Chapter 78: Taking the bait
Zhenhe felt dizzy after reading the barrage of comments, and she shook her head.
"Feeling uncomfortable?" Shangguan Ce asked immediately.
"I got up too early." Jianhe smiled. This time, he was like a thief in the house.
Wang Ran and Shangguan Nayun sneered. Up too early? As expected of these unruly girls, they would have already put on their makeup and prepared to go to the palace to pay their respects by this time.
"After you finish eating, go back to your room and rest. Your aunt and sister are going to the palace. A new batch of goods has arrived today, and I need to go check it out."
Zhenhe stood up, and the other five beastmen also stood up.
The Shangguan family's house is very big, and everyone has their own floor.
Zhenhe is second only to Shangguan Ce on the 8th floor on the 7th floor. Below her are Wang Ran, Shangguan Nayun and Shangguan Anlu.
"Miss~" The servant opened the door, and the golden light made Qianhe unable to open her eyes.
The bed frame, window frames, and ornaments were made of pure gold, there were all kinds of gems, dresses, and shoes, the cups were made of crystal, and the carpet was the skin of a polar bear.
So luxurious and beautiful!
When the servant saw Zhenhe's surprised face, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.
A cold gaze swept over, and the servant's breath was taken in when he met Gu Zengxing's clear blue eyes, and he quickly lowered his head.
"Miss, we're in the hallway, just call us if you need anything."
As for the others...
"Mr. Song, Mr. Jiang, Mr. Pei, Mr. Qi, Mr. Gu, your rooms are right across from the young lady. There are exactly five rooms."
"Thank you." Gu Zengxing took the key from the servant.
The servant shuddered, "Then I'll go down first."
"What do you mean?" Qi Yue walked to the plush sofa beside him and sat down. Gu Zengxing stood behind the door, and Pei Siyi walked to the window.
Jiang Yan originally wanted to lie on the bed, but when he saw Qianhe's warning look, he had to sit on the sofa like Qi Yue.
Song Qianye began to check the furnishings in the room. It was the same as before, but with many more little gadgets.
For example, this vase, this mirror and this wardrobe.
"I live across the street." Jiang Yan was the first to choose a room, with Qi Yue and Gu Zengxing on his left and right.
Song Qianye and Pei Siyi were at the head and the tail respectively, while Ashe and Qi Yue lived together.
Jianhe started pecking at rice like a chick, and Jiang Yan motioned everyone to look at her.
Seeing that the female was drowsy, everyone started to find their own places. Instead of returning to the room, they all stayed by her side.
"What are you doing?" Zhenhe heard the noise and opened his eyes tiredly.
Jiang Yan smiled: "Sleeping with you"
Zhen He was startled awake instantly, "Sleep together?"
Jiang Yan knew she was thinking the wrong thing as soon as he saw her expression. "What are you thinking about, you little brat?"
The others blushed, and Ashe kept looking at the scenery outside by the window.
“It seems someone is back.”
Hearing his words, Jianhe immediately walked over. It was Shangguan Anlu, followed by Mu Yuan.
Jianhe held her forehead with her hands, thinking of this lingering man.
"Have you all found your way home?" Jiang Yan nodded his head with his index finger, his dark eyes looking at Jianhe leisurely.
Zhen He was helpless: "Maybe they are not here to see me?"
The slap in the face came quickly. When Shangguan Anlu saw a room full of males, his eyes widened.
"Shangguan Zhenhe, do you still have any shame?" So many people?!
"What are you thinking about?!" Zhenhe covered his mouth in hatred.
Just saying embarrassing things.
"Can I have a moment to talk?" Mu Yuan extended his hand and invited politely.
Zhenhe felt that he was in an awkward position again, as the five men and Ashe were all looking at him.
"About Shanshan," Mu Yuan said frankly.
"OK"
The two chose an open place. The morning sun had just risen above the ground, and the servants in the garden and on the lawn had already started working.
"Shanshan wants to see you, and His Majesty also wants to see you. I hope you won't provoke Shanshan."
We haven't even met yet, and you're already protecting me, Jianhe curled her lips.
"Did you hear what I said?" Mu Yuan frowned.
“I’m not deaf.”
"Since you're not deaf, then listen carefully. Shanshan is very kind, so don't bully her."
"Me? Bully her? I'm a commoner, bullying a princess?" Are you kidding me?
"Because she is a princess, she needs to care for every citizen of Linan, including you."
Zhenhe felt very strange, "So?"
"I hope you respect and love her. Otherwise, even if His Majesty forgives you for the sake of the Shangguan family, I will not forgive you."
"As long as she respects me, I will naturally respect and love her. This is your responsibility, right?" Zhenhe looked at Muyuan with some disgust.
This glance almost made Mu Yuan go crazy, "playing the lute to a cow"
"Can you play the piano?"
"I can!"
Mu Yuan left, and just as Qian He was about to go back to the house, Shangguan Anlu stopped him and asked, "What did Brother Mu Yuan say to you?"
"Let me take care of your sister Shanshan"
Shangguan Anlu's pupils suddenly constricted, and his cheeks flushed. "What do you mean by 'my sister Shanshan'? Shangguan Qianhe, please don't slander me and my sister Shanshan. My sister Shanshan and I are...but..."
Zhenhe looked at him speechlessly. Can’t say anything?
"Brother Muyuan!"
Shangguan Nayun came back after greeting Mu Yuan and saw him. She wanted to rush over to him. Mu Yuan nodded and said, "Did you go see Shanshan?"
"Yeah! I wanted to talk to her, but she had other things to do, so I came back first."
Shangguan Nayun looked at Mu Yuan: "Brother Mu Yuan, have you had breakfast? If not, can we eat together?"
Hearing Shangguan Nayun's words, the two servants following her looked at each other.
Mu Yuan shook his head: "No need, I've already eaten. Keep an eye on Shangguan Jianhe and don't let her do anything out of line."
Shangguan Nayun froze for a moment, then asked softly, "Have you seen her?"
"Well, I just said a few words. I have something urgent to do and I'll leave first."
The man walked past hurriedly, and the fresh fragrance lingered on his nose.
Shangguan Nayun looked sinisterly at the floor where Jianhe was. "You, Shangguan Jianhe, seduce Brother Muyuan as soon as you come back. I want to see what you can do."
When Jianhe returned to the room, Pei Siyi had already started reading, Jiang Yan was lying on the carpet with his eyes closed, and Song Qianye was leaning against the window.
Qi Yue and Ashe were looking through the map. Gu Zengxing lowered his head and then stood up. "I'm going back to my room first."
Everyone looked at him immediately.
"Someone has to go to his room and take a look."
That’s right.
After coming out of Zhenhe's room, Gu Zengxing first walked around his room, then pushed open the balcony door.
Hearing the noise, Shangguan Nayun, who was drinking tea in the garden, immediately looked up.
It's him!
The woman's eyes flickered slightly, and she gave a polite smile.
Gu Zengxing also nodded in response.
In fact, Shangguan Nayun usually drinks tea not here, but in the pavilion in the center of the garden, but here she can be seen by Zhenhe's beastly husbands.
Shangguan Nayun was very confident that she was much prettier than Shangguan Zhenhe and that it would only take a few minutes to win over these beastly men.
Look, one of them has taken the bait, and he's a noble from the Far East.
"Would you like some tea?" Shangguan Nayun raised her cup.
Gu Zengxing shook his head.
Shangguan Jianhe must be watching closely. Shangguan Nayun lowered her eyes. She would wait until she was not around and then attack them one by one...
Gu Zengxing and Shangguan Nayun were both very satisfied as they regarded each other as their prey.
