Cheng Jingyu didn't expect Fu Yanci to come, and was stunned when she saw him.
Reminiscent of Su Yi's description of his drunken state to her, her face heated up, and she looked at Fu Yanci with a more evasive look.
Besides, there is still something to do in the afternoon.
Even though she was disguised and there was a screen between her, people should not be able to tell it was her.
But Fu Yanci is not an ordinary person. According to his calculations, it is suspicious to suddenly appear in the teahouse.
He shouldn't have noticed anything, right?
Thinking of this, Cheng Jingyu felt that it was very dangerous for her to stand in front of Fu Yanci.
So she said hello hastily, her voice was natural but her expression was evasive.
In Fu Yanci's eyes, this was like how Cheng Jingyu remembered everything about that night, never thought of meeting him, but was afraid of being discovered by Nie Wenxun.
He snorted in his heart, unable to control his temper for the first time, and said bluntly: "The princess doesn't seem to welcome you."
"No!" Cheng Jingyu hurriedly denied.
But after saying that, she felt that she had overreacted, so she waved the waiter over to add a seat.
"It's not that you're not welcome, it's that I didn't expect His Highness Fu to come." Cheng Jingyu looked at Fu Yanci and said a little seriously.
This made Nie Wenxun stare at her a few more times, with a smile of unknown meaning hanging on the corner of his mouth.
Fu Yanci said nothing more and sat down at the seat furthest away from Cheng Jingyu.
There were four people at the table, and the atmosphere was subtle.
Xiao Yi was the only one who didn't feel anything. When the food came, he stretched out his chopsticks and picked up the food for Fu Yanci.
"This squirrel mandarin fish is a specialty of Gusu and the signature of Tianfulou. Try it."
"Ginseng chicken soup is good for your health. It's suitable for you."
"The salt-baked quail is also a specialty of Tianfulou. Eat it while it's hot."
Xiao Yi is a person who does not have so many twists and turns by nature.
To him, Fu Yanci was a poor man of the same age.
He had never had a good day since he came to Xichu. His father and Xiao Heng made things difficult for him every day, and he was in poor health.
Moreover, Xiao Yi is one year older than Fu Yanci, so he feels that he should take more care of him.
So he was like a busy squirrel, piling all the pine cones he saw into Fu Yanci's bowl.
Until the food in Fu Yanci's bowl overflowed, Cheng Jingyu finally couldn't help but slap it with her chopsticks.
'Snapped! '
Three pairs of eyes looked over.
A stiff smile appeared on Cheng Jingyu's face: "Your Highness, Fifth Highness, let Your Highness Fu eat it by himself?"
She hadn't paid much attention to Xiao Yi before, so why did she realize that he was so clingy to Fu Yanci?
"Yes," Nie Wenxun also put down his chopsticks: "Your Highness, the Fifth Highness, may be partial. Why don't you see His Highness taking care of me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a quail leg appeared in his bowl.
Fat and fragrant.
It was Cheng Jingyu who gave it to Nie Wenxun. She gave it to Nie Wenxun and said, "Your Highness, eat more."
There was clearly a flattering smile on her face, which made this already stunning face look really good-looking in such an ordinary scene.
"Your Highness, do you like the food at Tianfulou?" Cheng Jingyu asked diligently, "If you don't like it, go to Zuixianlou tomorrow."
"Dui Zui Zui Zui Xian Lou? Jingyu, is your monthly money really enough? Didn't you say that Marquis Cheng has always been strict about the expenses of the mansion?"
Xiao Yi was very jealous.
He and Cheng Jingyu could be said to have grown up together, so why hadn't Cheng Jingyu been so generous before?
The more he thought about it, the more dissatisfied he became: "After all, we are childhood sweethearts, and Fu Yanci has been here in Xichu for a year, and I haven't seen you as a guest. When Prince Wenxun comes, the treatment is much better than us!"
Just say that this fool should not have been brought here.
Cheng Jingyu had a toothache and didn't dare to look at Fu Yanci.
Although she also felt that she was a bit of a loser towards Nie Wenxun, she did it all.
She is interested in the money in people's pockets, so she should be more enthusiastic.
But when it came out of Xiao Yi's mouth, these words were particularly harsh.
Cheng Jingyu secretly glared at Xiao Yi and told him to eat well and talk less.
"The dishes served by the princess are indeed delicious. The dishes at Tianfulou also depend on who is eating them together. If it is the princess, then of course Wen Xun will find it extremely delicious."
Nie Wenxun interrupted and ate the white jade tofu, looking completely satisfied.
His expression was serious, and it was hard to tell whether he was pretending or serious.
Cheng Jingyu clenched her hands silently under the table. She didn't know for a moment that Nie Wenxun deliberately called Fu Yanci and Xiao Yi so that she would not have a chance to speak alone.
Or is it just a whim, thinking that there are many people is fun.
But no matter which one it was, Cheng Jingyu felt that this person might not be a bit sinister and cunning.
Based on Cheng Jingyu's previous understanding of him, he was not as kind and easy to get along with as he appeared on the surface.
Not necessarily someone who takes him seriously.
Just as he was talking, he saw Fu Yanci put down his chopsticks.
Nie Wenxun was curious: "You eat so little, why don't you use a little more?"
Fu Yanci leaned back in his chair: "I'm full."
There was obviously a gloominess in his eyes, the kind that people would not dare to mess with if they saw him.
He didn't look like the same person at all in the teahouse in the afternoon.
Cheng Jingyu was a little cautious when she spoke again: "Your Highness Fu, is the food not to your taste?"
The contents of his bowl were basically untouched, and he only took two sips of the soup.
Never mind Nie Wenxun, the person Cheng Jingyu paid more attention to was Fu Yanci. Seeing that he had a bad appetite, she wanted to ask the waiter to serve more dishes.
"No need." Fu Yanci still said coldly.
"Then let's go to the temple fair." Nie Wenxun also put down his chopsticks: "They say the temple fair in Xichu is lively. If you go late, you won't get a good seat."
What else could she do? Cheng Jingyu could only think about how she had made Fu Yanci unhappy.
Or is it because his excessive behavior on the day of the palace banquet made him angry until now?
If that's the case, she has to find a way to apologize.
Just as she was thinking about it, Nie Wenxun suddenly stopped her: "Jingyu."
"What...?" Cheng Jingyu felt a chill running down her spine. Why did Nie Wenxun suddenly call her name?
Are you not familiar with this?
But then, Nie Wenxun looked apologetic again: "I don't know if you would mind, but we have already had two meals. If I call you Your Highness the Princess again, it will inevitably be awkward, and it is inconvenient to go out, so why not How about calling everyone by their first names?
not so good.
"OK."
Fu Yanci and Xiao Yi got into the car first, two steps ahead.
They were two steps behind, but the sound could be heard clearly in front.
Nie Wenxun smiled and said: "Then Jingyu calls me and listens."
"..." Cheng Jingyu was sure that Nie Wenxun was trying to play a trick on her, but he was laughing so hard, what could she say: "Brother Wenxun."
Fu Yanci, who got on the bus in front, paused.
Then I heard Cheng Jingyu say: "Brother Wenxun, four people per car is too crowded, why don't you take my car?"
"Jingyu wants to ride in the same car with me, of course Wenxun will not refuse." The smile on Nie Wenxun's lips became more wanton.
He saw that someone was about to explode with anger.
