When Fu Huaichu woke up, he found that his fever had subsided.

After he realized where he was, he immediately sat up and looked for Su Zhiruan.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Zhiruan enjoying the snack.

"Ruan Ruan, am I well now?" Fu Huaichu came down and sat beside her. The two of them gathered around the fire, the blazing red color shining on their faces. It was a reassuring atmosphere. "You should go to bed too. I'll stay here."

Su Zhiruan didn't say anything, just shook her head. She was concentrating on warming the snacks at the moment.

This was also taken down from the carriage by Fu Huaichu. After it got into the water, it quickly froze and became frozen together.

There are exquisite buns and sweet snacks.

"Eat something first, it will help you regain your strength," Su Zhiruan used chopsticks made from two wooden sticks to turn the food on the stone slab. These two things were obtained by her temporarily. The stone slab was very flat, and she happened to find it. She could use it as a frying pan.

Fu Huaichu sat beside her, his expression completely relaxed. He looked at Su Zhiruan, and then at her concentrating on fiddling with the things on the stone slab. At this moment, he felt an unprecedented peace and warmth. "Ruan Ruan, I suddenly realized that if we continue to live like this, will we become an ordinary reclusive couple?"

"Perhaps, this is not called seclusion for us." Su Zhiruan picked up a piece of sweet pastry from the stone slab, put it on another small flat stone slab and handed it to him. She raised her eyebrows, "Maybe this is the life of savages."

"Savage life..." Fu Huaichu took the small stone slab and the chopsticks she had prepared, but did not eat the snack. Instead, he passed it to Su Zhiruan's mouth, "You eat first."

Su Zhiruan did not refuse and took a light bite. The hot dessert was crispy and sweet, and the stuffing inside was full of floral fragrance. The sweetness bloomed in her mouth, and her lips and teeth were filled with the soft, glutinous and sweet dessert.

"If it's just the two of us living this kind of savage life, that would be nice." Fu Huaichu was in a good mood. He continued eating the snack that Su Zhiruan had bitten.

Su Zhiruan smiled helplessly, "I don't know what happened to Zhezhizheye. Will His Majesty and the Queen send someone to look for them?"

"Definitely." Fu Huaichu couldn't help but worry when he mentioned the child, but at this moment, he could only say this to comfort Su Zhiruan and himself.

Su Zhiruan also heated up some buns. Although the taste was not as good as those freshly cooked, they were both hungry at this time. After heating up a pot of hot water and having snacks and buns, they did not refuse and started eating one after another.

It was still dark until we finished eating. There was no sundial or timer here, so we could only wait for dawn.

After finishing the meal, Fu Huaichu took the initiative to clean up the dishes and said, "Go and have a nap. I'll stay here."

"Let's go together." Su Zhiruan stood up and walked in front of him.

Fu Huaichu was much taller than her. She poked the crown prince's chest and said, "Lower your head."

The man lowered his head obediently and put his face in front of her, "Like this?"

"...too close." Su Zhiruan originally wanted to see if his fever had subsided, but she didn't expect this person to move his face directly closer. If it was any closer, their cheeks would have been pressed tightly against each other.

This time, Fu Huaichu did not listen to her. He just smiled and let Su Zhiruan put her hand on his forehead.

"Much better." She took her hand back and took the slates from him in a serious tone. "Don't clean up yet. Let's go to bed."

Fu Huaichu's heart and eyes were full of her at this moment, and he listened to everything she said.

"Okay, let's go together."

After that, Fu Huaichu took the things in her hand and put them on the ground. He put his arm around her thin shoulders and sat on the makeshift bed made of cloak. "We agreed to sleep together, so let's sleep together."

As the flames flickered, the cave, which was originally small, was dyed red, and the two people's snow-white clothes were also dyed a bright red color.

Fu Huaichu suddenly smiled. He stretched out his hand and hooked her little finger. "Ruan Ruan, does this look like our wedding night?"

"A wedding night in the wild? You are indeed a wild couple." Su Zhiruan picked up the cup that was left when she fed Fu Huaichu water just now, "There are still cups here, and you can have a cup of wedding wine."

"We are a wild couple after all. If we can go back successfully this time, why don't you change your identity and stay by my side? How about that?" Fu Huaichu looked deeply into her eyes, with expectation in his eyes, waiting for her answer. On the surface, he was joking, but only he knew it best. At this moment, he was very sober and said it seriously. "For example...how about the identity of the Crown Princess?"

Su Zhiruan looked at him seriously. He had said this many times and had expressed it many times, both explicitly and implicitly.

Originally, she didn't really believe in this relationship, especially in the beginning when the two of them were hiding things from each other. She just wanted to complete the mission and didn't want to get involved in the palace.

Emperors have always been ruthless. She just wanted to protect herself and her children, and didn't want her and Zhezhizheye to enter this vortex.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

But Zhezhizheye are of royal blood after all. They are very smart and have a strong sense of belonging to their home.

Su Zhiruan originally thought that Fu Huaichu was just curious about her, or just had a temporary liking for her, but she never expected that he actually developed feelings for her without her knowing when.

She thought of what Fu Huaichu said to her when he left Sujia Village. She deliberately turned her eyes away from him and said, "Your Highness, have you forgotten that you wanted to take me back to be your concubine? Why do you do that now..."

Fu Huaichu now deeply regretted why he said this. At that time, he listened to Shadow's advice. In addition, Su Zhiruan was just a commoner, so he thought of giving her a position as a concubine and letting her stay by his side, as a way of repaying her for saving his life.

But he didn't expect that such a simple sentence would dig such a big hole for himself. What concubine or concubine? He just wanted her to be the Crown Princess!

"I was wrong at the beginning," Fu Huaichu took the initiative to step forward and hugged her tightly with all his strength. "After I left, I thought I would quickly forget this experience, but I didn't expect that I would become more and more uncomfortable after returning. I want someone to accompany me, but I don't want this person to be a completely unfamiliar noble lady from the capital, and I don't want any concubines. I just want the Crown Princess back."

"Then come with me, Crown Princess." Fu Huaichu still hugged her tightly.

Now, after three years of living like a walking corpse, he has no interest in other women and doesn't even want to look at them. Every time someone mentions that he should marry a princess, he will unconsciously compare himself with Su Zhiruan in his mind.

And in the end, in his heart, she was the winner every time.

Never lost.
