Ye Yu stood frozen, remaining unmoved for an entire 5 seconds.
Within the 5 seconds, countless thoughts had flitted across her mind.
From “who am I?” “where am I?” “what am I doing?” to “how could he possibly remember me?” “how did he recognize me?” and “when was I exposed?”…
Until the system couldn’t help but remind her, “My host, Ye Residence’s princess was older than Xuan Yi by two years.”
Ye Yu then reacted.
As it turned out, her feelings were just one-sided and she was just scaring herself.
Thankfully, the two fans covered her face, so Xuan Yi didn’t see her shocked and changing expression.
Ye Yu hesitated before saying, “Your majesty.”
“…”
The chilly eyes landed on the fans and paused.
After a few moments, a strange feeling flashed by in the eyes.
Xuan Yi couldn’t help but mock himself in his heart once he snapped out of his trance.
… he was really going insane.
Otherwise, why did he feel like Princess Ye’s tone was like…that woman for a moment?
Even in his dream, he hadn’t heard that person calling him that with this tone.
Once he snapped out of his trance, Xuan Yi glanced coldly at the fan, but his voice was still gentle, “There’s still a long distance to my palace, so why don’t you get into the sedan chair with me?”
“…”
Ye Yu dropped her arm down from Ye Yunsheng and then picked the hem of her dress, softly answering.
“You can place the fans away.”
Xuan Yi opened his mouth and there was a faint smile in his pleasant voice.
The palace maids who were holding the fans didn’t dare to neglect the order, hurriedly answering. They placed the fans away and bowed, walking to the back.
At this moment, Xuan Yi glanced gently at the woman clad in red wedding dress.
What a pity that the show was for nothing.
The moment the fans were placed away, before their gazes met, Ye Yu had looked down.
After he was stunned momentarily, he smiled and asked, “How come you won’t look at me? You don’t like me?”
“…”
Because the one who likes you had already died. I’m the fake one, so I’m scared that you may see through me.
While saying this in her heart, Ye Yu kept her head down and said, “I’m shy.”
Xuan Yi was speechless.
Ye Yunsheng was dumbstruck.
——
Did he leave the devil city too long that he had a misunderstanding of what the word “shy” meant?
Xuan Yi’s gaze slightly flickered and he glanced at Ye Yu who refused to look at him meaningfully.
After this silent and awkward moment, Xuan Yi curled his lips up.
He turned around and his arms naturally reached over and held Ye Yu’s waist.
“Let’s go?”
He looked down and laughed, searching for the tip of the woman’s ears. “…Sister Ye Yu?”
He said with deep feelings.
Ye Yu couldn’t help but “cooperate” and shiver.
Her reaction naturally couldn’t escape Xuan Yi’s eyes.
He glanced at Ye Yu in detail as if fiery flame had appeared in his sealed dark eyes, making him half-close his eyes.
He pressed against her and asked, “Sister Ye Yu, are you afraid of me?”
——
This indescribable familiar feeling… was really a courageous thought.
“Impossible. I’m just a little nervous.”
After a few moments of silence, Ye Yu vaguely answered and headed for the sedan chair.
She increased the distance between them by pulling away.
The system murmured softly in her ears, “My host, your acting skills are not good…You can’t avoid him right now. You need to face him directly in order to prevent him from being suspicious.”
“Yeah, let me, someone who isn’t mentally prepared yet, face the situation…if you can do it, you can go ahead.”
