On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 284 - : Your Highness, Please Don’t Bite
Chapter 284 -284: Your Highness, Please Don’t Bite
Hearing the sound, Ye Yiheng turned around and was slightly startled, then followed her gaze towards the bed.
What suddenly caught his eye on the bed was that object of pure white!
One set of which he had picked up and tossed back onto the bed, knowing she would realize he had touched it, a rare suspicious blush crawled onto Ye Yiheng’s handsome face.
“I… I just…”
“Just what?” At this moment, Leng Yu Yan was like a hedgehog bristling with spikes, huffing as she stuffed all six sets of chest bindings under the brocade quilt.
Recalling how she was almost naked in his embrace, her anger flared even more, rendering her usually clear and sweet voice decisively sharper, “Your Highness, go ahead and say it!”
Candlelight glowed brightly, dancing nimbly within the Luminous Lamp, seemingly snickering at the unspeakable amorous atmosphere between this pair of beautiful man and woman.
Bathed in the candlelight, Ye Yiheng’s face, normally stern in its contours, seemed much softer and warmer in the tender glow.
“I was just curious.”
Leng Yu Yan muttered, “Curious?”
Such playboy behavior, and he claimed it was curiosity!
Ye Yiheng reined in his thoughts and slowly confessed sincerely, “Curious about what could be folded so neatly like tofu, I just picked it up to take a look.”
Though his speech was neither hurried nor slow, his voice had become a few shades huskier.
He actually said tofu!
Having been pulled into his embrace earlier, did it count as him taking advantage of her?
Leng Yu Yan was both angry and annoyed, her face quickly flushed red, and after a long while, she said sternly, “From now on, do not touch anything on my bed!”
Then, thinking it over and feeling something was amiss, she quickly added, “Do not touch anything in my room!”
Ye Yiheng noticed the delightful pink flush spread over her lustrous earlobes from embarrassment and his profound eyes shimmered with interest, seizing upon the slip in her words with a hint of amusement in his voice, “Does the Commandery Princess mean that, from now on, she permits me to come and go in her room as I wish?”
“You!” Leng Yu Yan was so angry that her chest heaved rapidly in frustration, “Your understanding, Crown Prince, is indeed strikingly noteworthy!”
Far from being upset by her rebuke, he took a long stride toward her.
Bending slightly at the waist, he brought his eyes level with hers, sincerely and earnestly saying, “My bedroom is open to the Commandery Princess to come and go as she pleases!”
Annoyed by the eye veil she wore, her slender fingers, white as cold jade, removed the white veil from in front of her eyes, focusing intently and darkly on her beautiful eyes.
Before her, his unfathomable eyes clearly reflected her figure, her embarrassment plainly visible.
Furrowing her brows, she dropped her fan-like long eyelashes, the annoyance on her face quickly turning into a flushed heat, as she turned her head away and asked in a low voice, “What is it that Your Highness wishes to ask?”
Seeing her bashfulness, Ye Yiheng straightened up, leisurely eying her as a languid smile bloomed in his phoenix eyes.
“I came to ask the Commandery Princess, the way your three brothers toasted with such peculiar fervor, could it be that you have spoken ill of me behind my back, making them feel guilty?”
Upon hearing this, Leng Yu Yan turned away, her back against him to prevent him from seeing her facial expression.
“You’re overthinking it, Your Highness. My brothers simply felt it was rare for you to visit our home. Besides, you are the Crown Prince, and out of respect, they offered toasts.”
She had chosen him as her partner in the trade deal largely because of his inability to engage in human intimacy. Her brothers, being men themselves, felt sympathy for him, thus the toasting.
Although he was aware that her reason for selecting him was his hidden cold disease, she could not possibly speak of the true circumstances behind today’s toasting.
The man was too deep in thought and far too clever; with just a hint, he could discern everyone’s intentions clearly and plainly.
Should he learn the truth, there was no telling how he might punish her.
Bite her neck?
Impossible!
She had to go to the Ministry of War for her training tomorrow. If someone saw a mark on her neck, how would she explain it?
Even with makeup to hide them, who knows what kind of physical labor the Ministry of War might require—sweat could reveal the red marks and arouse unwanted speculation.
Ye Yiheng raised an eyebrow, “Is the Commandery Princess hiding the truth, seeking punishment?”
His voice was like a sudden autumn wind, cold and commanding.
Leng Yu Yan instinctively reached for her neck, suppressing her displeasure, and said in a delicate, soft voice, “I have not lied, Your Highness. It is late at night; you should return.”
“You’re clearly lying. What are you really trying to nibble at here?”
The flickering candlelight illuminated his face, which resembled that of an Immortal. His long eyebrows extended into his hairline, and his phoenix eyes were exceptionally beautiful, exuding an innate nobility.
At the word “nibble,” Leng Yu Yan shivered all over, her outer robe slipping off one shoulder.
She was about to reach for it when, unexpectedly, the person behind her turned her around and her outer robe slid to the ground.
Revealing a loosely fastened silk nightgown that draped beautifully.
With his height, he could easily see into her slightly parted gown to the heart clothes beneath. Panicked, Leng Yu Yan quickly covered her chest.
“Could Your Highness refrain from nibbling at my neck?”
His gaze slightly narrowed, “Why?”
Did this woman still not distinguish between “nibble” and “kiss”?
Suddenly, he reached out, his cool fingertips lightly pinching the skin on the back of her neck.
“I need to go to the Ministry of War tomorrow.”
As she spoke, her voice grew quieter and quieter, almost like a mosquito’s whine, filled with fear that if she angered him, he might snap her delicate, fragile neck in his grip.
He had long desired to kiss her lips, but his cold disease had prevented him from doing so…
Thinking thus, Ye Yiheng’s handsome features became shadowed as he stretched out a long arm, encircling her slender waist with one hand, then bent his head down…
Leng Yu Yan was terrified, trembling uncontrollably. Even though he had nibbled at her neck a few times before, now, in the dead of night, she was embarrassingly scared.
Her mind was filled with dream scenes of herself being choked or caressed by him.
On the couch, on a chair, on the bed, on a table, sitting, standing, lying down, being held…
The various ways he choked her in her dreams terrified Leng Yu Yan to no end.
If it weren’t for those dreams, she wouldn’t be so afraid of him.
But the dreams were too vivid, as if she had actually experienced them. Moreover, the dream of her father and brother going off to war made her take her dreams seriously and guard against them.
Now, his head was slowly moving towards her neck, his hand imprisoning her waist, and the other still gently stroking the back of her neck, which filled Leng Yu Yan with ever-growing dread.
The Madman was about to nibble at her neck!
She resigned herself and closed her eyes as if doing so could somehow make her less afraid of him.
Ye Yiheng’s lips curved into a smile that wasn’t really a smile, his gaze shifting from her neck to her tender and adorable earlobe.
His lips parted, taking it into his mouth.
His cold breath fanned out on her ear, provoking a strange sensation—tingling, thrilling, ticklish…

Startled, Leng Yu Yan’s eyes widened, and she involuntarily made a sound: “Mmh…”
Realizing the shamefulness of her own noises, she swiftly bit her lip, commanding herself not to make any more sounds.
But the Madman seemed to intentionally defy her, purposely dragging his sharp teeth across her earlobe. Though he didn’t bite down, that peculiar sensation rushed instantly through her limbs.
Aside from the strange sensation, panic surged in her heart, as if the next moment, if she didn’t comply with his wishes, he would bite off her earlobe.
“Your Highness, please don’t bite!”
Due to her panic, her voice sounded pitifully moving in the stillness of the night.
