Chapter 21 Pulling You into the Mire
Yan Yunshu ignored the cold hatred that flashed across Xu Jinghuai's eyes.
She smiled.
On a cold winter day, against the backdrop of snowflakes, this bright smile is like a blooming spring flower, bright and beautiful, and her red lips slightly parted.
"Then we have a deal, no regrets!"
Then he stretched out his finger and said, "Pink."
Xu Jinghuai's face froze.
He scanned her face and then looked away.
He said coldly, "No, it's childish." But he still extended his hand and cooperated with Yan Yunshu to complete the pinky promise.
Just like when she was a child, Yan Yunshu had such a pure and bright smile.
It was as if he saw her from the past, the sunny, lively, cute, smart and always smiling girl, whose bright smile once dispelled all the haze in the world for him.
He would always remember that when he first entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, he suffered the pain of losing his mother, and was heartbroken and silent until he met Yan Yunshu.
She always picked some unknown small flowers for him, collected various kinds of leaves, scooped up a pool of clear spring water, and then squatted in front of him and spoke in a crisp voice.
"Xu Jinghuai, be good and eat!"
Thinking of this, Xu Jinghuai couldn't help but feel ashamed.
How did he agree to play this childish pinky-pink game with Yan Yunshu? Too childish! ! ! !
The secret guard on the beam was already in a mess. My God, is this still our prince who is decisive, cold, arrogant and calm? ? ? ? ? ? ?
The compartment was quiet, with only the sound of two people breathing. After a long time, a gurgling sound was heard.
Yan Yunshu's face flushed red as she looked at Xu Jinghuai awkwardly.
"I'm hungry, can I have something to eat?"
Xu Jinghuai was silent for a moment and said, "Okay."
Then, a white shadow suddenly rushed in from nowhere, "Prince."
Xu Jinghuai said, "Serve the food."
"promise."
A white shadow swooshed out of the window on the other side and closed the window with a snap. Its movements were so fast that no one could match it. Yan Yunshu was amazed again and again!
Xu Jinghuai showed a mocking expression, "You want it too?"
"A secret guard like this? Of course I want one!" Yan Yunshu's eyes sparkled with stars.
Xu Jinghuai's face darkened. "It's just a dream. Dreams have everything."
Yan Yunshu was so choked up that she couldn't utter a word and was completely speechless.
After a while, Yan Yunshu couldn't help but feel funny when looking at the bowl of beef noodles in front of her.
"I thought that since you, Xu Jinghuai, have been granted a fiefdom and established your own palace, you are at least a prince of a country, and you should treat your childhood friends to a luxurious feast."
Xu Jinghuai started preaching with a cold face.
"Are you crazy? Don't you know that the national motto of our great Tianze is to respect frugality and cultivate virtue, cherish things and strengthen the country? We must be the five good citizens of Tianze and cannot abandon the good traditions and customs of our Tianze. Our ancestors have taught us..."
Yan Yunshu's mind was full of black lines. Great, very positive energy, but who could have known that the second prince of Tianze Kingdom, His Royal Highness Prince Huai, would be so long-winded?
"Okay, I understand." Yan Yunshu stretched out her hand and almost covered Xu Jinghuai's mouth, which made Xu Jinghuai finally shut up.
"Anyway, thank you. You stumbled upon my favorite food by accident."
Xu Jinghuai pretended to be surprised and said, "If I had known this, I wouldn't have given you this."
Yan Yunshu continued, "Xu Jinghuai, my favorite thing is indeed a bowl of fragrant beef noodles. Soft and sticky beef, delicious noodle soup, chewy noodles, and a sprinkle of chopped green onions, it tastes amazing."
As she spoke, she began to eat with big mouthfuls. It had been a long time since she had eaten such delicious food.
It wasn't just the few months of imprisonment, but also all these years. Because Xu Jingye didn't like beef, she almost completely gave up her favorite food and completely lost herself to cater to him.
She eats whatever he likes.
Whatever he hated to eat, she would never eat it again.
Thinking of this, her eyes turned red.
"It's just a bowl of beef noodles, is it worth your tears?"
"Yes." Yan Yunshu raised her head and looked at Xu Jinghuai, "I haven't eaten in a long time!"
"I didn't know your family was so poor that they couldn't even afford beef."
"Xu Jinghuai, it was my own choice not to eat." Yan Yunshu paused with the chopsticks in her hand.
Xu Jinghuai stopped replying and the scene fell silent for a while. He understood because Xu Jingye just happened to hate beef extremely.
Soon, Yan Yunshu finished a bowl of beef noodles. Her rosy face was full of satisfaction. She picked up the wet wipes on the table, wiped the corners of her mouth, and spoke to Xu Jinghuai seriously.
"Xu Jinghuai, thank you!"
"Oh, Yan Yunshu, please don't be so serious. This prince can't bear it."
"Xu Jinghuai, thank you for remembering what I like to eat."
Xu Jinghuai fell silent.
Yan Yunshu, have you forgotten how you hurt me in the past?
But why, why can't I refuse you?
"Xu Jinghuai, you haven't changed."
"changed."
"You're still the same as before, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart, saying one thing and thinking another..."
"I do not have."
"Xu Jinghuai, whether you accept it or not, thank you anyway."
Outside the window, the snow has stopped, and the huge city is covered in white. A white figure uses light skills to climb over the eaves and walls. Finally, he lands on the eaves of Caiyunfang and whistles a few rhythmically.
Xu Jinghuai's ears twitched and he said to Yan Yunshu.
"Yan Yunshu, I am very busy and cannot spend any more time with you. Do you have anything else to do? If not, I will reluctantly take you back home."
Hearing that they were going back to the Prime Minister's Residence, Yan Yunshu's face darkened. After thinking for a moment, she said, "May I ask a favor of your Highness?"
"explain."
"Tell my grandfather that I will visit him on the day of Minor Snow. Tell him not to worry about me and to rest well."
"Why don't you go and tell them yourself?"
"You can see that I'm injured."
"Yan Yunshu, don't you have a capable maid in your house who can deliver the letter? I am busy with all sorts of affairs, yet you treat me like a servant."
Xu Jinghuai's tone was cold.
"Don't bother your highness, Prince Huai, who is so busy with affairs of state. I will write a letter now and you can send someone to deliver it. You don't have to go in person."
"After not seeing you for so many years, I didn't realize you'd become so useless. All that eloquence, that witty tongue, that wealth of knowledge, you've swallowed it all, haven't you? I don't know who said you'd grow up to be the best female lawyer in Tianze, helping the poor people who can't afford lawyers to redress their grievances and settle cases, but now you can't even solve your own predicament..."
"Xu Jinghuai! You actually remember that childhood joke so clearly." Yan Yunshu interrupted him, "Will you help me?"
Xu Jinghuai's face was cold and he was silent for a moment.
"Write quickly."
She asked someone to bring paper and ink, and she spread out the rice paper and began to write, stroke by stroke. It was only a few words, but the more she wrote, the heavier and sadder she felt. All the things from her past life came to her mind one by one, and her tears fell one by one.
Despite her intense emotions, Yan Yunshu would glance at Xu Jinghuai from time to time.
Xu Jinghuai, are you ready? I'm going to drag you into the mire!
Xu Jinghuai, who knew nothing about it, just looked at her quietly. The cubicle was quiet, with her figure writing at the desk. He looked at her thin and stubborn back, and his mood was also complicated.
