The next day, Jiang Fenghua woke up and found herself in Xie Shang's arms again. Thinking of the aphrodisiac she had used on him last night, a smug sneer appeared at the corner of her lips. "Su Tingwan, you just have to wait for me in this life!"

Just as she was about to reach out and touch his nose, Xie Shang suddenly moved as if he was about to wake up. She quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Xie Shang suddenly turned over and placed one of his long legs on Jiang Fenghua's leg, just touching her ankle.

Jiang Fenghua pushed him but couldn't move him. She said gently, "My Lord, you pressed my foot. It hurts. Please let me go. I am not Miss Su. Please look carefully. You are hurting me."

Xie Shang was awakened by her scream. He opened his eyes and saw the person in his arms. The scene of him breaking into the room last night flashed through his mind. He felt a splitting headache and could not remember what happened after he knocked Jiang Fenghua down.

Seeing that he had taken off his clothes and they were being so intimate, he pushed her away suddenly.

Then, he heard the sobbing sound again. He turned his head and saw the woman curled up weakly, with mist in her eyes, as if she had been bullied.

As if he had thought of something, he stood up from the bed as if struck by lightning, instantly sobered up, and began to explain incoherently, "I...we...didn't...why are you crying again? I didn't do anything to you!"

"Your Highness pressed on my foot. I was in so much pain that I couldn't hold back my tears. I want to go back home today. My foot is so injured and I'm afraid my mother will worry." Jiang Fenghua directly proposed to go back home.

Xie Shang felt relieved, this meant that nothing had happened between him and her, and she was crying only because her foot was stepped on.

He had seen how delicate she was yesterday, and how she couldn't bear the slightest pain. He confirmed again, "I was drunk last night, so I don't remember clearly. What were your clothes?"

Jiang Fenghua said pitifully, "The prince slept like a pig. I couldn't wake him up even if I called him. He held me and kept calling me Wanwan. The prince must have mistaken me for Miss Su. I tried to take him off but couldn't. I asked the maid to come in and help me take off the prince's clothes. They smelled of alcohol, so the maid washed them. In the end, I was too tired and slept next to the prince."

Her face was full of sincerity, fearing that he would misunderstand, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will sleep separately until dawn, nothing happened, it's all clean and innocent."

He suddenly said, "I'm sorry." Jiang Fenghua did nothing wrong, but he treated her like this.

She just wanted to make Xie Shang feel guilty for hugging his wife while calling another woman's name.

"You don't have to say sorry. The prince is a gentleman and has done nothing out of line." She said gently, "It's just that I have to go back home today. My father and mother must be waiting for us at home."

Xie Shang seemed to have thought of something. Today was the day he and Wanwan had agreed to marry her. He came to talk to Jiang Fenghua about this last night. He promised to go to the Su Mansion to pick up Wanwan.

"Do I have to go back?" Xie Shang asked tentatively in a lowered voice.

Jiang Fenghua's cheeks were still covered with tears. "When a woman gets married, she must give gifts to her parents. If the husband does not accompany his wife to her parents' home, the woman will not be able to survive in the future."

"It's so serious." He didn't quite understand the rules.

"Yes." She nodded heavily. "Your Majesty, I've said before that I won't disturb you and Miss Su. I just want Your Majesty to give my Jiang family some respect. I'll just take up a little bit of Your Majesty's time."

Xie Shang saw her face flushed red, "I mean, your foot is injured like this, it's inconvenient."

"Even if my legs are broken, I will crawl back." She turned her eyes away from him.

Xie Shang said, "So be it!" Why are you still angry?

Jiang Fenghua's expression changed quickly. She stared at him blankly, then limped to him and held his arm. "The prince said that he would accompany me back to the mansion to meet my parents. If the prince can go, they will definitely be very happy."

Her face was full of tear marks and smiles. Her perfect figure was like a carefully crafted work of art. Her snow-white skin was even more charming in the morning light. He was fascinated for a moment and couldn't help but fall for her.

Xie Shang nodded, "I will go back with you."

Jiang Fenghua flattered him and supported him, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then she shouted outside, "Hongxiu, Lianye, Madam Xu, prepare an extra breakfast and fetch some water to get ready for dressing. We are going back to the Jiang residence today, and I miss my father and mother so much."

When she talked about returning to the Jiang family and her parents, her pretty face was filled with smiles, her eyes were bright and dazzling, and her whole body revealed that she was very happy and cheerful like a bird in the woods.

As soon as she finished speaking, the maids filed in. Jiang Fenghua saw that she was only wearing a bellyband and underwear, and her eyes were filled with shyness. She glanced at Xie Shang and quickly hid behind the screen, "Your Highness, please wash up first. I will be there soon."

Behind the screen, her waist-length hair was like a curtain of water, and her bright and charming figure outlined her perfect figure.

Xie Shang was a little stunned. He only reacted when he heard her voice and felt his face flush. At this time, Aunt Xu came over. The maid held a few clothes in her hand. She said, "Which one does the prince want to wear today?"

Xie Shang pointed casually and selected an indigo blue robe. Nanny Xu nodded to the maid, and the maid quickly stepped back and selected a light blue long-sleeved dress for Jiang Fenghua.

When the two finished washing up and appeared in front of each other, they were both stunned for a moment.

Jiang Fenghua was wearing a light blue dress with a fitted waist and a bottom today. Her sleeves were lightly covered with jasmine flowers of the color of lotus. Her long black hair was tied into an exquisite bun. Her graceful figure was slender and graceful. A tassel of the same color fell from her waist, creating ripples in the wind.

Xie Shang was wearing an indigo brocade robe with the collar and cuffs embroidered with silver silk edges with flowing cloud patterns. Around his waist he wore a wide brocade belt with auspicious clouds of the same color, and a moon-white jade pendant. His hair was tied up with a silver crown inlaid with jade, and he wore black leather boots with gold-thread cloud patterns. He was already handsome, and this outfit made him look even more extraordinary and elegant.

Nanny Xu's design was also clever. She set up the breakfast for the prince and princess in the pavilion in the garden. As the morning light came out and wisps of clouds came down from the sky, the two people standing in the courtyard looked like a fairy couple.

Lian Ye brought up the exquisite meal and deliberately walked between the two of them, "Your Highness, Princess, please take a seat." His eyes were fixed on them, and he still said that he didn't like my princess.

Xie Shang quickly avoided the sight and walked straight towards the pavilion. He was indeed hungry. He had only been drinking last night and did not eat much of the dinner prepared by the housekeeper.

The food on the table gave off a faint aroma, and his taste buds seemed to be awakened. His stomach felt empty, and he felt even hungrier when he saw it.

He swallowed his saliva, and Madam Xu introduced, "This old servant prepared a steamed osmanthus cake for the princess. The cake is soft and glutinous, and there is also a silver bird's nest porridge. The porridge is thick but not greasy, smooth and nourishing, and there is also a small piece of rose cake. Milk almond cake is the princess' favorite, and... I also prepared a portion for the prince."

Xie Shang looked in the direction of Aunt Xu's finger. Everything was very delicate, but there were only two small pieces on each plate. He wondered if this was an extra portion? Did Jiang Fenghua usually only eat one piece of each dish?

He slowly sat down in his seat.

Jiang Fenghua sat elegantly on the stool and said gently, "Your Highness, please enjoy your meal." Then he stopped talking.

Xie Shang nodded.

There were only small forks, small spoons, chopsticks and soup spoons prepared in front of me. The spoons were cute and miniature in size.

Xie Shang simply picked up the chopsticks that were more comfortable to use and started eating.

Jiang Fenghua chewed slowly with a small spoon. She had to scoop ten times to finish a small piece of cake. But the way she ate was so beautiful. For some reason, he didn't feel disgusted when he saw her being so delicate.

A thought suddenly popped up in Xie Shang's mind: if a man marries a daughter raised in a scholarly family like the Jiang family, it would at least be respectable enough for him to marry such a woman!

The breakfast took half an hour, and the two of them didn't say a word during the whole process.

In the end, Xie Shang just felt that he was not full, but was too embarrassed to say anything. The meals prepared by the Jiang family were indeed exquisite and delicious, with good color, aroma and taste, which made people want to eat more.
