After finishing her dinner, Sang Jiang stretched and slowly stood up.
She had slept all afternoon and was no longer sleepy. She blinked her eyes and looked around listlessly.
When she saw the small table in the yard, she suddenly seemed to remember something and jumped up: "Chunhe, Kou'er, let's play cards?"
Chunhe: "Playing Dou Dizhu?"
Kou'er: "I refuse!"
The two of them spoke at the same time.
Kou'er glanced at Chunhe and quickly changed the subject: "Miss, why don't you tell us the storybook again? We haven't finished listening to that one you told us last time, the one about waiting for a thousand years. You can't leave it unfinished!"
Chunhe's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing that a storybook would be brought: "Princess~"
Sang Jiang: ...
Aren't these people virtual characters? Why is language evolving so fast? The words she just said are already being used by others.
She glanced at their hopeful eyes and slowly nodded: "Alright."
The two of them were so happy they almost jumped for joy.
The two then looked at each other.
Sang Jiang saw the two of them walk out together. Just as she was completely bewildered, the two of them came back in, each carrying a tray, and then thoughtfully closed the door for her.
Sang Jiang was too far away at first to see what was on the tray, but when the two got closer, she saw that it contained peanuts and melon seeds.
Sang Jiang: ...
At first, she thought they were snacks prepared for her.
Seeing the expectant looks in their eyes, she pouted and slowly began to speak: "Last time we talked about how Xu Xian stole government silver to get closer to Bai Suzhen, right..."
When Long Jingchen returned after sending Long Jingyu away, he saw Sang Jiang talking to her two maids.
The little maid was eating melon seeds while looking intently at Sang Jiang, not even noticing him push the door open and come in.
He couldn't help but move closer to listen, and when he heard what she was saying, his face immediately darkened.
This refers to the book he saw that day, "My Husband Is Not Human".
He looked at the three of them, master and servants, and coughed lightly twice.
Chunhe and Kou'er were so frightened by his voice that they almost fell off their chairs.
Chunhe hurriedly hid the peanuts and melon seeds in her hand behind her back, and Kou'er glanced at her and directly stuffed them into Sang Jiang's hand.
Sang Jiang: ...
The two women gave a slight curtsy: "This servant greets Your Majesty and pays respects to Your Majesty."
Long Jingchen nodded slightly in agreement.
Sang Jiang put the melon seeds she was holding on the low table, sat up from the soft couch, and looked at Long Jingchen: "Wasn't Your Majesty discussing state affairs with the Eighth Prince? Why are you back so early?"
Long Jingchen: ...
He glanced outside; it was already completely dark. Did she still think it was early?
Sang Jiang followed his gaze and glanced towards the door. She coughed awkwardly twice and said, "Since it's getting late, Your Majesty should go back and rest early."
Long Jingchen: ...
He looked at Sang Jiang and his face darkened slightly. Other women would rush to curry favor with him, so why was it different with her?
But isn't it just that he likes her because she's different?
He glanced at Chunhe and Kou'er, and the two instantly understood her meaning, lowering their heads as they walked out.
Seeing that the two were about to walk out, Sang Jiang quickly shouted, "Stop! Who said you could leave?"
Chunhe, Kou'er: ...
So what should they do?
The two of them turned around and looked at the two of them together...
