Chapter 1261: Mo Chuxi Stays to Witness Yan Xinxin and Jun Shengye’s Engagement Ceremony
"You want me to apologize?"
The woman was defiant, glancing sideways at Jun Shengye.
She was Jun Shengye’s wet nurse, having raised him since he was a child.
In the entire Charlo Castle, she, Shasha, was second only to two people, but above all others!
"You don’t need to look at Shi Liu; right now, I want you to apologize. If you don’t, you are disregarding Nana and me."
Upon hearing these words, the woman instantly became docile.
"Shasha dares not!"
She hurriedly apologized.
Having served this master for so many years, she could distinguish between genuine anger and pretend anger.
If she truly angered Her Majesty, no one she called for help would be of any use!
"Lady Nana, gentlemen, I apologize for what I just said."
She bowed low, quickly changing her attitude.
"Since these two gentlemen are Lady Nana’s friends, you should stay; I will arrange your accommodations."
"Hmph."
Xu Nuo chuckled lightly at these words.
"I think you’re used to issuing orders while the master is away, aren’t you? Your mistress hasn’t yet decided how to settle us, but you’ve made the decision yourself."
"..."
Hearing Xu Nuo’s words, Shasha’s expression became even more awkward!
She quickly walked back to Queen Lisi’s side.
"Shasha was only trying to ease the Queen’s burden, with no other intentions!"
"Nana, it seems your boyfriend is not simple either."
Jun Shengye spoke, curling his lips as he looked at Yan Xinxin.
"Qianyuan, let’s not bother with these people. You said you were hungry, so I’ll have someone prepare food immediately and bring it to your room. We can chat and eat there together."
"Okay."
Yan Xinxin replied without hesitation, her gentle gaze shifting from Mo Chuxi.
"Then let’s go back to the room now!"
"Mm."
Jun Shengye nodded, glancing back at the silent Queen Lisi.
"Grandmother, Qianyuan and I don’t want to spoil the mood; we’ll return to the room first. I’ll discuss the engagement with you personally later. Shi Liu will take his leave now."
As he spoke, he reached out for Yan Xinxin’s hand.
But, whether by coincidence or not, Yan Xinxin’s hands happened to lift her skirt.
"The dress is so big, it’s hard to walk."
She said this one line.
Jun Shengye didn’t mind, smiling as he extended a hand to help lift the skirt.
Mo Chuxi just watched as Yan Xinxin raised her delicate little face, her indifferent gaze skimming over his face, then turned away.
"Since you are friends of Nana, you should stay for my grandson’s succession ceremony and engagement."
Queen Lisi spoke with a smile, inviting them with sincerity.
"The world is vast, and it’s not unusual for people and things to resemble each other. The young lady, Qianyuan, herself said she doesn’t know you. I think, Young Master Mo, you’ve truly mistaken someone. My grandson wouldn’t do something as absurd as stealing someone else’s wife."
Seeing Yan Xinxin’s figure disappear from sight, Mo Chuxi couldn’t bear the separation and anguish any longer.
He slightly lowered his gaze, letting out a self-mocking chuckle.
"Perhaps I’ve mistaken her in my lovesick state; my dear Yuan would never not recognize me."
He smiled bitterly. Seeing him this way, Xu Nuo and Selena exchanged glances.
"Thank you for your kindness, Queen. I will stay to attend the ceremony."
Mo Chuxi opened his lips, sadness flickering in his eyes.
"I believe my wife will return to my side one day."
Queen Lisi saw the tender love in Mo Chuxi’s eyes and nodded almost imperceptibly.
The sky darkened.
After Jun Shengye accompanied Yan Xinxin for dinner, he let the servants attend to her, while he consciously went to find Queen Lisi.
Not long after, three figures appeared in the corridor leading to Yan Xinxin’s bedroom.
Mo Chuxi, wearing a black suit, still exuded elegance despite his bodyguard attire. Xu Nuo was similarly dressed, both following behind Selena.
When they reached Yan Xinxin’s room, two maids at the door stopped them.
"I’m here to see my future cousin-in-law; please open the door."
