Hearing Chu Yuqin’s response, Lu Chen was momentarily stunned.

So that was it?

He had been wondering why Wang Qingci showed no signs of illness, and yet, half a year had passed without any reaction from her stomach.

How dare this female slave take the emotions he imparted to her and use her inner strength to expel them?

The next time he saw her, he would have to punish her severely, to let her know the power of him as her master!

This person had actually kept it from him for half a year!

He had even suspected there might be something wrong with his own body, but it turned out to be her problem all along.

At that moment, Chu Yuqin reminded him, “Chen’er, even though Wang Qingci is a Ninth Grade martial artist, her public identity is that of the Oiran of Hundred Flowers Tower. It’s not a problem if you are just playing around, but if you want to take her as a concubine, it could affect your reputation.”

Chu Yuqin did indeed have some preconceived notions about Wang Qingci, but her reminder was not without reason; this era placed great importance on one’s status.

Even if an Oiran was redeemed, or purchased by a wealthy family, they were often still unable to become a concubine.

Moreover, for Lu Chen, a prince, to take an Oiran as a concubine would become the subject of ridicule once it spread.

Hearing Chu Yuqin’s reminder, Lu Chen said with a smile, “Madam Chu, don’t you think taking her as my concubine could buy me more time to grow?”

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Chu Yuqin was taken aback for a moment, then asked, “Do you mean you want to continue to tarnish your name to numb the court, making them believe you are still that useless prince?”

Lu Chen replied, “Now is a time of many affairs. Although North City is not in the direct scrutiny of the court, there are still many who are watching over it, making my every move particularly important.”

Chu Yuqin thought for a moment and then sighed softly, “Chen’er, you have grown up and have your own ideas, do whatever you wish. If you encounter any trouble, tell me, and I will persuade your grandfather to help you.”

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled and said, “Madam Chu, I have indeed encountered a bit of trouble recently.”

Chu Yuqin asked with concern, “What trouble?”

Lu Chen answered, “Lately, when 1 practice martial arts, 1 always feel a breath circling in my dantian, which makes me very uncomfortable. Could you help me check it out, and see what’s going on?”

Hearing this, Chu Yuqin was taken aback.

When Lu Chen was young, she did often check his body, but now that he had grown so much and even had his own wife, it was somewhat inappropriate for her to check his body at this time.

After all, he was an adult, and there are differences between men and women.

Chu Yuqin thought for a moment, and then said, “Chen’er, you are an adult now, and it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to check your body anymore. I will ask General Li to come and see you later; he should be able to see what the problem is.”

Hearing this, Lu Chen said, “Madam Chu, General Li is just a martial artist of the Eighth Grade, and it hasn’t been long since his breakthrough to that status. He doesn’t have your extensive experience.”

Chu Yuqin then said, “Don’t you still have the Brocade Guard? Commander Qin should still be in Yan County, right? He is a Grandmaster. Let him check it.”

Chu Yuqin refused to check Lu Chen’s body herself; she was afraid that intimate contact might occur once again.

After hearing Chu Yuqin’s words, Lu Chen sighed deeply and then said, “Ah, I see, Madam Chu. You despise me now.”

Chu Yuqin immediately said, “Chen’er, how can you talk like that? I am your aunt, how could 1 possibly despise you?”

Lu Chen said, “When 1 was younger, you often checked my body, but now that I have grown up, you refuse to do so anymore. If that’s not despising me, then what is it?”

Hearing his words, Chu Yuqin’s face turned a shade of red, spreading even to her neck.

Chu Yuqin was about to say something when Lu Chen immediately turned around and said, “Madam Chu, if you don’t want to help me check, then forget it. If something really happens, then I’ll just be dead, and it seems you no longer care about me anyway.”

Upon hearing these words, Chu Yuqin’s mind went blank, then she said somewhat angrily, “Chen’er, how can you talk about life and death so casually?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Yuqin raised her hand and grabbed Lu Chen’s wrist.

The corners of Lu Chen’s mouth curved slightly upwards, but since he was turned away from Chu Yuqin, she couldn’t see it.

Lu Chen had long noticed that recently, Chu Yuqin had been finding ways to avoid him.

Of course, Lu Chen understood why; Chu Yuqin was afraid that things would escalate between them and she would end up becoming his woman.

After all, she was a relatively traditional woman and wasn’t able to come to terms with such a thing just yet.

After holding Lu Chen’s wrist, Chu Yuqin sighed and said, “Come to the room, 1’11 have a look and also help you regulate your inner strength.”

Chu Yuqin had actually wanted to check on Lu Chen’s body for a while now. Although Lu Chen had a fortunate destiny, training in martial arts is still an individual matter, and nobody knows if something might go wrong.

However, thinking about that incident from the past, and knowing that Lu Chen, this little rascal, had been coveting her body all along, she had to restrain herself and never took the initiative to suggest checking on his body.

Seeing that Chu Yuqin agreed, Lu Chen immediately said, “Then I’m troubling you, Madam Chu.”

Shortly after, they arrived at the study.

When Chu Yuqin smelled an odd scent in the study, a peculiar expression appeared on her face.

“What is this smell? Why is it so unpleasant?”

Although Chu Yuqin was already twenty-eight, almost twenty-nine, she had never been involved in ‘those kinds of matters,’ so there were some things she was still clueless about.

Lu Chen said indifferently, “This is a new perfume developed by the Prince’s Mansion.”

Chu Yuqin said with a hint of surprise, “Perfume? Who would buy a perfume with this kind of scent?”

As she said that, Chu Yuqin sniffed the air and then continued, “Could it be that being exposed to this scent has caused some issue with your body during your training?”

Sometimes, mishaps during training can be caused by the environment, so Chu Yuqin suspected that the overpowering smell may have caused some problems for Chen’er during his training.

Lu Chen said, “I don’t know. Maybe there is some connection.”

At this moment, Chu Yuqin glanced at Lu Chen and, blushing, said, “Take off your upper clothing. I want to look at your condition first.”

No sooner had Chu Yuqin finished speaking, than Lu Chen skillfully took off his top.

Seeing this, Chu Yuqin’s face grew even hotter, as if she were running a fever, her ears turning red as well.

With the removal of Lu Chen’s upper clothing, his muscular body was revealed before Chu Yuqin.

Seeing Lu Chen’s neatly lined eight-pack abs, Chu Yuqin was momentarily dazed.

When Lu Chen married Mu Zixuan, Chu Yuqin had checked his body once, and at that time, there weren’t noticeable abs, just a little belly.

Now that Lu Chen actually had such pronounced muscles, it seemed unbelievable to Chu Yuqin.

Although she knew that Lu Chen was a martial artist, she hadn’t actually seen how he trained, and for someone who hadn’t trained much, to have such a sturdy physique was indeed surprising..
