"No Wedding Unless Enemies and Lovers" 《不是冤家不拜堂》Chapter 65

 Ji Ling Xue blinked as she looked at the silvers in Ru Ge's hand then back at Ru Ge's deadpan face.

What was the meaning of this? Was he complaining that the allowance she gave him was too little?

Ji Ling Xue searched in her chest, she then took out another ten silvers and placed them in Ru Ge's palm, asking with a raised eyebrow: "This should be enough for you to drink right?"

Ru Ge: "..."

Mo Xiang carrying a washbowl hurried in, seeing Ji Ling Xue the first words she said were: "Mistress, Chi Feng is asking to see you."

Ru Ge seeing it had nothing to do with him, his question was also not going to be answered, he left rather angrily, he might as well understand by spending it on the streets, how much could he actually buy with ten silvers.

"Who is Chi Feng?" Ji Ling Xue who had been in the rear courtyard for so long, was not aware of those around Xiao Yi Chen.

Mo Xiang explained: "Prince's personal trusted advisor, he lives in the residence, he is the prince's most trusted aide."

Ji Ling Xue played around with a strand of hair, "Why is he here?"

Mo Xiang was silent for a moment then said: "I heard he was told to come ask mistress some questions." She could not ask what specifically, it shouldn't be related to the thief who entered the residence right?

 

Mo Xiang worriedly looked at Ji Ling Xue, Ji Ling Xue expression was tranquil, she nodded saying: "Let him wait, this princess has yet to freshen up, Mo Xiang, come here help this princess change."

Thus, Chi Feng stood at the doorway of the side courtyard under the scorching sun, layers of sweat appeared on his body, he raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his face, a trace of a bitter smile on his lips, this fool princess was deliberately giving him the cold-shoulder, such a pity he was a gentleman, he wouldn't directly break down the door and enter like the head guard.

While Chi Feng was pondering whether to go in or not, the courtyard door open, revealing Mo Xiang's spring like smiling face, "Advisor Chi sorry for the long wait, princess just woke up, follow me."

Chi Feng once again rubbed the sweat on his face, following Mo Xiang into a small drawing room, his eyes whirling around, looking at the crude and basic objects in the house.

"Trusted advisor has come to deliver furniture from the prince?" Ji Ling Xue threw this complicated question as soon as she stepped through the door.

Xiao Yi Chen had promised to change all her furniture, now the palace banquet had ended, the promise had yet to manifest.

Chi Feng smiled explaining: "The housekeeper deals with the purchase of furniture, maybe the housekeeper was too busy and forgot, when I leave I'll help you prompt him."

Ji Ling Xue nodded, sitting in front of Chi Feng, she drank from the cup of tea that Mo Xiang had handed to her, "Oh, then why has advisor come?"

Chi Feng swallowed saliva, his throat felt dry, he was quite thirsty.

He had basked in the sun for so long, he was completely dried out, this Ji Ling Xue had no sense of awareness at all, not even giving him a cup of tea to drink.

Chi Feng whined in his mind, but did not want to ask, he could only stare at the tea cup in Ji Ling Xue's hand.

Ji Ling Xue raised her head meeting Chi Feng's thirsty gaze, she smiled: "Look at me, I forgot to give you a cup of tea, Mo Xiang..."

Mo Xiang standing by the door righteously replied: "In response to princess, we don't have extra teacups here, if advisor doesn't mind, this servant will give you a bowl."

Chi Feng's lips twitched, he was currently very thirsty, he completely didn't care if water was placed in a bowl instead of a cup.

Chi Feng: "Of course it's fine, thank you for lady Mo Xiang's trouble."

After a quarter of a hour, Mo Xiang carried a broken bowl into the room, passing it to Chi Feng with passion.

Chi Feng promptly took it, as he was about to drink, his palm felt hot, a drop of hot water flowed from his palm towards his wrist dripping onto the floor. On closer inspection, there was a crack in the middle of the bowl, the hot water was leaking out in this way.

Chi Feng clenched his teeth drinking up the remaining water in the bowl in one go, his throat no longer felt dry, finally he felt relaxed.
