The Matter of the Crown Prince Falling for Her in One Second

Crown Prince Zhang Youye from the Jing Circle. He was known for his noble, lazy, and unruly nature. After encountering his mother's affair, he was determined not to go through with the arranged...

Chapter 19 I looked at your face, gently strumming chords

After gazing at her with eyes as deep as the sea for a moment, Zhang Youye took the guitar, slung the guitar strap over his shoulder, and handed the microphone to her.

Ignoring the audience and the barrage of comments, he looked at Shu Yi and spoke softly.

"Since the atmosphere is already so lively, I can only sing one of your favorite songs."

"What do you want to sing?" Startled by his words, Shu Yi tilted her head.

He gave a look to Xiao Mo, who was engrossed in watching the sweet moments next to him, and she understood immediately.

He quickly walked to the side and gestured to his assistant to play the accompaniment that the young master had just asked him to play via WeChat.

With a confident gaze, Zhang Youye noticed Xiao Mo's gesture, a slight smile playing on his lips, and plucked the strings of his zither.

He tried to recapture the feeling of playing after a long time, placed his palm on the guitar soundboard, and chuckled softly.

"You'll know as soon as I sing."

The deep, resonant voice struck Shu Yi's soft, delicate chest, causing her to instinctively tighten her grip on the microphone.

As the familiar melody played by the assistant reached their ears, the vast square erupted in commotion once again.

Influenced by the melody etched in her heart, Shu Yi's pupils dilated slightly, her eyes sparkled, and her heartbeat gradually quickened.

A fleeting emotion of joy crossed her dark eyes, and a watery smile played at the corners of her eyes.

Seemingly satisfied with her reaction, Zhang Youye plucked the strings to follow the accompaniment.

"This wind chime is very similar to the feeling of being moved."

"This letter still reminisces about the trip."

"The loves that pass by are all too young."

"You are the scenery I want to return to."

This parting was bottled up as a secret.

"These daisies are as beautiful as a poem."

And I await news of you in the wind.

"Waiting for the moonlight to fall on the snow"

"Waiting for the maple leaves to turn red in autumn, waiting for our meeting."

"......"

As the climax approached, the audience spontaneously turned on their phone flashlights and waved and swayed to the music.

He seemed oblivious to the sea of ​​flashing lights before him; he only wanted to wait for the lyrics he most wanted to sing to appear.

With the guitar in hand, Zhang Youye naturally turned his head, fixing his gaze on the stunning profile of the woman beside him.

His eyes were overflowing with tender affection.

"I watched your face as you gently strummed chords."

"Handwritten Valentine's Day cards forever"

Do you still remember performing together in the square and park?

"The candy store next to the campus holds a sweet memory."

"I watched your face as you gently strummed chords."

"First love is a whole handwritten record of the past."

Do you still remember saying goodbye that autumn?

When the romance has faded away

I will keep you deep in my heart.

"......"

This gaze is far too blatant.

It is an irresistible, burning desire.

Forcing herself to look him in the eye for three seconds was probably overestimating her abilities. In the instant she subconsciously shifted her gaze, Shu Yi seemed to notice the mischievousness in the boy's eyes.

After a brief moment of surprise, she smiled knowingly.

His gaze then shifted elsewhere.

To complement the prince's performance, the lights in the square were somehow switched on to emit light.

Following his example, she steadily pointed the microphone at the bottom of the guitar and listened attentively.

As she listened, she, like the other audience members, would unconsciously sway to the melody.

It turns out that talented people can be so attractive.

Although he is not a professional singer, he has good physical attributes and a very pleasant, light voice.

His singing voice feels like a refreshing lemonade on a hot summer day, something you can gulp down on.

It's cool and refreshing, a feeling of comfort from head to toe.

As she listened intently, Shu Yi's gaze involuntarily fell on his profile.

The sky was gradually darkening, and he stood right at the foot of the brightest light.

Her blonde hair was bathed in warm light.

His eyebrows and eyes were delicate and handsome, his features were sharp and distinct, and he exuded a strong sense of youthful innocence.

Unexpectedly, he kept looking at her with his eyes lowered, showing her the burning intensity in his gaze.

Their eyes met, and in that instant...

Shu Yi keenly sensed that something had already exploded inside her body.

It was an emotion that defied description, seemingly wanting to burst forth from her body.

In that moment of distraction, her heart inexplicably sank.

I couldn't hear anything clearly from the side of my ear either.

What is certain is that an endless stream of unspoken emotions were surging within her.

They poured into my limbs and bones from all directions.

They boil in the blood, roar in the bone marrow, and survive in the cells.

This unfamiliar, overwhelming force, Shu Yi thought, perhaps, would only come after it had completely permeated her entire body.

They will eventually remain in the place where the heart is preserved, in this molten lava.

They took root and grew wildly.

...

Meanwhile, at the Shu family ancestral home.

When I received a call from the mall manager.

Zhang Youye's father and second uncle were still discussing the marriage alliance with Old Master Shu in the Lueyue Hall.

At that moment, wearing his reading glasses and watching the live stream, Shu Qiyi laughed heartily a few times.

"This kid is quite the entertainer. Look how happy I am with my granddaughter."

"Brother, Youye seems like a completely different person." Zhang Zhiting whispered in his older brother's ear, "It's been so long since I've seen him smile like that. Could it be that this kid has really fallen for Yi-ya?"

Zhang Jinnan was also completely baffled by his son's fickle nature.

However, judging from his beaming smile, the marriage is probably a done deal.

Put down your phone.

The two then continued to discuss the marriage alliance with Elder Shu.
