Chapter 64: Answering the Question
"Toileting?" Zixi raised her eyebrows, "How long have you been there?" β
Chu Chen didn't know how to answer, how could Zixi ask such a private question so calmly?
How long can I go to the toilet?
It can't be longer than him going out to kill someone and going to the eldest princess for a walk.
But Chu Chen couldn't figure out how much Zixi already knew, so he didn't dare to answer rashly for a while, and said hesitantly: "It won't be long......"
I thought to myself, if she had just come over, she would probably be able to get away with it.
But when Chu Chen's gaze fell on Zixi's night clothes, this naΓ―ve idea was instantly shattered.
Need to wear a night walk when you come into his house?
Sighing, he said to Mo Shu, "You go out first." β
Mo Shu bowed and retired with great guilt, feeling that he had not done the master's affairs well tonight, and he was a little shameless to face the master.
Chu Chen looked at Zixi silently, paused, and said in a low voice, "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" β
So, is it possible that the person who followed him just now was Zixi?
Not right either.
When he returned to Xichen Courtyard, the person who was following him was still clearly behind him, and it was unlikely that he would quietly enter the house under his nose, but he didn't see it, right?
Thinking like this, Chu Chen couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows.
Zixi sat down on the edge of the bed and said lightly, "Where did you go?" β
Chu Chen raised his eyes to look at her and sighed in his heart.
Look, Zixi is really not an ordinary foolish woman, and she doesn't believe his excuse to go to the toilet at all.
"If it's going to the toilet, how can you smell like flowers?" Zixi raised her eyebrows slowly, with an inexplicable smile on her lips, "Could it be that you solved it in the garden?" β
The corners of Chu Chen's mouth twitched: "......"
Your Majesty, how can you ask such a question, not only as a fifteen-year-old girl, but also as the king of a country?
But the floral scent?
Chu Chen sniffed his body, but he didn't smell any fragrance.
He didn't know how Zixi smelled it.
"I have some personal business to do, so I just went out." Chu Chen had to explain honestly, and after speaking, he looked at Zixi with an inquiring look, "It seems that someone was following me just now, Zixi, who do you think it will be?" β
"Someone stalking you?" Zixi was surprised, "So, the news that you are pretending to be sick has been known?" β
This reaction ...... Chu Chen's heart suddenly had a bottom.
With his mouth furrowed, he looked at the black night clothes on Zixi's body: "Why are you wearing this clothes?" β
They've been answering questions.
Zixi was silent for a moment, reached out and pulled up the futon to cover his shoulder, and said lightly: "I don't want to be an official with you, Chu Chen, you'd better be honest." β
Chu Chen was silent.
"If you don't want to tell the truth, I don't plan to act with you anymore." Zixi stood up and looked at him with a light gaze, "Tomorrow morning, I will find a place to live again, whether it is day or night in the future, I will not care about you wherever you like." β
After speaking, she added unhurriedly: "Although you have been a companion in Tangling, in the final analysis, you are a powerful person in Xiling, so there is no need to take me in your eyes." β
For Chu Chen, these words were tantamount to a sharp knife piercing his heart.
His face turned pale, and he was about to speak, but he saw Zixi turn around and want to leave.
"Zixi!" He hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed Zixi's hand stiffly, "Didn't I say it's okay?" You are not allowed to go. β
