During dinner, TanTan tries her best to eat as fast as she can but the delicious roast chicken makes her hard to achieve her goal. She just keeps grabbing piece by piece of the chicken. Prince Li in other hand also starts enjoying his food with FangFang but sometimes he glances to see TanTan eating so freely. He recites in the past, a high dignity of HuaMuTan makes her mostly avoided the food like roast chicken which hard to be eaten without making her feels embarrassed in front of others. 'The more I observe her, the more I feel this woman is too different than her old self...she seems...no longer is HuaMuTan? Can she be someone else? Could it be??' Now it occurs a new suspicious theory in Prince Li's mind, that maybe the woman in front of him is really someone else but he feels the theory is ridiculous...why HuaMuTan or maybe Hua Family asks someone to pretend like her? How can they looks so similar? Prince Li thinks the theory he made is too ridiculous, but he has to be sure...he remembers that HuaMuTan has 3 birthmark moles on her left shoulder. Maybe he needs to find a chance to check it later.
While he is thinking, TanTan has finished her meal and stop eating.
"Ahh, I am so full.." she tells,
"Me also YangMu...so full" FangFang touches her belly which bigger than just now, filled by the dinner dishes. TanTan smiles seeing her,
"Well, we should thank Aunt Tong for the yummy food tonight..." As a mother, TanTan feels need to teach FangFang to always be polite and FangFang listens to her,
"Thank you Aunt Tong..."
"That's right, thank you Aunt Tong" TanTan copies FangFang's way to say thankyou.
Aunt Tong who just instructed other servants to pick up the dishes is smiling nervously to FangFang and also to TanTan.
"Its my job...I am glad both of you like it. Now its already late, FangFang XiaoCie have to back to her room to sleep."
Prince Li nods and TanTan also agrees, "Goodnight, FangFang"
FangFang seems hesitated to go,
"Uhm, can't I sleep with YangMu again tonight?"
TanTan smiles to hear the request but then she remembers QingQing must has waited for her,
"I am sorry FangFang...not tonight, YangMu still have a guest..."
FangFang understands it so she doesn't push it, she greets TanTan and Prince lI politely before Aunt Tong accompanies her walk out from the room.
As now only left both Prince Li and TanTan in the room. TanTan feels it is the time for her also to leave,
"Well, I should go too..." she stands and ready to go.
"Wait!" A sudden command makes TanTan stop walks toward outside.
TanTan sighs, 'What else now?'
"I have a guest waiting, Prince Li...I need to go now..."
"And I haven't give a permission to accept your guest in my house, HuaMuTan!"
TanTan looks to him, feels upset again but she realizes the courtesy in old times can be so troublesome. This time she admits,
"Well, I know its my wrong not to ask you first...but do you need to be a rude host? I can't just kick her out and swallow back my words..."
"..., Tell me first why do you want to invite her?" Prince Li asks. Its weird for Prince Li to see HuaMuTan close with LadyFengHuang's sister, and also defended Lady FengHuang in the law mansion today, knowing their bad relationship in the past.
"QingQing was the one who save me in the gamble of house before ,I just want to repay her favor...that's it...is it wrong?" TanTan feels a little bit nervous, she doesn't want to tell Prince Li if she is still looking clues about her killers and the silver mask.
"Hm..." Prince Li keeps staring on her, examining in his thought, that makes TanTan more nervous, Prince Li is the owner of this mansion so he has full right to accept or reject any guest. And he looks still suspicious to QingQing so she adds...
"How...how about we make a deal....what should I do so QingQing can stay?"
Prince Li rises his eyebrow,
'A deal? it looks that this QingQing quite important to her...' He smirks a little bit,
"Is it mean that you will obey to anything I say?"
"Just one time and as long its not against human right ,my right!" TanTan points out her finger to make it clear. She obviously won't let the Prince takes benefit of it.
Prince Li is still staring on her,
"How can I trust you? You can easily deny the deal."
TanTan sighs, somehow she feels down knowing that the Prince still doesn't believe her but she realizes every deal should based on the legal terms.
"Fine, just give me a paper to sign..."
She continues in her mind,
'Even better if its a divorce paper....'
"A paper? Why need to waste it?" Prince Li looks to TanTan weirdly then he instructs a servant to call Uncle Tong... TanTan forgets that in ancient time like things like paper is still rare and expensive.
Not too long, Uncle Tong comes into the room and wondering why he is being called. He greets Prince Li and TanTan politely and waiting no more longer, Prince Li explains the situation to him,
"So...Uncle Tong will be the witness between us. To be clear, I let QingQing stay in here as long you promise to do one thing I ask you to do, right?"
"That's...right! But like I said as long its not against human right! Tell me actually what do you want me to do?" TanTan narrows her eyes, staring to Prince Li. Coz she has a little worry that she might digging her own hole.
"Don't worry...I won't force you to do something against the law. But how if you the one who doesn't do the deal?"
Now its Prince Li's turn to be aware,
"Then I and QingQing will go out from this Mansion...as well that you may divorce me later" TanTan is serious in every her words.
'Again she mentions about divorce...
What's her game really?!' Prince Li sees he doesn't get any lose in this deal, so he agrees with the terms,
"Fine...Uncle Tong, you heard it? Be our witness"
Uncle Tong is actually puzzled with the situation, 'Why do they need to go this far just for letting a guest to stay?' but he doesn't dare to speak his mind for its not his position to say, he just agrees to be their witness.
"Ok, now its clear...so can QingQing stay?" TanTan once again makes sure the deal is on now.
"Yes, she may....Uncle Tong...ask Aunt Tong to prepare a room for Ms QingQing." Uncle Tong glads that he can leave the room, he excuses himself and walks out ,doing the order.
"And the term you ask me to do?" TanTan still wonders about it, hoping that Prince Li just asks some house chores or something like that.
Prince Li smirks again.
"I'll tell you later...maybe tomorrow..."
He stands and leave the room, leaving TanTan alone. TanTan sudden realizes something which makes her irritates a little bit.
'Didn't I suppose to go out first from the room just now??! How annoying!'
But TanTan puts her irritating feeling beside as she remembers QingQing is waiting for her, so she is also walking out from the room.
During dinner, TanTan tries her best to eat as fast as she can but the delicious roast chicken makes her hard to achieve her goal. She just keeps grabbing piece by piece of the chicken.
