35. She reminded him of his granddaughter

At the same time.

In front of Mo Ting Xiao's private study.

All the maids slowly walked away after Mo Jia stormed off.

Now it was only Lu Chang Chang, Mo Ting Xiao and Li Sing Tan.

There was only silence. None of them had spoken a word since Mo Jia left.

Lu Chang Chang was just worriedly looking towards the direction the maids had taken Chu Chu. She only hoped that there was nothing serious with her….

She was so engrossed in her worry that she didn't realize that she was zoning out and two people were looking at her.

Seeing that she was zoning out because of the quietness, Mo Ting Xiao decided to break the silence.

" Chang Chang??..", he called out to her softly and placed his hand on her shoulder.

Lu Chang Chang was slightly startled and turned to face him." Huh??.", she asked with a confused face.

" Will you join me in my study??... I want to show something to you…", he said while looking at her with delicate eyes.

Li Sing Tan – "...."

Li Sing Tan was not at all surprised by Mo Ting Xiao's question. Not one freaking bit!! He himself had to wait for years to be able to gain access into his study, that too after repeated requests.

But she was here for less than a month, and he was already personally inviting her in??!!. It hurt his pride a bit… No. A lot!!

( Author : Sorry buddy… This is the power of love…. It is not in my hands…. Well not exactly because this is my book… But still…. How can I keep poor Ting Xiao's heart , that is desperate to meet Chang Chang, away??... I am not that cruel…. Or am I??? }:-) Hehehe… )

" Um… I am sorry, but can I come after a while??... I just want to make sure Chu Chu is alright.. So I was planning to go her quarters now…", she replied with a slightly agitated face.

She knew that there was no way she would pay any attention to what Mo Ting Xiao will be showing her when she was thinking about Chu Chu's health.

" It is alright… I'll be waiting…", he replied with an understanding smile.

Lu Chang Chang smiled gratefully. She turned and quickly walked towards the servants quarters.

Mo Ting Xiao sighed. He didn't know why he was always so nervous when he had to speak to her. He was supposed to be the hot headed second prince, but in front of her, he would feel like he was facing trail for murder.

" Get in", Mo Ting Xiao said emotionlessly to Li Sing Tan. He then opened the door to his study and walked in followed by Li Sing Tan.

Lu Chang Chang was rushing towards the servants quarters.

After reaching, she didn't know which room to go into. She started hearing a few noises from one of the farthest rooms and decided to go and check it out.

She saw the door was open and walked in.

Chu Chu was laying on the bed. The physician had just stood up after examining her. The other maids were standing around them. Liu Chen was standing behind the physician and asking him an endless series of questions.

When they saw Lu Chang Chang, they immediately bowed." Your Highness", they all curtsied. Chu Chu was about to get up to wish her but before she could, Lu Chang Chang reprimanded her.

" It's okay… Take rest..", Lu Chang Chang said in a affirmative tone." How is her health sir?? And please stand straight…", she asked the physician.

The physician was a old man in his late sixties. He along with all the servants there were shocked by the way she addressed him with respect.

The old man felt his eyes moisten while straightening himself and looking at her face for the first time.. Even though he was a respected imperial physician, there was never a single instance where he was given this much respect.

He looked at her delicate face and petal like eyes that were filled with worry and concern. He felt like he was looking at his late granddaughter who died in a attack.

He took a deep breath to calm his rising emotions before speaking.

" Miss Chu Chu is doing okay. There are no mortal wounds, but she will need three days of thorough bed rest to recover completely, Royal Consort.", the man replied.

" Hmm… Thank you for taking your time and coming here.. Please have a safe journey back home..", Lu Chang Chang replied with a gentle smile.

" Thank you Your Highness…", the man bowed and walked out with teary eyes. It was taking him a lot of strength for stopping his years from falling down.
