Chapter 97 Help! So pitiful! And so cute!
Xue Chen once hated this face.
To this day.
I'm so glad that I was born like this.
Because Shengsheng likes it.
He lowered his eyes to glance at the girl beside him, turned his head away and reminded softly, "There's an ice lake ahead."
"Frost Spirit Chalcedony is deep in the icy lake."
"good……"
Ning Shengsheng clenched Xue Chen's hand tightly, her heartbeat still fast, with no sign of slowing down.
Could it be that...
Her feelings towards Xue Chen are more than just a liking for the character?
That’s right.
The person in front of her is a real person, not a villain described in a few words in the book.
"The temperature of the ice lake is even lower, Your Highness, please stay close to me."
Well……
Ning Shengsheng glanced at the two people's shoulders leaning against each other, and they were already close to each other.
How much closer can it get?
Xue Chen seemed to see what she was thinking, and chuckled and said, "Why not hold me?"
"Wha…what?"
Ning Shengsheng almost bit off her tongue. She looked up quickly and saw the guy with a teasing smile on his face.
"Xue Wuyin, are you kidding me?"
She was the least likely to be amused. With a roll of her eyes, she jumped up and hugged Xue Chen, "I think you're right."
"I'm holding you tight, go ahead!"
The boy stood there stiffly with his back straight.
"Your Highness, you are too..."
He came back to his senses from his unexpected expression and raised his lips helplessly in a faint smile.
"What's the matter? Didn't you let me hold you?"
Ning Shengsheng's arms around him gradually tightened, her head resting on his shoulder, and she urged, "Let's go!"
"Okay~" Xue Chen bent his left arm and let her sit on his forearm.
His right hand held her waist tightly to prevent her from falling.
Let the heavy snow fall.
Ning Shengsheng felt warm all over.
If you feel carefully, you will find that Xue Chen's palms holding her are always warm.
"Xue Wuyin, you've been holding the spiritual power in your palm for so long, aren't you tired?"
Obviously, resisting the cold has consumed a lot of spiritual energy.
"Not tired."
The boy's clear voice was mixed with the coolness of fine snow.
And you say you’re not tired!
Ning Shengsheng saw someone's ears that were frozen red, and followed his example, covering her spiritual power in her palms.
Xue Chen felt his back slowly getting hot, and his heart moved slightly, thinking that the prince was also interested in him.
Otherwise, why would she be so nice to him?
There was joy in Xue Chen's eyes.
The two of them were full of thoughts and after walking for half an hour they finally arrived at the ice lake.
Xue Chen: "I'll go down and get the chalcedony."
"Okay, be careful." Ning Shengsheng jumped down with a red face. When she almost fell, the other party put his arm around her waist and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"Um."
Ning Shengsheng realized it belatedly and shook her head, "It's okay."
"good."
After Xue Chen walked away, she slowly raised her head, fanned herself with her hands, and exhaled, "Strange, it's so hot!"
The system said quietly: [Host, you are finished, you have fallen in love...]
"Don't talk nonsense!"
She can separate work and life.
"Xue Chen is just my target, a mission, a job you gave me... cough..."
The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became.
When she thought of someone's almond-shaped eyes, the red mole between his eyebrows, and beautiful lips, her heart beat faster.
"Ning Shengsheng, you are so lustful!"
The system laughed: [Lust is human nature. Host, there's no need to suppress yourself. Go kiss him! Throw him down!]
Xue Chen wishes you were like this, the system thought.
“…Shut up.”
Why is her system becoming more and more irregular?
Ning Shengsheng chatted with the system for just a stick of incense.
The boy came out of the icy lake.
Holding blue and purple ice flowers in his hands.
Xue Chen walked slowly and stopped one step away from Ning Shengsheng.
"Your Highness, I'm so cold..."
He frowned slightly, his beautiful eyes filled with grievance, and stretched out his red hands.
"Hug me..."
“!!!”
Help! So pitiful! And so cute!
Ning Shengsheng screamed wildly in her heart, but pretended to be calm with her arms open.
"Since you helped me get the Frost Spirit Jasper, I will reluctantly let you keep me warm~"
"Okay~"
Xue Chen hugged Ning Shengsheng, rested his chin on her furry head, and rubbed it comfortably.
"Xue Wuyin, are you rubbing the cat?"
Ning Shengsheng poked his waist in dissatisfaction, and the other party dodged with a muffled laugh, "Your Highness, don't touch there, it's itchy~"
“Ahem…oh!”
Just be itchy, why are you acting like a spoiled brat?
Ning Shengsheng fainted again. Bewitched by the beauty, she followed Xue Chen out of the extremely cold secret realm in a daze.
Now the two are on their way back to Daning.
There's no need to rush on the return trip.
They traveled all the way south from the northernmost part, eating and shopping, and it took them two months to reach Daning.
Ningguo has just entered winter.
Xue Chen helped her wrap her cloak, and his fingertips brushed across her pink cheeks. "It's almost the New Year."
"Well, yes!"
Ning Shengsheng pushed aside the fur on the hood.
"New Year's Day is a good day." The boy helped her tuck her windblown hair behind her ears.
“Yeah!”
"I don't know when I can live in the princess's mansion."
"I don't even have my own mansion, why are you living in a…"
Ning Shengsheng was stuck, and only reacted when she looked up and saw his meaningful look.
This guy is asking for status with her again.
He wanted her to leave the palace quickly and set up a house, and recruit him as her husband.
"Then... I'll discuss this with my brother..."
Ning Shengsheng ran back to Chaoxia Palace with a red face and offered sponge cake and date paste to the prepared warm stove.
"The servants miss the princess so much!"
Zaoni stepped forward and acted coquettishly, "Princess, have you forgotten us?"
"Why, this trip took a while."
She rubbed the heater in her hand, her eyes sparkling, "Let's eat hot pot tonight!"
"Okay!" Songgao asked with a smile, "Is your name Xue Proton?"
"Don't!"
Ning Shengsheng shifted uncomfortably.
I don’t know what’s wrong with Xue Chen these past two months. He’s always acting like a spoiled child and pretending to be pitiful.
Or seduce her.
If she had not been an excellent modern ox and horse, she would have fallen long ago. Fortunately, Ning Shengsheng's first lesson after entering society was that work and feelings should not be mixed.
Wait until she completes the task.
Consider something else!
The system in the sea of consciousness couldn't help laughing. If only that terrifying villain knew what the host was thinking.
I'm afraid he'll be mad to death!
"Did the princess and Xue Zhizi have a fight?" Songgao thoughtfully poured a cup of hot tea.
"No."
Ning Shengsheng held the tea and shook her head.
Sponge cake and jujube paste looked at each other, and it seemed that they were really having a quarrel.
The two stopped asking questions and started working.
When the hot pot is served.
Ning Shengsheng picked up the mutton and said quickly, "Send a portion to Liyuan after you finish eating."
"Okay!"
Their Highness has always been tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
Xue Chen returned to the Pear Courtyard. The various flowers arranged by Ning Shengsheng in the room were well taken care of by the palace servants.
The room wasn't cold either.
Xuetuan climbed onto his shoulder and meowed. The kitten drooped its eyes sleepily and was about to fall asleep.
Then he listened to what his master said.
"The room is colorful and full of life. Shengsheng has really good taste."
Xuetuan gave Xue Chen a blank look.
Licking his paw gracefully.
I don’t know who disliked these potted plants, didn’t allow it to play with them, and even threw them away!
Humans are indeed fickle!
