"It really won't affect anything." Feng Muting's hand slowly crawled up Su Fuliu's waist.
The weather was exceptionally nice today, with blue skies and white clouds creating a pleasant and leisurely atmosphere. The Prince's Mansion was also in harmony, with everyone busy with their respective duties.
Suddenly, a loud rumbling sound came from one of the main rooms.
The birds were startled and scattered, and even the servants passing by felt a chill run down their spines.
Su Yan arrived upon hearing the news. Looking at the tightly closed door, he hesitated, unsure whether to knock or not, fearing he might disturb Feng Muting's good time again.
Such a commotion must mean something's wrong, and as the steward, he couldn't ignore it. So he mustered his courage and knocked on the door: "Your Highness, what's wrong? May I come in?"
Then, Feng Muting's voice, filled with complex emotions, came from inside: "Come in."
Only then did Su Yan dare to push the door open and go in.
When he went inside and saw the scene before him, he was completely dumbfounded.
Su Fuliu stood awkwardly to the side, her face so red it looked like she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and disappear into it.
Feng Muting, with a dark face, straightened his clothes and coughed, saying, "Su Yan, what kind of steward are you? It's one thing for the door to be sturdy, but how come the bed is so flimsy too?"
Su Yan stared in disbelief at the mangled sandalwood carved bed. Such a heavy sandalwood bed had actually been torn apart by their prince…
How intense were their prince's encounters with Su Fuliu just now...?
"I'll go get the prince a sturdier bed right away, I guarantee... I guarantee it won't collapse when two people sleep on it." After saying that, Su Yan quickly ran off.
He was afraid that if he was a step too late, the displeased Feng Muting would take his anger out on him. If it was just him, that would be fine, but he was afraid that Feng Muting would call Xie Chen, that little bastard, to punish him.
Those seven days were like a living hell for him.
That little bastard got the benefit but then acted innocent, bullying him and then trying to appease him, only to bully him again later.
He's turned the place upside down, inside and out, into a complete mess.
Finally, he had no choice but to go to the servants' quarters as soon as the seven days were over, and he immediately ran there with his aching back to sleep with the other servants.
But as a result, that little bastard grabbed him and took him back, and even "threatened" him, saying that if he dared to go and sleep with other men again, he would make sure he couldn't get out of bed.
This is unbearable! It's unbearable! How could an older brother be bullied like this by his younger brother? It's outrageous!
He absolutely had to find a way to kick this little bastard, who was like a wolf, out of the room!
Chapter 403 I'm sorry
After Su Yan left, the door remained open, and servants would occasionally peek inside.
Feng Muting glanced at them: "You're all so free, aren't you?!"
They were so frightened that they ran away immediately.
He coughed lightly, then walked up to Su Fuliu, looking at her face which was as red as a tomato: "A-Liu..."
"I told you not to act recklessly, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened, you've made a complete fool of yourself!" Su Fuliu replied irritably.
"If you hadn't resisted, the bed wouldn't have collapsed..." Feng Muting felt like crying. With Su Fuliu's current strength, even if it were a stone bed, he could smash it to pieces.
"Is it my fault?" Su Fuliu retorted.
Feng Muting immediately blinked and shook his head: "No, no, no, it's my fault, it's my fault. I was dishonest, I was restless, I acted recklessly. Don't be angry, A-Liu. Su Yan has already gone to prepare the new bed. Let's sit on the side and wait for a while."
Su Fuliu sighed softly and glanced at him helplessly: "Your Highness, please sit for a while. I'll go get your medicine."
"I'll go with you."
"No."
"It's okay, I'll go with you."
"I said I don't need it!" Su Fuliu shouted loudly, and Feng Muting froze on the spot.
Then, Su Fuliu ran out with her head down.
Feng Muting stood there in a daze, watching Su Fuliu's departing figure, his brows furrowing slightly.
Su Fuliu ran out of the palace and found a secluded corner to hide in.
He squatted there, huddled together, his mind in turmoil.
Then, he looked at his hands and couldn't help but frown.
Just now on the bed, during the shoving, he lost control of his strength and luckily slapped the bed. The heavy sandalwood carved bed was broken. What if that slap had accidentally landed on Tinglang?
This is clearly his own internal energy, his original martial arts skill, so why can't he control it well?
Is it because it hasn't been used for too many years?
He needs to adapt as soon as possible, otherwise, how can he keep having these kinds of accidents?
If he hurts Tinglang again, he will feel guilty to death.
Thinking of this, Su Fuliu sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and tried to "tame" the chaotic internal energy within his body.
Suddenly, something rolled to his feet, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a child running towards him.
When the child saw him, he burst into tears and then ran away.
Su Fuliu was stunned. Perhaps he had secretly hidden here and frightened the child.
After withdrawing his internal energy, he looked down and saw a small ball at his feet, which must belong to the child.
He stood up with the ball, dusted himself off, and went to look for the child, but after searching for a while he couldn't find him, so he had to give up.
He looked at the small ball in his hand and sighed softly. Then he went to the pharmacy and got some medicine for Feng Muting.
After returning home, he went straight to the kitchen to help Feng Muting prepare the medicine.
Knowing that he had returned, Feng Muting quietly came to the kitchen and stood outside the door, watching Su Fuliu intently brewing medicine.
He hesitated for a long time, wondering whether to go in or leave.
When Su Fuliu accidentally got burned by the medicine furnace, he immediately rushed in like a gust of wind, grabbed Su Fuliu's hand, and examined it carefully, worried that he might be burned.
When he saw that Su Fuliu's hand was red, he quickly pulled him to the water vat, scooped up a ladle of cold water and poured it on the back of his hand.
Looking at Feng Muting's pained yet earnest expression, Su Fuliu felt a surge of guilt as she recalled how loudly Su Fuliu had spoken to Feng Muting earlier.
After pouring two buckets of cold water on Su Fuliu's hand, Feng Muting asked, "Does it still hurt?"
After waiting for a while without hearing a reply from Su Fuliu, he looked at her and saw her looking at him with red eyes.
He was slightly taken aback, and his heart was filled with self-reproach.
Then the two said in unison, "I'm sorry..."
Chapter 404 The First Time Being Scolded by My Senior Brother, Feeling Wronged for Nothing
"I should be the one apologizing. I was the one who hurt Tinglang, and I was even mean to him," Su Fuliu said, pouting.
Feng Muting said, "Aliu, you don't need to apologize. I should be the one apologizing. I shouldn't have forced you and annoyed you."
Su Fuliu paused for a moment, then shook her head: "No, I'm not annoyed. I was angry with you because I was thinking about how I almost hurt you again, and my mind was in turmoil. It wasn't because you forced me to be angry."
"Ah Liu, you didn't hurt me, so there's no need to blame yourself. You've just recovered your inner strength and aren't used to it yet. You'll get used to it later," Feng Muting comforted her.
"Hmm." Su Fuliu nodded. He looked at Feng Muting and thought of Feng Muting's remorseful look just now. Feng Muting thought that he was angry because of what he did.
To avoid making Feng Muting feel uneasy about this, he leaned close to Feng Muting's ear and said, "Let's do it again when Tinglang is better."
Feng Muting froze, blinking in disbelief at what he had just heard: "Huh?"
Su Fuliu blushed: "No, if you didn't hear it, then forget it."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to walk back.
Feng Muting immediately grabbed him: "I heard it, but I just can't believe it. Is A-Liu serious?"
"Hmm..." Su Fuliu responded, then shook off his hand and shyly ran back to look at the medicine on the stove.
The next day, Feng Muting went to the palace. Su Fuliu originally thought that he should stay at home to rest since he was injured, but then she thought that she couldn't ignore the affairs in the palace.
Fortunately, Feng Muting felt much better after taking the medicine, and it was nothing serious for him to go to the palace to handle some state affairs.
As soon as Feng Muting left, Bai Yulang couldn't help but run over to find Su Fuliu.
As soon as he entered, he smiled and said, "Brother Liu, isn't it more comfortable to sleep on this new bed?"
Su Fuliu knew what he was going to say and immediately felt embarrassed: "Yulang!"
Bai Yulang walked over, patted the new carved bed, and said, "Tsk, this bed should be very sturdy, no fear of it collapsing."
"..."
"Brother Liu, are you and the Prince having such a passionate affair?"
"...No, we didn't..."
"Huh? No? The bed collapsed before it even started? If it had started, wouldn't the roof have collapsed?" Bai Yulang asked in surprise.
"..." Su Fuliu was speechless after Bai Yulang's words, so she changed the subject and asked, "Where is Doctor Lu? Why didn't he come with you?"
If Doctor Lu were here, he certainly wouldn't have let Yulang say these things.
"My senior brother went out on business, and he didn't say what it was. I was bored by myself, so I came to play with Brother Liu." Bai Yulang pouted.
“But aren’t you always sticking to Doctor Lu wherever he goes? Why didn’t you come with him today?” Su Fuliu asked again.
Bai Yulang shook his head: "I want to too, but my senior brother won't let me come along."
"Hey, this isn't like you at all. Usually, you always insist on following along even when your senior brother tells you not to. Why are you being so obedient this time? You really won't follow him when he says he doesn't want you to?"
Bai Yulang pouted, looking slightly aggrieved.
“I secretly followed him, but my senior brother found out and scolded me. He’s never scolded me before. Although he apologized to me right away, I still feel a little unhappy when I think about it. But I know that my senior brother must have something important to do and doesn’t want me to cause trouble.”
After hearing this, Su Fuliu looked at Bai Yulang, whose mood had suddenly become somewhat low, and comforted him.
"Dr. Lu is always a very sensible person. If he wanted you to come along, he would have let you. Since he didn't, there must be something inconvenient about it. His harshness towards you was probably just a moment of panic. He's probably feeling guilty right now. Don't be angry with him. Wait for him to come back and you two can talk it over properly."

Bai Yulang nodded: "I'm not angry. Senior brother never dares to scold me. This time he couldn't hold back, which must be because I was too immature. Although I feel wronged, I will definitely apologize to senior brother when he comes back."
