The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

At this moment, the spiciness of the hotpot is so delicious that she feels like crying.

"If only there was a jar of wine to go with it..."

"No way." Lu You quickly said, "Absolutely no drinking. The Princess's body hasn't fully recovered yet; you can't touch alcohol."

"I was just saying it casually." Ye Qichi felt a bit disappointed.

"Once you've recovered, I'll definitely prepare some aged liquor for you." Gu Xingchuan promised.

"Then it's settled."

"Agreed."

The three of them were sitting on stone stools, eating to their satisfaction.

If it weren't for...

Xiao Jinxing's sudden appearance.

The moment he appeared,

Lu You hurriedly knelt on the ground in fright.

Eating at the same table as the Princess is a serious breach of rules.

They would only act like this in private. In public, Lu You certainly dared not break the rules.

Xiao Jinxing glanced at Lu You.

Wasn't she just laughing and chatting with Gu Xingchuan a moment ago?! Was his presence so terrifying?!

At this moment, seeing Xiao Jinxing appear, Gu Xingchuan also elegantly put down his chopsticks, then stood up and paid his respects, "Greetings, Prince."

Xiao Jinxing deliberately ignored Gu Xingchuan.

He put on a high and mighty air.

He turned his gaze to Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi ignored Xiao Jinxing.

The people regard food as their prime want.

She needs to fill her stomach first.

"Don't you know the condition of your body? Yet you eat such spicy food?" Xiao Jinxing's tone was reproachful, yet seemed somewhat different than usual.

Usually, he just looks for trouble on purpose.

Today, it seems, there was a hint of concern.

"I'm very aware of my own body, thank you for your concern, Prince," she said indifferently, continuing to eagerly enjoy her hotpot.

Xiao Jinxing could feel Ye Qichi's coldness towards him.

However, Xiao Jinxing wasn't angry.

Even Xiao Wu was surprised.

Thinking about it, the Prince has been feeling guilty towards the Princess these past few days and would naturally be more tolerant.

Perhaps it's not just guilt.

Otherwise...

He had just been furious about the Princess and Gu Xingchuan, but now, he's suddenly come to the Princess's courtyard again.

And then got a cold look from the Princess.

"Is it tasty?" Xiao Jinxing asked.

That question almost made Xiao Wu choke on his own saliva.

The Prince's change towards the Princess is really big.

Even though the Princess shows such disdain, he still faces it shamelessly.

"You don't get any," Ye Qichi responded bluntly.

That was quite a face-slap.

Xiao Jinxing's hands clasped behind his back clenched into fists.

Xiao Wu stood behind him and saw everything clearly.

So, he knew how angry the Prince was at this moment...

"Xiao Wu," Xiao Jinxing suddenly called out.

Xiao Wu promptly responded, "Prince."

"Prepare a set of bowl and chopsticks for me."

"..." Xiao Wu was dumbfounded.

Ye Qichi finally looked up at Xiao Jinxing.

Did this guy not hear what she just said?!

Xiao Jinxing directly ignored Ye Qichi's gaze.

He stylishly flicked his sleeves, then sat down on the stone stool, waiting for Xiao Wu to bring him his bowl and chopsticks.

Xiao Wu paused for a second, then quickly went to fetch the bowl and chopsticks for the Prince.

And promptly placed them before the Prince.

It was the first time he realized that the Prince's skin was thicker than the city walls.

As Xiao Wu placed the bowl and chopsticks, he intentionally said, "The Prince has injuries, so it's best to eat less of spicy food."

"It doesn't matter," Xiao Jinxing said, not concerned.

Ye Qichi really wanted to slap Xiao Jinxing in the face.

If it weren't for her not wanting to harm that face.

She would have really done it.

"The Princess may not know, but the Prince has been punished with twenty heavy lashes for defying the Emperor's orders, and now his back is full of wounds," Xiao Wu spoke up again.

He deliberately said it for Ye Qichi to hear.

Ye Qichi acted as if she hadn't heard it.

"At that time, the Prince, in order to return to the Princess, defied the Emperor's decree..."

"Xiao Wu, don't you think you're noisy?" Ye Qichi directly interrupted.

"..." He was just trying to gain some ground for his Prince.

If not for his interjection, she would have run off with Gu Xingchuan.

Just now, as they entered the courtyard and saw the Princess and Gu Xingchuan dining together, laughing so happily... he even thought of names for the children of the Princess and Gu Xingchuan.

"Xiao Wu, you may leave," Xiao Jinxing ordered.

"Yes." Xiao Wu stood straight and took a few steps back.

Xiao Jinxing picked up the chopsticks and started eating his hotpot.

He expected it to be very spicy and unpleasant, but the taste was, as always, good.

Ye Qichi's cooking skills have never disappointed anyone.

After trying a mouthful, Xiao Jinxing began to eat very comfortably.
