My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!

Chapter 404 - 176: That Guy Actually Has a Crush on Her (2)



On the purple sandalwood candle holder, the candle flame flickered slightly, and white smoke wafted from the incense burner, emitting a faint fragrance.

Behind layers of beaded curtains and gauze, Mo Zhaozhao, who had just taken a meticulous bath, was lying naked on the couch. Several maids were carefully applying a box of milky-white cream onto her body.

This cream was specially formulated by the Imperial Physician for Concubines and Princesses as a skin care treatment.

Applied to the body, it not only made the skin fragrant, soft, and smooth but also inhibited hair growth and pigmentation.

Neck, fragrant shoulders, chest, back, round buttocks, legs, jade feet...

Not a single spot was missed from top to bottom.

The most noble Princess of Da Wu Country had been meticulously nurtured since childhood.

"Princess, I heard from the guards in the mansion that a thief seems to have broken in recently. I wonder which daring thief would sneak into the Princess Mansion unafraid of being executed with his entire clan..."

Nanny Zhou stood nearby, nagging about the strange happenings in the mansion.

And Mo Zhaozhao, upon hearing her words, immediately snapped out of her drowsiness, a trace of panic quickly flashing through her eyes.

The thief Nanny spoke of, could it possibly be Yun Wanye?

Thinking about how frequently he had been visiting her mansion lately, Mo Zhaozhao couldn’t help feeling guilty.

That damned guy, didn’t he confidently assure her that nobody would discover him?

So what’s happening now?

No, no, no, she should be confident; the thief Nanny mentioned must be that guy.

With such strict guards at the mansion, coupled with her high status, who else but him would dare to come?

"Princess?"

Suddenly, she heard Nanny Zhou calling her, and Mo Zhaozhao snapped back to reality, turning her bewildered gaze toward her.

"What is it, Nanny?"

"Princess, what do you think of my suggestion?"

Suggestion?

Did Nanny suggest something?

Mo Zhaozhao inwardly groaned. Nanny must have said something else, but she was too deep in thought to hear it.

She recovered and lightly coughed to disguise her embarrassment.

"I was a bit sleepy just now and didn’t catch what you said, Nanny. Could you repeat it?"

Hearing this, Nanny instinctively thought she had inopportunely disturbed the Princess’s nap and immediately bowed her head to apologize.

"It’s no matter; I’m not sleepy now. Continue, Nanny."

Mo Zhaozhao rested her chin on her fair arm and softly said.

"Yes, Princess, I think that since there’s a thief in the mansion, it indicates a significant issue with the security, which needs strengthening."

"Especially the Princess’s courtyard. For the sake of the Princess’s safety, we should assign more guards."

After hearing Nanny’s words, Mo Zhaozhao pondered seriously for a moment, then a meaningful smile graced her lips.

"Alright, Nanny, arrange it tomorrow. If there are not enough people, you can go to the palace to find my elder brother."

Since that guy wasn’t discreet enough and got noticed, he deserves a lesson.

Once the cream was applied, the maids assisted Mo Zhaozhao in putting on her nightwear and used another cream to care for her black hair.

Unlike the cream on the body that inhibited hair growth, the hair cream made the hair smooth, shiny, and lush black.

Moreover, it also had a faint floral fragrance similar to the body’s cream, which was quite pleasant.

From her hair to her heels, the Princess was well-groomed.

Once everything was done, Mo Zhaozhao languidly lay on the bed yawning.

The maids deftly tidied up the mess, adjusted the red candle, placed a shade on the lamp, extinguished the incense, and then left quietly together.

Next to the main hall and separated by a wall was the side hall where the maids kept watch overnight.

As the doors pushed open and closed, Mo Zhaozhao gazed at the thin gauze and couldn’t help but let her thoughts wander, her lips unknowingly curling up.

These days, that rascal seemed like a different person, being very attentive to her.

He no longer bickered with her or spoke harshly but instead praised her in various ways, and each time he came, he brought personally chosen gifts.

At first, she found it strange, almost suspecting an imposter had replaced him.

But as she got to know him better, she realized he was still the same, just had a change of heart.

Though unaccustomed to his change, she couldn’t deny that his obvious attempts to woo and please her were quite satisfying.

That guy had romantic feelings for her—since when?

If he liked her, why did he always bully her before?

"Alas..."

As she thought about this, Mo Zhaozhao couldn’t help but sigh.

That guy hadn’t come today at all, and truth be told, she missed him and wanted to see him.

Hmph, that guy promised he’d come to see her every day. If he doesn’t keep his promise today, she’ll never see him again.

"Huh, why does the Princess look unhappy? Who upset you? Tell me, and I’ll help vent your anger."

A mischievous voice reached her ear, and Mo Zhaozhao looked up to see a stunningly handsome young man leaning against her bedpost, arms crossed, looking down at her with a wicked smile.

Just as she thought of him, he appeared???

Mo Zhaozhao blinked, confirmed it wasn’t an illusion, and then shot up from the bed, her eyes wide with curiosity.

"Yun Wanye, can you transform? I didn’t hear a sound; how did you get in?"

The windows were closed, the hall door was shut, and opening either would make noise.

With Hidden Guards standing watch above the hall each time, Mo Zhaozhao eagerly wondered how he managed to enter.

But no matter how often she asked, he always kept his lips sealed, revealing nothing.
