Prince, You Are So Cheap Chapter 37

Xiao Lian did not understand why the people guarding HongSan all returned back to their respective positions within the span of the night.
She only knew that Master must have forced HongSan to do something he refused to do, just by the look of him when he ate dinner last night.
That expression of him gnas.h.i.+ng teeth, it was obvious to see that the sacrifice HongSan did for this matter was considerably huge.

Otherwise, he won’t acted like that when he heard that WuXin doesn’t have any serious problem (injuries), just smiling weakly.
Not like him previously, laughing happily with relief.

There was something, within the span of the night, has sorrowfully changed.

The next day, under the leading of Ning Huang, Xiao Lian and HongSan went directly to the East Palace.
The moment HongSan saw Ning Huang, the smile on his face was so pale.

But once he saw Zhu WuXin, he immediately turned back to his past spirited self.

“WuXin, your expression looked much better.”

Zhu WuXin ate the fruits in her hand, and threw it away after a few bites.

“I eat well, sleep well and dress well. Of course, better now.”

“By the way, Brother, you shouldn’t make any trouble. Going against that old man need methods, why use hunger strike? That is not worth it.”

Hearing concern in her words, HongSan smiled and patted her head, “My little WuXin has grown up, know how to concern with other people.”

“Don’t interrupt me.”

“Yo oh, even dare to be fierce towards me. Quite a big courage.”

HongSan pretended to be angry, pinched her face a bit saying, “Don’t worry, I actually ate until full before coming. Father has already released me.”

Zhu WuXin tilted a glance at him, “Is it real or fake?”

“When did I ever lied to you?”

Knowing that he was all right, Zhu WuXin let go of her worries, jokingly said, “Don’t bully people with memory loss ah.”

“Should one day I remembered that you lied to me before, be careful that ‘I’ll ask you to take it home if you can’t eat it all’[1]“.

HongSan raised up his hands in surrender, “All right, all right.”

“I’ll said it, satisfied now?”

“That’s right, you’ll have to win the talk over me. Then both of us can go out to open a shop to ‘speak script’[2]“

Everywhere she went, Zhu WuXin will be looking for food.

In the modern days, her goal was to die thin.
However, now her goal is to die after being fattened.

Otherwise, it’s too painful to sleep at night.
This body was bones all over, it’s really uncomfortable to sleep ah.

HongSan then stopped talking nonsense with her and continued straight to the point, “Today I’m here to tell you something.”

Seeing HongSan suddenly gotten serious, being affected by him Zhu Wuxin also sat upright and still waiting for what’s coming, “What is the matter?”
