The general's wife continued with a smile, "Look, your cousin is shy."

Then he signaled to his niece with his eyes.

Miss Li glanced at Xu Guangzhu shyly and whispered softly, "My cousin looks familiar to me too."

A blush appeared on her face, making her look particularly pretty and charming against her fair face.

Xu Guangzhu still didn't react, just responded with a "hmm".

Mu Tangxi sighed in her heart, so what was she still doing here? She was a little hungry.

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming a little tense, Xu Jingshu didn't want to get involved anymore, so she smiled and said goodbye, "Seeing that you guys are having such a good chat, Xi'er and I are really disturbing you here, so we'll leave first."

The general's wife smiled unchanged and said intimately, "Don't go, I still have something to talk to you alone!"

"Why not let the three juniors go out and play together!"

The smile on Mu Tangxi's face gradually disappeared. He thought he could leave here immediately and have lunch happily, but he didn't expect...

What are you playing!

The general's wife just wanted her cousin to get closer to that girl! So she used her child as a tool to prove their innocence!

It would be bad if word got out that two unmarried men and women were alone together, so why not just add a child?!

How on earth did the general's wife come up with this idea?

Just as Xu Jingshu was about to frown, she saw the general's wife's meaningful look.

After all, she needed help from others, and it was not easy for her to refuse such a small matter, so she could only agree, "Xi'er, go out with them. I have something to discuss with the general's wife."

She also needs the General's Mansion to help Jinfeng to have a smooth career as a military commander!

Besides, Xier just needed to accompany them for a walk, which was nothing.

Xu Guangzhu originally thought that he only needed to sit for a while before he could go back, but...

He suddenly wanted to turn around and run away!

Although Xu Guangzhu didn't say anything, his entire aura was overwhelming.

Mu Tangxi took a deep breath. At worst, she could find an excuse to leave them later. "Okay, mother."

Miss Li was not surprised at all and nodded with a smile on her face.

Then the four of them shifted their attention to Xu Guangzhu.

Seo Kwang-soo: …

"Yes, mother."

Xu Guangzhu bowed neatly, then turned and walked out.

The general's wife frowned slightly and turned to look at Miss Li, "Go quickly, your cousin is a bit impatient."

Miss Li's cheeks flushed slightly, and after hurriedly bowing, she quickened her pace and followed.

Mu Tangxi didn't need her mother to urge her. She bowed and said goodbye smoothly and followed them.

However, after leaving the yard, her pace slowed down.

It doesn't matter whether she's there or not, so she's not in a hurry at all.

Mu Tangxi turned to Dong Zhu who had followed him and said, "Go get some cakes."

She's hungry!

After hearing this, Dong Zhu walked quickly towards the banquet.

Now that’s the only place where we can get the pastries the fastest, we can’t let the lady wait too long!

Mu Tangxi had not taken a few steps when he saw his cousin and Miss Li standing not far away, motionless.

She hesitated in her heart and slowly stopped.

Who knows if they are talking to get closer now, she doesn't want to stand between them awkwardly and listen to them talking about private matters.

But when Xu Guangzhu caught a glimpse of her out of the corner of his eye, he walked quickly towards her, as if he wanted to get rid of Miss Li?

Mu Tangxi kept thinking in her heart: Don’t come over here, don’t come over here, don’t come over here…

Unfortunately it was no use, as her cousin came to see her anyway.

Mu Tangxi tried to be calm and asked, "Cousin, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Don't come to her if you have nothing to do!

As soon as Xu Guangzhu opened his mouth, a voice called out from behind him, "Cousin! Wait for me."

Xu Guangzhu suddenly lost the desire to speak.

He has no reaction to who he will marry in the future, but he is willing to cultivate feelings.

He only wants to be able to treat his future wife with respect and that she doesn't need his company on a regular basis.

And if they developed feelings for each other and then he died on the battlefield, wouldn't his wife be even more sad?

It’s better to be a stranger.

Miss Li felt a little aggrieved, "Cousin, why are you walking so fast?"

Then he secretly glared at Mu Tangxi.

Mu Tangxi:……?

What did she do?

She just wanted to have lunch, why did it turn out like this?

Aren't they hungry?

Or had they already finished eating and she was the only one who was still stupidly hungry?!

Mu Tangxi looked at Miss Li with cold eyes.

By the way, I glanced at my cousin with a forced smile. He is such a trouble!

Xu Guangzhu was thinking about what excuse he could use to leave here, when he suddenly felt cold all over.

His eyes were blank. Did he catch a cold?

"Cousin, why don't you say anything?" Miss Li's eyes became moist. "Do you hate me?"

Xu Guangzhu twitched his lips, "...No."

There was a hint of despair in his eyes.

Mu Tangxi really wanted to leave here, and just as she quietly took a step back, her cousin's sharp eyes swept over her.

Mu Tangxi sighed inwardly and said with a pitiful look on his face, "Cousin, I'm hungry. Why don't I go eat first and you guys chat first!"

But Xu Guangzhu's eyes lit up, "That's right, I'm hungry too, let's go together!"

Miss Li followed suit, "I'm hungry too."

Mu Tangxi's mouth froze, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's go together!"

Xu Guangzhu glanced at his cousin in confusion. Why did he feel that her tone was a little strange?

The moment Mu Tangxi turned around, the expression on his face disappeared instantly. Don’t let me find an opportunity to cheat you in the future!

As for the place where the three of them will have their meal, is there any other place besides the banquet?

The only thing that made Mu Tangxi happy was that the three of them didn’t have to eat at the same table!

Otherwise, others would know at a glance what was going on between my cousin and Miss Li.

By chance, Mu Tangxi ran into Dong Zhu who was holding pastries. Her eyes lit up, "Hurry, Dong Zhu, I want to eat!"

"Okay, Miss!" Dong Zhu breathed a sigh of relief. She was just worried about when Miss could have lunch. Fortunately, Miss tricked them over, otherwise, how long would Miss have been hungry!

Xu Guangzhu next to him looked at the screen with bright eyes. He was finally back here!

Miss Li watched the two people leave quickly and stomped her feet in anger.

Ji Qichen looked at his study partner who was walking towards him in surprise. Why did he feel like he was being chased by a ghost?

It's been a while since we last met. What happened to Xu Guangzhu?

Xu Guangzhu sat down next to His Highness, picked up the tea on the table and poured it into his mouth.

Ji Qichen looked confused, "Kwang Soo, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Guangzhu, who finally took a breath, had a headache when he thought of what happened just now. "My mother wanted to match me with Miss Li, and just now she asked Miss Li and I to take my cousin out for a walk."

"Why are you still talking about your cousin? No wonder your cousin looked like she had escaped a disaster when I saw her just now!"

Ji Qichen understood and laughed too.
