After Marrying a Vegetative Princess, I went crazy with joy! - Chapter 55

Chapter 55

Changle was conscious and heard Su Li’s heavy sigh, perhaps the first time she’s heard him sigh. Previously, Su Li never displayed any negative emotions in front of her.

With Changle’s uneasy thoughts due to Su Dingfang’s arrival, Su Li’s sigh raised her anxiety.

Her husband, Su Li… Was he starting to grow tired of her, who had been like a disabled person?

Was Su Li… beginning to resent the troubles she brought?

Who would like someone who could not bear children, could not move, and could not speak like a piece of deadwood?

Because of Su Li’s sigh, Princess Changle’s thoughts spiraled out of control, imagining the worst scenarios.

“Little Changle, oh little Changle…” Frustrated by his thoughts, Su Li tightly gripped Changle’s face and rubbed it vigorously several times.

“Do you think… After you wake up, will you still be close to me?”

“Will you distance yourself from me because you don’t recognize me…”

“Sigh… Wouldn’t it be amazing if you opened your eyes and liked me immediately…”

The more Su Li thought, the more mixed up he felt. Logic told him that maintaining the current situation was the best choice, but his morals and emotions constantly condemned his inner thoughts.

Su Li’s troubled words fell upon Changle’s ears.

Oh?

It was an unexpected turn of events for Changle!

Turned out her husband was not tired of her.

He was actually troubled…

Turned out her husband could also be troubled by these things.

Changle heard the weight in Su Li’s words and realized he wasn’t joking. She could sense that Su Li’s seriousness meant that her husband cared deeply about these matters.

Su Li’s distress and Princess Changle’s distress seemed oddly similar.

“It turns out… does my husband also worry about these things?”

This surprising revelation brought a sense of security to Princess Changle’s heart, filling her with joy.

Su Li had always meticulously cared for Princess Changle, yet he always appeared so composed and gentle. But it often gave off an unrealistic impression of ethereal unreality. Hence, the female officer initially didn’t approve of Su Li, thinking he was too forceful.

Princess Changle had a revelation for the first time – her husband was burdened by worries too. She discovered that he, just like her, fretted over such matters.

He was… concerned about her!

This realization brought immense peace to Changle’s heart.

Though Su Li never explicitly expressed his emotions, his heavy sighs and troubled words resonated more with Princess Changle than mere love talk.

He is worrying about me!

He worries I will not want to be close to him after waking up!

He is concerned I will distance myself from him after waking up!

He is afraid I will not like him when I wake up.

Princess Changle thought and shook her head in disbelief.

No way… No way would she dislike her husband!

Listening to Su Li’s words filled with concern, an overflowing sense of security engulfed Princess Changle’s heart.

“How is my husband now? Is he frowning?”

Changle wished she could wake up, gently soothe her husband’s furrowed brow, and firmly express her feelings.

“Little Changle… you’re awake, don’t divorce me!” Su Li sighed, frustrated. This was the most annoying thing – in the Tang Dynasty, husbands could divorce their wives, but Princess Changle had the title. If Princess Changle rejected him and divorced him, it would be futile.

“Ah!” Su Li sighed again.

Yet another sigh and Changle wished she could instantly open her eyes, embrace Su Li, and tell him loudly.

She would not!

Changle definitely wouldn’t let go of her husband!

She would stay close to him forever!

For Princess Changle, Su Li had already become essential to her life. Accompanied by Su Li’s sigh, the answer that had eluded her for a long time was finally confirmed today.

It turned out… he truly cared about her!

It turned out… he didn’t reject her!

This revelation brought a sense of tranquility to Princess Changle, who had been feeling confused in recent days. Even though Su Li had always cared for Princess Changle meticulously, today marked a significant moment of revealing his feelings. The reciprocated affection was always wonderful, and it erased the frustration of Princess Changle caused by the words of Su Dingfang.

When I wake up, I must tell my husband! I won’t let him go! Changle thought with determination.

Changle relished the familiar warmth as Su Li gave her a massage. After feeding Princess Changle, Su Li carried her to the courtyard once again. The storytelling session was as enjoyable as ever. Fortunately, Su Li’s photographic memory came in handy, reigniting memories of forgotten stories.

Before, Su Li used to make up stories, but now he could finally recall the plots of the Four Great Classical Novels he had read in school. His memories were vivid this time, and stories like “Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai” were clear. Su Li could finally narrate proper stories to Princess Changle.

Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai…

Su Li softly recounted the tale, painting a vivid picture of that story for Princess Changle.

Time passed quickly…

Another day had come to an end.

Night fell, and it was time to sleep. Su Li held Princess Changle in his arms, lying on the bed, but he found sleeping hard.

Due to Su Li’s continuous dedication to Changle’s care, the female officer was no longer guarding him closely and waited outside the room during the night.

Staring at Princess Changle’s delicate face in his arms, Su Li sighed deeply. There was no way… with the current earning rate of around 30,000 points a day. It was still too slow. After much hesitation, Su Li gazed at Princess Changle’s lips.

“I can’t help it… Little Changle, I’m doing this for you to wake up as soon as possible!” Su Li muttered and placed his lips on Princess Changle’s.

Their lips touch…

Princess Changle, who hadn’t fallen asleep yet, heard Su Li’s sigh. Changle assumed that Su Li was still troubled by daytime concerns, frustrated by her inability to wake up, and shared his feelings with her. But then she heard what Su Li said next.

“I can’t help it… Little Changle, I’m doing this for you to wake up as soon as possible!”

Changle was a bit puzzled… Could her husband have a way to wake her up?

Changle had some suspicions. After fully regaining consciousness, Princess Changle understood that Su Li was forced to fake his joy because of Yuan Tiangang’s servant’s prediction. Furthermore, Changle noticed that Su Li would give the foods she had never eaten before during meals.

Changle was somewhat conscious when Su Li fed her low-quality life potions and other items. Although the female officer and others were unaware, Changle knew. And each time her husband fed her, Changle felt the changes in her body. Although she couldn’t speak, Changle had her own speculations…

Could it be… my husband has a way to wake me up?

Still lost in her thoughts, Changle suddenly felt the moist touch of her lips. A moment of shyness washed over her, covering her heart completely.

Su Li had only kissed her once…

It was during the experiment to see if more intimate actions would earn more points. Later, Su Li hadn’t kissed her…

After all, many people were in the princess’s residence, and doing such things to an unconscious person would not be good if others found out.

Furthermore, when the female officer slept at night, she mostly stayed in the room, making it difficult for Su Li to do such things. But now things were different. With Su Li’s increasing care for Changle, the female officer had offered to stay outside the room while they slept. Since Su Li handled everything related to Changle now, the female officer was not needed. She continued to stay vigilant to be prepared for any unexpected situations.

In other words, Princess Changle and Su Li were sharing the same bed and alone in the same room.

Due to the high cost of Bodhi fruit, Su Li had to find another solution.

Well… although sleeping with mouth-to-mouth contact was a bit odd, if it earned a few more points, it was worth it. And for Changle, this kiss made her feel shy yet brimming with joy.

Teenage boys were admired, so why wouldn’t teenage girls be infatuated?

Feeling the forbidden fruit’s sweetness in her heart, Princess Changle carefully analyzed this moment’s sensation.

His lips… so warm… and so soft…

But… this kiss… seemed to be lasting a while?

My husband only gave a light touch the last time, so Princess Changle didn’t even have time to savor it. This time, it had been a while, even to the point that Princess Changle could repeatedly feel the sensation and warmth of their lips meeting.

Despite her shyness, Princess Changle surprisingly didn’t want to break away. This feeling was just too wonderful.

For young boys and girls, tasting the forbidden fruit, let alone kissing, even holding hands, created a feeling of wonder. People want to be together for every moment in the early stages of love, cherishing each touch and proximity.

So nice… She thought.
