Unaware that My Legitimate Sister is My Husband - Chapter 100
Chapter 100
(38.1)
Caught off guard, Xi Xian met the crown prince.
She couldn’t be sure whether or not she still had the same attraction for him, but he didn’t seem to have any interest in her.
Xi Xian tried her best to suppress her embarrassment, crouching down on the ground, out of her wits, not even able to speak for a while, with tears dripping on the ground.
The old matriarch Lin looked at Xi Xian, and slightly frowned, but she could not say anything.
Xi Xian was like a rabbit waiting to be slaughtered, all the hair on her body stood up, and she shrank into a ball.
The old matriarch Lin’s heart softened, so she could only make concessions to avoid trouble. She sighed and said: “It’s just a disagreement between two young girls, why are you two like this?”
She then turned her head, and sighed towards Lin Zixian: “Xian’er, you are much older than the Xi sixth miss, you should be more tolerant, I’m the one who usually teach you no good, which caused you to conduct yourself in such a reckless way.”
Lin Zixian cried: “Grandmother, obviously it’s her ……”
The old matriarch shook her head to interrupt her and said: “Do not speak again. You think it’s still not chaotic enough ?”
The old matriarch Lin ordered Xi Xian to get up, so a few maidservants helped the trembling Xi Xian get up, and then the old lady said to the man: “I made you look at a joke.”
The man pinched the white jade ring on his finger, and slowly smiled: “It’s nothing, I’ve come today to accompany you in celebrating your birthday.”
The man’s cool gaze fell on Xi Xian, with some interest, before quickly withdrawing, and not looking at her again.
The old matriarch Lin didn’t know whether the two of them had already spoken to each other, but the man now acted as if he didn’t know Xi Xian at all, very indifferent and cold, while Xi Xian was very strangely timid.
The old matriarch Lin wasn’t very clear about the matters of the crown prince, so she sighed and could only have Xi Xian come forward in front of her, while ordering the maidservant to go fetch water.
The old lady held Xi Xian’s small hand and softly asked, “Why are you so scared ah?”
The young girl’s hand was soft, her big eyes were innocently drooping, with tears in her eyes not falling, like a delicate doll, but also like a docile little pet, which made the old lady’s heart itchy.
The old matriarch’s tone sounded like she was talking to a child, and when Xi Xian obediently lowered her head, she saw the old lady moving and taking a handkerchief.
Because she had sobbed, her nose was all red, and she wanted to avoid it, but the old lady steadily held her hand, and started to wipe her face little by little with the wet handkerchief, instantly wiping off the layer of yellow powder. A little embarrassed, she bowed her head, so ashamed her face turned fully red.
The old matriarch Lin sighed and said with deep meaning, “Miss, you are young, your skin color is originally very bright, applying powder that only married women use will reduce by half your beauty, don’t be so silly in the future.”
The man sitting on the side only took a light glance, and saw Xi Xian’s exposed snow white cheeks, he took the cup of tea with one hand and slowly drank a mouthful.
Seeing him like this, Lin Zixian’s heart that was hanging in the air could finally relax.
Taizi gege was never one to talk a lot, and he was even more lazy to talk to random people.
But she had the feeling that something was strange, perhaps it was her intuition as a woman, or perhaps it was because Xi Xian was really too soft, like a ball of soft fragrant white flour, both men and women would feel like trampling on it a few times, tearing it apart into different positions, so that she would cry and act pampered.
The crown prince, as a mature man, would definitely also have that kind of feeling.
Lin Zixian wanted to slap herself after thinking of this. What the hell was this?
The old matriarch Lin ordered the maid to lead Xi Xian by the hand and bring her inside to freshen up and comb her hair, speaking in a very gentle and soft voice, as if she was afraid of startling the young girl.
Xi Xian was finally out of the crown prince’s line of sight. Before leaving, when she was standing a little far away from him, she quietly took a glance at him, but saw that the man inclined his head to listen to the old matriarch say something, slowly sipping tea, and smiling, seemingly unconcerned.
He was a man of very few words, and from beginning to end he did not speak, seeming more like an outsider, but when he was really mean to people, he could be extremely vicious and accurate.
On this point, he was very similar to her legitimate sister.
Xi Xian was made to sit in front of the dressing table, and from head to toe was dressed up once again, Lin Zixian had already ordered the servants to redo her own makeup and hair, only Xi Xian still looked a little messy and pitiful. The golden flower inlay on her forehead and the golden flowers in her bun were taken off, replaced with turquoise flowers, on both sides of her temples, her ink black hair was draping over her shoulder, making her snow-white and tender face appear even more vivid and young.
This was a stunning and delicate face, with trembling water waves in her eyes, seeming to carry timidity and fear.
Fortunately, she had one hand in advance, and had previously applied some yellow powder on herself just in case.
But now, she could not escape.
Xi Xian more than anything did not want to go out now.
She knew how big of an appeal her original appearance had on that man.
