C614 You can't hide it from me

"You get up first, I won't touch you."

His voice was very gentle, as if afraid that the mute sister wouldn't believe it. He took a big step back and looked her in the eye quietly.

The mute sister slowly stood up, but she did not look at Yan Jue. She only stood there quietly, or perhaps waiting for Yan Jue to speak.

After all, she was not qualified to speak up in front of the prince.

"Did you play that song just now?"

Yan Jue's voice made her subconsciously raise his head to look at him. She thought back to when he was tired of chopping firewood and sitting by the side to rest. He then picked up the leaves and started playing with them.

At that time, she just sat there with nothing to do, casually picking a leaf and blowing it to avoid waking others up. At that time, she just sat there with nothing to do, casually picking a leaf and blowing it to avoid waking people up.

Unexpectedly …

She looked at Yan Yuan nervously and nodded.

"Who taught you this song?"

He continued to ask as mute sister's heart tightened. His face, which was covered by the veil, showed a trace of panic.

She looked at Yan Jue, and Yan Jue also looked at her.

Under the veil, the mute sister pursed her lips. After hesitating for a moment, she used his hand to gesture for something, but Yan Jue could not understand. He recalled that she did not know how to speak.

For some unknown reason, his heart felt a severe pain, and his throat felt tight as if he had been wounded. He was also unable to speak.

After the mute sister sparring was over, Yan Jue still couldn't understand what she was saying. He thought for a bit, then asked: "Can you read?"

mute sister, who was at his side, clenched her fist tightly. In her palm, which was wet with nervousness, she shook her head and lowered her eyes.

Yan Jue looked at her quietly and walked in front of her. His domineering aura pressured the mute sister to the point where he couldn't breathe.

But before he could stand still, he was pulled back by Yan Jue once again, "Take off your veil."

mute sister was shocked by Yan Jue's request. She shook her head forcefully and looked at Yan Jue in panic, her eyes filled with dissatisfaction.

He gestured nonstop with his hands. Yan Jue did not have the heart to understand, he only grabbed her slender arm and said sternly: "I want you to take off your veil."

mute sister's eyes were filled with tears, as she continuously shook her head.

It was at this moment that the mother of the steward, the Mother Liu, called out from outside the courtyard's gate, "Your Highness!"

The Mother Liu hurriedly stepped forward, "This old servant greets Your Highness, could it be that the mute sister has offended Your Highness in some way?"

Mother Liu knew that some lazy and corrupt people in the King's Manor were bullying mute sister, so she took care of some heavy work for her. After reprimanding the servants, mute sister did not mind it at all.

Mother Liu woke up in the middle of the night. She had wanted to go see mute sister, but when she heard the commotion coming from the woodshed in the backyard, she hurriedly ran over, but was surprised to find out that Yan Jue was there.

Yan Jue did not care about Mother Liu, he only looked at him fiercely and repeated: "Take off your veil!"

The mute sister ignored him, and continued to spar with him. The Mother Liu nodded continuously, but when his gaze met Yan Jue's sharp gaze, he stopped.

Seeing the interaction between the two of them, Yan Jue asked Mother Liu, "Can you understand what she's saying?"

"Yes …" Yes, this old servant's niece is also a mute, so this old servant can read sign language. "

Yan Jue's gaze turned towards the flustered mute sister. His eyes narrowed, "What is she saying?"

"She said that she was born ugly. When she was young, she frightened the children of the neighbors, so she had been wearing a veil since she was young. She did not dare take it off, afraid that she would offend you and make you angry."

As Yan Jue listened to the Mother Liu's explanation, the coldness on her face did not lessen in the slightest. He only continued to look at Liu Tian Xin with an irrefutable gaze, and said. "This king has seen anything before, take it off!"

He shouted harshly, startling the mute sister and the others.

Mother Liu looked at mute sister with a troubled look. She didn't know why her Royal Highness wanted him to take off her veil, wasn't this just a scar that would embarrass him?

The prince usually had a good temper, so he always talked and laughed with the servants. Why was he making things difficult for this pitiful little girl tonight?

Although Mother Liu was suspicious, and didn't dare to question Yan Jue directly, he could only say to mute sister: "How about this, you take it off, the Prince won't blame you."

mute sister still shook his head, his eyes firmly facing Yan Jue's uncompromising gaze. There was no sign of compromise in those eyes, and because of Yan Jue's coercion, some anger rose from the bottom of his eyes.

She gestured at Yan Jue something, and her movements became larger than before, obviously a little angry.

Seeing her actions, Mother Liu was so frightened that her face turned white. She immediately stopped her hand gestures, but was stopped by Yan Jue, "What did she say?"

"She …" "She …"

"Speak!"

Yan Jue's voice sunk, and a trace of anger rose up in the bottom of his eyes.

"She …" She said that since the prince was so forceful, he … It was too excessive. She was only a servant of the Prince's Mansion, so she didn't sell her body to the Prince's Mansion. So … "She said that if the prince really doesn't like her, she can just leave."

When Mother Liu said this, he was so scared that her face turned white.

Although she knew that the prince was easy to talk to, it didn't mean that the prince was easy to fool. Even if she made up some random words to confuse him, she still wouldn't be able to fool him.

Hearing that, Yan Jue looked at mute sister with a smile that was not really a smile. The stubborn eyes of the mute sister and the girl in his memory, matched each other little by little.

He stared at her for a few seconds, and she stared back at him in disapproval, clearly truly irritated by what he had done.

He waved his hands at Mother Liu, signalling her to go down. Mother Liu did not feel safe, she sneaked a glance at mute sister, and did not dare disobey Yan Jue's orders, before turning and leaving.

He bent his body and leaned towards mute sister's ear. Seeing that she instinctively wanted to avoid her ear, he was not angry, but his mood was very good.

"Xiao Tian Xin, I know it's you, you can't hide it from me."

mute sister's body stiffened for a moment. The panic on her face was concealed by the veil, but it couldn't hide from her eyes.

"Don't worry. Not only will I not chase you out of the manor, I will also keep you by my side to wait upon me."

He looked at her with a smile that was not a smile in his eyes, and after he finished speaking, he turned and left without waiting for mute sister to speak.

When he left, no one saw him running away, his body was trembling violently, no matter how calm he pretended to be in front of the mute sister, only he knew, his excited colleagues, the deep fear and uneasiness in his heart.

The more he was certain that he was Xiao Tian Xin, the more cautious he would be. He repeatedly told her to take off her veil, but when there was time, he didn't dare really let her take it off.
