Chapter 98 I thought he liked her
Thinking about how she would be wearing such elaborate clothes and a heavy crown again, she sighed softly.
Taking a breath, he turned to Su Fengjun and said.
"We should go to that flower bridge, otherwise they'll send people looking for us again later."
He nodded. There was a pavilion next to the flower bridge, and they had prepared fine clothes for them inside.
A golden and jade crown—basically, the more luxurious the better.
In this attic, she encountered her disgusting older sister and Gongshu Liang again.
Despite what happened this morning, Zhong Liyu remained completely unfazed.
It was as if nothing had happened.
"Little sister, I started missing you as soon as we parted this morning."
"Don't worry about me, I'm afraid I'll die young." With no one around, he didn't bother with any more polite formalities.
She simply led Su Fengjun into the room on her own.
Zhong Liyu, however, was very bold and suddenly grabbed Su Fengjun's hand.
Su Fengjun also looked resentful and disgusted. How dare she touch his hand!
Zhong Liyu rubbed two fingers on his meridians to feel them.
Although it appears superficial, the spiritual sea is full; that Zi Sangqi... is truly useless!
"Zhong Liyu, loosen your grip on my fox claws, don't go too far!"
Zhongli Yueluo slapped their hands away, looking disgusted.
"Why is my sister being so fierce? I just heard that Feng Shaojun seems to have been injured, and I wanted to see if it was serious so that our imperial court could treat him accordingly."
She had a smile on her face, and you couldn't see any flaws in her demeanor.
She just gave her a quick glare and strode into the room.
Then she circled around Su Fengjun, as if afraid that he had fallen victim to her fox magic in that instant.
"Are you feeling unwell?" The tone was anxious.
Su Fengjun shook his head, looked at his hand that Zhong Liyu had grabbed, and felt disgusted.
She washed herself repeatedly in the basin of water next to her.
After Zhongli Yueluo probed the area, she found no trace of fox magic and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then they started changing clothes. They didn't need to change the clothes underneath; they just needed to put on the large, luxurious robes.
Su Fengjun awkwardly reached out his hand, and Zhongli Yueluo's hand rested on his.
As she stepped outside, Gongshu Liang, though disliking her, still had a flicker of interest in her eyes when she came out dressed in her finest attire.
The flower bridge is entwined with vines that almost never wither.
A tall moon lantern hangs behind it, somewhat reminiscent of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting.
They stood at opposite ends of the bridge, one at one end and the other at the other, slowly walking to meet in the middle.
They will hang a prayer plaque together, also praying for peace and tranquility in the world.
The common people below knelt down in submission, and when they looked up, they saw that it was actually the young lord of the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan.
This means that their next Demon Lord is more inclined to befriend the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan.
After the prayer ended, Zhongli Yueluo breathed a sigh of relief, changed her clothes, and found that she was indeed much more comfortable in casual clothes.
Su Fengjun walked beside him, wanting to speak but unable to open her mouth.
Zhongli Yueluo looked back at him several times, but he hesitated to speak.
"Feng Jun, what's wrong?" She stopped and waited for him to catch up.
Su Fengjun touched the two marriage tokens hanging from his waist, which they had agreed to hang on the bridge together.
But that was a prayer for all the people, not for the two of them.
Zhongli Yueluo seemed to understand his meaning and reached out her hand. Su Fengjun placed his hand on hers with some confusion.
By this time, there were already many people on the flower bridge, and they were all imitating Zhongli Yueluo and the others in praying for blessings, and finally hung up their signs.
Zhongli Yueluo and Su Fengjun walked to the middle of the bridge: "Fengjun, what exactly does your sign say?"
I thought to myself, "He can't really be that unromantic, he only wrote four words, can he?"
His ears turned red, and he didn't reply, but instead tied their marriage cards in a knot.
It's a binding spell that can't be broken by others.
He quickly tied the tags to the pile and stammered, "No, it's nothing."
The two walked down the street again, and he quietly followed behind her, keeping a step's distance.
His gaze remained fixed on her, his heart filled with a thousand words, yet he didn't know where to begin.
When Zhongli Yueluo turned around, he met her bright eyes and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly looked away.
Afraid that she would see through his thoughts, at that moment, he felt that her eyes held the peace and tranquility they both desired.
She took his hand: "Feng Jun, let's go back."
His body stiffened slightly, and a hint of unease flashed across his face, but he did not pull away from her hand, letting her hold him.
A faint smile unconsciously appeared on his lips: "Alright, Princess, please walk slowly."
They soon returned to Yuanyue Pavilion, where Taohong was standing at the entrance.
Several other servants, whose names they did not know, bowed to them, saying, "Princess, Prince Consort Feng."
"Get out of here, and don't bother us unless it's important," she said, waving her hand.
Zhongli Yueluo was about to go into her room when Su Fengjun stopped at the door, and she pulled him inside.
He paused, hesitant for a moment, but she eventually pulled him inside, his ears turning red.
He whispered, "Princess, this is inappropriate."
"Is there something wrong? Or do you still think Fengling Academy is safer? Then wait for me to change my clothes."
She left him standing at the door while she rummaged through the clothes in the closet.
A faint, pleasant fragrance wafted into his nose, but he kept his eyes down and didn't look around.
We just waited for her to change her clothes.
She was wearing a grapefruit-red shirt, which suited her ruby hairpin even better.
She pushed him out the door, closed the door behind him, and headed to Fengling Academy.
Strangely, Su Fengling still hasn't returned, and the ghost guards in their courtyard haven't made any move either.
Is he up to something big behind her back?
Seeing Zhongli Yueluo looking around, probably searching for Su Fengling, he walked to the table in the courtyard, sat down, and waved his hand, signaling that hot tea had been prepared.
Zhongli Yueluo wanted to ask, but thinking it might not be appropriate, he replied, "My younger brother might not be back for a while."
She paused, wondering if she had made it too obvious.
She took a sip of tea to cover her embarrassment.
After a moment of silence, Su Fengjun spoke first.
“Princess, the one who attacked us on the street today was probably from the Zisang clan.”
"Ah, oh." She thought he was going to say something, but it turned out he was talking about serious business.
"Although there was no movement today, I guess they were waiting for an opportunity, but they saw that I was unharmed."
"They might investigate secretly. I just left the princess alone in the room, which was dangerous, so..."
"Is that why you invited me to Fengling Academy?"
"Correct."
"I thought it was because you liked me and couldn't help yourself," she teased him.
Although that was part of the reason, he wouldn't admit it. His expression was indifferent, and he just stared at the teacup.
"So, shall I stay at Fengling Academy tonight?"
"it is good."
She yawned and prepared to walk towards Su Fengjun's room, but he stopped her, seemingly wanting to say something.
