"I... ... "
Le Zhi lowered her eyes and was at a loss for words. In the past, she was most fond of laughing and making troubles, but now she has to ponder seven points in her head to answer a sentence.
Huo Du picked up the silver spoon and slowly poured a bowl of soup and handed it to her, "If it's because of what happened last night, I apologize, but I won't in the future."
Le Zhi raised his head sharply, only to see his peach blossom eyes full of sincerity, a hint of apology in his eyes, and a look of guilt on his face.
Until many years later, when Le Zhi leaned on his shoulder and admired the moon, recalling this scene, he couldn't help laughing—
This guy is quite trustworthy.
What she didn't know was that what Huo Du was thinking at the moment was—
No matter what purpose she came to him with, it's really not bad to be so calm.
It's worth giving her a quick death.
Taking the soup, Le Zhi showed a smile, blinked again, and said softly, "My Highness and I are husband and wife, I don't blame Your Highness, and I will not be afraid of Your Highness."
Huo Du hooked his lips and smiled even more.
As expected of the stunning, a pair of seductive fox eyes can speak. No man in this world can escape such a beauty trick, right
But he already had a heart like a mirror—
The more beautiful something is, the more untouchable it is.
As for desire, of course he has.
People have five desires, wealth, fame, food, sleep, and sex. Wealth and fame have long been ignored by him, and he has excellent control over food and sleep.
All that's left is this sensuality/desire...
Ah.
What's more difficult
During a lunch, both of them were not very attentive. After putting down the silver chopsticks, Le Zhi was still thinking about whether his answer would satisfy Huo Du.
"full?"
Le Zhi raised her eyes, looked at Huo Du's peach blossom eyes, and nodded with a smile.
The person in front of him glanced at the fish meal on the table and raised his eyebrows: "Then don't fight for food with Huo Xiaoli. Huh?"
Hearing this, Le Zhi was surprised, "Huo...Little lame?"
Snowball, who had been dozing off quietly on Huo Du's lap, suddenly opened his eyes to look at Le Zhi, with round cat eyes, as if he was a little bit puzzled.
Huo Du stretched out his hand and pressed his head, letting him continue to sleep. Then he raised his eyes to look at Le Zhi, as if afraid of disturbing Huo Xiaoxiao again, he lowered his voice and said, "Its name."
Now, Le Zhi was even more puzzled. She has also seen some people with disabilities before. No matter how optimistic they are in front of others, if they accidentally mention their disabilities, they will still feel inferior and speechless.
She always thought that Huo Du's leg disease should be his taboo. However, he didn't care to mention the word lame, and even gave his cat a name like this—
Huo Xiao lame... This name is too...
I don't know why Xiaoxue Tuan is lame
"Because I'm lame, my cat has to have a broken leg too."
Le Zhi's smile froze for a moment, and she raised her eyes in shock before she even had time to adjust her expression.
Looking at each other, she saw Huo Du's lacquer eyes shining brightly, with a playful smile on his face.
Seeing that both of them put down the silver chopsticks, the waiter outside brought in the hot tea after dinner with a wink.
Lezhi quickly picked up the tea cup, and the familiar fragrance floated to his nose. She took a sip, and the elegant taste slipped into her throat with a hint of bitterness, but the aftertaste was sweet.
Thanks to this tea, it gave her a lot of time to suppress the tremor in her heart.
"Prince Concubine, the servants don't know what kind of tea you like to drink, so I prepared this tea for you according to His Highness's preference." The servant bowed and said, "If you are not used to drinking it, the servants will change it immediately."
"Tea is good, you should leave first."
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief, then saluted, and then retreated to the door.
Le Zhi put down the tea cup, looked at Huo Du, and said softly, "Your Highness is joking."
- In response to what he said.
After the initial shock, Le Zhi recalled the concern he showed for Huo Xiaoli, without pretending at all. More importantly, Huo Xiaoli is also very affectionate to him.
The nature of animals is the most real, and if Huo Du had really hurt it, it would never be able to rest on him as comfortably as it is now.
Huo Du didn't say a word, just took the tea cup and finished the tea. Then he slowly pushed the wheelchair to leave the dining room. When the wheelchair came to the door, he sneered, "If you don't like it, don't force it."
Le Zhi immediately reacted. Come to think of it, he already knew the way she frowned when she used night cinnamon for breakfast, and now her behavior is probably fake in his eyes.
No, it should be more than that. She knew in her heart that although Emperor Qi gave her the marriage, Huo Du would not have known that she was the person Huo Xu arranged to be by his side, so her every move should be classified as a poor performance, right
I don't know where the courage came from, she got up in a hurry, "His Royal Highness!"
The person sitting in the white jade wheelchair did not turn around, but just put his right palm on the handle, and his slender fingers tapped irregularly.
"Nothing I don't like. I was just not used to the taste at first, but when I taste it again, it has a different taste. I really think this tea is excellent."
Although he knew he wouldn't believe it, Cola Branch still said it. And these words are indeed true. This night saffron is really different from eating it directly. Drinking it after a meal is very clear to the stomach.
She really likes it.
Besides, the hazy plan in her heart seemed to be getting clearer and clearer... Then she wanted to say all of her attitude towards Huo Xu and Huo Xu's purpose for getting her closer to him.
However, not yet.
Now is not the best time.
"follow me."
Not knowing where Huo Du was going, Le Zhi only responded warmly and quickly followed him.
Until he stepped into the bedroom, Le Zhi thought he wanted to take a lunch break, but Huo Du turned his wheelchair to the mahogany table in the hall. Le Zhi followed his line of sight and looked over—
I don't know when the mahogany table is full of piles. Those things are brand new and luxurious, like a wedding gift
Lezhi guessed what he meant and pushed him to the table.
"Choose a favorite."
Among the dazzling array of gold and silver jewelry, gemstones, agate, and famous books and pictures, there is something out of place—
It was a white jade flute.
Le Zhi picked up the jade flute subconsciously and was stunned.
Her imperial elder sister, talented and beautiful, is best at playing the qin and flute. In the past, when she was free, she liked to sit in the Mufeng Pavilion listening to her sister's flute and dozed off lazily...
Seeing her like this, Huo Du understood, he called out the servants to enter the hall, and told them to throw away all the remaining gifts.
Le Zhi returned to his senses, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "All... lost?"
Huo Du curled his lips, naturally took the jade flute away from her hand, and said calmly, "Naturally. Except for the favorite, everything else is useless."
After he finished speaking, he pushed the wheelchair towards the bed.
Le Zhi was puzzled: How could those precious treasures become useless
She doesn't understand.
She didn't understand Huo Du's words, let alone Huo Du.
When she turned around, Huo Du was already lying lazily on the bed, still holding the book he had flipped through last night. And Huo Xiaocai slept on Huo Du's lap for a long time, when he woke up, he dragged his lame leg back and forth excitedly.
Le Zhi slowly approached the bed, suddenly at a loss, not knowing what to do.
"Want to sleep?" Huo Du looked up at her.
