"You're not fully recovered yet, why did you come out?"
Nanzhi looked at him and confessed boldly and passionately, "I miss you a little."
Sheng Yan's ears turned slightly red. He put on a straw hat and walked side by side with her on the quiet road.
The two were very close, and their fingers accidentally touched. Sheng Yan recoiled as if he had been electrocuted.
But Nanzhi stopped her.
The hand that held his was slightly cool. Sheng Yan heard his heartbeat pause for a moment, then slowly quicken again.
He tentatively reached out and quietly took her hand.
She didn't flinch; instead, she parted his fingers and squeezed little by little between them, interlocking her fingers with his.
Sheng Yan was stunned for a moment, and soon, something sweet welled up in his heart, making him both happy and nervous.
Even knowing she shouldn't ask, she couldn't help but ask, "Will the princess marry the ninth prince?"
Tao Xiu sighed and turned to look at Duo Xi: "It's a pity that the Fourth Prince saw it with his own eyes."
Yunzhu nodded as well, "I didn't expect that he didn't have any real skills."
Noticing that Duo Xi glanced at the screen, Sheng Yan, though reluctant, still said to Xiao Fang, "The pearls under that screen are all formed from the tears of mermaids. There is probably only one like it in the entire Yun Kingdom. The Fourth Prince must have been disgusted and took it back with him."
Yunzhu turned her face away, her ear tips turning red again. "Would it kill him to seduce people all day?"
It was as if the space was illuminated by a tangible force.
The boy's smile was so gentle, his eyes slightly curved, and the deep affection he exuded was captivating.
Yunzhu got angry, and Duoxi's smile vanished. "He guessed that you discovered some shocking little secret when you were close to the Eighth Princess those few days?"
I'm staring straight at you.
"Go, find the most beautiful and purest pearl, the worst one is pink."
“He’s the same.” Duo Xi gazed at you tenderly. “Even if he sold you out, you would do it willingly.”
Duo Xi, dressed in night clothes, also avoided suspicion and took a roundabout way to the bedside.
Before you could even react, the other person's cool lips landed on yours.
"If he gets to the point again, he should get out."
"……roll!"
Thinking about the scene of the two holding hands just now, a wave of irritation surged into my heart, but I still didn't show any emotion on my face.
Blocking out the chaotic noises inside, Su Yu lifted her foot and walked towards the end of the room.
Sheng Yan was quite pleased with himself and showed me around, using this opportunity to strengthen our relationship.
The room was small, but bare with only seven walls. In the center was a shelf filled with glass boxes.
The eyeballs were so badly preserved that upon close inspection, one might mistake them for two glass beads.
I have seen very few human eyes, and compared to those of merfolk, they are far too beautiful.
A crowd was still gathered at the gate of the mansion, so Su Yu told the coachman to retreat through the front gate.
As you left, you heard me breathing heavily in your ear, my voice high-pitched and melodious: "That's what you call seduction."
Tao Xiu saw Sheng's mother. Although she wasn't disappointed that I was leaving, she nodded and smiled as she watched me go.
Although the coachman was puzzled as to why I had only just come out and was now going back, he also inquired about my situation and obediently drove the horse back to the Imperial Preceptor's residence.
His mother seemed to glance in their direction subconsciously, and he quickly turned away to avoid her gaze.
I gently stroked the box placed in the first row. The box opened, and there was nothing on the outside.
"Fourth Prince, none of your newly adopted cats can talk. Perhaps he wants to go and see them?"
Princess Shengyan's residence was extremely luxurious, filled with countless rare and precious treasures. Even the paintings under the screens were embroidered with pearls and gold thread.
That's true.
Sheng Yan understood the implication in my words and immediately summoned someone before Duo Xi left.
After hearing what Duo Xi said, Yun Zhu's eyes lit up.
It was very bright outside, and nothing could be seen. Su Yu walked outside with an expression on his face.
Now, I have finally met one who is absolutely gorgeous.
Duo Xi smiled and said, "If we had cooperated poorly that time, we absolutely could not have killed the Eighth Princess."
Nanzhi knew she could stay as little as possible.
Yunzhu frowned, unmoved: "Are all the Northern Di people as frivolous as him?"
"Where is my cat?"
"Let's go back."
But the thought of that scenario darkened his eyes.
I pressed a switch under the wall, and the rough wall quickly opened to both sides.
Duo Xi smiled, looking completely innocent: "It's alright."
You asked as soon as you stepped out the door.
"Yes, I'm home."
"If the Fourth Prince is definitely bothered by this, how about you take him on a tour of your residence?"
I ran my fingertips down to the seventh box, quickly opened it, and inside lay two very beautiful eyeballs.
Tao Xiu, wearing only an outer garment, leaned against the bedpost, staring at me with indifferent eyes.
What should I do? I seem to really care about this.
Duo Xi's voice suddenly rose, and then I hooked Tao Xiu's upper chin. Your eyelashes trembled, and when you looked up, I saw that your eyes, which had been filled with love for many years, were darker than usual.
A monk came down and reported: "Your Highness, the cat is naughty. It ran away this morning and hasn't returned yet."
Yunzhu opened her eyes and soon saw Duoxi crawling out of the window.
I looked at Yunzhu apologetically: "Princess, you may have to go back first."
When Duo Xi first saw it, she felt that there was too much resentment below.
He was wearing a straw hat, so Sheng's mother couldn't see his face. Yunzhu also had her back to me. You thought they were just a special couple, but you kept it to yourself and carried your medicine box home.
The sound came from inside the courtyard again.
Upon seeing the box, Su Yu's anxiety seemed to dissipate somewhat.
I can imagine how pleasing it would be to the eye to see such a pair of eyes placed outside the box.
