I didn't eat dinner...
I didn't eat dinner...
Having dinner...
Meng Qingrou was bewildered.
I kindly asked him to finish his medicine before leaving, but he said he hadn't eaten dinner. It's true he shouldn't take medicine if he hasn't eaten dinner, but now… I wanted him to leave quickly, but am I supposed to keep him there to eat dinner…? The problem is, it's well past dinnertime now, and if he wants to eat, I'll have to cook something else…
Are we still going or not?
Meng Qingrou walked up to He Yunxiao with the medicine in her hands, and handed it to him.
"Take it."
"oh."
He Yunxiao took the warm antidote and looked at his wife Nanzhu's stunning face so close to his eyes, and could even smell the fragrant medicinal herbs on her body.
Meng Qingrou said irritably, "I'll go get some snacks. You eat the snacks first, then take your medicine. Leave after you take your medicine."
He Yunxiao quickly agreed, "Okay, okay."
Meng Qingrou was furious at He Yunxiao's timid and submissive demeanor. He was incredibly clever when he lied to me, spouting sweet nothings, but now he's like a complete idiot.
So she retorted angrily, "Is 'oh' all you can say?"
He Yunxiao immediately said, "Thank you, Miss Nanzhu!"
Meng Qingrou got even angrier and said, "Hmph! Finish your medicine and leave! I don't want to see you at all!"
Seeing that Nan Zhu's wife was angry, He Yunxiao didn't dare to say anything more, only saying, "Fine."
Meng Qingrou was furious on the spot, "You!"
He Yunxiao didn't understand why Nan Zhu's wife was even angrier; he had clearly done as she instructed. Could it be...?
Could it be... that Namjoo's wife is a little tsundere?
He Yunxiao recalled the first time he came to Linxuan Palace, when his wife, Nanzhu, brewed medicine for him for the first time.
Nanzhu's wife initially kept him in suspense, saying she only had a 50% chance of curing the poison. Then, when he thought her chances of curing the poison were too small and he didn't want to do it, Nanzhu's wife, who had initially wanted to keep him in suspense, immediately explained that she had an 80% chance of curing the poison.
Later, when they went to the pharmacy to prepare the medicine, they were taken aback by the size of the pharmacy. Nam-joo's wife first modestly said, "I'm just doing it casually," and then after a slight threat from Nam-joo's wife, she immediately changed her tune and said, "I'm doing it very seriously."
After thinking it over, He Yunxiao understood.
Nanzhu's wife is indeed a bit arrogant, and she's the "soft and timid" type of arrogance.
Arrogant, but only a little bit.
It's kind of cute.
Meng Qingrou looked at He Yunxiao, who had been as wooden as ever, and saw that he actually smiled after she finished speaking. She asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"
He Yunxiao realized that his wife, Nan Zhu, didn't actually hate or resent him. She was just a bit arrogant, and once she appeared tough, her behavior became much more normal. While she still respected him, she wasn't timid or hesitant.
He Yunxiao ignored everything else and spoke the truth directly: "I wasn't laughing at anything, I just felt happy when I saw you and thought of you."
Meng Qingrou's favorability rating has increased from 25 to 28.
Upon hearing He Yunxiao's words, Meng Qingrou immediately turned around and faced away from him.
"Nonsense!" Then he said, "I'll go get you some snacks. After you finish eating and take your medicine, hurry up and leave."
Holding the medicine, He Yunxiao called out to Nanzhu's wife's retreating figure, "Nanzhu, I'm not lying, I mean it!"
Meng Qingrou's favorability rating has increased from 28 to 30.
Her steps gradually came to a stop, and she did not look back.
I don't believe it.
After saying that, he continued walking back inside to get some snacks.
He Yunxiao looked at the rising favorability rating and thought about what his wife, Nanzhu, had said.
Although the favorability rating indicated that she believed him, the words "I don't believe him" still pierced He Yunxiao's heart like needles.
He chuckled bitterly and murmured, "So this is how Nan Zhu felt when she found out I wasn't 'Xiao Yun'? No, she must have felt much, much worse back then than I do now."
He Yunxiao took a deep breath, further strengthening his resolve to become stronger.
What has happened in the past cannot be changed, but there is still hope for the future.
Become stronger, make money, win back Nanzhu, and then make it up to her!
Not far away, a row of heads were pressed against the wall. The palace maids of Linxuan Palace looked at He Yunxiao and Meng Qingrou not far away and whispered among themselves.
"Sister Xing'er, shouldn't we leave after taking our medicine?"
"Won't you sit for a while longer?"
"If it were me, I would definitely ask Young Master He to stay a while longer."
"Young Master He is in love with His Highness. What are you dreaming about?"
Xing'er thought for a moment and said, "We have to create an opportunity for them! We can't let Young Master He leave so soon. Otherwise, if he takes his medicine and leaves every day, how long will it take for them to reconcile?"
Everyone shouted in unison, "Good!"
Someone asked, "Sister Xing'er, what exactly should we do?"
While Xing'er was pondering, He Yunxiao, under the gaze of the palace maids, turned around and bowed to them from afar to express his gratitude. No words were spoken, but the meaning was clear to everyone.
He thanked them for considering his and Nanzhu's feelings.
"Ah? Young Master He heard you?"
"It is said that Young Master He is a martial artist, and martial artists naturally have excellent hearing."
"However, Young Master He truly possesses the demeanor of a gentleman. Should we show ourselves and return the courtesy?"
"Quick, hide! His Highness is coming out!"
...
Meng Qingrou went back to her bedroom to get some snacks. She quickly brought out a box of snacks that He Yunxiao had bought for her to eat.
After coming out, she slowly walked up to He Yunxiao and handed him the snack box.
"Eat a little, then drink your medicine, and then hurry up and go."
He Yunxiao watched as Meng Qingrou turned her face away, not daring to look at him. There were also the pastries she had just bought for him that she handed him.
