Chapter 67 She Doesn’t Have That Much Courage
When we arrived at the east wing dining hall, we found that the food tonight was particularly sumptuous. Compared with the previous ones, it was as if we were entertaining distinguished guests.
Li Runrun was a little surprised. Could it be that Ye Yunchu was going to entertain guests tonight?
"I ordered a table of their signature dishes from Zuixianlou. Please try them."
"I?"
Hearing what the prince said, Li Runrun had the illusion that the prince had specially ordered this banquet to entertain her.
But how could that be?
It must be the prince himself who wants to eat it.
But it was boring to eat alone, so he called her over. It seemed that the prince was in a good mood tonight.
Li Runrun sat down a little awkwardly. Seeing the prince looking at her, she felt so nervous that she didn't know what to do with her hands and feet.
Ye Yunchu's jade-white hands picked up the wine pot with a gilded lotus pattern. He took a wine cup and placed it in front of Li Ruanruan: "Can you drink?"
Li Ruanruan saw that the prince was about to pour her some wine, so she quickly stood up and said, "Prince, let me serve you."
Because Ye Yunchu didn't let the head maid come in to serve her, but how could she let the prince do this kind of work for her? Li Runrun was still very considerate.
"sit down."
After he said that, Li Runrun didn't dare to move anymore.
He picked up the wine glass, seeming to be in high spirits: "Will you drink from each other's cups?"
Li Runrun blushed, but nodded.
He raised his glass.
Li Ruanruan put her arm around his and drank a cup of wine with him.
This wine is not strong liquor. It is sweet with a fruity aroma and tastes very good.
Rather than liquor, it is more like a fruit wine that can help you relieve greasiness.
It tastes very good, and the pear's eyes light up after drinking it.
She also had her own little thoughts. Since she had already drunk the wedding wine with the prince, of course there would not be a drop left.
Ye Yunchu continued to pour her wine: "You can drink quite well."
"This wine is delicious."
The flavors I bought are the ones that are popular among ladies nowadays, so of course they are delicious.
She had given him and the prince a new idea regarding the disaster victims, and it was very useful, so he came in person to reward her.
Seeing that Li Ruanruan was about to drink, Ye Yunchu held her hand and said, "Eat some food. Drinking too much on an empty stomach will make you feel uncomfortable. How can you not take care of yourself like this?"
Li Runrun blushed when she heard him say that.
He just lowered his head and ate the food. It was indeed a signature dish of a famous restaurant in Beijing. It was delicious, but a little bland. This might be because the seasonings nowadays were not as abundant as those in later generations.
Li Runrun had only eaten a full meal for a few days. Before that, she only ate coarse grains, porridge and wild vegetables. She picked whatever she wanted and ate without even raising her head.
The gap between her and the prince is so huge, one is in heaven and the other is on earth, it seems that there is nothing to talk about.
She drank the wine the prince poured for her.
While eating and drinking, Li Ruanruan felt a little dizzy because she drank too much.
She supported her cheek and looked at the prince in a daze.
Ye Yunchu put down his chopsticks and looked at her: "What are you looking at?"
"My Lord, you look so good."
Li Runrun said this with a silly smile.
Ye Yunchu didn't expect that Li Runrun would get drunk after just a few glasses of wine.
When he drank this wine, he felt nothing, and it could even make people drunk.
Ye Yunchu was also a little surprised.
If he wasn't drunk, how could the well-behaved concubine dare to talk about his appearance?
Ye Yunchu chuckled, and even played a trick on her, pouring her another glass of wine: "If it looks good, just look at it more."
"Um."
Li Ruanruan asked seriously, "Can I sit on your lap?"
"Okay, come here."
Li Runrun ran over, put her arms around Ye Yunchu's neck, and leaned close to his face.
She spoke softly, her breath as sweet as orchid: "My Lord, you are so kind."
"Good what?"
"Anything is fine."
"Is there anything bad about it?"
Li Ruanruan raised her head, feeling dizzy. She seemed to think for a moment before she said, "There are also some bad things."
She leaned over to his ear and whispered something that would not pass muster: "...Can you be less fierce?"
Ye Yunchu pinched her waist: "I'm afraid not. Besides, doesn't Xiaoruanruan like it too?"
Li Runrun blushed and then nodded.
Ye Yunchu smiled. This little boy looked so easy to bully and so obedient.
He reached out and pinched her cheek: "Then can you read?"
Li Runrun looked at Ye Yunchu, then blinked, lowered her head and said nothing.
Little thing, you are still not honest.
"If you can write my name, I will give you a gold ingot."
Li Ruanruan's eyes widened, and she looked straight at Ye Yunchu: "But, the prince is very poor, the prince... has no gold ingots."
Then Li Ruanruan patted Ye Yunchu's shoulder and said, "When I earn gold ingots in the future, I will give them to you."
"Who told you I was poor?"
"My Lord, you always want my money to spend. You even stole the money I put in the embroidery basket."
"Is that your silver?"
Li Ruanruan raised her head high, then lowered it heavily, nodding: "Yeah."
"How did you earn it?"
Ye Yunchu only asked this question.
Li Ruanruan was scared. It was earned from his clothes, so she hugged Ye Yunchu and whispered in his ear: "It's your money."
"Yes! Yours, the silver! All for you!"
She whispered another sentence.
Ye Yunchu hugged her, smiling all the time: "You must be drunk."
"No."
Li Ruanruan shook her head: "When you are drunk you will see two princes, but there is only one."
"Then let you down and walk on your own."
"Can."
Ye Yunchu put her on the ground.
Li Ruanruan actually walked properly, but a little crookedly, and then started to fall backwards.
It was Ye Yunchu who stepped over, put his arms around her waist, and pulled her into his arms again.
Li Runrun felt dizzy, but she only saw the prince, who was holding her in his arms, making her feel safe.
Li Ruanruan closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully in his arms.
Seeing her close her eyes, Ye Yunchu shook her: "Little Ruanruan."
It was funny to find that she was really asleep. She would sleep after eating.
Li Runrun didn't sleep for long either. When she opened her eyes, Ye Yunchu was still awake, leaning on the bed reading a book.
Li Runrun opened her eyes, still a little confused, and couldn't remember how she ended up here.
I remember drinking, and then I seemed to have a blackout.
Li Runrun looked at Ye Yunchu standing beside her. She thought, she shouldn't have said anything nonsense or done anything stupid, right?
I hope I didn't offend this precious prince.
Ye Yunchu was tired of reading and turned over, but just happened to see Li Runrun with her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.
The next second, Ye Yunchu hit Li Ruanruan's head with a book: "Still pretending."
I didn't expect to be discovered.
Li Ruanruan finally opened her eyes and smiled sheepishly, "My Lord."
"I thought I could pretend to be asleep and pretend nothing happened."
Li Ruanruan's heart skipped a beat: "My Lord, did I... do something to you?"
"Um."
"So, what did I do?"
"You... kissed me."
She... doesn't have that much courage.
