Chapter 4 She is a bit different
Before Li Xianger could refute, a voice came in, “Sisters are really in good spirits early in the morning. You all came so early. Qiansui will certainly be very happy.”
A well-dressed woman walked in. Her face was like peach blossom. It was so beautiful that it made people seem to feel the air of spring. The one who arrived was a beauty who recently got favored named Ye Qianqian. There was one reason why Ye Qianqian got favored. That was because she was beautiful. Her skin was very good; soft and translucent. She looked full of life with ample spirit.
Zhao Zimu silently took a sip of water. Those were things that she couldn’t compare with.
“Big sister, you have taken my seat,” Ye Qianqian stood in front of her and said.
Oh. Zhao Zimu lowered her eyes and secretly sighed that she (YQ) didn’t know how to curb her arrogance.
Originally, everyone thought that Zhao Zimu would give up her seat to Ye Qianqian because the impression that they had of Zhao Zimu was that she was the kind of person with an extremely cold personality and who wouldn’t fight. However, no one expected that Zhao Zimu raised her eyes, smiled and said, “I sat here first.”
Everyone was shocked and looked at her surprised and with puzzled eyes. Even Ling Er who was standing far away had her mouth wide open and was dumfounded. She thought about what the matter was with her miss. Could it be that she was still not awake? Otherwise, why would she make such a move that didn’t conform her character?
Although, she had many question, Ling Er couldn’t go forward and pull her miss back. She could only be anxious in her heart.
The beauties thought even more. However, no matter what they were thinking, Zhao Zimu didn’t plan on giving up her seat. Ye Qianqian could only go away with hate and squeezed the other beauty on the right side from her seat and sit in that seat. That beauty could only sit with a bad expression in Zhao Zimu’s original seat.
It was almost time. When Lin Qing appeared, the breakfast was all set up. After everyone paid their respect, Ling Qing signaled with his hand for everyone to sit down. Then, he waited for someone to serve him.
When the beauties saw that Lin Qing was here, they all chatted and laughed. While they chatted about the interesting things that happened recently, they picked some small dishes for Lin Qing from time to time. The atmosphere was very harmonious as if their relationship was very good.
The person in charge of picking the dishes quickly stopped moving his chopsticks because his responsibility had been spontaneously taken over by a beauty. Lin Qing also didn’t stop and let it go one like this.
However, what was on Lin Qing’s plate? Bird’s nest, pork belly, shark’s fin; these heavy tasted and greasy things were here because the housekeeper took the preferences of the beauties into account and let the cook make them. However, what the beauties liked may not be what Qiansui liked.
The housekeeper stood silently on a side. Qiansui hasn’t said anything about it, naturally, he would also not say anything. However, Qiansui moved his chopsticks fewer and fewer times and his face was a bit gloomy.
Just when Lin Qing wanted to end this unpleasant breakfast, one hand silently put a bowl of warm soy milk in front of him. The hand was retrieved as soon as the soy milk was put down. Lin Qing looked in that direction and went blank for a moment. It was her?
Lin Qing picked the bowl of soy milk and silently took a sip. His stomach seemed to be rinsed with a hot steam. It was very comfortable. He wanted to take another sip when another small dish was on the table in front of him. There were two small dumplings inside. This kind of thing was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was very suitable with soy milk. Lin Qing glanced in that direction again. He saw that person just retracted her hand and sat at the table. It seemed that she had long finished and was sitting quietly with her head down. It was as if nothing had happened just now and he also couldn’t see what she was thinking.
Lin Qing withdraw his gaze, picked the chopsticks and ate the two dumplings. After he finished drinking the soy milk, he entered the palace. Because yesterday was the third prince’s birthday, the emperor specially postponed today’s morning court. So, Lin Qing had the time to calmly eat breakfast in his own residence and then go to the palace.
After everyone scattered, Ling Er immediately jumped to Zhao Zimu with a worried look and that she wanted to say something look. Zhao Zimu didn’t say anything and walked to her place. Halfway, Ling Er couldn’t help but say, “Miss?”
Ling Er was very worried, but she didn’t know what she was worried about. She could only timidly follow behind Zhao Zimu. Zhao Zimu didn’t say anything. Only after they entered her courtyard did she turn around, look at Ling Er and smiled, “Silly girl, don’t think about foolish matters. Your miss knows what she is doing.”
After hearing this, the little girl became happy again. It was fine as long as miss was happy. She shouldn’t bother about so many things.
Zhao Zimu shook her head. Truly foolishly cute.

At this time, in the head of Lin Qing who had entered the palace constantly appeared that quiet figure. He remembered that she had already entered the residence for three years. However, she didn’t appear in front of him often like the other beauties. It was because of this that he had remembered her. After all, the women in his residence wouldn’t stay for long and it was not worth for him to use effort to remember them.
However, she was different. After her father gifted her to him, she stayed quietly and indifferently in Jiu Qiansui’s residence. Even if she didn’t fit with the people around her, she still lived so freely. She never had any request and never appeared in front of him on her own initiative. What the others had in their eyes, she didn’t have. She was so clean that she didn’t seem like someone from Qiansui’s residence. It was because of this that Lin Qing let her stay in Jiu Qiansui’s residence.
But, what was going on now? He narrowed his eyes and didn’t think about these for a while. Today’s morning court would start soon. A cold smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. Last night, someone gave him such a surprise. How could he not return the gift today?
