Chapter 118 Let’s Try It
Zhu Yu's mouth twitched, and she asked unnecessarily, whether in the past life or now, how many men can wrap this thing.
“Okay, I'll teach you. It's very easy.” She took two small stools and sat down side by side with Prince Jing. She wrapped two dumplings herself and let Prince Jing watch. Then she asked Prince Jing to wrap another one while she guided him. Prince Jing used the acting skills he had cultivated over the years. He stumbled with every step and needed Zhu Yu to reach out for guidance. The smell of glutinous rice, rice dumplings leaves, braised pork and spices, mixed with Zhu Yu's faint peach fragrance, disturbed his mind.
There’s no need to act. I really can’t make a normal rice dumpling.
Zhu Yu looked at the rice dumplings that were finally tied up with circles of string and fell into deep thought. She shouldn't have suggested making rice dumplings with Prince Jing, which would have made things difficult for both Prince Jing and herself. "How about..."
Zhu Yu was just about to turn around and tell Prince Jing that they should get a few people over to help wrap the dumplings so that things would be done faster, but she saw Prince Jing staring at her with deep affection and obsession in his eyes.
Zhu Yu: ... I feel a little embarrassed.
"Ayu." Prince Jing's tired voice still carried a hint of grievance: "Aren't you going to ask me how I handled Liu Yinyin's matter just now?"
Zhu Yu was stunned. Yes, what the system told her was one thing. She should also ask Prince Jing out of courtesy.
System: Damn, it’s just out of politeness…
Zhu Yu turned away awkwardly, washed his hands covered with glutinous rice in a basin of clean water, and asked, "How is it?"
Prince Jing also put his own hands into the basin of clean water and began to wash them. The two hands would occasionally touch each other in the narrow basin. Finally, Prince Jing simply took Zhu Yu's hand in his big palm and took it out: "A Yu, she agreed to take those things and leave. I have nothing to do with her anymore."
Zhu Yu's face was burning. It must be because the ventilation in the tent was too poor, she thought to herself.
"Oh."
"Ayu, look at me."
Zhu Yu looked up and met those affectionate eyes again: "Ayu, if you are willing, I will be yours, all of me is yours." Prince Jing's hand holding Zhu Yu was shaking slightly. It was just taken out of the basin, but it was still very hot.
Zhu Yu looked at Prince Jing, who was as nervous and shy as herself and couldn't speak clearly, and suddenly she was not so nervous anymore. It turned out that everyone was the same, so no one should laugh at anyone else.
She hooked her fingers in the palm of Prince Jing's hand and asked, "How can everything be mine? You will have concubines, mistresses, and mistresses in the future. I am afraid that one day, I will not even get a piece of your clothes." But what is there to be afraid of? She is not a dodder who only knows how to cling to others. She has the ability to support herself, and even more so, she can continue to eat, drink and have fun without a man. The worst that can happen is that he will just say, "It's just for fun." She will not necessarily suffer any loss.
Prince Jing's hands suddenly felt numb, and the numbing feeling spread all the way to his waist and abdomen, and rushed straight to a certain place. It turned out that what he heard when he passed by the military camp that day was true. When he met a girl he liked, he would have a reaction even if it was just holding hands.
But his mind was still able to think a little, he knew what Zhu Yu was worried about, even if this was the norm here, but he could understand Zhu Yu's worries. If Zhu Yu had ten or eight men, he would not be able to bear it and would not be willing to do it. In fact, men understand a lot of things, but because it involves their own interests, they often pretend to be stupid.
"Ayu, after we get married, I won't interfere with what you want to do. If necessary, I can provide help. You are rich and have your own ideas. I know you don't believe me when I tell you that you will be together for the rest of your lives. I wouldn't believe it either if I were you. But you have plenty of ways out, don't you? What are you afraid of? Why don't you give me a chance and let me prove to you that I can do it." Prince Jing's thoughts were a little confused. Although he could express the general meaning, his choice of words and sentences lacked the carefulness of the past.
But Zhu Yu understood and figured it out. Yes, what was there to be afraid of? It was not like she had no way out. First of all, she had money to support herself, and secondly, she had space to protect herself. What else was there to be afraid of? Prince Jing was so handsome, so he would not suffer any loss.
"Then, let's give it a try." There's nothing to be pretentious about.
"Ayu, Ayu, you, you say it again!" After being kept in suspense by Zhu Yu for so long, she finally gave in today. How could Prince Jing not be excited? The corners of his mouth slightly raised, forming an imperceptible arc, as if he was trying to suppress his inner excitement. However, the twinkling light in his eyes could not hide his joy, like the brightest star in the night sky, dazzling and eye-catching.
