Chapter 1291 - 171. Drawing Lots (Second Update)
After tormenting Dong Qing thoroughly, Xia Zheng reluctantly pushed him aside and casually glanced around the room, stopping his gaze on the pile of clothes.
Those clothes were prepared for the young girls in the hall, and Lin Yuan had specifically instructed that no one else was to see them. She even sent Shui Xian personally with the design drawings.
Looking at the hall and then the clothes in front of him, Xia Zheng suddenly felt an itch of curiosity.
As he had said to Dong Qing, it wasn’t that he was lascivious and wanted to see those young girls, but he was indeed curious about what Lin Yuan was up to.
After a long struggle, just as Xia Zheng stood up to open the bundle and see what the clothes looked like, Shui Xian and Yin Xing quickly walked in.
Xia Zheng hurriedly picked himself up from beside the pile of clothes and strolled away as if nothing had happened.
Shui Xian and Yin Xing bowed to him and then left with the large bundle, not sparing Xia Zheng another glance during the entire process.
"Really, biting the hand that feeds! When I was at the General’s Mansion, which maid didn’t scurry around attentively when they saw me? How come they treat me like thin air once they’re with Yuanyuan?" Fuming, Xia Zheng angrily fanned himself with his hand as he sat back down.
Dong Qing rubbed his ears and cautiously sneaked a peek at Xia Zheng, sensing something different about him today, as if he were jealous. But since Lin Yuan was only around women, why would he be jealous?
Xia Zheng was indeed feeling jealous, but it wasn’t about people; it was because Lin Yuan didn’t tell him about this.
"Hmm, not bad, distribute these clothes to everyone." Lin Yuan carefully inspected the clothes, then had Shui Xian and Yin Xing give them to little girls to try on.
