Gu Bailu subconsciously pushed him away and ran off. "No, don't. I'm exhausted after yesterday."
She really wasn't in the mood right now.
More accurately, she was even scared that Feng Qingtian would ask for it.
It was a strange feeling. She could let him hug or kiss her, but she couldn't let him go further.
The feeling had gotten even stronger after she developed a spirit root.
Feng Qingtian was slightly disappointed, but he petted her and said, "You can sleep a while longer. There's no morning audience today. We'll meet the emperor at the royal palace later."
Gu Bailu nodded and hugged him apologetically, hoping that her resistance would erode with time.
Gu Bailu knew that what she was doing was terrible. After Feng Qingtian left, she lay down for some time before getting up again.
What happened in the morning extinguished her excitement of getting a spirit root.
