Tossing and Turning Restlessly

Returning to the stone house, Ren Baqian heard the empress's breathing from her bed, and it sounded overly active.

Apart from when he got hurt back then and both of them were forced to sleep in the wild, he rarely had the opportunity to get so close to her when she slept. They even slept in separate rooms when sharing the same hotel suite.

"Your Majesty!" Ren Baqian called out softly.

"What's the matter?" the empress asked.

"It's something that just randomly popped up in my head. Since Xin Zhe and Lin Qiaole resided in the palace for a long time, they don't seem to have a good understanding of gender differences. You, however, are very well-versed and strict in this aspect. Who did you learn this from, Your Majesty?" Ren Baqian had a curious look on his face and a hint of mischief in his eyes.

"Is this abnormal?" the empress asked as she lay in bed.
