The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 989

Chapter 989: Chapter 833, The Incident

Luo Qiong found that after visiting the Ma Family, Xiao Yechen had been coming to her room more often, which infuriated and irritated her to no end.

Moreover, since it was the mourning period, she had no excuse to turn him away to his concubines’ quarters, leaving her no choice but to endure the situation with Zhou Xuan.

At first, Luo Qiong thought that Xiao Yechen’s frequent visits were out of guilt, but after a few days, she realized that whenever he came to her room, his gaze mostly fell on Xue Qiao.

Feeling guilty herself, Luo Qiong didn’t want Xiao Yechen to pay too much attention to Xue Qiao. Thus, she would find an excuse to send Xue Qiao out of the room whenever he visited.

Upon discovering this, Xiao Yechen intentionally remarked, "That maid of yours, Xue Qiao, is quite pretty."

Luo Qiong glanced at Xiao Yechen, "Are you taken with her?"

Xiao Yechen looked at Luo Qiong with a smile, "Are you jealous?" he asked, reaching for her hand.

To his surprise, the moment Xiao Yechen touched her hand, Luo Qiong quickly withdrew hers.

Watching Luo Qiong’s almost frantic attempt to avoid him, a coldness slowly crept into Xiao Yechen’s eyes.

These past days, he had not been oblivious to Luo Qiong’s rejection of him. Worse, he had inadvertently seen disgust flicker in her eyes towards him.

Because of the words from Mother Wang, he had initially dismissed his doubts about Luo Qiong, but these past days of interaction had made him waver once again.

Realizing her reaction had been too strong, Luo Qiong laughed it off, "My lord, we are still in the mourning period. We should be careful about certain matters, lest we give people something to gossip about."

Xiao Yechen withdrew his hand, saying bluntly, "Have that maid come in and attend to me. If I can’t touch, at least feasting my eyes can be good too."

Luo Qiong stared at Xiao Yechen, dumbfounded. Then a wave of disgust swept over her, making her regard Xiao Yechen as more repulsive than ever.

During her own mother’s mourning period, he still had the mind to notice a maid—utterly failing as a son! _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

Xiao Yechen ignored Luo Qiong, got up to change his clothes in the inner chamber, and then went to the study.

"Pay another visit to Mother Wang’s place. Bring her to the outer residence," Xiao Yechen indifferently ordered Gao Yuan, "Remember, let no one know about this."

Gao Yuan nodded and then discreetly left.
