Chapter 112 Is this how she usually coaxes him?

Thinking of this, a hint of malice flashed in Chu Junyan's eyes:
"I heard your elder sister injured her arm. This medicine is so effective, why don't you give it to her?"

The moment the man spoke, the surrounding air seemed to fall silent.

The girl paused in applying the medicine.

After a while, just when he thought she wouldn't react.

The little girl slowly raised her head, her beautiful, glassy eyes filled with a hint of grievance and hurt, even though she made no argument or rebuttal.

Just looking at him made the man, who had thought he had won the round, feel a sudden, inexplicable pain in his heart.

It was as if someone was about to wake up from within the body.

"Sorry, I said the wrong thing."

His Highness the Crown Prince acted swiftly and immediately apologized.

Before the girl he had "harmed" could react, it was Eunuch Li, who was serving nearby, who suddenly raised his head, staring at the person opposite him with a look of shock and disbelief:

Is there something wrong with his ears? How could he hear His Highness the Crown Prince apologizing to someone?

Or was it actually the Seventh Prince who "woke up"?

Qin Su was also stunned for a moment. Looking at the man's handsome face, she bit her lip and said, "Okay, I forgive you."

After saying that, she lowered her head and continued applying the medicine to him.

Chu Junyan's phoenix eyes darkened slightly, and he coldly questioned in his heart, "What's wrong? Are you feeling sorry for her?"

But my body didn't react; it was as if what had just happened was just a sudden illusion.

Everything seemed to quiet down.

Just when His Highness the Crown Prince thought the matter was over, the little girl's muttering voice reached his ears:

“My elder sister wouldn’t want my things. She’s only interested in marrying the Crown Prince. As for those wounds, it’s better to wait until she becomes the Crown Princess and let the Crown Prince treat them.”

"puff--"

The two of them paused, and simultaneously looked to the side—

Eunuch Li knelt down swiftly, his face taut: "This servant is guilty, Your Highness, please forgive me."

A flash of anger crossed the Crown Prince's eyes. He was about to speak when he was interrupted.

"Eunuch Li, get up quickly, you have done nothing wrong."

Although Eunuch Li was deeply moved, he dared not rise: "This servant is guilty; I dare not speak ill of the Crown Prince..."

This was already a warning to Qin Su: My dear girl, you mustn't say anything carelessly again!
But the person he wanted to remind didn't understand his meaning at all, and naively said, "How could that be? It's about criticizing the Crown Prince..."

She looked at the handsome young man in front of her: "Some people are much worse than you say. Besides, it's just idle chatter, and His Highness the Crown Prince can't hear it."

His Highness the Crown Prince gave a forced smile: Thank you, I not only heard it, but I heard it very clearly.

Qin Su looked at him: "My elder sister is very beautiful and has a good reputation. His Highness the Crown Prince is very lucky to have married her..."

Finally, His Highness the Crown Prince could no longer tolerate it. He stretched out his slender fingers and pinched the little girl's chin hard, forcing her to raise her head. His tone was gentle, but his eyes were icy: "So, this is how you usually annoy me?"

She blinked innocently, "How could that be? We're good friends, how could I possibly make you angry?"

"Ah."

Chu Junyan laughed in exasperation: "You better be!"

After saying this coldly, he released his grip on the girl's hand.

Just then, the little girl suddenly reached out and put something in his mouth.

His eyes narrowed, about to erupt in anger, when a cool, stimulating sensation exploded in his mouth, shooting straight to the top of his head. "I saw some mint leaves in the kitchen, so I asked the chef to make some mint candies. Would you like to try some?"

The girl's sweet and pleasant voice seemed to come from afar, slowly bringing the man back to his senses.

"Peppermint has the effect of clearing the head and eyes, and soothing the liver and regulating qi. When you are tired, eating one peppermint is much more effective than drinking tea."

Chu Junyan was stung by the tender concern in the girl's eyes: "You already have trouble sleeping, so you should drink less tea."

He looked down at her, the mint melting in his mouth, its icy coolness stimulating his taste buds, just as she had said, it was indeed extremely refreshing and invigorating.

After a long while, His Highness the Crown Prince finally found his voice, which was a little hoarse but still sexy and pleasant: "What do you want?"

"Ok?"

The little girl was clearly taken aback, staring at him blankly: "What?"

"I'm asking you, what are you planning to exchange this for?"

His Highness the Crown Prince rarely spoke to her so patiently for so long.

The little girl blinked and understood: "I don't want anything. I just hope you can take good care of your health."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but look down at his arm: "Don't hurt yourself anymore. It will break the hearts of those who care about you if they see it."

Hearing this, Eunuch Li nodded frantically: "Yes, yes, Miss Qin said exactly what we were thinking!"
However, this excited action instantly fell silent after being swept away by the man's cold gaze.

"That's all?"

Chu Junyan spoke, but his dark eyes held a deep disbelief.

The little girl nodded, then shook her head.

A hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes: Sure enough, he said there was no way there could be someone in this world who didn't want anything and was only good to him.

"Once I get married, we won't be able to see each other often. If you like, I've already given the recipe to the imperial chef. Just have him make it for you whenever you want."

Chu Junyan's smile froze for a moment, and just as he was about to say something, his heart suddenly started pounding.

He didn't care about being exposed and quickly interrupted her: "Alright, I know everything you need to say. I have things to take care of, you can go out now."

The little girl paused for a moment, looking at him with a hint of sadness in her eyes, but in the end she said nothing, obediently nodded, and left.

Seeing her so frail and pitiful appearance, Chu Junyan's physical reaction became even stronger.

A cold glance was delivered, and Eunuch Li was startled. He hurriedly went to help Qin Su leave quickly.

"Miss Qin, this servant will see you off."
-
Once everyone left, the heavy, carved palace doors slammed shut from the outside, blocking out all the bright sunlight.

Chu Junyan finally dropped his gentle and polite demeanor, his handsome face turning icy cold: "You're awake? Come out!"

However, the body returned to calm.

He wouldn't let it go, sneering, "What, you can't bear to let her go? We'll see if you have the guts, you coward."

It felt as if some intense emotion was fighting for control of the body.

But in the end, he still managed to suppress it.

Feeling the peace returning to his body, Chu Junyan's smile was exquisitely beautiful and alluring.

He deliberately ignored the strange feeling he had just experienced because of the girl's words. He became more and more curious about what would happen if that guy went crazy when he came out next time and found that his sweetheart had already married someone else.

If Qin Su knew his thoughts, she would only tell him:

Isn't this your body?

He really embarrassed himself, and you think you can get away with it?
Is this something to be proud of?
