Chapter 724 - I’m Worried That You Can’t Stand It

"It's up to you whether your dad and brother can return to the imperial capital as soon as possible." Long Yang squeezed her cheek and said with a smile.

Lu Liangwei was startled for a while, then came back to her senses and stood up at once. "Then I'll get started right away."

"Come back." Seeing her haste, Long Yang quickly pulled her back.

"What's wrong?" Lu Liangwei was puzzled.

Long Yang said wearily, "There's no need to rush. It's already night, shouldn't we have dinner first?" He pointed to the darkening sky.

"Oh." Only then did Lu Liangwei remember that it was dinnertime. Thinking of something, she took hold of his big hand. "You must be hungry after all that hard work today, Your Majesty. I stewed some venison earlier this afternoon, and it's still being kept warm on the stove. Let's go and eat together."

"Venison?" Long Yang stopped in his tracks.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Lu Liangwei said in confusion, "Didn't you order Butler Zhao to bring it back to me?" In the afternoon, Zhao Qian had returned early carrying a deer. He said that it had been shot and killed by the Emperor, and the kitchen then proceeded to butcher it.

When she saw it, she asked the kitchen to give her a piece of venison. She thought that the Emperor wanted to eat it.

Glancing at her significantly, Long Yang grazed her fair, smooth face with his thinly callused fingers, the corners of his mouth turning up into a smirk. "You've read a lot of books on medicine, surely you know that venison's very nutritious."

Lu Liangwei nodded. "I know. That's why I stewed it."

"Aren't you worried that I can't hold it in at night?" Long Yang lowered his head and touched his forehead to hers, his tone suggestive.

Finally realizing what he meant, Lu Liangwei blushed and glared at him in annoyance. "Why are you always having indecent thoughts?" It was deer meat, not deer p.e.n.i.s.

Although venison was a warm-natured and highly nutritious food, and those who consumed it would get heaty easily, it was not as bad as he said…

"What kind of indecent thoughts?" Long Yang tilted her blus.h.i.+ng face upward with his long fingers and said teasingly.

"You should know that yourself." Lu Liangwei slapped his hand away in irritation, and after a pause, shot him a sidelong glance. "If you're worried that you can't hold it in, then don't eat it. I can finish it all myself."

Long Yang's deep eyes shone with amus.e.m.e.nt. "I'm worried that you can't stand it, young lady. Don't you understand?"

At his words, Lu Liangwei's calves started trembling.

Last night, the Emperor had worked her to the bone before finally letting her rest. If he were to eat highly nutritious food again today, she feared that she would not be able to get out of bed tomorrow.

She suddenly realized that she had just dug her own grave. Why in the world did she even think of stewing venison?

She was utterly distressed.

"In that case, you'd better not eat it, Your Majesty. My legs… are still sore until now," she muttered.

Long Yang's eyes darkened in an instant. He had not eaten any venison, but he felt even more uncomfortable at this moment.

Was this girl aware that she was seducing him?

After a while, he sighed and stroked her face with his fingers. "Very well, I won't eat it." Given his current state, he did not even need venison anymore.

Lu Liangwei was surprised and also delighted to see him so yielding. "You said it yourself. You'd better not crave for my meat later."

Long Yang stared at her intently as he gave a slight nod. "I won't. It was not venison he craved – it was her.

Sure enough, Long Yang did not touch the venison during dinner. Lu Liangwei, on the other hand, feasted on it happily.

She had stewed the venison for the whole afternoon, and as a result, its texture turned out just right, and its flavor was rich and extremely mouth-watering.

She devoured half the plate in one go.

Seeing that he refused to eat, she could not help feeling a little guilty and pushed the plate of venison to him generously.. "Actually, you can still have a bit."
