal soup, gently blew on it, and brought it to her lips.

Watching his movements so natural, and knowing where her lips were, Leng Yu Yan furrowed her brow, “Can Your Highness see today?”

Realizing his behavior had given him away, Ye Yiheng did not hide it and admitted frankly, “Yes.”

“Playboy!” Leng Yu Yan’s face flushed with anger, “What did you see of me in the Imperial College?”

Ye Yiheng placed the medicine bowl on the small table beside the bed and cleared his throat lightly, “Just that moment when you turned around.”

Leng Yu Yan covered her face; although she had adjusted her chest wrap upwards, the scenery above it all had been seen by him…

“You leave, you leave, I don’t want to see you!” Realizing she was in the Eastern Palace, Leng Yu Yan corrected herself and got out of bed, “I’ll leave, I’ll leave!”

Her fair skin exposed under someone’s gaze, yet he had claimed he couldn’t see these past days.

“Liar!” she growled lowly, “Didn’t you say you couldn’t see the past few days?”

She recalled when he had moved behind the screen, she had also readjusted her chest wrap.

The more she thought of it, the hotter her face burned.

Ye Yiheng’s thin lips pressed into a line, and he took her into his arms, explaining solemnly, “I couldn’t see these past few days, but just when I was searching for you at the Imperial College, my sight happened to return.”

At these words, Leng Yu Yan was beyond speechless.

“The Crown Prince tells a lie, and yet with so little skill!”

“I did not lie!” Ye Yiheng’s tone softened, as soothing as possible, not wanting to scare her away, “Yanyan, stay by my side.”

His tone was earnest.

Being addressed as “Yanyan” by him again, Leng Yu Yan stiffened, unsure how to respond.

At this moment, he added, “The deal will continue, and in a few days, we will be husband and wife. As husband and wife, such sights should not cause you embarrassment.”

There would likely be much more to come!

Even more intimate matters would occur.

If she was this shy, how would they proceed?

Leng Yu Yan suddenly realized, “It’s Your Highness who doesn’t want to continue the deal, since…”

Before she could finish speaking, someone outside reported, “Your Highness, Second Young Master from Prince Zhenbei Mansion is here.”

Only then did Ye Yiheng let go of Leng Yu Yan.

Leng Yuqing, unable to find his sister at the Imperial Palace, learned from Ninth Princess that she had been taken away by the Crown Prince, so he came to the Eastern Palace.

Now, he entered the side room and saw his sister leaning weakly beside the bed, his heart clenched, “Sister, let second brother take you home.”

Bewildered by someone’s whims regarding the cooperation and having someone see her body today left Leng Yu Yan feeling wronged. Seeing a family member, she teared up immediately.

“Second brother, I feel so awful.”

Leng Yuqing quickly went over, asking with concern, “Where does it hurt?”

Leng Yu Yan sniffed, “My head hurts, my skin aches, my throat is sore, my stomach hurts, I’m uncomfortable all over.”

Actually, her heart hurt even more.

She whimpered before him, looking like a wounded little animal, which made Ye Yiheng feel deep distress.
