He leaned very close, and his warm breath slapped on Yu Nianchu's neck, making his already reddish face even redder.
Unable to resist Xie Yu's pitiful begging, she turned around.
"You...want to go out dressed?"
The girl's voice was timid, which was completely different from what Xie Yu had seen before.
He curled his lips slightly and lowered his body, making it easier for Yu Nianchu to put on his cloak.
"What? You've given it to me, why don't you let me wear it?"
Yu Nianchu pursed his lips, "I didn't say that, I just thought you would keep a low profile..."
The more Xie Yu listened, the more interesting it became, "Tsk, isn't it just a birthday gift? It's not a token of love, so why should it be kept low-key?"
Yu Nianchu paused. Xie Yu's words pulled her out of the numb and tense atmosphere just now.
He was right, she thought, it was just a belated birthday gift.
As for last night's rescue and previous help, Xie Yu said that he would let her return the favor in the future.
Thinking of this, Yu Nianchu quickly shook his head and patted his little face, trying to wake himself up.
She still had a lot of things to do, but she couldn't let things go wrong at this juncture.
And although she and Xie Yu have many similarities, the differences are also obvious.
Regardless of status, both of them have their own paths to follow.
It is also a road full of conspiracy and calculation.
"Chu'er? Why are you so dazed?"
Xie Yu straightened the laces of his cloak a little, and Yu Nianchu tied a smart bow there, which was very beautiful.
He even wanted to spin around in a circle for Yu Nianchu to see, but his legs were also injured and he really couldn't make too exaggerated movements.
Yu Nianchu shook his head, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about what happened last night."
"If dad continues to be soft-hearted, then the hurt and humiliation I have suffered will really be in vain."
Xie Yu responded, because he was the same.
For their own purposes, they all bet on their father's sympathy and compassion.
"Yes, it seems that I have to go back and continue to lie down, lest father think that I am not seriously injured."
"Oh, by the way, Chu'er, rumors about you are already spreading wildly outside."
"I think it's also the work of your good stepmother and eldest sister. You have to be careful."
Yu Nianchu said firmly, "Okay, I understand. Your Highness, please be careful."
The two said goodbye briefly. Unexpectedly, as soon as Xie Yu opened the door of the camp, he caught a glimpse of Fu Zhao who was still waiting outside.
He hadn't left since just now, hiding in a corner looking for a chance to see Yu Nianchu. It wasn't until he saw Xie Yu entering easily that he came out again.
He bowed respectfully to Xie Yu, "Is His Royal Highness the Prince free?"
Xie Yu yawned lazily, and showed his cloak to Fu Zhao intentionally or unintentionally.
"Isn't this Mr. Fu? You have no contact with Gu Su? What's the point of looking for Gu Su now?"
"Rather than Gu Su, you should go see Xu'er."
Fu Zhao felt angry, especially when he saw the cloak on Fu Zhao.
Ayun once told him that Yu Nianchu wanted to make a cloak as a gift...
Moreover, Fu Zhao was not wearing a cloak when he entered just now. Isn't it obvious that this cloak was given by Chu'er?
He paused and asked firmly again, "Your Highness, are you free? I have something important to discuss with you."
Xie Yu chuckled, just like the playboy he used to be in front of everyone.
"Hey, the wound on Gu's body is starting to hurt again. Then Master Fu should go back to the camp to talk with Gu."
"But don't stay too long. I'm very sleepy and need to catch up on my sleep."
Fu Zhao nodded, "Yes."
…
Returning to Xie Yu's camp, Fu Zhao immediately held up his hands and said, "Your Highness, please step aside."
Xie Yu picked up a cup of tea. Before he could drink it, he was shocked by Fu Zhao's words.
"Huh? Master Fu, you are so domineering! This is Gu's camp, and these maids and eunuchs are Gu's loving servants and maids!"
As he spoke, he blew on the hot tea again and drank more than half of the cup in one breath.
Fu Zhao stood with his hands behind his hands and did not open his mouth again, "About Chu'er, Weichen hopes that not too many people will know about it for the time being."
"That happened yesterday. I believe His Highness doesn't want Chu'er to be wronged again, right?"
Xie Yu had already guessed the reason for his visit. Fu Zhao had a wooden fish head and everything he wanted was written on his face.
It's just that he is too young after all and can't hold his breath.
Xie Yu put down the tea cup and waved to everyone, "Everyone, go down first."
He looked at Fu Zhao again, his charming and lazy eyes became sharp, "Tell me, Mr. Fu, what do you want?"
The anger in Fu Zhao's heart had been suppressed for a long time. Even now, he still remembered his identity and knelt down to apologize to Fu Zhao.
"I'm sorry for the offence, but I would like to ask His Highness the Crown Prince, what is going on between you and Chu'er?"
"I mean emotionally."
Xie Yu stretched out his index finger and poked his temple with some confusion, looking very disdainful.
"Master Fu, Gu's emotional problems are not something you should worry about."
"Yes! I know!" Fu Zhao eagerly answered Xie Yu's words with a very excited tone.
"But you are provoking Chu'er, I can't ignore it!"
"To be honest with you, Your Highness, I and Chu'er are childhood sweethearts. Marquis Dingyuan has already said that Chu'er will be betrothed to me!"
"So I cannot allow others to deceive her feelings!"
Xie Yu felt vaguely funny. He sat up again, walked to Fu Zhao's side step by step, and looked at him condescendingly.
"Master Fu, you really know how to joke."
"Cheating? Is Gu Gu that kind of person?"
"Besides, you have an engagement with Chu'er. That's your business. Gu Ke didn't instigate Chu'er to do anything."
"Why do you seem to have become a bad guy in Master Fu's eyes?"
Fu Zhao clenched his fists and looked at Fu Zhao with scarlet eyes, his words full of unwillingness.
"But... Chu'er seems to like His Highness."
"So, I would like to ask His Highness what he thinks."
"If His Highness and Chu'er are in love with each other, I am willing to withdraw."
"But if not... I will never give up! And I will never give up with His Highness!!"
Xie Yu admired Yu Nianchu for being able to make a piece of wood say such words.
However, I heard Yunque say before that Chu'er didn't seem to like this Fu Zhao, and had clearly rejected him many times.
But Fu Zhao actually came to argue with him because of Yu Nianchu, which shows that he is really infatuated.
As for Xie Yu himself...
He sighed and used his hand that was not wrapped in gauze to help Fu Zhao.
"Master Fu, please sit down."
"Since you asked that, I will naturally give you an explanation."
"Otherwise, you will appear to be alone and unlovable."
He poured Fu Zhao a cup of tea and pushed it in front of him little by little.
"To be honest with Master Fu, Gu really likes Chu'er."
"But I just like it."
