Gu Linchao leaned against the wall, regulating his breathing, while his eyes unconsciously followed the girl's figure, paying attention to her every move.
Then I saw her drawing something on the ground with a stick, and I couldn't help but feel curious.
Just as he was about to look, she suddenly dropped the stick in her hand and leaned over to ask, "Is Your Highness hungry?"
Gu Linchao was naturally hungry; he hadn't eaten for several meals. But faced with the girl's concerned gaze, he instinctively wanted to deny it.
But before he could speak, Wen Nongnong said, "If you're hungry, take a look at the cakes I drew. That should make you feel less hungry." As she spoke, she pointed to the ground.
Gu Linchao looked closely and saw that she had drawn a circle on the ground.
He paused for a moment, unable to see how it resembled a pancake.
However, he understood what she meant.
"Drawing a picture of a cake to satisfy hunger?" He raised an eyebrow, a smile flashing in his dark eyes.
Wen Nongnong, clutching her stomach, smacked her lips and said, "I was hungry, so I drew myself a pancake, and now I don't seem so hungry anymore. It seems to be working. So if Your Highness is also hungry, you should also take a look at the pancake on the ground."
Upon hearing this, Gu Linchao felt guilty.
She has always lived a life of luxury and ease; she has never suffered such hardship before.
Today, however, because of him, they have to suffer from hunger and cold.
He suddenly grabbed her hand and stood up. "Let's not wait any longer, let's go first."
Wen Nongnong was stunned for a moment, then quickly grabbed him, "Go? Where are we going? It's still raining outside. Your injury can't get wet, otherwise it will be more dangerous."
"It's alright," Gu Linchao reassured him. "The rain isn't as heavy anymore."
“No.” Wen Nongnong frowned. “You can’t risk your health. Besides, you promised me you would take care of yourself. Let’s wait a little longer. That person will definitely come back, because his life is still in my hands.”
Gu Linchao frowned. "But aren't you hungry?"
Wen Nongnong said earnestly, "I am hungry, but I can still endure it." Thinking of something, she pulled her clothes closer together and said with a grin, "It would be best if I could lose some weight from hunger, then I would be even slimmer."
Gu Linchao's gaze followed her movements, landing on her slender waist, which seemed to fit in one hand. He paused for a moment, then looked away, scolding her sternly, "Nonsense, you'll look terrible if you get any thinner."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "Then does Your Highness prefer me to be a little thinner or a little fatter?"
Hearing her blunt question, Gu Linchao's eyes flashed with surprise, followed by a hint of unease on his face.
This girl really has no shame at all...
"Your Highness, please tell me, I want to know." Wen Nong Nong shook his arm.
Gu Linchao's face flushed, and he scolded her sternly, "How can you be so unruly as a woman?"
Wen Nongnong pouted, "You're my husband, how come asking you something like this involves rules?"
Gu Linchao: "..."
Wen Nong Nong glanced at him and suddenly said, "Your Highness, are you perhaps embarrassed?" As she spoke, she took a step closer to him.
Gu Linchao couldn't help but take a step back. Seeing that she was about to come any closer, he quickly reached out and held her shoulder, frowning as he reminded her, "There are other people here, don't mess around."
Wen Nong Nong blinked. "Does Your Highness mean that if no one is around, I can do whatever I want?"
When faced with the girl's beautiful, alluring eyes, Gu Linchao was momentarily flustered.
He released her hand, turned around, and did not answer her question.
