Chapter 658: In Return For A Kiss

Chapter 658 - In Return For A Kiss

I thought it was something serious!

Ji Yunshu shot her a calm glance and nodded. “Yes, I’m a woman.”

“What?” Tang Si exclaimed. Although she had figured it out earlier, she was still taken aback to hear it from Ji Yunshu herself. She quickly added, “This is just too surprising!"

Haha! Ji Yunshu pursed her lips, and flashed a smile.

Look at the way she smiles… how could she not have realized how feminine Ji Yunshu was until today?

Then…

“Oh, my god. To think that I actually...” had a crush on you. Embarrassed, Tang Si’s cheeks flushed red.

Upon seeing Tang Si’s adorable reaction, Ji Yunshu chuckled, and gave Tang Si a gentle forehead flick. “That’s enough. Stop being so flustered already. After all, it might not be a bad thing for you to know that I’m a woman. When we arrive at the capital, don’t let anyone find out about this. Otherwise, you'll get me into a lot of trouble. Do you understand?”

Tang Si nodded earnestly. “You can count on me. Who do you take me for? I am great at keeping my lips shut. I will definitely bring your secret to the grave.” Tang Si giggled again.

For the entire day, the young lady was unusually excitable. While everyone was having their meal, Tang Si held the bowl in her hands as she stuffed her face, all the while giggling with her head lowered.

Mo Ruo, who sat opposite to her, shot her a confused glance. “Why are you giggling like a fool?”

What on earth! How dare you call me a fool? Tang Si put down the bowl and the chopsticks in her hand. Then, she glared at Mo Ruo as she violently kicked him from under the table.

A loud thud resounded as the kick directly hit Mo Ruo's knee.

Mo Ruo covered his mouth, suppressing a yell. He grimaced in agony and his eyes were teared up.

In front of him, Tang Si continued to laugh even more merrily.

That did not last long as Tang Si quickly felt sorry for the anguished Mo Ruo. She stood up from her seat, leaned forward, and asked in a worried tone, “I… I didn't do it on purpose. Did I hurt you badly?”

“What do you think?” Mo Ruo spoke through his clenched teeth.

“I…” She stuttered, appearing concerned. “You shouldn't have teased me. Let me see how bad your injury is.”

As she spoke, she walked to the other side of the table and reached out for Mo Ruo’s trousers.

“What are you doing?”

“Take off your trousers and let me have a look at it.”

“Why do I have to take off my trousers?” Mo Ruo stared at her in disbelief.

“How can I tell how bad your injury is if you don't take off your trousers?”

“My knee is fine.”

“You looked like you were in excruciating pain!”

“I was just acting.”

“Quit the nonsense and take off your trousers!” They started a tug of war, creating a hilarious scene.

The guards around them were all amused by what they just saw, but were also trying to suppress their laughter. The legendary Doctor Mo is going to have a long journey ahead.

The inn was buzzing with activity, everyone having fun in “joy and harmony”.

Meanwhile, outside the building, Ji Yunshu, who had been stuck lying on her bed for a very long time, sat on the stairs outside the building to enjoy the breeze. Jing Rong was beside her, keeping her company.

Countless shining stars adorned the night sky of the 8th month. With a thick cloak draped around her shoulders, Ji Yunshu rested her head on Jing Rong's shoulder.

When they heard Tang Si and Mo Ruo's squabble, a gossip session began.“Come to think of it, Tang Si is a decent young lady.”

Jing Rong chuckled before he asked, “Why would you say so?”

“Mo Ruo has always kept Miss Kong Yu in his heart. Although he has never said a thing, both of us can tell. Miss Tang is the exact opposite of Miss Kong Yu, but I reckon she is very well suited to Mo Ruo.”

“Mo Ruo will not fall for a girl like her.” Jing Rong immediately stated.

However, Ji Yunshu disagreed. “Although you grew up together, I am sure that my judgement is correct.” Her tone was exceptionally confident.

Jing Rong did not argue with her. Instead, he pulled her closer into his loving embrace. “I don't know how Mo Ruo feels about her, but this prince knows that my love to you is real, and it's invincible.”

Ji Yunshu lifted her gaze to look at him as she put on a blissful smile.

“Oh, yes. Mo Ruo said that you asked him to relay a message to this prince. What is it about?” He asked curiously.

Ji Yunshu shook her head. “That shall remain a secret. After all, I'm still in one piece now, aren’t I?”

You're right. Jing Rong did not press on. He knew that those were supposed to be Ji Yunshu’s final words to him, and he was not willing to hear them either. Around them, the wind started to rise. Worried about her injury, Jing Rong helped her into her room.

Two days later, Ji Yunshu had almost fully healed. Without further ado, they continued their journey to the capital.

In the carriage, Jing Rong looked out of the window, toward the back of the cavalcade. Then, he closed the curtain again.

He turned to look at Ji Yunshu, who was reading ‘Solo Expedition Excerpts’ gifted to her by Little Xiyue. She flipped through a few pages last night and fell in love with it. Since she had a lot of free time during the journey, she decided to read the book.

“Is this book interesting?” Jing Rong asked.

Ji Yunshu replied with a nod.

“We also have this book in the library of the imperial palace. Once, this prince returned to the imperial palace, hoping to find a military book. Coincidentally, I saw this book and I brought it with me. Eventually…” He pretended as if he was recalling an important memory, “I think I used it to prop up a wobbly table.”

Pfft… Rendered speechless by Jing Rong's statement, Ji Yunshu scowled at him. How dare you use such a good book to fix your table!

Jing Rong snatched her book and continued, “What's so interesting about this book? Isn't it better to look at this prince?”

“Give it back to me.”

Jing Rong smirked. “ This prince will give it back to you, in return for a kiss.”

“You're such a rogue,” Ji Yunshu scolded.

Surprisingly, the lad laughed even more joyously. He leaned forward, and Ji Yunshu was caught off guard by the face that suddenly filled her field of vision. This is indeed a handsome face. It's indeed more interesting than the ‘Solo Expedition Excerpts’.

But… Ji Yunshu turned around, and averted her gaze. Then, she reached out and said, “Stop fooling with me. Go back to your seat and hand me my book.”

“I told you to stop reading and focus only on this prince. Be a good girl.” He stuffed the book into his sleeve, and Ji Yunshu was rendered speechless again. This man can really be too unreasonable sometimes.

Jing Rong was upset by Ji Yunshu's reply. He wrapped one of his arms around her waist, and pulled her forward. She lost her balance and fell right into his embrace.

Ji Yunshu pursed her lips and her cheeks were flushed red. The man’s rhythmic breath hit her nose, then her cheeks, leaving her tingly all over. Somehow, she recalled what happened the other night, when they shared the same bed. Her cheeks burnt even hotter.

Upon seeing Ji Yunshu's rosy cheeks, Jing Rong was finally pleased. He released her, took out ‘Solo Expedition Excerpts’ and returned it to her.

“Fine. This prince will stop disturbing you. Enjoy your book.”

Jing Rong took his seat again, closed his eyes, and leaned back to take a nap. The wicked smile remained on the corner of his lips.

Ji Yunshu did not know if she should feel upset or entertained. The only thing she knew was that she could no longer focus on her book. She barely read through a few pages, but digested nothing. Eventually, she gave up on reading and placed the book aside. She opened the curtain and looked out of the window.

If they continued to travel at this pace, they would soon arrive at Jinjiang. At that moment, she wondered how Wei Yi was doing.
