Chapter 108 Prying the corner
The cold voice of the system sounded in my mind again: "Hello, host, the bond value has not changed for the time being."
Zhu Yu frowned slightly when he heard this and fell into deep thought. After a while, he murmured, "Do we have to wait until Liu Yinyin takes the things before we break off the relationship?"
After a moment of silence, the system slowly spoke: "I'm sorry, host, human emotions are too complicated, I can't predict them." There was a hint of helplessness in its tone. Originally, it thought that the bond value was the love for Liu Yinyin, but as time went by, it gradually discovered that things were not that simple. The inner world of humans is like an unfathomable mystery, which makes it feel confused and powerless.
The system sighed secretly. It didn't dare to comment on such things easily.
The system doesn't dare to comment on such things easily. After all, it used to think that the bond value was the love for Liu Yinyin. But later on, it seemed that it wasn't the case. Humans are really too complicated.
Zhu Yu did not hesitate and started chatting with Prince Jing: "Your Highness, I really don't like eating apples, because I ate too much for a while and got hurt. So, you should eat the apple, it would be a waste if I eat it." Prince Jing saw that she did not look fake, so he wanted to take the apple back, but it was taken away by a hand that stretched out.
The owner of this hand is none other than the King of Qi, who has been quiet for a long time recently. Today, the King of Qi has changed his extravagant and exaggerated style and has become more simple and low-key. He is wearing a dark royal blue costume, which is more stable and restrained. The overall dress style looks more mature and confident. His eyes are no longer confused and empty as usual, but become deep and firm, as if telling the growth and changes in his heart. The whole person's facial expression is gentler, and the smile becomes more sincere and kind.
However, his behavior was still so annoying, and his next move destroyed the decent image he had worked so hard to maintain. He casually rubbed the apple on his body a few times, and then there was the crisp sound of biting the apple - "crunch, crunch". While eating, he kept muttering: "Hmm... Not bad! Fifth brother, your apple tastes really good, where did you get it? I'll ask someone to buy some later and send it to Rouyuan to try." Prince Jing's face sank on the spot. That was the apple that A Yu asked her to eat. He wanted to go back and secretly taste it to see if it was especially delicious.
Zhu Yu forced himself to hold back his laughter and lowered his head, pretending to concentrate on sipping his tea.
The King of Qi seemed not to notice the change in atmosphere. After eating one apple, he even stared at the King of Jing with an unsatisfied look, as if he was trying to please him by asking for more apples. "Since Seventh Brother likes it, go to my tent and get it." The King of Jing said this through his teeth.
"Oh, how can I do this? Fifth brother, you are so polite! I just wanted to try something new. Please tell me where you bought it, and I will ask my servants to buy more and send some to the Duke of Zhenguo and others." The King of Qi laughed and fawned on his future father-in-law and his family. He put in a lot of thought and spared no effort!
Prince Jing took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner turmoil. In fact, he also bought two baskets for Zhu Wenyun, but at this moment he felt a little embarrassed, as if he was inspired by this dandy boy to do so. So he pretended to be calm and said, "I have something important to deal with, so I will go first." Then he turned and left.
"Hey, hey, hey, Fifth Brother, don't leave so quickly! You haven't told me where you bought it yet!" King Qi hurriedly chased after him and shouted. However, King Jing quickened his pace without even turning his head, and soon disappeared from sight.
After Prince Jing walked away, Prince Qi turned to look at Zhu Yu, raised his eyebrows, and asked with a smirk, "Hehehe, how far have you and Lao Wu gotten?"
"What step?" Zhu Yu looked at the King of Qi in confusion, his face full of bewilderment.
"Stop pretending! Everyone can see how much the fifth brother loves you!" The corners of King Qi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a teasing smile.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhu Yu explained seriously, "Prince Jing and I are just friends."
Seeing this, the King of Qi laughed even more proudly, "Hahaha, look at how nervous you are. Could it be that I was right?"
"If you keep talking nonsense like this, I'll be angry!" Zhu Yu glared at the King of Qi, picked up the teacup on the table and pretended to pour it on him.
The King of Qi quickly dodged and said, "My dear sister-in-law, I am wrong, isn't that okay? But to be honest, Lao Wu is a good person, you can consider him."
"Don't worry about my affairs!" Zhu Yu put down the teacup, "You should take care of yourself first, and stop thinking about other people's news all day long."
"I'm thinking about the future." King Qi scratched his head, "In order to marry Rouyuan, I even changed my camp."
"Are you sure you followed Prince Jing to marry Rouyuan? And, are you sure Rouyuan will marry you?" Zhu Yu couldn't help but tease him, "Maybe she already has someone she likes."
"No." The King of Qi said confidently, "I have already found out that Rouyuan has no lover, and her grandfather, the Duke of Zhenguo, also likes me very much."
“How do you know that…?” Zhu Yu curled his lips.
"Hmph, you are jealous of me!" King Qi made a face at Zhu Yu, then turned and left.
The playboy is no longer a playboy, but has returned to his innocent state. Well, good love can make people relax.
I don’t know whether he and Li Rouyuan will be a good match.
After dinner, Zhu Yu received a message from Liu Yinyin, who had the female guards send her a message that she wanted to see her, saying that she had something important to say. If Zhu Yu took the initiative to see her, then it wouldn't be her problem, right? She was confident that Zhu Yu would agree to help Prince Jing marry her.
After hearing what the female guard said, Zhu Yu calmly placed the teacup on the broken table next to him and simply replied with two words: "No!"
The female guard had obviously expected her to refuse. She stood there straight and bowed to Zhu Yu: "Miss Zhu, aren't you curious about what important things my master wants to discuss with you?"
Zhu Yu glanced at the standing female guard again and sighed in his heart, what a heroic woman! Her figure was as straight as a pine tree, with broad shoulders and a straight back, showing her good posture and well-trained physical fitness. Her waist was slender, but full of strength, and her movements were flexible and free. The whole person exuded a confident and calm temperament, with both the softness of a woman and the fortitude of a guard, which made people respect her.
However, Zhu Yu's gaze did not stay on the female guard for too long. She raised her head slightly and said in a firm tone: "No matter what important matter it is, it has nothing to do with me. There is not much intersection between your master and I." After that, she picked up the teacup, gently blew away the hot steam on the surface, and took a sip of tea leisurely.
A hint of surprise flashed across the female guard's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She took a deep breath and continued, "Ms. Zhu, I came here to discuss something important. My master said that if you refuse to meet me, this matter may have some impact on you. Please think twice, Miss Zhu."
Zhu Yu put down his teacup and sneered, "Oh? What's the matter that would affect me? Tell me about it."
The female guard hesitated for a moment, as if considering whether to reveal more information. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said in a low voice: "It's about the marriage of His Royal Highness Prince Jing..."
Hearing the words "Prince Jing's Royal Highness", Zhu Yu's face changed slightly, but then she regained her composure. She said calmly, "What does the marriage of Prince Jing's Royal Highness have to do with me?"
The female guard quickly explained: "Miss Zhu, please don't misunderstand. My master is not trying to compete with you for the position of Princess Jing."
Zhu Yu frowned and said impatiently, "Who becomes Prince Jing's wife has nothing to do with me. Go back. I still say the same thing: I won't see you."
But when her eyes fell on the female guard again, a trace of regret arose in her heart. What a good person she was, but she followed such a person. If, she meant if, it would be great to give her people a female instructor, which would be more useful than following Liu Yinyin.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yu also asked: "Have you ever thought about leaving Liu Yinyin and doing something else?"
