Feng Xin snorted coldly, "You think I'll forgive you just because you say so? This princess is not happy about it."
Rong Qingqing said seriously, "How about this, Princess? I'll treat you to something delicious, something you've never had before, okay?"
When food was mentioned, Feng Xin thought of her experience eating at the Marquis's residence yesterday, and she hadn't had much of an appetite for several meals.
"I haven't digested what I ate yesterday, so I don't feel like eating anything."
"Oh, is that so? I was originally planning to invite you to dinner at Wangchunlou Restaurant." Rong Qingqing said with a regretful expression.
Her interruption calmed Feng Xin down considerably. She glanced at her sideways and asked, "By the way, where were you thinking of going?"
Rong Qingqing truthfully replied, "To be honest, Your Highness, I own a clothing shop and would like to go and take a look at it." She paused, then added, "Would Your Highness like to come along?"
"What's so interesting about a clothing shop?" Feng Xin asked listlessly.
Rong Qingqing had already guessed this, so she said at the right time, "In that case, Your Highness, please go ahead. I have some trivial matters to attend to at my shop, so I will take my leave first."
Feng Xin frowned and said, "Rong Qingqing, I didn't tell you to leave, you can't leave."
Rong Qingqing lowered her head and said weakly, "Then, does the princess have any further instructions?"
"Um...where's Brother Jingrun?" Feng Xin asked softly, playing with her hair that fell over her shoulder.
Rong Qingqing glanced at her and replied, "In the Zhenfu Division."
Feng Xin's eyes lit up. "Then let's go to the Zhenfu Division to find him."
Rong Qingqing frowned and made up a story, "The Marquis doesn't allow women to go there." If you want to go, go by yourself, why drag me along? She didn't want to see Xie Jingrun's cold face.
"I can go anywhere," Feng Xin said nonchalantly, then grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the carriage, "You must come with me."
Rong Qingqing only had time to instruct Xiao Tao to take A Qi to the shop and have the embroiderer make him two sets of clothes before the carriage sped away.
Inside the carriage, Rong Qingqing gripped the handrail tightly, afraid that the carriage was going too fast and would throw her off.
Feng Xin scoffed, "Rong Qingqing, are you very dissatisfied with this princess?"
"I wouldn't dare!" Rong Qingqing said against her will.
Feng Xin suddenly leaned closer, scrutinizing her face. "How come I never noticed before that you're so beautiful?"
Rong Qingqing lifted her eyelids slightly, "Your Highness is too kind." But her heart sank. Could this spoiled princess have that kind of fetish?
Feng Xin scoffed, "You're really shameless."
"There is a bit of that," Rong Qingqing said dismissively.
Feng Xin paused, her gaze falling on her face again, and clicked her tongue, saying, "If you had been this interesting before, my brother might not have broken off the engagement."
Rong Qingqing chuckled, "Didn't the princess not know me before? How could she know that I was boring before?"
Feng Xin thought of what she had said yesterday and felt a little resentful. "You used to be so boring, it was a waste of my time to know you."
Rong Qingqing was too lazy to talk to her and closed her eyes to pretend to sleep.
Seeing that she was silent, Feng Xin continued to press, "Didn't you like my royal brother very much? Were you very sad and heartbroken when my royal brother rejected your engagement, and that's why you married into the Marquis of Weiyuan's family in a fit of anger?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing reluctantly opened her eyes. "If I tell you the truth, will you be angry?"
Feng Xin was taken aback. "Why would I be angry?"
“Because what I’m about to say will upset you.” Rong Qingqing raised an eyebrow.
Feng Xin sat up straight. "Am I the kind of petty person who holds grudges?"
Rong Qingqing glanced at her, thinking to herself, "Of course it's true."
“If the princess promises not to be angry or punish me, I will answer your previous questions.”
