Chapter 412

Mu Mingtang was indeed hungry, so she nodded. Just as she was about to support herself to get up, her hands buckled and she almost fell down. Xie Xuanchen quickly supported her with sharp eyes and simply carried her horizontally, “You don’t have the strength now; let me do it.”

When the maids received the notification, they had already prepared some meals in the East room. Suddenly, they saw the Prince coming out with the Princess in his arms as everyone immediately lowered their heads, not daring to cast a glance.

The two servants who went out with Mu Mingtang yesterday initially assumed that the royal couple would return soon, but they didn’t expect for them to not show up even after a long time had passed. They were worried and didn’t know what to do when they suddenly saw the Prince coming back with someone in his arms.

Xie Xuanchen somehow managed to restrain himself as he asked, “Are you full?”
