Chapter 122
While this scene was clearly seen by Bi Yue, who was hiding not far away.
She stamped her feet under the tree, very angry, "Humph! I knew this Xia Miaomiao was trying to seduce the Palace Lord!"
In the study, Xia Miaomiao gathered her thoughts and imperceptibly withdrew her hand, without showing any abnormality.
Hua Wuyou also did not show any abnormality. He carefully tasted the snacks in his mouth, "Hmm...the taste is not bad. It looks like bringing you to the Palace of No Worries was the right choice."
"If you like it, that's good..."
Hua Wuyou looked at her and asked directly, "Little bunny, you said you like me, so tell me what do you like about me?"
Unexpectedly, Xia Miaomiao directly retorted, "What do you like about me? From the beginning, you wanted me to be your eleventh concubine."
Unexpectedly, Hua Wuyou smiled and said indifferently, "I'm a flower thief, I like all beautiful girls."
The implication was that this kind of liking could apply to anyone.
Xia Miaomiao looked into his eyes, her eyes flowing, "I like you because you look good, especially your eyes. This is the first time I've seen such beautiful eyes."
Hua Wuyou was stunned, he did not expect her to say that.
His eyes were what he disliked the most.
It was because of these unusual eyes that he was abandoned as a monster since he was a child.
Seeing that he did not speak, Xia Miaomiao's gaze fell on the music score on his desk.
"Your music score... looks quite difficult."
Hearing her words, Hua Wuyou came back to his senses and looked at the music score on the desk.
"You can also read music scores?"
"I know a little bit." Xia Miaomiao said very modestly. She bent over and pointed her slender white fingers at a certain position on the music score, "This part is very difficult to play."
As Xia Miaomiao bent over, she moved closer to Hua Wuyou. He could even smell the faint scent from her body.
His eyes flickered slightly, feeling the air around him become thinner, and his voice became lower, "Can you play the xiao flute?"
"A little bit." Xia Miaomiao stood up straight. The air seemed to rush in suddenly, and Hua Wuyou took a deep breath. He took out a bamboo xiao flute from the drawer.
"Play it for me to hear."
Xia Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, took the bamboo flute, and then took a look at the music score.
The melodious sound of the xiao flute flowed out. Hua Wuyou listened carefully. He did not expect Xia Miaomiao to be able to play the most difficult part.
He had studied this section of the music score for a long time but did not get the feeling he wanted. He did not expect Xia Miaomiao to blow it out easily after just one look.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes as he looked at Xia Miaomiao inquisitively.
Xia Miaomiao was working in the kitchen, wearing very simple clothes. For convenience, her hair was combed up and tied in a simple bun.
But there was no unpleasant smell of oil fumes on her. Hua Wuyou looked at her earnestly blowing the xiao flute, a strange feeling surged in his heart.
His eyes darkened as he reached out and grabbed the bamboo flute in Xia Miaomiao's hand.
"What's wrong?" Xia Miaomiao looked at him, somewhat puzzled.
"No need to play anymore, you go down first."
Xia Miaomiao paused, put down the flute in her hand, "Okay, remember to eat the snacks."
She did not stay long and left the study.
Hua Wuyou watched her petite figure and felt irritated in his heart.
Why did the little bunny stay by his side?
Was it really because she liked him?
...
Xia Miaomiao was about to return to her room when she unexpectedly ran into Bi Yue halfway through the garden.
Bi Yue seemed to be waiting for her here. She stood in the middle of the road with her arms crossed, blocking Xia Miaomiao's way, looking fierce.
"Well, the little cook is very awesome, not only can make snacks, play the xiao flute, but also... seduce men!" Bi Yue said sarcastically.
Xia Miaomiao looked at her without much expression on her face.
She did not want to bother with her and was about to pass her and leave, but how could Bi Yue let her leave?
She blocked Xia Miaomiao and pushed her.
Unexpectedly, Xia Miaomiao lost her balance and sat down directly on the ground.
Bi Yue was stunned for a moment, not expecting Xia Miaomiao to fall. She said uneasily, "It was you who didn't stand firm! I didn't use much force at all!"
Xia Miaomiao looked up at her, "What exactly do you want? How have I offended you?" Bi Yue looked down at her condescendingly, "You didn't offend me! But you actually dared to seduce the Palace Lord, you are really bold!"
Bi Yue thought Xia Miaomiao would desperately quibble, but unexpectedly Xia Miaomiao said frankly, "I like him, what's wrong with that?"
"You..." Xia Miaomiao's words left Bi Yue dumbfounded.
Xia Miaomiao calmly said, "Are there rules in the Palace of No Worries that you cannot like Hua Wuyou?"
"You... who let you directly call the Palace Lord by name?" Bi Yue pulled her up, pointed at her menacingly and said fiercely, "The Palace Lord and Purple Clothed Girl are a pair. Don't try to break them up!"
Xia Miaomiao smiled slightly, without getting angry at all, "Break up? Hua Wuyou has ten concubines. If he likes Purple Clothed Girl, she would have been his concubine long ago."
Bi Yue frowned, "What are you talking about? What do you mean the Palace Lord has ten concubines?! "
"Isn't that so? Hasn't Hua Wuyou married ten concubines already? If he likes Purple Clothed Girl, why hasn't he married her?" Xia Miaomiao retorted.
Bi Yue said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could the Palace Lord possibly have ten concubines? He hasn't even married a wife yet, where did the ten come from?"
Xia Miaomiao frowned slightly and looked at her, "What did you say? Hua Wuyou is not married?"
"Of course not! Even if the Palace Lord wants to get married, it can only be to Purple Clothed Girl. A little cook like you shouldn't even think about it! I warn you to stay away from the Palace Lord!"
Xia Miaomiao lowered her eyes, seemingly lost in thought, and did not answer Bi Yue's words. "Hey! Are you listening to me or not? If you dare to seduce the Palace Lord again, don't blame me for being impolite to you!"
Xia Miaomiao took Bi Yue's hand away and gently said, "I'm sorry, I like Hua Wuyou. I will do my best to get his affection."
"You... you are so shameless!"
Bi Yue really did not expect Xia Miaomiao to speak so bluntly. Moreover, her tone was gentle without any provocation. Bi Yue wanted to get angry but could not! It felt like punching cotton!
Xia Miaomiao ignored Bi Yue again and walked away from the garden. Bi Yue angrily stamped her feet behind.
After returning to the room, Xia Miaomiao found that when she fell just now, her hand was scraped on the stone.
She took out some ointment for abrasions that Xiao Han had prepared for her and applied it to her hand, while her mind kept thinking about what Bi Yue had just told her.
Hua Wuyou was not married.
No wonder she did not see the so-called ten concubines in the days since she arrived.
No wonder when she said she was willing to be his eleventh concubine, he rejected her.
Why did he say before that he had ten concubines?
Was it just to tease her?
Xia Miaomiao pinched the medicine bottle, inexplicably angry.
After a while, Xia Miaomiao finally let go of the medicine bottle.
Why should she get angry? Her purpose in coming here was for the treasure map.
She must not be blinded by Hua Wuyou's appearance. She had to remain sober at all times.
