Incurable Chapter 68 She Has Talent (2)

The Whole World Once everything was ready, Liu Anzhi changed costumes. Even dressed in coarse cloth with her hair braided, the little girl still somehow looked fresh and ethereal. She listened carefully to her mother’s instructions. The moment the director called action, her expression immediately changed. Tears instantly gathered in her eyes. The sight of such a tiny child looking on the verge of tears made everyone around them suck in a breath. Even Mu Wan froze for a moment. “Mother~” Liu Anzhi called. Mu Wan came back to herself and immediately entered character. Mother and daughter completed the entire scene in a single take. The instant they finished, the director called cut. Liu Anzhi immediately transformed from the obedient, sensible little girl in the scene back into a child who loved acting spoiled. Tears still clung to her eyelashes. Yet she was already smiling. Her eyes were crystal clear inside their reddened rims. She stretched out both arms. “Mommy, carry me.” It was he...

Incurable Chapter 57 A Heart Big Enough for Both (1)

The Red Bridal Robe It was the weekend, and Liu Qianxiu did not have to work. The Liu residence rarely had its master home, so after Mu Wan and Liu Qianxiu stayed there overnight, the entire estate seemed to come alive the following morning. Whenever Liu Qianxiu had a day off, Mu Wan gave herself one too. That morning, Liu Qianxiu went to do his morning cultivation. By the time he returned to their room, Mu Wan had only just rolled over and awakened. People were always especially sensitive and tender in the morning. When they held each other and lingered in bed, the affection and sweetness between them seemed to double. In the end, Liu Qianxiu lifted Mu Wan from the bed. After she put on her shoes and changed clothes, he took her hand and led her to breakfast. The Liu residence was built in the style of an ancient Chinese garden. Apart from the three-story detached pavilion where they stayed, most of the buildings were either two stories or single-story structures. Covered corridors co...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 610

~ WINTER IS HERE. TIME TO START LOOKING FOR A WIFE ~ Mu Yunyao carefully split each embroidery thread, meticulously stitching the phoenix’s eyes onto the wedding dress. Yue Wang watched from the side, his eyes shining brightly. “Yao’er, did you always put this much effort into embroidery?” He had never realized that a single small eye could demand so much time. Mu Yunyao lifted her eyes at his words and smiled softly. “The phoenix pattern on the wedding dress isn’t particularly special, so it doesn’t require much effort. The embroidered screen with the magnificent landscape pattern that I sent to the Palace through the Su family was the real dedication. To finish it in time, my wrists and neck ached so badly I dared not move a muscle. The fingers holding the needle swelled beyond recognition, and it took ages for them to recover.” Yue Wang couldn’t help but recall those events, feeling that he and Yunyao were truly destined for each other: “When the Su family angered His Majesty ove...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 609

~ ONCE YOU’VE GOT A WIFE, YOU FORGET YOUR FATHER. ~ Mu Yunyao snapped back to her senses, silently suppressing her wandering thoughts. “Grandmother, Imperial Concubine Qi and Imperial Concubine Li entered the Palace in the same year, conceived in the same year, and were both elevated to the rank of Consort in the same year. Yet Imperial Concubine Qi seems far less conspicuous in the harem than Imperial Concubine Li.” Grand Princess Yi De smiled. “Imperial Concubine Qi is the youngest daughter of the Marquis Wei, and also his only daughter. She was cherished from childhood, yet her character is remarkably clear-sighted, free from the common flaws of other young ladies. Though born a woman, she is fond of military strategy and excels in martial arts. Don’t be fooled by her delicate appearance. She can dispatch four or five men in mere moments. Once, she even used her martial skills to help the Emperor fend off an assassin. Though the Emperor never speaks of it, he remembers this debt of...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 608

~ THE MOST CRUCIAL THING ABOUT PLAYING THE INNOCENT ACT IS YOUR FACE ~ The two glared at each other for a long moment before their gazes gradually softened. In unison, they said, “Don’t tell Yunyao what I just said.” They studied each other once more, now finally beginning to accept one another. Mu Yunyao watched this scene unfold from afar, a faint smile curving her lips. Jin Lan exhaled in relief. “I truly feared Miss Su and the Poisonous Lady might come to blows. Are you not worried, Miss?” “Su You appears simple-minded, but after enduring the agony of being betrayed by her own kin, she rarely trusts others. As for Poisonous Lady, it goes without saying that if she could trust someone so easily, she wouldn’t still be wandering the martial world alone. Neither is the type to accept someone as a friend readily. Yet, for my sake, they both chose to put on a facade. It’s quite a bittersweet situation, really.“ ”Then why did you feel comfortable letting them be alone together?“ ”...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 607

~ AWKWARDNESS AND ARROGANCE ~ Upon hearing Mu Yunyao still address her as sister, Su You finally couldn’t hold back: “You said you’d visit often. I waited for you for so long, but you never came back to my house. Later, I couldn’t stand it anymore and sent an invitation to meet you at Qinfang Garden, only to be told you’d moved into the Palace. Hmph.” Mu Yunyao motioned for Jin Lan to bring over the pastries she had prepared earlier. She picked one up and offered it to Su You’s lips. “I knew you were coming, so I made these myself. Try one. Do they still suit your taste?” Su You’s eyes lit up. “You made these just for me?” Mu Yunyao nodded. “Yes. I know your health isn’t the best, and you can’t have overly sweet things, so I deliberately used less sugar.” Su You promptly picked up an exquisitely crafted rose-shaped pastry and popped it into her mouth. The delicacy was the perfect size for a single bite. She ate three in succession before pausing, nodding with satisfaction. ”Your skills...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 606

~ THE PUNISHMENT WAS TOO LENIENT ~ Upon hearing that the Emperor had yet to deal with Imperial Concubine Li, Mu Yunyao nodded. “Right. I’ll go pay my respects to my grandmother first, then come back to see you later.” “I want to eat those Qiaomo, the kind you steamed for Yue Wang last time.” Seeing her about to leave, the Poisonous Lady hurriedly spoke up. Mu Yunyao turned and glared at her. “I gave you a small steamer basket last time. It’s only been a few days. Haven’t you had enough yet?” “Not enough! The one I ate was shaped like a puppy, and I didn’t like it. I want one shaped like a fox.” “Oh, very well. Ta Xue likes them too. I’ll send her over to you later. You two can eat together, she’ll be absolutely delighted.” The Poisonous Lady choked, glaring resentfully at Mu Yunyao. “Hurry up and leave!” This woman knew exactly how to hit her weak spot. Hmph, once she built up her courage, she might not be afraid anymore .... Hmm, maybe .... Mu Yunyao smiled as she exited the side hal...

Incurable Chapter 56 The Engagement Banquet (2)

I’ll Protect You for a Lifetime It began raining that afternoon. The autumn rain continued steadily until after dark. After dinner, Mu Wan opened all the windows. She sat on the carpet beside the low table. The autumn breeze entered the room, carrying coolness and the damp fragrance of rain. Liu Qianxiu sat upright on the other side of the table. Beneath the soft lamp, he wore a linen-colored shirt. With the misty rain outside, he looked like a cultivator sitting alone on some distant mountain peak. Detached from the world. Almost ethereal. Mu Wan could be distracted by his appearance and temperament anywhere, at any time. Without realizing it, she lay across the low table and began staring at him again. When Liu Qianxiu eventually met her gaze, her eyes were bright. The corners of her lips were slightly raised. She looked happy and completely content. He put down his book. “What is it?” Mu Wan smiled. She sat upright and propped her chin between both hands. “I was thinking that whethe...

Incurable Chapter 56 The Engagement Banquet (1)

The Engagement Is Next Week Old Madam Mei's classmates stayed at the Mei residence for a day before leaving for another city. Mu Wan finished filming early and went to the hospital to find Liu Qianxiu. When he got off work, the two drove to the Mei residence together. The Mei household was as warm and harmonious as ever. The moment Mu Wan entered, Old Madam Mei called her over, and Mu Wan was more than happy to keep the elderly woman company. Once everyone had arrived, the housekeeper came to announce dinner, and the whole family moved to the dining room. There were many dishes on the table, but all of them were light. The dishes placed nearest Mu Wan were all her favorites. As Mrs. Mei sat down, she smiled and said to Mu Wan, “Your grandmother gave the kitchen instructions early this morning. She said Wanwan's food has to be both delicious and nutritious.” It was all genuine concern. Mu Wan felt deeply touched. She smiled at Old Madam Mei. “Thank you, Grandma.” “What are you t...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 605

~ TO WHAT EXTENT CAN IT BE CURED? ~ Yue Wang closed the book in his hands. “Yao’er, in my opinion, the Li family must have discovered issues with Qiming’s identity. But he shouldn’t be in immediate danger—they likely intend to use Yi Bao Xuan to divert suspicion and even criminal charges away from their iron trade.” “Such grave charges would crush Yi Bao Xuan.” No matter how renowned, it was ultimately just a merchant establishment. “But what about Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Lou? What about you and me? What about the Grand Princess Yi Dde herself?” Mu Yunyao shuddered violently, waves of regret washing over her in an instant: “It’s all my fault. Things have gone too smoothly all along. I only thought of Qi Ming as the most suitable candidate to infiltrate Ling Wang’s inner circle for intelligence, forgetting entirely to consider the Li family’s presence. Li Qingzhou has stood unshaken in the court for years. He’s no ordinary man. Others might not uncover it, but he could see through th...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 604

~ EXPOSED ~ Yue Wang pondered deeply: “That is indeed a solution, but would Ling Wang and the Li family believe that Jin Wang still harbors ambitions? After all, his current state...” Mu Yunyao blinked: “Jin Wang’s legs and eyes aren’t beyond cure. I’ll have the Poisonous Lady find a trustworthy person to infiltrate his inner circle and assist with his leg and eye treatments. As long as there’s hope for recovery, given Jin Wang’s temperament and character, he won’t accept defeat so easily. Even if he doesn’t compete for the throne, he’ll find ways to exact revenge.” Yue Wang pondered for a long moment before nodding in agreement. “Very well, so be it. But Yao’er, this task may seem simple, yet its execution is exceedingly tricky. Neither Jin Wang, the Li family, nor Ling Wang is an ordinary man. The slightest misstep could alert them to something amiss, and it might well backfire. Therefore, utmost caution is required. The selection of personnel must be calculated. Anyone with even a s...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 603

~ BETTER TO TAKE THE RISK AND GO FOR IT ~ The Emperor sighed and shook his head upon hearing this: “It is Imperial Father’s fault. I have always been unable to face you, so over the years I have shown you little concern. Later, I even exiled you to Western Guangdong. Junyue, it is only natural that you harbor resentment toward Imperial Father.” He owed this child too much, and now that he wished to make amends, time was running out. The very thought filled him with unbearable anguish. “Imperial Father, when I was young, I couldn’t understand many things. But now that I’ve come of age, I see matters more clearly. To outsiders, Imperial Mother’s death was disgraceful. From the moment I was born, I bore the weight of that sin. Had you raised me by your side, the families of the princes who were murdered would never have spared me. Though life in the Cold Palace was lonely, it preserved my life. When I fell gravely ill at twelve, you intended to bring me out of the Cold Palace. Yet at that...
