Chapter 156: Waiting for His Little Fairy Demanded Infinite Patience
"He is so noble and peerless, possessing an ethereal countenance akin to an immortal untouched by the mortal world. Yet from head to toe, he radiates an endless majesty. One mere glance at him strikes the heart with profound reverence, banishing even the faintest thought of transgression."
"His majesty requires no wrath; nobility is simply in his blood!"
Deep within Qian Yueshuang's heart, boundless adoration for Nalan Dijiu had already taken root.
"Hearing Mother describe him this way makes Jin even more impatient to lay eyes on the Ninth Prince."
Prompted by Qian Yueshuang, Baili Jin's heart—already fluttering with romantic anticipation—was stirred into turbulent waves.
She simply could not hold back any longer!
She did not want to waste a single second more; she only wished to appear before the Ninth Prince right this instant and gaze upon him up close!
He was the man held closest to the hearts of countless women across the entire realm!
And only she, Baili Jin, possessed the fortune to be with such a man in this lifetime!
"You clumsy creatures, move faster!"
At this thought, Baili Jin could no longer contain her irritation, chiding the maids who were tending to her.
"Each and every one of you is slow-witted, with hands and feet as sluggish as lead. Once I am wedded to the Ninth Prince in the days to come, I shall replace every last one of you! No doubt the maids trained in the Ninth Prince's household are a thousand times smarter and more nimble than you lot!"
Faced with Baili Jin's scolding and delusions, the maids dared not even draw a full breath, frantically accelerating their movements.
At last, amidst the eager anticipation of the mother and daughter duo, Qian Yueshuang and Baili Jin, the maids exerted all their skill to finish dressing and styling her.
At this very moment, Baili Jin was clad in a vibrant red gown, complemented by exquisite makeup and jewelry, rendering her as radiant and fresh as a blooming flower.
From head to toe, her entire being exuded an aura of joyous celebration.
Uncontainable waves of delight radiated from her person.
"Let us go, Mother, let us hurry. We must not keep the Ninth Prince waiting too long, lest he grow impatient."
Baili Jin took hurried steps while urging Qian Yueshuang along.
"With you being so considerate of the Ninth Prince, he is bound to cherish you all the more."
Qian Yueshuang was practically consumed with envy for her own daughter.
"The Ninth Prince is the object of adoration for countless women under the heavens. Since I am fortunate enough to win his affection, it is only natural that I show him utmost consideration and put his feelings first in all things."
Baili Jin assumed the air of a considerate and virtuous woman.
"Yet there is no need for you to worry that the Ninth Prince might grow angry, Jin. The timing of this wait is absolute perfection. Not only will he not grow overly impatient or angry, but it will also kindle a fervent desire within him to see you. Calculated every which way, there is not a single flaw. Let us go."
Qian Yueshuang calculated everything down to the finest detail, feeling utterly pleased with how things stood.
Everything was in readiness, waiting only for her precious daughter, Baili Jin, to make her grand entrance!
Nalan Dijiu sat quietly within the main hall. Ordinarily, given his temper, being made to wait so long for someone would have driven him into a towering rage.
Yet this time was different.
As long as it concerned his little celestial maiden, he possessed infinite patience. Just as he could patiently wait for his little celestial maiden to grow up and grow stronger, what was a mere wait in this hall right now that he could not endure?
