nessed what happened. However, when she tried to inquire about it, both Gu Xuan Yi and Li Wan Er insisted it was a misunderstanding. Gu Xuan Yi claimed she acted first, while Li Wan Er said she spoke...How did you hurt your hand

How are we talking about peeling shrimp again

Did you guys still have a meal together

As someone who had been through something similar, Meng Jin Yao and Song Xin Ning's eyes lit up instantly. They sensed something fishy, feeling that there was more to the relationship between A Yan and Prince Shen than just an old grudge.

Then Meng Jiny Yao continued, "So you really peeled shrimp for him"

Princess Jingning nodded, sounding displeased: "I peeled them, only needing to feed them to his mouth. If I didn't peel shrimp for him, someone as petty and vengeful as him would bring up past grievances the next time we meet."

Meng Jin Yao was secretly surprised and continued to ask, "How come you guys are having dinner together"

Quiet Ning County Lord was furious: “He said I injured him and made me compensate him. Not only did I take him to the clinic for bandaging, he, a man, acted like a little delicate flower, being very melodramatic. The doctor even said that if he had come later, the wound would have healed. That's all well and good, in the end he even made me buy him a meal.

Upon hearing this, Meng Jingyao and Song Xining exchanged a meaningful glance, smiled deeply, and then nodded.

They'll compromise and still want to meet again because the other person has huge emotional swings, these two are definitely up to something.

Under normal circumstances, even if the Crown Prince was injured by A-Yan's hand, he wouldn't dare let the County Princess peel shrimp for him. A-Yan would definitely not compromise either. But the impossible became possible, and they even had a meal together.

This is definitely fishy!

Perhaps they themselves didn't notice, or perhaps Prince Shen did, but the emotionally insensitive A-Yan was unaware of her unusual feelings for Prince Shen.

However, in either situation, as an outsider it's best not to rashly expose the truth, otherwise it might backfire and ruin a good relationship. After all, if someone has their relationship exposed by an outsider, as "enemies," they are very likely to subconsciously avoid each other, and interactions in the future will feel awkward.

Boiling a frog in warm water is the best way. Let them fall into it unknowingly, and naturally, feelings will develop as if by fate.

Jing Ning, the county princess, noticed something was off and frowned, asking, "What are you laughing at I've been enslaved by him, and as good sisters, you should stand together against our enemy, yet you laugh"

Meng Jinyao shook her head hurriedly and smiled, "It's nothing, I just think you and Prince Shen have quite a bit of bad blood between you."

Quiet Ning, the princess, replied: "The debt was incurred several years ago. When I mistook him for someone else and pushed him into the pond, we incurred a debt. Fortunately, we saved him, and he let it go. Otherwise, he would definitely bring it up every time he saw me."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyang's smile deepened: "I think Prince Shen is quite good. At least he is a reasonable person. You seem to have quite a few opinions about him"

Princess Jingning talked incessantly, complaining with resentment: “It’s not that I have an opinion about him, it’s just that he’s stingy. It's fine that he acted like this last time, but before that, he gave me a rabbit. I thought braised rabbit was delicious, so I told the kitchen to make it. Afterward, when he asked me how the rabbit was, I said I ate it. He immediately got angry and demanded that I return the rabbit to him. I was also indignant. Since he gave me the rabbit, it’s mine, and I can't even eat it”

This left Meng Jinyang and Song Xining speechless. They had already reached the stage of exchanging rabbits as gifts, to say there was nothing between them would be unbelievable. It's just that this silly girl is truly adorable. She received a live rabbit as a gift, meant for playing with, but she ended up eating it! If it were meant as food, they should have sent her braised rabbit instead.

After a moment of silence, Meng Jin Yao asked: "So you still have the rabbit"

Jingning County Princess pouted and snorted softly: "I won't give it back. Things that have been given away can't be taken back! He must be dreaming! So, I ate another serving of braised rabbit in front of him, which made him very angry. He ignored me for a long time.

Meng Jin Yao couldn't help but smile. "Ayan, is it him who is infuriating you or are you the one infuriating him"

Quiet Princess Ning said without hesitation, "That must be because he made me angry! How could I possibly anger him We've known each other for so long, you don't know me at all"

Song Xining and Meng Jin Yao smiled knowingly, their eyes meeting in a silent understanding. Their gaze held a meaning only they could decipher.

Suddenly, Song Xining asked: "He'd never shown his face in front of acquaintances before, nor had he gone home. How did you meet him"

The quiet and peaceful princess shook her head slightly: "I don't know, I feel quite unlucky. This has happened several times already. Haven't you guys ever met him"

Song Xining and Meng Jin Yao both shook their heads in unison. Even if they had the opportunity to meet, that Lord Shen would probably avoid them. Only this silly girl could see him, and only this silly girl could be seen by him, which proved that he had never avoided her.

Quiet Ning, the county princess, curled her lips, both annoyed and disgusted: "Sure enough, only I am unlucky, only I keep running into him. Forget it, let's not mention him. Talking about him makes me angry. A petty person like him, who knows which blind girl will marry him in the future, she'll probably be driven to death by him.

Song Xining smiled and followed her words, "Okay, okay, let's not mention him. Then she said seriously, “Let’s talk about your marriage. The King and Queen said a few words to you, just ignore them. Unless absolutely necessary, don't settle for anyone. Marry a man who you like and who also likes you. You are the county princess, the jewel in the palm of the King and Queen, there are many noble young masters who want to marry you. Don't rush into marrying someone you don't like."

Jingning County Princess nodded and said, "Rest assured, I won't marry someone I don't like. My grandmother also said that marriage is a major life event, telling me not to rush into it and to choose someone I truly like. If I haven't met someone suitable, then I'll wait another two years before choosing a husband."

Meng Jin Yao said: "The Empress Dowager is enlightened. "

Princess Jingning smiled: "Grandmother Empress is the most enlightened. My father and mother are not as enlightened as Grandmother Empress."

Song Xining and Meng Jinyao listened, smiled at each other, and it was no wonder that Ayan was so innocent. As the pampered princess, darkness could never reach her, and no one dared to scheme against her.

At noon, Song Xining and Princess Jingning stayed for lunch. After the meal, the three of them chatted for a while before Song Xining and Princess Jingning left Changxing Hou's mansion.

In the afternoon, Gu Jingxi returned home.

Meng Jinyao told him that her father, Meng Dongyuan, would marry Miss Dong Er in early April.

Gu Jingxi wasn't too surprised, he just asked: "What date in April"

Meng Jinyao replied, "I don't know the specific ranking yet. It was Anning who told me, and she only heard it as gossip. She didn't have a detailed understanding."

Gu Jingxi nodded lightly.

Meng Jinyo suddenly asked, "Husband, what do you think of Shen Guogong's eldest son"

Gu Jingxi heard this and glanced at her blankly, seemingly not understanding why she would ask about an outsider. However, he still answered her question: "Shen Yunzhou is a smart person. Don't look at him, he's only a young man who hasn't reached adulthood yet, and looks harmless. This person has a deep city mansion, but he's not a bad person. Ayao, why would you ask about him"

Meng Jiny Yao casually found an excuse: "Today, An Ning and the others mentioned Prince Shen. Out of curiosity, I asked you."

Gu Jingxi didn't suspect him and didn't think much about it.o looked bewildered, as if she had no idea what they were doing here.Mrs. Gu glanced at them, her voice low and serious: "Are you truly ignorant, or are you feigning ignorance about what has happened"...
