Chapter IBMLS Ch.119 Difference (1)
The embarra.s.sment from just now died away, Mu Mingtang immediately stood up and walked back quickly.
Mu Mingtang was about to run back to the bedroom with her skirt picked up. Xie Xuanji stood up as he wanted to say something, but before he had the time to speak, he watched Mu Mingtang turn around and run inside.
It seemed that everything and everyone around her was vain, only Xie Xuanchen, who had woken up, was the most important thing.
Xie Xuanji stood there, he was in a dilemma, he didn’t know whether to just speak or to pretend that nothing just happened.
Mu Mingtang hurried to the room, where there were only a few people there. If Mu Mingtang wasn’t there, the maids didn’t dare to go in. This was the case now. There was a circle of maids at the door. They seemed to be relieved when they saw Mu Mingtang, and they all bowed: “Princess.”
Mu Mingtang responded casually and pa.s.sed by them to walk inside the door. Behind the screen, Xie Xuanchen had already sat up, Mu Mingtang held his arm very naturally, and helped him to stand up as she asked, “Why did you get up so early today?”
“Mmhm.” Xie Xuanchen nodded casually, and glanced outside, “Is there someone outside?”
“Yes. Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei are here.” Mu Mingtang helped him sit down, then went to take his clothes from the box. Today, she was wearing a long crimson red dress with a bright blue top. When she turned around, her dress twirled along with her, like a snow covered flower.
Mu Mingtang didn’t want to look at Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei being all lovey-dovey, now that Xie Xuanchen had woken up, she even more so didn’t want to deal with them. Mu Mingtang took out the clothes that Xie Xuanchen was going to wear out from the box, and waved to the maid without looking back: “The prince is awake, it’s impolite to keep the guests waiting. Go out and tell Prince Jin and Princess Jin that I’m busy at the moment, ask them both to head back first.”
The maid replied and went out softly. Mu Mingtang walked to Xie Xuanchen with his clothes in her arms and motioned for him to stretch out his hand.
Xie Xuanchen stretched out his arm, slipped his arms into the long sleeves, turned around and asked, “Why are they here?”
“To greet us.” Mu Mingtang pouted her lips lightly, walked to the front of Xie Xuanchen, and b.u.t.toned the hidden b.u.t.tons around his collar as she tiptoed.
As the two of them were getting dressed, the maid from just now returned. She stood at the door with her hands behind her, as if she had something to say. Mu Mingtang was helping Xie Xuanchen with his collar, and the corner of her eyes spotted the maid, she wondered: “Why are you back here again?”
“Princess, Prince Jin said that his visit here was to greet the prince, it so happens that the prince just woke up, if he left now, it would be too rude of him. Therefore, Prince Jin said that he wanted to see the prince in person and ask about his condition.”
Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows, then smiled and asked, “He has to see me in person, to see if I’m dead yet?”
Mu Mingtang really didn’t expect Xie Xuanji to be so persistent. She made it clear that she was chasing them out. Mu Mingtang was speechless, and when she heard Xie Xuanchen’s words, she immediately looked up and glared at him: “This early in the morning, don’t speak of such unlucky words.”
After Mu Mingtang glared at Xie Xuanchen, she turned around and instructed the maid: “The prince has just woken up, I’m afraid he’ll have to wait a while. Prince Jin must have many matters to deal with, so don’t bother waiting here anymore, ask Prince Jin to return first, he can always come greet us next time.”
The maid went out with her head down, and after a while, she came back and said: “Prince Jin said that it’s okay, you don’t have to rush, he’ll patiently wait outside for the both of you.”
Xie Xuanchen chuckled lightly, his tone didn’t sound all too friendly. Mu Mingtang didn’t know what else to say, “Well, since Prince Jin wants to wait, I can’t stop him. Let Prince Jin and Princess Jin wait for a while outside then.”
Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows as he listened to her, he lowered his head and said, “Who said that I wanted to see him?”
Mu Mingtang glared at him, and said: “Your younger brother purposely came to greet you. He has been waiting outside for a long time. Is there any reason to not meet him?”
Xie Xuanchen looked down at Mu Mingtang, and suddenly laughed, his tone was emotionless: “When I refuse to meet a person, I never care about the other party’s feelings, just because you want to see him longer, you’re pulling me into this? Unfortunately, I’m your husband, with me here, I’m afraid it’ll affect the both of you.”
