Young master Wei could only look at the minister in front of him. "Why is he still alive? Then whose corpse is that?", his plan is already ruined. Those useless assassins from jianghu couldn't even do their job properly!
Long Jie glanced at the pale face of the prefect. The so called perfect plan of the young master Wei is already in his grasp.
2 weeks ago~
"There is someone following us. Don't struggle", Long Jie whispered to her ear. His lips touched her ear a bit as he talks.
Li Xi Rui glanced at their intertwined hands. She doesn't know whether to get mad or just let him hold her. Now they're in the tea pavilion sitting near the balcony. If someone just glanced up, they could see the intimate position Long Jie and she currently are.
It has been several days since their agreement. These few days, Long Jie had planned several traps for their invisible enemy.
"Xi Rui, did your father tell you anything about the treasure Li clan's possessed?", Long Jie took her hand and caressed them. Today they are going to act out a play for the spy's entertainment.
Acting coquettishly, Li Xi Rui almost threw up, "What treasure? Is it perhaps the one in father's study?". She laid the first trap. She is trying to concentrate on their task but Long Jie's intimate actions distract her. She knew this is just an act but this second prince really is a good actor. Batting her eyelashes, she stared at Long Jie as the latter took her hand and put it against his cheek. Her breath hitched!
"Does this prince's face satisfy miss Li? This prince doesn't mind to be stared at if it's Xi Rui", he uttered the sentence in a low voice. That voice send shivers down to her toes. Her eyes are wide open. 'He could join the opera!', is what Li Xi Rui thought.
Affected by the sweet mood around her, she caressed the smooth cheek of the second prince, "En, Jie is the most handsome~". 'It is just an act anyway', she reasoned.
"Does Jie know what treasure is that?", Li Xi Rui change the topic to the orb. That is what they come here for.
Kissing the long slender fingers, Long Jie said, "En, it's a spiritual item".
Couldn't take all the teasing anymore, Li Xi Rui act shocked and pull her hand away, "What? Why would my family have something so valuable? Maybe Jie is mistaken?". She lifted up her teacup and brought it to her lips.
Not allowing the lady in front of him to escape, he moved his face closer to hers. "But of course that is just a rumor. After all, no one had seen it before", he catches her teacup between his lips and sipped the content.
Li Xi Rui could just stare. 'Isn't this too much? It's too realistic!', Li Xi Rui could see the man in front of her could do just as well in the red light district.
"That maybe so", she move away acting shy. 'Does the spy really want to see them tumble between the sheets before he is satisfied with the information he got? The treasure is in the study, now go and steal it!', she is having a hard time.
But as if by que, Xiao Xi arrived just in time to save her miss, "Miss, second prince, the manager send some refr..esh....ment...". Xiao Xi nearly dropped the tray. The second prince and her miss. They are kissing! The back of the second prince is shielding Li Xi Rui and from behind, they seems like they're kissing.
'They are already at this stage? But, when exactly had they begun the relationship? Isn't this too fast?!', Xiao Xi panicked. She couldn't just hit the prince for eating her miss's tofu. Her miss doesn't even look like she hated it. With red face, Xiao Xi excused herself and left the room.
Pushing Long Jie's shoulder, Li Xi Rui saw her chance to escape, "Xiao Xi is here. Please behave second prince. It's inappropriate", as she acted shy. This is the extend of her acting ability, she couldn't go on anymore.
This time Long Jie let her go. He still is not satisfied but he couldn't just take her right there. Chuckling, he moved away and said, "Let's get you home. Left prime minister would be worried". 'The spy got the false information already and some free dog food. Too bad I could just eat some tofu's skin', he thought.
From that day onward, there is a new rumor in the capital, 'SECOND PRINCE AND MISS LI SPENT TIME FROM DAY TO NIGHT EVERYDAY! THEY SEEMS TO BE GLUED TO EACH OTHER'S SIDE!'. Along the way, Long jie managed to eat Li Xi Rui's tofu.
Holding hands together in the street, brushing her hair where the crowd could watch, buying her gifts and caressing her head. The people in the capital are now too full with dog foods!
