"Then peel it off yourself."
"My punishment for you is for you to take off this fake face yourself!" Ye Jingchen said angrily.
Treat them as they treat you!
Since Chenxi wants to expose his face, then he will expose Chenxi's face in return.
His face is real, but Chenxi's face is fake!
He had been thinking about how to find an opportunity to remove Chenxi's fake face.
Now the opportunity has been presented to him!
"Since you dare to doubt your master, you should be punished accordingly. Now I will punish you by removing your false face!" Ye Jingchen urged.
Looking at this old face every day makes me lose my appetite.
"I choose to be punished, double the punishment." Chenxi said, about to perform the disappearing act.
"Wait!" Ye Jingchen shouted.
"I want to see your face. If you don't let me, I'll throw a tantrum and make sure the whole East Palace is in turmoil!" Ye Jingchen threatened fiercely.
Dawn: ...
Chenxi really wanted to say that even if you caused chaos in the entire East Palace, what did it have to do with him?
But ultimately, it was he who suspected the little rascal first.
“Then you can’t laugh,” he said coldly.
"I won't laugh!" Ye Jingchen said, raising his hand in assurance.
He couldn't help but laugh last time, but Chenxi turned around and put on a mask, which she refused to take off. How could he dare to laugh in front of Chenxi now?
Chenxi took out a medicine bottle from her bosom, poured out some medicine, applied it to both sides of her ears, and massaged it for a while. Gaps appeared in the skin that had been tightly sealed.
He slowly peeled off his face through the gap, revealing his fair, smooth, baby-fat face.
After removing the fake skin, he stared intently at Ye Jingchen, making up his mind that if Ye Jingchen dared to mock him again, he would never show his true face to him again.
Ye Jingchen didn't know what he was thinking, but he had promised Chenxi he wouldn't laugh, so he pursed his lips tightly and widened his eyes, afraid of revealing even a hint of a smile.
But the little devil in his heart was already laughing so hard he was rolling on the ground.
Her chubby face is so cute!
It would be nice to be able to squeeze it.
In his previous life, Ye Jingchen had always admired a game producer who had a chubby face. Every time Ye Jingchen saw him on screen, he felt an itch to pinch his cheeks.
Of course, he had no other intentions; he simply wanted to pinch her cheek.
"What's with that expression?" Chenxi glared at Ye Jingchen with displeasure.
With that glare, her face puffed out even more, making her look even cuter.
Ye Jingchen turned his face away, not daring to look anymore. He was afraid he would burst out laughing, or that his eyes would reveal his true nature.
"Okay, okay, I wasn't laughing. You shouldn't wear a mask anymore. Look at your face, it's so smothered it's a different color from your neck," Ye Jingchen said, barely suppressing a laugh.
Chenxi remained silent.
Fangfei's voice came from outside the bathroom, "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince has arrived."
Mentioning Ye Jinghe, Ye Jingchen suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten to bring Ye Jinghe a gift!
He had already planned what to bring Ye Jinghe. Ye Jinghe loved sweets and would definitely not be able to resist the sweet and sour candied hawthorn and the mellow and sweet maltose.
Unfortunately, after leaving Zuixianlou, he was worried about assassination attempts and didn't dare to linger on the street, so he didn't have the chance to buy candy for Ye Jinghe.
Later, when he went to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, he forgot about it.
Ye Jingchen had been soaking in the bath for quite a while. He looked at the spot where Chenxi had been standing, but she was gone.
He got up, dried himself off, put on his undergarments, and as soon as he stepped out of the bathroom, he saw Ye Jinghe waiting anxiously at the bathroom door.
Upon seeing Ye Jingchen, he ran towards him without saying a word and clung to him tightly.
"Jinghe, I'm sorry, there was a little accident when I left the palace this time, and I couldn't bring you a gift." Ye Jingchen picked him up and sincerely apologized to him.
"The best gift is that my brother is back safe and sound!" Ye Jinghe said in a low voice, hugging Ye Jingchen's neck tightly.
No one would tell a child about the danger Ye Jingchen might encounter. It was Ye Jingchen himself who sensed that something was wrong in the Eastern Palace, and then the Emperor suddenly arrived uninvited with a sour face, and Fangfei and the others knelt before the Emperor to beg for forgiveness.
He eavesdropped outside the main hall and learned that his brother had been assassinated during his trip out of the palace.
He was terrified and wanted to save his brother, but he knew that with his thin arms and legs, even if he put on a show of madness for the assassin, it wouldn't change anything. All he could do was pray in his heart, hoping that his brother would return safely.
Later, Fangrui discovered that he was eavesdropping, forcibly carried him back to his bedroom, and told him not to run around at this time, otherwise he would only cause trouble for his brother.
He obediently stayed in the bedchamber, waiting and waiting, until he heard someone say that his brother had returned.
He wanted to see his brother, but the emperor was still alive. Where the emperor was, everyone else had to step aside, so he could only continue to wait.
After the emperor finally left, my brother went to take a bath again.
My brother has many strange rules. For example, he doesn't like anyone to stay in the room when he sleeps, and he can only be in the bathtub when he takes a bath, and no one is allowed to get close.
Ye Jingchen waited obediently at the entrance of the bathtub, eagerly waiting. But then he heard faint voices coming from inside the bathroom.
Doesn't my brother not allow anyone to get close when he's taking a bath?
Who is the older brother talking to?
Ye Jinghe looked at Fangfei and the others, but their expressions remained unchanged, as if they hadn't heard anything.
Was he hallucinating?
