I’ll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law
chapter-441

Xie Xuanchen just smiled lightly when he heard the final number of people he was granted. Mu Mingtang was so angry that she had completely given up trying to put up a facade. She directly scolded the Emperor in broad daylight.

“You are just trying to gain fame, you despicable person! You actually want others to trade their life for their family’s life— how shameless!” Mu Mingtang was so angry that she got dizzy. Xie Xuanchen quickly helped support her frame, “Speak slowly, don’t get angry. “

Mu Mingtang covered her eyebrows and calmed down. Finally recovered, she said angrily, “How can there be such a shameless person in the world like this? Let alone a supposedly respected Emperor.”

Xie Xuanchen didn’t take it seriously when he heard this, “It’s precisely because he is the Emperor that he is able to act this shamelessly,” After he finished speaking, he laughed when he saw that Mu Mingtang was still aggrieved. He pinched Mu Mingtang’s face with both hands. He liked the feeling so much that he squished them and kissed her hard to quench his thirst, “I don’t feel like I’m being plotted against and no one in the world can take advantage of me. Have some confidence in your husband— I’ll be fine.”

In the past, she heard about those battles in which a small number of people defeated an exceptionally large one. Now that it was his turn, Mu Mingtang felt frightened and wished that these legends would not apply to Xie Xuanchen. When Xie Xuanchen saw her sunken expression, he deliberately diverted her attention as he played with her fingers and said, “Don’t think about the irrelevant people outside your life. As of now, you might as well think about what you want to bring. I will go to organise the army tomorrow and we will leave in the afternoon.”

Mu Mingtang also knew that it was useless to think too much about a decision she couldn’t change, so she sighed softly, “There is nothing much worth bringing. The dowry was prepared by the Jiang family and is not mine, so don’t worry. I don’t need that much space for anything else either. I’ll make sure that I won’t burden you by coming along.”

Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said, “I took you with me in regards to your safety, not to make you feel wronged. Your lifestyle and items shouldn’t change just because we’re going somewhere different. If a woman suffers, the man has failed in fulfilling his responsibilities.”

“I’m not suffering.”

“Then I’m the one suffering.” Xie Xuanchen said, “Not to mention, after being raised in the capital for several years, I’m used to being spoiled. If the standard of food, clothing, housing and transportation drops in the future, I’m afraid I won’t be able to adapt to it.”

Mu Mingtang knew clearly that Xie Xuanchen was saying this deliberately to ease her heart, but she was still persuaded. She was not only packing her own travel equipment, but also Xie Xuanchen’s.

Thinking about it this way, Mu Mingtang really thought of many things to pay attention to. She couldn’t sit still and was about to go out to clean up immediately, but Xie Xuanchen held her back, “What’s the rush?”

Mu Mingtang was caught off guard and grabbed by him, falling directly back onto his lap. Mu Mingtang looked at him with a surprised look, “Didn’t you ask me to pack my luggage?”

Xie Xuanchen choked on his own words and hugged Mu Mingtang shamelessly, “We both have servants to pack our things, so let’s do other stuff.”

Mu Mingtang’s eyes widened when she heard this and she looked at him with a look, as if she was accusing him of being a cowardly official, “You’re going to lead the troops to go on an expedition tomorrow, how could you still think about such a thing today?”

Xie Xuanchen looked back very calmly and even felt that the question she asked was very strange, “Sexual intercourse is a human desire. Don’t you eat and drink during a war? Since eating and sleeping cannot be cut off, the same reasoning applies for this kind of thing.”

Mu Mingtang held it in for a long time before she inevitably cursed, “Wow, what nonsense.”

“You have to follow my principles here,” Xie Xuanchen hugged Mu Mingtang and said, “Let’s go inside to communicate further.”
