The Moon is Full in the Traveling House

"Thank you, Miss Xiao. I am really ashamed. I was born in the countryside and have never seen the world, let alone the rules and etiquette here. I am afraid of offending you accidentally, so I dare to ask Lord Xiao for some advice." Su Lun looked shy.

Xiao An Ning couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Mr. Su, you look so gentle and refined, which is completely different from the heroic and fearless appearance in the battle just now! However, the capital is indeed a place where powerful people gather, and it is normal for you to be worried. But if there is something you don't understand, it would be better to ask me directly. After all, Commander Xiao has always been a taciturn person, and it is not easy to get him to take the initiative to explain!"

At this moment, Xiao Yu, who was standing aside, secretly complained in his heart. He thought that he was just a little introverted and didn't talk much, so how could he be described as a "dumb person"? But then he thought again, this second young lady has always been quirky and lively, and perhaps in her eyes, most people in the world are dull and boring. Xiao Yu shook his head helplessly, with a bitter smile on his face, and finally chose to remain silent.

"Thank you, Second Miss." Su Lun smiled slightly.

"Ouch, I've gone off topic. Eat something first. You'll have to take medicine later. You're injured, so you need to eat light food. Lord Ye specially had someone cook some black fish. This black fish is simply a magic weapon for healing wounds! There are also this steamed chicken with vinegar and cold-mixed black fungus. They are very nutritious and will be of great benefit to your injuries. You should try them." Without waiting for Su Lun to speak, Xiao An Ning introduced some dishes and motioned for Su Lun to eat.

"Thank you, Second Miss." Su Lun smiled slightly.

Su Lun's appearance is impeccable. His eyebrows are sharp, his eyes are bright, and his facial features are deep and three-dimensional, just like a painting carefully painted by a master. Those eyes are bright and deep, as if they can see through people's hearts, making people's hearts ripple at first sight. The high bridge of the nose adds a bit of firmness and confidence to him. The distribution of facial features is just right, showing his handsome and unrestrained posture. Although his face is a little pale, at this moment, the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, revealing a warm and charming smile, like a spring breeze. Xiao Anning, who was sitting opposite him, was moved by this smile at this moment, and her heart lake was rippling, her heartbeat was like a deer, and she was a little at a loss for a moment. She calmed down and said uncomfortably: "Then you eat first, I'll go out first."

After saying this, he left in the same hurry as when he came. But when he reached the door, he turned back and said, "I have been talking for so long, but I still haven't asked for your name, sir?"

"Haha, I'm Su Lun."

Xiao An Ning was dazzled by this smile again, and forced herself to concentrate and said, "Su Lun, I'll remember this."

After saying this, he left as if his feet were greased.

Su Lun couldn't help laughing when he saw this. This second lady is really an interesting person! His eyes fell on the exquisite dishes in front of him. Thinking back to the woman's smiling face just now, he felt a little strange in his heart, and his throat began to become dry. It must be because he was hungry for too long! Su Lun comforted himself, silently picked up the bowl and chopsticks and began to enjoy the food.

After eating and drinking, a servant from the prefecture came in with a bowl of medicine. Su Lun thanked him quickly, took the bowl and drank it all. However, the next second his face became very ugly, and his whole face wrinkled. This medicine is too bitter! Su Lun secretly complained in his heart.

"Pfft!"

Su Lun turned around and saw Xiao An Ning, who had come back from nowhere and was standing at the door. She looked at him with a joking look on her face and said softly, "So you are also afraid of taking bitter medicine? Sorry, I don't mean to laugh at you, but I am also most afraid of taking medicine." After saying that, she wrinkled her nose, as if she recalled some painful experience, and then took out a small paper bag from her bosom like a magic trick, and handed it to Su Lun carefully, "This is Tang Ji's candied fruit, I'll give it to you, eat a few and it won't be bitter anymore..."

Su Lun looked at the eccentric girl in front of him with some surprise, and a warm feeling surged in his heart, but he still politely declined, "Thank you for your kindness, Second Miss. Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease. You will get used to it once you get used to it. Besides, a gentleman does not take away what others like. You should keep this candied fruit for yourself..."

"Oh, why are you like this? You keep thanking me as soon as you speak. They're just some candied fruits, not a rare thing. I have plenty of them. Just keep them." Xiao An Ning pouted in dissatisfaction, staring at Su Lun with her big eyes, as if waiting for his response.

Su Lun was amused by her cute appearance and said with a smile: "In that case, it would be disrespectful to refuse it. Thank you for your generous gift, Miss." After that, he gently took the paper bag, smelled the faint fragrance coming from it, and his mood became cheerful.

"That's how it should be." When Xiao An Ning saw Su Lun accept the candied fruit, she smiled happily, her eyes curved into crescents.

"Eat two quickly, and it won't be bitter anymore after you finish it." Xiao An Ning said with excitement and anticipation.

Looking at the girl in front of him with an expression that said "I won't give up until she eats it", Su Lun reluctantly opened the wrapping paper and took a bite carefully.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Xiao An Ning blinked her big eyes and asked expectantly.

"Hmm...very sweet." Su Lun replied softly.

"Tang Ji's candied fruits are very famous! When you arrive in Beijing, I will definitely take you to try other ones if I have the chance~" Xiao An Ning said enthusiastically.

"Then I'd like to thank you, Miss Second." Su Lun thanked her shyly. In his previous life, although he often received love letters from girls, due to his poor family background, he always focused on studying. When he had free time, he would accompany his grandmother to set up a stall, and he didn't have much time to spend with girls. After crossing into this world, he had almost no contact with girls. Faced with such a warm invitation from the girl in front of him, Su Lun couldn't help feeling a little shy, and a slight blush appeared on his cheeks.

"By the way, I've been awake for so long, and I want to go and pay a visit to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Ye. I wonder if it's convenient?" Su Lun changed the subject and asked softly.

Xiao An Ning frowned, a hint of worry in her eyes: "But your injury..." She seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Su Lun smiled slightly and said firmly: "It's okay. I feel much better after taking the medicine. Besides, my injury doesn't affect my walking..."

Xiao An Ning sighed and shook her head helplessly: "But the doctor said that you'd better rest and recuperate. It would be bad if the wound is affected again. Don't worry, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince won't blame you. Maybe His Royal Highness will come over soon." She tried to comfort Su Lun and told him not to worry too much.

However, Su Lun still seemed a little hesitant. He scratched his head and muttered to himself, "Is this... a little rude?" After all, he was not familiar with the rules between the powerful and the rich. Although the original owner's family was relatively well-off when he was young, there was still a big gap compared to the real powerful families. This was Su Lun's first time dealing with a big shot, and he felt that it was always right to be cautious.

"Just put your mind at ease. Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is of noble status, he is approachable and easy to get along with. Besides, His Royal Highness admires you very much, so there will be no problem."

"The Second Miss seems to know the Crown Prince very well?" Su Lun showed a little surprise.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been highly praised. This is common knowledge in the capital. Moreover, His Royal Highness is engaged to my sister. I used to accompany my sister to the palace to visit the Queen, so I know a thing or two..." Xiao An Ning said softly.

Hearing this, Su Lun was shocked. He realized that the gentle and dignified Miss Xiao was actually the future Crown Princess! She really had the temperament of a mother of the country.

Just as the two were chatting excitedly - of course, it was mainly Xiao Anning who was talking and Su Lun who was listening - Xie Tianlin, Xiao Anya and Ye Yaowen who was following Xie Tianlin came over together.
