Chapter 66 Tonight He Owns Two Moons
When passing by the wonton stall, Xiao Linyuan stopped and asked her, "I'm hungry, how about you?"
"I'm a little hungry too."
The two smiled at each other and walked into the wonton shop hand in hand.
Song Zijin was a little surprised. He hadn't been here for just a few days, but how come the shop had more than doubled in size?
Previously, you could only pay and take your food away or eat on the roadside, but now you can dine in the restaurant.
While Xiao Linyuan was out, she went to the counter and asked, "Auntie, did you buy the shop next door?"
The old lady said mysteriously, "We didn't buy it. A distinguished guest came here a while ago."
Noble person?
"The nobleman said his wife loves our wontons. She thought it would be a shame to take the wontons home, as they would taste worse. So, the nobleman paid several hundred taels of silver, bought the shop next door, and lent it to us so his wife could sit in our shop and eat wontons in the future."
"Just give it to you for free?"
"The nobleman said he didn't need the money, and we felt bad about it, so he finally asked us not to take the money for his wontons."
At this time, Xiao Linyuan came back after washing his hands and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Song Zijin told him what he had just heard.
"Is there really such a kind person in this world? Since she is the wife of a nobleman, she must also be a nobleman. Why would she come to this small shop to eat?"
Xiao Linyuan took a sip of tea and said calmly, "I like it, that's all. There's no need to explain it."
"That's right~ Mainly because the wontons here are so delicious. I like them too. You know, I didn't really like noodles before."
Xiao Linyuan's lips curled up, "Then I'll hire them both back to the palace and make wontons for you every day?"
"No." Song Zijin refused directly.
"That noble man specially rented the shop, and it's only been open for one day, and you want to make his wife unable to eat. Besides, if she eats it every day, she will get tired of it."
"I'll listen to you. We'll come over to eat next time."
Xiao Linyuan took a sip of tea and was in a good mood.
The reasons for the little thing's refusal were all very reasonable, without mentioning status or anything like that. She was also slowly trying to accept him in her heart, right?
The old man brought freshly cooked wontons from the kitchen, said a few auspicious words, and then left with a smile.
The old lady saw something was wrong and quickly chased him to the kitchen, "Old man, why are you laughing so happily?"
"Don't you see? The man in that old couple is the noble one!"
The old lady was confused. "What? Isn't the noble man very young?"
"You are so short-sighted, old woman. The eyes of the noble man show that he is capable of great things. There are only a few such people in the whole capital. I, an old man, have eyes as sharp as a peacock!"
The old lady didn't understand: "Then the woman opposite must be the nobleman's wife? Why are they dressed as an old couple?"
"You don't understand the tastes of young people."
…
The wonton shop is very close to the clinic, less than a cup of tea's walk away.
Xiao Linyuan cautiously held Song Zijin in his arms and looked around casually. He always felt that someone was watching them.
"What's wrong?" Song Zijin became nervous.
"It's not safe for you to be here alone. Hurry up and pack your things, and let's go back home."
"Oh, okay!" Song Zijin valued his life the most, so he didn't dare to delay and left after taking the things.
——
After obtaining Fuwu, Song Zijin prepared the medicine to be used in the next three months overnight.
He dawdled until almost midnight before coming out of the east wing.
Seeing that the lights in the main house were off, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After she stretched, she was startled by a sudden sound.
"Are you finally done?"
Song Zijin jumped back, his back pressed tightly against the wall. "Your Highness? Why are you scaring people here in the middle of the night?"
"You know, when Snowball gets frightened and his fur explodes, he does exactly the same thing as you do right now."
"...Am I as fat as a snowball?" Song Zijin was dissatisfied.
"If you had eaten half as much as he does, you wouldn't be so thin."
"..." Song Zijin was speechless.
Who can have a big appetite like Xuetuanzi? He is hungry eight out of twelve hours a day.
"The prince was saying that when Xuetuanzi first arrived, he was so cute and pretty, but now he has turned into a fat cat and can't even catch a mouse."
Xiao Linyuan stood up and walked over to hold her hand, but she avoided him.
"Why are you calling me Prince again? Your little head only remembers those medicinal herbs, can't you remember the word 'Lingzhi'?"
Song Zijin pretended not to hear and lowered her head to play with her fingers.
Xiao Linyuan sighed softly. At this point, he still didn't deserve the title?
He tried to pull her hand again, "Let's go back to the house and ask Xuetuanzi if he can beat the mouse."
Song Zijin didn't move, trying to fool him: "It's so late, I'm going back to the west room to sleep, I'll ask you tomorrow..."
"Come sleep with me, I can't sleep without you."
"The third time." Song Zijin murmured.
Xiao Linyuan was puzzled: "What do you mean the third time?"
"This is the third time Your Majesty has acted like a spoiled child in front of me."
This time it was Xiao Linyuan's turn to blush. After staying in bed for several months, his skin had become much whiter, and now with a blush on it, he looked even more abstinent.
"It's not shameful to show your weak side in front of the woman you like," he said frankly.
Just like Snowball would expose its belly in front of him, it is a sign of trust and also a desire to win the favor of its owner and let the owner come over and rub its little belly with his own hands.
Even if you are a tough guy, there are people who want to please you.
"Come with me, okay?" Xiao Linyuan pleaded again.
Song Zijin felt that he must be dazzled, otherwise how could he see humility in the eyes of King Jinyue, who was second only to the emperor?
The moonlight flickered in his eyes, like stars falling into the deep sea.
A wave of passion came over her, wrapped her tightly around it, and made her dizzy.
She could clearly feel his dry palms gradually getting sweaty, but he refused to let go, as if as long as he clenched his hands, her hands would never slip through his fingers again.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a little confident.
The tiny seed grew rapidly under the gentle embrace, and soon occupied a place in her empty heart.
Her eyebrows curved into crescents, and even the passing wind became gentle.
"Okay." She replied softly, "But you can't touch me. Last night... I was so reckless. I'm still hurt."
Xiao Linyuan walked forward holding the hand of his beloved girl, and his heart became full and lively because of her.
The night was as dark as ink, but at this moment it seemed as if someone was setting off countless fireworks around, lighting up the entire world.
Tonight he has two moons.
One hanging in the sky.
One hidden in the heart.
