Mu Mingtang also laughed and said, Actually, Im doing this to test whether you still somehow have feelings for your old acquaintance, as they say, past relationships can be quite hard to forget.

Old acquaintance, what does she have to do with me?

Then he has nothing to do with me either! Mu Mingtang gave Xie Xuanchen a fierce glare, and she purposely tightened Xie Xuanchens belt with all her might, If you talk nonsense again, Ill strangle you to death, and then remarry with my dowry! Oh and, Ill bring along everything in the manor before I leave.

Xie Xuanchen was the one who said that he would let her remarry. Now that Mu Mingtang threw his words back at him, Xie Xuanchen didnt know how to respond. Seeing that Xie Xuanchen was speechless, Mu Mingtang finally felt that she successfully defended herself for once. She relaxed the strength in her hand and properly tightened his belt: I used to exist for him, but he was the one who pushed me to marry you, my relationship with him is over. Even if we were still connected, it was because of you, we two are now merely relatives only. I made that choice not because of him, but for you. Youre so handsome, with your fair skin and tall height. Of course, I have to take you out to meet them, youll make me look good.

After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, she wrapped her hands around Xie Xuanchens waist: Seriously, your waist is so thin!

Xie Xuanchen was caught off guard against Mu Mingtangs sudden compliment. He was slightly embarrassed, but suddenly, Mu Mingtang hugged him. He was surprised and also found it quite funny: Let go, dont touch me.

The maids outside the room initially already lowered their heads, as they didnt dare to watch their interaction. When they heard laughter coming from inside the room and the faint Dont touch me, their heads dropped even lower, and even more so didnt dare to take a look.

But why is the prince the one saying that?

Mu Mingtang looked at Xie Xuanchens waist and couldnt help but compare her waist with his, the results were even more grief. Mu Mingtang wanted to touch it, but Xie Xuanchen grabbed her away. Mu Mingtang gritted her teeth and whispered, Why dont you have any fat on your waist?

That question was strange, Xie Xuanchens eyes couldnt help but fall on Mu Mingtangs waist which was tied with a silk ribbon. Mu Mingtang would say this, presumably it was because she had some fat on her waist. But she looks slender, if it wasnt tough muscles, how would it feel like to touch them?

Xie Xuanchen wasnt as thick-skinned as Mu Mingtang, he was embarrassed to step forward and touch her, so he could only glance at Mu Mingtang with a stern face: If you have something to say, you can just say it, dont touch around.

This sentence made Mu Mingtang feel like she was a barbarian, this made Mu Mingtang feel embarrassed and she glared at him: When did I ever touch you?

Oh, then was I the one who grabbed your hand and put it on me?

It was such a normal thing, but after what Xie Xuanchen had said, it seemed to be going in a strange direction. Mu Mingtang quickly glanced at the maids outside the door, they were all looking down at the ground, as if they had heard nothing. Mu Mingtang glared at Xie Xuanchen awkwardly, forced him to sit down and lower his head, so that she could place the hair piece on his head.

As Xie Xuanchen was wearing dark blue today, Mu Mingtang picked a silver crown and fixed it on with white jade. After she was done with his hair, Mu Mingtang grabbed the mirror and asked Xie Xuanchen to look at himself. He was also very satisfied: Its nice. You should go out more often with that handsome face of yours. Its a waste to just stay in the room all day.

Xie Xuanchen only briefly glanced at the mirror. On the contrary, he couldnt help but laugh at Mu Mingtangs words. He realised that he laughed quite often with Mu Mingtang around. A few years ago, he felt that everyone he met were all idiots, even when he was the most successful, he never liked to smile.

Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei waited in the outer hall for a long time, Jiang Mingwei had quite a lot of things to do in her own manor, she really didnt want to waste any more of her time here. However, Xie Xuanji coldly refused when she expressed her intention to leave several times.

How impolite, theyre not here yet, how can we just leave first?

But, Princess An has already been in there for a long time. There are many things I have to do in the manor. Theyre waiting for my orders, and I have to meet with Mrs. Zhao in the afternoon. I really dont have time to wait for Princess An here. We just live beside them, how about we tell them that well come back another day?
