The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Not long after Nan Wangyu and Lu Lingxi went downstairs, Nan Wangyu explained to Ying Mo what he had asked her to do.

After listening to him, Lu Lingxi praised him, "You have a very clever mind. You made a net profit of more than 2,700 taels of silver with just a few words. However, you have already paid the crew members, but the money that the King of Qi lost to you has not yet been received. Aren't you afraid that he will find out what you did behind your back and then deny it?"

Nan Wangyu smiled and said, "He won't do that. He wants to save face."

Lu Lingxi was relieved and said happily, "Then let's go buy something. It's free money, so why not spend it?"

Lu Lingxi's idea was very pure. It was not that his family was short of money, but he would be happier spending the money that he got for free.

After a round of shopping, the most purchased items were Lu Lingxi's clothes, jewelry, food, and some toys that she thought were rare, which she bought for her little nephew.

As soon as he left the pastry shop, Lu Lingxi was attracted by the small stall at the door. On the chopping board were sachets with the characteristics of the Dragon Boat Festival, bracelets made of five-color silk threads, and some accessories and pendants that are also sold on ordinary days. The five-color bracelets are mainly red, which looks simple and festive.

Lu Lingxi sighed: "These bracelets are all very beautiful, I don't know which one to choose."

"Let me help you choose." After saying that, Nan Wangyu walked forward with a smile and chose a bracelet for Lu Lingxi that had relatively fine workmanship and was decorated with a small blessing bag.

Then, he gently reached out and tenderly took Lu Lingxi's soft little hand. He carefully put the exquisite and brightly colored bracelet on her wrist. At this moment, it seemed as if time had stopped and everything around them became dim. Only Lu Lingxi's fair and delicate skin and the bright and dazzling bracelet set off each other, emitting a charming glow.

The bracelet was like a bright pearl, inlaid on Lu Lingxi's white and delicate hand, which made her originally tender skin even more crystal clear, as tempting as a freshly peeled lychee. The sunlight shone down, shining on the bracelet and her hand, reflecting colorful light, like a dream, making people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

Nan Wangyu's deep and fiery eyes stared at Lu Lingxi, as if he could see through her. He couldn't help but gently caress Lu Lingxi's delicate hands. The delicate touch from his fingertips made his heart tremble slightly, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.

Lu Lingxi felt a current spread throughout her body, and the numb feeling made her feel weak. Her cheeks flushed, as tempting as a ripe apple. In a panic, she quickly pulled her hand back and turned away quickly, trying to hide her inner shyness and uneasiness.

However, her pounding heart could not calm down. In order to break the awkward situation, Lu Lingxi pretended to be calm and asked the stall owner: "Boss, how much is this bracelet?" Her voice was slightly trembling, but fortunately it did not attract too much attention from others.

The boss saw the two men's attire and knew they were not short of money, so he raised the price and said, "One tael of silver per piece."

Lu Lingxi did not bargain, but pointed at the sachet on the chopping board and asked, "Where is this sachet? How much is it?"

Seeing that she didn't bargain for the bracelet, the boss said, "It's also one tael of silver."

Lu Lingxi said straightforwardly: "I want both of them."

Then he turned back to Nan Wangyu and said, "Pay the money."

Nan Wangyu knew that the prices of these two items were high, usually they would only cost 20 or 30 coins, or even a few coins. However, since Lingxi liked them, he still paid for them readily.

The two of them had been wandering around the street for a long time. Before they knew it, the sun was rising higher and it was noon. It was almost time for lunch, so after a brief discussion, they decided to go to Jingtingxuan, the leader of the morning dragon boat race, to have a good meal.

Walking into Jingtingxuan, the restaurant was crowded and bustling, but fortunately there were still vacant private rooms to choose from. So they chose a private room with a quiet environment and sat down. After ordering a few exquisite and delicious dishes, they began to wait quietly for the delicious food to be served.

While waiting for the dishes to be served, Lu Lingxi's heart was beating like a deer, and she hesitated again and again. She tightly held the exquisite sachet in her hand, and her eyes occasionally glanced at Nan Wangyu, wanting to say something but stopping herself. Finally, after a fierce ideological struggle, she seemed to have made up her mind. She took a deep breath, slowly stretched out her hand, handed the sachet to Nan Wangyu, and lowered her voice, saying with a little shyness: "Here, this... is for you." After that, she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look directly into the other's eyes, and seemed a little nervous and expectant.

Nan Wangyu asked, "Is it for me?"

Lu Lingxi nodded.

Nan Wangyu: "I just helped you put on the colorful bracelet. Shouldn't you also help me put on the sachet? That's fair."

"I...I..." Although the kiss between the two of them by the river last time was over for her, she still instinctively resisted overly intimate contact.

Seeing Lu Lingxi in a dilemma, Nan Wangyu took the sachet and said with some disappointment: "Forget it, I'll do it myself."

Hearing Nan Wangyu's disappointment, Lu Lingxi felt sorry for him. When Nan Wangyu came to take the sachet, he withdrew his hand and whispered, "Let me help you tie it!"

Lu Lingxi lowered her head slightly, concentrating on fiddling with the sachet in her hand, looking so serious as if everything around her had nothing to do with her. Despite this, she could still keenly sense Nan Wangyu's fiery gaze always on her, like two burning flames, making her skin unconsciously flush with a layer of light red.

Not only that, she could also clearly feel the warmth from Nan Wangyu's every breath, just like a gentle spring breeze, gently brushing over her head. The warm air flowed slowly down, passing over her forehead, cheeks, and finally stopped at her fair neck, causing her to tremble slightly.

Gradually, the warm feeling became stronger and stronger, as if it was going to wrap her whole body in it. Lu Lingxi felt her heartbeat speeding up, as if a naughty deer was running rampant in her chest. Her originally pink cheeks were now like ripe apples, so beautiful that people couldn't help but want to take a bite.

It was under such pressure that Lu Lingxi helped Nan Wangyu tie the sachet. He whispered, "Okay!" and quickly withdrew his hand, as if his hand had been scalded by a red-hot iron pot.

Nan Wangyu replied happily: "Thank you, Lingxi."

Lu Lingxi shook her head to indicate that you were welcome. She felt that an awkward atmosphere was surrounding her.

Fortunately, the waiter came to serve the dishes at this time. After the dishes were served, the two began to eat, and the awkward atmosphere gradually disappeared.
