"Your Highness." Yu Rou raised the corners of her eyes, revealing a hint of nervousness and anticipation, like an ignorant and harmless rabbit.
The prince looked at her and asked, "When did you meet Mr. Guhe?"
"So Your Highness also knows Mr. Gu He." Yu Rou's eyes were bright and clear.
"Um."
Seeing her calm face and clear eyes, the prince thought: Is this really a coincidence?
"The teacher at home went back to his hometown, and my two brothers were left without a teacher. Later, I asked someone to find out about Mr. Guhe, and then we went to ask him to come to our house to teach." Yu Rou's voice was small, neither hurried nor slow, and sounded very soft.
"Has Mr. Guhe agreed?" The prince had received the news a long time ago, but still asked.
"Well, I refused several times before, but I agreed later." Yu Rou smiled happily.
The prince suddenly lost interest in asking further, but the person in front of him gave him an inexplicable feeling. He had asked Bai Ye to investigate before, but apart from this incident, he didn't find anything wrong. The servants in the Yu Mansion said that there was nothing wrong with Yu Rou, except that her temper was a little better, but this didn't mean anything.
Is it possible that she was reborn like herself?
The prince suspected this, but he couldn't ask directly.
"Your Highness..." Yu Rou suddenly looked at him hesitantly, wanting to say something.
"What's the matter?" asked the prince.
"Is the prince still angry? About what happened last time." Yu Rou lowered her eyes, her tone a little low.
The prince was stunned. He didn't expect her to bring this up. "Why do you ask?"
"Because the prince was very angry last time, he hasn't looked for me these days." Yu Rou's lost voice was like a stone, pressing on the prince's heart, a little heavy.
"I've been a bit busy lately." The prince was about to say something sarcastic, but for some reason he swallowed it back.
Yu Rou bit her lip, looking unconvinced.
"What did you hear?" The prince approached her and heard her soft tone, feeling a little irritated for some reason.
Yu Rou shook her head.
The prince wanted to see a hint of hypocritical emotion in her eyes, but after staring for a long time, he found nothing.
After a while, Yu Rou said, "If the prince is tired of you, don't feel embarrassed. It's okay with me. You can ask the emperor to cancel the engagement."
Yu Rou's eyes were moist and sparkling with a crystal-clear luster. She looked like she was about to cry but was trying to pretend to be strong, which was really adorable.
The prince was stunned. He had never expected that Yu Rou would take the initiative to bring up the matter of breaking off the engagement.
Thinking of what Bai Ye told him, that Prince Guangcheng had given her many gifts last time and also gave her another painting given by the emperor, the prince couldn't help but wonder if she was beginning to favor Prince Guangcheng.
But this contradicted his impression of her.
Isn't she vain and wants to marry the future emperor?
Can Prince Guangcheng give her what she wants?
It's not that he didn't see that the Prince of Guangcheng had been hiding his strength and pretending to be stupid and incompetent, but his identity meant that he had to bear this title for the rest of his life. In the eyes of outsiders, he was just a philandering and incompetent prince.
If it wasn't because of the Crown Prince of Guangcheng, then who else could it be?
Qin Shen?
The prince thought of the way Qin Shen looked at her that day at Fuyunju. Even a fool could see the admiration in his eyes.
But asking her to give up her status as Crown Princess for Qin Shen is even more impossible.
The prince suddenly felt very confused, and the memories in his mind were mixed together, giving him a headache.
Ever since his rebirth, he has suffered from headaches. Whenever he thinks too much, his head will feel uncomfortable.
Yu Rou continued, "As long as it's good for the prince, I'm willing to do anything."
Her eyes were sincere and full of affection. The prince paused and was involuntarily attracted by her eyes.
The prince's heart was in turmoil, and he had many thoughts in his mind.
Did he misunderstand her? Why did she look at him with such affectionate eyes?
Yu Rou suddenly took the initiative to hug him, looking at him with gentle eyes, "Your Highness."
She clutched the clothes on his back tightly with her fingers and slowly buried her head in the prince's chest. Her breath was so hot that it made his chest feel hot.
The prince shuddered and tensed up, wanting to push her away, but when he raised his hand, he froze, his hand hanging in mid-air, hovering over her head, almost touching her.
When he realized this, his cheeks flushed and his breathing became irregular.
Many fragments flashed through his mind, light and shadow intertwined, and he could not forget the things in his previous life.
It was clearly she who abandoned him. She is a hypocritical woman.
The prince told himself silently.
"Your Highness, will you leave me?"
She raised her head and looked him straight in the eyes.
The roots of the prince's ears turned red. Yu Rou noticed this and continued, "I don't want to affect His Highness, so I've been working hard. I really... really... want to be with His Highness."
The prince's eyes became blurred and he avoided her. Yu Rou felt his body tremble slightly.
She was suddenly pushed away. The prince took a few steps forward, his back to her, and took a deep breath. His forehead was red and sweaty. He stopped at the door and said in a panic, "You think too much. I won't cancel the engagement. I have something else to do. I'll leave first. He Ning will be here soon."
"Your Highness!" Yu Rou hurriedly called him.
The prince's foot seemed to be glued to the ground as soon as it was raised. "What's the matter?"
"Your heart was beating so fast just now."
The prince suddenly clenched his hands, took a deep breath, seemed to hear his heart beating, and then walked away quickly without looking back.
