"you……"
Sang Jiang was about to curse when she saw who it was, but she swallowed it back: "Why are you here?"
Long Jingyu frowned: "Were you about to curse me just now?"
His voice remained clear and gentle, and his beautiful eyes seemed to see through everything.
Sang Jiang smiled and said, "How could that be? You're overthinking it."
As she spoke, she reached for another cup and poured him a glass of water. She couldn't help but mutter, "What's wrong with them? Why do they all use the windows instead of the doors?"
Long Jingyu frowned. He looked at the empty cup next to him and gently touched it with his finger. The cup was warm, which meant that someone had used it not long ago. In other words, someone had broken into her window before he arrived.
Long Jingyu took the cup from her hand and took a small sip.
Sang Jiang sat down opposite him and asked seriously, "Does Your Highness have something to discuss with me?"
Long Jingyu saved her life, so in her heart, Long Jingyu is different.
Long Jingyu nodded, a smile playing on her lips: "Do you have time? I'll take you somewhere?"
"Where to?" Sang Jiang frowned. She didn't understand why going somewhere required such secrecy, and why they had to climb through the window.
“You’ll see when you get there.” Long Jingyu put down the cup in her hand, glanced at Sang Jiang, and then grabbed her wrist and walked towards the window.
Sang Jiang didn't react for a moment. She only realized what was happening when Long Jingyu picked her up and placed her outside the window. His warm, large hand had just left her wrist. Her face flushed red instantly, and she quickly lowered her head, afraid that Long Jingyu would see.
Long Jingyu didn't pay much attention to that. He put his arm around Sang Jiang's waist and whispered, "Hold on to me."
His tone was clear and gentle, yet it made one unable to help but believe him, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on Long Jingyu's clothes.
Sensing her movement, Long Jingyu lightly touched the ground with her toes and flew away.
Having learned from her previous experience, Sang Jiang was no longer so afraid. She glanced back and forth at Long Jingyu as he looked down at her, and then slowed down her movements.
Before long, Long Jingyu led her to the roof of a very familiar courtyard.
Sang Jiang frowned and looked around. Wasn't this Huai Fengyue?
Why did Long Jingyu bring her here?
Long Jingyu noticed her confusion and flew down, landing steadily at the entrance of Huai Fengyue. Huai Fengyue had already regained its former glory, while the Yu Chun Lou across the street was now less crowded than Huai Fengyue.
Huai Feng Yue was frequented not only by men, but also by women.
Long Jingyu said something to the woman at the door. The woman glanced in Sang Jiang's direction, smiled, and turned to leave. After a while, the woman came out again and handed something to Long Jingyu. Long Jingyu took it and walked towards her.
As he drew closer, Sang Jiang felt that the thing in his hand looked increasingly familiar, until Long Jingyu stood beside her and handed it to her.
She looked at the lip rouge in her hand with a wry smile. She had developed it before entering the palace and given the formula to Liu Ruyu. This should be the one Liu Ruyu had someone make and is now selling.
Long Jingyu frowned upon seeing her expression: "Is there a problem?"
He noticed that Sang Jiang liked this kind of thing, so the first person he thought of when he saw it was Sang Jiang. The reason he didn't bring it back to her directly was because he was afraid that Sang Jiang would be interested in the person who made it, and he also wanted to take her out for a walk.
Although he was not in the capital recently, he was still very clear about what was happening in the palace.
Sang Jiang: Am I interested in myself?
However, she dared not say this aloud. She looked at Long Jingyu and smiled, "No, it's fine."
"So...it's fine?" Long Jingyu frowned.
