Chapter 138: Serious Matters
The little prince walked hurriedly through the corridor, holding an exquisite box in his hand. The mother-of-pearl craftsmanship on the box made it obvious that it was not an ordinary item.
"elder sister."
Wen En rushed to Wen Wan and stuffed the box into her arms.
"Open it and take a look. You will definitely like it."
Wen Wan was stunned and forced herself to calm down from the joy of reunion.
"Oh?" She chuckled and opened the box under his eager gaze.
Inside the box was a palm-sized stone. The stone was in the shape of a roasted pig's trotter. Both in shape and color, it looked very much like a real roasted pig's trotter.
This kind of naturally formed strange stone is not only ridiculously expensive, but whether you can get it depends on fate.
Winn came across someone selling this stone on the way, so he hurriedly bought it and eagerly delivered it to her.
He thought she would like it.
Wen Wan really liked it, but at this moment her heart was already filled with the joy of reunion, and the joy brought by this strange stone seemed insignificant.
"Sister, don't you like it?"
Her reaction was so indifferent that Wen En frowned in dissatisfaction.
Hearing this, Wen Wan forced a smile and said, "No, I quite like it."
Winn seemed unconvinced.
Wen Wan added: "Maybe I was drunk yesterday, so I'm not in a good state."
Wen En felt a little guilty when he mentioned yesterday's wine, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He helped her walk back and said, "Then go back and rest quickly. I'll find a palace doctor to check on you later."
Wen Wan: "No need, I'm not that delicate."
The two of them walked away gradually, without noticing that the gardener who was digging the soil had stopped his work at some point and was staring at the two of them as they left with burning eyes.
The chief steward turned around and saw that he was still looking. He walked over and said coldly, "Still looking? Don't you want these eyes anymore?"
Shen Yu retracted his gaze and asked casually, "That girl just now, is she the slave of the Duan Dynasty that the little prince holds in his palm?"
The chief steward didn't want to pay any attention to him, but he took a look at the renovated soil and the osmanthus tree that was obviously showing signs of improvement.
"Yes. Although you and she are both from the Duan Dynasty, you should keep a clear mind and never have any contact with her. It's best not to even talk to her."
Shen Yu bowed his luggage and asked politely, "Can you please give me some advice, Chief Steward?"
The chief steward hesitated for a moment and whispered, "The young prince dotes on Miss Jiejie and won't tolerate her speaking to other men. A few days ago, Miss Jiejie was flying a kite, and a guard picked it up for her. He exchanged a few pleasantries with Miss Jiejie, and that evening the guard had his leg broken."
"I only said a few more words because you worked so hard. You must remember this."
Shen Yu responded calmly, but the worry in his eyes grew stronger and stronger.
*
Three o'clock in the morning.
There were two sounds of insects chirping outside the window. Wen Wan opened her eyes and immediately turned over and sat up.
She tiptoed to the window and opened it.
The man jumped in through the window with nimble movements, and as soon as he landed, he hugged her in his arms.
A familiar scent invaded her and seemed to fill her entire world in an instant.
Wen Wan put her arm around his waist and said with a sob, "I knew you would come to climb through the window tonight."
Shen Yu was startled, raised his hand and pinched her cheek, "We've been apart for a long time, and you have to make our meeting sound like an affair?"
Wen Wan: “…”
The original feeling of being moved by the reunion was dispelled by his joke.
Sure enough, straight men are born masters at ruining the atmosphere.
She punched him in the chest fiercely, "Who's having an affair with you? I see you're an old hand at having affairs. You look very skilled at climbing through the window."
"Don't make trouble." Shen Yu held her wrist, "Don't you know whether I have climbed over other young ladies' windows? When we first met..."
"???" Wen Wan quickly covered his mouth, "Shut up! It's already this time, and you're still acting like a hooligan!"
She really didn't understand why he would bring up that kind of thing at this time?
Men are in heat regardless of the occasion?
Shen Yu sighed lightly, leaned forward, and whispered in a hoarse voice: "I'm not being a hooligan, I just... missed you."
I miss her so much that I wish I could crush her into pieces and melt her into my own flesh and blood.
The longing on her face was also reflected in his light black pupils.
Wen Wan's heart softened, she lowered her eyes, and choked with sobs, "I miss you, too."
Hearing this, Shen Yu was stunned, as if he didn't expect that she would admit this longing so frankly.
She had told him so decisively that they had to draw a clear line.
Shen Yu stared at her with burning eyes, "What do you mean by this?"
Wen Wan glared at him, "Literally."
"What does it literally mean?" Shen Yu was relentless and insisted on getting an answer.
Wen Wan struggled a bit, but he held her down so tightly that she couldn't even move.
What a bastard, full of brute force.
She was both angry and amused, and said angrily, "I just miss you, and I still like you! Is that okay? Is that clear enough?"
Shen Yu smiled and said in a sour tone: "But didn't you say that we will only be friends from now on?"
Wen Wan curled her lips, "Which bastard said that? Anyway, I never said that."
Shen Yu was shocked, as if he had not expected her to be so shameless and directly deny it?
But on second thought, she never plays by the rules, and when she cheats, she really doesn't care about her face at all.
"Heh," Shen Yu sneered, and was amused by her.
When it comes to being friends, she is cold-hearted.
When I want to reconcile, I am shameless.
Was she sure that he couldn't do anything to her?
but……
He really couldn't do anything to her.
Since Wen Wan didn't care about her face anymore, she just bit his lips.
The anger in Shen Yu's heart was completely gone after she made such a fuss.
The hot-blooded man, after meeting her again after a long separation, could not stand her teasing. He immediately surrendered and let her have whatever she wanted.
The kiss lasted until she was out of breath.
Wen Wan wiped her mouth and pushed him away, "We've kissed, now let's talk about serious matters."
Shen Yu stood up straight, and pulled her into his arms greedily, "Talk, you can talk like this."
"No." Wen Wan refused flatly, "Stand still. This matter must be made clear."
Seeing her so serious, Shen Yu hesitated for a moment, then stood there obediently without moving.
Wen Wan's face was gloomy, and she asked in a cold voice, "If you want to pretend to be a gardener, then pretend. If you want to plant trees, then plant them. But you took off your clothes and showed off your abs in front of so many women. What do you mean by that?"
Shen Yu was stunned, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "This... is what you said... a serious matter?"
"Of course!" Wen Wan said righteously, "Anyway, we are trapped here now, so there is no need to rush to discuss escape. But you must explain to me immediately about taking off your clothes!"
