The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

Chapter 189 Can I Come In?

Jiang Bu returned to the kitchen, feeling heavy-hearted. He knew he couldn't go on like this and had to confess his feelings to Murong Xue. So he decided to go to his mother for help tonight and ask her to give him some advice.

After Murong Xue sat down, Chuntao was about to go forward to pour her tea. At this time, Jiang Bu quickly took the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Murong Xue. Chuntao was a little surprised to see his empty hands, but was pulled back by Shi Liu in an instant, and the two smiled at each other.

"Xue'er, have some tea." Jiang Bu handed the poured tea to her. Murong Xue took the tea with a smile on her face and took a sip of it.

"Xue'er? Sister Mu, you guys...oh oh..." Jiang Li listened to his third brother addressing Sister Mu, pointing his finger back and forth at them gossiping and laughing. Jiang Bu didn't say anything, just looked at Murong Xue with a smile on his face.

"Don't call me Xue'er! Call me Murong Xue!" Murong Xue rolled her eyes at Jiang Bu angrily.

"We have clearly agreed on this, how can you go back on your word?" Jiang Bu said solemnly.

Murong Xue looked at him speechlessly: "Who told you that? How come I didn't know?"

Jiang Bu pretended to be wronged and said, "You clearly promised me yesterday, why are you going back on your word now?"

Murong Xue rolled her eyes: "When did I promise you? Please stop talking nonsense, okay?"

Jiang Bu blinked and said seriously: "Just yesterday, you nodded."

Murong Xue glared at him angrily: "I just agreed to one of your requests, don't push it further!"

Jiang Bu chuckled, leaned closer to her and said, "That's what I want."

Murong Xue was so angry that she almost slammed the table. This guy is simply a rogue! She glared at Jiang Bu fiercely and said through gritted teeth: "No, change someone else!"

Seeing this, Jiang Bu could only shrug helplessly, "Well, since you don't want to admit it, there's nothing I can do." After saying that, he picked up the teacup and drank it leisurely.

Murong Xue looked at his smug look, and she hated him so much, but she couldn't do anything about it. This guy really made people angry and funny.

"Third brother, what exactly happened?" Jiang Li became even more curious.

Jiang Bu just hummed and groaned without answering. Jiang Li couldn't help but ask again: "Third brother, tell me quickly!"

Jiang Bu finally couldn't hold it in anymore and complained to Jiang Li, "Hmph, some people don't keep their words. Yesterday you clearly said that as long as I win the horse race, you would agree to one of my requests. As a result, look..." As he spoke, Jiang Bu turned his gaze to Murong Xue, his eyes full of resentment and dissatisfaction.

Jiang Li followed Jiang Bu's gaze and saw Murong Xue standing there with an innocent look on her face, seemingly not caring at all about what Jiang Bu said.

Jiang Bu continued, "I originally thought that after winning the horse race, she would just change her name, but I didn't expect her to go back on her word."

Hearing this, Jiang Li couldn't help but laugh out loud. She really couldn't imagine that her third brother, who was always elegant and unrestrained, was now acting like a child and complaining.

Jiang Li smiled and comforted him: "Third brother, don't be angry! Maybe Sister Mu is not used to it?"

After hearing this, Jiang Bu looked at Jiang Li even more resentfully, muttering, "Won't you get used to it slowly?"

At this time, Murong Xue, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke up: "Forget about changing the name, it sounds weird! Change your request!" It turned out that Jiang Bu had asked her to race horses yesterday, and proposed that if he won, Murong Xue would have to agree to a condition. At that time, Murong Xue did not think much about it, and readily agreed. However, when she saw Jiang Bu's superb riding skills, she was shocked. She did not expect that this seemingly weak young man was so outstanding in equestrianism. In the end, Jiang Bu won the game at an amazing speed. Now, facing the request made by Jiang Bu, although Murong Xue felt a little helpless, she still firmly stated that she would not compromise easily.

"Axue, it's okay!" Jiang Bu looked at Murong Xue expectantly, his eyes sparkling with sincerity, as if all his hopes were pinned on this moment. Murong Xue looked at his expectant eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little reluctant. She knew that if she refused again, it might hurt Jiang Bu's heart. Moreover, compared to the previous "Xue'er" that made her feel a little awkward, this new name seemed easier to accept. So, she nodded gently to show her agreement.

After receiving a positive answer, Jiang Bu immediately smiled brightly. He shouted excitedly, "Axue, Axue, Axue!" His voice revealed endless joy and satisfaction. However, this continuous shouting made Murong Xue feel a little impatient. She frowned helplessly and made a stop gesture.

"Stop, stop, stop..." Murong Xue's tone was full of unquestionable firmness. Seeing this, Jiang Bu quickly closed his mouth and stopped making any sound. He knew that he was a little too excited, but at the moment he was in a really good mood.

Jiang Li was watching all this quietly. She knew that her third brother had special feelings for Murong Xue. At different times and places, Jiang Bu always tried to get close to Murong Xue in various ways, even though this behavior sometimes made Murong Xue feel uncomfortable. But Jiang Li was not worried, because she knew Murong Xue's character and believed that she would not get angry or lose her temper easily. For Jiang Bu, as long as he could be with Murong Xue, even if it was just a little progress, it was worth celebrating.

"Knock knock knock." A knock on the door interrupted the three people's thoughts, and Jiang Bu got up to open the door.

"Regent?" Jiang Bu looked at the person who came with some surprise.

"Third Young Master." Mu Jiuchen greeted and looked into the room. He did not expect that there would be so many people in the room, and he did not expect that Murong Xue was also there.

"Can I come in?" The word "I" surprised Jiang Bu. The high and mighty Ninth Prince actually changed his way of addressing himself in front of him. Jiang Bu turned sideways.

"Your Majesty, please come in!"

After Mu Jiuchen entered the room, Jiang Li stood up suddenly, blinking her eyes at him, her thoughts turning quickly in her mind. "Why is the prince here? I usually see him at night. How can I explain to my third brother that he suddenly came today! That night, Mu Jiuchen came to tell her that her second brother would be back soon. She said that she must go to Liwei Tower to wait for her second brother, and Mu Jiuchen replied, "I'll accompany you." I didn't expect him to really come! Ahhh, what should I do, what should I do?"

"Ahem..." Jiang Li coughed twice and pretended to be calm, "Um... Third brother, this is the Regent King, he..."

"I heard that the third lady is here, so I came to visit her." Mu Jiuchen said.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Jiang Bu nodded, but he was a little confused. Why would the Regent be so concerned about his younger sister?

"Yes, yes, thank you for your concern, Your Highness." Jiang Li said with a smile.

Mu Jiuchen had actually noticed her nervousness and uneasiness, but he just didn't show it.
