In the novel "Joy of Life," the protagonist wakes up at Li Chengze's residence.

Prince's Mansion.

When Li Chengze returned to his residence after court, he was surprised to find that Tao Jingyang was still unconscious.

[Everyone in my country has finished their exams, but this person hasn't even gotten up yet?] Why is there such a big difference between people?

However, even though she was sleeping, Li Chengze still had to wake her up.

The fact that he had just discovered the extraordinary nature of the porcelain vase filled him with an indescribable excitement.

So, instead of letting Xie Bi'an go and call him, he knocked on the door himself before going up to the house, cleared his throat, and said:

"Miss Tao, when are you getting up?"

The person inside the room was fully awake the moment the sound was heard, but hearing the voice outside the door made her feel like she was still dreaming.

Who's calling me? If I'm not mistaken, is that Li Chengze?

Tao Jingyang did not answer Li Chengze's question immediately, but not wanting to keep people waiting outside for too long, he replied:

"Get up now, right away! Let me get dressed!"

For some reason, I felt a little guilty when I answered. It felt like when I was in school and couldn't get up on any of the mornings, my sleepy-eyed answer to my family member waking me up was just like that.

After answering, he lay back down and went back to sleep.

While still asleep, I said: "Ah, I'm up... getting dressed..."

This time, however, Tao Jingyang did not choose to lie back down. The Second Prince had come to summon him personally, and Tao Jingyang guessed that he must have something to say.

After getting dressed, Tao Jingyang looked at the angle of the sun in the sky, and thought, "Hmm... it's around eight o'clock."

On his way to the main hall, Tao Jingyang took a quick breath of the fresh morning air.

Upon arriving at the destination, Li Chengze sat down at the table next to him.

There were still several tall stacks of folded documents on the table, and the man was sitting in the middle of them. Good heavens, he's been approving them again.

Before even reaching the table, Li Chengze stood up and beckoned to the tailor outside to take Tao Jingyang's measurements.

"Oh, this is for making clothes for me." Tao Jingyang let the tailor take his measurements from the left and right.

To be honest, taking the measurements was quick; it was done in no time. After taking the measurements, the tailor bowed to the two men and took his leave.

Seeing that the main quest seemed to be completed, she asked the person sitting there, "So, I'll be leaving now that I'm done?"

Even she didn't understand why she had to come to him to take her measurements, it was just a simple matter.

Li Chengze did not answer her question, but changed the subject instead.

When asked if she hadn't had breakfast yet, he had already instructed the kitchen to prepare it, and it would be ready in a little while.

Tao Jingyang: O_o What does this mean? Something's definitely fishy here. Could this be the last breakfast...?

Seeing her slightly suspicious expression, Li Chengze chuckled twice.

Then, he took out the white porcelain bottle that Tao Jingyang had given him.

At this moment, besides the two of them, there were only Xie Bi'an and Fan Wujiu in the room, and no other outsiders.

"I've drunk the water from this porcelain bottle. What I really wanted to ask Miss Tao is... what exactly are the effects of this porcelain bottle?"

Tao Jingyang's gaze fell on the porcelain bottle, and he answered, "It cleanses the meridians and marrow, and enhances true qi."

Those two short words shocked the other three people in the room a thousand times over.

Li Chengze wanted to ask Tao Jingyang where he had obtained such a treasure, but only one question came to his lips:

"Such a treasure, Miss Tao, are you really going to give it to me?"

"As a prince, you will inevitably encounter all sorts of dangers."

I see you don't have a trace of true energy, which might be a problem if you encounter danger.

"I'm giving this to you in the hope that you can take good care of yourself in private, so that you'll have a better chance of survival when facing danger." Tao Jingyang spoke sincerely and earnestly.

The person opposite me never expected her to say that.

Li Chengze thought she would at least make some demands or conditions. But it turned out she simply wanted the best for him.

Li Chengze couldn't quite understand; it seemed like no one had ever treated him like this before.
