Author:?The first love of a rainy day?MACHINE TRANSLATION
Lian Lian laughed coldly. âI donât understand what youâre saying. What knife? â
âTell Her! â Xi Si ordered the guard beside him.
âMiss Lian Lian, itâs the knife that you used to eat. The imperial kitchen was missing a knife during the inventory. Did you put it somewhere? â The guard said awkwardly.
Even if this woman was locked up by Xi Si, she was still Xin BAâs biological mother. She was also the biological mother of the future little prince or Princess. How could he dare to offend Lian Lian?
âYou went all out to question me after losing the knife. Am I here to keep an eye on the knife for you? â Lian Lian questioned coldly.
âOf course not. We just, we just couldnât find it, so we came to ask, â the guard explained.
âYou barged into my bedroom with just a question. Let alone in the palace, even in an ordinary house, is a womanâs bedroom to be barged into casually? GET OUT OF HERE! I WANT TO GET UP! â Lian Lian ordered arrogantly. She did not look like someone who was being interrogated.
Xi Siâs face twitched slightly. Where did this woman get the courage to speak to him like that?
âIâll give you time to get up. Weâll settle the score when you get up! â He waved his hand and led his guards out of the room. It seemed that it was against the rules for the guards to watch Lian Lian get up. Even if he refused to let this woman be his daughter-in-law.. He could not deny that this woman was his sonâs woman.
He could not let his guards watch his sonâs woman get up, right?
For the first time in his life, he felt cowardly. How did he get kicked out of the room by a smelly girl.
Lian Lian watched as everyone left and the room door was closed. She then leisurely lifted the blanket and got out of bed. She went to the bathroom to wash up. If they wanted to find a knife, she would let them look for it properly. She would wait for them to find it.
After washing up, she changed into a dress and walked out of the room. Xi Si sat on the SOFA. All the guards were searching everywhere for a knife. However, after searching many places, there was no sign of a knife.
âTell me, where is the knife? Donât think that you can escape from here just by hiding a knife! I can tell you right now that itâs impossible, â XI SI said.
Lian Lian Sat across Xi Si. âI didnât hide the knife. Believe it or not. â
âDo you think Iâll believe you? â Xi Si said.
âThen letâs make a bet. I didnât hide the knife. If I lose, Iâll be at your disposal. If I win, promise me one thing. Do you dare to bet? â Lian Lian said.
Xi Siâs eyes narrowed. âIâm the one whoâs going to deal with you. It doesnât matter if you win or not! â
âThatâs not the point. Itâs whether you dare to bet or not. Arenât you certain that I hid the knife? If youâre really so confident, you should dare to bet, right? After all, youâre destined to be the winner. Thereâs no loss for you, â Lian Lian said.
Xi Siâs lips pursed into a straight line. His gaze twisted around the little woman who was clamoring in front of him. He did not understand where her confidence came from?
Lian Lian looked at the man who did not speak and laughed softly. âForget it. Itâs fine if your majesty doesnât dare to bet. Otherwise, if I win, people will say that Iâm bullying you! â
Xi Siâs expression instantly turned ugly. How could he lose He, the Riesians, was a race that would never lose.
âIâLL BET! I WONâT LOSE! â He said harshly.
âAlright, itâs a deal. I Hope Your Majesty wonât go back on your word! â Lian Lian emphasized.
She rubbed her neck. She was a little tired from sleeping. She leaned comfortably on the back of the SOFT SOFA, waiting for the guards to report the news.
A moment later, a guard rushed over and whispered to Xi SI. Xi Siâs face turned black.
The guard did not dare to directly say that they had found the knife. He was afraid that XI SI would be embarrassed if he lost the bet.
Lian Lian saw Xi Siâs ugly expression without any suspense âWhy is Your Majesty Not Speaking? What do you have to say to the guards in secret? If you canât afford to lose, just say it. Or, you can take a knife and hide it anywhere and say that I hid it. â
She directly exposed all the possibilities. There were some things that once exposed, there was no point in doing it again.
The corner of Xi Siâs lips twitched slightly. He was really angered by the smelly girlâs clamor. âI CANâT AFFORD TO LOSE? Admit defeat. I found the knife. Itâs under the table. â
âItâs under the table. Why are you looking for it for so long? â Lian Lian looked at the guard.
âWe didnât notice that. We thought it was hidden somewhere, â the guard explained.
âYour Majesty, the knife is under the table. You canât accuse me of hiding the knife, can you? â Lian Lian asked Xi Si.
âThey didnât look carefully. â Xi Siâs forehead was covered with his anger. He was so angry that he wanted to teach these guards a lesson. He didnât know how they did things.
âplease spare our lives, Your Majesty! When we were cleaning up the cutlery, we might have accidentally missed a knife, â the guard said with his head lowered.
âWe just missed a knife. If Your Majesty wants to punish you for such a small matter, how many people will die in this country every day? Your Majesty is not such a cruel person, â Lian Lian Forced Xi Si with her words.
She had deliberately stolen the knife and placed it under the table. She had used the principle of darkness under the lamp to intentionally place it under the table. One was to prove that she did not hide the knife, and the other was to make everyone think that the knife had fallen accidentally After all, no one would casually throw something on the ground if they hid it. Another was the darkness under the lamp. The easier it was to find, the more people would ignore it.
Xi Si was forced by Lian Lianâs words. It was as if if he punished the guards, he would become a cruel person!
âLetâs forget about this matter. If you guys are so careless in the future, I will settle the two debts together with you! â He said coldly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The guards hurriedly thanked him. They were all so shocked that they broke out in cold sweat. Fortunately, they had avoided this calamity.
Xi Siâs gaze landed on the womanâs face like an Eagleâs. The words escaped from the corner of his lips. âYouâve won this bet. What do you want me to promise you? Donât even think about letting you go! â
Lian Lian smiled slightly. âThatâs not what I want you to promise me. Youâre worrying too much. â
She knew herself well and knew that Xi Si would not let her go just for a bet.
âWhatâs that? â Xi Si was a little surprised. In his opinion, the only request Lian Lian could make was to let her go.
âThis basement is too dry. My skin is so dry that it feels uncomfortable. I Want a fountain that looks like a pool. When the water gushes, it can lift the Marble Ball in the pool. I heard that this kind of ball is called a dribble ball. I want this kind of fountain,âLian Lian said.
âYou just want a fountain with a Marble Ball? â Xi Si asked back. It seemed to be too simple.
This kind of fountain was half the height of a person. The bottom was in the style of a Roman column. The top was a marble pool that was more than a meter wide. The marble ball inside was constantly being pushed by the water. The water could even push the marble ball into the air outside the pool.
However, this kind of fountain was really not expensive and was very easy to buy.
