Chapter 1016 - 1018_1
The two guards at the door looked at each other, unsure whether they should follow the Commandery Princess’s orders.
"Hey, I’m talking to you, why aren’t you moving?" Dongyang urged them again when she saw they were motionless, "Hurry up, hurry up!"
"Grab a few more of these sweet gourds, I like them the most, so sweet and refreshing." She was referring to sugarcane, which was called sweet gourd in their region.
Seeing that Mu Shaoling remained silent, she kept urging nonstop, and the guards had no choice but to resign themselves to move the stuff.
Then the people of the Mu Residence discovered that guards kept coming out of the young master’s room, one trip after another, and each time their hands were filled with various items.
Finally, when about half of the items on the ground had been moved by her, Commandery Princess Dongyang clapped her hands, feeling it was about enough.
And Mu Shaoling’s expression darkened a shade as she moved the stuff away.
"Mu Shaoling, don’t be so stingy now, I’m not a stranger after all, using your belongings is only right," Seeing his unchanged expression, Commandery Princess Dongyang stepped forward and said a few words, she even wanted to pat his shoulder, but he dodged.
What kind of logic is that, if you’re not a stranger, then who are you? How is it right for you to use my things? The Emperor allowed you to stay at my place, he never said you could rob me, did he?
Perhaps sensing what Mu Shaoling was muttering about, she explained further, "I am bound to become your wife, it’s just a matter of time. So me using your things now is just exercising the rights I’ll have as your wife in advance. So don’t be too hung up on it, just get used to the idea."
"I will not marry you! I don’t like you!" Mu Shaoling repeated these two lines upon hearing her words. This girl really had a skin as thick as a shoe sole. Where did she get the confidence that he would marry her?
As soon as Commandery Princess Dongyang heard these words again, she waved her hand impatiently, "Can’t you say something else? It’s always ’I will not marry you,’ ’I don’t like you.’ I’ve heard these lines eighty times already. Can’t you be done with it?"
"Say something else?" Mu Shaoling glanced at her and then said, "Oh, you will not marry me, I find you somewhat annoying!"
Tsk tsk, isn’t that the same thing? Disliking is hating, me not marrying is you not getting married, right?
Mu Shaoling felt he was truly too clever.
"You... you..." Commandery Princess Dongyang stood up with a thud, "I’m telling you, no matter what you say, I will not give up. And I’ve already spoken to the Emperor about it. I said I want to marry you, and the Emperor supports me. He even said that if you don’t agree in the end, he’ll grant us a marriage decree. So, you’re destined to marry me! Be smart and don’t struggle, start learning to accept this Commandery Princess’s pursuit now!"
Saying that, she ignored Mu Shaoling’s astonishment and ran out. But just as she reached the courtyard door, she felt that Mu Shaoling was too stubborn and this approach wasn’t making any progress, deciding she needed to take some measures. So she ran back thudding again.
Seeing Mu Shaoling with his head down drinking tea, deep in thought, she suddenly ran over, "Mu Shaoling!"
Mu Shaoling looked up, puzzled, wondering why she had returned.
A sly glint flashed in Commandery Princess Dongyang’s eyes; she tugged the corner of her mouth, then suddenly cupped Mu Shaoling’s face and pressed her lips against his.
"Hmm, now that we have had the touch of the skin, and the Emperor’s words to mediate, you dare not marry me!"
Commandery Princess Dongyang clapped her hands and left. Leaving behind a disheveled Mu Shaoling in the wind. So? Was he just forcibly kissed?
