The Great Planned Marriage: Becoming A Splendid Princess Chapter 61 Showed His Mind

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was not angry at all. She yawned in a delicate manner, and looked at Zhou Ruru casually, "If you didn't hear it, then forget it."

Zhou Ruru, "..."

Compared with s.h.i.+ Qingxue, no one was more capable to make others mad with words. As for her n.o.ble posture, Zhou Ruru was even unable to imitate it.

s.h.i.+ Junhe watched aside and laughed secretly. Seeing that Zhou Ruru was so awkward that she almost became angry, he stood out to calm her down, "Okay, it's not early now. Miss Zhou, please go back!"

He didn't even call her Sister Zhou, which showed that he wanted to keep his distance with Zhou Ruru. But Zhou Ruru was unwilling!

"What about Qingxue? Why don't you tell her to go back?" She finally blocked s.h.i.+ Junhe in the bedroom, just to make something happen tonight, or to make people believe that something happened between them. In this way, he had to marry her.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue smiled slightly, "Because I am my dad's baby daughter! Of course, it is different. If you also want it, my dad will adopt you as a daughter! Then you can stay in this room as long as you want to. What do you think of it?"

s.h.i.+ Junhe's eyes lit up. Why didn't he think of this way? Anyway, Zhou Ruru could be his daughter at this age. If he really adopted her as a daughter, he could prevent others from matching them, and there wouldn't be anything ambiguous.

But when Zhou Ruru heard it, she was so frightened that her face changed. She shook her head and refused, "No!"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue ridiculed and said, "Why not? Don't you admire my dad so much? I am being generous to share my dad's favor with you, but why do you become unwilling? Is your admiration mentioned before fake?"

"Of course not!" Zhou Ruru was afraid to make s.h.i.+ Junhe misunderstand her, so she denied. But she was pushed by s.h.i.+ Qingxue into such a dilemma, where she could neither deny nor admit.

After thinking for a long time, she barely found a reason, "I am a cousin of Sister Ruyu, so I am of the same generation with Brother s.h.i.+. It will be inappropriate to regard me as an adopted daughter."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue smiled slightly and said, "You are not our relative, so the seniority is not strictly defined. I call you Aunt Ru today, but it's also okay to call you Sister Ru tomorrow. We are not related by blood, anyway. There won't be a problem if my dad regards you as an adopted daughter.

Such things also happened in the last dynasty. In this way, no matter how late you stay here, no one will gossip."

Zhou Ruru's last reason was refuted, so she couldn't say a word at all.

Of course, s.h.i.+ Qingxue didn't really want s.h.i.+ Junhe to adopt Zhou Ruru. Seeing that Zhou Ruru was choked and speechless, after a long while, she asked calmly, "Now, does Aunt Ru insist on staying here?"

Zhou Ruru's face was twisted like a withered chrysanthemum, and she said reluctantly, "It's getting late. I shall go back first!"

Seeing Zhou Ruru walk away destructively, the father and daughter finally couldn't help laughing out.

s.h.i.+ Junhe touched the tip of Qingxue's nose with love and smiled, "You are really capable. You actually made her speechless with just a few words."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue raised her head proudly and snorted, "There's no need to mention. Who the h.e.l.l is she? I don't want to mind her in normal days, but she actually has become more and more rampant. She will think that I am easy to bully if I don't teach her a lesson!"

However, this time it was just a small victory for s.h.i.+ Qingxue, which would make Zhou Ruru restrain herself for the time being. But she still didn't have any means to drive Zhou Ruru away.

Thinking of this, s.h.i.+ Qingxue felt bothered. Dong Hui was not in the house of the s.h.i.+ Family, and s.h.i.+ Baoning was unwilling to come out recently. There was no one whom she could talk with. She was so bored that she had to go for a walk with Xia Mang and Dong Shuang to relax.

In order not to meet the acquaintances, she specially chose the Yinfeng Lake, which was broad and uncrowded, to admire the snowy scenery. Unexpectedly, when they had just arrived at the small pavilion in the middle of the lake, they met another group of people coming from the opposite side.

Dong Shuang had a good sight and she recognized the coming people at once. She shouted loudly, "Sixth Lady, they are Crown Prince and King Rui's eldest son."

She shouted so aloud as if she were afraid that the people on the opposite side couldn't hear it. It was too late for Qingxue to hide away, so she had to greet them unwillingly.

"Your Highness. Your Excellency." After she greeted them politely, s.h.i.+ Qingxue couldn't help but look at Mo Junyang secretly.

They hadn't met each other for a few days. This man looked even more cruel and ruthless, making people frightened. And he turned to look at the lake with his cold eyes, as if he hadn't seen s.h.i.+ Qingxue or heard her greeting. He was silent like a statue.

Mo Junyu wanted to be a good man by giving them two some private s.p.a.ce. But after a while, Mo Junyang still didn't reply. So he could only take the initiative to greet her, "It's freezing and cold. Sister Xue, why don't you wear more clothes when you come out to admire the snowy view? It would be bad, if you were sick."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue finally had the courage to greet Mo Junyang, but she didn't expect to be treated like this. She was also annoyed, so she simply ignored Mo Junyang. And she chatted with Mo Junyu, "Thank Your Highness for caring about me. I don't feel cold."

"It's a rare chance for us to meet. Why don't we go to the pavilion and sit together for a while and drink a cup of hot wine to drive off the cold. What do you think?"

The Crown Prince invited her, and s.h.i.+ Qingxue certainly couldn't refuse. But at this time, Mo Junyang suddenly said, "I still have business to deal with. I can't stay for a long time."

He actually wasn't willing to sit with s.h.i.+ Qingxue for a while.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue's eyes dimmed, and all her anger turned into disappointment. She didn't even know why Mo Junyang suddenly became cold to her. But such indifference was hard for her to get used to.

Mo Junyu raised his eyebrows and looked at s.h.i.+ Qingxue, then turned his head to see Mo Junyang. There was inquiry in his eyes, "I tried hard and gained such a benefit for you. Were you sure that you didn't want it?"

Mo Junyang was still indifferent.

Mo Junyu suddenly smiled slyly, and said deliberately, "Then it's your loss to give up such an appet.i.te. Sister Xue, let's drink and leave him alone!"

He did not believe that Mo Junyang could allow him to accompany s.h.i.+ Qingxue to drink wine and do nothing!

As he had expected, Mo Junyang frowned slightly, obviously unhappy.

Mo Junyu was proud of himself for finally taking advantage of his weakness, and wanted to take this chance to tease Mo Junyang more, he heard the other party say coldly, "Hasn't Your Highness promised to meet Master Leng in the Tongxiang Pavilion? You are already late now. Is Your Highness planning to break the appointment?"

After he said this, he also added a sigh, as if lamenting for the good character that the Crown Prince was losing.

Mo Junyu was choked. Although he was completely sure that the person who had made an appointment with Leng Yuan wasn't him, in Mo Junyang's cold sight, he didn't dare to refute! He had to take the blame for being late.

He smirked, "That's really unlucky. I'm afraid I can't accompany Sister Xue to enjoy the snow."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue hoped that them could leave as soon as possible, so she quickly said, "It doesn't matter. If Your Highness has something important to do, please deal with it first!"

Mo Junyu didn't even know what to say to these two people, so he had to hit Mo Junyang's shoulder as a silent inquiry, "Since you didn't want to stay here, should we go?"

Mo Junyang glanced at Zhou Ji beside Mo Junyu and suddenly said, "Since you don't appreciate the snow any more, why do you still take these hip flasks?"

"What?" Mo Junyu looked at Mo Junyang's impatient face, then he glanced at s.h.i.+ Qingxue's red face because of the coldness. Suddenly he understood but then became very sad.

So not only did Mo Junyang deprive him of the opportunity to enjoy the snow, but he also made him contribute his good wine to s.h.i.+ Qingxue in order to warm her body.

Was there any justice?

Mo Junyu roared in his heart, but he had to obediently offer his good wine. He was also afraid that the wine was too cold for s.h.i.+ Qingxue to drink, so he asked Zhou Ji to send it to her after heating it up.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was very grateful. Before leaving, she couldn't help but glance at Mo Junyang secretly, and her feelings were complicated.

She did understand how kind Mo Junyang was to her, and she also did appreciate him for it. But the pain in her previous life made her unable to chase love as boldly as before.

There was one point made it harder for her to be relieved. Mo Junyang was still Mo Junyang, but wasn't the one whom she used to know. Every time Mo Junyang treated her well, she wished to do something in return, but at the same time, she also felt upset, because the real Mo Junyang would never receive or care about her intention to compensate him.

"Fine! The things in the family are already annoying enough. If he wants to stay away from me, it will be fine!" Even though s.h.i.+ Qingxue hadn't figured out why Mo Junyang suddenly alienated her but still cared for her as usual, she made a decision in her heart, which was to keep her distance with Mo Junyang.

After leaving the Yinfeng Lake, Mo Junyang didn't go to meet Leng Yuan. Instead, he chose a high platform which was away from the pavilion in the middle of the lake but made him be able to see the person in the pavilion clearly. He looked at the distance, skilled at peeking.

Mo Junyu was almost speechless behind him, "Well! Since Duke s.h.i.+ returned to the capital city, you always looked cold, as if someone had owed you a great amount of money. Your expression is even the same when you meet s.h.i.+ Qingxue. What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." He answered coldly and wanted to let this matter go.

Mo Junyu knew that if his study accompany really didn't want to say it, then he wouldn't be able to get any answers no matter how hard he tried. So he could only talk about something that the other party must be concerned about, "A few days ago, the spy reported the news that your baby was getting extremely annoyed these days!"

Mo Junyang looked forward without blinking, as if he didn't hear what Mo Junyu had said.

Mo Junyu had no choice but to expose more, "Princess Royal is trying to add a concubine to First Master's Family. The lady from the Zhou Family has made First Master's Family in the s.h.i.+ Family messy. It is said that Duke s.h.i.+ doesn't dare to go back to his own reading room recently, and First Madam is so angry that she has returned to her parents' home.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue is so pitiful that she is just fifteen years old but is about to become a poor baby who is lack of parents' love!"

Mo Junyang finally reluctantly looked at Mo Junyu, but he looked indifferent, "Are you so talkative?"

Mo Junyu was choked, and felt that this was going to be horrible. Mo Junyang was still indifferent even when he heard that s.h.i.+ Qingxue was suffering. There must be something wrong!

"What's wrong with you exactly?" Mo Junyu's voice was a little anxious, and his eyes also showed his concerns.

Mo Junyang was silent for a while, and asked in a low voice, "If... If there is a person, who is your enemy and almost make you die, what will you think when that person suddenly changes her att.i.tude and becomes nice to you after you try hard and escape from death?"
