Instantly.
Zhu Wencai's face showed a hint of fear.
Zhu Yue was shocked by Zhu Wencai's words, "How could the Crown Prince of Xiyue Kingdom be in the capital?"
Zhu Wencai glanced at Zhu Yue and explained in a somewhat impatient tone, "The Crown Prince of Xiyue Kingdom was in the capital before the New Year. He is His Majesty's own nephew."
Zhu Yue's eyes darkened. No wonder, that young master gave off an aura of dominance and noble, extraordinary temperament.
"So, you've really offended someone you shouldn't have."
Zhu Wencai felt a pang of guilt. Suddenly remembering something, he looked up at Zhu Yue and asked urgently, "How do you know them? And do they know who you are?"
Zhu Yue turned and walked to the side, replying in a detached tone, "It was just a chance encounter."
So they don't know who you are?
Zhu Yue understood the implication in his words; he seemed quite concerned that they knew her identity. She turned her gaze to him and asked, "What do you mean?"
“He is the Crown Prince of Xiyue Kingdom, so the woman you brought back must be the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Jingbian, Princess Mu Chenshuang of Weiyang County. I have heard that the two of them have a close relationship, and sure enough, it seems that the two of them are indeed meeting in secret.”
As Zhu Wencai spoke, he looked up at her and said, "You probably don't know this, but Mu Chenshuang has made Father stumble time and time again. You know, no one dares to oppose Father to his face, but Mu Chenshuang is the first person to do so. Do you think Father doesn't hold a grudge?"
Zhu Yue listened, her eyes wide with disbelief, and a hint of panic appeared on her face, but she quickly calmed down.
“This is my father’s business, and I have no right to interfere. It has nothing to do with me. Miss Shen and I are just strangers who met by chance.” Zhu Yue said, staring intently at Zhu Wencai. “Since you know that they are people you can’t afford to offend, and Miss Shen will no longer pursue the matter, I advise you to leave immediately.”
After saying this, Zhu Yue turned and strode away.
Zhu Yue returned to the courtyard and walked to the door. She heard Xiao Jing's laughter coming from inside the house. She stopped, took a deep breath, composed herself, and walked into the house.
As Xiao Jing entered, she called out in a childish voice, "Mother."
Zhu Yue stepped forward, looked at Mu Chenshuang, and said politely with a smile, "I'm sorry to bother you, Miss Chen."
“Madam, there’s no need to say such things. I like Xiao Jing very much, and I’m happy to be with her.”
Although Xiao Jing asked some inexplicable questions that she couldn't answer, who could resist the innocence of a child?
At that moment, Xiao Jing suddenly yawned.
"It seems Xiao Jing is sleepy, so I won't disturb her any longer."
Zhu Yue nodded and said, "Miss Chen, please rest early. If you need anything, please let the servants know."
"kindness."
Zhu Yue asked Xiao Jing and Mu Chen Shuang to say goodbye.
Goodnight, fairy sister.
Mu Chenshuang reached out and stroked Xiao Jing's head, smiling gently, "Goodnight."
Mu Chenshuang got up to leave, and Zhu Yue suddenly called out, "Miss Chen."
Mu Chenshuang stopped and turned around. Zhu Yue stepped forward and apologized, "I am really sorry for what happened today, Miss Chen. I have already reprimanded him."
"It's alright, I didn't take it to heart, Madam, you don't need to apologize to me anymore."
"Thank you, Miss Chen."
After Mu Chenshuang followed the servants to the guest room, she left.
Mu Chenshuang entered the room and immediately saw the man leaning against the edge of the bed, one leg bent, his collar slightly open, his silver hair hanging down like silk. His lazy and unrestrained posture exuded a bewitching charm, which was simply blatant seduction.
Mu Chenshuang frowned. "What are you doing here?"
Fu Junheng glanced at her sideways, his eyes filled with an extremely wicked and teasing look, "Of course, I'll wait for Shuang'er to come back before I go to sleep."
The words were spoken.
Mu Chenshuang turned around without showing any mercy.
However, before she could even reach the door, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her and, before she could react, was swept up in his arms.
"Fu Junheng, what are you doing? Let me go."
Fu Junheng held the woman in his arms tightly and walked straight to the bed, a seductive smile playing on his lips. "What else can we do but rest?"
Ignoring the woman's glare, Fu Junheng placed her on the bed, then sat on the edge of the bed and gently removed her shoes and socks, revealing a pair of fair, jade-like feet. He reached out and held her feet, feeling a cool sensation.
"My feet are so cold."
Mu Chenshuang sat up abruptly, feeling the warmth of the man's palms clearly on her soles. It was as if an electric current traveled along the nerves in her soles and struck her heart, causing a ripple of emotion.
