The prince longs for me every night after mastering thought-reading Chapter 44 - 44 43 Your Highness is Bullying Me (Third Updat
Chapter 44: Chapter 43: Your Highness is Bullying (Third Update) Chapter 44: Chapter 43: Your Highness is Bullying (Third Update) The pastry lted in the mouth effortlessly, but he couldn’t taste a thing, and that was why he couldn’t eat his breakfast.
Xiao Jinyan nibbled on the pastries, watching Shen Chuwei, who was sound asleep, and for the first ti saw soone sleeping with their face down, her cheeks puffing out like a child’s.
Unknowingly, he had finished the pastries.
His empty stomach now filled, he felt less uncomfortable.
When Shen Chuwei woke up, she saw Xiao Jinyan’s handso face staring at her through her drowsy haze and thought she was hallucinating.
She rubbed her eyes, and when she opened them again, Xiao Jinyan’s handso face ca into sharp focus.
Inwardly, she couldn’t help but make a teasing complaint, You could have at least made a sound if you’re here.
Do you want to scare to death?
Frightened, Shen Chuwei got off the couch and gave a bow to Xiao Jinyan.
“Your Highness, when did you co?
Why didn’t you wake up?”
Xiao Jinyan replied indifferently, “I’ve been here for a while.
I saw you sleeping soundly, so I didn’t have Chun Xi wake you.”
“Did Your Highness co to discuss sothing with ?” Shen Chuwei lowered her eyelids and noticed that the white porcelain dish on the low table was empty, the three tea pastries gone.
She rubbed her eyes and confird it was indeed empty.
Chun Xi wouldn’t eat the tea pastries, so that left Xiao Jinyan as the only suspect.
So, he was sitting there, eating her tea pastries while watching her sleep?
Watching her sleep is one thing, but why did he have to eat her tea pastries?
Xiao Jinyan called out: “Shen Fengyi?”
It’s bad enough that he ate her tea pastries, but the least he could do was leave her a couple.
She hadn’t even gotten to taste them.
Xiao Jinyan frowned slightly, “Shen Fengyi?”
Shen Chuwei looked at Xiao Jinyan with a sense of grievance, “Your Highness, you’re being too bullying.”
Xiao Jinyan was taken aback at the sight of Shen Chuwei’s aggrieved expression.
“When have I ever bullied you?”
And he still says he hasn’t bullied her, even though he ate her tea pastries!
Shen Chuwei felt extrely wronged, but unfortunately, the man in front of her was the Crown Prince, whom she could neither scold nor touch; she could only silently endure this sense of grievance.
“Your Highness, did you co to look for for anything in particular?”
Shen Chuwei’s expression clearly read, I am very sad.
Xiao Jinyan didn’t know what he had done to upset her as he asked, “The autumn hunt is coming up.
Do you want to go?”
“I would like to, but…”
“But what?”
“I heard there are conditions to join the autumn hunt, and I am afraid I won’t et them.”
Xiao Jinyan pinched his brow, “There are conditions, to pretend to be my bodyguard.
If you don’t wish to go, then forget it.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Chuwei thought, How is that a condition?
If he had said so earlier, she would have agreed right away.
“I am willing.”
Xiao Jinyan looked up at Shen Chuwei.
Just a mont ago, her face was full of sorrow, but now it was bright and sunny.
“You don’t feel wronged?”
Shen Chuwei’s eyes curved with her smile, “How can it be wrong to follow Your Highness out into the world?
I couldn’t be happier.”
Xiao Jinyan reminded her, “Lady Wo Lan will also be going.”
Shen Chuwei had already guessed that Lady Wo Lan would go, for she was his favorite.
Where wouldn’t he take her?
“I understand.”
Xiao Jinyan realized that Shen Chuwei wasn’t surprised in the least, suddenly rembered that in Shen Chuwei’s eyes, Lady Wo Lan was his beloved, so she had long expected that he would take Lady Wo Lan with him.
Everyone in the East Palace thought that he favored Lady Wo Lan the most, and Xiao Jinyan was too lazy to explain.
“Let Chun Xi simr so porridge and prepare so side dishes.”
Shen Chuwei found that Xiao Jinyan treated Xiyun Pavilion like a restaurant, this ti directly ordering dishes.
Touching her stomach, she actually felt hungry too.
Shen Chuwei instructed Chun Xi to simr porridge and prepare so tasty side dishes.
When she ca back, she saw Xiao Jinyan had already taken off his shoes and was leaning against her cat pillow, with one hand propped against his forehead, asleep.
She tiptoed over and sat down on the couch, staring at the empty plate for a full minute.
Her three small tea pastries looked so pitiful, having been eaten by Xiao Jinyan.
She wondered whether Tao Chenghui still had tea pastries, it didn’t have to be Biyi Shuangfei; other kinds would do.
She lifted her head resentfully to look at Xiao Jinyan, who at the mont had his eyes tightly closed, his phoenix eyes long and narrow, and his thick eyelashes were by no ans shorter than hers.
His skin was so fair it was flawless, his nose bridge high, and his lips tightly closed.
The scar on his forehead had faded quite a bit.
She huffed to herself, no matter how handso he was, it couldn’t cover up the fact that he ate her tea pastries without her permission.
Not wanting to disturb Xiao Jinyan’s rest, Shen Chuwei felt wronged as she carried the empty plate out, taking care to close the carved wooden door behind her.
While Chun Xi was cooking the porridge, Shen Chuwei took so beef jerky and continued to eat as she admired the flowers.
A little Star of Bethlehem had been scattered under the trees so ti ago, and in the past two days, the flowers had all blood.
The purple Star of Bethlehem was still quite beautiful.
When Lady Wo Lan arrived, she saw Shen Chuwei sitting there eating sunflower seeds, “Lady Shen Fengyi, how leisurely and elegant you are!”
Shen Chuwei stood up when she saw Lady Wo Lan and bowed, “With nothing to do, I decided to crack so seeds.
Is there sothing you need, Sister Wo Lan?”
“Nothing much, just ca to have a look.” Lady Wo Lan took a few glances around Xiyun Pavilion and couldn’t resist teasing, “His Highness is so fond of you, why does he still let you live here?”
Shen Chuwei shook her head, “His Highness doesn’t favor .”
Lady Wo Lan gave Shen Chuwei a dismissive look, “Lady Shen Fengyi, you’re quite the jester.
His Highness has requested you to serve him in his chamber ti and again, yet you say he doesn’t favor you?
Do you take us for fools?”
Shen Chuwei was at a loss for words; indeed, she had slept with Xiao Jinyan, but it was just pure sleep, and she couldn’t say that.
Lady Wo Lan questioned further, “Do you know that Lady Wo Lan is to be the future Crown Princess?”
Shen Chuwei nodded, “What does that have to do with ?”
Lady Wo Lan said, “How can it not be related?
Yesterday was Lady Wo Lan’s birthday, didn’t you already know what gift His Highness was going to give Lady Wo Lan?
Did you purposely pick the sa one to give to Lady Wo Lan, with the intention of showing her up?”
Shen Chuwei realized, Lady Wo Lan had co to pick a quarrel.
“How would I know what His Highness intends to give?
Since Lady Wo Lan is suspicious, His Highness is resting inside the Pavilion.
Once His Highness wakes up, Lady Wo Lan can go ask him herself.”
“Don’t lie to , His Highness has been busy preparing for the autumn hunts these past few days, how could he have ti to co here?” Lady Wo Lan had made inquiries and laughed with a handkerchief in hand, “Right, you probably still don’t know that for this autumn hunt, His Highness intends to take Lady Wo Lan with him.
Don’t think that His Highness’s montary novelty towards you ans you are to be the Crown Princess.”
Shen Chuwei looked at Lady Wo Lan as one would look at a fool; it was normal for His Highness to take Lady Wo Lan on the autumn hunt.
She acted as if it were a huge secret.
She couldn’t be bothered with Lady Wo Lan and continued to sit in the rocking chair, eating her beef jerky.
Lady Wo Lan beca displeased at the sight and imperiously said, “You, a re Lady Shen Fengyi, lack a basic understanding of etiquette.
I haven’t sat down, how can you lie down?
Wo Lan, slap her face!”
Just as Wo Lan stepped forward, the tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open forcefully.
Xiao Jinyan cast a cold glance towards Lady Wo Lan, “This palace would like to see who dares to lay a hand on Shen Fengyi?”
