I’ll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law

With that high and mighty look on him, he slowly walked towards him, the same as before.

Mu Mingtang sat down with Xie Xuanchen, she secretly cursed at them, what is wrong with this couple? Yesterday, Jiang Mingwei stared right at Xie Xuanchen, and today, it was Xie Xuanji’s turn. Based on Xie Xuanchen’s looks, he couldn’t have been ugly before.

What are these people looking at?

Jiang Mingwei was shocked yesterday, but today, she was much more calm upon seeing Xie Xuanchen. After Xie Xuanchen sat down, Jiang Mingwei smiled and greeted: “How unlucky of us today. First, we disturbed my sister-in-law from having her breakfast, and now we disturbed your sleep. It really is my fault, please forgive me.”

Xie Xuanchen immediately noticed an important point from Jiang Mingwei’s words: “You haven’t eaten yet?”

Mu Mingtang hurriedly said: “Of course not, I’ve already eaten my share when Prince Jin and Princess Jin came. I didn’t want to wake you up in the morning, so I ate by myself first, but your meal is already prepared. How about, I accompany you to have your meal now?”

Xie Xuanchen nodded seriously: “Okay.”

Mu Mingtang glanced at Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei, she was really embarrassed to throw these two people aside, so she could only say politely: “Have the both of you had your breakfast yet? Do you guys want to join us?”

Jiang Mingwei immediately wanted to refuse. Who are you kidding? There are still many things waiting for her to do in the Jin Manor. She has no time to eat breakfast with these people. However, Xie Xuanji woke up from his daze, smiled immediately, nodded and said: “Since you asked, we’re more than delighted.”

Jiang Mingwei choked for a moment as she was about to refuse her offer. She glanced at Xie Xuanji, clearly embarrassed. However, Xie Xuanji didn’t think that Jiang Mingwei’s matters were that important. It was nothing more than taking care of the furniture. How much could she have on hand, is it more important than his reputation outside of the imperial court? Therefore, Xie Xuanji glanced at Jiang Mingwei with an implicit warning. Jiang Mingwei could only bear with it and accompany Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen to the dining room.

After a while, the maids had already added two more chairs to the dinner table. Xiang Nanchun led the maids and placed the dishes on the table for the second time. Mu Mingtang poured a cup of tea and tested the temperature by hand before handing it to Xie Xuanchen.

They didn’t hinder from the gaze of the people beside them, as if it was a normal thing to do. Xie Xuanji was taken aback when he saw this.

In Xie Xuanji’s impression, Mu Mingtang was dull and boring, stiff like a puppet. After Mu Mingtang got engaged to him, the two of them had met once or twice under the care of their elders. But at that time, Mu Mingtang always lowered her head, furrowed her eyebrows, refused to take one more step forward, and refused to say a word, as if she was locked up in a tall tower and had never seen a man before in her life.

Although docile, she wasn’t as lovely.

If it wasn’t for Mu Mingtang’s sudden outrage, Xie Xuanji thought that Mu Mingtang was just a puppet without will. Mu Mingtang ridiculed him in the study room that day. After marrying into the Qiyang Manor, she still rudely mocked him. Xie Xuanji was surprised that she could pretend that long, and he was even more uninterested with her for her barbaric attitude.

Earlier, she was still proper and gentle, just slightly stiff, but now, her actions were extremely rough, she didn’t have the gentle and elegant temperament of a noble woman. Xie Xuanchen thought that Mu Mingtang was just a barbaric woman from the common folk that would embarrass anyone she appeared with.

However, she was so meticulous by Xie Xuanchen’s side, she even paid attention to the temperature of his tea. Also, just now, when she heard that Xie Xuanchen had woken up, she ran right back to the room to take care of him, it felt like she only had her eyes for him.

As a man and also someone who used to be Mu Mingtang’s fiancé, he didn’t feel so good about this. Why didn’t Mu Mingtang show any affection towards him, but was completely different towards Xie Xuanchen? Of course, he knows that he doesn’t like Mu Mingtang, but the possessiveness of a man worked that way, he can not have any feelings for her, but Mu Mingtang was treating them differently, she treated him coldly, and was gentle and considerate to another man, Xie Xuanji wasn’t happy about this at all.

Especially when that person was his brother.
