Novel Bin Chapter 14
„Are you feeling ill? Why is your complexion so bad?“ Qu Tang´er slightly raised her head, with a worried expression watched Yi Xiangnong. She grasped the time perfectly. As she just slightly raised her head, she happened to see that Yi Xiangnong was exactly in the process of changing her facial expression.
„Jiejie is joking, right? Isn´t this newly brewed tea?“ No wonder the tea was cold.
„It´s not.“ Qu Tang´er lightly smiled while shaking head. She had a little potential to became a demon. She understood that a pot of overnight tea meant nothing in essence. However, if she let a woman, who lived whole life in opulence drink it, then it obviously couldn´t be expressed by if she was alright or not but rather by if she felt sick or not.
Someone came to annoy her. Of course she was bound to annoy that person back.
Yi Xiangnong´s delicate face was distorted by anger. Both of her hands were firmly clasped.
„Are you really feeling sick? Do you want me to let Jing Xin go to ask for a physician to come here take a look at you?“ Qu Tang´er concernedly looked at her and then conveniently gave her a few words of concern and suggestions.
Suddenly, Yi Xiangnong´s expression changed again. Holding back the anger and smiling especially charming, she softy said: „There´s no need. Xiangnong thanks for jiejie´s concern. Today, Xiangnong came here, beside to pay jiejie a respect, also to specially thank jiejie. If it was not for princess consort jiejie not being able to make his highness stay last night, then his highness wouldn´t have come to meimei´s chamber. It caused meimei whole night didn´t sleep well. Being tossed whole night, meimei is truly tired to death.„
No matter if it was true or false, Yi Xiangnong precisely just wanted to infuriate Qu Tang´er.
Unfortunately, Qu Tang´er made a graceful smile as if she wasn´t able to hear the provocation in Yi Xiangnong´s words. She very comfortingly said: „Listening to what you said, I´m actually more or less at ease. And here I thought meimei would blame me.“ From the first day she has set foot inside this eighth prince´s mannor, she has already heard about eighth prince´s mansion´s two tigresses. Their claws were very sharp.
„Xiangnong will go back then, will not bother jiejie.“ Yi Xiangnong with a cold face got up from the seat, flicked her sleeves and fiercely turned aroud. She was so angry she didn´t even want to give a glance to Qu Tang´er.
„When you have a time, don´t forget to come here to drink a tea.“ Qu Tang´er lightly smiled. She waved at Yin Xiangnong´s back, seeing off each other with kind words.
„Why did master make an enemy?“ Jing Xin softly breathed out. When she once again ensured that Yin Xiangnong truly wouldn´t hear their dialogue, then did she ask what she wanted to ask.
„Where have you seen that an official wife would get along with other concubines? Furthermore, didn´t you see her behaviour? It´s clear, that she specially came here to show off. She came to add clog to my heart[1]. Of course, this clog, she was unable to add. I truly don´t have any affection for Mo Liancheng, after all. Otherwise, if it was other women, they would be long time ago driven nuts.“ She had watched this kind of scenario countless time on TV. What´s more, they have long ago played it rotten on TV.
Fight with her, Qu Tang´er? The problem was, she was in no mood to pay attention to her.
„As a result, master lied to her that this tea is yesterday´s?“ Jing Xin appeared to understand.
„Huh? You were indeed wrong about this matter. That tea is, indeed, truly the one I specially instructed Yuela to put into parlour last night. It´s just that she had a relatively bad luck. Nothing more.“
„...........“ Jing Xin was silent.
„Jing Xin, shouldn´t you praise my brain for being so handy that I could even come up with this?“
