Chapter 91 Cunning
Perhaps because there were too many people around, Ji Yanqing was very close to Ye Jinshu's ear when he said this.

The warm breath lightly fell on the earlobe, making Ye Jinshu unable to help but reach out and scratch it.

But before her hand touched her ear, it first touched the face of Ji Yanqing who was still beside her.

Ye Jinshu paused, then withdrew his hand as if pretending not to care, then turned his head and looked back.

This glance was exactly what Ji Yanqing wanted, as she met eyes with a cunning man.

It was at this moment that Ji Yanqing curved her eyebrows and smiled like a peach blossom, very charming: "Miss, is it okay?"

Ji Yanqing's voice contained some pleading, but more of it was temptation.

Ye Jinshu was sure that she had never seen this kind of gesture from a man before, but she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

If she had to say it, she seemed to often see the concubines in the harem acting like this in front of the emperor's uncle.

Ye Jinshu always speaks his mind, and this time is no exception.

However, they were not in Anping Palace after all. Although no one noticed them in the busy shop, Ye Jinshu still subconsciously lowered his voice: "Answer me a question first."

"Miss, please tell me."

"Why are you at the palace gate?"

If you pass by there accidentally, you can only say it is a coincidence.

In Ye Jinshu's heart, he actually didn't want it to be a coincidence. He hoped to hear other answers from Ji Yanqing that she wanted to hear more.

And Ji Yanqing did not disappoint her expectations.

"Ever since the princess took away the token that allowed me to enter the palace, I have been waiting outside the palace gate."

Ji Yanqing didn't want to lie to Ye Jinshu, so he blurred the subject and didn't say who was waiting outside the palace gate.

He would indeed wait outside the palace gate, but not forever. Most of the time, he would just stand outside the palace gate in a daze for a while and then leave.

The ones who had actually been guarding outside the palace gate for him were his subordinates. Today, it was his subordinates who heard the palace gate guards discussing that the princess was preparing to leave the palace, and then they passed the news to Ji Yanqing.

It was unexpected that the guards at the palace gate were discussing Ye Jinshu. It was because Ye Jinshu cursed too loudly in the dungeon. The palace was not that big, so it was normal for rumors to spread quickly.

From the time Ye Jinshu left the dungeon to the time she went to the Queen's palace, and finally returned to Anping Palace with the token to dress up, the news that the princess was leaving the palace had spread to every corner of the palace.

The palace has its own entertainment news network that is limited to entertainment news, and it is not known to the masters.

All in all, with the efforts of all parties, Ji Yanqing finally succeeded in waiting for Ye Jinshu outside the palace gate.

When Ye Jinshu heard Ji Yanqing's words, she wanted to be moved, but she couldn't help but think of another question.

"You are guarding outside the palace gate during the day, so when will you write the storybook?"

Ji Yanqing: ...

“When it’s late at night and everyone is asleep, you can focus.”

"Is your eye okay?"

Ji Yanqing no longer had any expectations of Ye Jinshu, but suddenly heard these words that seemed to be caring. It took him a while to realize what Ye Jinshu was talking about.

All the glib words were forgotten for a moment, and the only thing he could say was: "Yeah."

Ye Jinshu looked around and found that Xiao Cui, who had a strong presence just now, was nowhere to be seen. It was as if the heavens were hinting something to her.

Ye Jinshu knew that it was wrong for her to go out with a man given her status.

But when she thought about it carefully, she had constrained herself as the Crown Princess for so many lifetimes, but in the end, she ended up like that.

If she wasn't afraid of losing from the beginning, why was she hesitating here?
She is just Ye Jinshu now, not the Crown Princess.

"Okay, where are we going?"

Ji Yanqing found it hard to believe that Ye Jinshu had accepted his invitation. He asked again uncertainly, "Miss, are you really willing to go with me?"

Ye Jinshu nodded. "Then it's a deal. Miss will accompany me today."

Before Ye Jinshu realized the deeper meaning of this sentence, Ji Yanqing grabbed her fingertips through her sleeve.

Ji Yanqing's hands were not very strong, and her fingertips could only just feel Ji Yanqing's temperature.

Rather than warmth, Ye Jinshu even felt that Ji Yanqing's fingertips were a little hot.

Much hotter than the prince’s hand.

"Miss, your hands are so cold."

Ji Yanqing's words interrupted Ye Jinshu's thoughts. Feeling the warmth through the clothes, Ye Jinshu smiled and said, "My hands are not cold, it's you who are too hot."

"Is it my fault?" Ji Yanqing tilted his head and looked at Ye Jingshu with some confusion.

Ye Jinshu nodded, confirming and affirming: "It's because of you."

Ji Yanqing did not argue, but lowered his head and explained in a low voice: "Yanqing Mengran was too reckless just now. I was afraid that the young lady would throw me away, so I felt a little... hot."

“Why does fear make me hot?”

As Ye Jinshu spoke, she moved closer to Ji Yanqing to observe him carefully. She wanted to know if Ji Yanqing was really as hot as he said.

Maybe, it seems, possibly, there is a little.

"Miss, I would feel shy too."

When hearing Ji Yanqing say the word shy, Ye Jinshu, who had been observing Ji Yanqing's mood openly, suddenly changed his attitude for some reason.

Ji Yanqing was very handsome, but she suddenly didn't dare to look at him.

Fortunately, she was still wearing a veil on her face at this time, which could hide her thoughts.

"You haven't told me where you're taking me yet?"

Ji Yanqing then said, "Actually, there happened to be a lantern festival on the street where I was today, and I wanted to take Miss to see it."

"Oh, the lantern festival." Ye Jinshu and her sisters had gone to the lantern festival several times in her previous life. It was quite fun and there were many little gadgets.

What’s more important is the atmosphere. It looks lively and makes people feel very happy.

But today is not a special day, so there is no need to celebrate it with a lantern festival.

Perhaps seeing Ye Jinshu's confusion, Ji Yanqing continued to explain: "I gave the book I wrote these days to the bookstore owner. He and other shop owners wanted to celebrate for me. Later, word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and the whole street held a lantern festival together."

"Miss, you helped Yan Qing a lot when he was writing, so I dare to ask you to do me a favor today."

Having said that, Ye Jinshu would no longer refuse.

If it was just an ordinary lantern festival, it was entirely possible that Ye Jinshu would not have much interest in it and would just take a look and leave.

But at this time Ji Yanqing deliberately said that this lantern festival was held to celebrate his completion of writing the storybook, which had a different meaning for Ye Jinshu.

After all, the stories written by Ji Yanqing were the ones that Ye Jinshu watched growing up.

She wants to see the ending of the story and the ending of the person.

"Ji Yanqing."

"Miss?"

"I think you're not only smart, you're also cunning."

"…Thank you for the compliment, Miss."
