CEO Comes from Ancient Times - C230
After Xi Sumo woke up from his fever, he went to find Chu Nantian. She did this to confirm something, and she was also surprised by Chu Nantian’s invitation. However, she also wanted to get a deeper understanding of the situation, and to clarify the situation.
After sharing lunch, she went back to her room to rest. Chu Nantian very politely sent her back, but once he entered the room, he never left, staying in her room in the name of reading books: “Go to sleep, I’ll play the flute for you to see, just like that night. You know, I won’t offend you. ”
Xi Sumo did not refuse, because no matter how deep the gourd was, Chu Nantian had a motive. When it was clean, which was when he showed his true face, she asked Shan Shan to put down the tent and at the same time gave her a look.
Shan Shan understood, and stayed in the house, right in front of her bed.
Amidst the melodious flute music, Xi Sanmo slowly fell asleep.
When she woke up in the afternoon, Chu Nantian invited her out for a walk in the sun. He even took the cloak from Luo Shan and tied it for her.
Even Luo Shan gently tugged on the corner of Xi Suming’s clothes and pouted at her, trying to persuade her to pay attention to distance and propriety.
However, she did not seem to mind. Walking side by side with Chu Nantian, chatting and laughing, she was extremely unhappy. Her appearance was like a pair of intimate lovers that could not bear to part with one another.
Even though the Xi Family’s rules were strict, the servants still talked about it secretly.
“Miss, what happened?”
“Did she fall in love with Young Master Chu again?”
“Although the prince is noble, he is not good to the young miss. Have you ever seen the prince treat the young miss in such a gentle manner?” No matter how strong Miss is, she’s still a woman. If she’s a woman, then she naturally likes gentle and affectionate men.
“What’s more, the young miss and the prince have an engagement. Does the young miss want to violate the contract, or do you want to ensnare the old master in the midst of his injustice?”
“Do you want to ask about Samantha? Should I call the Madam back to take charge of the show? ”
People who had good intentions ran to Luo Shan and secretly expressed them in a corner.
Luo Shan’s first reaction was to smack that person into the ground. Although she also felt that there was something wrong with Xi Sanmo, she still stood up for him without any hesitation, “What breach of contract? In this world, only the King bullies the Young Miss, so why don’t you choose someone else? Not to mention not getting married, even if she did, the young miss would still be able to remarry. ”
“Scram! Scram! Scram! Scram! Then, when I hear you whispering to the little miss, I will chase all of you out of the house and let all of you see the street!” Remember, the rest of your peaceful lives today were given to you by the young mistress. If it weren’t for the young mistress saving you from the refugees, you would have starved to death on the streets long ago. “Me too, so we need to know how to repay a favor, no matter what Miss does, we have to support Miss, not doubt Miss, do you understand?”
The sounds of discussion stopped, but Chu Nantian’s actions became more and more excessive. When crossing the bridge, he would always place his hand on Xi Sanmo’s waist and gently say, “Be careful.”
When he reached the cold chair, he would help Xi Sanmo to sit down and then order someone to bring him hot tea to quench his thirst. When Simone finished her water, he wiped her mouth with a silk handkerchief. When he got up, he had to help Xi Sumo tie up the cloak. All his actions were so considerate.
However, Xi Sumo didn’t feel anything and didn’t object to it. To thoroughly investigate Nantian’s motives and identity, she had to pay a price, not to mention that Chu Nantian’s actions had not broken her bottom line. Since they hadn’t broken through yet, why did they have to be so coquettish? Why not laugh it off and act it out with each other?
By the evening, the temperature had gradually turned cold. Xi Sumo was also a bit tired, so she stood up to bid farewell to Chu Nantian.
Chu Nantian wanted to continue, he pressed on her shoulder, and smiled with gentleness and charm: “Since ancient literati loved the beauty of the setting sun, before such beautiful scenery, why don’t you listen to me play another song!”
His docile appearance was comparable to a well-trained pet dog, making his master unable to feel even the slightest bit of disgust or suspicion.
The flute’s sound was like a gentle tide, gently pushing forward. It soaked the fine sand, yet it was also like smooth silk brushing across one’s face. When he reached out to grab it, it slipped away from his fingertips, causing him to feel an itch.
After the song, Xi Sumo was mesmerized and could not recover from the shock for a long time. Only when Chu Nantian’s slender fingers touched her delicate face did she regain her senses and quickly evade his gentle attacks.
However, he was not angry. Instead, he tactfully stood up, took a step back, and said with a smile, “I heard that Miss Xi’s culinary skills are outstanding, I wonder if you will have a chance to have a taste tonight.”
Luoshan interjected, “Young Master Chu, Miss’s body isn’t completely healed. She has accompanied you for one day, I believe she is tired. How about another day?”
Chu Nantian did not insist and nodded with a smile, “That’s true too, I’m too inconsiderate. I wonder if I can send Miss Xi back to her room and also have dinner with her in the Silent Fragrance Courtyard?”
“This… “Isn’t it too late? If by any chance the king …”
Xi Sumo promptly interrupted Luo Shan’s words, and smiled with ulterior motives: “I always say that you rely on your parents and friends at home, and Young Master Chu is not familiar with this place. As a friend who goes through thick and thin together, I naturally have to act as a host and take care of Young Master Chu. It’s rare for Young Master Chu to cherish my culinary skills. Why don’t I cook some dishes for Young Master Chu tonight and have some drinks? “After Young Master Chu returns to the Kingdom of Yin Mountain, when I find it hard to ask for Young Master Chu’s help one day, I will forget that Young Master Chu can also remember this friendship and extend a helping hand.”
Chu Nantian was confused by her harmless smile and put down his promise, “Although Miss Xi is a woman, she is a bit more loyal than a man. Meeting Miss Xi in this life is the greatest fortune for me. If Miss Xi didn’t mind me being her friend, how could I forget this friendship? “In the future, if there’s anything I can help you with, I hope that Miss Xi can help me. I will definitely give you a chance to repay you.”
“Thank you!” A smile appeared on Xi Sanmo’s face as he laughed maniacally in his heart.
It was as the eunuch said, the dinner was cooked by Xi Sanmo himself, but none of the dishes she cooked were related to Huo Li’s taste or taste. She knew who she belonged to and what she was doing.
Protecting Huo Li was the direction she had never deviated from!
The dinner was just finished. Susu was still cleaning up the table when Xiao Budian barged in.
Luo Shan’s face immediately flushed red like a deer that had been struck by its prey.
Chu Nantian was as calm as if he knew Xiao Budian would return.
His body instinctively tilted to the side to see if Huo Li was following behind Xiao Bufan.
However, when Xiao Budian saw the lively and warm scene in the room, he was unable to recover for a moment. He thought of his poor prince, who had been hanging around the palace for a whole day, yet was overjoyed.
Luo Shan, with her gentle and red face, seemed to like staying together with Chu Nantian a lot!
Because of his mixed feelings of resentment and jealousy, Xiao Budian did not want to stay any longer. He stood by the door and said coldly: “The Prince is accompanying the Young Wolf Lord in the palace. He might not be able to return home tonight. Seeing that Miss Xi has fully recovered, I can also report back to the Prince and let him feel at ease. ”
An uncertain feeling of nervousness welled up in Xi Sanmo’s heart, but he maintained a calm and gentle smile as he said, “Thank you for your trouble, General Xiao. Please remind the Prince not to work too hard. Be sure to pay attention to his health and rest well.”
“Farewell!” Xiao Budian didn’t get a word of explanation from Xi Sanmo. He cupped his hands and left in a bad mood.
Seeing this, Xi Sanmo looked at Luo Shan and smiled meaningfully, “Shan Shan, go send General Xiao off. We don’t know when you’ll be back again.”
“Miss, you …” Luo Shan’s face became even redder, and she was so embarrassed that she stomped her feet.
“Go quickly. If you don’t go now, you’ll be far away. “Besides, I just told you to send me off and didn’t say anything else. You always think too much.”
Chu Nantian was amused and laughed.
Luo Shan was too embarrassed to argue, but she could only stay to let them see a joke. With a stomp of her feet, she chased after them.
After leaving the courtyard, he intentionally walked into a remote forest path beside the main road. Luo Shan quickly chased after him and nervously called out in a soft voice: “Xiao Budian, wait a moment, I still have something to tell you.”
The light in the forest was very dim, and one could only vaguely see the outline of his opponent. Xiao Budian was extremely unhappy as he looked at her and said unhappily: “Other than chasing and hitting me everyday, other than shouting and shouting at me everyday, what else do you have to say to me? Luo Shan, Miss Xi is a person of the Prince. She can only marry the Prince in this lifetime. Even if Chu Nantian wanted to eat swan meat like a toad, he could only covet it. But you’re different. You can marry Chu Nantian at any time, not being able to be the legal wife, and you can also be the concubine. If you can give him a big fat brat, then you … ”
“Xiao Budian, you bastard, say it again. Do you believe that I won’t rip your mouth apart right now?” Luoshan never expected that Xiao Budian would say such harsh words. What happened to her and Chu Nantian? She could clearly count what they were saying with one hand.
Xiao Budian had his chest stuffed with vinegar and his mind had long been corroded by the sour smell. He said angrily: “You two are just like Dai Xing, do you dare to admit it?”
Luo Shan flew over in anger. She wanted to fight to the death with Xiao Budian, yet she dared to talk to her like that. She dared to talk to Xiao Budian like that. She was tired of living …
Perhaps it was due to the outburst of some ignorant emotion, or perhaps it was due to a man’s selfishness, but Xiao Budian no longer gave way to Luo Shan as before. He stretched out his hands and firmly grabbed both her arms.
Then he bent down and kissed her fiercely!
Luo Shan had yet to die, but she was instantly petrified. Her eyes turned round as her heart felt sweet and joyful. In fact, there was even a great humiliation. Oh god, oh god, how could Xiao Budian treat her like this?
Annoyed and ashamed, she was not in the mood to enjoy Xiao Budian’s infatuation. She only raised her right leg and viciously kicked Xiao Budian downwards.
When Xiao Budian heard this, he moved his legs and caught her legs. Due to his inexperience, he was forced to leave Luo Shan’s embrace.
Luoshan couldn’t pull back her legs, but she couldn’t push him away either. She was so angry that tears started to well up in her eyes as she looked at his vague outline. She choked with sobs, “If you hate me, then just tell me. Why do you have to humiliate me like this?! How am I going to go out and be a human from now on?”
Xiao Budian’s heart contracted. It was so painful that it hurt. He didn’t know how to explain his actions, so he could only loosen his grip on her bit by bit.
Holding back her tears, she said in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t come to find you to quarrel with you, nor did I come to fight with you. I just wanted to tell you that when you go back to the palace, don’t talk to the Duke about Miss Chu and Young Master Chu. With the size of the prince’s heart, he could not tolerate the fact that young miss was with Young Master Chu. But don’t doubt anything. I’ve been with them all day, and I can see that nothing has happened between them. Perhaps Young Master Chu had feelings for the young lady, but the young lady had always stopped her formalities and deeply remembered her status. I only came here to tell you these things. It’s better for the young lady and for the prince, but you did those things to me. Xiao Budian, I hate you, hate you to death, hate that I won’t see you again for the rest of my life. ”
As he watched her black figure leave, he could not, and in the end, was unwilling to, let her leave. He chased after her, grabbed Luo Shan’s right arm, and anxiously said: “Shan Shan, I … …. “I …”
“I” for a long time did not hear his words. Luoshan was so annoyed that she shook his hand away.
The more he shook her, the harder he held her. His heart was beating faster and faster and he even felt pain in his breath. In the end, he decided to give it his all and stammered, “Shan Shan …” Don’t get angry… I don’t know what’s wrong with me… I just can’t stand to see you standing by Chu Nantian’s side… My heart hurts… You’re always so mean to me… However, standing by his side … You look like a little bird that has fallen in love with a human… Shan Shan … I… I… I… “I …”
Me again, me, Luo Shan was annoyed, and she swung her arms again.
Xiao Budian was also worried, but he said it awkwardly: “I want to …” I have fallen in love with you… I can’t see you with another man… I think the Prince and Miss Xi… It was the same feeling … This was why he couldn’t bear to see Miss Xi and Young Master Chu together … Shan Shan … Don’t be afraid… I will be responsible to you… I’m going to ask the king… Let the prince give you to me as a wife … ”
Oh my god!
If the kiss from before could be said to have petrified Luo Shan on the spot, then it was as if she had been struck by lightning, causing her to split into pieces and regroup. Xiao Budian had said that he liked her, and Xiao Budian had said that his kiss was not frivolous, but because he liked her.
Oh my god!
Luoshan didn’t even know what she was feeling or how to describe it. She felt as if a little deer was bumping around inside her body, causing her pain and confusion. She wanted to stomp her foot and run away, but before she could stomp, she suddenly said, “I’m not even a person of the prince. What are you begging the prince for …”
After saying so, she regretted it immediately. She wished she could slap herself twice. She wanted to let the young miss know that the young miss would laugh at her again for not leaving a girl alive.
Xiao Budian, on the other hand, was overjoyed. He mustered the courage to hold her and happily said: “I know. I will first ask for Your Highness and then ask for Miss Xi. Shan Shan, don’t get too close to Chu Nantian, I don’t like it. I like the fact that you only have eyes for me. Even if you argue with me, fight with me, and keep fighting with me, I will still be happy. The prince was worried for Miss Xi in the palace for the whole day, and so I thought about you in the palace for the rest of the day. Thinking about what you’re doing now, thinking about whether you’re thinking about something crooked again, thinking about what you’re using for lunch, and thinking about whether you take good care of yourself when you’re taking care of Miss Xi. “Shan Shan …”
“Eunuch, be careful of your feet. We’re almost there!” When Xiao Budian was about to confess, a man’s voice suddenly came from outside the forest.
Xiao Budian and Luo Shan didn’t care about flirting. They both looked out from the gaps between the trees. Under the dim light of the lanterns, Xiao Budian was able to recognize the man who was called Eunuch. He was the Crown Prince’s personal eunuch.
“What is the Crown Prince’s eunuch doing here?” Luo Shan could not understand what was going on. She shook off Xiao Budian’s hand and walked out of the forest.
Xiao Budian could only follow him regretfully, but as soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard the eunuch hurriedly say: “There was an eunuch who went to report to the prince, but the prince was about to return to the palace. However, the young wolf leader refused to comply, so the two of them started to argue. The Young Wolf Lord was still speculating that Miss Xi had committed an immoral act at the mansion. However, the Prince was furious and started to fight with him. When the Crown Prince saw the situation, he sent his servant over to ask if it was convenient for Miss Xi to enter the palace to advise the Prince. You must know that the Young Wolf Lord is currently in the status of a negotiator. If he really falls under the command of the Prince, I’m afraid he will go to the Time Domain Congress and use it to force me to sign an unequal treaty. ”
After hearing what she said, Xi Sumo did not get angry nor worried. Instead, he looked at Chu Nantian and giggled. His eyes were filled with a profound light and no one knew what she was laughing about. Even Chu Nantian could not figure it out and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
However, Xi Sanmo knew that her smile was not on Huo Li, but on Chu Nantian!
Good, very good!
Thank you, Chu Nantian. Thank you for your company throughout the day. Thank you for finally allowing me to understand everything.
Good, it’s actually a battle between experts, it’s actually a strong combo, then I can’t be too weak!
Xi Sumo smiled at Chu Nantian for a long time. Then, he stood up and walked to the desk in front of him, took out a pen and ink and wrote while saying, “I am the prince’s man but the prince doesn’t believe me time and time again. If he trusts me, he would not have a conflict with the Young Wolf Lord. I explained and promised again and again, but it all went down the drain, so what was the point of insisting. Eunuch, all these words I wish to say to the Prince are all written in this letter, and you can take them back to the Prince. After Prince has seen it, he will decide whether or not it is compatible with me. “
