Lin Chujiu said suddenly: “Wangye, I heard that you waited for me at the gate of the city for more than two hours this morning, thank you for your hard work!” After finishing speaking, Lin Chujiu gave Xiao Tianyao a big ceremony in a serious manner.
“Benwang… …” No!
Of course, this kind of thing cannot be admitted, otherwise, he will lose face. But Lin Chujiu didn’t give him a chance to speak at all, and interrupted him with a cheerful face: “I’m tired today, so I won’t see you off. Wangye, go slowly.”
After she finished saying those words, Lin Chujiu ran into the house in a hurry, leaving Xiao Tianyao standing alone on the grass. He wanted to explain and restore his tall image, but he couldn’t find his partner!
“This woman…” Xiao Tianyao gritted his teeth, looked at Lin Chujiu’s back, and chased after her without thinking.
This matter, he must explain clearly.
He went to the city gate and wait for two hours, but it wasn’t for Lin Chujiu, he was, he was… …
Yes, he was just passing by!
However, before he got close, he heard Lin Chujiu’s laughter coming from the room. For some reason, Xiao Tianyao lost interest of explaining.
“That’s fine, as long as you’re happy.” Xiao Tianyao shook his head, turned around, and walked out of the courtyard, with a helpless expression of “I can’t help you”.
“Wangfei, wangye has already left.” As soon as Xiao Tianyao left, Zhenzhu and Manao whispered a reminder.
Is it really alright for their princess to tease their prince like this?
“Okay…prepare hot water, I want to take a bath.” Lin Chujiu immediately stopped laughing, but the corners of her mouth raised slightly. She couldn’t hold it back no matter what.
Soon the hot water was ready. She soaked in the warm water while humming comfortably. She closed her eyes, thinking about what happened in the past two days.
She was not a stone, nor a hard-hearted person. Although she was hurt by Xiao Tianyao once on the battlefield, Xiao Tianyao’s behavior during this period also made her understand that it was not that Xiao Tianyao doesn’t care about her life or death. At least he wouldn’t push her away to die, but… …
She still felt timid in her heart.
She never denied that Xiao Tianyao was an excellent man. Her heart was swayed by Xiao Tianyao. And even up to this point, she still liked Xiao Tianyao in her heart, but she was afraid, afraid that… …
What happened before will happen again. She was afraid… Xiao Tianyao will be too strong that she won’t be able to catch up with him.
She was not an ambitious woman, but Xiao Tianyao was a very ambitious man. To be his woman, she not only needs to win his heart but also must have enough ability to match him, otherwise what happened on the battlefield will repeat itself.
“Sure enough, things will become annoying if I come back. It’s all Demon Lord’s fault. If he didn’t notify Xiao Tianyao to come, I wouldn’t have to worry so much.” If she run away and never saw Xiao Tianyao again, Xiao Tianyao would only become a cinnabar mark on her eyebrows. She would miss him, and she may |also regret it, but…she don’t have to live so hard.
“Now that I’m back, there are some things I can’t escape. Maybe I should think about what I should do in the future.” If she was destined to be unable to escape Xiao Tianyao’s hand, the only thing she can do was to strengthen and protect herself.
Standing beside Xiao Tianyao, there will be glory and power, but her life will also be in danger. She can’t count on Xiao Tianyao to save her every time something happens. She must have enough self-protection ability.
“Oh…it’s really difficult.” As long as she thought of the troubles that would be caused by standing beside Xiao Tianyao, she couldn’t help but sigh.
She was not an ambitious woman, but fate sent her to the Eastern Country and Xiao Tianyao’s side as a joke, making her fall in love with Xiao Tianyao, making Xiao Tianyao treat her differently, and making her impossible to escape.
“Forget it, just live your life and do things you can do. It’s a rare opportunity to live again, and to live a grander life.” She can’t escape, she can only face it!
*Splash* Lin Chujiu stood up abruptly, splashing countless drops of water, and the ground was wet, but Lin Chujiu didn’t seem to notice it. She picked up a big bath towel beside her, covered her body, and walked with bare feet on the floor.
When Fecui and Shanshan heard the noise, they hurried in with towels and clothes. They wiped Lin Chujiu’s hair and helped her change her clothes.
Lin Chujiu didn’t go back to her room until her hair stopped dripping.
“Everyone, you may go to rest, I don’t need anyone to serve me here.” She was not used to someone keeping watch at night. And after learning that Xiao Tianyao would often sneak into the house in the middle of the night, she didn’t dare to ask Zhenzhu and the others to keep watch.
Not because she was embarrassed, but because Xiao Tianyao may kill them by mistake.
Lin Chujiu believed that Xiao Tianyao could do this.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, Lin Chujiu wiped her hair, while thinking about the mess in the capital and how she get the Meng family out.
The Zhou family has their eyes on the Lin family. According to Prime Minter Lin’s character, it will be difficult to count on him. She can’t pin her hopes on him. She has to plan for the Meng family first. She can’t let him drag the Meng family to death.
“Hey… other people’s natal family is a big help. When it comes to me, my natal family is a cheat. It’s not enough to cheat me once, but they may be the second time and the third time. I don’t know what crimes I did in my previous life. I don’t have parents by my side.” In her two lifetimes, her relationship with her parents was weak.
She was an orphan in her last life, in this life, she was not an orphan but she was off to be an orphan.
“It’s rare to have a loving elder, but…” Thinking of Old Madam Meng, Lin Chujiu’s eyes were slightly red. Her hand wiping her hair paused. In the end, she sighed silently and continued to wipe her hair.
When Lin Chujiu went to bed, an hour had passed. She was so tired after traveling all day, so she fell asleep as soon as her head touch the pillow. As for whether Xiao Tianyao came in the middle of the night, Lin Chujiu said that she did not know. Because when she got up, she was alone on the bed, and beside her… there seemed to be no sign of anyone lying down.
Maybe he was shy!
Lin Chujiu couldn’t help laughing when he thought of Xiao Tianyao’s sluggish reaction last night.
For a proud man, it was too… cruel to break through a man’s warmth who was wrapped in indifference!
Lin Chujiu ate very simply in the morning, just ordinary porridge and side dishes. After breakfast, Lin Chujiu was served by Zhenzhu and Manao and changed into formal attire suitable for entering the palace.
It was cumbersome, but it also looked majestic and dignified. Lin Chujiu changed into a different person when she put on formal clothes. She became very imposing in an instant, so dignified and noble that people dare not look directly at her.
“Wangfei should dress up more often. Once she dresses up, she looks as good as a fairy.” The majestic and beautiful Lin Chujiu was not suitable for light attire. Formal attire can show her temperament, but Lin Chujiu doesn’t like it.
Hearing Zhenzhu and Manao’s compliments, Lin Chujiu just smiled and didn’t speak.
She knows that she looks good, but she doesn’t care about dressing up. No matter how beautiful her face was, she can’t stand the ravages of time. Instead of focusing on adorning her beauty, she would rather live the life in front of her.
Besides, nothing was lacking in this world. There was no shortage of beautiful women. She looks good, but she doesn’t think that she can use these good looks to exchange for a lifetime of peace, and for Xiao Tianyao to protect her with all his heart… …
