"Great!" Helan Ruizhe naturally sat down on the chair opposite her.
Jin Suting gave him a look and said, "Follow me."
Helan Ruizhe followed Jin Suting's footsteps and came to the door of her room. Just as he was about to enter, Jin Suting turned around and stopped him, saying seriously: "Wait, you are not allowed to enter a girl's room casually!"
Helan Ruizhe curled his lips: "Okay, okay, okay."
He turned his back and pretended not to be curious at all.
Not long after, Jin Suting opened the door and stepped out, one hand behind her back, and patted his shoulder with the other hand: "Helan Ruizhe, turn around."
He turned around and asked, "Are you okay?"
Jin Suting nodded: "To thank you for helping me pay for the medicine last time, I'll give you this mask!"
She stretched out the hand that was hidden behind her, and a silver mask appeared in her hand.
There are twin flowers engraved on the right side of the mask. The silvery-white twin flowers cling to the mask, which is three-dimensional and lifelike, and very beautiful.
"Is it for me?" Helan Ruizhe asked uncertainly.
"Yes," Jin Suting nodded generously, "I spent a lot of money to buy this at the Lantern Festival. What? You don't want it?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Such a beautiful mask, I wouldn't miss it." Helan Ruizhe accepted it happily.
"But then again, there should be another half to this mask, right?"
Other half?
"Yes, there is one that is golden, with flowers carved on the left side." Jin Suting said, "You don't want that one, do you? No, I tell you, that's my favorite, I can't give it to you."
Helan Ruizhe chuckled, "No, no need, this one looks great, I like it very much, thank you."
This sudden tenderness...
"cough--"
Jin Suting coughed a little uncomfortably, "Well, why don't you try it on?"
"Okay," Helan Ruizhe agreed happily, "I'll turn around."
As he said that, he turned around and took off the pig mask. Jin Suting suppressed her strong curiosity and did not peek at what he looked like.
Peeping and such is totally unbecoming of her as a young lady!
"How is it?" Helan Ruizhe turned around with a smile.
Jin Suting just came out of her trance and her eyes met the man in front of her.
He couldn't take his eyes off it for a moment. The mask seemed to be tailor-made for him, and its temperament perfectly matched his.
He is the noble and aloof Crown Prince, yet mysterious. Although most of his face is covered, his sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes reveal emotions that cannot be concealed.
Helan Ruizhe's pair of charming peach blossom eyes actually made Jin Suting see some masculinity in them.
"Isn't it beautiful?" Helan Ruizhe's unique voice interrupted Jin Suting's reverie.
"Ah? It looks good, it looks good." Jin Suting expressed her true thoughts.
Helan Ruizhe was happy, "As long as you like it."
He looks so good when he smiles, and his lips are so sexy! Jin Suting thought she must have gone crazy. How could she be completely mesmerized by someone just because he changed into a mask?
No! How can you be so superficial!
"Hahahahahahaha, the main thing is that Your Highness has a good foundation. No matter what mask you wear, you are super charming."
Helan Ruizhe laughed again. His smile was like the spring breeze in March, bringing the coolness of July summer, gentle and warm, yet unrestrained and uninhibited.
"Can I see the other mask?" Helan Ruizhe said.
Jin Suting hesitated for a while and looked at another mask?
If he saw it, wouldn't he realize that these two masks were a couple's pair?
It was already inappropriate for her, an unmarried girl, to give the Crown Prince a couple's mask.
And let me know? ?
So embarrassing...
Even though she would become his concubine sooner or later, it was still so shameful.
Although, when Helan Ruizhe was with her, he never deliberately mentioned the sensitive relationship between them, nor did he do anything out of line to her, but she would still think about that aspect consciously or unconsciously.
"Is it okay?" Helan Ruizhe asked again.
Jin Suting, who buried her head and wanted to regret it, said: "..."
Can't.
A few minutes later...
Jin Suting: "This is another mask, it's golden, and it matches your clothes today, hahahaha."
Helan Ruizhe: "It is very beautiful, but I think it will look better on your face. It is as small as your face."
Jin Suting: "No, I think my face is quite big. I didn't try it on much when I bought it."
As he said that, he put the mask on his face and put it on.
It really fits perfectly. The mask is cool and feels very comfortable on the face. Jin Suting looked at Helan Ruizhe while wearing the mask. "How is it? Does it look good?"
Helan Ruizhe nodded and looked at her gently. When their eyes met, time seemed to stand still.
The only sound in the air was the other person's heartbeat.
Jin Suting felt a little embarrassed by being stared at, so she coughed lightly and turned her head away.
Helan Ruizhe also coughed awkwardly and put his hand to his mouth to hide his helplessness at the moment.
She said, "Well, it's getting late."
He said, “Then I should go back.”
She said, "Well, shall I give you a ride?"
He nodded. "Okay."
Jin Suting took off the mask and put it aside.
They walked to the gate of Suxuan Courtyard and remained silent.
Before leaving, Helan Ruizhe said, "Do you still remember the reward for winning the polo match?"
Jin Suting thought about it and said, "I remember that I was traveling with you, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, for a day."
Helan Ruizhe nodded in agreement, "You are the winner of that game."
Her heartbeat suddenly quickened, and Jin Suting was a little overwhelmed. "Is it me? But didn't my horse lose control at the end of that race? And you were obviously letting it go..."
"Before the horse got out of control, your score was higher than mine." Helan Ruizhe interrupted her, "Although grandma didn't announce it in the end, the winner is indeed you."
Jin Suting nodded hesitantly and didn't say anything else.
Helan Ruizhe said: "So are you free tomorrow? I want to cash in my reward."
At this point, Jin Suting fell silent. She took a step back and said, "Tomorrow, no."
A flash of disappointment flashed across Helan Ruizhe's eyes, and he added, "What about the day after tomorrow? Or the day after tomorrow is also fine. I'm free either day."
Jin Suting said quickly, "I'm busy, Your Highness. My father is ill, and I don't have the energy to go for the time being... I'm sorry."
"I understand," Helan Ruizhe quickly replied, "I understand. I'll be waiting for you to come to me to redeem your reward."
"Anytime, I'm here."
Jin Suting's eyes were a little sore, she just nodded without saying anything.
"Then," Helan Ruizhe waved goodbye to her, "I'll leave first."
sorry.
Jin Suting told him again in her heart, whether out of friendship or other reasons.
