Yu Hao lightly nodded, agreeing with Mo Lian Cheng.
Indeed, he made her go all the way round the manor. From the north side following to the west side, then from the west side running to the receiving room, even one with a good-temper oughted to get irritated, right?
He simply liked to see her getting mad.
“This subordinate doesn’t understand.” Yu Hao slightly lowered his head. He didn’t completely understand Mo Lian Cheng’s real meaning.
“There’s no need for you to understand. What has she been doing these two days?”
“Replying to your Highness. Her Ladyship was merely moving around inside the Xue Yuan this whole time. It seemed like she was getting familiar with terrain. Yet, when one looked closely, it seemed not to be the case. However……..regarding that tall wall that leads to the outside of the manor, she quite keeps her eyes on it.”
“Oh. Is that so?”
“Her Ladyship had not much contact with people inside the manor. Just occasionally chatting about some daily matters. Beside a maidservant Jing Xin who is following her Ladyship around all day long, there are two more women. One is called Su Yue La and the other Xiao Wei. But they are both busy in the kitchen and medicine room. There’s nothing unusual with their actions or behavior.”
“Oh?”
“Should we continue dispatching people to watch them?” Yu Hao asked.
“Those who should be monitored still need to be kept an eye on. One is bound to put on a show, right?” Mo Lian Cheng smiled lightly. He was actually surprised by Qu Tang’er’s quietness. Anyway, he agreed to marry her, but he didn’t agree to let her do whatever she pleased. Flower vase was pretty when it was displayed, but it couldn’t be fiddled with. Once it shattered, it would be of no value.
Yu Hao became quiet. He didn’t ask any more questions.
Outside the room, two silhouettes hastily charged toward their direction.
“That man truly deserves a good spanking.” Qu Tang’er cursed out aloud while walking. She honestly couldn’t bear with it.
“Master, keep your voice down a little. People will hear.” Jing Xin warned, in order to make her restrain herself a little.
“Keep down voice your ass! If this can be tolerated then what cannot be? If that man doesn’t deserve a good smacking then he deserves a good discipline. I’m sure that he did it on purpose.” Qu Tang’er was sure about this matter. One coincidence could be reasoned. But several successive coincidences would appear intentional.
“Maybe his Highness truly missed us unintentionally.”
“Missed us? If only it was possible. From the current perspective, I’m afraid we will have a rough time in the future.”
“Master…..”
“Let’s stop talking about this. We are almost there.”
Qu Tang’er and Jing Xin entered Shuang Yuan.
There were imperial guards keeping a watch. There were also maidservants and old female servants who were passing by. They, one by one, saluted Qu Tang’er.
After being given the tip, she finally got to see Mo Lian Cheng. She has walked for so long, yet, now she see that person leisurely sipping a tea. Just, it was the rear of his that was facing her. His long fine black hair was spread down on the back. It has actually added him a transcending the world’s air. On the table beside him were arranged pastries and fruits.
This kind of contrast made Qu Tang’er particularly annoyed. The grievance inside her heart, again, raised by another two points.
However, she told herself that she had to endure…..
“This subordinate greets your Ladyship“ Not too hurriedly nor too slowly, Yu Hao quietly spoke with head slightly lowered.
“Uh? There’s no need to be so polite.” Qu Tang’er softly uttered, quite good-natured.
“This servant greets your eighth Highness.” Jing Xin’s action was also not slow. She saluted to the back of that man.
Of course, Qu Tang’er also gently and gracefully curtsied toward the direction of Mo Lian Cheng. She softly said: “Tang’er greets your Highness.”
It seemed as if her recent anger was merely an illusion that people produced.
She quietly stood there, silently waiting for Mo Lian Cheng whose back was facing her.
She appeared to be serene. It seemed like she was very patiently waiting for him to turn around.
“Since you have come, sit down.“ Mo Lian Cheng flatly replied. The back that was facing her still did not turn around. He was maybe waiting for an opportunity.
