Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chu Yueli finally managed to leave the Star-Picking Tower and board the carriage.

Unexpectedly, there was another person inside the carriage: Qin Muxue.

She then remembered that in the morning, Qin Muxue had pestered Lu Yunfei to go out, and she was the one who helped her.

"Candied fruit?" Chu Yueli smelled the sweet aroma as soon as it was served. At this moment, she not only didn't want to eat it, but she even felt a little nauseous.

Lu Yunfei got angry as soon as he saw her. He grabbed the bags of candied fruit and threw them at her, about to start cursing.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yueli picked up the candied fruit and threw it aside with a look of disgust.

She wasn't just disgusted; she genuinely felt nauseous.

I have absolutely no idea why, but the smell of the candied fruit almost made me throw up, which is why I quickly threw it away.

But this action infuriated Lu Yunfei to the point of almost going crazy.

"Witch, what do you mean?" It was clearly her who said she wanted candied fruit, so he went out to buy it for her. He even patiently walked around several times to buy everything she wanted.

Now that the candied fruit has been given to her, she looks like she wants to vomit just looking at it, showing such disgust!

She really went too far!

Chu Yueli knew he had misunderstood and wanted to take the candied fruit back, but before she could even reach out, the sweet smell made her stomach churn again.

Lu Yunfei grew angrier the more he looked at it, and remained silent the entire way.

Upon returning to the Prince's residence, he instructed the gatekeeper to notify him if the Princess went out, and then left directly.

Chu Yueli was speechless.

So, does this mean she's been confined to her quarters? But doesn't he realize that a mere few guards can't possibly protect her?

If she really wanted to leave, she could do so anytime.

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry with Brother Yunfei." After coughing twice and catching her breath, Qin Muxue smiled and explained to Chu Yueli, "Brother Yunfei walked around the streets several times to buy all these candied fruits for you. Where can you find any sour bayberries this season? But he still managed to find them."

He asked someone to soak the dried bayberries and make them sour.

When Qin Muxue explained it to her, her eyes were full of envy.

"I've never seen Brother Yunfei put so much effort into anyone before. You're the first." However, Qin Muxue also knew that all of this was for Cousin Mo.

"He was genuinely afraid you wouldn't want your older cousin anymore." Qin Muxue still couldn't help but laugh when she said this.

Her brother Yunfei is so cute.

Chu Yueli looked at the packets of candied fruit in Zisu's hand.

Zisu immediately found the bag of sour bayberries.

It was indeed made from dried bayberries, so of course it wasn't as delicious as fresh ones. But in this season, there aren't any fresh bayberries available, so it's really not easy to make it this good.

Even Zisu couldn't help but glare at Chu Yueli: "Miss, that's really going too far!"

"I didn't..." But when Zisu handed the bag over, Chu Yueli couldn't help but take a half step back to avoid it.

"No... I don't know why, I can't stand this smell..." After thinking for a moment, she said, "Maybe I ate too much for lunch today, and now the sweet smell makes me feel a bit nauseous."

She waved her hand and glared at Zisu: "Take it further away... no, help me put it away, I'll eat it later."

Right now, I really can't eat anything, and I can't even stand the smell.

She looked at Qin Muxue: "Xue'er, are you feeling unwell again today? You look terrible! Tell me honestly, did you vomit blood today?"
