The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!-Chapter 1011 - 1009: Drunk and Asleep on the Beauty’s Lap
Chapter 1011: Chapter 1009: Drunk and Asleep on the Beauty’s Lap
He watched helplessly as Su Han and Song Chengyi passed by in front of him, paired like a picture perfect couple. Su Han’s happiness and satisfaction, between him and her, drew an insurmountable gulf.
It was as if time had returned to that night when he had stood outside Marquis’s Manor, waiting in madness.
He had understood what Su Han meant, what she desired, he could not provide.
What he saw with his own eyes today, however, extinguished any hope he had once harbored.
Time hurried by, fleeting as a swift steed passing a gap.
He always thought that even if Su Han would no longer be his wife, he would still see her again, gaze upon her a few more times.
But now, seeing her happiness, he felt deeply inferior.
It turned out, he wasn’t even worthy of a few more glances at her.
She was like the purest fairy under the moonlight, deserving of a life gently cherished.
The years married to him, truly, were a desecration.
In Qilin Garden, there was still a general busy preparing for battle.
Unlike Su Hao and Song Chengyi, Lin Sisi sat there with legs crossed, munching on an apple, completely unworried. Everything was arranged for her by Chu Jinling’s orders.
Her luggage was no exaggeration.
Eight large suitcases.
At first, she also felt it was too ostentatious, but Chu Jinling always said, “You are the only female general in the military camp. If you don’t show enough grandeur, the officers won’t take you seriously. How then will you command respect and lead troops?”
“Doesn’t this sound like nonsense? Since when does a general leading an army have to rely on display?” Lin Sisi took a big bite of her apple, crunching it loudly.
Chu Jinling put on a serious face, “Why not? Didn’t my Ninth Imperial Uncle have grandeur? Have you forgotten the ‘Peerless War Soul’ I wrote about his campaign at the age of twenty? Three thousand men were carrying his equipment, all for him! That grandeur, that momentum, before even reaching the battlefield, had already made the enemy shrink back by half. Although you can’t compare to that, you still need some display, right?”
“Three thousand men?” Lin Sisi was so surprised that she bit through a large part of the apple, “I seem to remember now, the emperor fought impressively in that battle. I didn’t expect the display played such a vital role!”
Seeing her getting hooked, Chu Jinling hurriedly enticed her with animated eyebrows, “Exactly! Although you are only a fifth-grade general, you still need to have the proper aura! You can’t let your Daddy down!”
“Right! Load it up! Pile on more, it’s fine! My guard is appointed by Daddy, every one of them strong and sturdy, able to carry the weight.”
With a grand sweep of her hand, Lin Sisi was all enthusiasm. Chu Jinling then was even more willing to pack more for her, adding two additional suitcases of clothes for the campaign!
Thinking of Lin Sisi spending her days in the military camp, dealing with those big sweaty men, Chu Jinling almost wished to move the entire Qilin Garden there to keep her further away from those foul men.
After packing up a heap of items, Chu Jinling lay exhausted on the soft couch. His head had not yet touched the pillow when Lin Sisi generously shifted her thigh over for him to rest comfortably upon.
Chu Jinling sighed leisurely, “There are two great pleasures in life, ‘to lie drunk upon the knees of a beautiful woman and to wake up to grasp the power of the world,’ but I feel that taking just one of them is best! Just like now!”
Resting his head on Lin Sisi’s thigh was far more comfortable than grasping any power over the world.
“That’s because you lack ambition. Other princes, they want both the land and the beauty within their grasp, fighting tooth and nail for it, you bet your life on it! Just today, the emperor dealt with a few of your unfaithful brothers!”
Lin Sisi patted Chu Jinling’s cheek, laughing softly.
