Chapter 551: Bla who?
“Alright, girl, don’t be angry anymore. Today it’s my fault. I should not have insisted that you had to co over. Will an apology from suffice?” Prince Jing’s appeasing deanor was rare, and there were even fewer people who could prompt it. Fortunately, from this mont on, Ye Jiu beca one of them.
Faced with such a Prince Jing, Ye Jiu felt sowhat at a loss, “I… I said, I really wasn’t angry.”
“That’s good to hear. I’ve brought you a gift.” Prince Jing said, extending his hand to ruffle Ye Jiu’s hair, turning her normally smooth tresses into a complete ss.
Ye Jiu disdainfully swatted away his hand and set about tidying her hair, giving him a disgruntled glare as well.
Then, Prince Jing’s entire being instantly relaxed.
With the girl acting like that, he could truly believe she was no longer angry, and he could finally be at ease.
“Wait for it, the gift I’ve prepared for you this ti is no ordinary one,” Prince Jing said, pulling a small wooden box from his sleeve.
Then, with an air of mystery, he opened the box, and instantly, a gentle and faint glow emanated from within.
“This is…” Ye Jiu questioned.
“This is a Luminous Pearl. Such a large one is rare in the world. It’s part of my private collection,” Prince Jing said, smugly glancing at Ye Jiu. “Girl, see how well I treat you? You should know, I haven’t even been willing to give such a thing to the Princess Consort.”
So, he was being this generous. If she remained angry after that, it would truly be unfair.
The ntion might have been fine, but it suddenly brought to mind the matter of the hot spring villa outside the capital city.
Suddenly, the little face that had just been coaxed into happiness began to show disdain upon seeing Prince Jing, “I dare not accept the Prince’s belongings, for fear that later you’ll say I stole them, and then I truly won’t be able to clear my na, even if I were all mouths.”
Ye Jiu said this while she closed the box in her hand and then handed it back to Prince Jing.
Prince Jing felt dissatisfied, “The Liu Family matter has been over for so long; why do you keep bringing it up? Besides, I’ve already compensated you with the hot spring villa. You’re really petty, girl. You should know that the location of that villa is one of the best, surrounded by the elite of the capital city, and its size is second to none. It’s sothing you couldn’t buy even if you had the money.”
The less said about the hot spring villa the better, but the more Prince Jing ntioned it, the angrier Ye Jiu felt.
“Don’t talk about that villa to ; when I went there, the steward said that he had received no news of a change of ownership. It’s a villa owned by the Royal Residence of Prince Jing; it was only because the steward was amiable that I wasn’t kicked out. Otherwise, the person you’d be seeing now might well have been missing an arm or a leg!” Ye Jiu knew in her heart that Prince Jing might not have done it on purpose, but at this mont, her words still carried an undertone of resentnt.
The comnt sounded sowhat awkward.
Prince Jing reflected carefully and realized that he had only given Ye Jiu the land deed and had indeed forgotten to give out the necessary instructions.
Mainly because he had intended to take Ye Jiu there to have a look and handle the handover in person, but she hadn’t wanted to go.
Afterward, he simply forgot the whole thing.
Prince Jing coughed awkwardly and said, “You really can’t bla for this, when I gave you the land deed, I said I would take you to see it, but it was you, girl, who didn’t want to.”
Ye Jiu scoffed, “So now it’s all my fault, is it?”
It cost her a great deal of dignity in front of Sikong Mo; did he not feel guilty at all?
Although he couldn’t see Ye Jiu’s face, Prince Jing could imagine from behind the veil the scoffing expression she must be wearing.
