Indulging in Carnal Desire
chapter-263

“Little Eight, what are you looking at!”

Jing Chen was sitting alone, staring blankly at his book, when he suddenly heard the voice of the Fourth Prince Jinghui coming from beside him.

He looked up in a daze, revealing the dark circles under his eyes that were partially covered by the mask, looking as if he hadn’t slept well the night before. Jing Hui was on top of the youngest in the class, while the Eighth Prince, Jing Min, was frantically reaching out to take what he was trying to hide under his crouched body.

“It’s nothing! Fourth brother, give it back!”

Jing Wen was currently only thirteen years of age and had just reached the waist of the weakly crowned Jing Hui. Jing Hui tried to snatch the booklet in his hand, jumping up and trying to take it back, but all of his efforts were in vain.

Jing Chen had arrived to his lessons very early and naturally noticed that Jing Wen had been secretly peeping down at something before the Imperial Tutor had arrived. Yet, his thoughts were deeply immersed in some other concerns, so he didn’t try to probe on what his other insignificant younger brother was looking at.

“Heh,” Jing Hui arrogantly flipped through the booklet with wide eyes, “Wow, Little Eight! You haven’t even grown some hair down there, yet you actually dare look at erotic pictures already!?”

Jing Chen was suddenly taken aback from hearing this, carefully measuring the object in Jing Hui’s hand.

“Nonsense! You’re the one who hasn’t grown hair down there!” Seeing that he couldn’t get it back no matter what he did, Jing Wen could only blush like a tomato and stubbornly said, “Tonight, I’m going to ask mother concubine to arrange a bedfellow for me!”

Even though Jing Wen’s birth mother was but a mere court lady that the emperor had a one-night stand with, he was fortunately adopted by an imperial noble consort who was without child. Furthermore, the imperial noble consort treated him as if he had come out of her womb, doting on him without restraint, much like a little overlord of the court.

He had been previously grounded by the emperor for a month due to teasing the Imperial Tutor and had only been released today, but now, he was up to his old tricks again.

“Do you even understand what’s going on in this book? Hahaha!” The Fourth Prince brazenly turned the pages and pointed them out to Jing Wen, “Oh, this book sure has quite a lot of positions. Come tell your brother which one is your favorite?”

Jing Chen was conveniently seated close to the two of them, and when the booklet in Jing Hui’s hand flipped wide open, the pictures inside it had entered his full view.

He had fled in such a hurry last night when returning to his quarters that the moving scene of the little eunuch’s naked body resurfaced in his mind constantly.

Jing Chen had never been taught about bed matters before. Moreover, the only knowledge that he had about the difference between genders was that a woman’s chest bulged out in the open and the men had a little sparrow living down there.

Last night, he had clearly seen that the little eunuch didn’t have any sparrow located on ‘his’ crotch, but… but wasn’t he a eunuch? Did eunuchs… also have mounds?

While covered under the quilt, Jing Chen had a wild dream last night.

At first, he dreamed of the little eunuch, lying on the bed completely naked and crying towards him in utter pain; then, he dreamed of a girl with the little eunuch’s exact appearance, prettily sitting on top of the walls with long hair draping on her shoulders and smiling at him with her head slightly tilted; after this, he then dreamed of the little eunuch running up to him in a whirlwind of panic, frantically asking him why he had two bulges on his chest. And, when he was just about to reach out to touch them… dawn had arisen.

In a daze, he went to the study room alone, quietly telling himself in his heart that he must’ve been hallucinating last night, or that his little eunuch simply had a bigger chest than other men. However, after seeing the shameful positions in the opened erotic book, the youth, who kept trying to convince himself of lies since last night, was finally able to break himself free from the incredulity that he kept trying to ignore.

As it turned out, his Little Dumpling was not a eunuch.

But a girl.

Jing Chen didn’t feel any anger from being deceived by this as Chu Jiao had initially guessed. As long as Chu Jiao was still by his side, it wasn’t a big deal. He was going to slowly come to understand why she was concealing this matter, as well as help her keep this a secret forever.

Not to mention.

Jing Chen couldn’t deny for a fact that after he had realized his personal eunuch was a girl, outside of being stunned, the other feelings that had welled up in his heart were pure joy.

A girl….

Jing Chen chewed on these words, suddenly feeling expectant of the future.

He originally didn’t have any ambitions, only wanting to continue living on. And after encountering Little Dumpling, he wanted to live on together with ‘him.’ However, in this palace, it was difficult to survive, so he could only continue to grow stronger.

He didn’t want to fight for power, but his identity had already caused trouble to come knocking on his door incessantly. He also didn’t want to be like his father who kept a harem, but as a prince, he was foreordained to take on a wife.

Having only one person in his life was already enough. He originally felt distressed about taking on a wife, naturally worried whether she would bully Little Dumpling.

But now, these worries were put to rest.

Because Little Dumpling was a girl.

And as such, he could just marry her.
