84 Tricking Her (1/2)

All her troubles seemed to have flown away with the wind when she saw him. He was standing under the moon by her door. Even with his back faced to her, he still looked charming to her. What was strange was that he was still in his traveling robe. Yu Mei couldn't help but smile when she thought about it. Did he really come to see her first thing upon arriving? But why did he look shorter and skinnier than she remembered. She hasn't seen him in a couple of days and she had forgotten how he looked like. But she didn't put much thought into it. She was much more interested in surprising him. With light steps, she snuck up and hugged him. Her hands locked tightly in the front. ”Your highness, you're back.” She cheerfully said.

No reply.

An ominous feeling surrounded her. Yu Mei scrunched her nose. [Breast?] Her hand went to gently squeeze the chest. They were definitely a pair of breast.

”PAN YU MEI! You dare cheat on me?” A sudden shout from the opposite side of the hall made her jump. Pan Yu Mei turned her head. If Pei Nan was there, who was in front of her? She quickly let go of the person. The impersonator quickly hid their face with their sleeves. Yu Mei tried to find out who it was but stopped when she was being interrogated once more.

The impersonator had run off.

”Answer me! You are cheating on your husband while he is gone?” he took heavy strides over to her.

”I didn't. I thought it was you.” She answered. It's not like she did it on purpose.

Pei Nan with a fierce burning gaze stopped in front of her. ”Tell me what punishment you deserve for cheating on me?”

”The death penalty but…I really didn't know.” She kept on explaining to him. But he was not listening.

”Wrong.” He closed the distance between them.

”Then what?” she asked frustrated. How could he wrongly accuse her?

Pei Nan leaned forward. His lips nearly touching her ear.

”Your punishment is to accompany me in a bath.” he evilly smiled.

Yu Mei blinked a few times confused. She only understood the situation when the impersonator came back. Chu'mei!

Yu Mei pushed Pei Nan away. ”You tricked me.” She stomped her feet and ran into her room embarrassed. Chu'mei felt bad as she picked at the sleeve fabric. It wasn't her fault. Pei Nan forced her to impersonate him. Plus she thought it was quite interesting. Chu'mei thought her lady would get a kick out of it but she suddenly got mad. She wanted to go apologize but knew better than to follow her lady and Prince Nan back in the room.

Yu Mei didn't get far before Pei Nan caught up to her. He locked her in his embrace. Her back was tightly pressed onto his chest. The intimacy between the two would make anyone turn away from shyness.

Pei Nan placed his chin snuggly on her shoulder. ”Are you mad at me? Don't you think you are being a little unfair?” he asked teasingly.
