Zhao Xin immediately smiled, “Okay.”

She had long wanted to meet her big brother’s beloved beauty.

Her brother wouldn’t say it, but Zhao Xin knew that her big brother only liked gentle and soft ladies with a pretty face and a nice body. They had to be beautiful and well-behaved.

When she arrived at the crown prince’s residence, Zhao Xin urgently jumped down the carriage, in a rush to go to the backyard to see Ming Zhu.

If it wasn’t for Zhao Zhi restraining her, her entire body would have flown off.

“You’d better go back.” Zhao Zhi sighed with somewhat of a headache.

He had just, very difficultly, removed Ming Zhu’s thorns, it was quite possible that she would again be badly influenced by Zhao Xin.

Zhao Xin showed a pitiful look, blinked her eyes and held out four fingers up in the air, “Big brother, I promise I won’t mess around.”

After saying this, she ordered a maidservant to lead her, in a great storm, towards the backyard.

Ming Zhu was embroidering the soles of her shoes when a gust of wind swept by. When she raised her head, there was the figure of a young girl in front of her.

Her face was round, her eyes were round, she looked young and very cute.

Ming Zhu was stunned for a moment, she didn’t recognize who she was, but she smelled that faint fragrance of pear blossoms that was on Zhao Zhi a few days ago.

The needle in her hand, during the time where she got slightly inattentive and lost in thought, pierced her finger. Drops of bright red blood flowed downward.

Ming Zhu stood up, and before she could speak, the young girl asked her first, “You are Zhu Zhu?”

Her big brother seemed to be calling her by this name.

Zhao Xin had overheard that name a few times.

Ming Zhu was at a loss, “Mmh.

As Zhao Xin looked at her face, she was stunned for a few seconds, she sighed, “You really are pretty.”

And fragrant.

And gentle.

And white.

The fragrance on her body was sweet-smelling and soft.

Her eyes looked clear, pure and naive.

Her round glass-like eyes appeared especially innocent.

No wonder her big brother wanted to hide the beauty away in a golden house.

This lady suited her big brother’s taste perfectly from top to bottom.

Zhao Xin muttered to herself, “How strange ……”

Ming Zhu looked at her at a loss, she thought that the crown prince’s new beloved had come to make a show of prestige in front of her.

What Zhao Xin was finding strange was, why did her big brother not marry Zhu Zhu!

She was so much better than that black-hearted person Sheng Ling!

Zhao Xin acted familiar with her, when she opened her mouth to talk to her, it was as if they had known each other for a long time.

It was hot outside, so Zhao Xin sat down, poured herself a cup of tea and fanned herself with her hands. She suddenly remembered something and asked, “You were Wei Chiyu’s fiancée before, right?”

The reason why Zhao Xin was acquainted with Wei Chiyu was very drama-like, that was because she always ran into him at the pastry store she loved to eat at.

She had never met a man who liked to buy pastries more than Wei Chiyu! Every day, no matter if it was windy, rainy or even snowy outside, he would always be there. Ming Zhu gave her her own fan and replied softly, “Mmh.”

Although it was the first time they met, Ming Zhu had a pretty good impression of this round-faced young girl.

Her words were straightforward, but she could feel that there was no malice. On the contrary, she was very friendly.

Zhao Xin rolled her round eyes and asked, rather curious, “Then do you love the crown prince?”

She was perfectly aware that Zhu Zhu was snatched away from Wei Chiyu by her big brother.

The atmosphere turned silent, desolate and lonely.

After a long time, Ming Zhu shook her head towards her, letting out gentle and weightless words, “I don’t love him.”

So she wouldn’t compete with her for favor.

The spring breeze carried fragrances over ten miles, as the elegant and outstanding man, at some point in time, had already reached the courtyard door. The surrounding area seemed to have suddenly turned quiet as he stood still for a moment, smiling with declining amusement.

The guard beside him held his breath and when he carefully raised his eyes to take a look, he saw a deep and profound haze inside the crown prince’s eyes.

The guard originally thought that the crown prince would just turn around and leave, who knew he would stand outside the courtyard door like this, appearing calm as he planned to keep on listening.

(30.1)

Ming Zhu answered honestly to her question just like this, on the contrary Zhao Xin was stunned, her expression looked slightly astonished. She thought that Ming Zhu at the very least had some affection for her big brother.

The women who usually wanted to pounce on her big brother were as numerous as carps in the river.

Besides, when her big brother wasn’t in an angry mood, he was very gentle.

Zhao Xin took two glances once again at her, and found it very difficult to take her eyes off her face, she was really particularly beautiful, but although her appearance was stunning, the air between her eyebrows was purer than water. She swallowed her saliva and softened her voice, as she asked, “Are you unable to forget Lord Wei ?”
