Despite her inner reluctance, Chu Caiwei still sat down next to Shang Wei. Shang Wei smiled and proudly raised his glass to toast Chu Caiwei.
At that moment, the pleasure boat was bustling with activity, with singing girls dancing and singing, and the music was melodious. However, Shang Wei, after just a few drinks, began to feel dizzy and lost in thought. Taking advantage of the alcohol, his restless hand sneaked under the table towards Chu Caiwei's thigh, covering it without hesitation.
Chu Caiwei's face suddenly changed drastically, and a strong feeling of nausea washed over her. She was shaking with rage, and just as she was about to explode in anger, she suddenly caught sight of Crown Prince Chu Chengli's dark eyes, peering past the dancing singers and locking onto her like a hawk. Those eyes, filled with majesty and coldness, were chilling.
Crown Princess Li Jingshu also smiled and looked at Chu Caiwei, her eyes full of contempt...
Chu Caiwei's face instantly hardened. She bit her lower lip tightly, suppressing the anger in her heart and moving her body to the side. Who knew that Shang Wei, seeing that Chu Caiwei chose to endure it, became even more aggressive and pressed closer. Chu Caiwei could even clearly smell the strong smell of sweat emanating from his body.
Chu Caiwei had no choice but to look at the ugly maid standing behind her for help. Seeing this, the maid immediately lowered her head and quickly walked to Chu Caiwei's side, saying softly: "Eighth Princess! General Shang is a rare talent. Come, Eighth Princess, please toast General Shang with a glass of wine."
After saying that, the ugly maid first filled the wine glass in front of the Eighth Princess with wine, and then filled Shang Wei's glass as well.
The Eighth Princess raised her eyes suspiciously, gazing at the ugly maidservant before her. The maidservant quickly winked at her and said, "Eighth Princess! What are you still staring at? Come on, toast with General Shang!"
At this moment, Shang Wei's face had already flushed with excitement. He laughed heartily, "Hahahahahaha, Eighth Princess! I didn't expect your maid to be so tactful!"
The Eighth Princess raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes gleaming with charm. She held her wine glass and gently clinked it against Shang Wei's, making a crisp sound. Then, she parted her red lips and let out a silvery laugh: "General Shang! My brother, the Crown Prince, will need your care in the future!" Her voice was gentle and melodious, moving and touching.
Shang Wei laughed heartily and responded: "Hahahaha, don't worry, Eighth Princess! From now on, we are a family! We should stick together and support each other! Come on, cheers!" After that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, showing his heroic spirit.
However, just as Shang Wei set down his glass, his gaze was drawn to someone. The man had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a face as beautiful as jade, and an elegant demeanor, like an immortal descended to earth. Shang Wei stared at him, transfixed, and thought to himself, "Oh my God! How could I not have noticed the prince was so handsome before? He's even more beautiful than a woman!"
The corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, as if he was trying hard to hide his inner excitement, but he couldn't completely control his emotions. The prince sitting opposite him was so stunning that he couldn't help but be overwhelmed by him.
Shang Wei shook his head vigorously, trying to clear his head, but the thoughts in his mind only grew stronger: What had happened today? Why was he so eager to be close to the Crown Prince... He even wanted to hold the noble Crown Prince tightly in his arms and love him to his heart's content!
Shang Wei felt as if a monstrous beast was roaring within him. He tried desperately to hold back, but ultimately, he was unable to resist the urge. He stood up uncontrollably, the wine jug in his right hand and the wine glass in his left, and walked straight towards the prince.
"Your Highness! Come, come, come, I offer you a toast!" Shang Wei's voice was a little hoarse, and his heart felt like it was being scratched by a naughty kitten, and the evil fire that burned more and more fiercely...
The prince slowly raised his wine glass, a gentle smile still on his face, and gently clinked it with Shang Wei's glass. He asked in a low voice: "General Shang, I wonder if this prince's sister is to your liking?"
The corners of Shang Wei's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a wicked smile: "Hehehehe... To be honest with you, Prince, I think... you are more to my liking!"
Upon hearing this, the prince's face instantly hardened, and he cursed inwardly: "What a rude and impolite person! His words are so vulgar, they are simply unbearable to listen to! If it weren't for his father, this unrefined person would not be worthy of drinking with this prince!"
Shang Wei looked at the prince in silence, secretly sighing in his heart: This prince before him is truly as bright and flawless as the bright moon, and his temperament is as elegant as a delicate orchid and a jade tree! He is simply the white moonlight in his heart, the apple of his eye! He couldn't help but want to be closer to this perfect person.
However, at this moment, Crown Princess Li Jingshu happened to sit next to the Crown Prince, which made Shang Wei very unhappy. She was simply a stumbling block between them!
Shang Wei then bluntly said to Li Jingshu, "Crown Princess! The Eighth Princess has something to discuss with you!" Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince nodded slightly in agreement. Li Jingshu had no choice but to stand, stepping past the dancing girls, and sit down next to the Eighth Princess.
At this time, Shang Wei seemed to have lost his mind, and his tongue began to murmur: "If Your Highness does not mind, I... I would like to sit with you." After saying these words, Shang Wei couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but he was embarrassed to take back what he had just said.
The prince frowned slightly after hearing what Shang Wei said, but his expression quickly returned to normal. He smiled gently and said, "General Shang, there's no need to be so reserved. Please take a seat."
