The prince stood still, staring at the man without moving.
"Sir, would you like to buy a string of candied haws? Which kind do you want?" the vendor asked the prince.
The prince seemed not to hear and did not respond.
Xia Miaoyuan looked at the strings of crystal clear, red candied haws stuck on the straw target and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
"Brother! Buy it quickly!" Xia Miaoyuan patted the prince's shoulder hard.
"Brother, what are you looking at? Hurry up and give me some money!"
The prince still did not respond.
At this time, Xia Miaoyuan heard a bright voice coming from the opposite side of the prince: "Boss, another string of candied haws for this little kid."
After the man said this, he took out five copper coins from his sleeve pocket and handed them to the vendor.
The vendor deftly pulled out a string of candied haws and handed it to Xia Miaoyuan.
Xia Miaoyuan:......
[What's going on? Why is someone treating me to candied haws?]
Xia Miaoyuan took the candied haws from the vendor and looked across.
I saw a young man wearing a light blue robe.
Xia Miaoyuan looked at the young man's face carefully again. It was fair and delicate, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes.
【She is Rong Chuyue! 】
Xia Miaoyuan was immediately amazed in his heart.
Unexpectedly, I met Rong Chuyue, a woman dressed as a man, on the street.
"I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be the young master of the Rong family!" said the prince with a smile.
"Brother Xia is always nice!" Rong Chuyue said sweetly.
The two men greeted each other, left the candied haws stall, and walked down the street.
Xia Miaoyuan lay on the prince's shoulder, chewing the candied haws diligently, but her mind was not idle.
"Brother Prince, you've finally met your soulmate, so grab him/her and express your feelings to her/him as soon as possible!"
"Um..." The prince tried hard to find a topic in his mind, "Long time no see!"
Rong Chuyue ate the candied haws in her hand slowly: "Yes."
"My dear brother, please find something to talk about! Talk to me! We finally get to meet, so please start talking!"
Seeing that the prince stuttered when he saw Rong Chuyue, Xia Miaoyuan was so anxious that she didn't even bother to eat the candied haws. The sugar on the hawthorns turned into syrup when exposed to the sun and flowed down her little hands.
Two blushes appeared on the prince's face. In fact, he was fine when he first met Rong Chuyue. But after he knew that Rong Chuyue was his true love and he also developed a love for Rong Chuyue, he became nervous when he saw her.
"Miss Rong, you came out to stroll around by yourself today, but are you here to see the students? There are so many students on the street lately."
The prince held it in for a long time before finally uttering a word.
puff--
Xia Miaoyuan was so angry at his brother that he laughed.
[Is there anyone who talks like you? Can you chat?]
[The Rong family has very strict discipline. Sister Rong finally managed to sneak out, and it was all to find you!]
[I thought you might be taking part in the scientific expedition. I might run into you on the street these days!]
[In the book, you are the only one in her heart from beginning to end. How could she have run away to see a man?]
After hearing his sister's words, the prince felt extremely regretful.
In fact, when he said that just now, he didn't mean to make any malicious assumptions about Rong Chuyue, but simply didn't know what to talk about.
Rong Chuyue looked a little embarrassed: "No, I was just bored at home, so I sneaked out."
Xia Miaoyuan was stunned. [Bored at home? Oh no, the Rong family must have started arranging a marriage for Rong Chuyue.]
[Brother, please express your feelings quickly and tell her who you are.]
[It's too late to say that. The Rong family might have arranged a marriage for her with someone of equal status. You'll regret it then.]
The prince bit his lip and said, "Miss Rong, your family is arranging a marriage for you, right?"
Rong Chuyue's face darkened and she nodded vigorously: "I don't like this."
The prince's lips curled up slightly. "Don't you like the fact that the elders in your family ignore your wishes and only care about family background and status when arranging marriages for you?"
Rong Chuyue sighed and said, "Exactly. I want to find someone I like and who likes me too. Only when we like each other can we become husband and wife and spend our lives together."
When she said this, Rong Chuyue's eyes lit up.
[Great, great, the time has come, brother, hurry up and express your feelings! Hurry!]
When the prince heard Rong Chuyue say this, he was very excited and wanted to tell Rong Chuyue that he liked her, but the words could not come out.
"Sister, you are so beautiful. My big brother loves you!"
Seeing that the prince was really incompetent, Xia Miaoyuan was so anxious that he said it out loud.
"Miao'er!" The prince's face turned red instantly, all the way to his ears.
Rong Chuyue's face also turned red, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth. She looked at Xia Miaoyuan gently, and then quickly glanced at the prince.
Seeing the prince's face flushed, Rong Chuyue tried to smooth things over by saying, "Children speak without restraint!"
"No, Miao'er is not talking nonsense. My brother really likes you!" Xia Miaoyuan was so anxious that he even dropped the candied haws.
She shook her head like a rattle.
"Will you be my sister-in-law?" Xia Miaoyuan asked in a baby voice, with a firm look in her eyes.
"Beautiful sister, can you be my sister-in-law? My eldest brother is not engaged yet."
Rong Chuyue turned her head and smiled with her hands covering her mouth.
In fact, she was very happy to hear Xia Miaoyuan say this.
Ever since she met Mr. Xia, she has been attracted to him, but she was upset because they parted in a hurry last time and did not ask about Mr. Xia's situation.
I don’t know which family this handsome young man Xia is from in the capital, nor do I know whether he is engaged or not, and whether I still have a chance.
Recently, Rong Chuyue's grandparents and parents have been saying that she is old and it is time to discuss marriage.
Rong Chuyue said that she didn't want to get married yet, but not only did she fail to stop the marriage proposal, but she also attracted the elders to persuade her again and again.
Seeing that she was powerless to stop the marriage proposal, Rong Chuyue could only deliberately be picky about the marriage candidate.
Recently, the imperial court held an imperial examination, and there were many students on the streets of the capital. Rong Chuyue couldn't contact Master Xia, and she was really anxious, so she changed into men's clothes and ran out, thinking of trying her luck to find Master Xia on the street.
Unexpectedly, we actually met.
Now, hearing what Master Xia's sister said, he guessed that Master Xia was most likely interested in him. He must have mentioned it at home, so the child remembered it.
Therefore, Rong Chuyue was extremely happy at this time.
[Brother! Are you stupid? Tell me you like her!] Xia Miaoyuan was so anxious that she raised her two little fists and hit the prince's back.
The prince made up his mind and thought, okay, he would just go for it today. After all, he couldn't miss Rong Chuyue again in this life.
The prince stood up straight, took a deep breath and said, "I am attracted to you! May I ask, Miss Rong, are you interested in me?"
At the same time, at the street corner behind them, a slender figure was hiding behind a pillar, with a pair of cunning eyes, staring at them without blinking.
"Haha, great! Rong Chuyue, that bitch, really had an affair with a man outside her family. How bold!"
