Chapter 99 He doesn't understand? He can't be!
She yawned and prepared to walk towards Su Fengjun's room, but he stopped her, seemingly wanting to say something.
His expression seemed to have returned to normal, cold and indifferent, as if he wasn't the one she was shopping with today.
"The princess should wait for her younger brother to return."
Zhongli Yueluo was a little angry. What kind of man is this who claims to have great love in his heart?
She needed to rest, so he told her to wait for her younger brother!
"Lord Su Feng, this princess is tired and wants to rest! As my consort, don't you understand?"
He understood, but he was the older brother, and now that he was bringing her into the house, of course he wanted to...
But he knew perfectly well that his brother liked her, so he couldn't.
Zhongli Yueluo stood at the door, while he stood outside, separated only by the door. The chill emanating from her made him shiver.
Seeing that she seemed really angry, he didn't really understand, even though he felt that the princess also liked his brother.
He stepped halfway through the door, his heart heavy with unease. He raised his hand to comfort her, but didn't know how.
Her voice carried a hint of anxiety: "Princess...it's not that I don't understand."
"You understand? Why do you only dare to step in with one foot in?" She didn't take a step forward, but waited for him.
Su Fengjun stood at the door, torn between going in and going out. Finally, she gritted her teeth, stepped inside, and closed the door behind her.
But he just sat there blankly at the table, while she let her hair down and removed the beaded flowers, placing them aside.
She didn't know which window the wind was leaking in from, but it was blowing her hair wildly.
She sat opposite her, puffing out her cheeks, her head propped up with her hand.
He stole a glance at her, unconsciously straightened his back, and felt unsure what to do with his hands.
The atmosphere in the room was somewhat awkward. After a moment of silence, he said in a low voice, "Princess, you should rest. I'll stay here."
"My lord, how can you leave me alone to sleep in this cold bed!"
She gently tossed her hair, and at that moment she even regretted not having learned a move or two from Zhong Liyu.
Upon hearing this, Su Fengjun paused, almost standing up, his ears turning so red they seemed about to bleed.
His tone was somewhat flustered: "I used fire magic to warm the princess."
She sighed softly, "Alas... Su Fengjun, your heart is colder than the water of the Heartless River."
She waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "Boring...it's so boring!"
Seeing her gloomy face, Su Fengjun thought to himself that this was for the best, to put an end to her hopes.
He was afraid he would lose control if she continued like this.
I thought Zhongli Yueluo would obediently go to bed and lie down.
Who knew that in the instant he was distracted, Zhongli Yueluo appeared in front of him, bending down and bringing her face close to his.
They were so close they could feel each other's breath. He tilted his head back slightly as she drew closer.
He gently placed three fingers on her lips, lowered his head, and said nothing.
Zhongli Yueluo bit his hand, and he let go, his eyes darting away.
But she drew closer, and he could only shout again, "Princess!"
Suddenly, the door opened a crack, revealing a pair of bright, green eyes.
Zhongli Yueluo and Su Fengjun both glanced at the door.
He Yuhuan dazedly pushed the door open stealthily, feeling a strong sense of surreptitiousness.
She bit her nails, not understanding why Yin Yi had brought her here when nothing had happened.
"Master, why haven't you come back?" She blinked twice.
Su Fengjun had never felt so grateful to anyone before.
He turned around, quickly stood up, took a step back, and pretended that nothing had happened.
Zhongli Yuelu laughed awkwardly, thinking to herself, "My hair is all messed up and you're doing this to me?"
He Yuhuan didn't go inside; she just stood there.
Zhongli Yueluo grabbed her pearl hairpin and walked out.
As she brushed past Su Fengjun, she said, "If you dare to refuse me again, I'll never come back."
He reached out and grasped at the air, his eyes filled with reluctance, but she had already walked away without looking back.
Holding He Yuhuan's hand, Zhongli Yueluo walked at a moderate pace, knowing he wouldn't chase after her.
She looked down and asked He Yuhuan with a smile, "How did you know I was here?"
He Yuhuan, being incapable of lying, naturally betrayed Yin Yi: "Oh, Yin Yi asked me to come."
He is indeed honest. I wish Su Fengjun were half as honest as He Yuhuan.
But then he wouldn't be himself anymore; we have to slowly "reform" him!
Su Fengjun watched her departing figure, his eyes filled with loneliness.
Unable to hold back, she spoke, her voice so soft that only she could hear it: "I don't want to refuse the princess."
He clenched his fists slightly and turned around to see a silver-haired boy standing at the end of the corridor.
Su Fengling crossed her arms and sighed softly.
“Brother, you don’t need to do this. I can tell that the princess likes you more.”
Su Fengling approached him, even speaking with a hint of earnestness.
"It's good that you're back safe and sound. Is everything over?" He deliberately changed the subject.
"Yes, but they deployed the Twelve Demons, so that news must be true."
Seeing that he changed the subject, Su Fengling didn't press the matter further and got down to business.
"We still can't let our guard down. If something happens at West Demon Mountain, even if we can't be the princess's support, we can't hold her back."
"Yes, I heard that you walked the flower bridge with the princess today, it must have been quite a lively occasion." As she spoke, there was even a hint of longing in her eyes.
"Tomorrow on the pleasure boat, you can spend a good time with the princess. But after tomorrow, who knows if you'll still have such peaceful days?"
"Okay, brother, you should go to bed early. There's no problem in Taiyin City, it's just that things are a bit chaotic at the border."
He smiled slightly, revealing his exhaustion.
Without saying much, he went into his room and fell asleep immediately.
After all, I've been hiding at the border of Ghost Sorrow Abyss for the past two days, and I'm really tired.
When Zhongli Yueluo returned to her room, He Yuhuan piled up a lot of trinkets from the street on the table.
Arrange them in rows and rows, and ask with a smile, "Master, which one do you like? I'll give it to you."
He crossed his arms over his chest, raised his head, lifted his chin, and even learned to smile crookedly, probably learned from Ginichi.
Zhongli Yueluo rested her chin on her hands: "I like them all, would you like to give them all to me?"
Without a second's hesitation, He Yuhuan said, "Then take them all. I'll buy you more if it's not enough!"
He had an air of wealth and arrogance, as if he was waiting for her praise. She ruffled his hair.
"Alright, then we'll have to rely on our Miss He."
She put her hands on her hips, let out two hearty laughs, then choked on her own saliva and coughed.
Zhongli Yueluo's psychological shadow from her quarrel with Su Fengjun has been completely dispelled by He Yuhuan.
She patted her back and laughed twice, the sound carrying outside. Peach Blossom thought to herself, "..."
She then held He Yuhuan as they fell asleep, but He Yuhuan wasn't used to it and preferred to lie casually on the bed.
He doesn't cover himself with a blanket or use a pillow, and he kicks Zhong Liyueluo's foot every now and then.
Zhongli Yueluo couldn't sleep well, feeling vaguely uneasy.
The Silver Deer Guard Captain appeared inside the room, perfectly lucid: "Captain, you've arrived."
He reported what had happened in the shadows, and then withdrew.
Her father was ultimately... well, according to Gongshu Liang and the others' plan, she was destined to leave Ximo Mountain anyway.
