Little Zhao looked up curiously.

When Mrs. Chen heard her son's shameless words, she was not angry, but subconsciously looked at the princess. Seeing that the princess was shy and timid, she felt that something was wrong.

Then Chen Jingting was kicked again.

This time Chen Jingting didn't say anything, but silently put the mountain of food in front of Wen Xingchen next to him, and then served a bowl of mushroom soup to the princess.

"Mother's mushroom soup is incredible. Princess, try it."

Wen Xingchen tried it once and found it really good.

Wen Xingchen smelled it first and found it very fresh.

Then he took a bite.

"How is it? Is it to your taste?"

"It's really good."

Chen Jingting was a man who was not picky about food, and he quickly finished his meal.

Wen Xingchen ate very elegantly, chewing his food slowly and carefully, which was a pleasure to watch.

Of course, Chen Jingting had no time to enjoy it, but looked at his mother.

Mrs. Chen was about to gossip something more when her son asked, "Mother, what else are you looking forward to?"

Mrs. Chen said with a slight embarrassment, "Well, Fourth Brother, Mother is also worried about you."

"Well, so you don't trust your son?"

"Not at all."

"How about letting the princess tell you?"

Wen Xingchen felt that Chen Jingting and Mrs. Chen got along very easily.

"So... tell me?"

Chen Jingting was so angry that he wanted to run away.

"Princess, let's go back. We can't stay here anymore."

Wen Xingchen stood up obediently. Madam Chen couldn't help but stand up as well, and hurriedly explained, "Sit down. Mother trusts you. The princess hasn't finished her meal yet."

"Let's go back and eat."

Then Chen Jingting took the princess away.

After they left, Mrs. Chen's suspicions began to return.

"Chunxiang, don't you think they're being too obvious?" Zhao Chunxiang was the name of the younger Zhao family. "Do you think the princess will accompany the fourth child in the play?"

"Aunt, the princess can tolerate Fourth Cousin being so naughty. She must really love Fourth Cousin."

"right."

Wen Xingchen left the main courtyard and walked silently towards Jubao Garden.

The pace is neither fast nor slow.

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Chen Jingting thought she was angry.

"Princess, are you angry?"

Wen Xingchen asked him, "Do you speak so arrogantly to everyone?"

Chen Jingting shook his head.

"Then why are you here today?"

"Those rumors were the result of my mistakes when I was young and ignorant. Mother and the others didn't believe in our love, so I had no choice."

Is this what Wen Xingchen cares about?

"What do you mean when you say that if you... this princess will not be able to bear it?"

Chen Jingting: ...

I thought you were really angry, but it turns out you were waiting for me here.

You really are... both infuriating and funny.

Wen Xingchen didn't know that he had already judged her in his heart, and continued: "One should be more realistic in life."

He smiled helplessly and said, "I thought the princess disliked me for being such a jerk."

"You are a bit of a jerk. You shouldn't say things you shouldn't say in front of your second sister-in-law. Do I have no shame?"

Chen Jingting suddenly said seriously, "Princess, when you married me, did you understand me?"

"..."

"Perhaps this is what a true minister is."

Is this the real Chen Jingting?

"Are you saying that the you I knew before was fake? Could it be that you are a twin, and the one before was your older or younger brother?"

Chen Jingting shook his head.

"it's all me."

Wen Xingchen had to admit that he had made a mistake.

She really doesn't know Chen Jingting well enough now.

But why did she say that to herself?

Did you see something?

Sure enough, whether it is the current Chen Jingting or the previous one, it is difficult to deal with him.

"So, why are you avoiding my words? Are you trying to escape?"

Can this princess let you escape?

Humph, you underestimated me.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Wen Xingchen couldn't help but shiver, feeling a little cold.

Chen Jingting noticed that the princess was acting strangely, so he stepped forward to block the wind for her.

He reached out and held the princess's hand, which was ice cold.

He looked at Yingying and asked, "Why didn't you bring a hand warmer for the princess?"

Yingying shook her head.

"Don't go get ready yet."

"Yes."

Chen Jingting said:

"Let's go back. If Mother's people see us, they'll say we had a quarrel."

Wen Xingchen refused to give in, "You haven't answered me yet, are you trying to avoid me?"

Chen Jingting: “…”

Chen Jingting felt that Wen Xingchen was noisy, so he bent down and picked up Wen Xingchen horizontally.

"Princess, could you please shut up?"

Wen Xingchen was held in his arms, feeling his thumping heartbeat, beat by beat... and the hard tendon meat...

When I got back, the house was already lit with charcoal fire and was warm.

Wen Xingchen was put down by Chen Jingting. She took off her cloak and handed it to Yingzi, who took it and hung it beside her.

"Princess, has the Prince Consort finished his meal in the main courtyard? Would you like to eat something else?"

Wen Xingchen was not full, but eating was not important now.

Just as he was about to tell her not to, Chen Jingting said, "Prepare some of the princess's favorite dishes and serve them up."

Yingzi looked at Wen Xingchen, and seeing that the princess didn't say anything, she went downstairs to prepare.

Chen Jingting went to take a bath.

When Yingzi saw the princess being brought back, she looked into Yingying's eyes and silently asked what was going on.

Yingying signaled her to stay calm.

Chen Jingting came out of the shower quickly, wearing only a single layer of clothing, with his black hair casually tied up, water still dripping from the ends of his hair. He himself might not realize it, but he was so unrestrained that it made people immersed in him.

He walked towards us step by step, exuding the smell of pine wood.

That was the smell of her special spice.

And he is using...

It really proves the saying: beauty is a feast for the eyes.

Wen Xingchen calmly waved to Yingying and the others, signaling them to go down.

"Yes."

Chen Jingting interrupted, "Bring the food up first and give the princess a snack."

"I'm not hungry."

Chen Jingting whispered, "You'd better eat something. I'm afraid the princess will run out of energy soon."

Wen Xingchen: "I'm afraid you're the one who didn't leave?"

Chen Jingting felt provoked.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't dwell on it.

Instead, he waited for someone to bring the food, and then he ate while staring at Wen Xingchen.

Yingying and others were waiting outside.

Yingzi asked curiously, "Tell me quickly, how did the prince consort come back with the princess in his arms?"

Yingying told her everything that happened on the way, and Yingzi immediately felt that the prince consort and the princess were very loving and she was very happy.

"However, Madam Chen has gone to great lengths to test the princess and her husband's life."

"Should we spread the word?"

Yingzi shook her head.

"That can't happen. Our mission is to protect the princess from harm. If someone uses this to frame the princess, it will be more harm than good."

"I mean to let out some... well, things we don't know."

"for example?"

"For example, Nanny Yu is worried about the princess's health and won't let the prince consort get close to her...but the prince consort can't help himself and outsmarts Nanny Yu to get close to the princess?"

Yingzi: “…”

Cough

These words were heard by Nanny Yu who happened to pass by, and she tapped the two men on the forehead.

"What nonsense are you two talking about? The princess and her husband are in love, how can I stop them?"

"Forgive us, Madam Yu. We were just talking nonsense."

"Go, go, go, it's time to go back and rest. We'll stay here and guard it."
