Chapter 108A: Wife sings and husband follows

In the corridor where the wind was blowing gently, the mansion’s lights flickered slightly as it swayed the shady shadows of the trees. Luo Qing Luan noticed that the servants had already handed Nangong Qing the medicinal soup so she led Dai Yue who was standing guard outside back to Ambrosial Violet Courtyard.

“Miss, looks like His Highness really likes you a lot.” Dai Yue whispered and started mumbling to herself, “Too bad, Miss has already married Prince Chu.”

Although she was considered part of Luo Qing Luan’s dowry after marriage, but Dai Yue had not changed her greeting towards Luo Qing Luan. The other servants in Prince Chu’s Mansion address Luo Qing Luan as Prince Consort but she has never changed how she addresses her, continuing to greet her as ‘Miss’.

“What’s the matter Dai Yue, I can tell that you’re interested in Crown Prince?”

Luo Qing Luan turned her head around and started at Dai Yue in a smile which wasn’t a smile, “Do you want me to take some time to ask him if he wants to take you as his concubine? But you’re my dowry maid, so no matter how much you like the Crown Prince, we’d still need to ask Nalan Ye first……”

Originally she was merely casually asking but Dai Yue had not expected her to be teased by Luo Qing Luan immediately as her face flushed red, “Miss don’t. Since when did I like Crown Prince, I was merely asking out of curiosity. Please don’t ever go ask Prince Chu, otherwise he….”

“Could it be that you like Nalan Ye instead?” Luo Qing Luan gave an enlightened look.

“Miss, what are you saying!” Dai Yue was so shy that she couldn’t raise her head and stomped her feet as she covered her face and ran off.

Looking at the flustered escaping bunny’s figure, Luo Qing Luo couldn’t stop smiling. Her face was just too thin, totally unable to take any teasing at all.

“Why, using your husband to tease your own maid?” Abruptly, a mellow and gentle voice rang not too far away. Seeing Nalan Ye dressed in a dark robe with a jade buckle on his waist, he walked over with his hands placed behind his back with a smile on his lips as he smiled lightly, “Aren’t you afraid of her really liking me, will you be jealous by then?”

Ever since the night of their marriage, Luo Qing Luo was even more guarded against Nalan Ye. Not only did she make him sleep in the study room, she also usually refused to talk anything more to him. Although they had just returned to her parental home today and looked as though they were on amicable terms, but once they were in private, Luo Qing Luan totally changed her face.

It was because that night’s happening made her face flush red and heart pound wildly. Nalan Ye this b*stard, he directly pressed her acupoints and hugged her for the entire night. Although the two of them didn’t do any physical things, but having such intimate contact made her clearly felt Nalan Ye’s physical changes and if it wasn’t for the fact that she had persisted on, she might really have been ‘done in’ by him.

Hence from the second day onwards, she increased her vigilance even though they were already married and had formally become his Prince’s Consort, but Luo Qing Luan was determined not to appear anywhere together with Nalan Ye. Including the visit to Nangong Qing, she headed over alone.

Luo Qing Luan put on a straight face and said calmly, “Dai Yue is originally my dowry maid so if she likes you, isn’t it just nice? You can take her as a concubine anytime, and it’d be totally justified.”

“You’re indeed jealous, Qing Luan you’re so adorable.” Nalan Ye totally didn’t mind her attitude and as his palm lifted upwards wanting to touch Luo Qing Luan’s face, the latter took a step back immediately as she frowned, “What are you trying to do, pawing me like that! Move aside, I want to return to my room.”

She absolutely could not let her defences down otherwise this man would immediately hit the snake with the pole.

Flickering her sleeves, Luo Qing Luan walked straight on and Nalan Ye followed her closely behind as he asked, “That’s right, have you just gone to see the Crown Prince, how is he?”

Standing still as she turned back, Luo Qing Luan was just about to open her mouth when she realised that Nalan Ye was right behind her and they almost collided! She swiftly took a step back as Luo Qing Luan’s face turned gloomy, “If you want to know how Crown Prince is, why don’t you personally pay a visit to him and not ask me. This is your mansion, is there anything that you don’t know?”

He must have done it intentionally, following so closely behind hoping that she would collide into his arms?

“Qing Luan, you seem very angry. Who made you upset, surely it’s not me right?” Nalan Ye seemed astonished as he immediately added on asking with utmost concern.

This stinky man, still trying to play the fool which made Luo Qing Luan itchy with pain. These few days, she had been maintaining her distance with Nalan Ye but he kept acting like he didn’t know nor detected anything. Now he even asked this intentionally, he really knew how to put on an act!

She couldn’t help but recall what happened that night and Luo Qing Luan calmed down, “This Lady’s temper has almost been magnanimous so how could I possibly get angry? No matter how despicable, vulgar and shameless someone is, This Lady will just ignore him and that’s it. There’s no need for me to waste my effort to get angry, it hurts the liver, understand?”

She had just walked two steps when she recalled something and turned her head to stare at Nalan Ye, “Right, I’m telling you, This Lady is about to step out for a bit, you’d better not follow me. Crown Prince is still here and as the Lord of the mansion, you should naturally take good care of him, do you hear me?”

“I hear you, Qing Luan. What other instructions do you have?” Nalan Ye asked.

“Nothing else, I’m leaving.” Luo Qing Luan walked away without turning back.

After a long time of not moving, Nalan Ye stood at the original spot sending her off with his gaze as his lips curled up into a smile that wasn’t quite like a smile.

This new bride of his had been shy for so many days and now she’s ignoring him so it seemed like she’s embarrassed over that night. She’s probably headed towards Heavenly Dream Tower because she had agreed to meet up with Nangong Yu these few days. She had spent so much effort so how would she not do some pre-checks? He naturally had to follow her. Although she said that he’s not allowed to follow her, but his reply was he heard her and did not agree to him not going.

Since they’ve gotten married, he naturally needed to follow his wife wherever she sang to, without any exception!

……

Changing into a man’s attire, Luo Qing Luan headed out of Prince Chu’s mansion alone as she found her way easily to Heavenly Dream Tower.
