Qin Lang looked at Mu Yin’s shy appearance with great pleasure, and asked with great interest, “Oh? What do you want to give me?”
“Hmm…” it wasn’t known how but Mu Yin suddenly held an ornamental thumb ring out of thin air. People close to him thought he was doing magic, so they stretched their necks and watched curiously.
It was a white jade thumb ring. The white jade is smooth on the inside and looks equally smooth on the outside, but it has some complicated patterns. The thickness of the thumb ring is slightly thin, it looks beautiful when worn on the hand. Not only does it not have the coolness of jade, but it is warm. When moving his finger, it was completely unaffected, as if it didn’t exist.
Qin Lang guessed that this should be a divine artifact.
Sure enough, he heard Mu Yin explain to him: “This is the Xumi ring, there is a lot of space in it, so you can store a lot of things. When you want to use it, you take a look…just take it out like that.”
Following Mu Yin’s words, his hand brushed over the ring, then a beautiful porcelain vase appeared in his hand.
“Wow!” The guests who liked magic brightened their eyes and said that the Duchess’s magic performance was really flawless, then they saw that the next moment, the white porcelain vase quickly disappeared in the Duchess’s hand. Several children have applauded him.
Only Qin Lang, who was up close, knew that this was not some kind of magic. His face changed slightly, but he quickly covered it with a smile.
“Look, you can put it in again like this.” Mu Yin was still explaining.
Qin Lang nodded with a smile and suddenly wrapped his arms around Mu Yin’s shoulders, brushed off the silver hair on the young man’s forehead, and dropped a kiss on his forehead, “Thank you Xiao Yin, I love your magic. Mm, it’s a very unique token of love.”
In the circle of nobles, one can find out any kind of gossip. It’s not surprising that someone like Mu Yin, who has been crawling in the slum, would play tricks to please the guests. Qin Lang said it was magic, and no one doubted it. On the contrary, there were quite a few people who looked down on such a lowly performance and chuckled disdainfully.
“No…don’t thank me…” Mu Yin’s ears turned red now. His mind was so numb that he even forgot to ask what magic was.
Looking at the cute little fox, Qin Lang finally couldn’t help his evil hand from rubbing the little fox’s soft silver hair.
After all, since his accident, people haven’t seen him smile like this for a long time. It was said before that the Duchess has escaped the marriage, but seeing how close they are now, it doesn’t look like he escaped marriage at all.
The second prince frowned and whispered to General Mu next to him: “He and Mu Yin knew each other before?”
General Mu also looked puzzled: “Your royal highness, I just brought Mu Yin back from the slum a few days ago. Before that, the eldest… the Duke did not seem to have been to that place. They should meet for the first time today……”
Yuan Qi frowned and glanced at General Mu with half-squinted eyes, perhaps because he was dissatisfied with the fact that he almost and habitually called Qin Lang the eldest prince. General Mu kept his mouth shut and stopped talking. The eldest prince who was retrieved was like a commoner man, so the throne was already in the pocket of the second prince. He had already made the second prince unhappy by seeking Qin Lang for marriage before, he couldn’t afford to offend him any more.
Yuan Qi snorted lightly when he saw the general’s reaction, and refocused his attention on the two people wearing the exact same clothes. He’s really happy, if forced to smile can be considered happiness. The slums1The Chinese words here mean social stratum below the level of ordinary people. It’s kinda long so I shortened it to slum, and he’s from the slum. are matched with the cripple, this is the perfect match.
At the end of the wedding, Qin Lang took Mu Yin to the guests and introduced him one by one. The little fox knew that his daoist companion was introducing him to his relatives and friends, so he followed Qin Lang sensibly to recognize people one by one, without showing any impatience or rudeness, disappointing those who wanted to see his joke.
“Lord Duke…” Qin Lang brought Mu Yin to get dessert and put it on Mu Yin’s hand, but was stopped by a child.
The child is none other than the little princess of the royal family. The little girl is only six years old, she still doesn’t understand the twists and turns of adults. She suddenly had to call her elder brother, who she had been calling for a few years, duke. She was not used to it.
Qin Lang nodded towards her: “Your highness, princess. Is there anything you want?”
“I…my friends and I all want to see the Duchess perform magic again, is that okay?” The little girl looked at Mu Yin, who was eating cake beside him, with bright eyes.
Qin Lang was a little hesitant. After all, what the little fox knows is not a magic trick, but real power, and his wealth shouldn’t be exposed. If it is seen that what he is wearing is really a treasure, it will definitely cause trouble.
Seeing that Qin Lang didn’t agree with the little girl, she became anxious. She shook Qin Lang’s hand and called out softly, “Big brother, Xinxin wants to see it, is it possible?”
Qin Lang was hit by her skills, and rubbed the little girl’s head with a helpless smile: “Okay, okay, go and call your friend over.”
The little girl immediately smiled brightly, and hugged Qin Lang’s neck and made a loud and clear muah muah.
Mu Yin held the cake, pursed his lips and looked at Qin Lang’s face that was attacked.
It is not possible, right. Such a small child and he also drinks vinegar? Qin Lang beckoned to Mu Yin. Although the little fox was a little unhappy, he still walked to Qin Lang’s side.
“Lower,” Qin Lang took out a handkerchief and looked at him with a smile, “Cream on your lips.”
The little fox squatted down unprepared and put his face in front of Qin Lang. When Qin Lang held his face with one hand and wiped it for him carefully and gently with his other hand, he blushed in hindsight. Afraid that Qin Lang would laugh at him, he hurriedly explained, “It’s because the food is so delicious… I, I didn’t pay attention.”
“I also like to eat.” Qin Lang took advantage of the little fox’s inattention, and put his lips to his ear, “I know what you gave me is unusual, the few children want to watch you perform, you use something to cover it up. Just get something smaller to coax them, alright?”
Although Mu Yin blushed, he still understood what Qin Lang meant. Maybe people in this world don’t have such a thing as a Xumi ring. Master said that treasure should be hidden, but he just demonstrated it in front of so many people. If he doesn’t want to arouse suspicion, he should treat it as just a trick.
Mu Yin: “Mm, okay.”
“You’re so cute.” Qin Lang’s voice was low. His voice was full of intimacy and he even kissed Mu Yin’s hot earlobe with his cool lips.
Mu Yin: “…” his soul is out of his body.
The old butler on the side was in the center surrounded by the envious eyes of young boys and girls, but his old face was filled with calmness. However, his heart was already filled with countless barrages.
Oh my fucking god! I thought that master only knew how to kill beasts and lead the army to do meritorious deeds, but his flirting skill was a full score too? 666, worthy of being master! If I knew that master was so good at flirting, when I was chasing girls back then…ah, right, how old was the master at that time? think too much……
A few children quickly came to Qin Lang. After the wedding, they actually wanted to see more magic tricks, but her royal highness said that the duke and the duchess were busy so they shouldn’t disturbed them. Finally, when the adults were free, their parents said that the duke had a bad temper and had killed many monsters and enemies before so they were a little afraid and did not dare to come up.
But the duke in front of them now doesn’t seem to be scary at all, and he looks very nice when he smiles.
The group of children surrounded Mu Yin. Mu Yin put his hand into the jacket on his chest and took out a doll from his flat clothes. After the children exclaimed, some looked at Mu Yin’s clothes curiously, wanting to see what was hidden inside; some commented on the puppet, saying “so ugly”, and then they saw the puppet doll’s eyes suddenly move.
“Ya! It moves!” The children exclaimed, attracting the attention of the people around them.
Qin Lang could see that the doll was not an ordinary doll, “…this is a special kind of magic. If you praise it for being good-looking, it will laugh, and if you say it is ugly, it will stare at you.” He gave Mu Yin a look.
After that, the children said a few good words to the doll. Every time the doll moved, they found that Mu Yin seemed to be pressing somewhere on the back of the doll. With dissatisfaction, they said: “The duke lied, it was obviously the duchess who pressed the switch…”
Qin Lang laughed out loud and surrendered: “Why are you so powerful, you can see it so quickly?”
“Humph!” Several pairs of little eyes turn proud.
At this time, one of them was more courageous and asked in a low voice: “Duchess, can you let me play for a while? I will play with it carefully. I won’t break it.”
Mu Yin frowned, but immediately retracted the puppet in his hand. He looked at Qin Lang, Qin Lang quickly received what he wanted to express. He looked at the child whose mouth had been shriveled, and coaxed: “This doll is a relic left to him by Xiao Yin’s dead mother, it cannot be played with others casually, and it’s very old. If you want toys, maybe get something better?”
Although the child is still a little unhappy that he can’t play what he wants to play, he has also heard adults mention things like relics, and it seems that it is not something that can be played casually. After hearing Qin Lang say that there is something better, he reunites with his friends, excitedly looking forward to it together.
After that, there were beautiful wreaths that were stained with dew, multicolored windmills, conch shells that they could hear waves. The beautiful and fresh toys made several children laugh.
Seeing the two newlyweds happily surrounded by children, Mu Qing frowned invisibly, “Father, I always think that Mu Yin is a little strange.”
General Mu glanced at Mu Yin, who got along well with Qin Lang, and didn’t pay much attention: “Maybe it was the Duke who said something to him. Didn’t the Duke find him before? Maybe it was a deal with him. He didn’t want to be disgraced in front of so many nobles, so they were playing conjugal love here.”
Mu Qing squinted his eyes and watched Mu Yin reach into his plain clothes again and took out an exquisitely carved wooden bird, “Father, I don’t care if they were really in love, don’t you find his magic trick strange? Where did he get all this stuff from?”
General Mu looked at Mu Qing strangely: “Isn’t that what magic is all about? Mu Qing, you are the child that I care about the most, I know what your character and thoughts are best. Listen to your father, don’t be in a bad mood because of such trivial things. The situation is clear now, you should worry about the second prince.”
Mu Qing glanced at his father strangely and sneered: “Father, as far as I know, the second prince likes women. What do you want me to do? Let me mention my younger sister who is less than ten years old to pay attention to the already 22 years old second prince?”
General Mu snorted, not wanting to talk any more with his arrogant eldest son. He turned around and left.
After he left, Mu Qing also turned around and left the place.
After they left, Qin Lang glanced at their original location.
The system wondered: “I don’t know that Mu Qing very well. His favorability to you is obviously 0, but because of his down expression like ‘the person I like is married and the groom is not me’? Makes me so excited. I thought there would be some bloody plot development next.”
Qin Lang watched a few children happily hold the new toys and ran away, and said to the system: “What’s so strange about this. He is just conceited. A person who thinks he is perfect and thinks only perfect people are worthy of him.”
“The original owner had perfect identity, perfect image, and perfect ability. He agreed to his father’s arrangement to lower his image get ‘marry’ to the original owner, not to support his father’s political career, but he thinks that the original owner was the most suitable candidate for him. After that, my identity was not perfect anymore, and there was still a problem with my body, so he agreed to his father’s replacement arrangement. Of course not because he knew how to face the situation, but because he felt that I was not suitable. However, their family made a unilateral decision so he felt a little guilty for me. Maybe if I reveal a little dissatisfaction and the atmosphere at my wedding is not good, he is ready to jump out and say sorry that he can only follow his father’s arrangement and so on to maintain his perfect image.”
“However! However, I didn’t feel as lost as he imagined, and I didn’t even look at him at all at the wedding. Instead, I was quite satisfied with my current partner. For him, this was like a blow to his pride. He can’t stop comparing himself with my little fox, for example, what’s so good about him, he has no temperament and no culture and so on.”
System: “Tsk, so pretentious! Hurry, hurry up and continue to show affection with your man, I want to slap him in the face! Fuck! He actually just left! Humph! He is also in that school, if you meet him, you must slap in the face!”
What else could Qin Lang say besides saying yes? Several worlds have passed, and there is no need to show at all. The dog food will naturally make its way to people’s faces.
In the evening, after a busy day, Qin Lang was really tired.
But he still had something to ask Mu Yin. The butler sent him back to the bedroom and consciously exited and closed the door. After all, he couldn’t stay as a light bulb on his master’s wedding night tonight.
“Sit wherever you want. Here is our bedroom.” Qin Lang looked at Mu Yin who was standing in the room with some restraint, and laughed again, he asked softly, “Are you tired today? Take a shower first?”
Mu Yin put his hands behind his back, his movements were a bit strange. He also didn’t dare to meet Qin Lang’s eyes, as if he was shy: “Fortunately…we, can we not sleep together tonight…?”
“Hm?” Qin Lang looked at him, “but tonight is our wedding night.”
“I know…but…” Mu Yin still had his hands behind his back, as if he was hiding something, “We’ve only known each other for a day…I…”
The little fox’s face turned red and white for a while, Qin Lang finally understood his movements, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, oh oh oh! His husband wouldn’t really show his fox’s tail, right?! He was going to show his true appearance! Oh oh oh! Just thinking about it!
