His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 68: Husband, you haven't introduced us

Bai Lan and other servants have set up the table. There is Li Jun. There is his second wife. There is his son. There is me.

Why I am here? I don't fit this 'family mealtime' equation at all.

Though Bai Lan is cool and composed, the servants are looking at me with curiosity. His concubine is all smiles. I feel jolts in my body when I notice the look in her eyes. This princess doesn't like that I am here. I don't like her either.

"Are we having an early lunch?" His second wife asks him.

Early lunch? I don't have a watch or anything. I can't sleep. I kept my eyes close for the entire night and thought about the keeper's problem. Maybe I thought too much and too deeply because the entire house was already awake when I opened my eyes.

"I was hungry," Li Jun replies quietly. "Xiao Wei, why are you not eating?"

"..."

I am not really hungry. I sigh and pick up the chopsticks. I can get by without eating, but I should eat anyway. I have to look human. The food looks delicious. But, I can't tell the taste. I notice that I am being stared at. I look at the husband, wife, and the kid.

"What's wrong?" I ask Li Jun.

The wife sighs mildly and starts feeding the kid first. He's young. He should be 2 or 3. He has Li Jun's nose, ears, and forehead. He must have his mother's eyes. He is a quiet child and attached to the second wife.

In the original timeline that I destroyed, I got pregnant with Kang Si An's child.

I stop thinking and stuff my mouth. If I recall things that I could have, I would never have peace. Li Jun is happy. Kang Si An will be happy because I will make sure that he doesn't fall in love with me. I will probably die right after my time starts running.

"Husband, you haven't introduced us."

Wu Qiuyue's voice is neither high nor low. It's saccharine sweet and flowing like moonlight when she's talking to Li Jun. Her movements are elegant and feminine. I can't find any flaw in her. The thirteenth princess who married Li Jun in both timelines is better than me in every aspect.

She's not a time-traveler. Her time is not accidentally frozen. She's not from a future. Did I mention that she's a freaking real princess? In this timeline, Li Jun married two princesses. Two!

I ignore her and empty the bowl. The servant rushes toward me and fills it again.

Hmph! I am sure that Kang Si An's thing for princesses came from Li Jun.

I should have never come here.

I am still your wife, hey! We got married once.

God, give me the strength to not beat up my husband. Please make me blind.

"Wu Qiuyue, his name is Mo Wei. He's going to live with us from now on." Li Jun says to her nonchalantly, "I will train him as my soldier. Take care of him."

Cough! Cough!

I choke on the food.

Blockhead! She's asking why I am here. Can't you tell by her gaze? And who will live with who? Hey, mister! I can forgive you for being lovey-dovey with your second wife because you don't know that you married me once. But, who are you to make decisions on my behalf? Aren't people afraid of witches and demons in old times? Why does he insist on keeping one at his house?

On top of everything, he's asking 'her' to take care of me.

I get it. He's not married to me. He has no idea. But, asking his second wife to take care of his first wife from the original time is just sick.

His second wife glances at me. Her red lips curl up. "Little brother, eat slowly."

Maybe my womanly intuition has finally decided to activate. I can just feel it. She hates me.

Li Jun eyes me strangely. I look down at the bowl. I don't know how many I have stuffed into my stomach. It's probably enough. I put it down and thank the people who have given me food. as politely as I can before dashing out of the current most awkward place on the earth.

My luck isn't that great. I run straight to my courtyard. I jump into the bed and hide inside the blanket. I don't want to get out of here.

But, my peace is shortlived. Someone pulls the safety blanket away from me. Li Jun is standing next to my bed.

"Why are you here?" I keep my tone calm. "I am a woman, alright. Don't come into the bedroom as you please."

It hasn't even 24 hours since I came here. I might get the wrong idea and jump on you which might give you a wrong idea. Life is already complicated. I am upset that you have other women in your life. The thirteenth princess is still married to you. You also have a child with another princess who is already dead.

He has no qualms about sitting on a woman's bed. I move away to keep distance between us. I won't see him as my husband. I have turned back time. Our marriage is automatically annulled.

"Because you are pretending to be a man, I can come and go as I please," He tells me coolly. "You have to pretend to become a soldier. I will personally train you. That's an only excuse to keep you close to me. You are a hostage witch, after all."

My treacherous heart is happy to hear that he wants me to stay close to him. I am curious about one thing though. "What if I had picked up the woman's clothes? How would you keep me close to you then?"

He stares hard at me. "Your looks are enough to get you the position of my second concubine."
