Chapter 40.1

Wen Chi felt that it was necessary for him to explain: “No, you think too much, I just…”

Unexpectedly, Li Yu waved his hand, showing an expression that he understood everything: “Young Master Wen, need not say much. My mother once said that it is inconvenient to tell anyone about this before the child is full-term.”

Wen Chi: “…”

Seeing that Wen Chi didn’t speak, Li Yu patted his chest and swore: “My mouth is sealed and I won’t say a word to anyone. Please rest assured, Young Master Wen.”

Wen Chi was at a loss: “I just ate too much recently and gained weight.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Li Yu cooperated understandingly, “Young Master Wen is just getting fat.”

After he finished speaking, he winked at Wen Chi proudly, like a primary school student who just finished his performance asking for praise from his teacher.

Wen Chi: “…”

He almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

In the end, Wen Chi didn’t bother to explain. Because no matter how he tried to explain, Li Yu thought he was covering up.

Li Yu only believed in what he sees – that is, he is fat.

When Wen Chi thought about the fact that he could still gain weight while living in such a stressful environment like he was walking on thin ice, he immediately shed a liter of tears in his heart.

He’s getting fat wu wu wu wu…..

After Li Yu left, Wen Chi turned his head to look at Ruo Fang: “Am I that fat?”

Ruo Fang carefully looked at Wen Chi for a while.

In fact, it was quite obvious that Wen Chi has gained weight, not only Li Yu, but also Ruo Fang, who is serving him closely, can see it.

However, Wen Chi who has gained weight was not ugly, on the contrary, he is much more energetic than before.

When he first entered the palace, Wen Chi was too thin, as if a gust of wind could blow him out. And at that time, Wen Chi often frowned, sitting quietly with a thoughtful look, looking really frail and not as good-looking as he was now.

Thinking of this, Ruo Fang comforted Wen Chi.

Wen Chi finally felt better after hearing Ruo Fang’s words.

Unexpectedly, Ruo Fang suddenly changed the subject and said cautiously: “Young Master Wen, why don’t we invite an imperial doctor to come and see, in case you are really pregnant…”

Wen Chi was taken aback and immediately shook his head and refused: “Don’t think about it, that’s impossible.”

Ruo Fang asked, “Why is it impossible?”

Although Wen Chi felt that it was embarrassing to discuss these private matters with a girl, at this juncture, he had no choice but to confess to Ruo Fang: “Nothing has ever happened between His Highness and me, the pregnancy is purely nonsense.”

Ruo Fang was puzzled: “But last time Young Master and His Highness were in the bathroom ……”

Wen Chi raised his hand to stop Ruo Fang’s thoughts from going astray. He raised his head to look at Ruo Fang and said solemnly: “His Royal Highness and I just took a bath, nothing else.”

Ruo Fang: “…”

Wen Chi doesn’t know if it was an illusion but Ruo Fang looked at him with a bit of hatred in her eyes.

Wen Chi silently moved his gaze away.

He did not know anything, he did not see anything ……

These days without Shi Ye’s interference, Wen Chi enjoys an unprecedented tranquility.

Unfortunately, this rare peace did not last long.

On a sunny afternoon, Eunuch Zhu led several momos who were obviously from outside the palace to the Bamboo Flute Residence.

Eunuch Zhu bowed at Wen Chi and said respectfully “Young Master Wen, His Royal Highness ordered this servants to invite some tailors to measure Young Master Wen’s cloth size.”

Wen Chi was lying on a chair basking in the sun, hearing this, he couldn’t help but look at the momos: “Tailoring for what?”

Eunuch Zhu replied respectfully: “Of course it is to make clothes for Young Master Wen.”

Wen Chi felt that it was a novelty and became interested. He got up from the chair: “Are they making clothes for the new season?”

Now it’s the end of winter and the beginning of spring. He only had a few thin clothes in his closet, so it was time to buy more clothes.

However, Eunuch Zhu shook his head lightly and replied: “His Royal Highness ordered this servant to make clothes for Young Master Wen to go to the peach blossom banquet. If Young Master Wen needs it,  this servant will also make Young Master Wen’s spring clothes as well.”

Wen Chi: “…”

Peach Blossom Banquet?

He suspected he had heard it wrong.

Not to mention that the Peach Blossom Banquet is the main stage for the protagonist but also Shi Ye in the novel never appeared at the Peach Blossom Banquet. Even when the Grand Princess invited Shi Ye to the Peach Blossom Banquet, Shi Ye still looked like he was not interested, why did he change his mind so quickly?

During measurement taking, Wen Chi couldn’t help but inquire from Eunuch Zhu: “Eunuch Zhu, has His Highness decided to go to the Peach Blossom Banquet?”

Eunuch Zhu stood by the side with a whisk in his arms and seemed to think for a while before replying: “Not only His Royal Highness, but also you, Young Master Wen.”

Wen Chi was confused: “Why me?”

Eunuch Zhu said indifferently: “Because His Highness the Crown Prince named you to accompany him.”

Wen Chi: “…”

Whether it was on intentionally or not, Eunuch Zhu added: “And only Young Master Wen will be the only one accompanying him.”

Wen Chi: “…”

No……
