She felt her heart beating so hard that it seemed like it was going to jump out of her chest.
I must have just run too fast.
The red-robed man slowly narrowed his eyes, which were almost enchanting, and looked at her with a smile, "Did you go the wrong way, girl?"
Jiuer shook her head, pursed her lips which seemed suddenly a little dry, and took out the jelly that she had carefully preserved in her hand.
"This one for you is made from an exotic flower. It's delicious."
The man glanced at the jelly in her hand and looked at her with a smile.
He stood up slowly, like an elegant and noble Persian cat, exuding a seductive and alluring aura.
He walked towards Jiuer step by step, and Jiuer felt the difficulty breathing again.
The man took the bowl of jelly from Jiuer and slowly scooped a spoonful into his mouth. "It tastes... really good."
Jiuer stared at his movements and felt that the rosy lips and jet-black hair of the person in front of her were... exceptionally... charming.
Jiuer shook her head, closed her eyes and then opened them again, and met the man's somewhat teasing eyes.
One could even see an unfathomable smile in his light-colored eyes, a bit cynical, yet domineering that was hard to underestimate.
Strictly speaking, there is a trace of strange evil spirit that is hard to tell where.
This feeling was not unfamiliar. Jiuer felt that she had seen someone like Poppy, who was bewitching and extremely dangerous.
In short, Jiuer's extraordinary instinct and judgment told her that this man was definitely not a good person.
The man smiled faintly with his handsome thin lips, "What are you looking at, girl? Why are you looking at it so... weirdly."
Jiuer rubbed her eyes and said, "It's dark outside, otherwise the light in the room would be so bright that it would dazzle me."
The man chuckled but didn't expose her.
"Since it's dark outside, it must be getting late. You'd better leave and go home early, young lady."
Jiuer pulled over a soft cushion that was easily available on the ground and sat down on it.
"No. I can see Su Jingxing often here. I live here."
"Heh," the man grinned, "We don't know each other..."
"Stop pretending, Boss Chu. You've already eaten the jelly I bought for you, and you're still trying to deny your debt?"
The man choked and the corners of his mouth twitched.
He simply dragged a cushion and sat down in front of her, poured her a cup of hot water, and pushed the steaming cakes next to her.
Jiuer was also familiar with the process, drinking water and eating cakes, and was very used to it.
After all, the other party placed the water and pastries in the place where she was most familiar with them, so she could just reach out and get them.
The man asked her, "How did you recognize me?"
Jiuer looked at him stupidly, "You didn't hide it from me on purpose."
The man said with relief, "You have some good eyesight."
Jiuer ate and drank enough, and her breathing became normal. She looked at the person in front of her curiously.
"You are so amazing. When you disguised yourself as Boss Chu, you were so skilled. From the appearance to the spirit, you looked exactly like a weak and elegant man who has been bedridden for many years and is about to die~"
He clicked his tongue again, "So this is what you really look like. Quite pleasing to the eye."
The man casually handed her a clean handkerchief to wipe her hands, and asked with a slight smile, "Really? How's that compared to your Su Jingxing?"
"That cannot be compared. Su Jingxing is my destined husband, how can anyone else compare to him." Jiuer insisted that Su Jingxing was the best.
"Very good, then you can leave after you finish eating. I can save myself the trouble of not seeing it."
Jiuer looked at him with her eyes curved and a sweet smile on her face.
The man snorted, turned his head away from her, and drank his tea.
Jiuer shamelessly moved over and sat down next to him.
Pulling his sleeve affectionately, "Beautiful sister, please let me go. Where can I go when you are here?"
"Puff!" The man almost spit out the tea he had just taken. "What did you call me?"
He tapped her forehead. "You are so silly. Your eyesight is not working well. Can't you tell the difference between men and women?"
Jiuer thought to herself, Tsk, you still don’t admit it.
There's nothing wrong with admitting this.
She just never exposed him.
Otherwise, why did she agree to give him a ride in the first place?
Also, if she hadn't known from the beginning that "Boss Chu" and "Qian Qian" were the same person and that Boss Chu was not sick at all, she would have really prepared cold food for a patient.
Forget it, considering that he is her bread and butter, if he doesn't acknowledge her, she will just pretend not to know.
"Oh, I'm dazzled. You're pretty, and you're wearing bright red clothes like a butterfly. I thought you were the beautiful sister I know~"
The man smiled with a fake smile, "What do you mean by like a butterfly? Is there a way to describe a man like that? Be careful or I'll punish you."
Jiuer raised her head and smiled shamelessly, "Then tell me what your name is? Is it Chu Qing? Or not? If you don't tell me, I can only call you Butterfly from now on." She looked innocent.
"Little girl, since you asked, I will tell you. But you have to know that not everyone can see my true face and know my real name. Now that I have told you, you must not forget it. Remember it well."
Jiuer felt that he sounded a bit calm and composed, and asked curiously, "How can I not even remember a person's name? Butterfly, what's your name?"
"Duan Rong. Remember this."
Jiuer blinked and smiled, "Remember, the butterfly's name is Duan Rong."
Duan Rong reached out and gently pinched her face, threatening, "Can you remove the butterfly?"
"Okay, Butterfly." Jiuer was not afraid.
Duan Rong sighed, "What an enemy."
Jiuer was thinking that if she met anyone in the future, it would be because the person in front of her was in disguise.
Besides, the eldest princess didn't dare to delay because the eldest prince said he had important matters to discuss.
When it was getting dark, she took advantage of not being able to see clearly and dressed up as a maid, and was "ordered" to bring a kind of fresh fruit to the eldest prince.
In order to avoid suspicion, maids from other princes' palaces also went to deliver the gifts in the name of the eldest princess.
She said that the prince consort had obtained some fresh fruits, which she found delicious, so she sent some to all the nephews.
The eldest princess dressed up as a nanny and went to the eldest prince's study to discuss matters before she took off the cloak she was wearing, which she said was to block the wind but was actually to hide her true appearance and figure.
After pulling down her cloak, the princess couldn't wait to ask, "What's the matter? The messenger said you were in a hurry."
Under the light, the eldest prince's eyes were as deep as black holes.
After a long while, he said solemnly, "Auntie, I have a suspect for the person who has been hiding in the dark throughout the dynasties of Cangyu, the 'Dark Emperor' who trained and managed all the secret agents of Cangyu."
The eldest princess froze and her breath was choked for a moment.
Dark Emperor!
