Li Xiaochen didn't hold Lin Yuxin's other hand; he placed it behind his back, clenched it, and then let go.
He suddenly realized that this girl's ability to annoy people had returned!
Should he hold off on requesting an imperial decree for marriage, so that he can live a few more days?
"Let's go! Hurry up and take me home, it's almost dinner time! If I get home late, my mother will nag me again."
Lin Yuxin was in a very good mood because she didn't give away the jewelry. She took Li Xiaochen's hand and walked out of the mansion.
Li Xiaochen looked at the two holding hands, his lips curled up, and he seemed much gentler.
Along the way, the servants of the Prince's mansion watched the two holding hands, all with expressions of "I knew it" and "auntie smiles" as they looked at this perfect couple. From now on, the Prince's mansion would have a mistress.
The two boarded the Prince's carriage and headed towards the Zhao residence.
Li Xiaochen held Lin Yuxin's hand tightly the whole time, and even after the carriage stopped, he still hadn't let go.
"Your Highness, we have arrived at the Zhao residence!"
The coachman's voice came from outside.
Li Xiaochen frowned, his mood was not good.
Lin Yuxin looked at him like that! She found it amusing.
"What? You can't bear to part with it?"
"Um!"
Li Xiaochen held Lin Yuxin's hand and played with it in his hand.
Lin Yuxin's hands were soft and I was tiny in hers, making Li Xiaochen love me so much.
Lin Yuxin felt itchy from his touch and unconsciously tried to pull her hand back, but couldn't. Lin Yuxin was speechless for a moment.
Why does Li Xiaochen become so clingy when she's in love? Where's her aloof, handsome boyfriend? Where's her cool, domineering prince? Where did they all go?
"That's enough, I have to go back."
Lin Yuxin looked at Li Xiaochen, who had a blank expression, and said...
"Lin Yuxin, you don't even respect me, and you even yelled at me!"
Li Xiaochen looked at Lin Yuxin with a resentful expression, as if Lin Yuxin had done something to betray him.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuxin raised her other hand, placed it in front of Li Xiaochen, and slowly clenched it, making a "cluck cluck!" sound.
"If you don't let go by the time I count to three, you're not allowed to speak to me for ten days!"
Lin Yuxin narrowed her eyes and warned in a low voice.
Li Xiaochen remained silent for three seconds before letting go of Lin Yuxin's hand; this was a risk he couldn't take.
Lin Yuxin withdrew her hand, straightened her clothes, and looked at Li Xiaochen seriously, saying:
"I'll be a bit busy these three days. Before I leave, I need to take care of things at the manor and get my maternal grandfather and uncle's medicine sorted out. You can come pick me up in three days."
"Hmm! Do you need any help?"
Li Xiaochen nodded in agreement.
"No need, I can manage on my own, it's not a big deal."
Lin Yuxin waved her hand dismissively.
"Okay, I'm going now. If my mother sees me, I'll definitely get a scolding again."
As Lin Yuxin was about to get out of the car, Li Xiaochen grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
Caught off guard, Lin Yuxin was pulled backward by a force and fell into a warm embrace the next second.
"Xin Xin just left like that?"
Li Xiaochen pulled Lin Yuxin into his arms, bringing his face close to her cheek, and said something that sounded incredibly aggrieved.
[Oh my god, who taught this man to act all cute and coquettish?! Who can resist this?!]
Looking at the man in front of her, it would be a lie to say that Lin Yuxin was not moved. Although she had only realized her feelings for him today, she was not at the point where she couldn't live without him, so she was always able to stay clear-headed.
But now this man is cheating. He's supposed to be aloof and cold, but now he's staring at her with those innocent and aggrieved eyes, like a little puppy about to be abandoned, making her feel sorry for him.
"What else do you want?"
Lin Yuxin looked at Li Xiaochen with amusement and asked softly.
What does Xin Xin say?
Li Xiaochen whispered, his face close to Lin Yuxin's.
"Li Xiaochen, do you know? Your public image has been ruined!"
Lin Yuxin raised her hand and pinched Li Xiaochen's face, teasing him with a smile.
Li Xiaochen didn't mind her making fun of him, and just stared at her expectantly. Although he didn't know what she meant by "persona," it didn't stop him from asking her for some perks.
Lin Yuxin gently raised her chin and pressed her lips to his, a fleeting touch.
Then, before Li Xiaochen could react, she suddenly stood up and backed away, picked up the Shangfang sword that had been abandoned all afternoon, jumped off the carriage, and did it all in one go, afraid that if she was a second late, she would be hugged and kissed for a long time.
Unfortunately, just as Lin Yuxin got off the carriage, she saw Lin Shaoyang standing at the door, ready to return to his residence!
"...!"
[Oh no! I got caught dating! What do I do? Need help urgently!]
Lin Yuxin felt that if there were a crack in the ground, she could disappear in an instant!
"Hehe! Second brother, you're back!"
Lin Yuxin greeted him with an awkward laugh.
"...What's this?"
Lin Shaoyang overheard his sister talking about dating. Although her words sounded strange, they weren't hard to understand.
He glanced at the Regent's carriage again, and a chilling thought suddenly crept into his mind!
"Oh! We just came from the palace. The prince brought me back! Let's go! Second brother, I'm starving!"
Lin Yuxin gave a vague answer, then pulled on her second brother's sleeve and walked inside.
Lin Shaoyang was forced to leave, so he didn't ask her about her relationship with the prince.
Li Xiaochen watched from behind the curtain as Lin Yuxin tugged at Lin Shaoyang's sleeve, his eyes filled with a deep, unsettling gaze.
After a long while, he regained his icy demeanor, devoid of any emotion, and spoke in a cold voice:
"Leng Han! Take this inside to her!"
He then looked at the food box placed to the side.
"yes!"
Leng Han suddenly appeared, carrying a food box, and disappeared from the spot.
"To the palace!"
