Chapter 180: Intentional Stimulation
Blinking to hide the pain in his eyes, Chu Hongze forced himself to pretend to be indifferent and said, "Why does Prince Mu ask this king? It's the two of you who are married, and you can decide for yourselves, this king...... Now he's just an outsider, and he doesn't have the qualifications to intervene. ”
"Oh? Let this prince decide for himself? Hmm......" The corners of Mu Zirong's lips hooked a faint arc, and then he hesitated and slowly came to Wen Ruyi's side, his eyes roamed back and forth on her body, looking her up and down, and the owner of the ready-to-wear shop who was measuring Wen Ruyi's size with a ruler stopped what he was doing when he saw this, and then saluted him respectfully.
Mu Zirong waved his hand to signal that he didn't have to be polite, and a pair of hands naturally fell on Wen Ruyi's willow waist, letting her turn her back to the owner of the ready-to-wear shop, and even more so to Chu Hongze, "Ruyi, your collar is a little loose, let this prince help you tidy." ”
In fact, what kind of collar is loose? It's just that Mu Zirong wants to take this opportunity to anger Chu Hongze.
When the owner of the ready-to-wear shop measured Wen Ruyi's size, he had been moving his hands and feet beside him, and the party Wen Ruyi was simply suffering, and the bystander Chu Hongze's eyes were split, and the anger in his heart was about to burn him out.
At this time, Wen Ruyi had already turned to face Chu Hongze, and naturally saw his jealous appearance, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, she tilted her head to avoid Mu Zirong's touch, her bright eyes were a little annoyed, and she lowered her voice and said, "Mu Zirong, what are you doing?" Don't go too far! ”
"Oh? Am I going too far? It's just a measure for you. Mu Zirong, who looked innocent, snatched the ruler in the hand of the owner of the garment shop, and personally helped her measure it, he measured it, and glanced at Chu Hongze, and his proud look made Chu Hongze hate to break his body into thousands of pieces with his own hands.
Qi Lao pressed his shoulder in time, exerted strength into his palm to stop him, and whispered in his ear to dissuade, "Disciple, don't be reckless!" ”
The movement of their words was light and light, and it was not noticed by Mu Zirong, but Wen Ruyi saw their conversation, although she didn't know the content of the conversation, but seeing that Chu Hongze's originally excited emotions slowly calmed down, she guessed that it was Qi Lao who spoke to comfort him, fortunately, Qi Lao was here to suppress the formation, otherwise I don't know what kind of situation things will become.
"Okay, just let the boss come, Prince Mu, don't make a mess, but it will delay the time of the boss later, and it will not be good if you can't make it out when the time comes." couldn't bear to see Chu Hongze uncomfortable, Wen Ruyi casually took away the ruler in Mu Zirong's hand, and then stuffed it back into the hands of the owner of the ready-to-wear shop, and talked about the rush of the wedding dress.
Mu Zirong, who had successfully achieved his goal, naturally did not exert any effort to keep the soft ruler, and let Wen Ruyi take it away, and what Wen Ruyi said just now made sense, the wedding date was very rushed, and it was even more urgent to make wedding clothes, he didn't want to mess up his big wedding.
And the owner of the ready-to-wear shop who took back the ruler also involuntarily wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and then trembled and measured the size for Wen Ruyi, and his head hung deeply and did not dare to raise it.
These big families are in the affairs of their families, where do they dare to get involved with such small people? Not to mention, this is still the royal family, he really regrets why he came here in person in order to please Prince Mu, he should have found a master to come over, what a mistake......
The next time was very quiet, no one spoke again, the owner of the ready-to-wear shop measured the size at the fastest speed in his life, and carefully recorded it, and then quickly put away his tools, clasped his fists at Mu Zirong and Wen Ruyi, and asked in a trembling voice: "Prince, princess, look at the selection of this fabric pattern, this is ......"
Mu Zirong glanced at Wen Ruyi, his eyes became deeper and deeper, "Ruyi, you say, which color do you like?" ”
Wen Ruyi just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible at this time, where did he still have the heart to choose fabrics, so he just lowered his head and said, "Whatever, just leave it to you, I believe in your vision." ”
This sentence seemed to be unintentional, but it added a knife to Chu Hongze's heart, and the proud Mu Zirong glanced at Chu Hongze in a show-off manner, and pulled the owner of the ready-to-wear shop to the side to choose the fabric to make the wedding dress.
Wen Ruyi, who was free, glanced at Chu Hongze in the air, and both saw the forbearance in each other's eyes, as well as the deep reluctance, and the hidden imperceptible resentment, but more helplessly.
Wen Ruyi felt angry and impatient about what he had done, while Chu Hongze hated himself for not being able to take away Ruyi's uselessness, and hated Mu Zirong's villainous behavior.
Not long after their eyes met, Wen Ruyi took the first step to look away, she was afraid that if she looked at it again, she would uncontrollably leave with him regardless of it.
The atmosphere in the air became more and more tense, and in order to leave this place of right and wrong, Wen Ruyi came to Mu Zirong and pulled him.
Mu Zirong, who was originally carefully selecting the style of the wedding dress, looked at it and was a little puzzled, "Ruyi, what's wrong?" ”
"I ...... I feel a bit of a headache and want to go back and get some rest. Raising his hand to touch his forehead, Wen Ruyi replied pretending to be weak.
She understands that as long as she stays in this room, Mu Zirong and Chu Hongze will inevitably quarrel, and now there is no problem with Qi Lao suppressing it for the time being, if Mu Zirong does something to stimulate Chu Hongze, even Qi Lao can't hold it down? The only thing she could do was get out of here.
"Is it uncomfortable?" Mu Zirong raised his head and found that Wen Ruyi's face was indeed a little bad, so he put down the fabric in his hand and asked with concern.
Chu Hongze, who was sitting at the table, also heard her words, and a trace of worry couldn't help flashing through his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
The reason why his face was so bad was because he was angry, and he was angry that Mu Zirong deliberately made an intimate move in front of Chu Hongze, and he was also a little depressed caused by upset.
However, Mu Zirong didn't know the real reason for Wen Ruyi's poor face, he thought that Wen Ruyi really had a headache, because Wen Ruyi also said that he was uncomfortable last time, so he hurriedly called the maid at the door, and then immediately ordered, "Quick, take the princess back to the room to rest, and then ask a royal doctor to go to the princess's room to show her, remember to take good care of the princess, otherwise the princess will ask you if there is any discomfort in the princess." ”
"Yes, Prince!" As soon as the maid heard this, she immediately knelt down, and her face was full of fear.
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Wen Ruyi again, and explained softly, "Ruyi, you go back first to rest and recuperate, our wedding day is coming soon, you have to take care of yourself." His voice sounded so sincere and concerned, but Wen Ruyi, who was anxious to leave at this time, directly ignored it, and was unmoved, everything he had done to Chu Hongze before wiped out the only little good feeling in her heart.
With Mu Zirong's answer, Wen Ruyi bowed slightly, then handed his hand to the maid, and left the hall with them.
After Wen Ruyi left, not long after the owner of the ready-to-wear shop also left, Mu Zirong directly said to him, "We want all the fabrics, and we will go to the account office to get the money in a while", which means that there is no need to choose.
After the irrelevant people left, the smile on Mu Zirong's face slowly cooled down, he came to Chu Hongze's face, picked up a teacup that had not been used, took a sip, and suddenly laughed, "I wanted to ask King Rui to help today, but I didn't expect King Rui to laugh." ”
This sentence has no beginning and no end, and anyone who hears it will feel strange, but Chu Hongze can hear the meaning behind his words, this guy is still showing off, showing off that he can choose a dress with Wen Ruyi, showing off that they can legitimately be so close, showing off that he is about to be able to marry Wen Ruyi!
"Heh, Prince Mu is too worried, Ruyi she has always been like this, and she doesn't care about these false names." Coldly hooked the corners of his lips, Chu Hongze also replied with a smile, the implication of his words is that I have long understood Wen Ruyi's character, and you are a little more tender than me.
The confrontation between the two was like a flash of lightning, Mu Zirong and Chu Hongze were not convinced, their eyes met in the air, as if they could hear the sparkling "crackling", and even the air seemed to be about to condense.
Staring at Mu Zirong for a long time, Chu Hongze took the lead in speaking: "However, I don't know what the intention of Prince Mu to invite this king is?" Is it up to you and Ruyi to choose a wedding dress? ”
"Oh, of course not." Mu Zirong raised his eyebrows, still with a shallow smile on his face, "This prince invited King Rui to come today, just to care about the prince's physical condition, I heard that the prince was ill that day, so he didn't come to the banquet, this prince is still very worried, the prince is now a distinguished guest of our country, do you want to find a royal doctor to show the prince?" ”
Mu Zirong's yin and yang strange words made Chu Hongze's chest rise and fall even more intense, and it was Qi Lao on the side who kept pressing him, so he didn't have a seizure on the spot.
However, his face was still quite ugly, and at first glance, he knew that he must be holding his breath in his heart.
Mu Zirong saw that his goal today had been achieved, so he took the initiative to invite Chu Hongze and Qi Lao away, "Since the two of you are fine, then the prince will not keep you, please take care of yourself." ”
With such an obvious drive away, Chu Hongze could of course see that he didn't want to stay any longer, "Farewell!" He said coldly and walked away.
Qi Lao also said "goodbye" to Mu Zirong, and then followed Chu Hongze's footsteps and left, he had to follow and take a look, otherwise he would be in trouble if he did something unimaginable on impulse.
