Every time the prince opens his eyes, he sees

The two of them had such a big fight last night, but the next day Xie Qingchen came over to have breakfast with her as if nothing had happened.

But this time Lu Yaoyao did not mock him.

Xie Qingchen found a topic to talk about, "Yaoyao, the weather is nice today. We have had breakfast, how about going out for a walk later?"

"Ah."

It's good to go out and get some fresh air.

After breakfast, the two of them walked out of the inn.

For convenience, Lu Yaoyao changed into men's clothes.

She was naturally beautiful, and less cold and stern than Xie Qingchen, which made the young women on the street look at her frequently, and some even turned back.

Xie Qingchen's face darkened visibly. Not only did he have to be wary of men, but now he had to be wary of women too, right?

"I bought you a veil, put it on." He passed by this stall, bought one, and was about to put it on Lu Yaoyao, but she dodged him, "You're crazy, I won't wear this. If you're so afraid of me being seen, then don't let me out!"

Seeing that things were about to get tense again, Qingfeng quickly tried to smooth things over, "Master, look, there's a wedding ball being thrown over there to choose a husband. How about we join in the fun?"

Xie Qingchen looked in the direction Qingfeng pointed, and sure enough, he saw a high platform in front of him, surrounded by a crowd of people watching the excitement, and it was very lively.

He nodded slightly, took Lu Yaoyao's hand, walked through the crowd, and headed towards the platform where the bouquet was to be thrown.

Lu Yaoyao was pulled by Xie Qingchen, and her small hand was wrapped in his big hand. The warm and dry touch made her feel a little confused.

She couldn't help but think of the countless times they had held hands, but the sweetness of that time was in stark contrast to the alienation now.

She wanted to break free, but inexplicably she was greedy for this moment of tenderness. While she was hesitant and dazed, Xie Qingchen had already led her off the stage.

The three of them found a place with a wide view and stood still.

There was a woman standing on the stage, dressed in gorgeous clothes. She had a rosy face and bright eyes. She was holding a hydrangea in her hand and looking at the people below with a smile.

"It's started!" A man in the audience shouted excitedly when he saw the woman raise her hand slightly.

Sure enough, with a gentle wave of the woman's hand, a bright red hydrangea was thrown down from the stage, drawing a graceful arc in the air.

The crowd suddenly became excited and reached out to take it. The scene was in chaos.

Xie Qingchen's original intention was to distract Lu Yaoyao and he had no intention of snatching the hydrangea.

The lady couldn't resist his good eyesight and immediately fell in love with him in the crowd.

The hydrangea fell squarely into Xie Qingchen's arms.

Seeing this, the maidservant on the stage smiled brightly and shouted, "Congratulations to this young man in white for winning the embroidered ball! Congratulations, young man!"

The people around also cast envious glances, and some even started to jokingly ask Xie Qingchen to go on stage to marry the woman.

Xie Qingchen didn't care about others and subconsciously looked at Lu Yaoyao.

I hope to see even a hint of reluctance or jealousy on her face.

But Lu Yaoyao remained calm, with amusement in her eyes, as if she was just watching a show.

But only she herself knows that she is not as free and easy as she appears.

When she saw the hydrangea thrown into Xie Qingchen's arms, she suddenly felt an indescribable jealousy.

Xie Qingchen was extremely disappointed when he didn't see the emotion he wanted on Lu Yaoyao's face, but he still couldn't use other women to anger her. What he said last night was enough to make him regret it.

"Miss, you are so kind, I feel unworthy of it, and I have no intention of marrying you. I am returning the favor and hope you can find another good husband." Xie Qingchen stepped on tiptoe, rose up, and threw the hydrangea back.

The hydrangea landed steadily in the arms of the lady on the stage.

She was surprised, happy and angry.

The man she liked was not only handsome, but also had great martial arts skills.

If she could have him as her son-in-law, she wouldn't have to worry about her Chen family being bullied, and she, as an only daughter, wouldn't be able to support herself.

But the other party didn't mean that and threw the hydrangea back directly.

Before she could react, the two maids beside her jumped off the platform and stood in front of Xie Qingchen who was pulling Lu Yaoyao to leave.

"Sir, since you have taken my lady's embroidered ball, you must marry her. If you insist on refusing, we will have no choice but to kill you."

"Just you two?" Xie Qingchen's eyes flashed, and he gently protected Lu Yaoyao behind him. His eyes were like knives, sweeping across the two maids in front of him who seemed weak but actually had hidden sharpness.

The two maids looked at each other, obviously not expecting Xie Qingchen to refuse so straightforwardly and not be afraid of their threats at all.

One of the maids snorted coldly, and quickly flipped her hands. Two short and sharp daggers slipped out from her sleeves. With a flash of cold light, they went straight for Xie Qingchen's vital points.

Xie Qingchen dodged the attack lightly with a flick of his left hand, and at the same time, he waved his left hand, and an invisible wave of internal force spread out, pushing the two maids back several steps.

His face was stern, and his tone was filled with unquestionable majesty. "I'm saying this for the last time, get out of the way."

The young lady from the Chen family's face changed drastically when she saw this. She had never seen anyone who could resolve the attacks of the maids around her so easily. You know, these two maids were trained by her father since they were young. They had extraordinary skills and were also well-known in the world.

But the more this happened, the more she realized the excellence of the man she liked, and the more reluctant she was to let him go.

She rushed over from the platform with dozens of guards.

"Sir, my Chen family is not only one of the most powerful families in Heping Town, but also a well-known and influential family. Since you took my bouquet but refused to marry me, how can the Chen family hold its head high in Taiping Town in the future?"

"That's your business, not mine. I didn't reach out to grab the hydrangea. And don't think I don't know. The hydrangea was tampered with and fell into my arms. It's impossible for me to throw it away immediately."

In other words, as long as Miss Chen takes a fancy to someone, she can be sure that the hydrangea will fall into that person's arms.

"So what? No one has dared to reject the Chen family and my young lady. It is a great blessing for you to marry my young lady. How dare you refuse it?" The maid beside her said arrogantly.

Lu Yaoyao felt so worried about the young lady from the Chen family that she broke into a cold sweat.

No matter how powerful you are, you have offended the wrong person.

"Stop talking nonsense. Since you want to play hardball, I will rewrite the history of your Chen family today."

The two sides engaged in a battle.

Xie Qingchen and Qingfeng were as fast as lightning, and their moves were so fast that it was hard to keep up.

In a short while, all the guards brought by Miss Chen fell down.

His martial arts skills were so high that the crowd watching the fight around him was amazed.

The young lady of the Chen family turned even paler when she saw this. She obviously had not expected that Xie Qingchen was not only a martial arts expert, but also ruthless in his attack.

She hurriedly shouted, "Sir, if you are willing to marry me, my Chen family is willing to give you half of our wealth and agree to let you bring this woman with you into the Chen family. However, I must be the eldest and she must be the youngest!"
