Chapter 278 I Like King Beichen
She bit her lip and said softly, "But it's not good for a woman like you to listen to us men."
As he said that, he turned his gaze to Ji Yunxie: "Cousin, what do you think?"
Ji Yunxie pursed his thin lips and looked up at Thirteen: "Wait outside."
Hearing this, Thirteen hesitated for a moment and replied, "Yes!"
Ji Ruxue also sent the palace servants to wait outside the door, leaving only Ji Ruxue and Ji Yunxie in the room.
Ji Ruxue walked slowly to the piano stand, and gently plucked the strings with her fair hands, producing smooth music.
"Cousin, I heard you are good at playing the piano?"
Ji Yunxie's eyes paused and then closed, a well-behaved smile appearing on his porcelain-white face.
"Where did you hear that, cousin?"
"Oh? Could it be that my cousin doesn't know how to do it?"
Ji Ruxue frowned slightly, and said with a look of doing good for Ji Yunxie: "That won't do. After all, you are a son of a famous family. You should be proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, songs, embroidery, and tea art. If you can't say you are proficient in everything, you should at least have some knowledge of it."
"Otherwise, you won't have anything to show for it, and if it gets out, you'll lose your reputation. If you get married and embarrass your wife in front of others, she'll be disgusted by you."
Ji Yunxie's eyelids drooped slightly, and his long crow-feather eyelashes trembled slightly: "Ayue doesn't mind."
The smile on Ji Ruxue's face froze slightly, and she smiled again: "Cousin, you are wrong. Which woman in this world doesn't care about face?"
"I'm just saying this to tease you. When the day comes when you're asked to show off your talent, but you can't, won't that make everyone laugh at you?"
Ji Yunxie paused, her dense eyelashes drooped slightly, and there was no expression on her face.
"What does cousin want to say?"
Ji Ruxue's eyes flickered slightly, and she slowly walked towards Ji Yunxie, sat down beside him, and looked at Ji Yunxie, a blush appearing on her handsome and fair face.
"To be honest, I like King Beichen."
Ji Yunxie was stunned when he heard that. He looked up and saw Ji Ruxue with a shy and blushing face, as if she was just beginning to fall in love.
He had heard of this cousin, who was aloof, talented, and very popular with women, but he had high standards and had never found a wife that he liked. He was sixteen and still hadn't found a husband, which worried Feng Jun a lot.
He didn't expect that he would fall in love with A Yue?
His... fiancée?
So, what is he trying to do?
Somehow, Ji Yunxie had a bad feeling, as if if he continued to stay here, he would hear words he didn't want to hear.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard the person in front of him say shyly, "I fell in love with her from the first time I saw her, so I asked someone to find out her identity. I was very happy to learn that she was still single."
"But before I could explain my feelings to my father, I heard her blurt out that you are her prince on the day of boating."
Having said this, Ji Ruxue's face turned pale, and she looked at Ji Yunxie pitifully with her misty eyes.
"That's why I was surprised and lost my composure in front of the prince that day."
Ji Yunxie lowered his eyes and pursed his thin lips: So that's how it is.
No wonder he looked so surprised and unbelievable that day.
He didn't expect that his cousin would actually covet his A Yue.
To be honest, I feel very upset.
Suddenly, someone gently held his hand, and he looked up to meet Ji Ruxue's expectant and smiling eyes.
"I know my cousin likes him, but you have to know that she is a prince, and it is impossible for her to be the only one."
Ji Yunxie's face turned pale, and his other pale hand tightly grasped the thermos.
"In that case, why don't you and I share one wife?"
Ji Ruxue smiled sweetly and said in a bewitching voice: "As a prince, I will marry the King of Beichen as his principal ruler. In addition, my mother and father love me very much. If the prince wants to take a concubine, he must obtain my consent and the approval of my mother and father."
"As long as I don't give in, there will only be the two of us as the wife. Even if the prince insists on taking a concubine, with the help of my cousin, you won't be bullied."
"It's much better than having no power and no one to back you up, and only seeing the new people laughing and not the old people crying, isn't it?"
