Chapter 41: Gloomy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This carriage looked low-key on the outside, but it was luxurious on the inside.

The Second Prince, Huangfu Lingyao, was so good-looking, so his elder brother, Huangfu He, was not much worse looking.

The Crown Prince was 22 years old this year, and his face was as white as jade. There was a faint sense of authority in him. He was indeed someone who had been the Crown Prince for ten years.

His gaze fell on Huangfu Lingyao. This silly brother had not looked at him since he got on the carriage. Instead, he had been staring at Liu Shimei with a silly expression.

His expression was glaring, and Huangfu He’s tone was not very pleasant either. “Betrothed people should avoid meeting each other. Second Brother, you don’t care about your reputation, but shouldn’t you also consider the reputation of Eldest Miss Liu?”

Liu Shimei raised an eyebrow.

Huangfu Lingyao was hit on the head by these words. It was as if a basin of ice water had been poured on his smiling face, and anger immediately appeared on his face.

However, a child’s temperament was still a child’s temperament. He was extremely angry and only spat out a sentence of protest. “None of your business!”

Huangfu He sighed slightly, as if he was also upset that he had foolishly told Huangfu Lingyao this.

He shook his head slightly and looked at Liu Shimei. “I heard…”

He paused and picked his words before continuing, “I heard about the night before the Lantern Festival and always wanted to ask you, is the rumor true or false?”

“Your Highness, did you come all the way here just to ask about this?” Liu Shimei raised his eyebrows.

Huangfu He did not say anything and just stared at her.

Upon seeing this, Huangfu Lingyao turned his body sideways like a puppy protecting its food. He shielded his wife behind him and blocked the Crown Prince’s gaze. His eyes revealed a fierce light. “Why are you staring at my wife? She’s not your wife!”

Liu Shimei almost could not hold back her laughter!

Huangfu He’s face darkened. He ignored the fool Huangfu Lingyao and asked, “Miss Shimei, I just wanted to ask, do the words you said to me on New Year’s Eve still count?”

Liu Shimei was confused!

What did she say to the Crown Prince on New Year’s Eve?

Oh, she suddenly recalled it. The Consort Selection Banquet was decided on the winter solstice. The date was set to be the 16th of the first month. During the New Year’s Eve banquet, Liu Shimei followed Liu Fuyun into the palace and met Huangfu He in the imperial garden.

She vaguely remembered that Huangfu He had asked, “I can’t make the decision to choose a consort. However, I can choose who I want within the selected candidates. I just want to ask if you’re unwilling?”

At that time, Liu Shimei had replied, “I’ve already put my name up for contention, so I’m naturally willing. Why do you ask, Your Highness?”

Although there were two flowerbeds between the two of them at that time, there was nothing inappropriate about what they said. However, when Liu Shimei recalled this, he could still feel that the two of them were secretly expressing their feelings for each other. As if making an important decision for the rest of their life.

Unfortunately, that Eldest Miss Liu did not live to see the 16th of the first lunar month. She passed away on the night of the 15th of the first lunar month. This body had a new soul!

She could not help but sigh. She thought to herself, ‘You’re still the same Crown Prince on New Year’s Eve, but I’m no longer the same Liu Shimei on New Year’s Eve. What do you want me to do?’

“Lady Shimei…”

She did not say anything, but Huangfu He urged her to reply.

From the intimate way he addressed her, it could be seen that this Crown Prince should have had a lot of affection for the original Liu Shimei. Unfortunately, that Liu Shimei was gone!

She wondered how the Crown Prince would feel if he knew that the girl he liked was gone.

Liu Shimei sighed helplessly, but she could not say that she was no longer the same Liu Shimei. She only said, “What’s the point of Your Highness asking these questions? It’s already an established fact that I’m engaged to King Dun Yu.”

The atmosphere in the carriage instantly turned gloomy.

Liu Shimei was a little absent-minded.. She did not know if this gloominess came from the Crown Prince or from King Dun Yu who was blocking him!
