Chapter 60 Are You Moved?

Such a familiar voice? Zhong Min couldn't help but smile slightly. Looking in the direction of the noise, he saw the owner of the voice, Zheng Ruyu, leading people towards the carriage.

Zheng Ruyu was dressed extra grandly today. Her delicate and heavy makeup made her already pretty face even more gorgeous, and her gorgeous corseted long skirt made her figure even more graceful. Coupled with the tenderness she deliberately revealed in front of Xiao Mingzheng, even Zhong Min couldn't help but shake his head secretly. How could she be described in just one word, "beautiful"!

It’s a pity that if this person is beautiful but not kind-hearted, he will be nothing but beautiful on the outside but rotten on the inside, and no matter what, no one can truly like him.

"Is your Majesty alright?" Seeing this, Zhong Min immediately took on the responsibility of a personal maid, got out of the carriage and stopped Zheng Ruyu. "The prince is about to leave. If there's nothing else, please don't delay him."

This woman was truly unpleasant, so she didn't want to treat her well, either publicly or privately. Zhong Min deliberately blocked Zheng Ruyu's way, hoping to teach her that it was better to be kind. As the saying goes, fortunes change, and she shouldn't think she was so great that anyone could bully her.

Seeing that the naughty girl Zhong Min actually blocked her, Zheng Ruyu was so angry that she couldn't wait to get angry. However, the prince was right in front of her, so she naturally didn't dare to lose her temper and lose her image.

"Your Highness, I have something to tell you." Zheng Ruyu simply ignored Zhong Min and leaned forward to say to Xiao Mingzheng in the carriage, "Your Highness, please allow me to pass through."

Seeing this, Xiao Mingzheng didn't know what Zheng Ruyu wanted to do, so he waved to Zhong Min, signaling her to let Zheng Ruyu pass.

Seeing that the person involved had spoken, Zhong Min naturally stopped trying to stop him and stepped aside to make way. Zheng Ruyu was immediately overjoyed. She quickly stepped forward and hummed at Zhong Min in a demonstrative manner, looking like a winner.

Zhong Min simply smiled at Zheng Ruyu's smugness and provocation. This silly woman was actually in the mood to challenge her. Hopefully, she had something important to say. Otherwise, given Xiao Mingzheng's personality, Zheng Ruyu would be in for another setback. Then, let's see what this woman's smugness was all about.

"Your Highness..." Zheng Ruyu walked to the front of the carriage, saluted towards Xiao Mingzheng, and called out sweetly, looking very charming and pitiful.

Unfortunately, Xiao Mingzheng didn't buy it. Seeing Zheng Ruyu remained silent for a long time, constantly standing before him and flirting, he immediately felt disgusted. With a cold face, he said sparingly, "If you have something to say, just tell me."

Seeing Xiao Mingzheng so impatient, Zheng Ruyu felt extremely aggrieved, but she didn't dare to complain to his face. She could only say pitifully, "Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you so much. I have wanted to see you for a long time, but I was afraid that Your Highness has not forgiven my past mistakes, so I didn't dare. Today, I heard that Your Highness was going to Lin County and would not be back for several days, so I dared to come here to see you off."

"Is that all?" Xiao Mingzheng's face turned even colder when he heard this. He didn't know why this woman could be so stupid. If it weren't for her father and brother, he wouldn't have wanted to say a word.

"Your Highness, I originally thought you would have Sister Liu accompany you to serve. Since Your Highness did not bring Sister Liu, I would like to ask Your Highness to take me along." Zheng Ruyu did not seem to notice that Xiao Mingzheng's expression was becoming increasingly unpleasant. Instead of restraining herself, she continued with courage and anticipation, "Your Highness, rest assured. Along the way, I will serve you wholeheartedly and promise not to give you..."

"No need!" Xiao Mingzheng interrupted Zheng Ruyu coldly and ordered the attendant beside him, "Take her back and don't let her wander around for no reason."

When Zheng Ruyu heard what Xiao Mingzheng said, her face turned pale immediately. Before she could react, she was carried by the servants beside her to the gate of the palace.

Seeing this, Zhong Min couldn't help but laugh out loud with glee. When he heard Xiao Mingzheng say, "Let's go," he quickly stopped laughing, stepped lightly onto the carriage, and set off with them.

Xie Feng rode in front to lead the way, while Luo Jiaxing and his men rode on both sides of the carriage. The people responsible for protection this time included not only the dozens of inner protection guards trained by Zhong Min himself, but also the outer advance guards and scattered secret guards, totaling more than one hundred people. If the soldiers on standby at all times in various places are included, the number of people will be even more considerable.

Zhong Min knew that in a fight with cold weapons, the number of people was definitely the biggest indicator of power. Although she did not quite agree with the human wave tactic, considering the extent to which Xiao Mingzheng was being targeted, so many people was not an exaggerated arrangement.

Lin County wasn't close from here. Even if they set out early in the morning and didn't get delayed, they wouldn't arrive until dark. Xiao Mingzheng had been sitting there reading since they left, with nothing else to do. So, although Zhong Min was bored, she felt quite at ease. Whether she was daydreaming or just closing her eyes to rest, Xiao Mingzheng paid no attention.

The carriage was not a very convenient means of transportation for Zhong Min. Although he was not carsick due to the constant shaking, he felt dizzy and had no energy at all. He fell asleep unknowingly.

I don’t know how long I slept. When Zhong Min opened his eyes again, he found Xiao Mingzheng still reading a book. He also saw that the tea on the small table had hardly been touched. He thought that he probably didn’t sleep for long.

After waking up, she naturally lost her sleepiness. She looked left and right, completely bored, and unconsciously began to scrutinize Xiao Mingzheng. After secretly observing him for a while, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Honestly, Xiao Mingzheng was quite good-looking. If his personality were a little more agreeable, he would probably instantly seduce countless people of both the opposite and the same sex.

As he was watching, Xiao Mingzheng, who had been concentrating on reading, suddenly shifted his gaze from the book to Zhong Min, and instantly caught the peeping person red-handed.

"Does it look good?" He asked without any expression, and no emotion could be heard or seen in his voice.

Zhong Min never expected such an unexpected incident to happen, and she never expected Xiao Mingzheng to ask such a question in such a sinister way. She had no idea what this man was thinking.

"Ah?" She couldn't help but laugh dryly, then cleared her throat and said frankly: "Well, to be honest... it looks good."

"You are not ashamed at all." Xiao Mingzheng did not expect that Zhong Min would actually dare to answer honestly. He felt a little funny in his heart. As he spoke, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily, revealing a very faint smile.

Seeing that Xiao Mingzheng wasn't upset, Zhong Min, who was bored anyway, simply said casually, "I'm just telling the truth. What does it have to do with shame? Besides, I don't have any other thoughts, so I'm just being frank and honest. By the way..."

Having said this, she paused, then crossed her arms and continued to speak to Xiao Mingzheng with a look of careful scrutiny: "Your Highness, to be honest, if you smiled more often like you did just now, you would be even more beautiful. I bet no girl would not be moved by you."

"Really?" Seeing this, Xiao Mingzheng put down the book in his hand, gave Zhong Min another faint smile, stared at Zhong Min, and a rare emotion flashed in his eyes.

This time the smile was much more obvious than the previous one, and it lasted much longer. It was the first time that Zhong Min saw Xiao Mingzheng with such a lethal smile, and she immediately became excited.

"Yes, yes, yes, that's it. It's a pity there is no mirror here, otherwise Your Highness would have to look at him himself. He is so handsome!" Zhong Min was absolutely sure that she was not a fangirl, but Xiao Mingzheng did look super charming now. Everyone has a love of beauty, and she was naturally in a very good mood to be able to feast her eyes on him when she was so bored.

Xiao Mingzheng had clearly never heard Zhong Min say the word "handsome." He wasn't sure what it meant, but he assumed it was a compliment. Seeing Zhong Min's excitement, he couldn't help but feel better too. It was just that this woman was incredibly bold, even daring him, a prince, to speak so openly about her.

"What about you?" For some unknown reason, he asked this question again, and in his heart he had an indescribable expectation for Zhong Min's upcoming answer.

"Me?" Zhong Min was imagining Xiao Mingzheng's expression as he looked at himself in the mirror. He didn't react for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

"Are you interested?" Xiao Mingzheng, just like before, had a faint smile on his face, and asked calmly when Zhong Min didn't react.

It was the first time Zhong Min had seen Xiao Mingzheng smile for so long, and even chatting with her about such a topic, which really made her feel that something was amiss. And then she heard his direct questioning, and her excitement instantly subsided a lot.

However, she quickly reacted, coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "As for me, theoretically I am a girl, and practically I am also a girl. However, I rarely think of myself as a girl, so you can be like me and don't have to treat me as a girl."

Zhong Min's answer was not a deliberate avoidance of the main point, but she had indeed never equated herself with the delicate little flowers in this world, so her view was not standard.

Besides, he is a prince after all. If you tell the truth, you might not feel comfortable offending him.

After hearing her answer, the smile on Xiao Mingzheng's face immediately disappeared, and he instantly returned to his usual expression. He stared at Zhong Min with eyes that were once again emotionless.

Seeing Xiao Mingzheng's reaction, Zhong Min suddenly felt uneasy. Xiao Mingzheng was so smart that he could naturally hear the hidden meaning in her words. Could it be that he felt embarrassed even in this way? If so, then his pride was a bit too strong.
