Xuanyuan Hao thought, “Drink it. Then you’ll be free from pain. Everything will be returned to the past.”

Suddenly, with a bang, the door was kicked open.

Meanwhile, the tea bowl in Duanmu Xi’s hand was knocked away.

“Bang…”

The tea bowl hit the wall and directly turned into pieces. The tea splashed here and there.

All the people in the private room were dumbstruck by the sudden scene. Then, they all turned around and looked out of the door.

Xuanyuan Mo was standing out of the door with a serious face, his chest heaving. He seemed to rush here from far away.

Xuanyuan Hao looked at the tea bowl that had tipped over, his eyes glistening with unwillingness. In astonishment, he looked out of the door and thought, “Xuanyuan Mo! You again! You came at such bad timing. I was so close to making it! So close.”

Duanmu Xi looked at her hands in a daze. She didn’t come to her senses until Phoenix Five and Lishang saluted Xuanyuan Mo.

“Snow?” Why was he here? Shouldn’t he be in the military camp?

Xuanyuan Mo walked to Duanmu Xi and stared at her seriously, “My dear wife, do you remember what I have told you?”

Hearing that Xuanyuan Mo called her wife, the boy was surprised. It turned out that she was a woman. No wonder her hands were so soft.

“What?” Duanmu Xi looked away with a guilty conscience. Oh no, she ran away behind Snow’s back. Snow must be angry.

“I’ve told you not to eat or drink anything given by strangers. How can you forget it?”

When Xuanyuan Mo spoke of strangers, he looked at Xuanyuan Hao on purpose. Obviously, by “strangers”, he was referring to Xuanyuan Hao.

Duanmu Xi blinked her eyes and finally understood what Snow was talking about. However, she didn’t eat anything given by strangers. She had eaten some dishes only.

Xuanyuan Hao’s eyes gleamed with fierceness. He looked at Xuanyuan Mo and curled his lips, “Mo, are you afraid that I put poison in the tea?”

After he said that, all the people looked at Xuanyuan Hao with suspicion.

Duanmu Xi slightly knitted her eyebrows. Did Snow tip over her tea bowl because Xuanyuan Hao put poison in the tea?

Xuanyuan Mo said nothing but his eyes were fixed on Xuanyuan Hao coldly.

Gazed at by all the people with suspicion, Xuanyuan Mo sneered, “It seems that you and Xi don’t trust me.”

Xuanyuan Hao poured some white tea for himself and then drank it up.

Duanmu Xi watched Xuanyuan Hao drink the white tea and frowned even more deeply.

Xuanyuan Mo slightly curled his lips, “Something is not poison but it is more horrid than poison.”

The moment Xuanyuan Hao heard that, his gentle smile stiffened and the knuckles of his hand holding the tea bowl slightly whitened.

Staring at the dark face of Xuanyuan Hao, Xuanyuan Mo put on a grim look, “Since you like the white tea so much, Xi and I will leave you alone then.”

Xuanyuan Mo just paid no heed to Xuanyuan Hao, directly carried Duanmu Xi in his arms and walked out of the room.

Startled by Xuanyuan Mo’s sudden action, Duanmu Xi subconsciously put her arms around his neck. Upon thinking of that boy, she patted Xuanyuan Mo’s shoulder, “The boy, the boy.”

Upon hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo knitted his eyebrows and ordered Lishang without looking back, “Lishang, take the boy to the prince’s mansion after he finishes the meal.”

“Yes,” Lishang immediately replied respectfully.

Duanmu Xi saw people pointing fingers at them on the road and suddenly realized that she was wearing male clothes.

“Snow, put me down. I’ll walk back myself,” Duanmu Xi said and meanwhile struggled to get down.

“Don’t you dare to move!” Xuanyuan Mo spanked Duanmu Xi’s butt, “I’ll punish you when we’re back.”

Duanmu Xi blushed at once, put her arms around Xuanyuan Mo’s neck and buried her face in his arms. In the middle of shopping, she was carried back last time. This time, she was carried back too. Most unacceptably, she was disguised as a man. Now that he was holding her in his arms, those not in the know would think that they were gays!

A while later, Duanmu Xi asked sulkily, “Snow, what was in the white tea?”

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo stiffened and tightened his arms around Duanmu Xi’s body. Thinking of what happened just now, he felt retrospective fear. If it were not because Yu Ying kept following her, the consequences would be unimaginable. At the thought of the possibility that she and the babies might get hurt, he had an impulse to destroy the world.

Feeling that Xuanyuan Mo was nervous, Duanmu Xi tightened her arms around Xuanyuan Mo’s neck and said sulkily, “I didn’t mean to drink the white tea. Even if you didn’t rush inside, I wouldn’t drink the white tea.”

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo hedged and looked at Duanmu Xi in his arms, saying with a frown, “Really?”

“Yes.” Duanmu Xi looked at Xuanyuan Mo and smiled, “Now that I’m pregnant, I’d better not drink tea. Thus, even if you didn’t come inside, I wouldn’t drink the tea.”

Back then, she felt that the tea smelt very special so she only picked it up and smelt it.

Xuanyuan Mo knitted his eyebrows. A pregnant woman couldn’t have tea? Doctor Liu didn’t seem to have told him about this. He must mark it down.

“What on earth was in the white tea?” Duanmu Xi was a bit curious. The white tea couldn’t be poisonous. Otherwise, Xuanyuan Hao wouldn’t dare to drink the tea.

Looking at the curious face of Duanmu Xi, Xuanyuan Mo slightly smiled, “I can’t be sure of it but Yu Ying saw him put something into the teapot in secret. Even if it was not poison, it couldn’t be anything good.”

Speaking of Xuanyuan Hao, Xuanyuan Mo put on a stern look. It didn’t matter what Xuanyuan Hao had put into the tea. As long as he wanted to hurt Xi, Xuanyuan Mo wouldn’t let him go.

Yu Ying? Duanmu Xi took a tumble and nodded. No wonder Snow would come back from the military camp and make it to the restaurant in time. It turned out that it was Yu Ying who had informed him in secret.

In the private room of the restaurant, Lishang and the others had left with the boy. Only Xuanyuan Hao was left in the private room.

Currently, Xuanyuan Hao had shown his true colors. The gentle look on his face had been replaced by fierceness. His dark eyes were filled with crazy jealousy and resentment rather than calmness.

“Crack…” The tea bowl in his hand was crushed. The broken pieces were held in his palm. Blood mixed with the tea dripped down the edge of the table, splashing on the ground.

Xuanyuan Mo directly carried Duanmu Xi back to Xuelan House. Upon entering the room, Xuanyuan Mo started to take off Duanmu Xi’s male costume.

Staring at Xuanyuan Mo taking off her clothes with a prim look, Duanmu Xi slightly blushed, “Snow… I can do it myself.”

Xuanyuan Mo paid no heed to Duanmu Xi’s reaction. He just took off her male clothes and didn’t stop until only a light yellow bellyband was left on her body.

In the face of the beauty in front, Xuanyuan Mo’s amber eyes suddenly darkened. He took the jade crown off Duanmu Xi’s hair gently.

Instantly, her dark and long hair scattered like a fall. Her slim neck was as smooth as the white porcelain. Her fair-skinned shoulders were glowing like the white jade. And her light yellow bellyband could hardly cover her bosoms.

Feeling Xuanyuan Mo’s passionate eyes, Duanmu Xi looked away bashfully. Did Snow hold back his desire for too long?

At the thought of that, Duanmu Xi felt warm and then lowered her head only to see that Xuanyuan Mo was putting the clothes on her.

Duanmu Xi gathered her clothes and said with a red face, “Snow, I want to put on the clothes myself.”

Xuanyuan Mo still paid no heed to Duanmu Xi’s objection and helped Duanmu Xi put on clothes gently.

Looking at Xuanyuan Mo saying nothing, Duanmu Xi slightly frowned and ventured to ask, “Snow… Are you mad?”

Xuanyuan Mo stiffened, raised Duanmu Xi’s chin and directly captured her red lips.

His kiss was masterful and wild. And his hot tongue was sweeping across her mouth as if punishing her.

Undertaking Xuanyuan Mo’s angry kiss passively, Duanmu Xi smiled bitterly. It seemed that Snow was really angry.

She put her arms around his neck, closed her eyes slowly and reached out her tongue to respond to him.

Duanmu Xi’s response made Xuanyuan Mo’s kiss no longer wild. Instead, his kiss became gradually gentle.

Feeling Xuanyuan Mo’s change, Duanmu Xi was delighted and stood on tiptoe to kiss him back more passionately.

Duanmu Xi’s passionate response rendered Xuanyuan Mo’s kiss increasingly tender.

After a passionate kiss, they were both a bit out of breath. Duanmu Xi leaned against Xuanyuan Mo’s arms feebly and didn’t feel like moving at all.

Xuanyuan Mo put his arms around Duanmu Xi and lowered his head to whisper to her ear, “If you dare to run out in secret again, I will do it with you directly.” His hoarse voice was full of lust.

Duanmu Xi curled her lips and grinned. He was intimidating her but his words were not threatening at all.

“Your Highness.” Outside the door, Lishang was knocking on the door.

“What’s up?” Upon hearing the voice, Xuanyuan Mo knitted his eyebrows.

Lishang immediately said respectfully, “I’ve brought the boy back to the mansion. May I know where he should stay?”

“Take him to the Southern Courtyard.”

“Bring him to the Eastern Courtyard.” Two voices sounded at the same time in the room.

The corner of Lishang’s mouth twitched. Why did they reach a consensus first?

In the room, Xuanyuan Mo stared at Duanmu Xi. Faced with Xuanyuan Mo’s threatening eyes, Duanmu Xi compromised resignedly and said to Lishang outside the door, “Take him to the Southern Courtyard and help him wash up. Snow and I will go and visit him.”

“Yes.” Outside the door, Lishang immediately left upon hearing the order.

When Duanmu Xi and Xuanyuan Mo arrived at the Southern Courtyard, there were many people in the yard of the Southern Courtyard, including Phoenix Five, Lishang, Yu Ying and Lian Zhengyu.

Duanmu Xi walked past Yu Ying and glared at him. Immediately, he lowered his head with a guilty conscience.

“Why are you all here? Where is the boy?” Duanmu Xi glanced around and didn’t see the boy.

Hearing that, Lishang immediately went forward and said respectfully, “Your Highness, that boy is bathing inside.”

Duanmu Xi gently knitted her eyebrows, “Is he alone?”

“Yes. He doesn’t allow us to serve him inside.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi nodded.

Right at the moment, the door was opened with a squeak. Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned around and looked over there.
