Reborn Princess

Shen Lilan's eyelashes trembled slightly when he smelled the familiar scent.

he came……

Zhou Cechen turned Shen Lilan around and took her to a washbasin in the corner of the prison.

Her hands were placed in the basin, and Zhou Cechen patiently washed the blood off them.

"I'm so dirty." Shen Lilan whispered.

"Fu Fu is not dirty, it's his blood that stained your hands. Just wash them clean." Zhou Cechen's voice was low and gentle.

Zhou Cechen slowly caressed and washed Shen Lilan's hands, and finally after drying them with a towel, Zhou Cechen picked up Shen Lilan.

"Be good, I'll take you home." Zhou Cechen said.

Shen Lilan buried his face in Zhou Cechen's chest. The blood stained his clothes, but he didn't care at all.

When Zhou Cechen carried Shen Lilan to the exit, he ordered: "Take the people inside back to the imperial prison and sentence them to death according to the emperor's order."

"Yes." He responded.

Qin Zhenzhen glanced at Yanci and was about to leave, but was stopped by Yanci.

"Miss Qin, wait a minute."

Qin Zhenzhen turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I went to Wansang Building to look for you a few days ago, but you were not there."

Qin Zhenzhen said: "The emperor overturned the Qin family case and restored my father's position. Although he is gone, the mansion is still there. I should move back to the Qin Mansion with my brother."

Yanci took out a dagger from his chest and handed it to Qin Zhenzhen.

Qin Zhenzhen was a little confused for a moment, "You are..."

"I saw this dagger in a market in northern border when I was following the prince to fight. The patterns and gemstones on it are very beautiful. I want to give it to you." Yanci looked at Qin Zhenzhen.

Qin Zhenzhen saw that the pattern on the dagger was really complicated and strange, but very beautiful. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Other people give women rouge and powder as gifts, why did you give her a dagger?"

"I think you should have enough of these." he said.

Qin Zhenzhen chuckled, "Then I'll take this dagger. Thank you."

Qin Zhenzhen took the dagger and turned away. Before Yanci could say a few more words to her, she had already gone far away.

Qin Zhenzhen walked out with a dagger in her hand and a frown on her lips.

……

At the Ding'an Palace, Shen Xilan was carried into the carriage by Zhou Cechen and held in his arms.

Shen Yanlan rested her head on his neck, hugged his neck with both hands and huddled in his arms.

"Achen..." Shen Xilan hugged him tightly. Even though there was almost no space between them, she felt it was far from enough and wanted it to be tighter.

Zhou Cechen held her in his arms while sitting in the carriage. Seeing that she had not come back to her senses for a long time after coming out of the dungeon, he patted her back gently to comfort her.

"I'm here." Zhou Cechen hugged Shen Lilan quietly for a long time and finally heard her speak.

Her voice trembled unconsciously, which made people feel distressed.

Shen Lilan felt as if his throat was blocked. He was stunned for a long time before he could speak with difficulty.

"Achen...Achen..." Shen Xilan called Zhou Cechen again and again, and Zhou Cechen responded to her again and again.

After a long time, tears welled up in Shen Lilan's eyes, and he burst into tears uncontrollably.

"I finally killed him, I... I killed him..." Shen Lilan cried and sobbed.

Zhou Cechen hugged her tighter as he heard her cry, "Fu Fu is great, Fu Fu is the most amazing person in the world."

Shen Lilan cried so loudly that she could even hear the words outside.

This cry seemed to vent all the pain and hatred of two lifetimes. By the time the carriage stopped, Shen Lilan had already cried herself to sleep in Zhou Cechen's arms.

Zhou Cechen looked at the tears on Shen Lilan's red eyes and gently wiped away the tears with his thumb.

The delicate and fair face cried so hard that anyone who saw it would feel pity.

Zhou Cechen's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously and he then wrapped the person in his arms with his cloak and carried her out of the carriage.

When Shen Yanlan woke up, he was in a hot spring.

She fell asleep and dreamed. The dream was no longer about separation and death, but Zhou Cechen holding her hand and walking slowly in the Gobi Desert in Mobei. The Gobi Desert was endless and vast, and the time that belonged to them would be very long.

When she opened her eyes, Shen Xilan found herself soaking in a hot spring. She frowned and moved, and her white and smooth back touched something hard. She turned around and met Zhou Cechen's dark and deep eyes.

"You..." Shen Lilan blinked her watery eyes and looked at her doubtfully.

"Awake?" Zhou Cechen asked her in a low voice.

Shen Lilan nodded, "Why am I here?"

"You have blood on your body, and I'm afraid you won't sleep well. You've been through a lot today and you're tired, so I brought you to the hot springs."

Shen Lilan supported Zhou Cechen with both hands, turned him around, and then sat on his lap.

Zhou Cechen's eyes darkened.

"I think... I might have gone crazy today." Shen Lilan lowered his head and spoke in a very low voice.

Zhou Cechen pinched her chin and lifted her head and said, "Crazy or not, I like both."

"He deserves it. He deserves to die. Even if he is stabbed a thousand times, it won't be a sin."

"My Fufu is amazing."

"I..." Shen Xilan was about to speak when Zhou Cechen pulled her hand and gently rubbed it.

"Which hand holds the knife today?" he asked.

Shen Lilan nodded.

"Does your hand hurt?" Zhou Cechen squeezed her hand tenderly.

Shen Xilan looked at Zhou Cechen and only paid attention to whether her hand hurt or not. For a moment, she suddenly felt relieved.

She killed the damned man so that she wouldn't have to live in the pain of the past for the rest of her life.

Shen Xilan took his hand out of Zhou Cechen's palm and hugged Zhou Cechen's neck.

Zhou Cechen looked at his empty palm, his hand still hanging in the air.

"Achen~" Shen Lilan suddenly called him in a tender voice.

Then, an unexpected kiss fell on the cool and thin lips. Feeling the warmth, Zhou Cechen was stunned for a moment. He obviously did not expect Shen Lilan to kiss him suddenly.

Instead of just touching and pulling away, she opened her mouth to try and pry his lips open.

At the beginning, Zhou Cechen lowered his eyes and watched her moving around passionately but awkwardly. Until Shen Lilan was about to leave, he finally couldn't help it and pressed her neck, opened his mouth and intertwined his lips and tongue.

"Hmm~" Shen Xilan hummed in response to his kiss. She blushed a little but did not restrain herself. Instead, she responded to Zhou Cechen's kiss enthusiastically.
