Chapter 122 (2/2)

Crackling, two wife slaves were reluctant to take action against their own wife, so they turned to retaliate against each other . Staring at each other in front of this small door, smoke was everywhere .

“Heh, what did they say just now? We should stay in the same room tonight?” Xia Mingyuan thought of the last words the two girls said, and gritted his teeth again .

Feng Tingye raised his eyebrows and sneered: “Could it be that the eldest prince’s mansion is only this big, there are no extra rooms?”

“There are quite a few rooms, but…” Xia Mingyuan moved his gaze to the room where Xia Yuqing and Liu Yixiang went in . There was a room on the other side, but there was only one room adjacent to this room .

Feng Tingye obviously noticed and smiled with his eyes slightly squinted: “Well, don’t mind if I do . ”

“Wait, why?” Xia Mingyuan quickly stepped forward to block Feng Tingye’s path, giving him a murderous glare .

“Your Royal Highness, I am a guest . Is this your way of hospitality?” Feng Tingye’s face sank, it was stained with displeasure .

“Have you never heard of the saying, the guest should comply for the host’s convenience . Since you are here as a guest, you should follow the host’s arrangement . This place… is better left to the host . This prince will arrange another scenic, beautiful and comfortable wing for you . ”

Feng Tingye sneered, a hint of danger appeared on his face: “What if I insist on this room?”

There was a crackling—the two began to glare at each other again . Only this time, the battlefield moved from in front of Xia Yuqing’s room to the room next to Xia Yuqing’s room…

The two of them had only one thought at the moment . They would never share the same room with the person in front of them, but they definitely must take this one room!

Just as the atmosphere between the two was about to drop below zero, when the battle of the glares was turning into a real battle, the old housekeeper who had been following them finally couldn’t help but cough slightly .

“That… Your Royal Highness and also this distinguished guest…”

“Huh?” The two sharp-knife like stare cut towards the old butler . The scared old butler’s hairs pierced up . He immediately broke out into a cold sweat, but still earnestly finished speaking . “Actually, there is a courtyard behind the consort’s bedroom . The two wing rooms in the courtyard are facing the front and rear windows of this bedroom . They are a little smaller than the inner bedroom in the courtyard . But if your Royal Highness and this mister doesn’t mind…”

“What’s wrong with a small room, it’s not like two people will stay in there . This highness will take the left side . ”

Feng Tingye looked at him and sneered: “I want the room to the right . ”

Finished, they glanced at each other, humphed coldly, and walked to the rooms .

“…” The old housekeeper watched the two leave with a sorrowful face . He then silently reached out and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead .

How come superiors these days are becoming more and more like children . Their Highness was fine since he grew up watching him . However, this young man from first glance doesn’t seem to be a benevolent person and being able to talk to his Highness in that manner without being dragged away, he must be a very important character! But what is with his childlike character? It’s just a room, isn’t it? Even if you can’t bear to be separated from your own wife all night, you don’t have to be so reluctant to get the room next door! Sigh, young people nowadays!

In fact, the old butler was really wrong, it really wasn’t just a question of the room .

When night fell completely, in the bedroom of the eldest Prince of Xia, the whole room was as bright as day due to the s.h.i.+ning of the night pearl on the bedside .

At this moment, Xia Yuqing was staring at the night pearl while… uh, drooling .

Such a big night pearl, if it was sold, it will surely be able to sell at a good price . The money in exchange can be used to buy a lot of delicious foods that she has never eaten before . There would be no need to worry about eating too much or eating up all the travelling expenses . Oh, ho ho ho ho… .

Thinking like this, it was as if she could already see numerous roast chickens, pastries, soups circulating in front of her . They were all just constantly waving their little wings at her . Finally, she couldn’t help but giggle scaring Liu Yixiang who was on the bedside preparing to go to bed .

“Qing Jiejie, what are you looking at? Why are you so happy?”

“Nothing, nothing…” Xia Yuqing returned to her senses and hurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth clean . She turned to look at Liu Yixiang .

“Really?” Liu Yixing glanced suspiciously at Xia Yuqing .

Xia Yuqing smiled: “I just saw how pretty your night pearl is…”

“Then?”

“It looks very valuable…”

“…and what else?”

“It must be able to sell for a lot of money…”

“What do you want so much money for?” Liu Yixiang’s mouth twitched . Could it be that Qing Jiejie was planning to flee privately with the money and abandon her royal cousin?

“If you have money, you can buy something to eat!” Xia Yuqing said naturally .

With a “pu”, there was a m.u.f.fled sound from the next door, which frightened Xia Yuqing, “What was that sound?”

Liu Yixiang thought for a moment: “Maybe the fish in the pond turned over . ”

“Fish in the pond? But I clearly heard the sound coming from next door?”

“Uh… the pond is next door, thus the sound of the fish turning over is naturally coming from next door . ”

“Oh…” Xia Yuqing nodded her head as if she understood, but still felt something was wrong, “Wasn’t the pond across from us, why is it next door now?”

“…Uh, I just said the wrong thing, there is a pond on the opposite side of the door . ” Liu Yixiang’s smile stiffened slightly as she hurriedly remedied the situation .

According to Liu Yixiang’s understanding, next door was either her royal cousin or the weak chicken . Most likely, both of them were next door . It’s okay if it’s just the weak chicken, but if it’s her royal cousin…

This time Liu Yixiang really blamed the two wrongly . At the moment, the two people who were living in the opposite corner were listening and also guessing who could be next door .

“Is it your people?” Suddenly hearing a sound transmitted through the air, Xia Mingyuan was startled before realizing that it was an airborne sound transmitted from next door .

“It should be, but it was not this prince’s wish . It should be someone else taking matters into their own hand . ”

As Xia Mingyuan expected, the man next door was indeed from the palace, it was even an old acquaintance . This person has been helping him manage the mansion since Xia Mingyuan went out of the palace to build his own place . It was the former butler of Xia Mingyuan’s mother and the current housekeeper of their mansion .

The old butler supported his twisted old waist and carefully climbed up from the ground . In his heart, he was thinking about the newcomer . So this girl who was dressed in glamorous clothes is actually a poor girl? Even food and clothing are a problem? No wonder she is so thin and small . It is really pitiful . In the future, I have to order the kitchen to make more food for them, at least to allow them to eat their fill in this house .

The old housekeeper at this time didn’t know that it was because of his little compa.s.sion that would cause the food deficit in the entire mansion . Even food and clothing would become a problem!

Of course, this is something that will happen later . At this moment, he continued to pretend to be a gecko sticking to the wall, eavesdropping on the movement inside . His posture was absolutely comparable to a 007 agent .
