The driver drove to a farm in the suburbs.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this place seemed quiet and elegant.
The courtyard was covered in trees and flowers. Not far away, there was a clear fish pond and orchard.
Ning Yuan did not expect that Ye Yu would bring her here for dinner. As soon as she got out of the car, joy appeared in her eyes. “The mountains and rivers are so beautiful.”
Ye Yu held Ning Yuan’s hand and led her to the farm.
The boss came out warmly.
Before Ye Yu came, Feng Chen had already greeted the boss.
He was flattered and honored that the Second Prince could dine with them.
The boss was a very polite person. Although he was curious about Ning Yuan’s identity, he did not look at her.
He took them to a single bungalow and pointed at the stairs that extended to the roof. “Go up from here and you’ll reach the glass room.”
Ye Yu nodded. “Serve all the specialties here.”
“Alright, we’ll get ready immediately.”
Ning Yuan went up to the roof first. There was a glass room of more than forty square meters. There was a sofa, TV, dining table, and fresh wild flowers in a vase in the cabinet.
Ye Yu pulled out the chair gentlemanly and waited for Ning Yuan to sit down before he took off his coat and hung it on the rack.
The sky was not completely dark yet. Ning Yuan held her cheek and looked at the person fishing by the pond, a feeling of peace rising in her heart.
Soon, the boss served six dishes.
Ye Yu took a piece of braised fish cooked by the boss’s fish pond, picked out the bones and put them on Ning Yuan’s plate.
He looked up and found her looking at him with a smile.
Ye Yu’s heart skipped a beat and his eyes on her darkened. His Adam’s apple bobbed. “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Ning Yuan had heard before that a man who was willing to pick fish bones for you definitely had you in his heart.
She knew that Ye Yu liked her. She did not know if he loved her, but at this moment, she felt happy.
“I didn’t expect to be served by the Second Prince one day.” When he ate in the palace, the fish bones were chosen by the servants and he did not need to do such a thing himself.
Ye Yu’s lips curled up slightly. “Are you satisfied with just picking a fish bone?”
“It’s not about picking fish bones, but with you around, I feel that the air is sweet.”
Ye Yu coughed softly. “You’re talking nonsense again.”
“I’m not talking nonsense.” Ning Yuan’s long eyelashes fluttered and she suddenly found that the tip of his ears were suspiciously red. She seemed to have discovered a new world. “Why do I find that you’re a little strange?”
He was not shy when he pushed her down, but he would be embarrassed when she praised him occasionally.
“I praised you a lot when I sent you that message. Are you…”
The man put a piece of fish into her mouth. “Don’t talk while eating.”
Ning Yuan chewed the fish in his mouth, a bright smile on her face.
He had drunk some wine. Ning Yuan was pregnant and could not drink, so she only drank a glass of milk.
After dinner, he turned on the old-fashioned gramophone in the glass room.
A retro and charming music sounded.
“A dance?” He stood in front of her and bowed slightly, a standard gentlemanly gesture.
Ning Yuan looked at his hand that was reaching towards her and her heart fluttered.
Putting her hand in his, she was held by him and started to dance with the soft and textured music.
The night gradually darkened. The weather was very good tonight. The moon was full and the stars were bright.
There was only a dim yellow light in the glass room. Under the starry night sky, she was in his arms and she looked up at him.
Their eyes met and their breaths intertwined.
The atmosphere was unbelievably beautiful.
Ning Yuan looked at his deep and cold eyes, tall nose bridge, sexy scarlet lips and was slightly dazed.
Such a handsome and perfect man was really with her and she had his child… It did not seem real when she thought about it.
After the dance, Ning Yuan took out an exquisite box from her bag.
“My gift to you.”
Ye Yu opened the box and narrowed his eyes when he saw the cufflinks inside. “You can’t bear to buy such an expensive thing for me?”
“It’s not expensive at all to you. It’s good that you don’t mind.”
Ye Yu looked up at her. “Let’s not talk about the price. As long as it’s from you, it’s very precious.”
Hearing his words, Ning Yuan’s heart melted.
“You’re quite good at making people happy sometimes.”
Ye Yu’s expression darkened. “I’m not coaxing you.” He took out the cufflinks. “Put it on for me.”
“Okay.”
She stood in front of him, lowered her eyes and put on the cufflinks for him.
He looked down at her, his gaze moving from her long eyelashes, to the tip of her nose, then to her red lips…
After putting it on for him, Ning Yuan looked up at him. “Can I?”
He said nothing and his handsome face approached her. Before she could react, he kissed her.
The faint smell of red wine entered her taste buds. Ning Yuan raised her hands and wrapped them around his neck. Her fingertips touched the short hair at the back of his neck and her heart felt as sweet as honey.
After the kiss, she heard him say softly by her ear, “I’m going abroad in two days. I’ll get Assistant Su to bring your grandmother over to accompany you.”
Ning Yuan lay on his shoulder, her face red and her breathing unstable. “I’m afraid my grandmother won’t come…”
“Whether the old lady comes or not is up to her. I won’t force her.”
Ning Yuan hummed softly.
…
Jiang Yan was an outstanding diplomat. Now that he had been transferred back to the country, he was valued by the King and the royal family.
Mu Sihan invited Jiang Yan and his family to eat in the palace’s banquet hall.
Ye Yu returned to the palace after receiving Mu Sihan’s call.
After Jiang Beier followed Jiang Yan to the palace, she had been looking forward to it.
Knowing that Ye Yu would come to the palace later, she could not stop smiling.
Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Bei’er, who was like a child, and patted her hand lightly. “Bei’er, be reserved.”
“Mommy, I’ve been taught since I was young that if I like someone, I have to express myself boldly. Tell me, do you think His Highness will like the cufflink I bought for him from another shop?”
“Belle has good taste. He will like it.”
The mother and daughter were talking when two tall figures walked in.
Ye Jie and Ye Yu came together.
Jiang Beier’s gaze landed on the handsome and cold Ye Yu.
Walking beside the handsome Crown Prince, he was not inferior at all. The two brothers were dragons among men.
Jiang Beier stood up and greeted Ye Jie and Ye Yu sweetly.
Both of them nodded with indifferent expressions.
Seeing Ye Yu look away after glancing at her, Jiang Beier felt a little disappointed.
After Ye Yu greeted Jiang Yan and Madam Jiang, he sat beside Ye Jie. The moment he raised his hand, Jiang Beier saw a familiar pair of cufflinks.
