When Ren Qingrui heard what her sweetheart said, her pretty face was slightly startled, and a look of confusion suddenly appeared in her eyes.
"What? Protect, protect my sister's safety?"
Seeing the beauty's confused reaction, Liu Mingzhi nodded silently.
"Yes, to protect you."
Ren Qingrui turned her eyes and thought thoughtfully for a while, then frowned and shook her head gently.
"Da Guoguo, my little sister is stupid and doesn't quite understand what you mean."
"Can't figure it out?"
Ren Qingrui nodded her head a few times without hesitation and responded softly: "Yeah, yeah, I don't understand something.
Sister, I have thought about it carefully several times, but I still don’t quite understand what you mean by this sentence, Da Guoguo.”
This time, she was not pretending to be confused, but she really couldn't figure out the meaning of her sweetheart's words.
Liu Mingzhi listened to the beautiful woman's somewhat depressed tone, rubbed his hands casually a few times, smiled lightly, moved to the edge of the bed and sat down.
Seeing this situation, Ren Qingrui immediately moved over gently with her arms supported.
"Ruier."
"Hey, Daguoguo?"
"Silly girl, I just told you for my brother's sake.
The reason why I have been reluctant to let go of you, a silly girl, is partly because I have my own selfish motives.
As for the selfishness I mentioned, you just guessed it."
When Ren Qingrui saw her sweetheart, he suddenly mentioned the topic just now, and the person in front of her pretty face couldn't help but panic again.
This topic is so sensitive that I don't even know how to talk to my sweetheart.
"Da Guoguo, sister, I told you just now, I have never thought about that aspect in my heart.
Sister, what I am thinking about is an emotional issue between the two of us from beginning to end."
Young Master Liu saw the beauty's eager reaction, smiled lightly, stretched out his right hand and gently hugged the beauty's shoulders.
"Silly girl, you don't need to explain anything. For my brother, I understand. For my brother, I understand everything.
You, please listen to what I have to say first as a brother, okay?"
Listening to her sweetheart's gentle tone, Ren Qingrui bit her red lips with her white teeth and nodded her head a few times with an obedient expression.
"Hmm, Da Guoguo, please continue talking, my sister is listening!"
Young Master Liu put his head over the sandalwood burner and took a deep breath, then stared dimly at the bright moonlight outside the small window.
"Sha Rui'er, I know your character very well, and I know you have never had that kind of thought in your heart.
But!
Brother, I just told you again, sometimes.
There are many things that are often out of your control.
Your personal thoughts can only represent yourself.
However, when something happens to you, due to certain reasons, your mind may change."
Ren Qingrui listened to her sweetheart's quiet and profound words, her graceful body trembled slightly, and out of instinct, she stretched out her jade hand to hold her sweetheart's generous hand.
At this moment, she felt like she had vaguely understood something.
However, I am a little unsure.
"Da Guoguo, sister, I...I...I..."
Young Master Liu felt the beauty's suddenly tense body. He chuckled and retracted his gaze, slowly focusing on the beauty's stunning face.
"Girl, maybe you still don't understand what I mean when I tell you this as a brother.
But, as a brother, I can be sure that you will understand what it means in the future."
Seeing the smile on the face of her sweetheart in front of her, Ren Qingrui bit her red lips with her teeth and nodded gently.
"Okay, sister understands."
Liu Mingzhi exhaled with a faint smile, stretched out his legs and got off the bed, stepped on his shoes and walked straight to the desk in front of him.
In just a dozen breaths, he came back with two cups of herbal tea.
"Rui'er, here you go, I've been talking for so long, it's time to moisten your throat."
Seeing the teacup handed over by her sweetheart, Ren Qingrui smiled and nodded and took the teacup into her hand.
"Hey, Daguoguo, thank you very much."
"Hey, the word "thank you" between the two of us goes unnoticed."
Young Master Liu turned sideways and sat on the bed again, smiling lightly and taking a sip of the herbal tea in the cup.
"Rui'er, what Brother Wei just said to you is the first reason why I never want your perfect body.
As for the other reason, it’s because of what I just said to you, brother.”
Ren Qingrui quickly put down the teacup at her lips, gently sipped the tea from the corner of her mouth, and quickly turned her head to focus on her sweetheart's face.
"Da Guoguo, are you saying that to protect my sister's safety?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded without hesitation and replied loudly: "Yes, that's exactly what he said."
Ren Qingrui gently turned the tea cup in his hand, raised his eyes to look at his sweetheart in front of him, and frowned with doubt in his eyes.
"Da Guoguo, sister, I just told you.
I really don't understand, if you want my body now, how does this relate to protecting my safety?
Now, sister, I have feelings for you, and Daguoguo, you are interested in me, sister.
As a couple, we love each other deeply in our hearts.
In this way, when we two lovers are deeply and naturally in love, there will be some love affairs between men and women. Isn't this a normal thing?
Children love each other, men love women, this is human nature.
Daguoguo, you are now in your prime, and my sister, I am in my prime.
Under such circumstances, it would be abnormal if the two of us, a couple of lovers, don't have some love affairs between each other, right?"
As soon as Ren Qingrui finished speaking, she slightly raised her white jade neck and drank the tea in the cup in one breath.
"Da Guoguo, sister, you know best how I feel about you.
Ever since I confessed my feelings to you, sister, I have been pestering you in the past few years.
Sister, I have tried my best to hope that you can take my body.
In this way, sister, I can stay by your side and accompany you in an upright and justifiable manner.
No matter what, no matter what I do, sister, how I treat you.
Your attitude towards my sister has never changed from the beginning to the end.
During this period, my good sisters, Sister Yun, Sister Yan'er, Sister Lian'er, Sister Shan, Sister Wanyan, etc., helped me with many suggestions.
It's a pity that even good sisters like Sister Youyun, Sister Ya, Sister Yunshu, and Sister Wei'er tried their best to help me.
In the end, nothing changed."
As Ren Qingrui spoke, she suddenly got off the bed and walked straight towards the desk a few steps away.
Soon, she returned with the teapot.
"Da Guoguo, would you like me to refill your water?"
"OK."
Ren Qingrui nodded gently and poured a cup of herbal tea for her sweetheart and herself.
"Big fruit fruit."
"Well, girl?"
Ren Qingrui placed the teapot on the low table and sat sideways next to Young Master Liu in an elegant manner.
"Da Guoguo, regarding your attitude towards my sister, I couldn't figure it out or understand it before.
To this day, sister, I still can’t figure it out, and I still can’t understand it.
Now, after you tell me, sister, what you really think, I still can't understand it."
Ren Qingrui nodded and took a sip of the tea in the cup, staring closely at Young Master Liu's face with a pair of watery eyes, and breathed out softly.
"Da Guoguo, sister, I still say what I said before.
I really can’t figure it out, what does it have to do with whether you want my body as a girl or not, and how you are protecting my safety?”
"Ruier."
As soon as Young Master Liu spoke, he was interrupted by Ren Qingrui.
"Da Guoguo, you haven't taken my body yet, but you've already been so good to me.
Could it be that, after you take my body and we become a real family, what else can you do to me?
Da Guoguo, how do you treat Sister Yun, Sister Yan'er, and Sister Lian'er? My heart is very clear to you.
After you take my body, I don’t ask you to treat me with pampering.
I just hope you can treat your sister the same way you treat Sister Yun and the others, and that's enough for me.
Sister, I want to ask you, are my requirements high?"
Liu Mingzhi frowned and replied without hesitation: "Not high, not high at all."
"If that's the case, then why do you still treat me like this?"
Liu Mingzhi listened to the beauty's questioning words, lowered his head and took a sip of tea in the cup with a complicated expression.
"Rui'er, there are some things that you can't just look at."
"Da Guoguo, sister, I don't understand those far-sighted things you said, and I don't want to understand those things.
I only know one thing, that is, your current attitude towards my sister is very unfair."
"unfair?"
Ren Qingrui squeezed the teacup in her hand hard and nodded her head a few times with a melancholy expression.
"Yes, it's unfair, very unfair."
Listening to the beauty's depressing tone, Liu Mingzhi frowned and became silent.
After a long time.
Liu Mingzhi drank the tea in one gulp and put the teacup on the bedside table. He turned to look at his family sitting next to him with a bitter look on his face and sighed softly.
"Ruier."
"Sister, I'm here, Da Guoguo, just tell me, sister, I'm listening!"
"Silly girl, as you just said, my attitude towards you as a brother is very unfair.
However, how can you understand the difficulties in my heart as a brother?"
"Da Guoguo, I...I..."
"Silly girl."
"Hey? Daguoguo?"
"Girl, for the sake of my brother, I ask you, how old are you this year."
Hearing her sweetheart's question, Ren Qingrui's heart tightened, she nodded and lowered her eyebrows, gently twirling her delicate jade fingers.
"Back to Daguoguo, my sister is already twenty-six this year.
In a few months, after this year's Spring and Autumn Festival, my sister, I will be twenty-seven years old."
Liu Mingzhi turned around and lay on the pillow behind him, looking at the beauty with a sighing expression.
"Twenty-six?"
Ren Qingrui bit her silver teeth, secretly twirling her slender green-white fingers, and turned to look at Young Master Liu.
Looking at her sweetheart who was lying on her side on the pillow, the beauty responded with a grunting sound.
"Uh-huh, yes, sister, I'm already twenty-six this year."
As soon as Ren Qingrui finished speaking, she hurriedly leaned Liu's waist and lay on Young Master Liu's chest. She raised her eyes nervously and looked at Young Master Liu.
"Da Guoguo, sister, at my age, I should...should..."
As Ren Qingrui spoke, he suddenly took a deep breath, raised his slender jade legs and sat astride Liu Dashao's waist.
"Da Guoguo, I remember everything about you, sister.
If my sister, I remember correctly, just a few years ago, you personally communicated a new decree to all the officials of the cabinet and all the civil and military officials of the dynasty.
Daguoguo, your decree clearly stipulates that no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, they cannot talk about marriage easily before they are eighteen years old.
Eighteen years old, eighteen years old.
In the new decree issued by you, Daguoguo, it is expressly stipulated that the age is eighteen years old.
As a result, my current age, sister, is only eight years older than the decree issued by you, Daguoguo, the king of a country.
It's just that you're eight years older. If you think about it carefully, it shouldn't be that big, right?"
As Ren Qingrui spoke, the expression on her pretty face suddenly became nervous.
"Daguoguo, it's not too big, right?"
Seeing the sudden change in the beauty's expression, Liu Mingzhi put his arms around the beauty's slender waist and shook his head happily.
"Not big, not big at all."
When Ren Qingrui heard this, his tense mind suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Da Guoguo, if you don't think it's big, that's fine. If you don't think it's big, that's fine."
As Ren Qingrui spoke, she seemed to think of something and suddenly straightened her waist.
"Daguoguo, no, no, this isn't right.
Don't you think that the topic we are talking about now seems to be a little off track?
If I remember correctly, sister, what the two of us were talking about just now was obviously that you didn't want my body, but it was for the sake of my safety.
Why in the blink of an eye did we suddenly come to the topic of my age as a girl?
