"Oh, you, Yueyue, so you were just pretending. You made me so worried, I thought you were really angry."
After Zhan Beiting finished speaking, he immediately pulled Jiang Jingyue into her arms and tickled her.
Jiang Jingyue is fearless, but there is one thing she is terrified of.
That is being tickled. What she fears most is being tickled.
So when Zhan Beiting was being so lenient with her, she couldn't stand it and laughed so hard she almost collapsed.
Zhan Beiting looked at her now and hugged her with a smile.
"Yueyue, okay, let's stop playing. How about I take you to eat something delicious?"
Jiang Jingyue quite likes food, so when she heard Zhan Beiting say he would take her out to eat, her eyes lit up immediately.
"Zhan Beiting, what delicious food are you taking me to eat? I'm starving right now, let's go quickly!"
Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhao Jiaorou went straight to Prince Cheng's residence after leaving the banquet. The people at the entrance of Prince Cheng's residence recognized her, so when they saw her trying to enter, they did not stop her and let her in immediately.
Once inside, Zhao Jiaorou immediately went to find Zhan Chengde.
"Your Highness, are you inside?"
Zhao Jiaorou didn't dare to go into the study casually, so she could only knock on the door and wait outside.
Hearing the noise from outside, Zhan Chengde was startled and immediately pushed away the man who was pressing down on him.
"Ah Liang, get up for a moment. Someone's here. We can start our business later."
The person who was called Ah Liang was somewhat dissatisfied when he heard this, and he was reluctant to get up.
However, after hearing Zhan Chengde say that and looking so nervous, he finally got up.
"Your Highness, Ah Liang will listen to you now. But remember, after everyone leaves, you must make sure Ah Liang is satisfied!"
When Zhan Chengde heard what Ah Liang said, he felt helpless. He wanted to refuse, but his body's reaction made it impossible for him to refuse, so in the end he nodded.
"Alright, I promise you. Ah Liang, I'll come find you after I've dealt with this matter, and I'll definitely make it up to you later."
After saying this, Zhan Chengde immediately stood up and walked outside.
Zhao Jiaorou, who was waiting outside, was getting impatient. If Zhan Chengde didn't come out, she might just push the door open and go in.
Fortunately, after she waited for a while, Zhan Chengde finally opened the wooden door.
The moment Zhao Jiaorou saw Zhan Chengde, she was filled with excitement.
"Your Highness, what are you doing in there? Why haven't you come out yet? Let's go inside! I have something very important to tell you."
After saying this, Zhao Jiaorou was about to walk inside when Zhan Chengde stopped her.
The main reason is that they just did that kind of thing inside, and there's still a smell. If he lets her in now, Zhan Chengde is afraid that Zhao Jiaorou will smell something.
"Jiaojiao, let's talk outside! Don't come in."
Zhan Chengde originally thought that Zhao Jiaorou would definitely agree after he said that, but it was precisely because of what he said that Zhao Jiaorou couldn't help but become suspicious.
She looked at Zhan Chengde anxiously, "Your Highness, why can't I go into your study? Are you keeping a mistress in there? Otherwise, why won't you let me in?"
Upon seeing her like this, Zhan Chengde immediately shook his head.
"How could that be, Jiaojiao? You must be overthinking this. There's no one in my study. You're just imagining things. Let's go out quickly! Didn't you have something important to tell me?"
Zhao Jiaorou simply didn't believe it; she found Zhan Chengde's current state very strange.
So, taking advantage of Zhan Chengde's inattention, she rushed inside.
As soon as she entered, she immediately started searching inside.
"Is anyone here? Come out now, or if I find you, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhao Jiaorou was furious. She kept searching inside, but after a long time, she still couldn't find anyone.
This made Zhao Jiaorou wonder if she had misunderstood. She immediately turned around, looked at Zhan Chengde, and said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry, Jiao Jiao misunderstood you. But Jiao Jiao knows that Your Highness will definitely not blame me, right? I just like Your Highness too much, that's why I was so worried."
Whether Zhan Chengde believed Zhao Jiaorou's words or not, he nodded noncommittally.
"Jiaojiao, I told you long ago that there's nothing to it, yet you still don't believe me. I'm really angry that you doubt me like this."
Seeing that he seemed genuinely angry, Zhao Jiaorou felt a pang of guilt and couldn't help but try to explain to Zhan Chengde.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry. I was wrong in this matter. I apologize to Your Highness. Let's go out now! I have something very important to discuss with Your Highness."
Zhan Chengde's greatest wish right now is for Zhao Jiaorou to leave his study as soon as possible.
So he immediately grabbed her and tried to take her outside.
After taking only a few steps, Zhao Jiaorou suddenly stopped. She sniffed and then looked at Zhan Chengde.
"Your Highness, can you smell something strange here? It's a very strange smell, I can't describe it."
Zhan Chengde certainly knew what it tasted like, but at this moment, he definitely couldn't tell Zhao Jiaorou.
So he immediately retorted.
"I can't smell anything! You must be mistaken, I can't smell anything at all!"
Zhao Jiaorou was quite certain; she had smelled a very strange odor.
However, since Zhan Chengde said no, she didn't say anything more.
She leaned against him, letting him hold her as they prepared to leave.
Just as Zhan Chengde was relieved that he had gotten away with it, a sound suddenly came from inside, and Zhao Jiaorou stopped immediately.
Zhan Chengde was originally going to stop her from going in, but he had no choice; Zhao Jiaorou ran inside in a flash.
"Who goes there? Come out right now! I already know where you are. If you don't come out, I'll get rough with you."
