539 Why he was so shy?

Qiu Mu gripped the bamboo slip in his hand tightly when he heard Kang Cha Ying run away from her house. He threw it toward the soldier, who caught it. Without thinking for another second, Qiu Mu left for the Kang residence to find out what exactly happened.

He pulled the reins on the horse as soon as he arrived at the Kang Residence and ran inside.

“Where is Kang Xi?” Qiu Mu asked, grabbing the collar of the servant, whom he saw first.

“Lord Kang is in his room,” the servant replied. Qiu Mu let go of his collar and marched toward Kang Xi’s room. Somewhere, he had the feeling that Kang Xi did something which forced Cha Ying to take such a decision.

The servants were confused to see Qiu Mu, but they did not stop him. The grim look on the second prince’s face had terrified them.

Qiu Mu halted outside Kang Xi’s house and pushed the doors. He walked in while shouting Kang Xi’s name, who was seated in front of the table with a troubled expression on his face.

Kang Xi immediately stood up from his place and bowed to see Qiu Mu.

“Where is Cha Ying? What did you say to her that she ran away?” Qiu Mu scrunched his brows together and walked up to him.

“Your Highness, I merely asked my daughter to not refuse the marriage,” Kang Xi stated when Qiu Mu strangled his neck. His thumb and fingers tightly pressed on Kang Xi’s neck, whose eyes almost bulged out of his sockets.

“I told you not to say anything to Cha Ying. I know that you pressured her. Tell me the truth, or else I will kill you,” Qiu Mu shouted at Kang Xi.

“Your Highness!” Lady Kang ran inside and held his arm. She requested him to let go of her husband. Qiu Mu let go of Kang Xi and pushed him away. Kang Xi started to cough as he gasped for air. He was on the verge of dying. He felt what death looked like.

“Find Cha Ying. If you fail to do that, I swear, I will wipe out your existence,” Qiu Mu threatened Kang Xi. Kang Xi’s wife was crying while Kang Xi assured the prince that he would definitely find her.

“When did you find out that Cha Ying ran from the house?” Qiu Mu questioned.

“In the morning, Your Highness,” Kang Xi said in a low voice.

“What did you tell her? Did you force her to marry me? Don’t lie to me, Kang Xi. I am in my worse mood,” Qiu Mu muttered.

“Your Highness, we did not say anything to her. We merely told her not to step back from such a good marriage proposal. She is my daughter,” Kang Xi placed his hand on his chest, “I am more concerned for her than the Second Prince.”

Qiu Mu clenched his fists. “Your words are not trustworthy to me,” he stated and walked out from there. Qiu Mu needs to prepare a unit that would specifically search for Cha Ying. If she had run away from the house, she would not have covered a long distance. Thinking about all this, he left for the palace.

As soon as he reached the palace, Qiu Mu met Huang Xi and asked him to form a team of special soldiers to find Cha Ying.

“I will give you the sketch of Cha Ying. Also, block the main city gates now,” Qiu Mu commanded Huang Xi.

“Yes, Your Highness,” Huang Xi bowed and left from there.

Jingfei wore the earrings that Xu Zifan had gifted her. She asked Lin Jie about them and asked her if she looked mesmerizing.

“Indeed, My Lady. My Lord’s eyes cannot stay away from you even for a second,” Lin Jie said with a broad smile.

“Xu Zifan admires me, but he is too shy to express his love sometimes,” Jingfei said.

“Then my lady should initiate. She should seduce her husband. Upon seeing the charm of his wife, my lord will not be able to stop himself,” Lin Jie suggested while giggling.

“Umm… I have never done all this. Moreover, I may get uncomfortable,” Jingfei said while fidgeting with her fingers.

She stood up and decided to go to Xu Zifan’s workplace and surprise him. “Lin Jie, pack the sweets in a box. I am going to see Xu Zifan,” Jingfei ordered. Lin Jie nodded her head and dashed out of the room to the kitchen.

Jingfei looked at herself in the mirror and brushed her hair once more. She circled at her place while spreading her arms out and danced a little in enjoyment.

She stopped and lowered her hand when an arm circled her belly. She tilted her head and a smile appeared on her lips.

“Xu Zifan,” she whispered with shimmering eyes.

“You came home early. Did your work finish early?” Jingfei asked and turned to him. Her hands rested on his chest as she kept her gaze on him.

“Yes. I had less work today, which I finished early,” Xu Zifan replied and looked at her ears.

“Did you like the present?” Xu Zifan asked.

“Hmm.” Jingfei nodded her head a few times in happiness.

“You looked mesmerizing earlier,” Xu Zifan said.

“When?”

“A minute ago when you were dancing happily,” Xu Zifan replied.

“Really?”

“Hmm.”

Jingfei tiptoed and kissed him. She rubbed her nose against his and smiled at him. “Xu Zifan, you are such a lovely husband,” she praised him and hugged him tightly.

She pulled away soon and told him to wait for her as she would bring water for him when he grasped her arm.

“I am not thirsty,” Xu Zifan said and took a step to close the distance between them.

Jingfei wondered if he would kiss her this time. Their last kiss was a few days ago. After that day, Xu Zifan kissed her only on the forehead or sometimes the cheek. Why he was so shy? She was confused about it. She even initiated the kiss this time, but still, he looked very hesitant.

Xu Zifan wanted to kiss her when he heard a knock on the door. He promptly stepped away from Jingfei.

“Lin Jie, there is no need for this tiffin box,” Jingfei said and told Xu Zifan that she would bring the lunch meal to his room. He nodded his head and watched her leave the room. He sighed and scolded himself for being so slow.
