Zhou Zhiquan blinked at his sister, afraid that she wouldn't understand, and quickly reminded her, "Sister, my second cousin said he's treating us today, so just order whatever you want."
Zhou Zhiquan's tone was full of joy, and Zhou Qiongyue was also very happy to hear her brother say that.
This Tianxianglou was not cheap, and she had been worried that she would order too much and her fifth brother wouldn't have enough money. But now that the person who would pay the money had arrived, she was quite happy.
Zhou Qiongyue quickly thanked the Second Prince Li Jingchen: "Thank you very much, second cousin."
Before the Second Prince could say anything, Xie Zixin beside him couldn't wait to reply, "You're welcome, cousin. It's only natural for His Highness to invite you and your cousin to dinner."
"Ms. Xie, please don't call me that. My sister and I have no relationship with you." Zhou Zhiquan was very unhappy. She was just a concubine, yet she had the nerve to call her sister cousin.
"Your Highness..." Xie Zixin secretly hated Zhou Zhiquan. She wanted to tear his mouth off. But after the cold war she had with the Second Prince some time ago, she now knew that she no longer had the capital to act so recklessly.
Xie Zixin could only look at the Second Prince pitifully and cried out in grievance, "Your Highness!"
The Second Prince was about to say something when he saw his cousin's face, which looked like she was enjoying the show. Knowing his cousin, if he dared to speak up for Xin'er, she might kick him out of the private room right then and there. Didn't he have any dignity?
The second prince could only change the words on the tip of his tongue, "Let's order first!"
"Okay!" Zhou Qiongyue agreed without hesitation.
Zhou Qiongyue was afraid that her second cousin would go back on his word, so she quickly ordered, "Waiter, bring up all of your Tianxianglou's signature dishes for us to try."
The waiter was of course happy, and quickly agreed and went downstairs to make the arrangements.
The Second Prince was not surprised to see his cousin like this, and there was even a hint of self-righteous doting in his eyes. When Xin'er dragged him here to disturb her, he had already prepared himself to be severely beaten by his cousin.
Zhou Zhiquan was stunned by his sister's generosity. He just wanted to make his second cousin bleed a little, but his sister wanted to make his second cousin bleed.
Zhou Zhiquan pulled his sister's sleeve embarrassedly, signaling her to take back a few items, as the signature dishes of Tianxianglou were really expensive.
"Don't worry, cousin! I brought enough silver before I went out." The second prince reassured his fifth cousin and pulled Xie Zixin to sit on the other side of the table.
"Thank you very much, second cousin." Zhou Qiongyue really didn't feel any guilt and sat down very calmly.
The main reason was that the second cousin had taken the initiative to offer it to her, and Xie Zixin next to him was looking at her provocatively! Anyway, she had figured out that the second cousin had a few silver coins in his bag, and they were all about to be coaxed away. It would be better to benefit yourself than to benefit others!
Xie Zixin was furious when she saw the Second Prince doting on Zhou Qiongyue. She pretended to look at the passersby below and took the wrong cup for tea.
The Second Prince didn't mind these things, instead he thought Xin'er was cute when she was careless sometimes. He took Xin'er's teacup and drank tea.
Zhou Qiongyue actually saw Xie Zixin's actions. If she were the original owner, she would definitely be furious. But Zhou Qiongyue was not the original owner. She had no feelings towards the Second Prince, who wanted to give all women a home.
So she just found Xie Zixin's show-off performance funny.
Zhou Zhiquan, who was still not aware of the situation, had a look of confusion on his face. He whispered to his sister, "Don't they both think it's dirty?"
Zhou Zhiquan thought that the teacup was covered with the other person's saliva, and he felt disgusted just thinking about it.
Zhou Qiongyue clapped her fifth brother's hand in amusement, "You don't have a wife yet, you don't understand."
"If it's like this with a wife, forget it!" Zhou Zhiquan felt that he had no expectations of getting married.
Zhou Zhiquan and Zhou Qiongyue thought they were speaking quietly, but the Second Prince and Xie Zixin across from them heard it clearly. The Second Prince simply felt embarrassed, while Xie Zixin secretly resented the two people across from them for their lack of understanding of romance.
Thinking of this, Xie Zixin suddenly realized a problem. Why didn't Zhou Qiongyue look like she liked the Second Prince? In her previous life, Zhou Qiongyue was hostile to all women who approached the Second Prince.
The more Xie Zixin thought about it, the more suspicious she became. She felt that she should test Zhou Qiongyue. Could it be that she had come back too?
Xie Zixin was a man of action, and she immediately thought of a good test content. "Miss Zhou, I had a dream last night. I dreamed that there would be a severe drought in Yuan'an two years later. Don't you think it's strange?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The second prince quickly scolded Xie Zixin. If such words were to get out, he would not be able to protect her.
Xie Zixin knew she was being reckless, but she just wanted to know if Zhou Qiongyue had returned. If she had, why did she dislike the Second Prince again? Was there something else she didn't know?
Xie Zixin pulled the Second Prince's sleeve and said coquettishly, "There are no outsiders here. It's just a dream."
Zhou Qiongyue was smiling casually now, her face full of curiosity. "Miss Xie is right. My brother and I won't tell anyone about this. Miss Xie, can you tell us about your dream in detail?"
Zhou Qiongyue was genuinely curious. Although she had read novels about this, they only touched on it briefly; she had never experienced anything like this. She wanted to know the real story so she could deal with it better when the time came.
So she was very kind to Xie Zixin at the moment, and didn't care about Xie Zixin's temptations towards her. Zhou Qiongyue felt that everything should be ranked behind living.
Xie Zixin looked at the curious Zhou Qiongyue. She was really sure that Zhou Qiongyue had returned. Otherwise, wouldn't ordinary people think she was talking nonsense when they heard such a thing?
It seemed like the Second Prince's reaction was correct. Zhou Qiongyue was so curious, she felt that she should have returned as well.
But Xie Zixin still wanted to confirm it. While she was talking about the severe drought she had seen in her previous life, she watched Zhou Qiongyue's reaction. Seeing that she was just curious the whole time, she became more certain.
Xie Zixin thought she had discovered Zhou Qiongyue's secret, and her mood instantly became very good. Zhou Qiongyue didn't know that Xie Zixin also guessed that she was reborn. Even if she knew, she wouldn't care about such things.
As long as Xie Zixin had a brain, she wouldn't dare tell anyone about this kind of thing. Even if she did, others would probably think she was crazy.
After Xie Zixin finished speaking, Zhou Qiongyue only casually commented, "It sounds quite real, but it's just a dream after all."
Only Zhou Zhiquan, who was standing next to him, understood his sister's reaction and believed it was true. He was also quite solemn. Generally speaking, if his sister believed it, it was likely to be true.
The second prince next to him also looked thoughtful, but he did not scold Xie Zixin again.
When the delicious food came, the two men ate carelessly, only Zhou Qiongyue and Xie Zixin were eating happily.
