"So who is it?" Qi Hong was the imperial prince of the Main Star, if he wanted to find out something there was no way he would not be able to find out about it. With his body lying pliant on the pearly white couch in the middle of the greenhouse that was well equipped with a number of modern types of equipment including a miniature sun, he turned to look at Li Wan who was walking inside the greenhouse with a complicated look on his face.
Earlier Qi Hong sent Li Wan to find out the identity of the woman who wrote the wonderful poetry for Qi Hong but after getting the results, Li Wan looked a tad bit uncomfortable.
" Your Highness, I asked for the address of the woman whom you choose as the winner," began Li Wan while Qi Hong looked at him excitedly, his eyes shining brightly as if he was waiting to meet the woman of his dreams which caused Li Wan to hesitate even more as he replied, " And the address belongs to the house that was allocated to the ex-general Mo Yan on the dead star."
His response caused Qi Hong to sit up straight on his couch as he frowned at Li Wan and exclaimed, " What did you say?"
" The address belongs to Ex general Mo Yan," Li Wan repeated his response causing the furrow between the brows of Qi Hong to deepen as stood up from the couch on which he was sitting and then strode towards Li Wan who was clutching the monitor in his hand. He snatched the monitor from his mer servant and then started chiding him," Give it here, there is no way someone from the house sent me a poem this good——"However as he looked down at the username displayed on the screen, Qi Hong had no other choice but to admit that it was the same person.
Li Wan looked at his master who seemed to have frozen in shock and then asked in a low voice, " Do you think that it is Mo Qian——"
He did not even get to finish his sentence when he was interrupted by Qi Hong who determinedly spat one word with abundant force, " No." the third prince turned to look at his butler and then said with a smile, " There is no way that vulgar woman can up with such delicate poetry… I believe that it must have been Mo Xifeng."
The more Qi Hong thought about it the more he thought that he was right, Mo Qiang was a woman who did not have any interest in intellectual things. Writing a poem? Haha, it will be surprising if she was even able to string two words together much less write poetry that could win his heart. It must have been Mo Xifeng—— he had heard a lot about the second daughter of the Ex-General Mo.
It was said that if the Mo family did not get exiled, then Mo Xifeng would have become the youngest mecha morph with a core that was stronger than others. That woman was not only wise but she was even gentle and kind, what was more she looked so beautiful with that angelic hair and eyes of hers!
There was one time at a ball that was held by the imperial family when Qi Hong fell for her the second he looked at her, he waited for the woman to come and ask for his hand such that the two of them could dance together but to his surprise, Mo Xifeng did not approach him. Maybe it was because of the fact that Mo Qiang was chasing after him that the woman strayed away from him but Qi Hong knew that the woman wanted him.
After all, no woman who was born in the main star would be able to resist him!
This was why he was the one who took the liberty to ask Mo Xifeng for a dance, but then to his utter disbelief, the woman refused! She refused him!
It was such a crushing blow that Qi Hong stayed in shock for three days straight but now——
" Hahahahaha!" Qi Hong clenched his fists and then laughed joyfully while twisting his waist and walking towards the couch where he was sitting earlier. " I knew it! I knew that there was no way anyone will be able to refuse me. She must have been shy during the banquet and with her annoying sister making it her mission to stalk me, Miss Xifeng must have wanted to avoid trouble."
He flicked his hair haughtily as he tipped his chin up like a peacock who was extremely satisfied after performing a wonderful dance.
Li Wan looked down at the username that said [ Anonymous bob] and felt his lips twitch somewhere he felt rather amazed that a woman like Mo Xifeng would use such a username but then again what his master said seemed to make sense as well.
Mo Qiang was no intellect, there was no way she could have written this poem and Ex general Mo Yan was already too old for his highness, so the only person who seemed capable of writing this poem was Mo Xifeng but ——
' That stoic face Xifeng, really wrote such a cheesy and cringe poem for his Highness?' This was something that Li Wan could not wrap his head around. After all that woman always looked at everyone like she was waiting for them to make a mistake and then she will be able to take offence with them and snap their head into two.
A woman like that really compared his highness to the moon and even confessed that she loved him for what he was? Li Wan raised his head and looked at the proud prince who was smirking in delight and pursed his lips.
He didn't know that someone like Mo Xifeng would have such a heavy taste when it comes to choosing a spouse for herself.
----------------------
" What are you looking at? Do you think that Miss Xifeng would not like me?" Qi Hong asked when he noticed the way his butler was looking at him, his eyes narrowed subtly while he glared at Li Wan who shook his head at once and replied,
" Of course not your majesty, you are so good-looking. I am just thinking why it took so long for Mi Xifeng to confess to you." There was no way Li Wan was going to say what was in his mind, in fact, he still could not believe that Mo Xifeng was the one who wrote this cheesy poem and if not for the fact that there was no other decent option, he would have never believed it either.
"As I said, it must have been because she was shy," Qi Hong sighed helplessly as if he was imagining the struggle Mo Xifeng through while writing this poem for him. " So romantic, so wonderful…this was what I want in a woman." He turned to look at Li Wan and then said, " Ask her what she wants as a reward, most probably she would ask you about my response or maybe she will ask me at a candle light dinner."
As he finished speaking Qi hong finished speaking, he covered his face with his hands while blushing furiously. He had always imagined being taken to a candlelight dinner with roses and whatnot arranged for him, ever since he was a kid, his parents hardly had any time for him since they were busy trying to keep order in the Main Star while trying their best to keep the Zerg army away from their Main star.
What was more there was also those annoying dungeons with beasts that opened once in a while causing trouble in their land, which was why Qi Hong spent most of his time with books and the stories that were written in them, his nanny who stayed with him when he was young would often tell him how a princess charming would one day come and sweep him off his feet and then shower him with all the love that he could not get when he was young.
Ever since then, Qi Hong has been nothing but obsessed with the idea of getting a romantic ending for himself as well.
He was sure that Mo Xifeng was going to ask him on a date but then when he did not receive and answer from Li Wan for a long time, he turned to look at the latter and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you not telling me what she asked for?"
But then he gasped and covered his blushing cheeks as he said, " Don't tell me, she is asking for my body right away…was it a marriage proposal? Oh, that naughty girl."
Li Wan was afraid that if he did not speak up soon, his master will go ahead and even have imaginary, silver hair kids running in the greenhouse by the time he spoke, which was why he immediately opened his mouth with an annoyed expression as he ruthlessly broke the fantasy of his master, " She is asking for a hundred oak tree seeds and maple seeds, your highness. Please rein in your horses a little."
He was just a butler why does he have to listen to such things?
Qi Hong who was even imagining the clothes that he was going to wear for the date was jolted awake as he turned to look at Li Wan. He raised his hand and then said, " Time out." And then poked his pinky finger before he started twisting his finger inside his ear and then wrenched it out and said, " Repeat what you said."
" She is asking for a hundred oak and hundred maple tree seeds, your highness." Li Wan knew that his master was having a hard time believing that instead of asking him on a date, Miss Mo Xifeng was asking him. For seeds. The difference between reality and fantasy was like heaven and hell.
Qi Hong stayed silent for a long time before he cupped his cheeks and gushed again, " Oh I see, she wants to prepare a greenhouse for me since she knows that I like the solitude between trees and flowers. This is so chivalrous, I expect nothing less than from a woman who was rumoured to become the youngest mecha morph!"
Li Wan, who was being used as a muscle wall for the miniature hearts to bounce around waved his hands to the side and asked blankly, " So are we going to send the seeds, your Highness?"
" Of course, we are," Qi Hong was the most doted among the imperial family members, his family might not have time to spend with him but they often gave him what he liked and he had several seeds that he could gift as he pleased, though they were rare, he will not hold back from showing his intentions to the woman who was pursuing him!
" Send her the seeds and even send her some corn kernels that we got as a gift from the Red Star!" Qi Hong was rather generous given that he thought that the woman who was pursuing him was Mo Xifeng. " We cannot let her chivalrous intentions go to waste."
Li Wan was not surprised by Qi Hong's generous actions but he still pursed his lips and said, " But your highness, Miss Mo Xifeng is the daughter of a traitor, if her majesty finds out then…"
" You fool," Qi Hong's voice suddenly became stern as he turned to look at his butler and said, " Do you think that Imperial mother is an idiot who will be fooled by the likes of the Wei family? She only sent General Mo Yan away because she knew that it was the only way to save the life of her family or else the Wei family would have killed them all."
" And in case what you are saying does happen, then don't you think it will be even more romantic?" The seriousness in his voice dropped as he pressed his hands on his chest and then with a longing expression said, " A traitor's daughter and the Imperial prince, our love story will go down in history, like Rosetta and James."
Li Wan stared at his love-blind prince and then said with a blank voice, " It was a tragic love story of two teenagers, your Highness."
" Oh hush, let me dream a little."
