Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf

Chapter 493

Lin Feilu curled up in Song Jinglan’s arms and slept for a while.

There was a lot of noise around them as the drunken men were shouting loudly and disturbing the night with their laughter. However, she slept very peacefully in his arms. It was almost as if she felt extremely at ease as long as he was around, no matter where she was.

After midnight, a disciple rang the bronze bell prepared by Lin Feilu in advance.

She opened her eyes drowsily at the sound of the bell and immediately saw someone looking down at her.

Seeing her wake up, a smile filled his gentle eyes.

Lin Feilu reached up to him, and he lowered his head in response. She hugged his neck, raised her body slightly, and kissed the corner of his lips before happily saying, “Happy New Year, this is the first time we’re spending the new year’s together.”

Song Jinglan pressed her forehead against hers with a warm smile, “Mmhm, we will spend many New Years together in the future.”

Lin Feilu, still half drunk, jumped up from his arms. She picked up the wine jar next to her and smiled, “Wake up! We should get up and have fun!”

The bonfire dinner lasted until early in the morning. Everyone supported and dragged each other back to their rooms when the sky brightened.

Song Jinglan carried Lin Feilu all the way back to their room. She smelled of alcohol and smoky barbecue, so he first put her on the bed before boiling some hot water for her to bathe.

The Qin Mountains, which had been noisy all night, seemed extremely quiet. There were only audible sounds of birds in the Qin Mountains.

Worried that she would catch a cold, he waited for the charcoal stove in the house to light up before taking her out of bed. Lin Feilu lay limply in his arms, letting him help her remove her clothes before being dipped gently into the water.

Song Jinglan stood aside with his sleeves rolled up, gently wiping her body with a towel. She was like a naughty child, sitting awkwardly in the water, squinting and flicking water on him with her fingers.

He smiled and grabbed those restless hands, “Stop causing trouble, let’s clean you up and go to bed.”

Lin Feilu drunkenly looked at him and suddenly smiled mischievously. She grabbed his collar with her little hands and said in a soft voice, “Song Jinglan, I want-“

He paused with his hand and touched her head helplessly, “Be good, you’re almost done.”

Before he even took his hand back from her head, he heard the girl in the water say again, “My husband, I want-“

Song Jinglan was silent.

And then, he dragged her out of the water.

Sunrise gradually leaked over the mountains, and the morning light sparsely penetrated into the room from the windows.

He pressed his chest against her sweaty back, leaned behind her ear and asked, “Do you want more?”

The girl who seeked her own misfortune cried out, “No, no, no! Just let me go to sleep, boohoo…”

The New Year had been extremely exciting and exhausting at the same time.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, village households at the foot of the Qin Mountain begin to visit their relatives door-to-door. The New Year celebrations were always more lively and more colourful than the ones in the palace.

Because of Lin Ting’s governance, the lives of the local people have improved. Everyone respects this gentle King Qi, and almost every family would send gifts to the Prince’s mansion. Even though they were home-cooked food or clothes sewn by a novice, basically not very valuable items, it was the thought that counted.
