Ye-mama trembled in fright. After all, she was a woman of the inner residence. Even if she was old, it was difficult for her to resist Li Of Gojoseon's murderous nature. Her face turned ashen.
Her heart was in a mess, and she forgot to stop Li Of Gojoseon from barging in.
When the door was opened, she thought, since the two of them were husband and wife, what was there to be afraid of?
Since he had seen, she reached out to block the two servants behind her.
Long Heng didn't think about whether or not there was anyone following behind him. He directly pushed the door open and entered.
This room was originally a place for the chefs in the kitchen to rest. The outer room was a tea room. In the middle of the room, there was a hanging curtain embroidered with a landscape painting. Standing outside, he could see a few pairs of embroidered shoes inside.
He didn't care who was inside and directly lifted the curtain to enter.
The inside was bustling with activity. A group of people surrounded a pair of white little feet and pointed at them.
Suddenly, a tall man came in. Everyone was stunned and even made a path for him.
This path led directly to the kang bed Bai Xiangxiu was sitting on. She had no idea who had entered due to the obstructions, but when she heard the group of chattering girls suddenly fall silent, she realized that someone must've come. She poked her head out to take a look and saw her own prince.
She was a modern woman, so she didn't feel uncomfortable having her feet looked at.
However, her female alertness made her see that Long Heng's eyes darkened when he saw her feet.
She hurriedly hugged her feet and shrunk inwards. But at this moment, he had already walked over.
A hand accurately grabbed her ankle and said, "Don't move."
Bai Xiangxiu's face immediately turned red. Obviously, he was feeling uncomfortable just now. How could he be so bold now?
The people in this room …
Where were they?
Why did the people in this room disappear in the blink of an eye?
Bai Xiangxiu's heart immediately jumped and said, "It's not serious. It's just a sprain."
"If you have anything to do, let the servants do it. Otherwise, what's the point of keeping them?" He said sternly. Bai Xiangxiu felt like she was being lectured by a teacher. She lowered her head in embarrassment.
Long Heng also knew that his tone was too cold. This was the reason why she was afraid of him!
However, looking at her cherry red lips, he had a feeling that he wanted to suppress it.
However, this was the Song family.
He restrained himself and shifted his gaze to the side.
"I don't need you to do anything right now. I'll get someone to send you back!" Long Heng was actually a very protective person. He would never let his people suffer any grievances.
He thought that this timid and obedient woman would immediately nod and pack up to go home. Who knew that she would say, "How can I do that?"
Bai Xiangxiu regretted it as soon as she finished speaking. How could she dare to disagree with Li Of Gojoseon? Shouldn't she be afraid of him the most?
Her heart trembled at the thought of his methods.
She originally thought that she would definitely be punished this time. She bit her lower lip and lowered her head.
"Why?"
A cold voice sounded from above her head. The male lead was very tall, so she was still a bit shorter when sitting on the kang.
Bai Xiangxiu bit her lip hard and let the pain calm her down.
She admitted that she was afraid of death, but she couldn't lose her dignity because of her fear of death!
She was a modern woman, so she had her own principles when doing things.
"I … … This concubine doesn't like to break a promise to others."
"You … …"
Long Heng found that he couldn't do anything to her. It wasn't only because she disobeyed him, but also because of her strong and stubborn personality.
Obviously she was very weak, but she still wanted to keep her promise.
She wasn't a man, so why was she like this?
His heart was beating fast. He felt like he was getting to know this woman who looked weak, but had an honest heart. His heart was throbbing.
"Since it's like this, take good care of yourself." He turned to leave, but his heart couldn't calm down.
"Yes." Bai Xiangxiu looked at Long Heng's back and let out a sigh of relief.
It was strange that he didn't want to punish her?
In this kind of society where men were respected, a concubine was a man's plaything, a servant.
They could be given away, sold, or even killed.
So, while she broke out in a cold sweat, she was also grateful to the male lead.
He wasn't bad, he didn't directly kill her. It was a pity that the male lead was the female lead's.
Right now, it was already too far from the main story. Her fate as a small supporting female lead had never been mentioned. It didn't even mention if she was liked by the old madame.
The original plot was the supporting female lead thinking of all kinds of ways to frame the female lead, using all kinds of schemes to seduce the male lead.
But now, she seemed to have been seduced by the male lead. What should she do?
This male lead really made people, especially women, unable to ignore him.
Even if he didn't show much gentleness, just his kind of 'if I want you, it's useless no matter how you run' eyes made people tremble.
But, with the female lead here, did he want the supporting female lead's body or did he have feelings for her?
How could this be? Obviously, the time spent with him was limited, and there was nothing about her that could attract him.
Bai Xiangxiu sat on the kang, stiff for a while. Xiao Shi came in and continued to apply medicine for her.
In a short while, she could walk two laps. The matter in the kitchen was also settled, so there was nothing for her to worry about.
Song Jiaoyue let the two maidservants accompany her. After all, the Buddhist gathering was a rare ceremony. Even a concubine was a guest and should attend.
But women couldn't stand in the front openly. They generally gathered around the temple. If it was quiet, they could hear the masters in the courtyard preaching Buddhist principles.
Song Jiaoyue was partial to Bai Xiangxiu and prepared a small room for her alone. It was very elegant, and she could quietly listen to the Buddhist preaching outside.
Bai Xiangxiu listened to the masters preaching Buddhist principles and couldn't help but think about why she came to this strange world.
She sat cross-legged on the couch, closed her eyes and turned the Buddhist beads in her hand. She still felt that this was very inconceivable.
Why did she come? Why would she go back? Or would she stay and never go back?
Was this a book or a reality? Was this her previous life or her current life?
Perhaps she was thinking too seriously, when Song Jiaoyue came in, she didn't notice.
Song Jiaoyue was stunned by this scene as soon as he came in. The woman's appearance was very beautiful, but when she sat with her eyes closed, she was so dignified like a fairy.
Her posture was beautiful, her appearance was beautiful, and even her quiet appearance was so beautiful that it was out of this world.
Why didn't he notice her like this before?
Originally, he thought she was a frivolous woman.
Now it seemed that she wasn't such a woman.
She was young, but she was knowledgeable.
She was beautiful, but she didn't take pride in it and used her body to seduce men.
Even when she was in love with him, she was well-behaved. Aside from boldly giving him a gift, she only stared at him from time to time …
At that time, her gaze disappeared directly after he rejected her. From this point, it could be seen that she wasn't a particularly clingy woman, nor was she indecisive.
However, her feelings for him were probably real, otherwise she wouldn't have been sick for so long.
At this time, he wanted to ask her what she saw and understood at this time.
