Chapter 340, Childhood Sweethearts
Xiao Yeyang finished the cake in a few bites.
Daohua looked at him with admiration, then asked, "Aren't you tired of it?"
Xiao Yeyang glanced at her unhappily and burped: "What do you think?"
The cake is delicious, but if you eat a pound or two at once, you will feel too sick.
Daohua snorted, "You made me such a big piece of cake yourself. If you share it with others, I won't be tired of it."
Xiao Yeyang glanced over and said, "My name is written on this cake. Are you going to give me to someone else?"
Daohua was speechless: "It's just a cake, I'm not going to share it with you."
After saying this, Daohua was stunned for a moment.
Wait, this seems a bit ambiguous and weird.
Before she could think about it, she heard Xiao Yeyang say, "Even cakes are not okay. Wouldn't it be offensive for someone else to eat a cake with my name on it?"
Daohua smiled: "Why should I be upset?"
It's him who's eating, not her.
Xiao Yeyang glared at Daohua fiercely and was too lazy to talk nonsense with her. Seeing that there was some cream left at the corner of her mouth, he reached out to wipe it off for her.
Originally he just wanted to wipe off the cream, but when his hand touched Daohua's delicate and smooth cheek, he didn't want to take his hand back.
“Bang!”
Daohua slapped Xiao Yeyang's hand away and looked around nervously. Seeing that no one was around, she glared at Xiao Yeyang fiercely: "I'm going to die. You're just touching me like that."
"I just wanted to wipe the milk stains off the corners of your mouth." As he said that, Xiao Yeyang stretched out his hand to show her the cream stuck on his hand.
Seeing the cream, Daohua pursed her lips and said in a weaker tone: "Even so, you shouldn't have done it directly. You should have told me and let me wipe it myself."
"If someone saw what you did just now, they wouldn't blame you, but me. Especially now that your childhood sweetheart cousin has come along."
Hearing the words "childhood sweethearts", Xiao Yeyang stood up and said, "What childhood sweethearts? Don't talk nonsense!"
Daohua: "I'm talking nonsense? Go ask around and see if other people are saying the same thing."
Xiao Yeyang frowned and looked at Defu.
Defu nodded reluctantly.
Xiao Yeyang's expression suddenly turned cold: "What on earth is going on?"
Daohua was surprised: "You are the person involved, and you don't know?"
Xiao Yeyang glanced at her, said nothing, just looked at Defu.
Defu: "When Mrs. Jiang was at various banquets, she would often tell the ladies of the various families that you and Miss Jiang grew up in the Empress Dowager's palace. Later, when someone wanted to curry favor with the Jiang family, the rumor of your childhood sweethearts spread."
As soon as these words were spoken, a chilling chill immediately emanated from Xiao Yeyang's entire body.
The rice flowers couldn't help but shiver. They looked at the big sun in the sky and quietly moved to the side.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Yeyang suddenly looked at Daohua: "Don't believe what those people say, they are all talking nonsense. How can my cousin Wanying and I be considered childhood sweethearts?"
"Yes, I have lived in the palace since I was a child, but that was with the princes. Cousin Wanying often played in the Empress Dowager's palace. I only spoke to her when I went to pay my respects."
"If this is considered childhood sweethearts, then I and the princesses, and she and the princes, are all childhood sweethearts."
Seeing Xiao Yeyang's excited expression, Daohua quickly comforted him and pulled his sleeve, asking him to sit down: "It's not true, so why are you so excited?"
Xiao Yeyang frowned: "You misunderstood me."
“.”
Daohua was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "It's my fault."
Xiao Yeyang: "That's right. If we really talk about childhood sweethearts, you and I are almost the same. My cousin Wanying and I are just slightly more familiar playmates."
Rice flower: “.”
Defu wanted to look up at the sky again.
The master said so much just to introduce this sentence.
Daohua was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said, "We can't be considered childhood sweethearts, right?"
Xiao Yeyang was not happy: "Why not? Aren't we getting along very well?"
Daohua smiled awkwardly and looked away: "You get along well with Yuanyao and Jingwan, so you are childhood sweethearts with them?" As she said that, she stood up.
"If you ask me, childhood sweethearts and all that is nonsense. They are just playmates."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua and saw that her eyes were wandering and her expression was evasive. She seemed a little embarrassed. The corners of his mouth suddenly rose, and he didn't want to continue the topic.
"Come here and see what I brought you."
Seeing that Xiao Yeyang changed the subject, Daohua breathed a sigh of relief and adjusted her expression before turning back. When she turned around, she saw Xiao Yeyang bringing out a plate of lychees from a food box filled with ice cubes.
"litchi!"
Daohua's attention was immediately attracted to it.
Seeing her eyes light up instantly, Xiao Yeyang smiled, reached out to take a lychee, peeled off the shell, and then fed it directly to Daohua's mouth.
“Eat!”
Seeing Daohua standing there motionless, Xiao Yeyang had to urge her.
"oh!"
Daohuamumu opened his mouth and immediately put the litchi in his mouth.
The lychees were a bit big, and Daohua's mouth was small. Holding a lychee in her mouth made her look like a greedy hamster with her whole mouth bulging.
Xiao Yeyang laughed out loud.
Daohua glared at him and raised her round fan to cover her face: "What are you laughing at?"
Xiao Yeyang didn't say anything, but just asked, "Is it delicious?"
Rice Flower: "Just try one and you'll know."
Xiao Yeyang looked at the lychees on the plate and said, "Forget it, I'll leave them for you. This thing is hard to come by, and I only got this one plate. If I were in the capital, I could get you some more. But here, if you eat them, they'll be gone."
Hearing this, Daohua felt very uncomfortable and choked without paying attention.
"Ahem~"
Xiao Yeyang quickly stood up and patted her on the back: "How could you be so careless?"
Daohua coughed for a while before calming down.
Xiao Yeyang: "Are you okay? You were fine, how come you choked?"
Seeing the concern in Xiao Yeyang's eyes, Daohua looked away and felt confused: "Xiao Yeyang, you don't have to be so nice to me in the future."
Xiao Yeyang was stunned at first, but then he smiled again when he saw Daohua's rosy cheeks. "It's just a plate of lychees, how can it be considered good?" He peeled another lychee and said, "Here, another one."
Seeing the lychee next to her mouth, Daohua turned her head away: "Eat it yourself."
Xiao Yeyang's eyes moved, and he smiled and said, "Then peel it for me."
Rice Flower: "Why?"
Xiao Yeyang: "I've peeled them all for you. It's a courtesy, don't you understand?"
Daohua glared at him and said, "You wish. I won't peel it for you."
Xiao Yeyang snorted: "Forget it, do you want to eat this one?" He stretched out his hand and held up the peeled lychee.
Daohua turned her head and said: "I won't eat what you peel. I can do it myself."
Xiao Yeyang looked at the lychee in his hand and said, "If you don't eat it, I will." As he said that, he ate the lychee in his hand in one bite.
When Daohua saw this, she stomped her feet.
This guy had just put the lychee next to her mouth.
Seeing Daohua staring at him, Xiao Yeyang said innocently, "I ate it because you said you didn't want to."
Daohua turned her head away angrily, not wanting to look at this guy anymore.
Why didn’t I realize before that this person is so good at cheating?
Seeing Daohua sitting still, Xiao Yeyang pushed the agate plate of lychees toward her and said, "These lychees need to be chilled to taste good. Once the heat seeps through them, they won't be as delicious anymore."
