[under editing]Transmigration : Wake Up as an Annoying Concubine

33 - Match made in heaven

If you guys reading this while holding a pillow, prepare to buy a new one.

Sounds of chirping birds and the morning rays that slide between the two windows, revealing two pairs of legs tangling.

Zhang Wei had been awake for awhile. But he has no intention to get up. Looking at the angel sleeping soundly in his arms, nothing can describe how happy he is right now.

Zhang Wei staring down at Xiu Ying who looks like he won't wake up for another hour. He removes strands of hair and gently caressing the fair cheek.

Due to little "disturbance", Xiu Ying nestle into Zhang Wei's chest, hiding his face.

Feeling something touching the top of his head, Xiu Ying half-opened his lids and lifts his head. He blinks repeatedly.

"You're awake?" Zhang Wei asked.

Xiu Ying groans and lowers his head back, tighten his arm around Zhang Wei. The emperor chuckles. His Ying-er is so cute!

"It has passed chén hours (7-8am). You don't feel hungry?" Zhang Wei keeps caressing Xiu Ying's hair.

"But... Sleepy..." Xiu Ying answered with a muffled voice.

"Alright. Let's sleep some more." Zhang Wei pulls the quilt over Xiu Ying's body.

The two lovebirds have their breakfast late. Xiu Ying blushes when his parents smile meaningfully, especially when he came to the dining hall hand-in-hand with Zhang Wei. But the emperor walks proudly with a wide smile plastered on his face.

After breakfast, Zhang Wei went to meet Li Shizen.

"Seems like everything going well for you, Your Majesty?" asked Li Shizen while sipping his tea.

Zhang Wei rubs his nape, "Well... Thanks to you, Lord Li. And Madam Feng too. If not because of the two of you, maybe both of us still didn't have a heart-to-heart talk and never solve the problem. Thank you, Lord Li."

Li Shizen waves his hand, "I just helped Xiu Ying to open his eyes and make him realize what he should do. He followed or not my advice, that's out of my power. No one can force him. So, what he did was purely because of what he truly feels."

Zhang Wei smiles. He clears his throat, "Lord Li... What I said before, I meant it. I want to make Xiu Ying as my empress." He sits straight, looking serious.

Just like any typical father, Li Shizen staring straight into Zhang Wei's eyes, even though in front of him is the emperor, he gives out a more intimidating look, "Then, Your Majesty must promise to protect him at all cost. I always care for my son like my own life and I want Your Majesty to do it better. If anything happened to my son because of Your Majesty's carelessness, just prepare to look for another Prime Minister."

Zhang Wei nods. "I promise. And.. If we're alone, I don't mind if you want to call me by name just like Madam Feng did." He smiles sheepishly.

Li Shizen scrunched up his nose and rolls his eyes.

After the talk with Li Shizen, Zhang Wei went to find his lover.

Xiu Ying is sitting in the garden with Madam Feng. Madam Feng can't retract her smiles after Xiu Ying told her that right now he's getting along well with Zhang Wei. Being teased by her mother, Xiu Ying can't keep a straight face and blush.

"Mother, Ying-er.." Zhang Wei greets from behind. He managed to plant a kiss on Xiu Ying's forehead before he took a seat.

Madam Feng almost tears her handkerchief after witnessing their moments.
