Chapter 38.2 – Cute As A Kitten (2)
Zhi Ting instantly choked. She wanted to say that this was Her Highness’s bedroom and it was inappropriate for a man to stay there. But looking at Qi Yang’s expression, how could she not know this? Nay, she helped Lu Qipei here on purpose!
What did Her Highness plan to do? Did she really covet this youth’s beauty so much? His Majesty hadn’t even conferred her hand in marriage yet!
Zhi Ting’s mind crumbled. She was in a trance and felt that the Royal Highness The Princess in front of her seemed very unfamiliar. She was not the innocent little princess she had been serving for so many years!
But Qi Yang didn’t care about what Zhi Ting had been thinking. She waved at her and said, “Get some people to prepare some hot water for a bath.”
Zhi Ting’s mind was going wild, and when she heard such an order, she almost lost her mind. Fortunately, when she raised her head and saw Qi Yang’s gaze, the coldness in the latter’s eyes instantly woke her up, and she quickly turned around to give out orders.
But when stepped out of the bedroom, Zhi Ting secretly pressed her chest, her frightened little heart still beating wildly. Perhaps she was mistaken – how could a princess of royal descend really be naïve? She just hadn’t grown up yet.
Qi Yang was a bit of a clean freak. After tiring and sweating herself out helping Lu Qipei, she naturally wanted to take a bath. After she bathed, she wiped Lu Qipei’s face and hands again.
The fake coachman that she had captured earlier had also been interrogated. Zhi Ting came in to report and saw Qi Yang wiping Lu Qipei’s hands. She was very patient, rubbing her fingers one by one.
Lu Qipei had a very beautiful hand. Other than small calluses left from holding a brush on her fingertips and from holding a bow and sword on her palm, her whole hand was thin and slender, as white and clear as the finest white jade. It really made people feel reluctant to let go of.
At this moment, the drunkard was acting up again. As Qi Yang wiped her hands, she began playing with Qi Yang’s fingers. Qi Yang wasn’t angry either, and would touch her in response from time to time. Rather than wiping hands, the two were just flirting!
Zhi Ting just couldn’t watch it, nor could she imagine that such a gentle and polite young man could behave like this when he was drunk… Although that said, the two of them were very beautiful, so they would be eye-catching no matter what they were doing.
In the end, Qi Yang seemed to dislike the fact that there was another person in the room and said, “How did the interrogation go?”
Hearing her suddenly speak, Lu Qipei looked up blankly. Her eyes were wet and looked as if it was covered in light. Qi Yang pushed her back with her forehead and said, “It’s okay, I was not talking to you.”
Lu Qipei laid down on Qi Yang’s bed in a daze and cutely said ‘oh’, but she somehow sounded aggrieved.

Qi Yang pursed her lips and wanted to laugh, but held it back because there was still an outsider in the room. Her gaze turned serious as she looked at Zhi Ting who hadn’t replied yet, and the latter quickly replied, “We’ve interrogated the coachman, he was someone sent by Liu Chen. Today, he waited outside the House of Happiness just for Young Master Lu. Once he got in the carriage, he would whisk him away to Spring1 Fragrance Pavilion…”
You could tell what kind of place the Spring Fragrance Pavilion was just from its name. Zhi Ting also inquired when she received the report and learnt that the Spring Fragrance Pavilion was not just a brothel – it was the most prestigious brothel in the capital!
Liang State’s regulations were pretty loose, and officials weren’t prohibited from going to brothels, but a person’s character would be reflected from various aspects. So those who kept themselves clean would never set foot in these kinds of places, let alone Lu Qipei who was currently involved with a princess.
Not to mention the Emperor had just met Lu Qipei today. Maybe he sent someone to observe her secretly, and if they found out that she went to a brothel at night…
Qi Yang instantly understood Liu Chen’s aim. I was to damage Lu Qipei’s reputation and ruin her impression in front of herself and the Emperor. So meticulous and sinister!
Her Royal Highness’s gaze instantly turned dangerous, making Zhi Ting who was watching from the side nervous. She hurriedly lowered her head and waited for Her Highness’s order. Lu Qipei on the other side was still in a daze and couldn’t catch anything clearly, but she detected Qi Yang’s displeasure.
The dizzy drunkard regained her presence and shook Qi Yang’s fingers, comforting her in a soft voice. “Your Highness, don’t be angry.”
It was just five simple words, but Zhi Ting felt as if Her Royal Highness The Princess’s anger immediately dissipated like a balloon that had been punctured. She was a little surprised, and then she heard Qi Yang say as if to drive her out, “Forget it, we’ll talk about this tomorrow. You can leave now.”
Zhi Ting raised her head to look at Lu Qipei who was lying obediently on Qi Yang’s bed, and hesitated.
Lu Qipei seemed to sense Zhi Ting’s gaze and raised her head to look at her, her face blank and innocent.
In the next instant, Lu Qipei’s eyes were covered by Qi Yang. The latter didn’t say anything, but her eyes looked sharply at Zhi Ting. The latter didn’t dare to say anything else when she saw this; she lowered her gaze and bowed her head quickly, then retreated with an ashen face.
Probably because she saw that Lu Qipei was not sober, Qi Yang also became more domineering. She leaned towards Lu Qipei’s ear and said, “You’re not allowed to look at other women in the future!” After a pause, she added, “Other men too!”
Lu Qipei blinked, her long eyelashes tickling Qi Yang’s palm. “Oh.”
Satisfied, Qi Yang rubbed Lu Qipei’s head, who was being as cute as a kitten and rubbed against her palm in response. Qi Yang’s heart softened, and for a moment she even regretted her decision to not let Lu Qipei drink again.
