A simple yet beautiful hairstyle was completed.

The maids behind her heaved a sigh of relief and quickly prepared the makeup tools.

Looking at the white-looking powder in their hands, Xia Muqing was shocked and horrified.

“You want to smear this on my face?”

The maids didn’t find anything wrong and replied, “First Young Mistress, this is the most popular powder in the country.”

Xia Muqing shook her head repeatedly and rejected them. She picked out an eyebrow pencil and rouge from among their various makeup tools and prepared to put on her own makeup.

“First Young Mistress, you can’t do that. Let us do your makeup.”

Xia Muqing didn’t listen to them.

Nonsense! She didn’t dare to put that kind of thing on her face.

Moreover, how could white powder be pretty when placed on a face?

She drew a few simple strokes on the center of the eyebrows and adjusted its shape. Then, she brushed her eyebrows and pressed her lips with rouge.

The rouge that was the rage in this era were all bright red in color. Xia Muqing didn’t dare to apply too much and just used a little bit.

The servants didn’t agree with her initially, but after the makeup was done, they were stunned.

The country was influenced by foreign exoticness and the ladies loved heavy makeup. It was rare to see such light makeup.

However, this kind of makeup seemed to be more suitable for ladies with oriental beauty. After all, their facial features weren’t as distinct as that of the foreigners.

Xia Muqing glanced at the mirror and nodded in satisfaction. She chose a light purple dress in her wardrobe that swirled around her. This time, the servants didn’t stop her. It seemed that the young mistress was better than all of them.

When Xia Muqing was ready, Xia Jingtian, Ruan Yu, and Xia Churan were already sitting in the main hall, waiting for King Zhennan.

Seeing that Xia Muqing didn’t appear after a long time, Xia Jingtian asked with a darkened expression, “Did you inform that lass that King Zhennan is coming?”

With an aggrieved expression, Ruan Yu said, “Master, I went to Muqing’s room early in the morning, but she insisted on not getting up. I had no choice.”

Xia Jingtian’s expression turned ugly. “Then can’t you think of another way? How useless.”

Ruan Yu’s expression flickered with anger and hatred. What could she do? Besides, that girl was already a grown up. Did she really need to keep an eye on her?

However, she would never dare to tell Xia Jingtian that.

At this moment, the servants informed them that King Zhennan had arrived. Xia Jingtian smiled and welcomed them as he instructed the servants to rush Xia Muqing.

At this moment, Xia Muqing had already left her room and bumped into Ye Qingxuan on the way.

Ye Qingxuan’s eyes lit up when he saw Xia Muqing. He praised her, “Qing’er is getting prettier by the day.”

Xia Muqing’s expression remained stoic. On the other hand, Xia Jingtian and the others who stood beside him, had odd expressions when they heard his praise.

Xia Jingtian played along smoothly, “Your Highness, you’re really compatible with my daughter.”

Ye Qingxuan walked to Xia Muqing and said, “Qing’er and I are naturally a match made in heaven.”

His actions and words were so intimate that Ruan Yu and her daughter almost broke their teeth.

They looked at each other and remembered their plan for the day. They then calmed down.

Xia Muqing distanced herself from Ye Qingxuan casually. “King Zhennan, you’re so busy and you still have time to visit us. Is there something important?”

What she meant was that he shouldn’t visit for no reason.

Xia Jingtian immediately reprimanded her. “Muqing, what are you saying?”

“King Zhennan, don’t mind her. This girl has been spoiled by me. She has been talking about you and waiting for you to arrive.” He carefully tried to please Ye Qingxuan.

Ye Qingxuan wasn’t angry. It would be weird if this girl was nice to him.

Hearing Xia Jingtian’s words, he raised her eyebrows and said, “Is that so? I had no idea that Qing’er misses me so much.”
