Chapter 52 - Returning Home
After breakfast, Xie Lisa went to the inner room to take a bath. The bath barrel was placed behind a curled screen that was embedded flower and bird pattern.
The screen wasn't big, barely block her figure.
She took off her clothes and sat in the water , scrubing herself from hair to toe.
She didn't dare to bath too slowly, because they would return her home later. After washing herself quickly, she stood up and looked to the side. She found that she had forgotten to bring her clothes with her.
She had to sit back down and called Tan Mei. "Take my clothes."
Tan Mei was standing outside, hearing this she hurriedly responded and then turned around to get her clothes.
Jeon Jungkook had already packed everything up. He was sitting on the rose chair of the fragrant rosewood outside, lowered his head, expressionless as he waited for the others.
Tan Mei was in a hurry with a little of rashness. After finding Xie Lisa's clothes, she quickly ran over, wantting to give them to her.
She stumbled over her left foot on her right foot and staggered a few steps, dropping Xie Lisa's orange bellyband to the ground.
A gust of wind blew, and the bellyband just happened to float to Jeon Jungkook's feet.
At first he didn't know what it was. He bent down and picked it up.
His mind was in turmoil. When he thought about Xie Lisa was taking a bath, he felt a surge of Qi and blood rushing up his chest, straight into the top of his skull.
He covered his mouth and coughed lightly, then handed bellyband to Tan Mei, "Quick, send it in."
Tan Mei suddenly came to a realization and said: "This servant is lacking in manners."
She quickly walked into the inner room.
Finally, Xie Lisa thought that the bellyband was dirty, she had Tan Mei take another one from the cabinet.
Of course, she didn't know that Jeon Jungkook had touched it. She didn't have the time to reprimand Tan Mei, changed clothes and combed her hair into a bun, and hurriedly got on the carriage back to Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
It was probably the result of the bath, but there was a mist of moisture about Xie Lisa that made him feel cool sitting next to her.
As she hurried off, she sat in the carriage and put on her body perfume. It was the fragrance of the lotus she used the most. She lightly touched it to her neck and wrist, and it gave off a delicate fragrance.
Not long later, the entire carriage was filled with the fragrance.
She did not shy away from Jeon Jungkook; she sat beside him as if she could not see him.
Other than them, there were also Shuang Yan and Shuang Yan in the carriage. The carriage was very quiet on the way, and no one said a word.
Jeon Jungkook pretended to ask casually, "What fragrance?"
She covered it with a porcelain stopper and concisely said, "Lotus body perfume."
As she mentioned it, he remembered the handkerchief the Crown Prince had picked up.
It was precisely because of this fragrance that Jeon Jimin was unable to forget her. He frowned in displeasure, "Don't use this fragrance any more."
Xie Lisa looked up at him and it was obvious from the look in her eyes that she was saying, What's it got to do with you?
