Chapter 39: Do the Crown Prince and Miss Lu know each other?

The manor has several flower fields, with mountains above the fields and lakes below, offering a wide and magnificent view of blue skies, green mountains, and clear waters.

Lin Yicheng was very enthusiastic and worried that Lu Fengqing would get sunburned, so she followed behind Lu Fengqing and personally held an umbrella for her.

It's practically like he has "I'm pursuing you" written all over his face.

"Hey, what's Yicheng doing?"

"What can you do? You want to pursue Miss Lu, that's all."

Miss Lu is stunningly beautiful. She only stayed one night and didn't even attend the banquet, yet everyone already knew about her.

Now, her fame in the manor is in no way inferior to that of the Crown Prince.

If Lin Yicheng hadn't acted so quickly, they would have wanted to pursue her too.

Who doesn't love a beautiful woman?

Lin Yicheng laughed and scolded, "Get lost, don't bother me."

Turning around, she said to Lu Fengqing with feigned composure, "Don't worry about them, I'll take you to the rose field over there."

As Lin Yicheng spoke, she didn't dare look at Lu Fengqing; her shy and bashful appearance made her seem quite innocent.

Lu Fengqing glanced at his burning ears and found it amusing.

She got on Gu Suixing's "pirate ship" at a young age, but didn't have a passionate early romance, and didn't even experience being pursued by a boy during her entire student years.

Later, when Gu Suixing went abroad, no one was watching her anymore. Her reputation for extravagance and lavish spending spread throughout the entire circle. Men had to think twice before pursuing her, to the point that no man dared to pursue her at all.

Lu Fengqing was very curious. Had this child found out about her before daring to fawn over her?

She doesn't have a penchant for toying with other people's feelings. While it's certainly enjoyable to have someone running around taking care of you, she doesn't have any romantic feelings for this child. It's fine if he's just a passing fancy, but if there are any long-term plans, she'll have to find an opportunity to make things clear with him.

As the two walked into the rose field, a faint voice came from behind them.

"Miss Lu."

Lu Fengqing's eyelids twitched.

"Ms. Zhang." When Lin Yicheng saw Zhang Qin, the scene from last night resurfaced in her mind, and her eyes twitched violently.

Zhang Qin walked around to Lu Fengqing and said in a resentful tone, "I waited for you so long last night."

Lu Fengqing: "..."

Who made you wait?

Lu Fengqing suppressed the urge to roll her eyes and put on an apologetic smile, but there was no apology in her eyes at all. "I ran into Ms. Xie Chaowan on my way back to the banquet hall last night. She invited me to her place, and I really couldn't refuse. I'm sorry, Ms. Zhang, for keeping you waiting."

As expected.

Zhang Qin became even angrier after hearing the explanation.

Everyone knows that Xie Chaowan is Xie Chaoyin's twin sister. The two siblings have an extremely good relationship, and there are countless benefits to getting on Xie Chaowan's good side. Why hasn't she ever met Xie Chaowan?

What incredible luck did Lu Fengqing have?

Despite her anger, Zhang Qin didn't forget her purpose. Her gaze swept lightly over Lin Yicheng as she asked, "Want to go to the indoor ski resort?"

Lu Fengqing didn't immediately refuse, "What would we be doing over there?"

Looking at Lu Fengqing's fair and radiant skin, Zhang Qin felt both envious and jealous, and immediately changed her mind: "Forget it, you'd better not go. It's fine as long as you stay in the sun."

Lu Fengqing could easily guess Zhang Qin's thoughts, and said with a cold smile, "Since Miss Zhang has extended such a warm invitation, I shall go."

You want to get a tan so dark you can laugh at her? Dream on!

Lu Fengqing turned to Lin Yicheng and said, "Let's go check out the ski resort. We can come back when the sun isn't so strong in the evening."

Lin Yicheng naturally had no objection. "Okay. I'll take you there."

As soon as the three of them stepped outside the ski resort, they saw a group of people walking in another direction.

Lin Yicheng pulled one of them aside and asked, "What happened? Why are you all heading that way?"

"I heard that the young masters are going to form a team to play ice hockey. The eldest son of the Xie family and the young master of the Gu family are also there. They're all rushing over to watch the fun."

Zhang Qin's eyes lit up. "Let's go take a look!"

Looking at her excited appearance, Lu Fengqing glanced at her and asked, "What's wrong? Have you taken a fancy to the eldest son of the Xie family or the crown prince of the Gu family?"

How could Zhang Qin possibly tell Lu Fengqing something like this?

Zhang Qin regained her composure in a second and said casually, "Just joining in the fun."

Lu Fengqing scoffed.

As they spoke, the three arrived at the ice rink.

Almost as soon as Lu Fengqing appeared on the ice rink, all the men noticed her arrival.

Putting aside Miss Lu's renowned name, everyone loves to look at a beautiful woman.

Lu Fengqing ignored those gazes and looked at the man not far away who was surrounded by a crowd of people.

Ice hockey protective gear is heavy and doesn't look good, but on him it doesn't look clumsy or ridiculous. Instead, it gives him a violent beauty, a wildness full of hormones that strikes straight to the heart of women.

"That number 17 on the red team, isn't that the young master of the Gu family in City A? That face, that body... wow—is he taken? If he isn't, I'm going to sleep with him."

"I don't know. But I heard he came with a female companion."

"You think you can just go ahead like that? Don't you even know if you're good enough?"

"I'm not worthy, are you?"

Hearing the whispers around her, Zhang Qin subconsciously glanced towards Gu Suixing.

This young master's appearance is so outstanding that everyone else becomes mere background figures when he's around.

But when Zhang Qin thought about what the young master had said during their blind date, she felt a pang of regret.

How could such a good man not be right for you...?

The more she thought about it, the more regrettable it seemed, but she couldn't tell anyone. So Zhang Qin could only sigh to Lu Fengqing, "God is actually fair."

Lu Fengqing ignored her, her gaze remaining fixed on Gu Suixing.

Although he had a faint smile on his face and seemed very friendly and easy to talk to, based on her understanding of him, he seemed to be in a bad mood.

Who upset this old man so early in the morning?

Seemingly noticing her gaze, the man suddenly raised his eyes and looked in her direction.

After a moment, he looked away, lowered his head slightly, said something to the person next to him, and walked towards her.

Almost simultaneously, everyone's eyes in the ice rink followed this figure.

Several women standing not far from Lu Fengqing were extremely excited.

"Holy crap, he's here! He's here!"

"Come on then, can you stop tugging at my sleeve, you idiot? Never seen a man before?"

These women kept saying they wanted to go for it, but when the person arrived, none of them dared to move.

From a distance, it looked alright, but as the Crown Prince approached, they realized that his aura was too strong, so much so that they didn't dare to approach him.

"Isn't that Miss Lu? Does the Crown Prince know Miss Lu?"

"Miss Lu and the Huo siblings have a good relationship, so they should know each other, but whether they are close is hard to say."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, amidst whispers, the young master walked up to Miss Lu.
