Chapter 521 Welcome Back! (2)
He took a deep breath and only revealed a seemingly breezy smile after a moment. He accepted a wine cup from one of the servants and raised a toast to Gong Yimo.
“Having parted for years, I can see that Mo’er has grown!”
His eyelashes trembled, hiding the emotion within his eyes. He forced himself to look away. “If there was anything ever I did wrong when we were young, I hope that Imperial Sister can be magnanimous and forget about it. This is a toast to you, let all that happened in the past, pass...Congratulations on your return!”
After he finished these words which meaning seemed to be unclear, he threw his head back and drank his wine while Gong Yimo was slightly taken aback. It took a while before she pulled up a smile.
“It is good as long as you are over it, Imperial Brother. Welcome back to the capital!”
As she said that, she threw her head back and drank her wine!
When she tilted her head back, the slight movements of her throat could be seen through her fair neck. It was such a gentle arc that Gong Che could not help but be deeply attracted by it. Completely smitten, even his throat began to bob.
His Mo’er is truly beautiful! He had to use every last drop of air in him just to restrain himself!
But nobody is happier than the Empress! Is there anything worth being happy about more than his son getting over her?!
These successive surprises were dizzying for her, so much so that she didn’t even pay attention to the details and believed that Gong Che had really let her go.
And, after Gong Yimo finished her wine, all she felt was relief! She was still nervous about how she was going to face Gong Che, but it’s great that Gong Che has already let go, because he really is a very good big brother that brings her warmth. And, that’s exactly the kind of brother she needed right now!
With that thought, her smile became much more sincere. The pressure that’s been permeating the place since she came in finally dispersed and everyone felt their chests loosen.
At this moment, when the noble ladies were all feeling envious of Su Miaolan, someone suddenly said.
“His Highness has truly come at a wonderful time! Sister Su is just about to perform a dance, what an honor!”
As soon as she opened her mouth, Su Miaolan’s originally bashful expression changed. If there were only the ladies present, then it would be fine for her to perform, but now that the crown prince is here, and his confidants following behind him, how could she have the face to perform in front of so many people?
But the other noblewomen would not let her go.
“They all say that Sister Su is a great dancer. What a joy this will be to watch!”
“Yes, exactly!”
The crown prince seemed to be interested when they heard them, and he asked someone to set up a seat next to Gong Yimo.
“In that case, then I really am fortunate today. If it truly is amazing, then I will have a great reward prepared.”
So he means that he actually does not mind Su Miaolan dancing in front of everyone? And, he was even smiling frankly, seeming as comfortably warm as the warm sun, not at all feeling troubled.
Many could not help but think that the crown prince might be heartless. He must not understand the woes of women.
When she saw this, the empress frowned. She was about to speak, but Su Miaolan suddenly giggled.
“In that case, then I will give a humble performance.” She smiled warmly towards Gong Che, filled with tenderness and expectation.
She was going to be married to the crown prince anyway, why not show her good side to him?
When the noble ladies saw her agreeing so easily, they all scolded her in their hearts for being a vixen, but they were only envious that she could perform like that in front of Gong Che. Even if they wanted to, they wouldn’t have the guts to do the same.
