A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

On the street, Xin Moyan and Cailian walked and chatted. They were planning to go to Yunxianglou to have dinner with Hua Buyu. Although Yunxianglou was still someone's property, she was only going there to eat and it had nothing to do with him.

"Miss, please don't wander off like this anymore. The young master isn't here. What would he do if something happened to you?"

"I know! I definitely won't do that again next time. Speaking of which, my brother has been gone for six or seven days, and I don't know when he will come back."

She really missed her brother. She wondered what the climate was like on the frontier. Although her brother was a military general, he had a refined and elegant demeanor and such good skin. She was really worried that he was suffering from the elements and going hungry on the frontier.

“Miss, in the past, the young master would only come back once every ten days or half a month, and sometimes it would be a year or half a year. However, he would usually return to the capital within one or two months. I just don’t know if he can make it back before next month?”

This piqued Xin Moyan's curiosity. "Cailian, is there anything planned for next month?"

"Miss, next month is the National Assembly, which takes place every five years. The other three countries will all send envoys to visit us then. It will be quite a lively event."

"The National Assembly?"

"Mmm! It's Yuanqi's biggest festival..."

Cailian was explaining the details of the National Assembly to her when she suddenly noticed a large crowd gathered in front of them, making a ruckus. They followed them to the side and saw a burly man holding a boy, cursing and swearing.

From afar, the boy was dressed in a peach-colored brocade robe with cloud patterns. He was not wearing a crown, and a golden hairpin held his long hair in a half-updo. His appearance was not very familiar, but he was tall and thin, unlike a typical adult male who was tall and strong.

"Miss, this person is bullying the weak!" Cailian said indignantly. Over the years, she had witnessed her young mistress being bullied by those people, and she couldn't stand this kind of situation.

Xin Moyan patted the back of her hand to calm her down, "Don't be impatient, let's observe first."

"You little brat, you dare to take my food even though you have no money? You're really courting death! Everyone in the neighborhood knows my name, Zhang Erdao. How dare you rob me in public? I'm going to report you to the authorities and give you a good beating!"

The boy's back was turned to them, and Xin Moyan only heard a clear and bright voice, tinged with a hint of grievance, like a stream flowing gently in an empty valley...

"I...I don't know how to pay."

The burly man laughed so hard his face turned bright red, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Hahaha~ Listen to this, everyone! This guy is such a big person, and he still says he doesn't know that you have to pay when you buy things. Even a half-grown child knows to pay when you buy things at the market. I don't know what this kid ate to grow up like this. He's really stupid!"

Hahaha~~~

His insults drew laughter from the onlookers, as Zhang Erdao, the businessman, had a point.

"You...I..." The boy's ears turned bright red, and he stammered for a long time, unable to speak.

"What do you mean, 'you'? If you don't return the money for this meat bun to me today, I'll definitely take you to the authorities!"

“Miss, that young master seems quite naive. He’s probably some rich kid who never leaves the house and forgot his money!” Cailian tugged at her sleeve, looking quite worried about the boy’s situation.

She winked at Cailian, and together they took a few steps forward, standing behind the boy, their tone crisp and decisive.

"I'll pay off whatever he owes you."

Upon hearing that bright and cheerful voice, the young man turned around, and when Xin Moyan took a closer look at his appearance, she was instantly stunned by his beauty.

His eyebrows were like spring water and peach blossoms, his skin was as white and delicate as a piece of white tofu, his lips were red, his eyes were innocent and pure, with a thin mist of water, his thick and long eyelashes were half curled, and the beauty mark at the corner of his eye was too captivating. His handsome face still had a bit of childishness, and his clean and simple appearance was really rare!

"What an adorable little puppy!"

"Miss, what kind of dog did you say?"

Xin Moyan quickly came to her senses, turned her head and coughed a few times, "It's nothing, Cailian, take out the silver."

"Ooh!"

Cailian took out her purse from her bosom, took out a small piece of silver and handed it to the burly man selling meat buns, saying earnestly, "Is one tael of silver enough to buy your meat buns?"

The burly man took it, then said nothing, waved to the crowd, and signaled them to disperse.

"Thank you, sister!"

His voice was timid, and his pitiful eyes really made him look like a little puppy, which made Xin Moyan's eyes fill with pink bubbles. It was the first time she had seen such a cute little boy, and even her voice softened a lot.

"You're welcome. Don't you know you have to pay for what you buy?"

He shook his head and said aggrievedly, "I have never bought anything before, and I didn't know that money could be exchanged for food. This morning when I went out, I got separated from my servant. I was hungry until now, so I took his buns to eat, but he insisted that I pay for them."

"Oh? So you got separated from your attendants! It's almost evening now, don't you know the way?"

He shook his head again. "I'm new here and don't know the roads well. I've been wandering around the streets for a long time, but I still can't find my servant."

Although his expression was pitiful and helpless, he was dressed in fine clothes, with a gold hairpin in his hair, and exuded an aristocratic air. It was not hard to tell that he was a pampered young master.

"Here's what we'll do! I'll give you some money, and then I'll have someone take you to the government office to report the case. I think the people at the county office will be able to find your family."

His rosy lips pouted instantly, and he stared at Xin Moyan with a pitiful expression, his eyes gradually welling up with tears.

"Sister, I'm hungry. Can you take me to eat first? I'll give you the money after I find my family."

"Don't cry!" Xin Moyan was startled by his teary-eyed appearance; it was the first time she had ever seen a boy cry.

"Sister~"

Xin Moyan felt her heart flutter as she was called "sister" repeatedly, especially by such a cute and spoiled boy, and immediately made a decision.

“You’ve been hungry all day, and I need to eat now too. Come with me! After we eat, I’ll have someone take you to your family.”

"Mmm! Thank you, big sister~"

She scratched her head shyly; such an innocent look in her eyes was quite embarrassing!

As they walked, the master and servant asked him for details, "How old are you? Maybe you don't need to call me 'sister'!"

"Sister, I'm seventeen years old this year, how old are you?"

"I... am eighteen."

"Sister, you are so kind. You were willing to help me just now. Otherwise, I... I don't know what I would have done."

"Hehe~ It was nothing!"

"Sister, what's your name?"

"My name is Xin Moyan."

"Mmm, Sister Yan~"

Yunxianglou

"Boss, did you hear me clearly?"

Xuan Yuan remained expressionless and stern, though a thin layer of powder covered his ears, cheeks, and neck. Hua Buyu would never dare to say that her boss was blushing.
