Chapter 1383 - 1467: Just Pretend You Didn’t See It
Yun Ge suddenly cast a glare.
Cough cough!
Shujun quickly stifled the laughter threatening to burst from his lips. He straightened his attitude, serious and meticulous, and swiftly read through the secret message. Afterward, he remarked playfully, "Aren’t you making a big deal out of nothing?"
"What did you say?"
"I said you’re making a big deal out of nothing."
Shujun put down the message, "Actually, I can understand The Sixth Princess’s thoughts. Although she is somewhat domineering in her actions, after all, it’s been so many years, and the wife hasn’t returned to the Capital, disregarding everything there. It’s not wrong for her to think this way. People’s hearts are fickle; if she recklessly trusts the wife and something really goes wrong, she wouldn’t be able to bear it."
"Nonsense!" Yun Ge flung her sleeve angrily, "How can you speak for her? The reason Purple Chervil hasn’t returned to the Capital all these years might be unknown to others, but you brothers, don’t you understand?"
"That’s because she doesn’t remember at all! Her memory is incomplete, all because of the Devouring God Gu! Everything in the Capital is unfamiliar to her, and since it’s unfamiliar, why would she purposely make a trip here? Besides, this place is essentially the Dragon’s Den and Tiger’s Lair!"
Shujun smiled, "I said I can understand, but it doesn’t mean I agree with her approach. She’s scheming solely to ensure the Ninth Princess’s safety. However, from my standpoint, as Xiao Hui’s husband, I’d rather endure wrongs myself than see her get hurt in the slightest."
"The Sixth Princess’s attitude towards Xiao Hui seems as if she can summon her whenever she wants, as if Xiao Hui would comply with her demands just by asking. She has never considered Xiao Hui; on one hand, she needs help, yet on the other, she acts as if she doesn’t. This makes me displeased and stirs your anger too."
Clearly needing help, yet she maintains her airs, simultaneously suspecting while wanting to use someone; isn’t she too greedy? Perhaps her years have indeed been difficult, but her way of handling things really irks Shujun and Yun Ge.
Moreover, Prince Meng merely had someone send a letter. Even if Marshal Baowei was once loyal to the Ninth Princess, you need to understand that Baowei’s loyalty is to the Ninth Princess, not to the Sixth Princess, Prince Meng. Frankly, Prince Meng doesn’t have the qualifications and should not act high and mighty when giving orders to Dong Huiying.
The two remained silent for a moment.
Yun Ge suddenly tore the letter to pieces. "Unless she personally comes to beg, I will pretend I never saw this letter!"
"That’s better!"
Shujun smiled like a red fox, showing the two of them had reached an agreement on this matter.
"Hey, what are you two doing?" Dong Huiying pushed the door open and entered.
Yun Ge glared hatefully at Dong Huiying, "We’re talking about cheap labor!"
Dong Huiying looked confused, "What cheap labor?" She was a bit concerned; why did Yun Ge look so angry — did someone upset her Little Pigeon?
"Hmph!" Yun Ge turned her head away.
Dong Huiying was even more bewildered.
Could it be her? Did she upset Yun Ge?
Beside her, Shujun had a barely suppressed smile, "Wife, come over here," he gestured to Dong Huiying, whose face was full of confusion.
In the end, Dong Huiying was dragged away by Shujun, while Yun Ge gritted her teeth fiercely, "This heartless jerk!"
Yun Ge pressed her forehead, feeling quite speechless over her friend’s obliviousness.
