Chapter 468: Chapter 468 How Did He Actually Get Up?_1

“What’s the matter?” Wei Ruo asked knowingly.

“Do you really want to see, Ruoruo?” Wei Jinyi countered.

“Why not?” Wei Ruo raised an eyebrow, a smile tugging at her lips.

Just as Wei Ruo thought Wei Jinyi would become even more flushed with embarrassment, Wei Jinyi slowly stood up from the water.

The water flowed from his collarbone, streaming down his chest.

It slipped past his navel, continuing further down.

Wei Ruo abruptly turned her back.

“Obscene!” Wei Ruo cursed.

She had only spoken in jest! Why did he actually emerge from the water!

Fortunately, she turned quickly; otherwise, she would have seen everything!

Even though she hadn’t seen the parts she shouldn’t have, the image still lingered in her mind.

The more she tried not to think about it, the more persistently the visual invaded her thoughts!

Under the guise of a married couple, looking at his body wasn’t the pure, innocent act it once was!

“Ruoruo.”

Wei Jinyi’s voice rang out behind her, causing Wei Ruo to shiver.

She felt Wei Jinyi’s presence close behind her, possibly about to press close.

“Don’t you dare come any closer!”

Wei Jinyi paused, explaining, “I’ve already put on my clothes.”

Wei Ruo turned around to see Wei Jinyi fully dressed in white robes as pure as snow.

“I’m ready now, if you want to bathe…”

Wei Ruo interrupted him before he could finish, “I’m not bathing!”

With that, Wei Ruo turned and fled.

Wei Jinyi watched Wei Ruo leave, then turned to see the clothes she had brought, strewn across the floor.

Among them was a peculiarly shaped garment with two half-circles and very little fabric. He wondered what it was used for.

The thought of it being Wei Ruo’s undergarments made Wei Jinyi blush uncontrollably.

Only after darting out of the bathing pool did Wei Ruo realise she had forgotten her own clothes.

It would be awkward to turn back to fetch them now, so she decided to temporarily abandon them.

Wei Ruo returned to Songzhu Garden in a huff. Seeing her return so hurriedly, Lin Fang and Xiumei exchanged puzzled glances.

Lin Fang asked, “Why did you return so soon, Mistress? Didn’t you want to stay in the water a bit longer?”

“Your Prince is in the pool right now!”

“The Prince… he’s there…?” Lin Fang’s eyes widened in surprise.

Her master seldom visited that pool. How coincidental it was to encounter him today.

Plus, when the young lady asked her earlier, the Prince had been busy discussing serious matters with Zhang Yi.

Lin Fang looked at Wei Ruo, speculating about what might have happened in the bathing pool.

Could it be…

Concerned, Xiumei asked, “Did anything happen, Mistress? Did the Prince take advantage of you?”

Xiumei clenched her fists, prepared to confront Wei Jinyi.

“If you’re talking about advantage, I guess I took advantage of him,” Wei Ruo murmured.
