I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating

The night was as dark as ink When it was close to midnight, it started snowing again.

The snowflakes rustled and soon left a layer of white on the ground.

‘The auspicious snow is a sign of prosperity,” Shen Dashan, who was guarding the central room, said happily as he wrapped his coat around his body.

“It’s a good sign,” Zhao Lanhua rubbed her hands and replied with a smile.

‘Mother, I’m so sleepy-‘t Second Sister-in-law Shen leaned on Second Brother Shen’s shoulder with half-closed eyes and asked in a daze, “Where did Ah Tao

At that moment, in the Shen family’s kitchen.

Ji Zhao held a pair of iron pliers in her hand as she sifted through the roasted sweet potatoes in the furnace. Other than the roasted sweet potatoes, she also specially made beggar’s chicken.

The layer of yellow mud wrapped around the Beggar’s Chicken shattered with a tap. The fragrance of the lotus leaves was completely stimulated. After raising her hand and slashing down, Ji Zhao cut the Beggar’s Chicken and plated it.

‘Smells good!”

Before Ji Zhao could enter the central room, Second Sister-in-law Shen, who was a little sleepy, suddenly jolted.

“Father, Mother.” Ji Zhao carried the full tray and walked into the central room with a smile. “I made some sweet soup.’

‘Child, why did you make so much delicious food without making a sound?

Why didn’t you tell me?” Zhao Lanhua was both joyful and full of heartache. She quickly went forward and helped Ah Tao distribute the sweet soup to everyone.

Ji Zhao had made a sweet soup with red dates, wolfberries, and snow fungus. The taste of the sweet soup was sweet and mellow, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

‘This chicken tastes really good.” Second Sister-in-law Shen, who was nibbling on a chicken wing, smiled with satisfaction. ‘Ah Tao, you’re really amazing. I was just saying it casually, but you really made the Beggar’s Chicken!”

Ji Zhao could not help but smile. The smile on his face was obedient and cute. ‘Second Sister-in-law, what do you think of the taste?”

“It’s extremely delicious!” Second Sister-in-law Shen said happily. “If it weren’t for the fact that I can’t chew this chicken bone, I would have swallowed it!”

Ji Zhao was amused.

“Dong—”

Accompanied by a deep chime, everyone welcomed a brand new year.

Ji Zhao had just returned to her room to rest when Shen Yao returned home in the snow.

She did not ask anything. Instead, she brought the bowl of sweet soup that she had left for him into the room.

The moment the still warm sweet soup flowed down his throat and into his stomach, Shen Yao felt the coldness in his body completely dissipate.

‘Ah Tao.” After Shen Yao put down the bowl of soup, he immediately grabbed her wrist and asked gently, “Don’t you have anything to ask me?”

Ji Zhao looked up at his eyes that were as bright as obsidian and shook her head gently.

“I know martial arts.”

‘Yeah.’

Ji Zhao’s calmness was beyond Shen Yao’s expectations.

‘Ah Tao, actually, I...’

Ji Zhao looked into his eyes obediently. The smile on her face was as gentle as ever.

‘Actually, I know martial arts.” Shen Yao reached out and hugged her, letting her sit on his lap. He whispered, “It all started thirteen years ago.’

Thirteen years ago, Shen Yao was just seven years old. After discussing with his companions, they were about to go to Thunder Mountain County to study together. However, an accident happened on the way to study.

‘That day, I was separated from my classmates. Coupled with the fact that it was late at night, it was inconvenient for me to travel, so I rested in a nearby mountain temple. I originally wanted to wait until dawn to travel, but when I was in a daze, I sensed that something was wrong.”

“1 wanted to open my eyes, but I felt dizzy. When I woke up, I was in a dark room. Later...

Thinking of those dark days, Shen Yao did not know what to say.

Ji Zhao sensed his low spirits and gently held the back of his hand. “Shen Yao, if you don’t want to tell me, you don’t have to force yourself.”

‘All of us have a past. I don’t know if your past is happy or painful, bright or dark, but none of that matters anymore.” Ji Zhao carefully cupped his face, her gaze filled with gentleness. “I didn’t get to participate in your past, but I’ll be in your future. That’s enough.”

Her tone was gentle, her eyes even gentler.

At this moment, Shen Yao could no longer suppress the heat in his heart. He grabbed the back of her head and kissed her fiercely—

Ji Zhao gently closed her eyes. Her long eyelashes that were like butterfly wings trembled slightly, and her hands nervously pressed against his strong chest.

‘Ah Tao.” Shen Yao leaned close to her ear and gently bit his earlobe. His deep voice carried a hint of charm. “Can we really?”

‘Yes...”

Ji Zhao lay in his arms shyly and nodded gently.

Shen Yao suddenly stood up and carried her to the bed behind him.

Just as Ji Zhao closed her eyes and held his breath, she heard a hurried knock on the door.

Knock knock knock!

Zhao Lanhua, who was standing outside, knocked on the door excitedly. “Ah Tao, come out quickly. Mother has something to tell you!”

Shen Yao, who was forced to stop, replied helplessly, ‘Mother, it’s getting late. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow morning, okay?”

‘How can that do? You brat, I’m looking for Ah Tao, I’m not looking for you!” Zhao Lanhua, who was standing outside the door, rolled her eyes angrily. ‘Ah Tao, are you asleep?

‘No, no...” Ji Zhao tried her best to hold back her laughter. She wrapped her arms around Shen Yao’s neck and quickly planted a comforting kiss on his cheek.

Ji Zhao quickly put on her clothes and hurriedly opened the door.

The cold wind blew into the house and immediately blew away the blush on her face.

Zhao Lanhua looked at her son’s dark expression. What else could she not understand?

However, she had to think about Ah Tao. After all, the lovemaking between husband and wife could not be too rash.

‘Mother, it’s already so late. Why aren’t you asleep?

‘Ah Tao, come with me.” Zhao Lanhua waved at her and led her to the central room.

After a round of heartfelt conversation, Ji Zhao’s face had already turned red.

‘Mother, why... why are you telling me this all of a sudden?” Ji Zhao turned her face away shyly, her tone even more awkward.

‘Third Brother, he’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Mother is afraid that he won’t know his place,” Zhao Lanhua explained softly. “You can’t just let him do whatever he wants. Otherwise, you’ll be the one suffering in the future.”

Facing Zhao Lanhua’s nagging concern and advice, Ji Zhao’s initial shyness turned into gratitude.

However, when she returned to the house, Shen Yao had already fallen asleep.

Ji Zhao quietly lay down beside him and carefully whispered a good night in his ear. After a while, she fell asleep.

The night passed peacefully. The next morning, the sleepy Ji Zhao felt the warmth on her cheek. The moment she opened her eyes in a daze, she met Shen Yao’s smiling eyes..
