491 He called me pretty
The next morning, Jingfei when woke up she recalled how the last night Xu Zifan left. He looked troubled, but he didn’t share his worries with her, which was understandable to her.
Lin Jie told Jingfei that the bathhouse was ready and she should follow her. However, Jingfei didn’t want to get out of bed. “I want to sleep more,” She said with an upset look.
“Lord Xu will head to the work soon,” Lin Jie informed Jingfei. Upon hearing that statement, Jingfei quickly got off the bed and left for the washroom with Lin Jie.
While bathing, Jingfei asked Lin Jie what she should do to make Xu Zifan happier.
“He is hurt because of yesterday’s incident. Don’t you think that the Noble Consort was too harsh on him? She thinks so highly of herself. Even father supported her,” Jingfei said and twitched her lips.
“My Lady, last night Lord Xu didn’t sleep. I heard from the servant that he was drinking all alone. Even his friend wasn’t with him,” Lin Jie informed Jingfei as she massaged her shoulders.
Jingfei got saddened to hear those words.
“My Lady, will you be able to love Lord Xu?” Lin Jie asked.
“What do you mean?” Jingfei asked her to clarify.
.....
“My Lady has been betrayed twice in love,” Lin Jie said.
“Don’t say that. Huang Xi didn’t reciprocate my feelings because I wasn’t good to the people whom he respected. I didn’t fall for Li Jianjun. I thought he was a nice man with whom I could spend my entire life. But I was wrong,” Jingfei asserted. She told Lin Jie that she would become the best wife to Xu Zifan.
Lin Jie smiled and poured the water over her shoulders. “My Lady has changed in the past few days. I pray for her great married life,” she stated.
Jingfei smiled a little, but internally she was scared. What if Xu Zifan refused to start a marital relationship with her? She troubled Li Hua a lot, so he might ignored her all the time.
After a good bath, she dressed into a nice Hanfu outfit and twirled in front of the mirror. “How do I look?” Jingfei asked Lin Jie and stopped as she turned to her.
But to her surprise, Xu Zifan was standing in front of her. Lin Jie was behind him with her head down. She silently walked out of the dressing room.
“Do you want to drink tea?” Jingfei asked. That was the only thing that came into her head at that moment.
“I already have tea,” Xu Zifan replied.
“Ohh.” Jingfei was dejected to learn that. She thought they both would have at least the tea together.
“You are pretty, so every dress on you makes you look beautiful,” Xu Zifan said.
Jingfei was stunned to hear those words. Many had praised her, but this compliment was special for her. “Thank you,” She said and smiled at him.
“Forgive me for my last night’s behavior. I wasn’t in my right mind. I hope I haven’t hurt you,” Xu Zifan stated.
“Not at all,” Jingfei instantly answered. “You can never hurt me,” she asserted.
“I will be leaving for my workplace in a few minutes. Feng Lao will also not be at home. He has joined the work too. Servants are present here, so you don’t need to work. Have your breakfast and lunch. I will see you in the evening,” Xu Zifan said. Jingfei nodded her head and saw him turn but then he didn’t go out.
Instead, he turned to her again. “Do you want me to bring something from the market for you?” He asked.
“Umm... No. Just come home early,” Jingfei said while keeping a tiny smile on her lips.
“I will try.” Xu Zifan didn’t promise her that he would be home early.
“Xu Zifan,” Jingfei called his name.
“Hmm?”
“If Jianjun comes to you, don’t just listen to him. Show him your strength. Tell me, if he troubles you. I will make him wither in pain,” Jingfei told Xu Zifan.
Her words made Xu Zifan chuckle and he ended up laughing. Jingfei gazed at him with inquisitiveness and told him she was not joking.
“I never said that I laughed because I took that as a joke,” Xu Zifan proclaimed.
“Then?” Jingfei asked.
“I am getting late. I should leave.” Xu Zifan didn’t answer her question and turned to leave when Jingfei told him to take her name at least while speaking to her. Xu Zifan didn’t respond and left her sight.
Jingfei covered her cheeks with her hands. “He called me pretty,” she said while blushing.
~~~~~
“What? Lóng Wei has returned? So early?” Xiuying put the embellished fingernail on the table as the smile disappeared from her lips.
“The Sixth Prince had gone to meet His Majesty and they conversed for a long time,” the maidservant informed Xiuying.
“What did they talk about?” Xiuying asked.
“That’s unknown, Consort Xiu,” the maidservant replied.
“Don’t come here with incomplete information. Leave my sight,” Xiuying said in annoyance. Her entire mood had turned off, after she heard Lóng Wei return to the palace safe and healthy.
“I heard the Second Mother was missing me,” Lóng Wei’s eyes fell into her ears, and she promptly lifted her head.
“How dare the Prince come here without prior permission?” Xiuying got angry at him.
“I don’t need permission to come here. The Second Mother has my favor on her. She forgot so easily how I took her out of the prison,” Lóng Wei said with a smirk.
“Why is the Prince here?” Xiuying asked.
“To seek an apology,” Lóng Wei answered.
“Pardon me?”
“Apologize to Xu Zifan for what you did yesterday. You have time till the afternoon, else by this evening, I will humiliate you and your son,” Lóng Wei announced. “I don’t want to hear your excuses. So, better go and beg for his forgiveness,” He proclaimed and left the chamber.
“What did he just say? Why would I ask for forgiveness?” Xiuying snickered and ignored Lóng Wei’s threat.
