Zhao Zhang Wei stood in front of the painting that his wangfei had drawn and thought that it looked exactly like him.
On the white sheet was drawn a pink-colored small pig that seemed to be strolling in the garden. However, there was more to this scene.
The pig was seen to be walking towards a muddy area.
And since Yi Huiqing's painting skills were a bit strange she didn't even draw anything properly. The legs of the pig looked unequal and its nose was also a little crooked.
And she said that the pig looked like him.
His face almost went black because of anger and his lips were twitching.
From where does he look like a pig?
When he glanced sideways at his wangfei who looked shocked seeing him standing beside her, he sneered.
"Wangfei's painting skills are admirable. What did you imagine when you painted this?"
Although afraid, Yi Huiqing was satisfied with his praise and thought that he must have not heard what she was asking Lin Daiyu.
Answering his second question she said
"Of Course it's yo…"
But suddenly bit her tongue when she realized what she was about to blurt out.
"Why is Wangfei not saying anything?" Zhao Zhang Wei asked her with a cold smile again.
His cold smile seemed to scare Yi Huiqing as she hurriedly thought of an answer.

She was shocked when she realized what she has said out loud.
She was about to change her words when she saw Zhao Zhang Wei nodding his head while returning his eyes back to the painting.
"Hmm…it indeed looks a bit like Wangfei."
At his words, Yi Huiqing was so angry that she felt vomiting out red blood in rage.
'In which way the pig looks like me? It obviously looked exactly like him.'
Standing behind her, Lin Daiyu covered her mouth and laughed silently. She instantly took a few steps back to leave when she saw Zhao Zhang Wei's gaze lingering on her that indicate that she should leave now.
Yi Huiqing only saw the figure of her maid rushing out of the room for a fleeting second.
"Daiyu"
She called out and stood up from the chair.
'Why did she suddenly leave me alone, that too, with this shameless man?'
She was about to go out when her wrist was suddenly grabbed from her behind and the next moment, she felt two arms encircling her waist.
Feeling the body in his arms stiffening, Zhao Zhang Wei frowned and whispered
"Why are you so afraid of me?"
He had actually noticed how Yi Huiqing is trying to avoid him every time he comes to Liang Courtyard. She would either remain silent or would talk so politely that he would feel that he was not talking to her but someone else.
Only if he would do something that could trigger her to forget her polite self, she would talk to him freely and even throw some profanities on him.
Zhao Zhang Wei didn't dislike it. That moment, Yi Huiqing would be in front of him without any cover. Her eyes would be bright when she would get angry, her cheek would go red. All of this would make him so entrance that he would not be able to remove his eyes away from her.
However, he doesn't want to force her every time.
He wants her to remain that way only, at least in front of him.
"Qingqing"
He whispered the name that he had been murmuring from the past few days. A smile spread on his lips when he felt her trembling in his arms.
"Wangye…I…"
Yi Huiqing gulped inaudibly in nervousness and tried to push him away. But his next question froze her actions.
"Can I sleep here tonight…with you?"
He asked gently. Unnoticed by Yi Huiqing there was a pleading tone in his voice. Actually, Zhao Zhang Wei had come with a determined mind that tonight he would spend in Liang Courtyard only.
It was very difficult to sleep without her. And since he had realized his feelings, he should try to get close to her and tell her about it.
Remembering those eyes that used to carry love for him, Zhao Zhang Wei suddenly felt cherished and blessed.
She already loved him. He was confident.
He wanted to know her more and also wanted to feel her love again.
On the other hand, Yi Huiqing's heart had suddenly calmed down as she remembered the reason she was avoiding Zhao Zhang Wei.
Her eyes were calm as she raised her head and answered firmly
"No."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt took a moment for Zhao Zhang Wei to register her answer.
"I'll not irritate you today."
He told her smilingly as he thought perhaps she was still angry at him because of his behavior yesternight.
Blowing warm breath in her hear, he said seductively
"Instead we will do something else. Something very interesting."
Saying this, he even stroked her waist but stopped when he heard her whisper
"Stop."
Taking a deep breath to calm down her emotions, Yi Huiqing continued.
"This Wangfei can't serve Wangye. It will be better if Wangye can go to one of the Younger sisters' courtyard."
Zhao Zhang Wei's face suddenly went cold and his hands slipped down from her body.
"What did you say? Say it again."
His face didn't have any emotion and his phoenix eyes looked very sharp and scary, however, Yi Huiqing didn't feel afraid at all.
"This Wangfei doesn't want to serve Wangye so Wangye should go to Younger sisters' courtyard."
"You…"
Zhao Zhang Wei was so angry by her words that he wanted to destroy the whole room.
He was not furious because of her unwillingness to stay with him but with her indifference. How indifferently she was telling him to go to some other woman's courtyard.
Does she even love him?
At this moment, Zhao Zhang Wei's confidence suddenly started to waver down.
Steeping closer to Yi Huiqing that his warm breath fell on her face, he said dominatingly.
"You're my wangfei. I am your husband and an Imperial Prince.. You can't refuse me, Yi Huiqing."
