The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

Just listening to this conversation, who would believe that they are actually a family?

There was a feeling that it was contrary to the original owner's hope... Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't help but feel a little frightened, fearing that Xia Yechen would be unhappy about this, and she would be in trouble if she tried to coax him.

Thinking like this, Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't help but steal a few glances at Xia Yechen, but she didn't expect that the man didn't seem surprised.

He just lowered his eyes, his expression tainted with a hint of vulnerability.

It was normal to speak quickly, and he even softened his tone intentionally, "What do you want to eat today? I asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of Nini's favorite food. She is very happy."

Xia Yechen seemed to be talking to Nini, but when he looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan, his eyes were burning.

It took a while for Zhou Xiaoyuan to realize the connection.

This man seemed to think that if he didn't bring Nini with her when talking to her, he would kick him out.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoyuan twitched the corner of her mouth, not knowing what to say, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that she was right. After all, when she just heard about breakfast, her first thought was to find an excuse for Xia Yechen to prepare it. Nini’s favorite food.

There was nothing that could be done now. Should it be said that the man had predicted her? Or is my resistance too obvious?

The former is okay, but if it's the latter, then you really need to reflect on it.

But in fact, how can it be so easy?

Zhou Xiaoyuan lamented in her heart, taking it as acquiescence if she didn't say anything. Several people sat down at the table and waited for the breakfast to be served. If Nini hadn't held one by the hand, Zhou Xiaoyuan would have been able to sit far away.

One reason is that she doesn't want to embarrass the little girl, and the other reason is that Zhou Xiaoyuan also wants to persuade her to accept Xia Yechen.

The two of them sat awkwardly

down.

Fortunately, it was not face to face, otherwise Zhou Xiaoyuan would have wanted to die.

But even so, there was still an embarrassing silence flowing in the air. Even if Xia Yechen was not angry because of her resistance, he didn't look like he could endure this weird silence.

Zhou Xiaoyuan struggled for a while and almost couldn't help but speak out to break the silence, but after thinking about it again, she didn't know what to say.

After a long silence, Xia Yechen finally spoke suddenly.

The man suddenly poked Nini, his tone was soft, and he even seemed a little well-behaved. The little girl obviously liked this, she blinked, turned her head and conveyed his intention to Zhou Xiaoyuan.

In fact, it was very simple, just asking Zhou Xiaoyuan's daily preferences in a flattering way.

The man seemed to feel that Zhou Xiaoyuan should have changed a lot since he had been gone for so many years.

Zhou Xiaoyuan even felt that this person was completely guilty of her.

But it's good to think about it this way. At least it proves that he didn't abandon his wife on purpose. It seems that the original owner's decision is a little bit easier to understand... which is strange.

Zhou Xiaoyuan's face was expressionless, thinking that she still couldn't perfectly integrate into the role, otherwise she would just pretend that she was acting.

As a result, as soon as Zhou Xiaoyuan opened her mouth during this performance, Xia Yechen's eyes lit up. His worthless look made Zhou Xiaoyuan's heart itch, and she always felt that something was not right.

She hesitated for a moment, not wanting to beat around the bush, and asked proactively: "...Don't you think I've changed a lot?"

"Don't you think my attitude towards you is too cold?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan said, actually she was a little nervous and tangled, her eyes were a little erratic, almost

He almost didn't dare to look directly into Xia Yechen's eyes.

But Xia Yechen misunderstood something. He thought Zhou Xiaoyuan was uneasy, so he shook his head, as if to reassure her and said, "Don't worry, I know everything."

"I've been gone for so long, you must have suffered a lot. It's normal that you can't accept me for a while now..."

"But what I don't lack most now is time. We can take our time and start over!"

Speaking of the latter part, Xia Yechen's tone was obviously a little excited.

And Zhou Xiaoyuan...

She had to admit that when Xia Yechen said that she "knew everything", her heart almost stopped. She thought she had been exposed somewhere, but when she heard it, she realized that nothing happened.

This person still regarded himself as the original owner, and only thought that the strangeness and irregularities were due to time.

But in fact, he is not the original owner at all.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was complaining in her heart, but when she thought about it, the original owner's entrustment slowly rang in her ears.

Well, you still can't ignore it. After all, you promised and you can't go back on it. Zhou Xiaoyuan persuaded herself, while unconsciously looking at Xia Yechen's face, looking up and down with a slightly scrutinizing gaze.

In fact, to be honest, Xia Yechen looks really good. When he was a poor boy, his face was perfect.

Nowadays, with the blessing of nobility, men can see to the naked eye that they are much more confident.

Different from the common belief in modern times, youthfulness often comes from self-confidence, and high-spirited men are always the most handsome.

And it just so happened that Xia Yechen looked like this, not to mention his eyes were gentle when he lowered his head, but when he turned his head

When talking to unrelated people, your tone will sound a bit harsher.

It has to be said that Zhou Xiaoyuan is very fond of this kind of double standard. After all, she is also a double standard person who helps her relatives but does not take care of them.

To sum up all the above, Xia Yechen is indeed a dominant stock.

Taking into account the financial resources, status and power of Prince Rong's Palace, judging from her mate selection standards, she can score at least ninety points.

As for why the ten points were deducted... Zhou Xiaoyuan hadn't thought about it yet. She just subconsciously felt that she couldn't give this man full marks casually. After all, there were still a lot of things standing between them.

But to be honest, ninety percent is pretty good.

With a perfect score of 100, Zhou Xiaoyuan has almost never met a man with such a high score in modern times, so if the original owner's words are to be followed, Xia Yechen is indeed a man worth trusting.

From this point of view, it doesn't mean that she has been buried. Zhou Xiaoyuan deeply agrees with this and thinks that it would be good to agree.

But even though she was thinking this, Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't show it too obviously.

After all, too much contrast between front and back would make people suspicious, so Zhou Xiaoyuan thought for a while, then nodded slightly, looking confused but reluctantly agreeing, and said: "I understand... thank you very much."

She looked sad, and Xia Yechen couldn't bear it. He paused and said, "Don't worry, take your time, don't worry about me."

The man's expression was sincere, and it seemed that Zhou Xiaoyuan's psychological defense was indeed a little loose.

But the next moment, when she heard the name Xia Yechen muttered, Zhou Xiaoyuan suddenly woke up.

…In the end, it’s still her.

Zhou Xiaoyuan's mood was a little subtle. She was not happy for some reason. She was probably possessive. She didn't want to think deeply about it.

, but he also put forward a condition: "...you can call me by my nickname from now on."
