279. Chapter 279 Enmity 6
Hearing the noise, Qingqiao stood up and saluted. Helian Qiyu handed the cantaloupe to Qingqiao, "Go ahead and cut it for your lady to try!"
"Slave, I obey!" Qing Qiao happily agreed and walked to the kitchen holding the cantaloupe.
Hua Rongruo glanced at the cantaloupe. She really liked eating this kind of melon, so she was not polite.
This melon was a tribute from Xinjing Kingdom to Emperor Chen. Helian Qiyu looked pleased and asked for two. He looked at Hua Rongruo for a second time and explained softly: "This melon tastes sweet. It will be more in a while."
Eat two pieces!”
Hua Rongruo nodded and saw that he was refreshed and had obviously changed his clothes. Seeing him go around and sit down, "Your Majesty, what happened to you in such a hurry to come back this time?"
Helian Qiyu was just an idle prince now and had no official position. He rushed back this time, which made her a little uneasy. Even though she was not usually a meddlesome person, she couldn't help but ask at this moment.
Helian Qiyu raised the corners of his eyes slightly, smiled slightly, and said calmly: "It's nothing. The prince is in good health now. Envoys from various countries have arrived. Father asked me to come back as soon as possible to help the prince!"
Hua Rongruo nodded. After going to Yunwu Mountain, Helian Qiyu no longer called himself the king. Hua Rongruo didn't say anything more, and the relationship between the two seemed to be closer.
Qing Qiao brought the cantaloupe and then stepped back. Helian Qiyu pushed the cantaloupe towards Hua Rongruo and said, "Try it, it tastes pretty good."
Hua Rongruo stretched out her delicate green-white hands and pinched a crescent-shaped melon segment. She first put it to the tip of her nose and smelled it, then put it in her mouth. The taste was very sweet. She squinted her eyes comfortably and took the whole piece of melon.
The emotion of eating.
Helian Qiyu saw that she was eating with gusto like a kitten, so he reached out and picked up a piece and handed it to Hua Rongruo.
Not wanting the red mark on his wrist to be exposed accidentally, Hua Rongruo lowered her eyes, her eyes tilted and landed on his wrist, taking a quick look.
"What's wrong with the hand!" Hua Rongruo frowned. It would not be easy to get Helian Qiyu's hand.
But now there is clearly a wound about two centimeters long on the outside of the fair wrist. Although it is not deep, it can be seen that it was inflicted not long ago.
"I accidentally slipped, it's okay!" Helian Qiyu lifted up his sleeves, exposed his wrist, and stretched it forward in front of Hua Rongruo's eyes so that she could see clearly.
The slight frown between Hua Rongruo's brows did not relax. Her beautiful eyes lowered her eyes in deep thought. For a moment, her eyebrows drooped and she did not speak.
When Helian Qiyu saw her like this, he thought she was unhappy, so he had to say, "It's okay. You care about me. I'm really flattered!"
Hua Rongruo raised her eyes and looked at the smiling Helian Qiyu calmly. Her dark eyes exuded even more displeasure, which made the smile on the corners of Helian Qiyu's lips fade away.
The more he tried to escape like this, the more Hua Rongruo knew what must have happened.
She didn't think too much about how close the relationship between the two should be, but as friends, since she asked about something, she hoped he would tell him.
"I want to go back tomorrow!" Hua Rongruo looked away and changed the subject, her voice naturally a bit colder.
"Okay." Helian Qiyu shook his sleeves and lowered his head to tidy up the cuffs. Thinking of what happened during the day, he also knew that he didn't have much time to accompany Hua Rongruo now. He hesitated whether he should tell Hua what happened.
