World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess Chapter 67 - Real Identity

Chapter 67 Real Ident.i.ty

Jinghong stepped forward with the flagon and filled the cup for Su Muge, but she didn’t sit down.

“My Lord, would you like to hear me sing or watch me dance?”

Su Muge reached out and grabbed her wrist, forcing her to sit down beside her.

“Ah!”

“My Lord, what are you doing!?”

Jinghong was stronger than Su Muge had expected, but she didn’t get rid of Su Muge’s hand after all.

“My Lord, I’m just an entertainer!”

Letting out a chuckle, Su Muge held Jinghong’s waist from behind, buried her face in Jinghong’s neck and took a deep sniff. Su Muge felt Jinghong’s body stiffened.

Before Jinghong could break away, Su Muge let go of her.

Jinghong glared at Su Muge with fiery red eyes and turned around to open the door, intending to leave.

Su Muge made no moves. She poured herself a gla.s.s of wine and took a sip. The wine wasn’t strong but tasted a little sweet.

Of course, she wouldn’t waste the meal for which she had paid 100 Liang.

However, Jinghong stood still after opening the door as if she were fixed on the floor.

Su Muge grabbed the chicken leg on the table, took a bite and looked back curiously.

Surprisingly, a figure standing at the door seemed to have blocked Jinghong’s way!

“King, King of Jin, why, why are you here …” Looking at the tall man in front of her, Jinghong felt her soul lost and her heart almost jumping out of her chest.

Su Muge looked outside the door and suddenly froze at the sight of the man’s face.

The man, in a dark-red sword-sleeve tight-waist robe, with a white jade crown binding his black s.h.i.+ny long hair, had a delicate silhouette and a pair of deep dark eyes under his das.h.i.+ng eyebrows, as if he could see through one’s mind at a glance.

He was so slender and tall that simply by standing there, he was as daunting as the arrival of thousands of troops.

Su Muge suddenly choked on the chicken.

“Eh-hem, eh-hem …”

After coughing for a while, she finally swallowed down the chicken in her throat. With a glance at the man, Su Muge instantly turned around to look out of the window.

Xia Houmo!

Jinghong just called him the King of Jin!

This was his real ident.i.ty. Sure enough, only such appearance could match his temperament.

She didn’t expect him to be so handsome!

Xia Houmo’s gaze fell directly on the rigid figure instead of Jinghong.

“Step aside.”

Jinghong was stupefied and stepped aside with fear and joy. She had had a crush on him for the first sight. And this was the first time she could talk to him.

Xia Houmo walked to Su Muge and sat down, just to watch her silently.

Feeling like being scanned by X-ray and her whole body uncomfortable, Su Muge could only turn to look at Xia Houmo stiffly.

“I’ve heard a lot about King of Jin. Your Royal Highness, pay my respects to you.” While speaking, she stood up and saluted.

Xia Houmo was still watching her silently.

d.a.m.n it! It was so torturing!

“Well, it’s getting late. My mother might be calling me back for dinner now. Please excuse me.” Su Muge wanted to slip away; this man was so dangerous that she instinctively felt that she should stay away from him.

“Stop.”

Su Muge froze and stopped. “What else can I do for you, Your Royal Highness?”

“Sit down.”

Su Muge frowned and stayed put. “Your Royal Highness, Jinghong will be with you.”

Only then did Jinghong come to her sense. She stepped forward shyly and timidly and was about to pour wine for Xia Houmo.

“Get out!” Xia Houmo said in a cold voice.

Jinghong s.h.i.+vered and looked at Xia Houmo in sorrow, but she received no response.

Seeing Jinghong’s sn.o.bbery, Su Muge snorted coldly in her heart with dissatisfaction. Jinghong looked like a virgin of chast.i.ty with her just now, but at this moment, she couldn’t wait to stick to Xia Houmo!

Xia Houmo wasn’t a decent man, either; otherwise, he couldn’t have come here for fun!

Su Muge secretly scolded herself for being too coward in front of Xia Houmo. Her disguise as Su Lun had already been in the past, with no evidence left! So there was nothing Xia Houmo could do to her!

After constant psychological construction, Su Muge calmed down, pulled Jinghong close by her side and sat down.

“You are so unkind to women, Your Royal Highness. Jinghong is terrified of you.”

Su Muge pulled Jinghong to sit with her and asked her to pour a gla.s.s of wine. “Your Royal Highness, since you have the interest, let me propose a toast for you.” After that, she drank up the wine in the gla.s.s.

Xia Houmo slightly turned his dark eyes and touched the wine gla.s.s. Seeing this, Jinghong hurried forward to fill his gla.s.s. He remained silent and drank up the wine.

“Your Royal Highness, you are such a good drinker! Come on, fill up the gla.s.s!”

Since Xia Houmo entered the room, Xia Houkun in the opposite room had seen everything clearly.

“Xia Houmo? What is he doing here? ! Go and find out who is with him in the room!”

“Yes.”

In the room, Su Muge held the wine gla.s.s, feeling very dizzy.

Easily drunk, she wouldn’t touch any wine containing over 10% alcohol in the past.

Feeling this wine tasting like the fruit wine she had drunk before, she relaxed her vigilance and drank a lot. However, she didn’t expect it to have such a strong effect!

No, she couldn’t stay here any longer! Her remaining consciousness reminded her to leave as soon as possible!

Su Muge stood up with her hands supporting on the table and her eyes filled with moist drunkenness. “Your Royal Highness, I really have to go back now. Farewell.”

Although she felt a little dizzy, she could still move her body.

She staggered towards the door; however, hardly when she had opened the door did she b.u.mp into someone.

“Ah!”

“My Lord, please forgive me! Please forgive me! I didn’t mean to do this!”

Su Muge looked down and saw the stain on her clothes, and she frowned. Then she took a look at the girl who was kneeling in front of her. Then Su Muge crouched to watch her with her head tilted.

“You … (with a hiccup) you’ve stained my clothes!”

The maid was so scared that she almost hit the floor. She replied in despair, “My Lord, please forgive me! Please forgive me! I really didn’t mean it.”

Su Muge snorted and reached out to raise her chin.

The maid had a cute oval face, a pair of almond-shape eyes which were tearful and red at this time, and pursed cherry lips under a straight nose. Despite her pale complexion, her beauty couldn’t be hidden.

Different from Jinghong’s coquettish beauty, her implicit beauty could always fascinate people.

“My, My Lord…”

Su Muge could feel her shaking.

“Mi’er, how dare you offend my n.o.ble guest? ! Get out of the way. I’ll teach you a lesson afterwards!” Jinghong frowned and scolded coldly. Then she helped Su Muge up and smiled charmingly. “My Lord, please forgive her. This girl doesn’t know the rules. I hope you’ll let her go this time.”

With a grin, Su Muge leaned on Jinghong and pinched her waist. When her little hand was about to reach Jinghong’s chest, her wrist was suddenly caught by someone.

“Ouch! It hurts!”

Su Muge turned back and glared at the person, only to see Xia Houmo standing behind her with a grave look.

“Are you jealous, Your Royal Highness? Don’t worry, I won’t scramble for Jinghong with you tonight.”

Unexpectedly, Xia Houmo pulled her out of Jinghong’s arms, grabbed her waist and carried her on his shoulder.

“Eh!”

Su Muge was startled, only to feel her blood rus.h.i.+ng into her head and she became even dizzier.

She could only feel the scenery in front of her constantly flas.h.i.+ng back; when her feet touched the ground, she sobered up to a great extent.

She looked up to glare at Xia Houmo whose face was half-hidden in the darkness, feeling her blood rus.h.i.+ng up.

“What are you doing? ! It’s not a big deal to have light skills!”

She looked around and found herself in a courtyard surrounded by scary darkness and silence.

Xia Houmo looked at her angry widened eyes and suddenly reached his hand out towards her face.

Su Muge, still in anger, raised her hand and pushed his hand away. But Xia Houmo was so swift that Su Muge could only feel a sudden pain, then the mask on her face was torn off.

At this moment, Su Muge was completely sobered up!

She gazed at the dark eyes of Xia Houmo, with her heartbeat accelerating inexplicably.

“Miss Su goes to the brothel for fun, in disguise?” Xia Houmo’s emotionless voice sounded in the darkness.

Su Muge suddenly recovered her sense and grabbed the mask in his hand. “Special hobby. Your Royal Highness, it’s none of your business, isn’t it?”

Xia Houmo looked down at her. “It turns out that Miss Su has a hobby of putting on disguise. So can I say that in Shunyang prefecture, you changed your costume and did something you shouldn’t have done?”

Su Muge suddenly felt nervous. What did Xia Houmo mean? To warn her?

“I don’t know what you are talking about, Your Royal Highness!”

Xia Houmo looked at her with an elusive smile. “What’s the problem with General Lin’s illness? “

What?!

How could he know her purpose of going to Blossoms Tower? Was there anything else in the world that could be hidden from him?

But no matter what happened, she wouldn’t admit her disguising as Su Lun so as not to be threatened by others.

“Your Royal Highness, you know General Lin’s illness?”

“Yes.”

Su Muge realized that Xia Houmo must have found her to ask for information on General Lin’s illness.

“Please forgive me that I can’t tell you anything.” She had promised that a doctor would not easily disclose a patient’s information.

Xia Houmo raised his eyebrows and did not compel her.

“What have you discovered in the brothel, Miss Su?”

He had even perceived that she had got a clue in the brothel!

Su Muge pursed her lips, knowing that this man wouldn’t let her go easily if she revealed nothing tonight.

“The maid Mi’er is quite weird; she has a smell of medicine that she wants to cover up with fragrance.”

In such a place as Blossoms Tower, the guests coming in and out were either rich or n.o.ble. There was no way for a sick maid to continue working because she could spread the illness to the guests and incur unnecessary disputes.

The smell of medicine on Mi’er couldn’t even be covered up with such strong fragrance, which proved that she had been severely ill for a long time. However, it was quite abnormal that n.o.body in the brothel had found it!

“Are you going to look for her later?”
