Chapter 23



I opened my mouth wide. This woman actually knew Li Rui and called him "Prince Rui". Could she be a lady from a certain family? I looked at her from above. She was wearing a nightgown and a veil on her face, revealing only a pair of eyes. But I swear, these eyes are definitely the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen since I came to ancient times. They are clear and bright, and have a bit of heroic spirit. They are completely different from those delicate ladies in ancient times.

Li Rui seemed stunned for a moment, but soon recovered and said calmly: "Miss, you have recognized the wrong person. I am not the King Rui."

I secretly complained in my heart, this prince is really good at pretending. It’s obvious that this woman is not very skilled, but he actually wants to get away with it?

The woman seemed to see through Li Rui's thoughts, and a cold smile appeared on her lips. She said, "Your Highness, there is no need to hide it. With your temperament and appearance, who else could it be except the current emperor's younger brother, Prince Rui?"

"Who are you?" I couldn't help but ask. Although the woman's tone was not heavy, it carried an unquestionable aura, which made me curious about her.

"My name is A'man." The woman glanced at me and said lightly.

"Aman? This name... is really special." I held back my laughter. The name and the person she is are so different, right?

Ah Man didn't seem to hear what I said. He just looked at Li Rui with complicated emotions in his eyes and said, "Prince Rui, do you still remember that you saved a girl in Southern Xinjiang 20 years ago?"

Years ago? I looked at Li Rui, then at Ah Man, and suddenly had a bold guess in my mind. Could it be that Ah Man was the girl that Li Rui saved that year? And she also fell in love with Li Rui?

My gossipy soul was burning, and I wanted to shake Li Rui's shoulders immediately, asking him to come clean and explain clearly what his relationship with this Ah Man was!

Li Rui was also obviously reminded of Ah Man's words. A trace of pain flashed across his eyes. He was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "You are... Ah Man?"

"It's me." Ah Man nodded, his eyes reddened, "If it weren't for the prince's help, Ah Man would have already..."

Having said this, Ah Man suddenly stopped talking, as if he didn't want to recall the painful past.

Li Rui's face also turned ugly. He reached out and held Ah Man's hand, saying with a guilty tone: "Ah Man, I'm sorry, back then..."

"No, Prince, you don't have to say sorry. What happened back then has nothing to do with you." Ah Man held Li Rui's hand and said firmly, "My life was saved by you, Prince. From now on, my life belongs to you, Prince. As long as you say so, I will do whatever it takes!"

I was amazed at the scene in front of me. The plot was moving too fast, wasn't it? How did it suddenly become a romance drama?

Moreover, looking at Ah Man's posture, it seems that he wants to marry me!

Li Rui, what on earth are you thinking? Is your head made of a lump of wood?

I secretly observed Li Rui's expression, but found that his expression at this moment was very complicated. There was surprise, emotion, and a little bit of... panic?

"Aman, listen to me..." Li Rui wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Aman.

"Prince, there's no need to say anything. I understand everything." Ah Man said, and suddenly leaned forward and kissed Li Rui's lips...
