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

In this way, Xia Yechen gave several instructions, and Song Ling wrote them down one by one before leaving.

Zhou Xiaoyuan knew nothing about these.

She only knew that soon after returning to her yard, Song Ling sent someone over to inform her that the prince would come here for dinner later.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was stunned and said in surprise: "Why is it so sudden? I didn't even ask Aqi and the others to come with me. I'll send someone to call them together first..."

Before he finished speaking, Song Ling had already walked out and shook his head. Behind him were servants who were already preparing to serve food.

He waved his hand, and the dishes gathered on the table like water.

Zhou Xiaoyuan only felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say anything. She hesitated for a moment before asking: "Does the prince have any other instructions? Why don't you let me call Archi and the others together?"

Hearing this, Song Ling then answered, "Go back to my lady, the prince has told me to have dinner with my lady, preferably without anyone else."

After saying this, Zhou Xiaoyuan became nervous for no reason.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask carefully, Song Ling seemed to hear something. He took a step back and respectfully made way for the people coming from behind. Facing Zhou Xiaoyuan, he said back: "The prince is here, please let me know if you have anything to say." Ask the prince."

After saying that, Song Ling left directly, his movements seemed to be quite fast, as if he was escaping from some Shura field.

Zhou Xiaoyuan looked more and more puzzled, hesitantly turned her head and looked at Xia Yechen again, and after a while she asked: "Songling said you don't want me to call Sister Wu and the others together, why?"

Hearing this, the man was not surprised. He took Zhou Xiaoyuan's hand and motioned for her to sit down first.

If it had been before, Zhou Xiaoyuan would have unnaturally retracted her hand at this moment, but she didn't know

Thinking of something, she hesitated for a moment, but endured the discomfort and let Xia Yechen lead her forward.

This made Xia Yechen, who originally thought she would throw her away, stunned for a moment, but it was only for a moment, and his expression quickly returned to normal.

He also smiled lightly and said, "You seem to be in a much better mood."

Zhou Xiaoyuan tilted her head, not being fooled, "How did you tell? But... you still didn't seem to say, why didn't you let me call them over?"

In fact, when asking, Zhou Xiaoyuan also guessed the obvious point. Her face turned slightly hot and she coughed lightly.

Sure enough, the next moment the man said freely:

"It's nothing. I just think that I have been back for so long and I haven't spent much time alone with you. I feel a little regretful. As for Archie and the others, we can go find them at any time, right?"

Although these words convinced Zhou Xiaoyuan, inevitably, she still slowly became restless.

Even if this day had been expected, imagination and reality were always different, especially now that Xia Yechen was in a very strange state...

Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't tell what was wrong specifically.

Shaking her head, she could only think that it was because she was too nervous. Zhou Xiaoyuan tried her best to smile. She was about to talk to Xia Yechen, but she didn't expect that the man didn't notice.

He didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly gave Zhou Xiaoyuan a piece of food with chopsticks. His tone was extremely gentle, but also had a subtle weirdness.

Xia Yechen said: "How about trying this?"

For some reason, Zhou Xiaoyuan heard a feeling of expectation and uneasiness from it. She was stunned for a moment, raised her head and looked at it intently.

Xia Yechen didn't understand why this person had such a tone.

With such hesitation, Zhou Xiaoyuan naturally had no intention of moving her chopsticks. She frowned and stared at the dish without speaking.

The atmosphere on the table suddenly became subtle. It was not as embarrassing as before, but instead had a hint of gunpowder.

Of course, this could not have been initiated by Zhou Xiaoyuan.

In fact, Xia Yechen had been very strange from the beginning, and it was even more strange to suddenly arrange dinner and talk about spending time together. But Zhou Xiaoyuan noticed from the beginning that Song Ling was always outside the door, and he didn't even hide his feelings at all. Sense of presence.

Otherwise, how could she, a person who didn't know martial arts, detect the movement of Ouchi's extremely skilled guard? What a joke.

Zhou Xiaoyuan's expression was subtle, but Xia Yechen suddenly put down his chopsticks.

The man's tone suddenly softened, and there was no meaning. He seemed to just say it casually, sighing that she had changed so much.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan felt even weirder. She blinked and asked frankly: "Why do you think so? Sister Wu also said that I haven't changed at all."

Xia Yechen laughed again after hearing this, and said casually, "The appearance remains the same, but the taste is quite different."

"You used to like these very much, but now... you don't even have the thought of using chopsticks. Isn't this a big change?"

If Zhou Xiaoyuan had reached this point and hadn't realized that Xia Yechen was testing her just now, then she could be called stupid. For a moment, Zhou Xiaoyuan even felt angry.

She never expected that Xia Yechen would test her out so loudly at this time. Maybe she shouldn't have kept it secret from the beginning.

With.

But the thought was only fleeting.

Zhou Xiaoyuan knew very well that she never regretted the choices she made, but from the first time she met Xia Yechen, the choices she could make were no longer the choices she wanted to make. Now she has no way to look back. , so she would never regret it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoyuan stopped moving her chopsticks. Instead, she imitated Xia Yechen and twitched the corners of her lips, saying quietly: "I don't want to change my taste, but with the look at home, how many times can I afford to eat these dishes?" ?”

It's not that there are no ways to deal with it. Zhou Xiaoyuan knew in her heart that Xia Yechen's initial guilt was definitely not an act.

No one can pretend to be guilty for that long. It can only be said that he suddenly discovered some key evidence.

Zhou Xiaoyuan urgently thought about what she had done these days.

But in the end she still had no clue. She came to her senses, sighed again, and began to use tricks to protect herself.

Xia Yechen asked her "Why do you want to eat some now?" and she said, "Because I haven't eaten for a long time and I have stopped eating it a long time ago." The man was obviously unwilling to give up like this, and he still tried to persuade her in his words.

What to say, "Now that you have the conditions, you should try it again, just in case you think back to the taste at that time and find that you still want to eat it."

At this point, Zhou Xiaoyuan actually no longer wants to act.

She glanced at Xia Yechen expressionlessly, picked up the chopsticks and stuffed them into her mouth, then asked softly: "Is this enough? Maybe you want to ask me if I can eat this dish?"

"Or maybe this? This? You have to eat this too, right?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan asked, then picked up the dishes on the plate with chopsticks and ate them.

One mouthful, as if provocative, her eyes never left Xia Yechen.
