Chapter 54 What to do, I think I'm liking you more and more. "Thank you..."
The carriage came to a stop, and Yan Yize lifted a corner of the curtain. She bent down and took a step out. Inadvertently, she looked up and a tall, slender figure quietly came into view. The figure in green appeared small in front of the tall red gate, but it immediately grabbed her gaze and made her unable to look away even for a moment.
The moment Yan Yize saw Shang Xu, his vexation vanished. His expression softened, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he hurried toward him.
Yan Yize raised her hand and tidied his wind-blown hair. In front of everyone, she wanted to restrain herself, but he was like an addictive poppy to her. Just a touch made her lose her mind and pull him into her arms.
Yan Yize held him tightly, burying her head in his neck, gently inhaling his unique scent, feeling an unprecedented peace in her heart.
"Have you been waiting long?" Hanxiao's voice carried an indescribable gentleness.
Shang Xu's face and the back of his ears were already flushed red. His eyes darted around in a panic. How could they hug and cuddle like this in public?
He reached out and gently pushed her, but couldn't budge her. He swallowed hard, his face flushed, and whispered, "There...there are still people watching."
"Mmm." Yan Yize responded casually, tightening his grip on his waist and coaxing, "I've been out for most of the day, I missed you, let me hold you a little longer."
Her aggrieved voice carried a hint of allure, and Shang Xu's heart softened; he hesitated for a moment.
"Then...then hurry up."
After saying that, Shang Xu closed his eyes in a self-deceptive manner, as if as long as he couldn't see others, others couldn't see him either.
Yan Yize's attention had been focused on him the whole time, so he naturally saw this self-deceptive scene. He was in a great mood and couldn't help but chuckle, "Shang Xu, what should I do? I think I'm liking you more and more."
The drawn-out ending note was captivating, and Shang Xu's ears burned. The blush on his face deepened, and the word "like" made his already erratic heartbeat even more chaotic.
Finally, Yan Yize had hugged him enough and mercifully let go. Shang Xu felt her movement, opened his eyes, blushed, and tried to back away, but she stopped him as soon as he moved, "Don't move."
The hand that was across his waist stopped halfway back, then moved down along his waistline, took his drooping hand in its grasp, and her fingertips forcefully slipped between his fingers, interlocking with his.
Yan Yize glanced at Huixue, then slightly raised his free hand. Huixue, being very perceptive, stepped forward and handed him something.
Yan Yize took it, waved it at Shang Xu, and smiled gently, "I heard you like to eat qingtuan (green rice dumplings), and I happened to pass by on my way back, so I brought you some."
Hui Xue looked up in surprise. What? Just happened to be passing by? Didn't His Highness specifically order them to take a detour to buy it? Why didn't you tell Young Master Shang?
Hui Xue looked up at the sky and sighed. As His Highness's subordinate, she truly couldn't fathom his thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Shang Xu was deeply moved once again. Having been neglected for so long, he had almost forgotten his own preferences.
Overwhelmed with joy at being remembered, he burst into tears and threw himself into her arms, completely forgetting how he had resisted being embraced in public.
A muffled voice came from behind, "Your Highness, may I call you my mistress?"
Yan Yize was taken aback, not expecting him to say this, but quickly nodded, "Okay."
The term "wife" is sacred in Shang Xu's heart. Although they have consummated their marriage, he has never called her that before, nor has he ever felt the urge to do so. But at this moment, he suddenly wants to call her that.
"Thank you, my lady."
