Chapter 21 – Fairy Tales Are All Lies (21)
Xiuyin’s azure eyes were bright, radiating a gentle glow, and a soft laughter unconsciously escaped from the corner of his lips.
It was seemingly unexpected, yet he felt it was somehow reasonable for him to do so.
This feeling was truly strange… but he didn’t want to let go.
The maid slowly furrowed her brows, “Do you even know what you’re saying? You were saved by the Second Prince, and you should obey his arrangements. Your words don’t sound ladylike at all.”
Did Princess Alyssa’s words earlier have any ladylike demeanor at all? Yan Luo pouted slightly; at least she knew some manners.
“As the fiancée of the Second Prince…”
“Stop, stop, stop!” Yan Luo widened her eyes slightly, “I’ve been following your arrangements for a long time, but does that mean I should marry him just because your Prince saved my life?”
“Moreover, speaking bluntly, when I was seeking help, the Empress and Andre just happened to be passing by.”
“And directly labelling me as Andre’s fiancée without consulting me. Did your country not require the consent of the person involved when finding a fiancée?”
Listening to everything, Xiuyin could naturally guess what Andre’s plan was.
Before, he didn’t care and even found it somewhat amusing. But now…
Looking at the figure in front of him, a glint of darkness crossed Xiuyin’s eyes.
The petite body, unexpectedly soft… the smooth sensation seemed to linger at his fingertips.
He wanted to touch again…
“Princess Yan Luo, please think carefully. Come back with me as soon as possible. Your Highness the Third Prince, shouldn’t you also be mindful of the impact?”
The maid was momentarily at a loss for words by Yan Luo, so she directly shifted the topic, focusing her gaze on Xiuyin.
After all, in her impression, the Third Prince was always weak and easily bullied, without any backstage, and was quite easy to handle in the palace.
Except for the budget for the Prince’s living expenses, this Prince seemed like an invisible figure in the palace.
But Xiuyin wasn’t paying attention to what she was saying; he was just looking at Yan Luo’s back.
He would just do what he wants, although he didn’t know what this feeling represented. Is it the elusive and so-called beautiful love?
Huh… how could that be possible?
He was well aware that such things didn’t belong to him. However, it didn’t matter. Keeping her by his side would clarify everything.
Thinking like this, Xiuyin raised his hand, hugged Yan Luo from behind, buried his head in her neck, completely concealing his expression. The golden, soft strands of hair gently brushed against Yan Luo, causing a slight itch.
The expressions of the person across from them changed completely.
“So soft,” Xiuyin sighed lightly, lifting his head slightly. With eyes carrying a soft smile, he looked at Yan Luo, sounding somewhat puzzled, “Why are you so soft?”
Yan Luo : … Is this also my fault?
The boy’s hair was soft, with a faint glow emanating from behind, outlining him with a golden edge. He wore a faint and pure smile, as if there were no traces of blackening. He looked at Yan Luo like this.
The true princess who could be hurt by a pea, delicate face, soft body, successfully stirred up turmoil in the kingdom, initiating changes that shouldn’t have come so soon.
Like that tiny pea capable of causing bruises all over.
