72 Love Cookie

No matter how Yang Xianrong, Ji Wenjing, and Wan Jiatong begged, they could not change Duke Lang’s decision.

The three of them were forcefully sent home by the Eagle Guards.

After today’s incident, they would probably not be seen in the noble ladies’ social circle for a long time.

The teahouse manager rushed over and realized that the matter had been resolved.

However, he still held his breath and bowed to Duke Lang with trembling hands.

“I didn’t know that Your Highness was coming. Please forgive me for not welcoming you.”

Xiao Juan did not even look at the shopkeeper as he said to Yu Niaoniao.

“Where are you going next? I’ll send someone to take you there.”

Yu Niaoniao had two missions this time. One was to see Shen Junzhi at the teahouse, and the other was to deliver food to Duke Lang.

The first task had been accomplished. Now it was time for the second.

“There’s no hurry. I have something for you.”

She called Dang Gui over and took the food box from her before handing it to Xiao Juan.

“These are little cookies I made myself. I added some edible base to it. It has the effect of neutralizing stomach acid.

If you’re hungry or have a stomachache, you can grab some biscuits to eat.”

With that, she opened the food box, revealing the small biscuits inside.

Each cookie was in the shape of a heart.

Xiao Juan looked down at her. “How did you know that I have gastric problems?”

Yu Niaoniao replied obediently, “Granny Xiuyan told me.”

Xiao Juan understood. No wonder she gave him mutton soup last time. That soup also had the effect of nourishing his stomach.

Yu Niaoniao looked at him expectantly.

“Would you like to try a piece?”

It was well known that Duke Lang never ate outside.

The surrounding Eagle Guards could not help but look at the box of small biscuits. They felt a little regretful.

The biscuits looked quite delicious. Unfortunately, Prince Lang wouldn’t eat it.

However, in the next moment, they saw Duke Lang extend his right hand and pinch a small biscuit with his well-defined fingers. He brought it to his mouth and gently bit it.

The heart-shaped cookie bounced slightly upward and made a cracking sound.

Xiao Juan ignored the surprised gazes of the surrounding people and slowly swallowed the biscuit.

“It tastes okay.”

The texture was fragrant and crispy, and a little sweet. Fortunately, it was not greasy.

Yu Niaoniao pursed her lips and smiled, her face filled with embarrassment.

“These cookies represent my love for you, Your Highness. Every cookie you eat is equivalent to eating one of my hearts.”

Xiao Juan was speechless.

She was good at everything but being coquettish.

Didn’t she see that the surrounding Eagle Guards’ ears were almost sticking up to the sky?

Later on, there would definitely be many rumors in the Justice Department. The title would probably be-

Shocking! The future princess consort actually confessed her love to Duke Lang in public, but his reaction was…

Xiao Juan ate the remaining half of the biscuit and was already very calm.

He thought she just liked to wheedle and should be used to it.’

Yu Niaoniao handed the food box to Xiao Juan.

The two missions on this trip were successfully completed!

“I’m taking Yu Pingping home. I’ll see you another day.”

Yu Niaoniao waved her claws at the man, then helped Yu Fan up and called Dang Gui. The three of them walked out.

Xiao Juan asked someone to arrange a carriage to send the three of them back.

In a private room on the second floor of the tea shop, Shen Junzhi stood by the window and watched the Eagle Guards leave with a cold expression.

The teahouse manager stood behind him and spoke respectfully.

“The Eagle Guards came suddenly this time. Fortunately, they didn’t search the teahouse wantonly. The people we hid here shouldn’t have been discovered.”

Shen Junzhi said calmly, “Move everyone away. In the future, this will just be an ordinary tea shop.”

“Yes, Master.”
