Chapter 290: The Lady of the Marquisate vs. the Younger Prince 33
The guards regretted it a long time ago!
Miss Zhao came to bring cakes to His Highness under the pretext of being the Queen, and he let her in, thinking that it would be a good thing for her. Later, when he saw that His Highness disliked Miss Zhao, he wanted to go in and drag Miss Zhao out.
"Yes, yes, I will arrange it right away. Miss Zhao, please go in."
Zhao Baozhen was eating with great relish, and was completely unwilling to move. She glared at the Third Prince in dissatisfaction and muttered:
"Your Highness, why are you so stingy? Sister Ji didn't say anything, why do you have to chase me away? I've been waiting for you here for many days, and I finally got to see you, I won't leave!"
The guards were reluctant to attack Miss Zhao, so they asked for help from Miss Shiqin who was also guarding the door.
Shiqin had disliked Zhao Baozhen for a long time. She knew that what she did was wrong, but she still didn't want other women to get close to the Third Prince. After all, she was on the side of her own eldest daughter.
Shiqin entered the room and bowed respectfully to Zhao Baozhen, "I'm sorry, Miss Zhao, but I dare not disobey your Highness' order."
Zhao Baozhen was dragged out by Shiqin with great reluctance. The personal guards arranged a private room farthest away from His Highness for Zhao Baozhen and sent someone to keep an eye on her to prevent her from disturbing His Highness again.
Jing Yu drove his personal guards and Shiqin to the next door. At this time and place, only he and Sister Huan were left.
He can do whatever he wants!
Ji Yunhuan knew that the time had come. If she missed this opportunity, she would not know when she would have another chance to open her heart to Jing Yu.
She lowered her head and took a sip of the fruit wine. It was refreshing and cool, with a hint of sweetness, which was her favorite taste.
"In fact, it's okay for Miss Zhao to be here. It's just a matter of writing a contract. It's not a big deal. I naturally trust Your Highness, and Your Highness won't harm me."
"I think Miss Zhao and Your Highness are a good match, and Your Highness is also of marriageable age..."
Jing Yu stood up and walked around Ji Yunhuan. His tall body blocked the afterglow of the setting sun that was coming in through the window. His cheeks were angular and his expression was unclear whether he was happy or angry. He rudely interrupted Ji Yunhuan's words.
"Sister Huan, do you really want me to get married?"
Ji Yunhuan couldn't help but shrink back. The boy she watched grow up finally grew into a man!
The room seemed to darken in an instant. There were too many things hidden in those deep eyes. Ji Yunhuan subconsciously avoided Jing Yu's gaze and whispered:
"Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. Your Highness will get married sooner or later. Does it matter what I think?"
[If Jingyu can find someone who shares his feelings with him and get married, I should be happy for him, but why do I feel so sad?]
Jing Yu approached Ji Yunhuan and forced her to look into his eyes. "Of course it's important! Sister Huan, look at me and tell me, are you happy after getting married? If you could do it all over again, would you still marry Liang Wanzhou?"
There were tears in Ji Yunhuan's eyes, but she was stubborn and refused to let them fall.
"Everyone in the capital knows that I'm not doing well. Since the day of my wedding, everyone in the capital has been laughing at me. Jing Yu, I beg you, don't ask anymore."
Ji Yunhuan slowly closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she was the gentle and sensible good sister again, and she advised softly:
"Men are different after all. His Majesty will allow you to attend court and govern the country only after you get married. You are already that old, you cannot be willful."
Jing Yu insisted on being willful. He placed his hands on the armrests, trapping Sister Huan so that she had nowhere to escape. He saw the panic in Sister Huan's eyes and heard her rapid heartbeat.
"I know you don't like Liang Wanzhou. A fool like him is not worthy of you. You married him only because of the engagement we made since childhood."
"Sister Huan, I have liked following you since I was a kid. I don't know when I fell in love with you. It's not the love a brother has for a sister, nor the admiration a student has for a teacher, nor the love between friends. It's the kind of love between a man and a woman. Huan, I love you!"
Ji Yunhuan's scalp tingled after hearing this. Even though she already knew Jing Yu's little thoughts, she was still shocked to hear him say it himself!
So this is love, so hot, so desperate, like a raging fire, roaring madly to break through all the shackles of this world.
Ji Yunhuan pushed Jing Yu away violently, his eyes full of shock, "No... no... Jing Yu, it's not like that, you just... just haven't seen a better woman, so you were dazzled for a moment..."
Ji Yunhuan retreated in panic, and Jing Yu chased after him with big strides, until they retreated to the corner of the wall, with nowhere to retreat.
"Huan'er, you don't think that way in your heart. I want to hear you say it yourself. You like me too, right?"
Ji Yunhuan shook her head vigorously, and the tears she had been holding back for a long time finally fell, "No... I can't like you!"
Jing Yu panicked. He gently wiped Ji Yunhuan's tears and said with a guilty look on his face: "I'm sorry, Sister Huan, I shouldn't have forced you. I was too anxious. Don't cry. Ah Yu was wrong. Don't be angry, okay?"
Ji Yunhuan leaned on Jing Yu and cried even harder, "You are a prince, you should marry a good girl with a clean background instead of hanging out with me. I'm already married, what's the point of you liking me?"
"Ah Yu, listen up and don't waste your time on me. I'm already like this, why should I delay you? What's the use of loving each other? After all, we are not destined to be together. Go away, go away!"
Jing Yu hugged Ji Yunhuan even tighter. He used up almost all his courage in his life and lowered his head to kiss her.
The moment their lips touched, it was as if a firework exploded in his mind, or as if he had tasted the best wine in the world. Jing Yu felt that he might be crazy, he actually kissed Sister Huan forcibly!
Ji Yunhuan widened her eyes. In her past life or present life, she had never been kissed like this before.
Liang Wanzhou didn't touch her before, but now she hates him. The most intimate time between them should be when they held the same wedding silk on their wedding day.
Everything went according to plan, except for Wan Niang who was carried into the house. In her memory, that wedding was just a sea of red, a blinding red like blood.
Ji Yunhuan held her breath, her face flushed red, all her messy thoughts faded away, leaving only the person in front of her.
The boundless love grew more and more intense as they kissed each other. Ji Yunhuan's whole body went limp, and she fell into Jing Yu's arms, letting out a slight moan.
She was so embarrassed that at this moment she finally understood the voice coming from the west wing.
I only felt disgust before, but now I can taste a hint of it. If two people are in love with each other, it can be a joyful thing in the world.
"Knock, knock, knock!" There was an inopportune knock on the door.
The guard stood at the door and shouted respectfully, "Your Highness, the Queen has sent someone to ask when Your Highness will return to the palace. Your Highness! Your Highness! Your Highness! Are you still here?"
"Your Highness, are you sneaking away again? The Queen will definitely scold me to death, Miss Ji! Miss Ji, are you in there? Can I come in?"
