Chapter 136 A narrow victory
After the fifth game, Shen Yueyao raised her eyebrows proudly, chuckled, and looked at her with curved eyes.
"Princess, I appreciate your giving in."
Her expectant gaze fell on the fair and delicate skin on the other's chest. Her long black eyelashes trembled quickly, and in an instant, an indescribable lively charm was revealed.
Mingxuan's cherry lips were slightly pouted, and the expression between her brows showed both arrogance and unwillingness. She muttered softly.
"If I had known this, I should have worn more clothes!"
Shen Yueyao decided to stop while she was ahead and did not intend to embarrass her any further, so she spoke in a gentle tone.
"Princess... you see, the outcome is already decided. There seems to be no need for us to continue, right?"
Ming Xuan stared at her with her big eyes, glanced at the snow-white middle-length coat she was wearing, and then snorted coldly.
"Humph! Don't I still have a skirt? Besides, don't you have very few clothes left? Someone, pick up all the clothes on the floor!"
Shen Yueyao frowned slightly and asked softly.
"Princess, what does this mean?"
Mingxuan replied with a provocative and cunning smile.
"Since you lost the bet, you should accept the loss! The loser keeps the clothes, and if I lose, the clothes will belong to you."
Shen Yueyao asked with a puzzled look on her face: "What do you want my clothes for?"
Mingxuan winked mischievously: "It's useless, it's just fun."
"..."
She smiled and continued, "But if you lose all your clothes later, I can't just watch you walk out naked, right? That would be so embarrassing!"
Embarrassed?!
She even knows how to be embarrassed!
Shen Yueyao nodded in understanding, knowing that Mingxuan was teasing her on purpose. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and her eyebrows flashed slightly.
"Still coming? If you lose again, you'll really have nothing left. I advise the princess to stop now since she still has a little skirt left."
"I am not afraid. I will bet this little skirt of mine against all the clothes you have on."
Shen Yueyao originally wanted to stop at that point, but seeing how arrogant she was, she also got angry.
The corner of her mouth was raised, and her slender white fingertips gently supported her delicate jaw, watching her next move with interest.
"Princess, you should take off your clothes first."
Mingxuan didn't waste any time. She simply raised her hand and pulled open the silk ribbon on the side, and the pure white color slid down.
Shen Yueyao widened her eyes. She, she, she actually dared to take it off!
What a ruthless person!
She blinked quickly a few times. This, this is a thrilling scene!
It's so... so exciting.
If there was a man present, he would not be able to bear it and would immediately pounce on her and tear her apart.
Mingxuan rolled her eyes at her seeing that she looked naive.
Shen Yueyao finally withdrew her gaze from her dazzlingly white skin and looked at the chessboard, coughing lightly twice.
"Otherwise...Princess, you should put on some clothes, otherwise it will disturb my mind."
Mingxuan glanced at her with disdain and said, "Trouble."
Ordered his personal maid.
"Use her dress to cover it."
The two of them really pulled up Shen Yueyao's coat to shield her in front of them. Shen Yueyao was also surprised by her action.
For a moment, I didn't know whether I should praise her for keeping her promise or say that she was thick-skinned.
Well... no matter what, Shen Yueyao felt that her mind had been disturbed by her.
I didn't expect to lose this game!
Now it was Mingxuan's turn to stare at her with the same playful eyes.
Shen Yueyao frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to admit defeat. She raised her hand and unbuttoned her shirt.
Mingxuan stared at her aqua green dress, which was carefully embroidered with two moon-white butterflies. She couldn't help but look down at herself, and then she secretly calculated in her heart.
Although there was reluctance in his eyes, he still praised.
"See, I told you that your figure shouldn't be hidden in these layers of gowns."
Shen Yueyao was also a little worried. If she really didn't return the clothes to her and really went out like this, she would think it was no big deal, but... people's words were scary!
She glanced at the dress that she was wearing, not sure if it could cover her body or not, and sighed inwardly, thinking that something was better than nothing.
Mingxuan looked at her expression with appreciation.
"I like to make friends with pretty girls. I'll give you a new set later."
Shen Yueyao glanced at the piece of red gauze on the ground, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable and forced a faint smile.
"thank you."
Jing Ruzhang didn't know what the situation was in Mingqiong Garden. He just heard Jin'er say something without making any sense, and she hesitated and couldn't explain it clearly.
He felt a little anxious and walked much faster than usual. Luo Zhong and Jin'er jogged behind him.
Jin Er was annoyed by his slowness and said hurriedly, "Eunuch Luo, please follow me slowly. I will go after the Emperor."
"Hey, hey, hey, you... you wait for me."
When Jing Ruzhang stepped into Mingqiong Garden, he had a murderous look on his face and his dark eyes were deep and unfathomable. The palace servants in the yard all knelt down.
He paid no attention to anyone else and walked straight into the inner room, only to see Shen Yueyao walking out from behind a semi-transparent embroidered curved screen, her black hair half tied up and half loose, wrapped in a goose yellow cloud gauze, her arms exposed, her slender waist with a hollowed-out part, she was only two months pregnant, her belly was not noticeable, still flat, and her fair skin was faintly visible.
His eyes froze, his heart suddenly moved, the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipated, and he suddenly drooped his eyelashes to hide the momentary panic in his eyes.
Why is she dressed like this?
He took off his coat, put it on her, grabbed her wrist and asked in a deep voice.
"what happened?"
Shen Yueyao gently broke free from his hand and said with a helpless look on her face.
"It's okay, don't worry, Princess Mingxuan said she will return to Beishuo in a few days."
"What about her?"
Shen Yueyao said calmly: "I went to take a bath."
He tilted his head, looking away from her, his tone questioning.
"Shen Yueyao, you, you are so indecent dressed like this!"
Shen Yueyao was still immersed in the thrilling last round of battle. She almost lost. It was a close call!
He raised his hand and waved it absentmindedly.
"Don't worry, she doesn't have any left."
"What did you say?!"
