Chapter 123: Too Handsome
The princess stared at her for a long moment, then sighed helplessly, "Time reveals a person's true character. I finally understand why that girl An Ning insisted on having you with her."
The meaning of these words is to advise her not to act too hastily.
Perhaps she should be more tolerant of An Ning like Liang Weiyuan and take her thoughts into consideration.
Having said that, I think there will be a scolding at the Princess's Mansion soon.
Liang Weiyuan didn't stay long. Soon she stood up and said goodbye. An Ning reluctantly sent her to the carriage and returned to the Marquis' Mansion.
"How do you look today?"
As soon as I stepped into the house, I heard the man's slow and inquiring voice as usual.
Huo Jin saw the bony hands closing the scroll.
When he looked up, his eyes were somehow dark.
"I heard that many young talents came to the Princess's residence?"
Liang Weiyuan approached the bed and took off the white gauze shawl that was cooled by the night breeze. Hearing this, she couldn't help but laugh, "Talent? It's just an empty title."
In An Ning's words, they are indeed a bunch of mismatched things.
She stuffed the gilded hand warmer into Huo Jin's slightly cool palm, and saw that his brows relaxed slightly as if he felt warm, and then she recounted what happened today.
Huo Jin saw the suppressed unhappiness in his heart fade away unconsciously.
He held the heater tightly as he listened, a hint of a smile flashing across his dark eyes: "In that case, I'm sorry, Princess."
As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't stop coughing and covered his lips with a handkerchief, his knuckles turning white from the exertion.
"The princess wasn't wronged at all. It was just that the eldest princess, provoked by a few words from me, took out all her anger on Zong Zhengqing."
Liang Weiyuan waited for him to stop coughing, then frowned and urged him to come over, "But you, go to bed and have a rest."
Seeing her concerned eyes, Huo Jin said "hmm" softly and did as she asked without looking away.
But he couldn't stop the tips of his ears from burning hot under his hair.
Liang Weiyuan skillfully raised her hand and touched his calf, pressing it gently while smiling and continuing to sigh.
"However, when I think about it later, even the princess looks at me like that, so maybe it's not Zong Zhengqing's fault. Maybe the young masters of aristocratic families are really mixed nowadays."
Huo Jin pursed his lips and asked, "If I were to let you see one, what kind would you like?"
This question stumped her.
"If I were to..." Liang Weiyuan recalled those tall, short, fat and thin people and choked, "Of course, at least they have to be presentable."
"Can you see it?"
What kind of answer is that?
Huo Jin raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the question, "What do you mean by acceptable?"
She had never thought about love in this life, but at this moment, looking at the man's pale and cold face, and seeing herself reflected in his dark eyes, her heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.
Huo Jin seemed to sense something. He raised his hand and gently brushed his high nose bridge with his fingertips, then slid across his thin lips, his movements carrying a subtle hint of tentativeness.
"Then look at me?"
He paused, his voice lowered a bit, "Can I be considered worthy of your attention?"
Seeing him asking with a serious face, Liang Weiyuan couldn't help laughing out loud, and the teardrop mole at the corner of her eye was so soft that it seemed to have melted into the spring water.
"When did my husband learn to joke?" Liang Weiyuan said as she pinched his angular face, feeling the coolness. "He's so handsome, do you need to ask others? I'm afraid he can charm a lot of girls even when he's sick."
Huo Jin raised his eyebrows when she pinched him, and his long black hair fell down to cover his red ears, "Really?"
He grabbed her rebellious hand, caressed it carelessly with his palm and then let go, a satisfied smile in his eyes.
"If what Madam says is true, then when I am well again, put on my armor and stand in the martial arts arena, won't all the women in the city gather to watch me?"
