When Zhao Mengcun and Mr. Li saw the prince coming, they both quickly saluted.
"What do you mean by what you just said? Why can't my sister, a woman, raise wild beasts? After you lost to me, Ah Yue, in the pot throw, do you still care about what she raises?"
Yu Hengyue was still unhappy with the questioning voice he heard just now.
"Young General Yu misunderstood. Zhao didn't mean that. I was just a little surprised when I heard about it for the first time. And I am convinced that I lost to Miss Yu."
Zhao Mengcun was indeed convinced. He felt that the only reason he couldn't let go of his shame was that he lost too ugly in front of everyone.
He was also too surprised when his friend said that Yu Shuyue raised wild beasts.
And I also blame my friend for not telling me in advance.
How could this woman who could raise a beast as big as a lion be the same as those delicate rich ladies raised in boudoirs?
Zhao Mengcun was already convinced because he lost in the pot throw, but now that he knew that Yu Shuyue actually raised ferocious beasts, he instantly felt admiration for her from the bottom of his heart.
She is indeed the daughter of a general!
Qi Xiuyao looked at Zhao Mengcun's eyes sparkling when he mentioned Yu Shuyue, and frowned subconsciously.
"Okay, just obey."
The more Yu Heng realized that he didn't really have any objections to Yu Shuyue, he stopped wasting time with him.
He asked his sister if she wanted to play hut, and after receiving a negative answer, he led her to continue wandering around Yanqiu Mountain.
Yu Shuyue didn't know why her brother came to look for her with the prince.
Now that she saw the prince, she couldn't help but tighten her nerves and be wary of him at all times.
There is nothing she can do about it, the sequelae of the dream to her.
The face was exactly the same as hers in the dream, and the desperate and numb expression when she repeatedly jumped off the tower constantly stimulated Yu Shuyue's brain nerves.
She also experienced the pain of death repeatedly in her sleep. Now seeing the prince's face up close, how could she not tense up and be vigilant all the time.
"Ayue, Ayue?"
Yu Hengyue called his sister several times but received no reply, so he stopped and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Ayue, what's wrong with you?"
He stared at his sister worriedly.
"Huh? Brother, I'm fine. What did you just say?"
Realizing that the prince and brother's eyes were on her, Yu Shuyue threw away those complicated thoughts and asked with a smile on her face.
"Are you really okay?"
When she shook her head in affirmation, although Yu Hengyue temporarily believed it, he still had doubts in his heart.
"It's getting dark. Yan Qiushan will have acrobats from other lands performing later. I'll take you to have some dinner first and watch the show with you in the evening."
"Okay, I will listen to my brother, but does the prince also want to come with us?"
Yu Shuyue had no objections to her brother's arrangement.
Just seeing that the prince has no intention of leaving at all, will he stay with them next time?
"Ayue, don't you like me to be with you?"
Her attention finally came to him, but it was like this, and Qi Xiuyao couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his heart.
He unconsciously took on a pitiful tone when he spoke.
This made Yu Hengyue, a masculine man, shake his body in disgust.
"I don't dare, I'm just afraid of neglecting His Highness the Crown Prince."
Qi Xiuyao's chest tightened suddenly at her cold and respectful tone, and the hand on his thigh even wrinkled the brocade robe.
He couldn't figure out why.
Being treated so coldly by her, his heart ached for a while, and the aura around him became more and more melancholy.
But before they noticed something wrong with his breath, he quickly suppressed it and his face returned to a calm look.
"It doesn't matter."
Qi Xiuyao had already said this, and Yu Shuyue couldn't say anything else, and she was also subconsciously tense by Qi Xiuyao's hurt eyes at the end.
But she soon put this feeling aside and went to dinner with them.
After dinner, it was almost dark, and the entire Yanqiu Mountain was hung with lanterns wherever there were people, making everything lively.
Yu Shuyue took her two maids, her brother and His Highness the Crown Prince to watch the performance of the acrobatic troupe of Qi from the Outer Territory.
During the Shangsi Festival, Yan Qiushan was already very lively, not to mention the acrobatic troupes from outside the country that ordinary people could hardly see.
Having this opportunity today, they all gathered around the venue where the acrobatic troupe performed.
Yu Shuyue was a little troubled by the huge crowd of people, and could not clearly see the movements of the acrobatic troupe inside.
Fortunately, Qi Xiuyao in a wheelchair was so eye-catching that others could notice him at a glance and consciously made way for them.
There is no way, after all, this is the prince.
They ordinary people cannot disrespect him just because he is not favored.
After successfully entering the front row and watching the acrobatic troupe's performance up close, Yu Shuyue's face was filled with smiles.
The spring is cold, and the warmth turns cold again, but the people in Daqi are still wearing thick brocade clothes.
But the members of the acrobatic troupe who came from other lands were wearing thin clothes, and the women were showing their shoulders and belly, dancing in enchanting ways.
Yu Shuyue looked at their exposed skin and felt a chill coming over them.
She felt cold just looking at them, but they were still dancing dutifully with smiles on their faces.
I can't help but admire him very much.
The exotic dance is very unrestrained and fiery, which is obviously different from Da Qi's reserved style.
Yu Shuyue watched carefully, focusing entirely on the performance above, and for a moment she forgot that the prince was also beside her.
Therefore, she did not notice that when her eyes were completely distracted by the performance on the field, the man next to her in the wheelchair turned slightly sideways and looked up at her.
Yu Hengyue accidentally caught a glimpse of the prince's eyes glued to his sister, and he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Originally, he was worried that his sister would fall into trouble, so he tried to stop her in every possible way. Although he was unsuccessful, he was still wary of fearing that his sister would get hurt.
Now...
For some reason, my sister seemed to have withdrawn, keeping aloof from the prince.
On the other hand, looking at the prince's infatuated look, he seemed to have deep feelings for his sister.
He didn't know for a moment whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
However, no matter what happens, he will respect Ah Yue's thoughts and will not let anyone force her.
Yu Hengyue made up his mind, and then looked away. As the performance became more intense, the people around him became more and more excited.
He was here, carefully guarding Yu Shuyue's side, fearing that others would accidentally bump into her.
Suddenly, a flash of red broke into his sight.
He looked up and met Gu Jingyan's smiling eyes.
But before the smile could creep onto his face, his expression changed drastically in the next second. This chapter has been completed!
