Chapter 936 Each with their own complex thoughts
???
When Xia Ningzhi saw Zhao Mu, her mind went blank for a moment.
what's the situation?
After he returned, didn't his mother say she was going to arrange a palace for him?
Why did she bring Zhao Mu here so late? Did something serious happen?
Seeing the questioning look from the Ninth Princess, Zhao Mu shrugged helplessly, indicating that he was also helpless.
"..."
Upon receiving the response, Xia Ningzhi suddenly realized why her mother had brought Zhao Mu to her palace.
But.....
its not right.
Mother, am I your biological son?
Why are you in such a hurry to hand me over to Zhao Mu?
Xia Ningzhi's mind went blank for a moment.
And it was at this moment that Xu Qingyan spoke up.
“Zhao Mu, your Uncle Xia and I aren’t some kind of outdated old fogies. Since you and Xiao Jiu are already Daoist partners, why don’t you just live together? Xiao Jiu has everything ready-made here, the best of everything.”
"May....."
"Mother..."
Just as Zhao Mu and Xia Ningzhi were about to speak, Xu Qingyan interrupted them, placing her hands on their backs and pushing them into the palace.
"Alright, it's late, get some rest."
"Xiao Zhao, keep it up! I've wanted to hold my grandson for a long time."
After giving Zhao Mu a thumbs-up, Xu Qingyan immediately signaled the palace maid to close the bedroom door.
In the bedroom.
Zhao Mu and Xia Ningzhi stared at each other, speechless for a moment.
"what's the situation?"
Xia Ningzhi looked at Zhao Mu with some confusion.
"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?!"
Zhao Mu shrugged, somewhat speechless, and plopped down on the chaise longue. He said, "Your mother said she was going to take me to her palace and that she wanted to talk to me alone. But who knew she'd bring me here instead!"
"By the way, are your father and mother in such a hurry to have a grandson?"
He was completely baffled by Xia Shang and Xu Qingyan.
She had never met those parents, yet they were pushing their daughter towards a man she had only met once, even wanting to get her pregnant immediately.
What is this?
He had considered many possibilities, but this was the only one he hadn't considered; it was truly beyond the comprehension of a normal person.
He's a father too; if his daughter brings someone home in the future, he'll be keeping a close eye on him.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Xia Ningzhi punched Zhao Mu lightly, then sat down in front of him with her back to him, muttering, "What do we do now? Are we really going to..."
On the way back in the carriage, she had considered the most extreme scenario and even said that if it really happened, she would let Zhao Mu use her innocence to deal with her father and mother as payment.
But when it actually happened, Xia Ningzhi panicked and became a little nervous.
Will it hurt? Will Zhao Mu cherish her? Will it really have no effect on her afterwards?
Her mind was now filled with a jumble of chaotic thoughts, and she had completely lost her composure.
"I'll just sleep here and make do for the night."
"is this okay?"
"What else, should I sleep with you?"
After making a somewhat helpless comment, Zhao Mu turned to the side, squinted his eyes, and urged, "Alright, go to sleep now."
“I…”
Xia Ningzhi sighed deeply, a hint of apology in her eyes, and said, "Brother Zhao, you've gone to so much trouble!"
"it's okay no problem!"
Zhao Mu waved his hand repeatedly.
Xia Ningzhi shook her head helplessly; this was the only option for now.
The palace was very large. Zhao Mu slept on a chaise longue in the outer room, and there was still a lot of space inside. There was an extremely luxurious and comfortable phoenix chaise longue. The palace maids had not all been driven out, and there were still a few serving by the bath.
Zhao Mu arrived very quickly, so Xia Ningzhi didn't even have time to take a bath.
She was just about to come here, and had just taken off her coat when she heard her mother's voice. She quickly put it back on and went outside, only to find Zhao Mu there.
"Ninth Princess, everything is ready. This servant will assist you in changing!"
Two palace maids immediately stepped forward and bowed to Xia Ningzhi.
"Ok!"
Xia Ningzhi first glanced back at the outer room, which was separated by several layers of barriers. Moreover, she believed that Zhao Mu, with his character, would never do such a despicable thing as peeping. So she nodded and signaled the palace maid to take action.
"Ninth Princess, won't the Prince Consort bathe with you?"
One of the palace maids asked curiously.
"He doesn't like being served by outsiders. After I finish bathing, you can all leave. He will come over on his own."
"Yes, Ninth Princess."
The two palace maids didn't dare to ask any more questions. After helping Xia Ningzhi change her clothes, they watched her walk step by step towards the bath.
"Ninth Princess, you are so beautiful! Your skin is as white as mutton fat jade!"
Whether intentionally or not, one of the palace maids suddenly exclaimed.
"Keep your voice down!"
Xia Ningzhi was startled, afraid that Zhao Mu outside would hear her.
But it's too late.
Zhao Mu heard it very clearly, and even subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound. His pupil technique was activated involuntarily, allowing him to see the scene of Xia Ningzhi entering the bath.
Even though it was just a view of her back, it was still breathtakingly beautiful.
Xia Ningzhi was tall and had near-perfect proportions; every part of her was of the highest standard of beauty, making Zhao Mu unable to look away.
"How despicable I am!"
Zhao Mu cursed himself inwardly, then took a deep breath and looked away; if he looked any longer, he'd set the place on fire.
Xia Ningzhi trusted Zhao Mu and believed he wouldn't peek, but Zhao Mu didn't, leaving her feeling somewhat disappointed and conflicted.
Maybe I'm not pretty enough!
Xia Ningzhi leaned against the wall of the bath, and two palace maids carefully and meticulously bathed and scrubbed her body. Occasionally, she would make some soft sounds because she felt so comfortable, which clearly reached Zhao Mu's ears.
"Ninth Princess, what are you doing? Are you doing this on purpose?"
Zhao Mu looked at him strangely, with a feeling that things were about to go wrong.
The bath lasted for about 15 minutes. With a splashing sound, Zhao Mu knew that Xia Ningzhi had come out of the bath, and his eyes involuntarily turned to look in that direction.
Thinking to myself, since I didn't notice it before, I probably won't notice it now either.
And that one look completely stunned him.
So beautiful!
He had really underestimated Xia Ningzhi's beauty before. She was no less beautiful than the silly senior sister and the others. She had a top-notch appearance, especially her figure and the noble air she exuded in every move, which gave her a special kind of beauty.
"I can't watch anymore! I can't watch anymore!"
Zhao Mu clearly felt his blood and qi becoming turbulent.
Just then, Xia Ningzhi's voice rang out.
"Okay, all of you, please step aside."
"Yes, Ninth Princess!"
The next moment, a series of footsteps sounded, and the few remaining palace maids waiting in the palace were quickly retreating.
Just as Zhao Mu was trying his best to calm himself down, a very pleasant scent suddenly wafted on the wind and entered his nostrils.
"Zhao Mu, Zhao Mu!"
Xia Ningzhi was pushing him. He immediately turned around and, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the Ninth Princess, who was only wearing a thin nightgown and had her hair disheveled, standing close by.
