The queen is so good at teasing that she makes the abstinent prince tremble

Instead of being annoyed, Xiao Yuchen tightened his arms around Jiang Tangxi.

A hint of helplessness flashed across Jiang Tangxi's wide eyes, and she didn't even realize that she had gradually become accustomed to this sudden intimacy.

"You guys are getting more and more shameless."

She looked up and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xiao Yuchen's slightly pale face, and her brows couldn't help but frown.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

There was some concern in Jiang Tangxi's tone. She propped herself up and sat up, gently touching his forehead with her fingers, trying to feel if there was anything unusual.

Xiao Yuchen smiled slightly, his eyes flickering, and deliberately said lightly: "Nothing, I just didn't sleep well last night. Come, lie with me for a while, it's cold outside."

As he spoke, he gently patted the empty seat next to him.

Jiang Tangxi looked at him with mixed feelings.

Although he didn't say anything these days, he felt the unusual atmosphere in the mansion and the indescribable weirdness around Xiao Yuchen.

He still cares after all!

She sighed and finally lay back down obediently.

The room was so quiet that only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard. Xiao Yuchen closed his eyes and said in a low and gentle voice: "Yiyi, I haven't been able to accompany you these few days. Do you blame me?"

Jiang Tangxi felt nervous when he heard this, and blurted out, "A little bit."

As soon as she said this, she was stunned, her cheeks turned slightly red, and she secretly glanced at Xiao Yuchen's reaction.

Hearing this, Xiao Yuchen's lips curled up into a faint smile. That smile was very unrestrained, like the warmest sunshine in spring, as if the frost of the past few days had instantly melted because of Jiang Tangxi's simple two words.

He hugged her tightly and smiled, "I knew it...I won't do it again."

Jiang Tangxi felt a little uncomfortable with his sudden intimacy. She struggled to break free, but was held even tighter.

She simply gave up resistance and turned to teasing, "Why? People outside say that I am a beauty who brings disaster to you and caused you to lose your position as crown prince. Why, don't you blame me?"

"Why would I blame you?"

The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed, and Jiang Tangxi took the opportunity to ask, "You lost the position of Crown Prince, don't you feel unhappy? Don't you blame me?"

Xiao Yuchen shook his head gently, his eyes full of pampering: "Silly boy, how could I blame you? This is all my own choice and has nothing to do with you."

"So... have you been in a bad mood these days?"

"Does Xixi care?"

Jiang Tangxi said mischievously, "Humph, of course I care. After all, I rely on you to survive in this world, so you have to be responsible to the end!"

"Haha, then you better keep your word!"

She teased him deliberately: "You said you're not angry? The mansion has been haunted these past few days. The servants walked very lightly, afraid of disturbing something. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that you were in a bad mood. I thought you were going to take it out on them."

Xiao Yuchen chuckled and reached out to scratch Jiang Tangxi's nose: "I've been thinking about what you said these days. Didn't you say that we should wait until we are both tired of each other? I want to see if the person I like will get tired of me!"

Jiang Tangxi's heart trembled suddenly, just like the calm surface of a lake being stirred up by ripples caused by a sudden stone.

She didn't expect that her casual words could cause such a stir in his heart.

She raised her eyes and met Xiao Yuchen's deep eyes.

Where! It seems tender and persistent.

"Hey, don't think so much!" Jiang Tangxi tried to break the solemnity with a relaxed tone, but his voice unconsciously carried a hint of panic, "I've already said that we will break up when we are tired of each other. Who would take such words to heart and think about them over and over again!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yuchen raised a meaningful smile, "Yiyi, I have to take your words seriously. Otherwise, if you really throw me a divorce letter one day, I won't have anywhere to cry."

Jiang Tangxi was amused by his words, but couldn't help rolling his eyes.

When did this guy become so fragile?

Besides, wasn't she waiting for his divorce letter?

Why does this guy act like he wants to divorce me!!!

"Um.... Are you mistaken? I've already said that I'm waiting for your divorce letter... I feel like when you say this, I'm racking my brains every day to abandon you?"

"Isn't it? Who was it that vowed before that if we were no longer suitable for each other, we would go our separate ways?"

Xiao Yuchen deliberately put on a hurt expression, looking as innocent as possible, which made Jiang Tangxi laugh and cry.

"Then... then you are the one who gave me the divorce letter! I didn't say I wanted to give you a divorce letter!?"

Jiang Tangxi found a lame excuse, but secretly wondered in her heart why this guy thought she was a heartless man.

"Yes! It's not a divorce letter! It's a severance letter! What's the difference?"

"!!!!!!"

Xiao Yuchen sighed softly, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, then he collected his thoughts and said seriously: "Yiyi, if I really said I loved you that night, what would you do?"

These words were like a heavy hammer, striking Jiang Tangxi's heart without any warning.

She was stunned, and the air around her seemed to freeze, leaving only the sounds of their breathing intertwining in the air.

She had never thought about this question, and she never expected Xiao Yuchen to throw it to her so directly.

What if... fell in love?

After a while, Jiang Tangxi finally found his voice, which was trembling slightly.

"If...if we really fall in love, then let's give it a try. But you have to remember, if one day I find that I no longer love you, I hope we can face it openly and set each other free."

She thought about these words for a long time, not only to Xiao Yuchen, but also to herself!

After hearing this, Xiao Yuchen felt as if a huge weight had fallen off his heart, and he seemed to feel a lot more relieved!

He won't let this happen! He won't let Jiang Tangxi leave!

Even if she had to leave one day, she must take him with her!

He slowly approached Jiang Tangxi and could almost feel their breaths mingling together.

He murmured in a low voice: "Okay! Then you must remember what I said today."

It's just that Huanyu's book! He wants to take it!

then!

The next afternoon.

Jiang Tangxi originally wanted to go to the study to look through the ancient books.

But I don't want to...

All the books about phantom jade on the bookshelf are gone!

Jiang Tangxi went crazy!!

Grabbing Xiao Yuchen by the collar, he asked, "Second Prince...where is the book?"

"Anyway, I remembered it all! So... I put it away!"

"Put it away? Where?"

"My memory is not very good! I forgot! Maybe when I get tired of you, I will remember it!"

Even if he died, he would never let this day come to pass!!

"......." Jiang Tangxi rolled his eyes speechlessly!

Jiang Tangxi had a vague suspicion.

Does this guy know something?

Could it be that he knew that I was looking for the Sky Tourmaline?
