The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Chapter 118: Good at coaxing people

Normally, Nan Wangyu and Lu Lingxi were going to stay at the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion tonight, so after lunch, they did not rush to pack up and go back to the Prince's Mansion, but strolled around and chatted in the mansion. Lu Lingxi talked the most about Chang Wei and Xiaohua, where they used to love hiding and playing; where they hid their precious bones; when they were young and ignorant, they always liked to urinate everywhere to mark places, so the plants everywhere in the yard grew very well, even the osmanthus trees in the Lingxi Garden grew visibly taller under the nourishment of Chang Wei and Xiaohua.

Whenever he talked about Chang Wei and Xiao Hua, Lu Lingxi was happy and excited. After he had basically toured the entire Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, Lu Lingxi suddenly felt a little sad. He sat in the pavilion, looking at the surface of the artificial lake and murmured, "If I had known earlier, I would have brought them back today. They will definitely have a rare chance to come back in the future."

I don't know whether she was sad that Chang Wei and Xiao Hua would rarely have the chance to come back in the future, or whether she was sad that she would rarely have the chance to come back and live here.

Nan Wangyu was just about to comfort her: Lingxi, don’t be sad, you can come back to see your father-in-law and brother anytime you want, I will accompany you back.

At this time, Liu Lu ran over blankly, not paying attention to what they were saying, and directly reported: "Miss, dinner is ready, Master Yu Gang has woken up, and the master has sent someone to call you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to have dinner."

Nan Wangyu was a little unhappy that what he was about to say was interrupted, so he said to Liu Lu in a somewhat unkind tone: "Why are you still calling Lingxi 'Miss'? You should call her 'Crown Princess' or 'Madam'."

Liu Lu could hear the dissatisfaction in the Crown Prince's tone and was about to kneel down to apologize. Lu Lingxi stood up to stop her and said, "Okay, she just got used to calling you that over the past decade or so, and she will change over time. Why are you suddenly angry?"

Hearing Lu Lingxi's words, Nan Wangyu's tone improved a lot, "I didn't ask her to apologize, I just reminded her." Then he asked Liu Lu, who was half squatting, to stand up and said, "Hurry up and don't call the wrong person next time."

Liu Lu didn't understand why the Crown Prince was so angry, but it was right for the servant to apologize when the master was angry. It was just that her mistress had been so nice recently that she almost forgot about it and spoke so casually most of the time.

So Liu Lu quickly bowed her head and admitted her mistake, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong, and I will never call you that again."

Seeing that Nan Wangyu's face had finally returned to normal, Lu Lingxi quickly changed the subject and said to Liu Lu, "You just said that Daddy asked you to come and call us for dinner, right? Then let's go over there now."

Then he gestured to Nan Wangyu to invite him to go ahead, and said, "Your Highness, please go first!"

Nan Wangyu then realized that his behavior just now might make Lu Lingxi think that he was a person who attached great importance to the rule of male superiority and female inferiority. He would not dare to be too casual in his own room in the future. This would definitely be detrimental to the development of their relationship.

So, pretending not to understand what Lu Lingxi meant, he took her hand and said softly, "Well, let's go!"

When the two arrived at the restaurant, Lu Yi, Lu Yugang and Gu Yan'er were already seated, in the same seats as at noon.

After the two of them sat down, they began to eat. After Lu Yu had sobered up, he was no longer as talkative as he was during lunch. Lu Lingxi wanted to ask, "Brother, are you sober?" But no one was talking, and she didn't want to speak suddenly.

At this time, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that this group of people still needs someone who is talkative, otherwise it would be quite awkward if no one spoke. Although my brother was a bit noisy at noon, the whole dining process was relaxed and enjoyable.

When Nan Wangyu picked up some food for Lu Lingxi again, he saw that the food he had just picked up for her was not touched, so he asked, "Lingxi, why aren't you eating? Don't you like the food I picked up for you? What do you like to eat?"

Lu Lingxi: "No, they are all my favorite foods. I was just thinking about my brother."

Lu Yugang looked at his clothes suspiciously to see if there was anything wrong with them, then touched the corners of his mouth to see if there were any food residues. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he asked, "What's wrong with me?"

"I was thinking that Brother is like two different people at noon and now. Can being drunk really make a person's personality so different? Brother, do you still remember what you said at noon?"

Gu Yan'er smiled secretly and said in a low voice: "Let's see if you dare to drink so much in the future?"

Lu Yugang blushed a little and lowered his head and said, "I don't remember."

Lu Lingxi said in amazement: "Is it true that I can lose memory? I can't remember anything? I have never experienced that feeling before, I really want to try it."

Lu Yi interrupted her unrealistic thoughts, "Your brother is a man, what's wrong with drinking a little? Why are you asking endless questions like you're interrogating a criminal? And you're a girl, just have a few sips, don't get drunk."

"Oh, I see!" Lu Lingxi replied perfunctorily.

Then Lu Yi was afraid that his new son-in-law might misunderstand Lingxi, so he said to Nan Wangyu: "Lingxi is just too curious. She doesn't usually drink."

Nan Wangyu smiled and said, "You know, I like Lingxi no matter what he is like."

This sudden confession made Lu Lingxi, who had become somewhat accustomed to Nan Wangyu's way of expressing himself in the past few days, shudder and feel a chill. Then he said with a fake smile, "Thank you!"

Nan Wangyu smiled, and before she could say "You're welcome!", Gu Yan'er on the opposite side exclaimed, "Your Highness the Crown Prince and Lingxi have such a good relationship. Your Highness the Crown Prince really knows how to make people happy, unlike Yu Gang who can't say a word for a long time on weekdays, and doesn't know how to comfort people when he's angry."

If Lu Lingxi and Gu Yan'er were chatting privately, Lu Lingxi would have to reply, "Yes, he is very good at coaxing people, so there are so many women in the Prince's Mansion who are willing to follow him wholeheartedly. Brother is a little dull in emotional matters, but you are the only person he cares about. If I had to choose, I would definitely choose a man like brother."

But there were so many people here, and in front of Nan Wangyu himself, Lu Lingxi smiled awkwardly and didn't deny: "Yes, he is quite good at coaxing people."

The conversation here stopped for a moment. Not knowing how to continue, Lu Yi turned to Gu Yan'er and said, "Yan'er, it's getting late now, and Yu Gang is sober. You should go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion after dinner. It's not that your uncle is chasing you away, but the reputation of a daughter's family is still very important. Although you and Yu Gang are engaged, you haven't been married yet. If you live in the mansion all the time, it will not be good for the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion. And your father drank a lot yesterday. Although your mother is looking after him, you, as a daughter, should also take care of him and show your filial piety. After you get married, you can't always stay by your parents' side to show your filial piety."

Gu Yan'er quickly stood up and replied respectfully: "Uncle Lu, Yan'er understands your intentions and will not let your imagination run wild. I will go back after dinner."

Lu Yi nodded with satisfaction: "Yeah, good boy, I'll let Yu Gang take you there later."

Then he said to Lu Yugang, "Make sure to send Yan'er to the Prime Minister's Mansion safely, and come back immediately after that."

After explaining all these things, Lu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion: "Now the lifelong affairs of my two children have been settled. After Yu Gang and Yan Er get married, I can continue to go back to the west to defend with peace of mind."
