Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

Upon hearing Murong Xue'er's words, Lu Chen smiled faintly and then said, "I never said that."

"I merely told Miss Murong that my writing could look even better."

With these words, Lu Chen placed the brush on the inkstone, seeming ready to end the session there and then.

Seeing this, Murong Xue'er paused, unwilling for things to end so quickly. She still wanted to coax more words out of Lu Chen. If he ended it now, how could she continue questioning him?

Murong Xue'er spoke, "Prince, I still wish to see what your most beautiful writing looks like, if I may?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen chuckled and replied, "I'm afraid that wouldn't be quite proper. Later, Miss Murong might suggest I want you to undress."

Murong Xue'er smiled gracelessly, "I was just joking with the Prince earlier; it's only exposing part of my body, after all. If it's to see the Prince's most beautiful handwriting, it's worth it."

Lu Chen responded, "Since you've put it that way, I shall not decline."

At that, Lu Chen picked up the writing brush once more and then said, "Go ahead and undress, Miss Murong."

Murong Xue'er asked with a teasing smile, "Prince, where would you like to write this time?"

Lu Chen replied, "On the stomach, perhaps. It's quite flat."

As soon as Lu Chen had spoken, Murong Xue'er began to loosen her clothing in front of him. Witnessing this, Lu Chen instantly turned his back.

"Miss Murong, undress first, then call for me when you're ready."

Seeing Lu Chen turning away, Murong Xue'er said with a laugh, "I never expected the Prince to be such a gentleman."

"How can Miss Murong speak such words? Could it be that you've always thought of me as a lecher?" Lu Chen retorted.

"The outside world rumors that the Prince is fond of beautiful women; it seems I have misunderstood you," Murong Xue'er conceded.

Lu Chen replied, "Miss Murong hasn't entirely misunderstood. Indeed, I am fond of beauty, but I do have my principles."

As Lu Chen finished speaking, Murong Xue'er's clothes slipped from her fragrant shoulders, revealing her white undergarment. She gently opened it and then covered her chest with one hand. After doing all this, Murong Xue'er spoke, "Prince, I'm ready. You may turn around now."

Hearing this, Lu Chen turned back without hesitation to look at Murong Xue'er.

Seeing Murong Xue'er exposing her stomach and using her arms to modestly cover her upper body, Lu Chen was momentarily stunned.

Murong Xue'er's arms were so slender, they naturally couldn't cover her entire body. Glimpsing her snow-white skin made Lu Chen's heart flutter.

Noticing Lu Chen staring intently at her, Murong Xue'er said with a beaming smile, "What's the matter, Prince? Why have you suddenly fallen silent?"

Returning to his senses after hearing Murong Xue'er's comment, Lu Chen scanned her whole body and then offered a compliment, "Miss Murong's figure is truly lovely, no wonder those literati and scholars were so eager to impress you today."

Murong Xue'er remarked, "You jest, Prince. My body isn't for just anyone to see."

At this point, Lu Chen's gaze landed on Murong Xue'er's abdomen, where he noticed a strange pattern and hesitated.

He had intended to write on Murong Xue'er's stomach, but the presence of another pattern meant he could not proceed.

Then, Murong Xue'er lay down on the couch and said, "Please start writing, Prince."

After another glance at the unusual pattern, Lu Chen spoke again, "Miss Murong, there's a strange pattern on your stomach. I have nowhere to begin."

Murong Xue'er said, "Sorry, Prince, I almost forgot, my Virgin Mark is still there."

Lu Chen asked in confusion, "What is a Virgin Mark?"

Murong Xue'er countered, "Has the Prince ever heard of the Virgin Mark?"

Lu Chen replied, "I've heard of it. Is this a kind of Virgin Mark?"

Having crossed over to this world so many years ago, Lu Chen naturally knew about the Virgin Mark. In this world, it's said that a red spot appears on a woman's arm, and when she loses her virginity, the spot disappears.

Of course, the Virgin Mark is not something born with. It is said that at a girl's birth, a certain special method must be used to leave the Virgin Mark on her arm.

Although Lu Chen knew what the Virgin Mark was and its purpose, this was the first time he had seen a Virgin Mark drawn on the lower abdomen, and this Virgin Mark wasn't a red dot but a strange pattern.

At this moment, Murong Xue'er said, "Yes, this Virgin Mark was personally given to me by His Majesty. Every time I return to the Imperial Palace, His Majesty would personally check my body."

Hearing this, Lu Chen said with a smile, "So it seems, the rumors of Miss Murong keeping a male pet are entirely unfounded?"

Murong Xue'er, looking into Lu Chen's eyes, asked with a smile, "Does the Prince wish it to be true, or does he hope it is a rumor?"

Lu Chen did not answer but changed the subject, "Can the Virgin Mark be washed away?"

Murong Xue'er replied, "It cannot be washed off. It will only disappear on its own when I lose my virginity."

Lu Chen said, "I see. It seems to work on the same principle as the Virgin Mark."

Lu Chen sighed and then said, "Looks like Miss Murong won't be able to witness the Prince's most beautiful calligraphy today."

Murong Xue'er asked, "Why is that?"

Lu Chen said, "With the Virgin Mark there, I surely can't write on it."

Murong Xue'er said indifferently, "If the Prince feels these patterns obstruct his calligraphy, couldn't the Prince simply erase them?"

At these words, Murong Xue'er's gaze fixed on Lu Chen's eyes. Murong Xue'er seemed to show no intent of seduction, yet the way she hugged her hands in front of her chest, lying on the bed in that pose, coupled with her provocative words, made it nearly impossible for any man to resist.

Demoness!

A true temptress!

Without another word, Lu Chen waved his hand, and the writing brush in his hand instantly flew out, landing precisely on the inkstone on the desk without spilling a drop of ink.

Immediately after, Lu Chen lunged towards Murong Xue'er. He supported himself with his arms on either side of Murong Xue'er's head and looked into her eyes, "Miss Murong, there's no such thing as a pill for regret in this world."

The sudden closeness made Murong Xue'er's heart race. Although Lu Chen wasn't touching her body yet, the way he looked down at her from above still imposed a great pressure, causing her entire body to grow restless.

Murong Xue'er tried to keep calm and said, "As long as I can see the Prince's best calligraphy, I think it'll be worth it."

Lu Chen chuckled, then leaned in, pushing away the arm Murong Xue'er had placed in front of herself.

Although Murong Xue'er was prepared, when Lu Chen's large hand touched her wrist, her arm involuntarily tensed, attempting to shield her body.

Unfortunately for her, Lu Chen's hand was stronger. He moved her hand away and pinned it by the sides of her head.

Then, without any hesitation, Lu Chen leaned down and kissed the red lips of the woman beneath him, known as the number one talented lady of Great Jue and titled Inner Palace Prime Minister."
