The Poison Cultivator Married the Crippled Heir novel · Chapter 24 of 24
Chapter 24: Morning
Wanqing woke with the quilt wound twice around her and a cold draught on the back of her neck.
Yuhang lay on his side beside her, with his hair across the pillow, trying to pull one corner free without waking her.
"I'm awake," she said into the pillow.
"You are a thief."
"It's a very good quilt."
He gave up and rolled closer, and put his arm over her waist, and was warm all down her back.
Dawn lay grey and gold in the window paper.
Somewhere down the corridor a pot clattered, and a voice muttered something about the state of the young madam's kitchen.
"Soup, if you can swallow," Bao called through the door, gruffly, and a tray scraped on the floor outside. "I'll put it here."
His footsteps shuffled away.
Wanqing began to laugh into the pillow.
"What?"
"He said that on the second day. When I was sick."
"I remember."
"I could always swallow."
"I know." He kissed her shoulder. "You could swallow a wedding cup of Heart-Still in front of three hundred people."
She turned in his arms and looked at him.
His eyes were dark and soft with sleep, and the scar on his cheekbone was pale in the early light.
