Yun Xinyue: “!!” 

There were such outrageous rules. 

She didn’t want to implicate others, so she could only hold back and ponder in her heart. 

When she returned to the inn, took a bath, changed into soft pajamas, and lay in bed, she couldn’t think of anything, but instead felt sleepy. 

On the other side, Lou Bozhou had already returned to the inn early and snuck into his twin brother Lou Ce’an’s room. 

Lou Ce’an, who was messing with medicinal herbs, felt a gust of wind blowing from behind him, blowing his hair to his chest and mixing it with the herbs. 

He calmly pulled his hair out of the mortar, wiped it clean, and continued to pound the herbs. 

“Brother is back.” 

Lou Bozhou sat down on the edge of the couch with one leg propped up, playing with the golden thread snake he had just caught at the bottom of the pool in the cave, and asked a strange question. 

“Is raising Gu and raising people different?” 

Lou Ce’an’s pounding movements paused. He turned around, revealing a face in the clear light flowing into the room that was exactly the same as Lou Bozhou’s, but much gentler. “Why did you suddenly ask that, Brother? Do you want to raise people?” 

“I’m asking you, not letting you ask me.” 

“They are indeed different.” Lou Ce’an replied to him in a good temper, “Raising people is more delicate than raising Gu.” 

Lou Bozhou’s eyebrows collided: “Very troublesome?” 

“Um…” Lou Ce’an pondered for a moment, and smiled, “It can’t be called troublesome, it depends on who you want to raise. Different people need different methods, and you have to adapt to their original lives.” 

Lou Bozhou was concise: “What about the princess who is a political marriage?” 

Thump— 

Due to a loss of strength, Lou Ce’an almost smashed the mortar. “Brother and the princess…” 

“You talk too much.” Lou Bozhou was a little impatient. “Just tell me how to raise her so that she will be more willing to be close to me.” 

Lou Ce’an: “…” 

He felt that what his brother was asking was a little different from what he wanted deep down. 

But he didn’t understand exactly how it was different. 

“What, difficult?” Lou Bozhou raised his eyelids. “Haven’t you raised a lot of abandoned babies, aren’t you experienced?” 

Lou Ce’an hesitated and replied, “Then… I’ll tell Brother the methods of raising abandoned babies, and Brother can consider how to master them?” 

He was now a little unclear about the other party’s purpose. 

Didn’t the princess already have maids to take care of her food, clothing, housing, and transportation? 

He put down the pestle in his hand, took out a booklet from his luggage, and handed it to Lou Bozhou: “Brother, if you have time, you can take a look at this booklet first.” 

Lou Bozhou reached out and took it: “What is this?” 

“When I was raising abandoned babies, I asked others for advice and recorded it. I sorted it out once before, such as how to take care of and respond to the children’s food, clothing, housing, transportation, joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and it’s all recorded on it.” 

“Raising people also requires managing joys, sorrows, and sorrows?” 

“Naturally. That’s why I said that raising people is very different from raising Gu, it’s more detailed.” 

Lou Bozhou flipped through it slightly, squinting at the small print. 

Indeed troublesome. 

He closed the thick booklet with a “Pa.” 

“If Brother finds it troublesome, you don’t have to intervene.” Lou Ce’an put the pounded medicine into the millstone. “Someone will take care of this matter, and the princess will not be treated badly.” 

“That won’t do.” Lou Bozhou’s face darkened. He searched the moonlight outside the window, wondering how to deal with it if the other party was afraid. “What I want is for her to be close to me, not for her to be close to others.” 

The pages rustled. 

Got it! 

Lou Bozhou looked at it seriously for a while, put away the booklet, and went out the window again. 

The window opened and closed again. 

The person had already transferred from Lou Ce’an’s room to Yun Xinyue’s room. 

The room was lit with sleep-aiding incense, and the light and distant fragrance spread into a thin white mist, swirling around the hanging gauze curtains. 

Lou Bozhou reached out and lifted the gauze curtain, walked to the bed and looked for a long time. When the sleeping girl turned over and rolled in, he lay on the side of the bed. After another long time, he reached out and landed on Yun Xinyue’s back, gently patting it. 

After a slight itch invaded her back, Yun Xinyue muttered “Go away.” 

Her voice was too vague, and Lou Bozhou didn’t hear clearly. Thinking she was having a nightmare, he put his hand back and gently patted her back. 

The touch from his palm made him very curious. 

So, this was a person’s back. 

It turned out that touching the spine was a completely different feeling from seeing it with your eyes. 

The itchiness was still vaguely disturbing her back, and Yun Xinyue became irritable and turned away. Lou Bozhou’s hand, which he didn’t have time to retract, brushed against her shoulder. 

The feeling from her upper arm was like a hand, not like a quilt. 

Something was wrong. 

Yun Xinyue woke up in shock, opened her eyes, and met a pair of calm black eyes. After those eyes met hers, they brewed a gentle smile, as if to comfort her. 

“Wh-what are you doing?!” 

She hugged the quilt and hid in the corner, locking her eyes on Lou Bozhou, who was propping up his head on his side and looking at her with a calm expression. 

Was he, was he trying to climb into her bed?!!! 

Yun Xinyue, who had never seen this kind of scene before, was shocked. 

A clear breeze entered the room, lifting the gauze curtains. 

The slowly swaying gauze curtains were like a vertical river, shaking out shimmering moonlight, coating the deep purple sun-patterned clothes and the pure white luster of the silver ornaments. 

“Hehe—” Yun Xinyue swallowed and leaned against the corner, forcing a smile. “Brother, did you go to the wrong room?” 

He was so good-looking, he wouldn’t be so infatuated with her at first sight that he couldn’t wait to climb into her bed… would he? 

If that was really the case, then his infatuation was a bit sudden. 

Lou Bozhou looked at her cowering movements, thinking that raising people and raising Gu were indeed different. When subduing Gu worms, those Gu worms couldn’t wait to bite him to death, and they had to fight until they were almost crippled before they were convinced and willing to recognize him as their master. 

This person, on the other hand, was too timid. 

Sometimes she would approach him out of fear, and sometimes she would distance herself from him out of fear. Her temperament was not as easy to control as that of a Gu worm. 

“Didn’t go to the wrong room.” His expression and tone were calm. “I’m here to sleep with you.” 

The book said that after a person was frightened, they needed companionship and comfort. 

Sleeping together and patting their back were among the methods. 

Thump— 

Yun Xinyue, wanting to change her posture because her legs were numb, knelt down directly. 

“Y-y-y—” She quickly hugged the quilt, blocking it tightly in front of her chest. “Th-th-th—” 

It wasn’t good. 

Although it was good news that the seduction was going too smoothly, wasn’t this progress too fast? They had known each other for less than ten hours! 

How did they complete the achievements of holding hands, hugging, kissing, and now they were even going to… 

“No, no.” Yun Xinyue shook her head frantically. “This process is wrong. Even if it’s a marriage alliance, taking the book of getting married first and falling in love later, you still have to know each other first, then understand each other, then love each other, and when the feelings are deep, then, then, then it will naturally happen.” 

Who starts with a home run right away! 

She was just transmigrating into an ordinary sweet pet novel, not a H novel, it shouldn’t be this stimulating, right? 

Wait, the system didn’t seem to say what kind of book this was. 

It wouldn’t really be a H novel, would it… 

Her pupils dilated and stiffened. 

What a bunch of nonsense, she couldn’t understand. 

Lou Bozhou frowned, suspecting that his brother’s booklet was wrong. The other party’s fear didn’t seem to have disappeared, but had deepened, and she didn’t dare to approach him at all. 

Annoying. 

Afraid that he would scare the other party if he got angry, he kept his expression unchanged, put on the gentle mask he usually learned from his brother, and asked slowly in a gentle voice: 

“Then tell me, how should the process be right?” 

Fortunately, he could listen to advice. 

There was hope. 

Yun Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest to calm her shock. 

Not knowing how accepting the other party was, she tentatively said, “Shouldn’t we get to know each other first, maintain a normal social distance, and spend more time together before talking about anything else?” 

While speaking, she kept staring at the other party’s expression, her skin tensing along with her heart. 

Lou Bozhou didn’t understand: “What is a normal social distance?” 

He hadn’t heard of it either. 

Yun Xinyue gestured, “About an arm’s length.” 

Lou Bozhou frowned, not very satisfied. 

It was too far, he couldn’t even feel the other party’s temperature, what was the difference from usual. 

Seeing that he was unhappy, Yun Xinyue retracted her fingers. “Th-then half an arm’s length, no shorter!” 

Any shorter and they would be stuck together. 

Lou Bozhou’s brows relaxed slightly. Half an arm, he could roughly feel it, so it was barely acceptable. 

“Then you—” Yun Xinyue pointed to the outside of the bed. “Can you leave my bed first?” 

This posture was too scary. 

She was really afraid that if the other party pulled on her clothes, they would all fall off, and she would be wearing nothing inside, directly performing content that would definitely be locked by Jinjiang. 

Lou Bozhou stared at her for a few moments, making Yun Xinyue’s heart tingle, before turning over and getting up, hooking the embroidered stool next to him over. 

He sat down in a grand manner, the young man resting his elbow on his knee, leaning forward and staring at her. 

Yun Xinyue’s pupils widened and blinked. 

No, what was he doing again? 

Lou Bozhou still stared at her, his eyes focused to the point of being scary. 

“That… aren’t you going back to your own room to sleep?” She pulled the quilt up a little. “After today’s experience was so thrilling, aren’t you tired?” 

She tried to hint. 

Unfortunately, Lou Bozhou was not someone who could understand hints. 

He said indifferently, “Not tired.” 

Yun Xinyue: “…” 

But she was tired! 

Big brother, could you please let her go! 

“Hehehe—” She continued to force a smile, struggling hard. “But I traveled a long distance and encountered a disaster, so I’m a little sleepy.” 

She almost gritted her teeth to say these words, putting on a polite smile.
