Chapter 453 Life is really too hard!

When the shopkeeper saw that he was well-dressed and had a ferocious look, he knew that this man was not someone to be trifled with. He did not dare to play tricks on him anymore and quickly apologized.

"Don't be angry, I'll go get you a jug of good wine right now, and I'll waive your wine bill today."

After saying that, he quickly took the pot of water and ran away.

Soon he brought a new jug of wine.

Luo Yechen took a sip and made sure that it was not diluted with water before letting the shopkeeper leave.

He didn't eat any food, just drank alone.

Xiao Xixi felt sorry for him and decided to comfort him.

"Don't be sad. If the old doesn't go away, the new will come. Sooner or later, you will meet someone better."

Luo Yechen sniffed, his face flushed from the alcohol he had drunk: "Really?"

Xiao Xixi said as she ate, "Of course it's true. There are so many noble ladies in the capital. If you look carefully, you will definitely find her..."

She hesitated here.

"Forget it, it's fine for you to be single like this."

Luo Yechen: "Why?"

Xiao Xixi: "She is innocent, you can't hurt her, right?"

Luo Yechen: “…”

He angrily said, "What do you mean by harming others? I am the King of England after all. Am I not even worthy of a noble lady?!"

His shout was heard throughout the tavern, and when the owner heard him claiming to be the King of England, he was so frightened that his face changed color.

Oh my goodness! He actually sold watered-down wine to the King of England. Will he be arrested and sent to jail?

Xiao Xixi comforted him, "Don't worry, I don't mean to look down on you, I just want to comfort you."

Luo Yechen was both angry and aggrieved: "Is there anyone who can comfort others like you?"

Xiao Xixi: "I was wrong, I was wrong. I will punish myself with a bowl of rice."

She finished a bowl of rice in just a few gulps.

Luo Yechen was very annoyed when he saw her unsatisfied look: "Are you here to comfort me, or to eat for free?"

Xiao Xixi: "I'm mainly here to comfort you and have a meal."

Luo Yechen snorted, showing his disdain for her words.

Xiao Xixi said with emotion: "You should be more open-minded and don't hurt yourself and feel sad because of such a small thing. You should know that many things in life will gradually get better with the passage of time."

Luo Yechen rarely heard her speak human words, so he perked up a little: "For example?"

Xiao Xixi thought about it seriously: "For example, you are just stupid now, but after a long time you will become really stupid."

Luo Yechen: “…”

Luo Qinghan: “…”

Luo Qinghan wanted to laugh, but after thinking about it, he felt it was inappropriate, so he covered the slightly upturned corners of his mouth by drinking tea.

At this moment, Luo Yechen felt that he was really stupid. He actually expected Concubine Xiao to comfort him.

He was a little upset: "I beg you to be a human being, please? I'm already in such a miserable state, can't you speak like a human being?!"

Xiao Xixi looked innocent: "Am I wrong?"

Luo Yechen: "Whether it's right or not, you can't say that! Think about it, if it was you who saw the prince flirting with another woman, wouldn't you feel sad, upset and angry?"

Luo Qinghan put down the teacup: "Don't use me as an example."

Luo Yechen stiffened his neck and said, "I was just making an analogy!"

Xiao Xixi said, "If I were you, I would probably be very angry, and then I would secretly swear that I would never be angry again, and then nothing would happen."

Luo Yechen: “…”

I find that you, as a woman, have a very tricky perspective on things!

Luo Qinghan obviously didn't expect Xiao Xixi to be so flexible. After hesitating for a while, he whispered, "I won't flirt with other women."

So you don't have to compromise like this.

Xiao Xixi said, "I know."

The prince is now in the rising stage of his career, so how could he have the time to flirt with women?

When he is successful in his career and reaches the peak of his life, if he wants a woman, he doesn't need to seduce her at all, because she will come to him on her own.

Fortunately, the prince didn’t know what she was thinking, otherwise he would have been furious on the spot.

Not only did Luo Yechen fail to get any comfort from Concubine Xiao, but he was instead ridiculed by her words.

He didn't want to talk anymore and just drank alone.

Xiao Xixi: "Drink less."

Luo Yechen: "Don't worry about it!"

Xiao Xixi: "I'm not concerned about you, I'm just worried that you'll get drunk and no one will pay the bill."

Luo Yechen: “…”

He finally couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.

What sin had he committed that not only did he have to be toyed with by Xie Chuxue, but he also had to be hurt so madly by Concubine Xiao!

Life is so hard!

Luo Yechen cried bitterly while holding the wine jug

Xiao Xixi ate two more large bowls of rice while listening to his crying.

After she had eaten and drunk her fill, Luo Yechen finally stopped crying. He was already drunk to the point of passing out, lying motionless on the table.

Xiao Xixi clicked her tongue. Looking at him like this, he definitely couldn't pay.

She called the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and asked in a flattering manner, "Is there anything you can help me with?"

Xiao Xixi blurted out: "Can you pay the bill for me?"

Shopkeeper: “…”

Luo Qinghan took out a silver ingot and asked, "Is this enough?"

The shopkeeper took the silver and weighed it, then said hurriedly, "Not only is it enough, but it's more. Please wait a moment, I'll go and give you the change."

Luo Qinghan said, "No need to change the money. Use the extra money to hire a carriage and send this person back to the King of England's palace."

The shopkeeper quickly agreed: "Okay, okay, I will do it."

Luo Qinghan said to Xiao Xixi, "Go back."

Xiao Xixi touched her round belly and responded contentedly.

"Um."

This trip was really worth it. Not only did I get two meals, but I also got to see a great show.

It was already evening when the two of them returned to the East Palace in carriage.

Baoqin fetched some hot water and helped Concubine Xiao take a bath.

While Baoqin was helping her wash her body, she asked, "Madam, have you seen Miss Xie today?"

Xiao Xixi: “I saw it.”

"She didn't say anything unpleasant to you, did she?"

Xiao Xixi asked back: "What bad words can she say?"

"Didn't the Queen Mother want to bring her and the Crown Prince together? Even if the Crown Prince didn't agree, she is still half your rival in love. She sent you an invitation on purpose, so she must have bad intentions."

Xiao Xixi: "You think too much. Xie Chuxue has no intention of competing with me for the crown prince. She has her eyes on the second prince."

Baoqin was shocked: "Why is the Second Prince involved again? Didn't I hear that she is close to the King of England?"

Xiao Xixi: "Your news is too delayed. The King of England is a thing of the past. Now the Second Prince is the present tense of Xie Chuxue."

Baoqin was deeply impressed: "This Miss Xie is really a character. First she had a blind date with the Crown Prince, then she was involved with the King of England, and now she is hooking up with the Second Prince. She is not just playing two boats at once, she is really tying the boats together!"
