Chapter 81 - Art of Teasing (1/2)
Everyone around Princess Bang-Gwi were trying to stifle their laughter after Chuhan Jwi shoved that bread in her mouth. The Princess eventually swallowed the bread and looked at Chuhan Jwi like she was innocent and didn't say anything wrong.
*coughs* "What was that for Jwi!" The Princess exclaimed.
"I did nothing wrong at all, you just looked hungry after talking too much." Chuhan Jwi said with a sweet smile on her face.
Princess Bang-gwi stuck her tongue out at Chuhan Jwi in defiance. The excitement of having the Princess around finally settled down so the people standing around found their own seats in the mess hall. The few other soldiers that were able to sit near the Princess were interested in getting to know her better after seeing how much effort she put into training and wasn't all talk.
Vincent felt a little awkward as he was the only male that had a seat close to the Princess since the female soldiers bullied the male soldiers for the seats near the Princess. The Princess wasn't completely oblivious to this though and felt a little bad for him.
"Hey! Vinnie! Don't you have any friends that you normally sit with?"
Vinnie didn't answer at first as he wasn't sure the Princess was talking to him since he wasn't used to being called Vinnie. "… What? Oh, well, yes of course." Vincent motioned towards a table with 3 soldiers at it and an empty seat.
"We came from the same town in what was once Eastern Europe, can't remember what country it used to be though." Vincent said with a downcast expression.
"What happened that you can't even tell which country your town was formerly part of?" The Princess asked curiously.
Chuhan Jwi actually spoke up first and said "Obviously you didn't pay attention during History lessons…"
Vincent looked at Chuhan Jwi and added "Probably not, but…" Vincent wanted to continue but he knew it was better to not bring it up as it was a difficult subject to explain.
Still, the Princess looked at him with pleading eyes, asking him to explain what she is missing. "I'll tell you about it later, plus I'm sure you want to meet my friends and comrades."
The Princess flashed him a big smile "Yay! Thanks Vinnie!"
Vicent scratched his head in embarassment and added "I don't like it when you call me Vinnie."
The Princess childishly stuck her tongue out at him and said "And I don't like it when you call me Princess."
Xiǎng Pigu was smiling with both of them while watching their exchange, a few of the people around them all started giggling after seeing the Princess act childishly.
Chuhan Jwi was very happy for the Princess, even though it was at a military base, this was the first time she felt that the Princess had made friends that didn't base their friendship on her status as the Princess. Still, she would always be vigilant because if anyone was out to harm the Princess, they would indeed be very patient.
The Princess saw Vincent take a drink and suddenly asked "So Vinnie, what's your favorite type of girl?"
Vincent immediately choked on what he was drinking and almost spit it up causing everyone around them to laugh. "Princess, don't ask that so suddenly! I am not in to girls."
The Princess's, Xiǎng Pigu's, Chuhan Jwi's, and every other female's eyes opened wide as they started picturing the various boys love scenes in their heads.
Vincent quickly started waving his hands while saying "Not like that! I mean I don't have time for girls so I haven't really considered it... but if I had to I'd say I prefer mature women, ummm... what about you Princess?"
"Me? I like girls that are fun and easy to get along with!" the Princess said honestly.
The few guys in the area that heard this and even a few of the girls started to picture the Princess with another girl.
