Zombie Prince, Killer Concubine - C65
If it was before, Lin Zhaojun would definitely not take responsibility for this, she was never willing to suffer for it, and no one could wrong her, but after being together with Pretty Zombie for such a long time, it was impossible for her to ignore the matters of the Pretty Zombie.
Regarding the matter of using a substitute marriage to steal the Profound Sky Mirror, Lin Zhaojun could not reject it. It was not that she had no other choice, it was just that she was afraid of the consequences of her choice, she did not want anything to happen to the Pretty Zombie.
Therefore, Lin Zhaojun could only show his expression to Hua Xuming, and did not repeatedly emphasize that she did not want to do it!
Hua Xuming naturally understood Lin Zhaojun’s thoughts, and was not angry at Lin Zhaojun’s smelly face. After all, she was the winner, right?
Lin Zhaojun helping Xie Silee in her marriage was already a certain thing, but Hua Xuming was in no hurry to make any requests of her, it would be easy for her to dislike him if he was forced too tightly, thus, Hua Xuming did not stay in the Xie Residence for long.
After Hua Xuming left, Madam Xie brought five female servants who were carrying boxes of food in.
“You … “Li …”
Madam Xie originally wanted to ask for Lin Zhaojun’s name, but thought that she was here as a substitute for her daughter, so logically, she should be calling “Lee” just like how she normally was, only, she wasn’t her “Lee”, so she swallowed the “Lee” back down her throat.
“…” “Young lady, it’s time to eat. I believe you are hungry too. I ordered the kitchen to prepare some food for you. I don’t know what your taste is like. You can eat first.”
The Madam Xie then asked the servants to place the food on the table one by one, and said: “You can tell me the things you love to eat and the things you don’t, and I will tell the people below to pay more attention to them!”
Lin Zhaojun glanced at the food on the table. It was exquisite, just a little too light! She picked up the chopsticks and ate a few mouthfuls. She couldn’t help but frown. Wasn’t it a bit too dull?
Therefore, without holding back, he said to the Madam Xie: “My tastes are heavier, and I like to eat fragrant and spicy things. The things you guys have here are too light, and it’s fine to eat them once or twice.
“Alright, I will immediately send someone to look for another chef!” What other requests do you have? Just say it! ”
“I haven’t thought of it at the moment. I’ll tell you when I remember!”
Lin Zhaojun was originally angry at that fellow Hua Xuming. However, when she heard the words of the Madam Xie, she was slightly unhappy in her heart.
In truth, how could Lin Zhaojun not know that Madam Xie was just trying to curry favor with sher? Thus, on the surface, he did not show it, but she still put on her stinky face, causing Madam Xie to not know how to respond.
After a quick meal, Lin Zhaojun suggested that they should take a nap, and told others to not disturb him, and did not care about Madam Xie who still wanted to chat with her, and fell asleep immediately. Madam Xie had nothing to say, and could only bring her maidservants away.
Lin Zhaojun slept until sunset. When she woke up, there was no one by her side. The room was a little dark, so Lin Zhaojun ungracefully stretched her back and slowly regained her senses.
Ever since she brought Pretty Zombie to Dark Night Dynasty to search for the Nine Reincarnation Soul Pill, she became anxious and worried all day and didn’t have a good night’s sleep. Today, however, she had a beautiful sleep.
Lin Zhaojun slowly walked out of Xie Silee’s room, sizing up the scene outside as she let her imagination run wild.
This Xie Silee was truly a strange person, the main host actually allowed her own room to be reserved for a fake, yet she went somewhere else!
When Lin Zhaojun strolled into the Xie Clan’s small garden, discovering that Madam Xie and a group of little girls were packing up a bunch of bright red things, Lin Zhaojun politely asked, “What are you busy with?”
Madam Xie said somewhat embarrassedly: This is your dowry, it’s almost done. I see that the weather isn’t bad today, so I ordered some people to wash them and dry them.
Seeing Lin Zhaojun’s face that was darker than charcoal, Madam Xie’s voice became softer and softer. Madam Xie really didn’t know how she had provoked Lin Zhaojun.
Lin Zhaojun thought, there really was no weirdest thing, only even weirder things! She had thought that the Madam Xie loved her daughter so much before!
Originally, Lin Zhaojun had held great sympathy for Xie Silee being taken away by the Bright Moon Kingdom like a spoil of war. However, when she saw how Madam Xie acted, she felt even more heartbroken for him.
After all, compared to the benefits of a nation and a family, even if she, Xie Silee, was the famous First Talented Girl of the Dark Night, she would still not be able to escape the fate of being manipulated!
How could Lin Zhaojun know? Hua Xuming had only told the Xie Clan’s people that Lin Zhaojun wanted to take Xie Silee’s place as her concubine and marry him off as’s concubine. She did not say that Lin Zhaojun still had other tasks on her person.
Although he was glad that his daughter did not have to marry into the Savage Land, he felt extremely guilty towards Lin Zhaojun who wanted to betroth his daughter to him. Therefore, he did his best to give her some dowry, hoping that her life wouldn’t be too difficult after marrying into the Bright Moon Kingdom.
The maidservants had already packed their things. A tall maidservant came over and asked the Madam Xie: “Madam, the master had someone reply to tell them that they won’t be back for dinner tonight. He said not to wait for him!”
“Mm, got it. You can go down first!” Madam Xie said to the servant girl, then turned to Lin Zhaojun and said, “If Miss doesn’t mind, why don’t you come eat with me?”
Lin Zhaojun expressed that it didn’t matter. She was very bored anyways, it was good to have someone to accompany him.
Although Lin Zhaojun and Madam Xie were eating together, they were actually eating on their own at the same table. The dishes on the Madam Xie’s side were all in a different color, making Lin Zhaojun have no appetite at all.
After dinner, the servants brought out the teacups for the Madam Xie and Lin Zhaojun. Lin Zhaojun was just about to say that she had just eaten her meal and did not want to drink tea, but seeing that the Madam Xie took the teacups and took a sip of tea, another servant brought a blue and white spittoon-like porcelain vase over to her. The Madam Xie used a handkerchief to cover her mouth and spat the tea out from her mouth onto the porcelain and used a handkerchief to wipe her lips.
Lin Zhaojun was a little surprised at how exquisite Dark Night Dynasty’s life was, but after thinking about it, the richness of the night meant that the citizens here liked to mess around, and had the ability to do so.
In order to not be laughed at by others, Lin Zhaojun did as she was told.
