Proofread By Claire . KK

Mu Nanzhi quickly waved her hands saying, “I’m in no hurry . Go to help marquess come here . Tell him to take his time . It was such a cold winter, he should wear much more clothes than before . Walk slowly when you hold him . ”

“I’ll keep them in my mind . Enjoy yourself, princess . I’ll go first . ” Du Heng bowed and left the room .

Mu Nanzhi felt pretty relieved as she took off the heavy fox fur coat . She walked freely in the room and looked around . Mu Nanzhi was almost sure that Lu Zhishan should have been there for many times before as the decoration here was extremely similar to that of the Marquess Mansion . Of course it looked more casual and the Marquess Mansion was more serious . For example, there were luxuriant daffodils on the table . Each of them gracefully erected and sent forth a delicate fragrance, simple but elegant . Mu Nanzhi loved the smell so much . Her heart was filled with delight as she approached the small flowers . Two months had past since she began pretending to be sick at home . And she always looked forward to going out to have a look . Now her dream just came true, which brought her great pleasure .

Mu Nanzhi walked around the room and went back to the soft couch . It looked much bigger than others and so was the small rosewood table . On the table lied a copper pot and white steam was rising from the pot . The whole room was gradually filled with the appealing smell of mutton . Mu Nanzhi licked her lips, stretching out her hands and picking up a piece of puff pastry .

‘Why hasn’t he come?’ wondering Mu Nanzhi in her heart .

‘I want to eat the mutton now!’

Finis.h.i.+ng the puff pasty and two pieces of chestnut shortbread, she suddenly heard steps in the corridor . She then quickly jumped down the soft couch and rushed to the door . “Cousin, you finally get here!”

Noticing the dregs of snacks on her mouth, Lu Zhishan burst into laughter asking, “Sorry to have you waiting . Are you hungry now?”

Mu Nanzhi couldn’t help fixing her eyes on Lu Zhishan’s leg . It was the first time that she had ever watched Lu Zhishan walking to her . She was always clear that Lu Zhishan was suffering from some disease on his leg . But seeing it so suddenly with her own eyes still saddened her pretty much . Her cousin was such a great hero who fought bravely on battlefields . It was a pity for him to have got the leg disease . What was worse, emperor also hold a cold att.i.tude towards him and even refused to see him these years . In this case, no people of the capital city would like to visit the powerless marquess . Lu Zhishan could do nothing but stay at the large mansion silently, never stepping out of the gate during the first three years . He kept so careful and tried hard to avoid mistakes . But now he got out of the capital city only to fulfill her desire for food .

The longer she thought, the more regretful she was . She was going to cry when she continued speaking again . “Cousin, I will never be wayward again . Does your leg hurt now? Can you stand it?”

Both Lu Zhishan and Du Heng got stunned hearing those words . Lu Zhishan quickly answered, “It doesn’t hurt now . But it is still a bit uncomfortable . Don’t cry . ”

Mu Nanzhi just lowered her head and kept quiet . She couldn’t feel hungry or smell the fragrance of the daffodils any longer when she came back to the room . She was intended to take off the cape for Lu Zhishan but Du Heng did it in advance . Then she could only stand aside and watch Du Heng taking off the cape for Lu Zhishan and helping him wash his hands . Finally Du Heng withdrew while carrying the basin .

“What’s wrong?” Lu Zhishan walked to the young girl and touched her head . Mu Nanzhi’s hair was made into a chignon with a white jade hair clasp that was decorated with ruby and gold wires, which was simple and gave people an auspicious impression . Lu Zhishan slowly touched the hair of the young girl with his finger pulps . It seemed that the hair was much softer than silk .
