Chapter 69

Mu Yunjin in response, gave Shen momo a resentful glare, and then reached out her hand to cover her face and facing Chu Li she gave a fake laugh.


"Good child, don't be noisy!"


With Mu Yunjin's bold act, Shen momo and Ding Xian at the side together with the other people are somewhat surprised, even Chu Li's eyes flashed a surprised look.


The evening meal pa.s.sed harmoniously.


……..


That night, Mu Yunjin laid down on her soft couch in her room, and is suddenly reminded of Zi Xiang's words about the Wen family.


She can't help but have myriad of thoughts.


In the past, the owner of this body having lived to this age is perhaps because she had been forbidden to step out of the Ascending Flower Pavilion and resigned herself to adversity and did not become prominent enough to warrant being pointed by a sharp spear.


And ever since replacing the soul of the Third Miss who had been strangled, all the intrigues and tricks had never stopped.


Could it be that all that happened is because she is too ostentatious?


If that is so, it seems that she has to moderate her temper well.


Otherwise, she might end up making too many enemies than she could deal with.


……….


The next day, it is the day of Chu Li's birthday.


Mu Yunjin slept so late last night, Zi Xiang woke her up early in the morning, sitting at the dressing table, she kept yawning.


"Xiaojie, this morning, n.o.bles and ministers came to the Fu to give gifts. They were all refused by Shen momo."


Zi Xiang, who is helping Mu Yunjin wear her hair into a bun, suddenly spoke.


Mu Yunjin made a sound of agreement.


"Chu Li this person, never gives people opportunities, these ministers wants to fawn on him, I am afraid it is futile."


Zi Xiang gave a light smile.


After the dressing up, Mu Yunjin is ready to go out, Zi Xiang saw Mu Yunjin is empty handed, and then opened her mouth to ask in a hurry.


"Xiaojie, where's your gift? This servant will help you hold it."


"Gift?"


Mu Yunjin raised an eyebrow.


"Go to the dining hall to see."


"It's so mysterious."


Zi Xiang covered her mouth to smile.


"It seems that xiaojie really spent a lot of time on it."


As soon as they stepped into the Front Hall, they heard the voice of Shen momo's monologue.


"It is really annoying. These ministers were already told that during His Highness' birthday, they do not need to send gifts, but not only did they not listen and still sent them. I also had refused to accept them but they still left the gifts on the steps outside the Fu and did not take them away. It's unsightly to leave it outside, and I still have to move it in."


Shen momo took several boxes from outside and put them on the table. Then she wiped her sweat and stretched her arms to support her waist.


When she saw Mu Yunjin walked in, Shen Momo pointed to the gifts.


"Huang zi Fei, what do you propose to do about these? His Highness never accepts these in the past."


"Throw it out, Chu Li doesn't want it, those ministers doesn't want it, someone will want it."


Mu Yunjin faintly smiled.


"This…"


Shen momo is speechless.


Mu Yunjin came to the dining hall, and saw that the table was already full of breakfast. She took a seat and picked up a red bean cake.


"Chu Li?"


"His Highness entered the palace early in the morning."


Shen Momo replied.


Mu Yunjin nodded and no longer said anything. She ate breakfast at her own expense.


……….


It was until after dusk that Chu Li came back from outside.


"Welcome back, welcome back."


Shen momo who was antic.i.p.ating the day and saw Chu Li coming back and immediately greeted him.


Mu Yunjin who was dragged by Shen momo, is sitting in the Front Hall and waiting for Chu Li. The moment Chu Li came back, she only slightly sighed, got up and rubbed her sore waists.


"Why did your highness come back so late today?"


After waiting for Chu Li to sit down, Shen momo helped Chu Li to pour a cup of tea.


Chu Li sipped a mouthful of tea, and indifferently replied.


"Discussing things with Fu Huang, it took some time."


"So it was like that."


Shen momo nodded and then continued.


"Today is your birthday, this servant has embroidered a pair of mandarin duck pillow for you and Huang zi Fei."


As soon as the words were said, Shen momo took out the well prepared gift and handed it to Chu Li.


Mu Yunjin followed to look and caught a glimpse of the big scarlet pillowcase embroidered with a pair of intersecting mandarin ducks, and the corners of her mouth were slightly drawn as she subconsciously looked at Chu Li.


Chu Li fixed his eyes to look at the mandarin duck pillowcase for a long time, before stretching his hand out to receive it from Shen Momo and began to speak timidly.


"Thanks for your trouble."


"No trouble, no trouble."


Shen momo saw Chu Li has accepted it, her eyes were filled with joy, and then she looked at Mu Yunjin.


"Liu Huang zi Fei, what's your gift?"


Mu Yunjin curved her lips into a mysterious smile.


"It is on the dining table."


(TL: At this point I am currently antic.i.p.ating Chu Li's reaction. I think we all know what is waiting for him, with the t.i.tle and all.. Harharhar! Mu Yunjin is like a mom who wants to feed her child vegetables that he hates! and Chu Li is that said child! hahaha)


……….


A moment later, in the dining room.


After the crowd looked at the table full of dishes. They were surprised and shock, then they all consciously observed Chu Li's expression.


They saw Chu Li frowning, his eyes glued to the food on the table, after a moment, his cold line of vision went to Mu Yunjin.


"Mu! Yun! Jin!"


Chu Li swept a glance at Mu Yunjin, and his originally consistent undisturbed handsome face. At this moment raised a layer of anger and loudly enunciated Mu Yunjin's name.


Ding Xian stood behind Chu Li, and made a slight gesture of mourning to Mu Yunjin.


Mu Yunjin, however, ignored Chu Li's freezing anger emanating from his body, and pointed to those dishes.


"That is carrot beef soup, carrot scrambled eggs, sour and spicy carrot cubes…."


Mu Yunjin introduced almost twenty dishes to everyone, and every dish was added with carrots.


"That's the best, carrots fried pig's liver…"


On the side, Shen momo and Ding Xian heard this, shaking their heads toward Mu Yunjin, and motioned for her to stop talking.


Mu Yunjin automatically ignored those eyes and looked at Chu Li.


"You don't like to eat these things, but it's good for you, let alone that I have already asked people to put carrots in all kinds of dishes so it has no carrot taste.''


"You, how about trying it?"


Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin, his original anger, after she said those words, unconsciously dissipated, and his cold eyes also became blazing hot.


"Let's eat."


Chu Li uttered in a cold voice, and then sat down.


On the side, Shen momo and Ding Xian exchanged a look. Their eyes were full of wonder, did His Highness just compromise?


In the process of eating, Mu Yunjin occasionally helped Chu Li to place those carrots in his bowl, while the rest of the other meat is placed in her own bowl.


Chu Li frowned at this scene and felt a little upset. But he still pressed his anger and said.


"This prince remember, you also like to eat this radish. ''


Mu Yunjin has just taken a beef, after chewing a few mouths, she answer Chu Li's words


"Today is your birthday, these are your birthday gifts, you should enjoy yourself."


After her words fell, she ate a mouthful of egg.


Chu Li sees this and his lips drew a very light smile, and he slowly spoke


"If you are not afraid of this prince to let the bank seal your thirty-two thousand gold, then accompany this prince to eat some of this."


"……"


Mu Yunjin stopped eating.


Is she being threatened?


Mu Yunjin wanted to talk back and speak about his Bird Blindness. But last time she brought up this matter, she found him difficult to deal with so she had to put her words back to her throat.


Then she filled herself with a bowl of carrots and bowed her head and started to eat.


Chu Li saw this scene and felt a little more comfortable.


(TL: I find their interaction amusing and refreshing..)


……….


On the way back to the Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion, Mu Yunjin walked slowly, and from time to time she stroked her stomach, and breathed a sigh.


Chu Li took in a panoramic view of this scene, his pair of glazed eyes faintly fell on Mu Yunjin.


"Tomorrow, this prince will go out of the city to handle a matter, for about half a month."


After saying that, even Chu Li did not know why he wanted to report his journey to Mu Yunjin.


"Again, you'll disappear for half a month?"


Mu Yunjin raised an eyebrow, and then she added.


"Why don't you take me with you? I am always here all day, and I am almost bored to death."


Chu Li paused, He did not expect Mu Yunjin to suggest this.


He wanted to speak and directly refuse, but when he saw the bright and enthusiastic look in her eyes, the demons and G.o.ds at work came to his head.


"Your Highness…"


Ding Xian sees this scene and moved forward to Chu Li.


"No harm, this is not a matter of importance."


Chu Li indifferently replied.


Mu Yunjin glared at Ding Xian, and then looked at Chu Li and smiled.


"That's good, take me along this time."


"En."


Chu Li nodded.


After reaching a consensus with Chu Li, Mu Yunjin returned to her room and began to pack her luggage.


"Xiaojie, can this servant be able to follow you?"


Zi Xiang looked at Mu Yunjin packing her things and was unwilling to part.


"You, this girl, I will only be gone for half a month, and I will be back very soon."


Mu Yunjin casted a side long glance towards Zi Xiang.


Zi Xiang sniffed her nose.


"Okay, this servant will not follow, anyway, Liu Huang zi is there."


"This is also Xiaojie and Liu Huang zi's opportunity to interact with each other."


"Don't think too much about it."


Mu Yunjin lightly knocked on Zi Xiang's head.


"I just want to see places outside b.u.t.terfly flower city."


In this Xi Yuan country, she has learned that there are more than a dozen large and small cities , and aside from this vast and magnificent Xi Yuan country, thereare also the three countries of Dong Lin country, Nan Ting country, and Bei Ming country. These three countries have about thirty to forty cities added together.


There are so many places that she has never been to. How can she stoop to wait in b.u.t.terfly Flower city?


As soon as she had packed her bags, she was ready to take a rest, she then heard a knock on the door.


"Huang zi Fei, it is time to go."


Ha?


"Do you journey through the night?"


Mu Yunjin asked.


"Yes, your highness is ready and is waiting for you."


Ding Xian replied.


Mu Yunjin sighed. It seems that in the past when she woke up and Chu Li is gone, and his whereabouts were unknown. Apparently he had always left in the middle of the night.


Dismissing her thoughts, Mu Yunjin lifted her baggage and walked out.


After leaving the door, Ding Xian took Mu Yunjin to the direction of the back door of the Fu.


Parked at the back door was Chu Li's black wood carriage.


Mu Yunjin got into the carriage, she saw Chu Li sitting inside, leaning against the carriage, his eyes closed, resting.


Seeing this, Mu Yunjin put down her luggage, glimpsing the closed eyes of Chu Li, she then sit on one side, while Chu Li is not looking, she not in the least caring of her image, laid down.


It's the most comfortable lying down.


Without thinking, Mu Yunjin yawned, she closed her eyes and rest.


The moment she closed her eyes, Chu Li slowly opened his eyes, his languid eyes swept on Mu Yunjin's body. He then looked down on the jade pendant he has been holding in his hands, his eyes are deep in thought.

Hi guys,


I'm back for now, I got held up a bit last week.


My father went to the hospital and had angiogram but the doctor did not continue to do angioplasty, he said that my father needs to undergo Bypa.s.s operation so he got released quickly. My father is still reluctant to undergo bypa.s.s operation (Well, who wants to have their chest cut open...it's really hard to accept...) and still hasn't agreed to do the procedure. The doctor said that we as family can't decide for him coz he has to agree himself and be ready himself....


So on that note, sooner or later I might go MIA again for a much longer break, I'll give a heads up when it's confirmed. For now, I'll post releases on schedule.


P.S.


Please help me pray for my papa's health...


Thanks a lot guys!
