She said, "I guessed."
Wu Xufan was startled.
"The Prince is not good at speaking," Ye Qichi explained.
Thus, Ye Qichi meant that the phrase "a graceful presence like a jade tree in the wind" was not said by Xiao Jinxing, but was her conjecture.
After understanding this, Wu Xufan laughed heartily again, "Princess Chen is more humorous than I thought."
Ye Qichi also gave a slight smile.
"Why haven’t the feast started yet?" Xiao Jinxing suddenly said coldly by his side.
"What, are you jealous because I am talking to your sister-in-law?!" Wu Xufan deliberately said.
Xiao Jinxing gave Wu Xufan a big eye roll.
He pushed his wheelchair and entered the room where the banquet was held.
Wu Xufan hurriedly said to Ye Qichi, "That’s just how he is, not everyone can befriend him, I don’t even know how I came to be friends with him initially."
Ye Qichi smiled lightly again.
It was clear that Wu Xufan’s acting skills were poor.
Everyone took their seats at the table.
"Originally, I had prepared for beauties to perform a dance, but since the Princess is here..."
"It’s okay, I would also like to see the beauties dance," Ye Qichi quickly said.
Wu Xufan looked at Xiao Jinxing sitting in the main seat.
Xiao Jinxing did not speak.
Generally, his silence is considered consent.
Wu Xufan obviously knew his character well and quickly had the prepared performance commence.
Ye Qichi watched as the beauties danced in their translucent garments, their figures enchantingly semi-visible as they gracefully moved.
Wu Xufan and Ye Qichi watched with great interest, whereas Xiao Jinxing was completely indifferent.
Seeming not to glance even once.
Casually eating his meal, leisurely sipping his wine.
Once the dance was over.
Ye Qichi applauded, "Good, very well danced."
Wu Xufan was slightly taken aback.
This Princess Chen is even more excited than a grown man.
He cleared his throat and said, "Reward!"
Since the Princess liked it so much, of course, face must be given.
"Thank you, young master." The dancer quickly bowed in gratitude.
She took the reward and then left.
Ye Qichi asked, "Aren’t there any other performances?"
"What else would the Princess like to see?"
"Acrobatics, playing the guqin, performance... shouldn’t you have them all?" Ye Qichi asked.
"..." He can play harder than me.
He laughed, "The Lord Chen does not like these, so I did not prepare them in advance, will make up for it next time."
"Oh." Ye Qichi was still a bit disappointed.
Wu Xufan found Ye Qichi ever more interesting.
He gazed deeply at the woman before him.
At that moment, it felt as if a piercing gaze shot over.
Wu Xufan quickly looked away.
He couldn’t help but think.
Xiao Jinxing suddenly caring this much, this was... something fishy!
"I have not hosted well and failed to entertain the Princess thoroughly, I will penalize myself with a drink," saying that, Wu Xufan quickly picked up his cup and downed it.
After drinking, he immediately had someone fill his glass again, "I will toast to the Princess separately."
Ye Qichi did not refuse and drank with Wu Xufan.
The liquor was strong, and evidently not low in alcohol content.
After finishing the drink.
Wu Xufan found reasons to drink a few more cups with her.
Ye Qichi probably guessed their intention.
They just wanted to get her drunk?!
For a moment, she thought about letting Wu Xufan taste his own medicine but thinking it over, she could not hinder the grand plans of Lord Dog Prince, and thus went with the flow, laying down on the banquet table after a dozen cups.
Aside from Gu Xingchuan and Xiang Qin, no one else knew where her limit was.
Seeing Ye Qichi down, Wu Xufan then turned to look at Xiao Jinxing.
Xiao Jinxing nodded slightly, "Little Wu."
"Help me onto the wheelchair."
"But..." Little Wu hesitated a little.
Xiao Jinxing frowned.
Feeling the Prince’s mood, Little Wu hurriedly explained, "This humble one is still holding the Princess’s little rabbit."
"Throw it away," Xiao Jinxing’s expression darkened.
"But the Princess asked this humble one to take good care of it."
"Little Wu!" Xiao Jinxing’s tone was stern.
Little Wu, feeling torn, thought for a moment and then handed the little rabbit to Wu Xufan’s attendant beside him, "Hold this for me."
The attendant was baffled.
Xiao Jinxing’s eyes narrowed.
Little Wu pretended not to see it, and hurriedly helped the Prince up, his heart also uneasy.
Fortunately, the Prince did not scold him.
Once there was no comment, it meant that this matter could be dealt with.
Little Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The Prince was just being hard-mouthed.
In fact, in the end, he would still go along with the Princess.
After Xiao Jinxing was seated in the wheelchair, Wu Xufan already came over, pushing him away.
The two of them moved towards the corridor, closing the screen behind them.
