Chapter 975: Looking at Each Other
Since Little Jiajia was unwilling to leave, it was useless for Song Jingchen to say anything. Moreover, he was helpless against her bold and straightforward words. In the end, he could only let her go. The initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.
When Little Jiajia said that she wouldn’t disturb them, she really didn’t make a sound. She obediently moved a stool and sat opposite the desk. She supported her chin with both hands and stared straight at the young man opposite her. It was unknown what she was thinking, but she would cover her mouth and stifle a laugh from time to time.
At first, Song Jingchen would ask curiously, “What are you laughing at?”
The little girl pretended to be shy, but her eyes were still on his face. She said boldly, “With how good-looking my husband is, our children will definitely be good-looking in the future.”
“What children?” Song Jingchen was so shocked that he almost jumped up from the ground. He was mature and was often teased by his grandfather about his tendency to act like an old man, but this little girl always made him lose his composure.
She called him her husband the first time they met, and he couldn’t correct her no matter what. Now that she even thought of having children, should she consider how many children she should give birth to and what name she should give them?
No, what was he thinking? He was still a child!
Song Jingchen blushed again. He didn’t say anything and pretended that the person opposite him didn’t exist.
However, how could he ignore such a pair of eyes? He held the book for a long time and did not read a word.
It wasn’t until MO Yuan came over and called her away that Song Jingchen heaved a sigh of relief.
The servant guarding the door was shocked to see another person in the study.
“Princess, the emperor of Great Xia has agreed. He even rewarded you with many scholarly treasures.”
MO Yuan opened her mouth. Coincidentally, a maidservant outside the door reported that the main kitchen had sent over dinner. She changed the topic and said, “Princess, let’s eat dinner first. The weather is getting colder. If you don’t eat, it’ll get cold.”
Little Jiajia was even more curious, but after spending half the afternoon in her little husband’s study, she had only drunk a few cups of tea and did not see a single snack. She could not take it anymore and could only suppress her curiosity.
After dinner, the servants sent hot water. These were all instructed by MO Yuan on the first day they moved in. They followed Little Jiajia’s previous schedule.
The hot water was steaming, making the house foggy.
MO Yuan moved a small table to the side and helped Little Jiajia wash her hair. She found it funny when she saw her chin resting on the water and only revealing her head.
Only at this moment could she see a hint of shyness on this fearless princess’s face.
She was brought into Lord Jing’an’s residence by His Highness when she was five years old. She had always been by the princess’s side and had watched her learn how to speak from the beginning to the end. The two of them could be said to have grown up together.
She had seen what the princess looked like. However, after the princess could remember, she stopped letting others help her take a shower.
She even said that her body could only be shown to her future husband.
She remembered that she had amused the princess consort and a room full of maidservants at that time. However, even the princess consort could not do anything about the princess’s insistence, so she could only let her be.
After so many years, the princess had not changed at all.
“Sister MO Yuan, tell me quickly. Is there anything else to say about tomorrow’s banquet?” Little Jiajia tilted her head and accidentally buried her lips in the water, blowing out a string of bubbles as she spoke.
MO Yuan was almost amused. She thought of something and couldn’t laugh anymore. After thinking for a while, she said, “A few days ago, the princess asked me to send something to the young master and young mistress of the residence. I accidentally heard the servants in the main courtyard discussing that the Duchess held this banquet to find someone suitable for Heir Song.”
Little Jiajia stood up from the bathtub in shock.. “What did you say?”
