Chapter 355 -333, A Notch Shorter?_1
Seeing Jiang Wanying about to touch the silk she had gifted to Daohua, Xiao Yeyang quickly walked over, took the fragrant silk gauze from her hands, and even patted it down, “Cousin Wanying, these items are gifts from me, and I don’t have many. If you like them, have Madam Jiang help you purchase some.”
After speaking, he gave a signal with his eyes to Dexi and the others, indicating them to take the fabrics away.
These items were carefully selected according to Daohua’s preferences, and if Cousin Wanying were to ask for them in front of so many people, he would have found it hard to refuse.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang hastening the servants to take away the fabrics, seemingly as though she was about to ask for them, Jiang Wanying became so embarrassed that her face turned beet red.
Dong Yuanxuan and the others silently lowered their heads, and even Yan Wenkai, who was not one to pay much attention, averted his gaze and stopped looking in that direction.
How awkward!
That Jiang girl must have thought the items in the hands of Dexi and the others were meant for her, but alas, the Little Prince denied it without hesitation.
After watching Dexi and the other servant take the items away, Xiao Yeyang let out a sigh of relief and then turned around to realize that the atmosphere seemed a bit off.
“Brother Yang, I’m feeling a bit unwell now and would like to go home to rest.”
As a legitimate daughter raised by an aristocratic family, Jiang Wanying’s ability to adapt to the situation was commendable. Aside from the initial embarrassment, she was now able to gracefully find an exit for herself.
Xiao Yeyang nodded, “Then you should head back quickly.”
That’s it?
Jiang Wanying stared at Xiao Yeyang, dumbstruck, seeing that he did not offer to escort her, she felt deeply disappointed.
Xiao Yeyang noticed Jiang Wanying still looking at him and, after thinking for a bit, added a few words of concern, “Cousin Wanying, you have a frail constitution and cannot endure the wind. In the future, it’s better to not wander about aimlessly and just stay at home.”
Upon hearing these words, Jiang Wanying’s expression changed drastically, and she could no longer hold back. She cast a grievous glance at Xiao Yeyang and swiftly turned to leave.
Dong Yuanxuan and the others looked at Xiao Yeyang with indescribable expressions.
If they hadn’t known the Little Prince well and seen that his concern was genuine, they might have thought the Little Prince was repulsed by Miss Jiang and did not want her visiting the guest house.
With Jiang Wanying gone, Xiao Yeyang felt much more at ease.
Because of the Empress Dowager, and due to the affection from their childhood, he always felt Cousin Wanying was a bit annoying but did not want to be too harsh. Now that she had left on her own, it couldn’t be better.
“Let’s go, let’s talk in the living room.”
Seeing Xiao Yeyang heading toward the living room, Yan Wenkai quickly hurried after him, “Little Prince, aren’t you going to check on her?”
Xiao Yeyang looked perplexed, “Why should I go check on her?”
Yan Wenkai, “…because I just saw that Miss Jiang didn’t seem to be in very good shape.”
Xiao Yeyang thought back for a moment, then shook his head, “Did she? I didn’t notice. You must have seen it wrong!”
Hearing this, everyone else was speechless.
Miss Jiang was so mortified she wished she could dive into a hole, and he failed to notice something so obvious?
Xiao Yeyang said unconcernedly, “Cousin Wanying has many maids and nannies around her, some of whom are skilled in medicine. Don’t worry, she’ll be fine.”
Yan Wenkai looked at Xiao Yeyang with a speechless expression.
They all said he was careless, but now he realized the Little Prince was even more oblivious; he had offended the young lady without even realizing it.
“Alright, stop talking about this unnecessary stuff. Come on, I need to talk to you about something,” said Xiao Yeyang, patting Yan Wenkai on the shoulder, signaling him to follow.
Yan Wenkai, “Little Prince, what did you need from me?”
Xiao Yeyang, “Didn’t I promise Yiyi earlier to send her an exotic bonsai? Help me carry it over.”
Yan Wenkai’s expression shifted, “So, the things just now were meant for my sister?”
Xiao Yeyang gave him a sidelong glance, “What else would you think?”
Yan Wenkai nodded, his mind no longer on Miss Jiang’s embarrassment. He was relieved that the Little Prince had intercepted in time; otherwise, the items for his sister could have been taken by someone else.
Xiao Yeyang continued, “Also, help me ask when Yiyi is planning to go back.”
“Alright!”
