He took a bite slowly. It was too sweet and he didn't like it very much.

Shen Shuyi saw that there were round, red cherries on the table. She started eating them, frowning slightly, "A little sour."

Zhao Heng saw her eating one cherry after another. The round red cherries entered her little mouth. She took a light bite and frowned. She looked so cute.

The corners of his lips could not help but slightly rise, his Adam's apple rolling, "If it's not enough, I'll have someone send it over."

She seemed to muster up her courage and said, "Your Highness, the peach blossoms on Lishui Mountain are in full bloom. Have you gone to see them?"

"It doesn't matter. Is it because I'm walking too fast and you can't keep up?" The man's voice was gentle.
