Chapter 313 is a bit too hasty!
Mu Xin Nuan was amused by his words again, and gently closed the lid and placed the brocade box on the table.
Duanmu Chuze frowned at her actions. "Why did you put it down? Since it was delivered to you, you should use it directly!"
As he spoke, Duanmu Chuze opened the box again, looked around, and finally chose the soft couch under the north wall.
“I remember you liked to lean against this soft couch and read books, so let’s hang it here.”
Mu Xin Nuan remained silent, only smiling as she watched him busily working. She even casually brought a very thin gauze scarf, wrapped the luminous pearl in it, tied it with two ribbons, and then hung it from the beam.
The roof beam was quite high, so the hanging rope was naturally quite long. Duanmu Chuze looked at it and then felt it was inappropriate, so he took it down again. As he took it down, he said, "It's too high, and the rope is too long. If we open the windows in the summer, a gust of wind might cause trouble. I'll find you another place to tie it."
Seeing how thoughtful and considerate he was, Mu Xin Nuan felt a warmth in her heart.
Looking at Duanmu Chuze, who is so busy for her now, she naturally thought of her past life.
In her past life, during her marriage with Jin Hui, she was the one who put in the effort most of the time, always busy doing things for him. When had she ever seen him worry about her like this?
Mu Xin Nuan then realized that the difference between being loved by someone and loving someone is so great!
Suddenly, Mu Xin Nuan realized a very serious problem: when did she actually think that Duanmu Chu Ze had fallen in love with her?
Just because of what he did for himself?
Mu Xin Nuan subconsciously shook her head. Having lived a second life, she had no expectations for matters of the heart, but the appearance of Duanmu Chu Ze had completely disrupted her original thoughts.
"Anuan, what's wrong?"
"Huh?" Mu Xin Nuan suddenly came to her senses, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Why are you spacing out all by yourself?
"Nothing, just thinking about some things from the past. All done?"
Mu Xin Nuan glanced at the luminous pearl he had hung up and realized that the room was much brighter now, especially around the soft couch, which was bathed in a soft, yellowish light.
"How's it going? Not bad, right?"
Duanmu Chuze said with a hint of smugness, "Let me tell you. There are certainly quite a few luminous pearls, at least ten or so in my mansion. But those that are this big and have such soft light, suitable for making lamps, are really few. Most importantly, this kind of soft light is good for your eyes. If it were too bright, it might hurt your eyes."
"Oh." Mu Xin Nuan nodded. "You're very thoughtful."
"Of course I did. Otherwise, why would I have chosen this one out of all the rewards Father Emperor prepared today? Let me tell you, I wasn't the only one eyeing it! My eldest sister-in-law and my brother Ming's little princess also had their eyes on it. If I hadn't acted quickly and acted a bit shamelessly, do you think I would have been able to snatch it?"
Shameless?
Mu Xin Nuan's heart was touched for a moment!
Duanmu Chuze, the Prince of Chang Le of Dayong, what a prestigious position he held! Yet he acted so humbly in front of me?
Such a refined and elegant man, so handsome and graceful, actually used the word "shameless" to describe himself? If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't agree to it no matter what.
"Anuan, what's wrong with you? How can you keep getting distracted when a stunningly handsome man like me is standing right in front of you?"
When Mu Xin Nuan came to her senses again, she already felt a familiar presence approaching. She wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
Feeling the warmth of the large hand binding her waist, Mu Xin Nuan's face flushed instantly.
Mu Xin Nuan had already taken off her outer robe, and what she was wearing now was just a thin gauze skirt that was one layer thicker than her inner robe. As a result, although the two of them did not have direct physical contact, it was probably even more embarrassing and heart-pounding than that.
Duanmu Chuze was in a great mood as he watched her blushing face. He could feel his heart racing. At this moment, nothing made him happier than just hearing his rapid heartbeat.
Blushing, his heart racing, and feeling a little uneasy—he couldn't think of any more reasonable explanation than liking him.
The beautiful woman was in his arms, her fragrance filling the air, but the problem was that Mu Xin Nuan was still too young, only fourteen, not yet an adult.
Duanmu Chuze's throat tightened, a surge of heat began to flow through his heart, and the temperature of his palms involuntarily rose. In that instant, Mu Xin Nuan also felt the heat coming from her waist, and she subconsciously tried to dodge. But in that instant, she was suddenly held even tighter. In her haste, she looked up, only to have her lips accurately sealed by the man who had been itching for her for so long.
Gentle and slow, such a kiss quickly made Mu Xin Nuan forget to resist, forget what the man in front of her was doing to her.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but just when Mu Xin Nuan felt like she was about to suffocate, she heard the man beside her chuckle.
"Fool, breathe!"
Mu Xin Nuan was panting heavily, her face was already flushed red, and her eyes were hazy and unfocused. Duanmu Chu Ze was even more moved when he saw her!
No!
Duanmu Chuze reminded himself of this, and feeling the subtle changes that were beginning to appear in his body, he suddenly pushed Mu Xin Nuan away forcefully, then turned around and opened the window, breathing in the fresh air outside.
After he opened the window and calmed down for a while, he suddenly saw Mu Hua standing outside looking embarrassed.
Duanmu Chuze covered his mouth and coughed a few times, feeling slightly awkward. This suppressed his initial impulse. He took a deep breath and turned around, only to find that Mu Xin Nuan's expression was off.
"Ah Nuan!"
"Get away from me!" Mu Xin Nuan's voice was already slightly choked up, which made Duanmu Chu Ze really anxious.
"Anuan, what's wrong? Is it what happened to me just now?"
"Get away from me! You, you lecherous scoundrel, you bullied me and then just walked away, you, you've gone too far."
As Mu Xin Nuan spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
Duanmu Chuze was both amused and exasperated, and couldn't help but regret his earlier impulsiveness.
"Anuan, I didn't mean to turn around and leave. I, I..." Duanmu Chuze's face also turned a little red. How should he put it?
