BXBX NOVEL Chapter 102 - 102: Madam, Have You Come to Look for Me?
“Your Highness, Prince Kang, do you still remember me?”
A hint of helplessness appeared in Bai Xianyu’s eyes when she saw Ji Shuang hugging the young lady’s waist. However, she also walked forward and stood silently beside Ji Shuang.
Prince Kang narrowed his eyes. “Ji Shuang?”
Ji Shuang smiled insincerely and went straight to the point. “I think your maidservant looks like a friend of mine. It can be considered fate. Why don’t you give her to me directly?”
Prince Kang’s gaze was like a poisonous snake, clinging to the young lady. “Her status is low, how could she be your friend?”
Bai Xianyu smiled. “Why do you say that, Your Highness? Since she’s Ji Shuang’s friend, she’s also my friend.”
Prince Kang’s gaze shifted to Bai Xianyu, but it was immediately blocked by Ji Shuang.
“Your Highness, are you unwilling to part with your love?”
Prince Kang looked impatient.
However, when he thought of the rebel Prince Pingnan and the General’s Manor in the capital, he moved his lips and said indifferently, “Alright. Since you like her, I’ll give her to you.”
Ji Shuang thanked him expressionlessly and pulled Bai Xianyu away.
Bai Yu’er also saw the two of them approach Prince Kang. In particular, the woman in black was especially arrogant. She even dared to speak like that in front of the prince.
Then, the people around could be heard talking.
“Ji Shuang is still as lawless as ever.”
“That’s Prince Pingnan’s treasure. She’s been spoiled since she was young. 1 heard that she even beat up the Third Prince when she was young… In the end, she only apologized to him perfunctorily.”
“Prince Pingnan is one of the few princes with a different surname. His army, Ghost’s Worry, has always been invincible. It’s said that they have 200,000 soldiers. If I were his only granddaughter, 1 would be even more arrogant than her.”
“She and Bai Xianyu are like biological sisters.”
Bai Yu’er was envious and jealous. If she had stayed in the capital a few years ago, she might have made a friend like Ji Shuang.
After taking the person away, Bai Xianyu and Ji Shuang left the banquet early and sent the young lady back together.
The young lady and her husband thanked them with tears in their eyes.
“Thank you, living Bodhisattvas. 1 can’t thank you enough…”
“It’s all thanks to the two ladies’ help. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do…”
Ji Shuang helped them up. “You don’t have to thank me. If you really want to thank me, give me more when 1 buy lotus crisps in the future.”
The young lady nodded repeatedly. “Not to mention giving them to you, Miss, 1 can make as much as you want.”
Bai Xianyu could not help but think that although the capital under Emperor Wu Xuan looked extremely prosperous on the surface, there were actually signs of decline on the inside.
After leaving the stall, Ji Shuang brought Bai Xianyu to the Drunken Fragrance Restaurant with a faint smile on her lips. “Little Yu, we haven’t seen each other for a long time. How about drinking some wine to celebrate?”
Bai Xianyu smiled and nodded. “You didn’t bring any guards out. I’ll send you back to your residence later.”
Ji Shuang waved her hand nonchalantly and entered a private room. She ordered a few dishes and wine. “No need. They might not even be able to beat me.”
Bai Xianyu propped up her chin and looked at her with a smile.
At this moment, a familiar voice sounded.
“Waiter, give me two more pots of wine.”
“Alright, guest!”
Bai Xianyu’s smile faltered. She turned around and saw Xiao Zheng standing in front of her.
Ji Shuang was curious. “Little Yu, what are you looking at?”
Xiao Zheng heard her voice.
He glanced around and saw Bai Xianyu looking at him. His heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously looked in the other direction.
Bai Xianyu followed his movements and looked over. Her gaze stopped on Xie Xingyun, who was leaning against the railing.
He was wearing a golden silk robe with auspicious clouds embroidered on it. His thick crow eyelashes were lowered and moved slightly. His extremely handsome face was flushed red. It swept across his Adam’s apple, and even his two collar bones were red. The hot red color spread all the way to his inner lining.
His slender and bony hands held the wine bowl lazily, and his thin lips were as red as blood.
The table was full of empty wine jars.
Opposite him… was a brocade pouch.
It was hers.
Bai Xianyu was stunned for a moment.
“Who is this? He looks familiar.” Ji Shuang narrowed her eyes and sized up the two of them.
Bai Xianyu came back to her senses. “It’s the Young Marquis of the Northern Garrison.”
“Now that you mention it, I do have some impression of him. He was quite handsome. What was his name again?”
“Xie Xingyun.”
The drunk man’s wrist stiffened, and he slowly raised his eyelids. The world in front of him spun and blurred, and that girl in the white dress was like a beam of light.
It was also like a sweet spring that could relieve the bitterness in his heart.
The remnants of the wine were like a fire, burning his throat.
He so… longed for her.
Xiao Zheng was about to put the two pots of wine on the table when he saw Xie Xingyun suddenly stand up and push him away.
Xiao Zheng protected the wine and was stunned for a second.
Bai Xianyu retracted her gaze and did not look at him again until Ji Shuang suddenly stood up, grabbed her wrist, and pulled hard.
Bai Xianyu was not as strong as Ji Shuang. She stumbled and was yanked up, but in the next second, her slender waist was tightly hugged by a pair of iron arms. The man’s chest behind her was as hot as a branding iron.
She was stunned. The next second, Ji Shuang’s hand was opened.
Seeing this, Xiao Zheng immediately started to chase the people on the second floor down.
Fortunately, Fifth Miss Bai’s private room was more hidden.
“Let go of her…” Ji Shuang pulled out her sword and pointed it at Xie Xingyun. She sneered and said, “Don’t think that you can do anything just because you’re a member of the royal family.”
His breathing was heavy, and his hot breath came close to Bai Xianyu. His tall nose rubbed against her face and slender neck, and his lips brushed past her.
Bai Xianyu’s body went numb, and the tips of her ears instantly turned so red that blood could drip.
She wanted to push his hand away, but he did not move at all. She bit her lip and said, “Xie Xingyun, you’re drunk. Let go of me!”
Ji Shuang was furious and thrust her sword over.
Xie Xingyun picked up the girl with one hand and actually caught her sword with his hand. Dark red blood immediately flowed down the wound on his palm and dripped to the ground.
Bai Xianyu was shocked. Ji Shuang still wanted to move, but Xiao Zheng blocked her with his sword.
“Miss, you can’t!”
However, at this chaotic moment, Xie Xingyun suddenly lowered his head and bit Bai Xianyu’s earlobe. His voice was like a mosquito’s whisper, and he was drunk. “Wife… have you come to look for me?”
“Hooligan! Who are you calling Wife?” Ji Shuang gritted her teeth and fought with Xiao Zheng, but she still heard his words clearly.
Bai Xianyu was tightly restrained by him. “Sober up!”
Xie Xingyun actually smiled, as if he did not listen to her. He said to himself, “I’m not drinking anymore. Take me home.”
Bai Xianyu was speechless, she pounded and hit his hands.
Unmoved, he lowered his head and sniffed her collarbone lightly.
“All right?”
“No!”
“All right?”
He asked over and over again, his voice getting softer, and more difficult to understand. “Take me home, Little Yu..”
