Chapter 539 (Extra) - He Kissed Her Again
In life, there are always a few moments when feelings prevail over reason.
For example, at this moment, the rationality that was raging in Chen Ci's mind was easily defeated by the impulse to kiss him.
Chen Ci's Adam's apple bobbed slightly as he leaned closer.
The moment his lips touched Shu Tong's bright red lips, a current began to spread from his lips to his entire body.
The speed was astonishing, making his heart start pounding.
Shu Tong opened her eyes, and what she saw was a magnified face. She reacted for a moment, and the man had already stood up straight.
"that……"
Shu Tong blinked and fell asleep again.
A slight smile played on her lips as she murmured, "As expected, anything is possible in dreams..."
Her barely audible syllables, though originally indistinct, clearly reached Chen Ci's ears.
His body stiffened, he gritted his teeth slightly, raised his hand and slammed it against the pillar beside him with a thud. A gentle breeze rustled, and the fragrance of flowers filled the air.
Sure enough, no matter which world he was in, this heart-wrenching feeling would never leave him.
Does he really have to be brave just once to escape this vicious cycle?
Chen Ci sighed softly, then bent down and picked up Shu Tong.
The moment she was lifted into the air, Shu Tong felt a little dizzy, so she leaned her head against Chen Ci's chest and reached out to grab his clothes.
Chen Ci looked down at the still-sleeping Shu Tong and whispered, "I'll take you back."
...
Shu Tong woke up the next morning.
The cool morning breeze blew in through the crack in the open window, and Shu Tong turned over and opened her eyes.
All she could see were familiar curtains and a room. She instinctively touched the space beside her, but there was no one there.
She let out a long sigh, and the scenes from last night inevitably began to flood her mind.
A wonderful candlelight dinner. The steak was cooked to perfection, tender and delicious, the lamb chops were also soft and flavorful, and there were wasabi shrimp balls. I don't know what ingredients were used, but the taste was absolutely amazing.
Then what?
Yes, and that aged wine too. It's smooth on the palate, with a slightly sweet aftertaste, and it's delicious.
She drank a lot.
Shu Tong was taken aback. He drank a lot? And then what?
She seemed to ask him why he had to be the crown prince, and even said that if he weren't the crown prince, maybe the two of them could be together.
Then……
Shu Tong suddenly sat up in bed.
Memories of yesterday flooded my mind.
She mentioned the divorce papers, and he told her to confess her feelings. He said he would give her the divorce papers if she confessed, and then...
He even kissed her!
Yes!
They kissed!
Shu Tong covered her face, her ears turning red.
Why did he kiss her? And why did he make her confess her feelings, yet he was willing to give her a divorce agreement?
What kind of logic is that?
Most importantly, why did she drink?
We're doomed!
Will she be able to save her life now?
Shu Tong tried to get out of bed, but her hand landed on something cold. She paused for a moment and looked down at it.
In the dim morning light, what she was holding was actually a gold medal, a gold medal from a Cuju (ancient Chinese football) competition.
While she was in a daze, Haitang, who had heard the noise, pushed open the door and came in: "My lady, you're awake? It's still early, you can sleep a little longer."
Shu Tong picked up the gold medal: "This gold medal is..."
"His Highness the Crown Prince gave this to you." Haitang smiled broadly. "You drank too much last night, and His Highness carried you back. Before leaving, he put the gold medal next to your pillow and left you two hundred gold coins as an opening ceremony reward."
"A gold medal given by the Crown Prince?" Shu Tong held the gold medal up to her eyes and looked at it.
Didn't the Crown Prince give his gold medal to the Crown Princess? She saw it on A Bao's neck.
Why does he still have a gold medal?
“Yes, that’s right.” Haitang smiled. “His Highness is so good to you.”
