The Cold Prince Dotes On His Wild Wife

Chapter 17: Entering the Palace

Hurriedly walking over, with the little tiger in her arms, Mo Youyou squatted in front of Yue Er and poked her arm. Yue Er quivered and suddenly sat up. When she saw her master, she was so excited and spoke in a choked voice:

“Miss, Miss, you’re still alive, that’s great, you’re still alive… Wu Wu Wu Yue Er was so scared that you would be gone. I thought you were in trouble again.”

Mo Youyou rolled her eyes at Yue Er as she stood up and looked at her. The little tiger in her arms scurried out, scaring Yue Er so much that she almost fainted.

“Yue Er, don’t be afraid. Come, come, this is just a cat, not a big bug! Look here!”

With that, Mo Youyou brought the little tiger back and showed it to Yue Er. Only then did Yue Er regain her senses, she sniffed and stood up, then asked:

“Miss, where did you go just now? Yue Er was so worried for you.”

“Aren’t I standing right in front of you!? Besides, what can happen to me in Prince Jing’s Manor? Come, let’s go back and prepare some hot water.”

The two of them entered the room. Yue Er quickly got two bowls of hot water and held the little tiger in front of the basin. Unexpectedly, the little tiger broke away from her hold and ran out.

“Yue Er, quickly catch it!”

Yue Er was startled for a moment, then anxiously followed the little tiger out. The two of them tossed and turned in the garden for a long time before she could finally capture the little tiger.

As the little tiger struggled with all its might, it also washed off the dye on its body. However….

Mo Youyou and Yue Er tilted their heads at the same time and looked at the little black tiger that was squatting in the bath towel and trembling non-stop. Yue Er said:

“Miss, its original color is so ugly.”

Mo Youyou laughed awkwardly, thinking about how she should explain it to that Glacier-face tomorrow…

Mo Youyou nodded at Yu Er and spoke, “Well, this is how it looks. Alright, it’s getting late now, go wash up and sleep!”

Early the next morning, Mo Youyou found a small tiger that was still grey in the garden. She carried it and brought it to the Northern Courtyard to look for Helian Yi.

Coincidentally, Wu Shang was at the entrance of the Northern Courtyard. Mo Youyou ran forward, but before she could pat Wu Shang’s shoulders, her neck already got bound by Wu Shang in a headlock. His movements were like an assassin.

Suddenly, a low and cold voice came out:

“Wu Shang!”

Only then did Wu Shang realize that he had caught the wrong person, and his heart tensed up, feeling the trace of hostility sweeping past Helian Yi’s eyes, he anxiously let go of Mo Youyou, said: “I’m sorry, Ninth Miss” and disappeared from the Northern Courtyard.

Mo Youyou took this chance to observed Helian Yi. He already had changed his clothes today, but it was still in the same shade of cool blue. And on his waist was still the warm yellow jade pendant.

Mo Youyou felt a chill run down her spine when she saw Helian Yi’s gaze. She looked at Yue Er beside her and gave her a look.

Yue Er understood and let go of the little tiger in her arms. It was only then that Helian Yi saw the strange creature on the ground.

His sharp eyes stared at Little Thing on the ground. His expression became increasingly grim as he shouted:

“Mo Youyou!”

“Ah? Royal Uncle, what’s wrong? You asked Youyou to wash it, and after Youyou finished bathing it, it became like this.”

The veins on Helian Yi’s forehead popped out. He truly regretted bringing this girl back yesterday! A shadow leaped pass by Mo Youyou’s head, and it landed at the entrance of the Northern Courtyard. An ice-cold voice soon followed.

“Bring Bai Xue and follow me into the palace!”

Mo Youyou turned to look at the sky as Helian Yi’s figure disappeared from her sight, and sighed,

“Wah… So Handsome!”

Yue Er reminded her, “Miss, Prince Jing has already left.”

“What? Gone? Then how do we get to the Imperial Palace?”

She had never been to the Imperial Palace before in her life! Today, she had to enjoy the tour. If she could return to her real home one day, she would be able to brag this to her senior brother and the others.

Just as she was thinking, one of Prince Jing’s guard walked over and respectfully said,

“Ninth Miss, the Prince ordered for this subordinate to send you to the palace.”

“What about Royal Uncle?”

“His Highness has something important to do. He’ll be here in a moment.”

“Then I’ll wait for Royal Uncle.”

“Ninth Miss, His Highness ordered this subordinate to send you to the palace first.”

Seeing the guard kneeling on the ground, waiting for her agreement, Mo Youyou scolded Helian Yi in her heart countless times.

“Humph! That Glacier Face! I’ve only been here for a day, and I still think that you’re a decent man. I didn’t expect that you genuinely hate me this much! Do you think I’m going to lose you?”

Glaring unhappily at the guards, Mo Youyou walked out of Northern Courtyard with Yue Er in tow.
