Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 1016 Northern Frontier 13

"Thunder?" Zisu blinked, wondering what he was thinking.

Why are you staring at her so intently?

Jing Lei seemed to have just come to his senses and said, "It's nothing, I was just listening to you."

He walked towards the backyard, listening to Zisu continue explaining along the way.

The courtyard isn't particularly large, but it's not small either; overall, it's a very nice courtyard.

It's quite grand to live in there.

After walking around the entire mansion, Jing Lei suddenly asked, "What name would you like to give our home?"

Zisu was stunned for a moment and didn't react immediately.

The words "our home" suddenly evoked a deep sense of emotion.

So, she really does have a family now.

our home……

Jing Lei raised an eyebrow: "What?"

"It's nothing, it's just... I'm still not used to it."

"Not used to having a home with me?" Jing Lei smiled faintly, took her hand, and led her back the way they came.

Zisu did not refute this, saying that it was indeed the case.

It felt a little strange to have him holding my hand.

She tried to pull her hand away, but after she moved, he gripped it even tighter.

"We're getting married soon, and you'll be mine from now on. You should get used to being close to me," Jing Lei said.

Zisu kept her head down and didn't say anything.

That makes sense, but I still don't get used to it.

In fact, over the years, she had asked herself if she knew Jing Lei well enough, after all, they had spent many years together, especially under the same roof.

When we were in the capital, we lived together in the Prince's Mansion.

When they went out, they stayed by the side of the princess and the prince.

After arriving in the northern frontier, they lived together in the new royal palace.

Although Jing Lei is often busy outside, he always comes home at night.

We see each other all the time, and we're like family.

I thought everything would be perfectly natural, and that we would never feel awkward together. But unexpectedly, holding hands felt so different.

Extremely embarrassed.

"Thunder..." Zisu called softly, then couldn't help but want to pull her hand back.

Jing Lei suddenly stopped and turned to look at her, his eyes showing a seriousness she had seen before but rarely encountered in daily life.

He became serious again.

Just like when I was in the military.

He always has this expression when he's in the military camp, which makes him seem unapproachable.

"Thunder..."

"You will be my wife." Jing Lei lowered his head, staring into her eyes, his thin lips slightly pursed, showing no sign of anger.

However, such a serious expression always makes people feel somewhat intimidated.

"After we get married, I will not only hold your hand, but also have physical intimacy with you. You have been by the side of the princess and the prince for so many years, you should know what physical intimacy means."

Zisu blushed, subconsciously lowered her head, and said with a hint of unease in her voice, "I...of course I know."

Have you ever thought about it?

"What are you thinking about?" she asked, somewhat taken aback.

Seeing her so embarrassed, Jing Lei seemed to realize that he had been a bit too serious, and quickly softened his expression.

"I mean, have you ever thought about the image of being close to my skin?"

"What?" Zisu was so shocked she almost dropped her jaw.

Is this even conceivable?

She had absolutely no way of answering the question.

Zisu couldn't remember what else Jinglei said to her afterward.

In the very end, when she regained consciousness, she was already with Chu Yueli.

They're making new clothes again.

Chu Yueli turned her head to look at her: "So, have you thought about it or not?"
