Chapter 11: A Trip to the Novel Palace Section 1
Early the next morning, after washing up, He Wei changed into the skirt prepared for her by the servants in the palace, but she hid in Zhuo Fei's bedroom and dared not go out.
Really...really, the scene last night was so embarrassing! She and Zhuo Fei were talking about love in the room, and Zhuo Fei's mother was eavesdropping outside! She was so scared that she screamed immediately and buried her head in the quilt. No matter how Zhuo Fei persuaded her, she refused to come out.
Zhuo Fei was also helpless : "Mom! What are you doing?"
"I just want to record your first time well so that you can enjoy it when you are old." Yang Xue said in an innocent tone.
"Who wants to keep it to appreciate it? Besides, even if you want to appreciate it, why are you the one taking the photos? Don't you think it's weird?" Zhuo Fei said as he pushed Yang Xue out the door.
She also reminded me before leaving: "Don't be afraid, Xiaowei. It's always a little painful the first time, but for my grandson, just bear with it. I'll make you some nourishing soup tomorrow!"
"Bang!" Zhuo Fei locked the door helplessly.
He Wei on the bed whimpered a few times from under the covers: "Your mother saw me, I'm too embarrassed to face anyone, wuwu——"
Zhuo Fei rushed over and hugged He Wei, who was curled up like a rice ball: "It's okay, it's okay. My mother is like this. Otherwise, where do you think I inherited my temper from?"
That's true. His personality is a bit like his mother's. They are both carefree. He Wei couldn't help but stick her head out of the quilt again: "Then... what about your father?"
"My father..." Zhuo Fei said as he gathered the quilt for her, "He actually has a very hot temper, but sometimes he pretends to be serious. There's nothing I can do about it, he's the king. Oh, by the way, you should be able to see him tomorrow morning. He was a little busy tonight, so he let my mother do whatever she wants in the palace. If it were normal, he would have taken my mother back to the palace long ago."
As she listened, He Wei couldn't help but gradually reveal a trace of envy. Just by listening to his few words of description, she could imagine how happy and warm this family was. She didn't expect that there was such an imperial family in the world, so...so they would cultivate a son like Zhuo Fei, who sometimes had a bad temper, but was very caring.
She couldn't help but reach out and wrap her arms around his waist. Zhuo Fei lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek a few times before saying, "Go to sleep. I'll wake you up tomorrow morning."
At that time, He Wei went to bed with a peaceful mood, but when she woke up early in the morning, she found that Zhuo Fei was no longer around. Several unfamiliar servants brought her clothes to change, and she couldn't help but start to get nervous. I don't know where Zhuo Fei went so early in the morning? Didn't he say he would wake me up? Being in an unfamiliar environment, He Wei couldn't help but feel a little timid.
At this moment, the bedroom door was opened from the outside.
He Wei turned around and saw Zhuo Fei standing in front of her in a radiant manner. He was wearing a handsome uniform that she had never seen before. The dark sapphire blue uniform was well made. Although it was not decorated with any jewelry, the simple shape brought out Zhuo Fei's kingly aura. He also wore a hat on his head, which covered most of his golden hair, leaving only a little bit of it exposed at the temples, making Zhuo Fei look serious.
"Are you awake? I was planning to wake you up when I came back." Zhuo Fei walked towards He Wei who was sitting beside the bed.
He Wei stared blankly at his long legs, thin waist and strong chest set off by his uniform. She couldn't help but put aside her timidity and unhappiness just now, walked over and put her arms around his waist, and said sincerely: "You look so handsome today."
Zhuo Fei was originally complaining that this shabby uniform was too tight and made it impossible for him to move his hands and feet, but after He Wei said this, this uniform that he only wore during holidays and travels suddenly rose several places in his heart. However, he still pretended to be calm and said, "Well, of course, when have I not been handsome?"
"Tsk, just bragging!" He Wei stuck out her tongue at him, but Zhuo Fei immediately held her lips with his kiss, holding her face and kissing her condescendingly for a long time.
After a long while, Zhuo Fei reluctantly let go of her lips and took out his hands which had been behind his back. In his hands, he was holding a bunch of light pink flowers.
Each flower was as big as a bowl, and the shape and fragrance it exuded were something He Wei had never seen before on Earth. She couldn't help but grab the bouquet of flowers in her hands with joy: "Wow, so beautiful!"
Zhuo Fei couldn't help but grin brightly. He picked her up by the waist and carried her all the way to the living room.
The two of them were soon led by servants to the spacious and luxurious reception room. Zhuo Fei put her on a chair and sat next to her. He pointed to the dazzling array of dishes on the table and said, "Are you hungry? Eat first. You don't have to wait for them." As he said that, he was about to pick up the spoon in his hand and scoop the salad in the bowl into He Wei's plate.
"Hey, hey!" He Wei immediately reached out and hit him , saying, "Wait until your parents come before you eat!"
Zhuo Fei scratched his head: "You don't know, they are the most annoying in the morning, I don't know when they will come——"
"Who said that! Am I not here now?" Yang Xue's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Thinking of what happened last night, He Wei's face suddenly turned red. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, stood up from the chair, and just as she was about to bow to the two people who walked in from outside the door, she was stunned.
Yang Xue was holding a camera in one hand and grabbing a middle-aged man's ear with the other. She looked up and waved at He Wei: "Xiao Wei, you must be hungry. Come eat quickly. You don't have to be so polite in my house."
He Wei opened her mouth wide and looked at the man whose ears she was pulling, wondering if this could be the king of the empire?
Sure enough, the man spoke the next second, but his tone was not majestic at all, and he even begged for mercy: "Wife, I was wrong, please let me go, there are guests today, please give me some face..."
"Face? You're thinking about saving face now? Then why didn't you think about saving face when that maid was sticking to you last night? I saw you quite enjoying it! If I hadn't come over from my son's room and saw it, maybe you would have made that maid your queen now!" Yang Xue said as she sat down on the chair in a bad mood. She ignored the man next to her and started eating by herself.
"How is it possible! Honey, you know very well that you are the only one in my heart. I was too tired from reading official documents last night, and I wanted to ask the butler to bring me a cup of coffee, but who knew that the person who came in would be a woman. Honey, please forgive me and don't be angry. I have already expelled her from the palace." The imperial king Zhuo Qing sat pitifully beside Yang Xue, begging for mercy.
But Yang Xue was not moved at all. He Wei was stunned and turned to look at Zhuo Fei. He stuffed an apple into her mouth and said in a very normal tone: "This is my mother, you already know her. The one next to her is my father. Don't worry about them. They quarrel like this almost every few days. Just eat your food."
How could He Wei eat like this? She couldn't help but feel surprised and amused.
At this moment, King Zhuo Qing, who had been apologizing to his wife, suddenly saw the flowers in He Wei's hand and was heartbroken: "You little bastard! Why did you pull out all the 'Pink Romance' that I managed to cultivate successfully a while ago!"
He Wei shuddered and was about to apologize, but Zhuo Fei grabbed her waist and said, "I gave it to my woman."
"Your woman! Have you ever considered my woman? This is the one I want to give to your mother! You little bastard, are you itching for trouble? I'm going to beat you to death!" Zhuo Qing said as he was about to jump up from the chair and beat him.
Yang Xue said slowly, "Sit down."
Zhuo Qing immediately sat still. He looked at Yang Xue with a flattering smile and said, "Wife, you are not angry anymore."
"Whether I'm angry or not depends on your performance." Yang Xue pointed at He Wei who was sitting opposite her, "This is our future daughter-in-law, and you don't even know how to greet her properly."
Zhuo Qing said gently one second ago: "Okay, okay." The next second he turned his head, revealing a majestic expression of an emperor, and said to He Wei, "What's your name? What's your purpose in getting close to my son - ah!"
Yang Xue slapped him in anger: "I asked you to say hello, not to force a confession!"
"...Oh." Zhuo Qing rubbed the back of his head and said to He Wei weakly, "I'm Zhuo Fei's father. Your name is He Wei, right?"
As expected, he is the king, so he should have known about her existence. He Wei knew that it might be inappropriate to bring up this topic now, after all, this was their first meeting, but if she and Zhuo Fei really wanted to develop their relationship in the future, they must clarify this issue as soon as possible.
She turned her head and glanced at Zhuo Fei, then said: "Hello, Your Majesty, I am He Wei, but... I, my original form is not a Tyrannosaurus Rex."
Even among the common people there is such deep discrimination against mixed-race families, I'm afraid it's even more serious in the palace.
He Wei originally thought that after she said this, Zhuo Qing would immediately stop picking up food for his wife, reveal a dark expression, and finally leave her with a sentence: "Go out first, let me be alone with my son for a while."
But Zhuo Qing just fed a piece of bacon into Yang Xue's mouth and said naturally: "Oh, I know, Xue told me last night that you will be in a long strip shape after your transformation."
What are the long strips? He Wei felt sick all of a sudden. Your Majesty, I am discussing this issue with you seriously. Can you please stop joking?
As she was thinking, Zhuo Qing's expression suddenly became serious. He Wei's heart sank, thinking that the king was indeed the king. It seemed that the joke just now was just to make the atmosphere more relaxed. He must have said something more important next.
Unexpectedly, Zhuo Qing suddenly slammed the table, pointed a fork at Zhuo Fei's head, and said angrily: "Your mother told me everything last night! Why didn't you sleep with your woman when you had such a good opportunity! Do you know how many years your mother and I have been waiting to have a grandson! "
He Wei: “…”
