Now the manor was surprisingly quiet, there were no other guests. After Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen had their meals, the maids cleaned up the dinner table, they had nothing else to do but to prepare for bed.
The maids skillfully placed the things in the room, and after making the bed, they exited one by one. After the door closed, Mu Mingtang took off the hair pieces for Xie Xuanchen in front of the mirror, and then said: “I just asked Xiang Nanchun and learned that the imperial physicians are on duty at the study hall. Where is the study hall?”
“Go east along Yunrui Hall, after passing the temple, walk a while longer. It’s opposite of the temple, and it’s only separated by a strip of water from the temple.”
When Mu Mingtang recalled the routes in the manor, she kind of knew where to go. She nodded and said, “Tomorrow, I’ll find a chance to go east and take a look. By the way, I heard that there’s a lake in the manor. Is that the one you just mentioned?”
“No, you have to go further east for that. When it was built, they specially brought in the water from a stream outside. The water is alive and cleaner than dead water.”
Mu Mingtang stood behind Xie Xuanchen, she just took off his hair pieces, and was now combing his hair. When she heard Xie Xuanchen’s words, she couldn’t help but “tsk”.
“I lived in the temple before, and it looks quite huge as I look from the window. I thought it was the lake in the garden. It isn’t?”
“Of course not.” Xie Xuanchen sneered, “It’s at most just a small pond.”
“A small pond……” Mu Mingtang murmured and repeated, she couldn’t help but exclaim, “How luxurious, the royal family is so dramatic!”
Xie Xuanchen was amused. With his hair loose now, the candlelight reflected in his eyes, and his smile was pure and innocent. Mu Mingtang was still holding onto Xie Xuanchen’s hair. As she saw his smile from the mirror, she paused slightly.
What a sin, if everyone in the royal family looked like this, she would be willing to give her everything. Xie Xuanchen saw that Mu Mingtang was in a daze and also sighing, he asked strangely: “What are you thinking about again, why are you sighing?”
Mu Mingtang shook her head: “It’s nothing. You won’t understand the sorrows of being an ordinary folk.”
Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, Mu Mingtang blurted out the words “Royal family” and “Ordinary folk”. It can be seen that she didn’t feel that she was one of them and she didn’t feel like she was his wife. Xie Xuanchen thought of this, he can’t give Mu Mingtang a future at all, so how could he demand her to feel some way?
Mu Mingtang was exclaiming at all the bloody rich people, she didn’t pay attention to Xie Xuanchen’s subtle thoughts. She combed Xie Xuanchen’s hair and placed it behind his shoulders.
This way, he looked even more like an innocent and harmless kept man. Mu Mingtang was secretly snickering, Xie Xuanchen had dark and shiny hair, which was very smooth, it felt great in her hands. Mu Mingtang helped Xie Xuanchen to get up, and couldn’t help but ask, “Is your hair naturally this straight?”
“Yeah.” Xie Xuanchen nodded, and Mu Mingtang’s heart was gurgling with envy. Today, Xie Xuanchen put on a black and purple robe as he was going out. It does look good on him, but now it’s slightly awkward because they were about to go to bed.
Mu Mingtang coughed slightly, and gaze fell on Xie Xuanchen’s body awkwardly: “You can’t sleep in a robe. Should I take it off for you?”
Xie Xuanchen controlled the expression on his face with all his might and nodded calmly: “Yeah.”
Xie Xuanchen was too calm, as if he was already accustomed to it. In contrast, she seemed like a bumpkin.
She learned from him and Mu Mingtang slowly calmed down. She walked to the front and unbuttoned Xie Xuanchen’s collar, and then reached out to untie Xie Xuanchen’s belt.
When Mu Mingtang touched Xie Xuanchen’s body, she noticed that his body was stiff. Mu Mingtang didn’t think much about it. As she untied his belt, he casually said, “Why are you so stiff?”
“Nonsense.” Xie Xuanchen denied, “I’m always like this.”
Well, Mu Mingtang won’t argue with him. Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen both secretly breathed a sigh of relief after she finished unbuttoning his robe, he didn’t plan on changing his inner layer.
This was the first time Xie Xuanchen was undressed by a woman. While his heart felt tense, he also thought that it was quite a pity. He hadn’t undressed a woman before, and Mu Mingtang had taken the lead.
