Chapter 2677: Food in the Mouth

“What’s going on? Aren’t you fine? Why are you yelling like a ghost again?” Xuexue helplessly stopped in her tracks.

“I’m fine now, but who knows in a little while.”

Xiao Jiu, with its small eyes, looked warily at the big tabby cat above and pleaded, “Master, please let me out quickly. Xiao Jiu has been targeted by the big tabby cat. As the saying goes, it’s not the thief you should fear, but that they have their eyes on you. Xiao Jiu is afraid it might end up in the tabby cat’s stomach if it’s not careful.”

Long Rui: “Yeah, dear, why don’t you let it out? Why keep it locked up?”

Xiao Jiu looked moved at him: “Prince, you’re so good, I will never call you a big bad guy again in the future.”

Unexpectedly, Long Rui coldly said, “I’m afraid you’ll make the War Prince’s Mansion restless. In the middle of the night, your ghostly wailing can creep people out! Those who don’t know would think the War Prince’s Mansion is haunted!”

The Prince was too sharp-tongued, leaving Xiao Jiu speechless.

Just at this moment, the big tabby cat on the roof meowed a few times, and Xiao Jiu started wailing like a ghost again: “Master, look, it wants to eat me.”

Xuexue: “…!”

Long Rui: “Dear, let it out, it’s really pitiable.”

Primarily because if Xiao Jiu keeps causing a fuss, it will disturb his and his wife’s rest.

Xuexue saw how afraid Xiao Jiu was of the tabby cat and indeed found it pitiable, so she let it out of the cage.

“It’s really strange, where did a cat like this come from in the mansion?” Xuexue muttered as she opened the cage to let Xiao Jiu out.

When Xiao Jiu first arrived at the mansion, a servant did keep a little black cat, but after learning that Xiao Jiu was afraid of cats, it was already forbidden to keep cats in the mansion. So, where did such a big tabby cat come from?

Long Rui glanced up and said, “It’s probably a stray cat!”

Xuexue didn’t pay much mind, nodding, “Hmm, probably!”

Long Rui instructed the servants to drive the big tabby cat out of the mansion to prevent Xiao Jiu from causing a ruckus all day.

Xiao Jiu flew out of the cage, extremely happy: “Chirp chirp chirp…! The master is so nice!”

Long Rui: “Stop making noise, and get out of the way.”

Xiao Jiu flapped its wings and flew up: “No noise, no noise, you should go rest quickly.”

Long Rui, fearing Xuexue might slip away, held her hand tightly: “Dear, it’s time to rest.”

“I’m not sleepy.”

“But I’m sleepy.”

“If you’re sleepy, go to sleep!”

“No, I want dear to accompany me.”

“Shameless, such a big person yet still needs company to sleep.”

“Yes, your husband is indeed shameless. If I were to save face, I wouldn’t have dear, so why bother? Forget it, forget it.”

“Pffft! Such a glib tongue!”

“It’s not glib, it’s the truth from your husband’s heart.”

“I don’t believe it.”

“Do you want me to dig my heart out to show you?”

“Sure!”

“…!”

“Hurry up!”

“Better not, if your husband dies, dear will surely be sad, and then I won’t even rest in peace in the underworld.”

“Hmph, on the outside, they call you the cold Prince. Are you cold? What’s cold about you?”

“I’m wearing it!”

“What are you talking about?”

“Isn’t dear asking about your husband’s underwear? It’s being worn! What’s the matter? Does dear perhaps want to…?”

“You shameless scoundrel, get lost!”

“The bedroom is this small, where do you want your husband to roll to?”

“Squat in the corner.”

“No squatting, men should be big-hearted. Even if I squat, I’ll squat at the corner of the bed; your husband needs to warm the bed for dear, so dear won’t feel cold.”

Xuexue almost lost it; this is the legendary cold Prince, his mouth was glib beyond measure, and she felt she couldn’t take it anymore.

Just then, the sound of Zi Xia’s voice came from outside…

“Oh my, you naughty bird, so bold of you to sneak out. Do you believe I’ll tell the young lady and have her punish you for an extra three days?”
