C173 (1/2)

Everyone here had their own unspeakable thoughts and secrets, while she, like the clearest judge, coldly watched everything that happened here!

In the whole bonfire party, there was one person who appeared absent-minded. He liked to be lively, so he didn't drink with the other princes. All he did was drink one cup after another with a cold expression.

Xiao Rou's gaze was focused on him from the distance between them and the campfire. Under the illumination of the flames, his handsome face had a faint flow of luster.

The eighth prince was in a bad mood!

She lightly bit her lower lip and indicated to Xiao Shan, who was sitting behind Feng Ye, that she was a female guest. Under everyone's gazes, walking alone to the side of a prince would definitely attract the attention of others, but with her elder brother with her, things would be different.

Xiao Shan understood. He got up and brought Xiao Rou to Feng Ye. When Xiao Rou smelled the strong aroma of the wine on Feng Ye's body, she immediately felt her heart tremble.

Xiao Shan lifted his wine cup and said, ”Eighth Prince, allow us siblings to accompany you for a drink.”

”Eighth Prince, Rou Er will drink with you.”

Feng Ye was in a gloomy mood when he suddenly heard a flirtatious voice. He immediately grew annoyed and turned around to discover that it was the Xiao siblings.

He suppressed the impatience in his heart, picked up his wine cup, and said perfunctorily, ”If This King does it, you can do it.”

”...” ”Your Highness, don't drink anymore …” When Xiao Rou saw that he was about to drink another cup of wine, she hurriedly used her hand to cover the mouth of the cup. The body's shoulders subconsciously moved closer to his chest. ”Drinking like this will harm the body.”

When Xu Xianfei saw the situation on Feng Ye's side, she frowned and asked unhappily, ”Is the person beside Ye'er the daughter of General Xiao Zhenhai, Xiao Rou?”

”In reply to the Empress, yes.” Gong mama bowed and replied.

Although she was the daughter of the great general Xiao Zhenhai, she was a very cautious person. She had been in the palace for several decades, and after reaching the rank of the fourth concubine, she clearly knew that in order to survive in the palace, she had to have a very bad character.

This carelessness would bring disaster to Ye'er.

”General Xiao is cultured and wise, and his three sons are all outstanding. This daughter of his seems to be spoiled a little.” Her tone was slightly cold as she said.

Feeling the body of an unfamiliar woman approaching, Feng Ye reached out his hand that was holding the wine cup to block her. Separated by a distance, he coldly said, ”This king knows what to do and does not like to be controlled. Miss Xiao, you are overthinking it!”

Her face showed an awkward expression as she bit her lower lip, her eyes filled with mist. As Xiao Zhenhai's precious daughter, she always had what she wanted, there were countless famous sect young masters waiting for her to marry into their family, but she didn't even blink as she watched the eighth prince treat her coldly.

She felt somewhat wronged as she said, ”I'm sorry, Your Highness. Rou'er spoke too much. Rou'er only saw that Your Highness was in a bad mood and wanted to take care of you.”

”Thank you. This King just felt that the wine was very good and wanted to drink a few more cups. This King was not in a bad mood nor was there anything on his mind.” A fake smile appeared on Feng Ye's face. This smile was so fake that he couldn't even conceal it.

”But …”

”Rou Er …” Seeing this, Xiao Shan hurriedly stopped Xiao Rou and shook his head before bowing towards Feng Ye. ”Your Highness, we siblings will be troubling you. Please enjoy your meal.”
