Chapter 17 Admitting Mistakes
After Qiao Ji came back, he never mustered up the courage to enter the door.

He went out to vent, but he didn't know if the princess was still angry with him.

Just when he was hesitating, the maid who came to deliver the snacks entered the yard.

"Give me something."

Qiao Ji stopped the maid and said.

Seeing that it was him, the maid handed over the plate.

Qiao Ji reached out to take it, turned around and came to the door.

He took a deep breath and knocked on Xie Liangyue's door.

"Enter."

Hearing Xie Liangyue's voice came from the room, Qiao Ji finally opened the door.

Xie Liangyue hadn't calmed down yet, when she saw him coming in, she turned her head and didn't look at him.

Qiao Ji put the dinner plate on the table, he clenched his fist unnaturally, and said to Xie Liangyue with a flattery that he didn't realize: "Princess, use some snacks."

Xie Liangyue ignored him.

Seeing this, he became nervous and spoke incoherently: "I don't mean anything else, it's because"

Xie Liangyue turned her head to look at him, but he seemed to be stuck, because he didn't say the reason for a long time.

"Hmph." Xie Liangyue glared at him and turned back.

Qiao Ji's face showed embarrassment, he just felt that he was really stupid to death, and he would never make a girl happy.

He hesitated for a long time, but decided to apologize first.

"I was wrong."

Probably because I apologized before, so I didn't say it so bluntly this time.

Xie Liangyue ignored him again.

After a while, Xie Liangyue heard that there was no movement behind her, so she thought it was on purpose.

She secretly glanced sideways, only to see Qiao Ji's bewildered expression.

Xie Liangyue felt that this expression did not match his appearance, but unexpectedly felt a hint of harmony from it.

It's like a ferocious wolf dog begging for mercy in front of its master after making a mistake.

She took this opportunity to observe Qiao Ji's appearance carefully.

Before, Xie Liangyue just thought that if he was placed in the crowd, he must be the outstanding one.

But now she discovered that Qiao Ji's good looks were not just superficial.

In addition to his excellent skin, he also has an outstanding temperament. Even in the capital, many royal children may not have such a light.

Even his current aggrieved appearance is very pleasing to the eye.

Although Xie Liangyue didn't want to admit it, she was indeed a person who judged people by their appearance.

"What the hell are you up to today?"

She couldn't hold back and asked.

Seeing that she was willing to talk to him, Qiao Ji became emotional instantly.

But jealousy is really hard to talk about, not to mention that they are just a master-servant relationship.

Qiao Ji shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, just think I'm crazy."

"Crazy?" Xie Liangyue sneered, "Have you forgotten your identity? You are so brave to be crazy with me."

"My subordinates dare not."

Qiao Ji half-kneeled on the ground, bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "This subordinate lost his composure temporarily, please punish the princess."

"That's all I can say."

Xie Liangyue glanced at him, got up and sat down at the table, picked up the dessert on the plate and took a bite.

"It's too unpalatable," Xie Liangyue complained, "What a poor cook."

She frowned and put the dim sum aside casually, then said to Qiao Ji, "Come here and eat this plate of dim sum."

Qiao Ji walked over in response, picked up the snack and stuffed it into his mouth.

It's too sweet, Qiao Ji frowned while eating, no wonder the princess doesn't like it, it's really not her taste.

He poured a cup of tea and ate up the plate of dim sum with the tea, even the piece that Xie Liangyue threw on the table was not spared.

After eating, he reported the result to Xie Liangyue as if asking for credit.

Xie Liangyue looked at his serious look and asked deliberately: "Is it delicious?"

Qiao Ji's eyes wandered, and after a moment of deliberation, he nodded slightly.

"Pfft!" Xie Liangyue was successfully amused by him, "You're lying."

Qiao Ji pursed her lips, and said softly, "It's all good if the princess rewards you."

Xie Liangyue was pleased by these words, she moved closer, and said: "I won't argue with you this time, if there is another time, the princess will never let you down."

The familiar Leng Meixiang swept over his nerves again, and Qiao Ji now felt that those unpalatable snacks were not so greasy.

He nodded stiffly, "There will be no next time."

"It's not too bad." Xie Liangyue took a step back, looked at the plate on the table and curled her lips, "The dim sum in the house is still delicious."

"The palace is full of royal chefs, so it must be incomparable."

Xie Liangyue nodded and asked, "What kind of dim sum do you like?"

Qiao Ji was taken aback when he heard that, and replied slowly, "Moon cakes."

"moon cake?"

"Yeah, mooncakes with red bean filling."

When he answered, he was very solemn, and his eyes staring at Xie Liangyue were very bright.

Xie Liangyue was a little surprised, "It's a coincidence, I also like red bean flavored mooncakes."

Qiao Ji smiled and lowered his head, "I know."

Xie Liangyue didn't hear his whispering. She poured a cup of tea and sipped it slowly, and said, "When I get back to the capital, let the kitchen make more, and then I'll share half of it with you."

She looked serious when she spoke, which made Qiao Ji's heart warm.

"Are you having trouble because I accepted Ji Chulan?"

The topic changed suddenly, and the smile on Qiao Ji's face froze instantly.

"No."

Xie Liangyue saw his pretended relaxed attitude, which made Xie Liangyue a little speechless for a while.

"It's fine if you don't have one. In the future, you will have to deal with each other, and peace is the most important thing."

Qiao Ji nodded. Although he didn't know why the princess had to accept Ji Chulan, since she did so, she naturally had her reasons.

"Go and pack up, we'll leave tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? So let's forget about Gao Tianrui?"

Xie Liangyue cast a sideways glance at him, "The future will be long, if you push too hard, it will easily startle the snake."
-
"The next official hasn't been able to treat her properly, so the princess is leaving now."

When Gao Taining sent Xie Liangyue out, he said with regret.

"Master Gao, you are very polite. Your residence's hospitality is very special. This princess feels very honored."

The word "honour" was pointed out by her proudly, Gao Taining stared blankly for a moment, and smiled awkwardly.

"Okay, Kochifu, please go back, see you in the future if there is a chance."

Xie Liangyue bowed slightly to him dignifiedly, turned around and got into the carriage.

"Congratulations to the princess——"

Gao Taining sent Xie Liangyue away with a bow, until the other party's carriage gradually disappeared from his sight, he put away the deliberate smile on his face and narrowed his eyes.

The carriage left Qinzhou City for about two or three miles, and turned outside a sparsely populated thatched cottage.

The driver slowed down and only waved his whip after the people in the yard came out and jumped into the car.

Unconsciously, Xie Liangyue looked through the car window at Qinzhou City, which was being thrown farther and farther behind, until he drove into the mountain road.
