I'm a princess, so what if I have three husbands?

Chapter 95 Saying no means meaning yes

She slowly raised her eyes, seemingly trying to seduce him.

His heart was racing, and for a moment his brain stopped thinking.

She obediently led me out the door, and once outside, I carefully protected her and observed our surroundings.

It was as if she were a precious jewel, and they were afraid someone would steal her away.

Zhongli Yueluo rested her head on his shoulder. She had simply styled her hair in a bun, which made her look lively and playful. When she looked up, her hair danced.

He would occasionally reach out to tidy her hair, but her hair was like a disobedient child.

Every now and then, the wind would blow it up and stick it to her lips, and he would patiently push it back over and over again.

She grinned foolishly, her gaze falling on the pastry shop in the distance.

Su Fengjun followed her gaze, saying nothing on the surface, but he already knew what Zhongli Yueluo was thinking.

Without saying a word, Zhongli Yueluo had no idea what he was going to do.

After Su Fengjun went to the pastry shop across the street and bought a few pastries that didn't look too sweet, he brought them to her.

He reached out and handed it to her.

Zhongli Yueluo hadn't eaten much that morning, and when she saw the pastries he handed her, they weren't even the kind that were too sweet.

Touched, I smiled faintly and said, "Thank you."

He shook his head, crossed his arms over his chest, and continued walking on the other side of the crowd, making sure that passersby couldn't squeeze past him.

I opened the oil paper bag, took out a piece of pastry, took a bite, and it tasted good.

She turned and held it to his lips: "Try it."

"How can I share food with the princess in public?" He coldly turned his head to the other side.

“Now that we’re dressed plainly, you see, nobody’s even looking at us.”

"Who would know that you are my prince consort and I am a princess?" He didn't move the pastry that was placed near his mouth.

Upon hearing Zhongli Yueluo's words, he first looked at her, then at the pastries in her hand.

She bit into this; can he eat it?

She took a small bite, her neck and face turning red. She asked, "Is it good?"

He nodded: "It's very sweet!"

Then she took out another piece and handed it to him, but he saw that she didn't touch it.

He immediately realized he definitely didn't like it, and then his eyes dimmed.

He looked around, wanting to buy some other things, when his eyes caught her eating again.

He wondered, "If the princess doesn't like it, we can just buy something else."

Zhongli Yueluo stuffed a piece of pastry into her cheeks until they were bulging.

With round, bright eyes, she seemed not to have heard him clearly, and mumbled, "Hmm?"

Seeing her adorable appearance, he unconsciously touched the tip of his nose.

Noticing the crumbs of pastry stuck to her lips, I gently wiped them away with my thumb.

After a two-second eye contact, he looked away shyly and explained, "Princess, I got some crumbs on my skin."

She pressed her face close and mumbled, covering her mouth, "Anything else?"

Looking into her clear, untainted eyes, he felt a ticklish sensation in his heart, as if a feather had gently brushed against it.

Yet she had to maintain a calm facade, her eyes flickering slightly as she softly replied, "No."

Seeing his serious expression, Zhongli Yueluo turned around, choked on her pastry, and couldn't help but cough twice.

Upon hearing the sound, he quickly stepped forward and gently patted her back.

His eyes were full of concern, and his voice softened: "Princess, I'll go buy some tea."

Zhongli Yueluo grabbed him and waved her hand repeatedly, gently patting her chest and shaking her head.

They continued walking forward, and Zhongli Yueluo's gaze lingered on any object for more than a few seconds.

Next, that thing will appear in her hands.

In a short while, she had a rattle drum, candied hawthorns, and even a few paper shadow puppets in her hands.

"Feng Jun, I was just looking, I don't want them." There were too many things in his hands, so he had to put them into his bag.

Su Fengjun remained indifferent and did not reply to her. Occasionally, one could hear the ghost guards in the courtyard gossiping.

They say that when a girl says no, she actually wants it, and there must be some truth to that.

They then returned to the city, where there was no further activity.

Zhongli Yueluo went from being very wary at the beginning to relaxing later.

But she didn't dare to look around, afraid that if she said anything, Su Fengjun would go and buy it for her.

At noon, Zhongli Yuelu observed Su Fengjun's expression, which remained almost unchanged.

Meanwhile, those secretly observing them were also wondering how Su Fengjun could be completely unharmed.

"Feng Jun, are you hungry? Would you like to go to a restaurant for something to eat?"

"Okay." He wasn't very hungry, but he was worried she might be.

Upon entering the restaurant, they sat in a very secluded corner to avoid attracting attention.

That waiter was such a shrewd man; he could tell from their elegant demeanor that they were no ordinary people, even though they were dressed in coarse linen.

The menu was designed to be as expensive as possible. Zhongli Yueluo knew this, but she didn't expose the waiter's intentions. She just wanted to have a quiet meal.

I ordered a few dishes and sat in a corner by the window, where I could see the crowds coming and going outside.

But she just stared out the window for a while, and when she turned around, the bowl was already piled high with food.

"Princess, please eat more." He continued to serve her food with his chopsticks.

Zhongli Yueluo grasped his wrist, and he paused, a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.

Was I being too proactive? Did she not like it?

"Ahem, Princess, please eat." She withdrew her hand, picked at her rice, and didn't touch the vegetables.

Zhongli Yueluo also picked some for him, looking at the bowls that looked like a small mountain.

I'll grit my teeth and eat it all, even if it brings tears to my eyes.

I ate while drinking tea, otherwise I just couldn't swallow it.

With great difficulty, he swallowed the last bite and let out a long breath.

Su Fengjun, however, slowly put down his chopsticks and sat there quietly, like a wooden stake.

At this moment, a commotion arose from the crowd, seemingly shouts and cheers.

Zhongli Yueluo's eyes lit up immediately. Other races would also come when the lantern festival was held.

Many acrobats would also come, and she enjoyed watching them.

Not far from them, there was a street performer.

There, a man with a long spear twirled around his neck and twirled fireballs, attracting people to stop and watch.

Su Fengjun also looked in that direction. He didn't find it interesting, but seeing that she was engrossed in it, he didn't say anything.

She stood up and held out her hand to him: "Want to come? It's lively, let's go and see."

He didn't reach out; he stood up on his own and crossed his arms over his chest.

Zhongli Yueluo knew he was just being shy, so she went over and insisted on taking his hand: "Let's go."

He was pulled along by her, and after looking around and finding that no one was paying attention to them, he let her lead him, a slight smile playing on his lips.

They squeezed into the crowd to watch the colorful acrobatics.

It's clearly the most inferior spell, yet they've made it look so fancy.

Zhongli Yueluo watched intently and kept playing the drums.

Su Fengjun's eyes were always on her; seeing her smile happily made him happy too.

He leaned closer to her, as if afraid she would be jostled by the onlookers.

However, due to the large number of people, crowding was unavoidable, so he gently pulled her into his arms.
