Chapter 119 Seeing Those Girls
Seeing the girls clutching their bags, their faces bewildered, Mu Yunxi couldn't help but feel pity. She wondered if they were new to the area and hadn't found a place to stay. Turning to Nimi, Bure'er, and Axi, who were currently staying in the women's dormitory, she whispered, "You three should take these girls to our dormitory first and help them get acquainted with the surroundings."
Nimi, Bure, and Axi gladly accepted the order, smiling as they approached the unfamiliar girls. After all, they were all of similar age, all in the prime of their youth, and they quickly became familiar with each other. Within a short while, laughter and joy filled the air, as if they were old friends, chattering non-stop.
As the group gradually walked away, Yongle, who had been standing silently by, suddenly chuckled. She looked at Mu Yunxi with interest and teased, "Oh, you didn't see it just now. Those little girls looked at you with eyes full of admiration. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it seems our lady, who is as capable as any man, holds a very important position in their hearts!"
Hearing Yongle's words, Mu Yunxi was stunned at first, then the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, and deliberately joked: "Oh? So, is our Princess Yongle jealous?"
Upon hearing this, Yongle's face flushed immediately and he quickly denied it, "No...no way! I won't be jealous for such a reason!" After that, he turned around and prepared to get on the carriage.
Mu Yunxi blinked her bright eyes, raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a playful smile, and said in a sweet voice: "Oh, it must be because they were so busy looking at me that they forgot to salute you, the noble and beautiful princess, so you are angry?" After that, she quickly came to Yongle's side.
Yongle snorted lightly and glared at Mu Yunxi in feigned anger: "Hmph! You just knew you were making fun of me. If I really cared, I would have ordered their punishment just now!" After saying that, he felt unsatisfied and turned around to pinch Mu Yunxi's arm.
Mu Yunxi cried out in pain from the pinch, but quickly recovered. She rubbed the pinched area, then turned to face the adults behind her, bowed slightly, performed a standard etiquette, and said with a smile, "Thank you all for your hard work today. After this matter is over, I will definitely host a banquet to entertain you all. Please be sure to come and enjoy it."
Hearing Mu Yunxi's words, several people nodded and smiled, telling her to go back to her own business. Liang Mancang couldn't help but jokingly said, "Little Master Mu, you'd better leave quickly. If you dawdle any longer, the princess will abandon you!"
Mu Yunxi smiled mischievously after hearing this, and without further ado, she quickly chased after Yongle. Soon, the two of them reached the carriage, where they engaged in another round of playful banter before boarding it together. The remaining adults watched them depart, shaking their heads and chuckling. Liang Mancang sighed, "The friendship between Little Mu and the Princess is truly enviable!"
In the carriage, Yongle asked, "Come to think of it, you hired them without even interviewing them. Aren't you worried that they won't learn anything?"
Mu Yunxi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, stretched out her arms and gently hugged Yongle, and replied confidently: "Don't worry, no, I will teach them myself!"
Yongle grumbled coquettishly and forcefully pushed away Mu Yunxi's embrace. He then quickly reached out and cupped Mu Yunxi's cheeks, saying sternly, "Little Master Mu! Have you forgotten that you still have an official position? Where do you get so much free time?"
Mu Yunxi, however, didn't take it seriously. Still smiling, she softly explained, "Of course I understand, but I'm doing this so more women can see hope! As long as it can help them, I have no problem sacrificing a little bit of my personal time!"
Hearing this, Yongle couldn't help but feel jealous, and muttered with a bit of resentment: "Then what should I do?"
Seeing this, Mu Yunxi quickly and gently took away Yongle's hands that were holding her cheeks, and instead held them tightly, showing a rogue smile on her face, and said shamelessly: "Hey ~ All my time in the evening belongs to you!"
Yongle's face instantly turned red like a ripe apple. She lowered her head shyly, not daring to look directly into Mu Yunxi's eyes. Seeing Yongle's adorable reaction, Mu Yunxi couldn't help but smirk. She deliberately leaned closer to Yongle's face and whispered teasingly, "We've been together for such a long time, why are you still blushing so easily? I didn't say anything too revealing. Hmm...my Ah Yin is so innocent!"
After hearing her words, Yongle's face instantly turned even redder. He felt embarrassed and annoyed. He suddenly reached out his hand, pushed her aside, and shouted in mock anger: "Humph! You are not allowed to sleep with me tonight!"
However, what Yongle didn't expect was that Mu Yunxi nodded and agreed without hesitation: "Okay!"
Yongle was not going to take it anymore. She widened her eyes, pointed at Mu Yunxi and asked, "If you don't sleep with me, are you going to sleep with someone else?"
Seeing Yongle so excited, Mu Yunxi couldn't help but burst out laughing. She looked at Yongle's face, which was red from anger or shame, and said mischievously, "Hey, I'm just listening to you! Whatever you say is what I do. If you tell me to go east, I won't take a single step west. Now you don't let me sleep with you, then there's nothing I can do. I can't just disobey you, right? So, I can only listen to you!" As she spoke, Mu Yunxi deliberately pouted her lips, revealing a very aggrieved expression.
Yongle laughed out loud at her expression and said, "I am magnanimous and forgive you!"
Mu Yunxi immediately chimed in, "Thank you, Princess!" The two of them laughed and joked again. Since Innovation College wasn't far from the Princess's residence, they quickly returned. After a tiring day, they had dinner, washed up, and went to bed.
At this time, Mu Cheng from the Mu Mansion complained, "Before, he would remember to come back or tell the servants to come and tell them. Now, he doesn't even say anything."
"I guess they were too busy to remember. Xiao Shan and the others went with them to maintain order today. I heard from them that there were quite a few people there! They had to question them one by one, and they even had just a few bites of lunch." Xiao Yao explained for Mu Yunxi.
But Mu Yunxi and Yongle had indeed forgotten about it, and were now fast asleep.
