Seeing Ling Xiyue asked to resign, a hint of disappointment flashed in He Tingxi's eyes, but he still nodded in agreement.

"Okay, go back and rest."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

He Tingxi watched Ling Xiyue leave, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

He took out two handkerchiefs from his arms, both of which belonged to Ling Xiyue. He looked down and muttered: "I have been searching for you. It turns out that the person I am looking for has always been by my side. Ling Xiyue, I finally found you. Unfortunately, you don't remember me. Since you don't remember me, let's wait a little longer. I will tell you when the time is right."

As soon as he thought of his conversation with Ling Xiyue, a bright smile appeared on his face.

……

After Ling Xiyue returned to the courtyard, Xiaoyin came up to her and asked with concern: "Miss, what happened? Did His Highness scold you?"

Ling Xiyue shook her head and smiled, "Not only did he not fine me, he also promised to give me 100 taels of silver."

"Really? That's great, miss. Tell me what's going on, okay?" Xiaoyin acted coquettishly, her eyes full of anticipation.

"it is good."

After Ling Xiyue and Xiaoyin walked into the room, Ling Xiyue sent the other maids away before telling Xiaoyin what happened.

Xiaoyin was shocked when she heard this and analyzed: "Miss, if that's the case, then the reason why His Highness didn't punish you is actually because you helped him before and he's grateful to you, right?"

Ling Xiyue nodded, "It should be."

"Miss, in the future, His Highness will definitely respect you, and we will have a good life." Xiaoyin said excitedly.

"I thought so too." Ling Xiyue smiled.

"Miss, will Butler Xiao send 100 taels of silver over tomorrow?" Xiaoyin confirmed again.

"Yes, Your Highness, that's what you said. Xiaoyin, in consideration of your loyalty to me, tomorrow, as soon as I get the money, I will give you 10 taels of silver." Ling Xiyue raised an eyebrow at Xiaoyin.

Xiaoyin's eyes widened and she exclaimed excitedly, "Miss, are you serious? Are you really going to give me 10 taels of silver?"

"It's true." Ling Xiyue touched Xiaoyin's forehead with her hand and nodded with a smile.

Xiaoyin fell to her knees and kowtowed to Ling Xiyue.

"Thank you so much, Miss."

When Ling Xiyue saw this, she hurriedly helped Xiaoyin up, "Get up, there's no need to kneel all the time, why should we be so polite?"

Xiaoyin was instantly moved, tears blurred her eyes, and she excitedly promised: "In the future, if you have anything to ask, just tell me. I am willing to go through fire and water for you, and I will never have second thoughts."

"Okay, just say that." Ling Xiyue smiled and patted Xiaoyin's shoulder, and comforted her: "Don't cry, in the future, when I make money, you will definitely get a share."

"Well, thank you, Miss." Xiaoyin nodded obediently, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.

Ling Xiyue looked at the well-behaved Xiaoyin and thought to herself: Xiaoyin, you grew up with the original owner. Here, I can only rely on you. I hope you won’t let me down.

Xushi

After taking a bath in the bathroom, Ling Xiyue returned to her room. As soon as she entered the room, she took off her cloak and handed it to Xiaoyin.

Xiaoyin took it, hung the cloak on the hanger, and closed the door.

But when he turned around, he saw Ling Xiyue, who was wearing a thin silk pajamas. Because it was too thin, Ling Xiyue's curvy figure was vaguely visible.

Xiaoyin was immediately fascinated and stared at it in a daze.

Ling Xiyue walked to the bed and sat down. Seeing Xiaoyin in a daze, she smiled and asked, "Xiaoyin, what's wrong? Why are you in a daze?"

Xiaoyin came to her senses after hearing the voice. She walked to Ling Xiyue with a smile in her eyes.

"Miss, why haven't I seen you wear this dress before?"

Ling Xiyue looked down at her clothes and laughed, "How come you haven't seen them before? I'm wearing them all, but I usually wear a bellyband, but I didn't wear it today."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Xiaoyin felt a little embarrassed, but suddenly became curious, "Miss, why aren't you wearing it today?"

Ling Xiyue took off her shoes, lay on the bed, and said calmly: "It's a bit hot today, so I won't wear them."

Xiaoyin took the initiative to cover Ling Xiyue with the quilt.

"To be honest, the young lady has a great figure." Xiaoyin did not forget to praise.

Ling Xiyue heard this and smiled, "I think so too, especially here."

After saying that, he pointed to his chest with a smirk on his face.

Xiaoyin understood what he meant immediately, and she smiled too, but suddenly, she thought of He Tingxi and frowned slightly.

"But why doesn't His Highness want to get close to the young lady? He stayed here on their wedding day. Logically, he should like the young lady."

"I don't know either." Ling Xiyue pretended to be stupid, with a guilty look on her face.

Xiaoyin didn't insist. Seeing that Ling Xiyue had slept well, she stood up and prepared to leave.

"Miss, go to sleep. I'm going back to my room."

"Okay, go and have a rest." Ling Xiyue nodded.

Xiaoyin turned and walked towards the door, preparing to open it.

Suddenly, there was a voice outside the door.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

This sound startled Xiaoyin and Ling Xiyue.

Ling Xiyue immediately sat up, covered her body with the quilt, and looked outside, her eyes full of questions.

Xiaoyin opened the door as usual, and saw the guard pushing He Tingxi into the room.

As soon as he entered the room, the guards took the initiative to retreat, leaving He Tingxi alone.

"Your Highness, your servant greets you." Xiaoyin bowed.

He Tingxi glanced at Xiaoyin from the side and said, "Xiaoyin, you've worked hard. You can leave as well."

Xiaoyin was stunned for a while before she came to her senses, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Yes, I'll take my leave." Xiaoyin retreated conspicuously and closed the door.

Ling Xiyue was dumbfounded at the scene in front of her.

Seeing He Tingxi standing alone in front of the door, he wanted to go over and push it, but when he thought about his thin clothes and the fact that his cloak was not next to the bed, he had to continue sitting there.

"Your Highness, why are you here? Is there something important?" Ling Xiyue couldn't help but ask when she saw He Tingxi acting so abnormally.

He Tingxi did not answer Ling Xiyue's question. Seeing that Ling Xiyue had no intention of getting up, he had to slide the wheels with his hands and get closer to Ling Xiyue.

He Tingxi stopped after sliding to the edge of the bed.

At this time, Ling Xiyue stared at He Tingxi blankly without making any move.

He Tingxi smiled helplessly and said, "Won't you help me to bed and rest?"

As soon as the words fell, Ling Xiyue couldn't help but widen her eyes, eyes full of fear, and stammered.

"Your Highness, you, you want to rest here?" Ling Xiyue's voice was trembling.

"You are my wife. Isn't it normal for me to rest here?" He Tingxi asked seriously.

Ling Xiyue was suddenly speechless and unable to refute.

She wanted to get up, but she was afraid of being seen because she was wearing too little. So she shamelessly lowered her head and begged, "Your Highness, can you close your eyes? My clothes are a little thin, and it's not very convenient."

As soon as he finished speaking, He Tingxi was speechless for a moment, but when he saw Ling Xiyue's "pitiful" look, he felt a little soft-hearted.
