On the way back, Morong Gan automatically distanced himself from Bai Qianfan.
He regretted agreeing to Morong Ze that idiot to act out this scene. He really wanted to smash himself with a rock.
Bai Qianfan didn't know what was the purpose of his sudden rage, she only thought that it was because of her capricious mood, and carefully hid to the side to secretly observe him.
At this time, the Marquis' Prince Chu was the first time she met him. It was very dignified with a cold aura deep down in his bones. There was also a lofty noble aura and cold arrogance.
Sensing that she was looking at him, Morong Gan's gaze turned and locked gazes with her. For no particular reason, Bai Qianfan felt a burst of panic, there were too many things in that gaze that she did not understand, it was like a ball of fire, or the sky full of snow. She was scared, her lips moved, but she did not know what to say.
She was afraid, her eyes wide as a deer's, her pink lips trembling.
After a long while, his gaze slowly moved down, and landed on her lips. A light flashed in her dark eyes, and Bai Qianfan only felt her chest tighten as he grabbed hold of her.
Bai Qianfan wanted to struggle, but she didn't have the strength, as though he had sucked her primordial spirit away, causing her head to be empty, only her heart was beating crazily in her chest. All of her consciousness faded away as darkness descended and smoke filled the air, threatening to overwhelm her.
Just as she was about to suffocate, Morong Gan suddenly released her and shouted in a low voice, "Are you an idiot?
Without waiting for her to regain her senses, he pulled her into his embrace again, and gently patted her back with his large hands. At this moment, the cold man disappeared, and in his place was the familiar warm embrace, the Morong Gan who doted on her.
She was truly weak and in great pain. She leaned against his chest and panted for breath. Only after she calmed down did she sit up straight. Her umbrella had fallen to the ground at an unknown time, its sharp end sticking out through the curtain.
She did not dare raise her head as she stared at the umbrella on the ground. Morong Gan still leaned back against the wall and did not say a word.
The sedan chair swayed back and forth, the sound of the sedan chair's footsteps were uniform, they reached Jin Sheng Street's market, it was a little chaotic outside, Bai Qianfan finally opened her mouth, and said softly: "I did not do anything wrong, why is the prince punishing me?"
Morong Gan's heart became gloomy, this fool really treated kissing as a punishment, he went silent for a moment before replying, "I am punishing myself."
Bai Qianfan: "Eh?" SShe raised his head and touched his dark eyes. He immediately lowered his head. She felt that with the current situation, it would be better not to continue with this topic. Prince Chu was temperamental, and if she did not set a time, she would provoke him again, causing her to suffer.
She tried her best to relax, bent down and picked up the umbrella, holding it in her arms, and said in a very casual manner, "The Prince is too busy drinking and didn't eat much, let Big Sister Qi Hong cook supper for you when you go back."
Morong Gan's heart skipped a beat. Was the little girl concerned about him?
He also didn't want to be too stiff, otherwise, it would be hard to meet her again in a few days. Since she had started a conversation, he took the opportunity to descend the slope and said, "Hmm, do you still want to eat?"
"I'm full," she said, turning her head to smile at him, revealing a mouthful of small, waxy teeth. "I want to go back and rest."
He leaned over and looked at her mouth with a serious expression, as if he despised her, "Indeed, I ate a lot. I couldn't eat any more. The leaves have stuck to my teeth."
Bai Qianfan's face reddened, and she quickly covered her face with her hands, sticking her tongue out and licking her teeth once as she said in a muffled voice, "No, I didn't."
Morong Gan smiled and leaned back, only then did Bai Qianfan know that she had been tricked, she angrily swung her fist at him. Morong Gan held her hand and frowned, "Why is it so cold, why is it that the servant girl did not prepare a hand furnace for you?"
"It's alright, I won't be able to use it once I get used to it."
Morong Gan placed the umbrella by the side of the circle, and held both her hands together in front of her palm, "If you can't throw it, you can't. There's a person waiting on the side, what's there to be afraid of?"
"When Prince and I came out today, we didn't bring anyone with us."
"Can I give it to you?"
"With your highness here, why do you need a stove? Your highness' hands are so warm." As he spoke, he rubbed his face against his hand as if he was trying to curry favor with him.
Morong Gan really did not know what to say. She was not used to being intimate with her husband, but every now and then, she would play around with him.
The palanquin entered the Palace without stopping and went all the way to the second gate. Hao Pingguan had long been waiting there.
Morong Gan snorted, he left the palanquin and turned to bring Bai Qianfan out. Bai Qianfan had always kept a close eye on her things, and as she walked out, he held the umbrella tightly in her arms. When she saw Hao Pingguan, he pinched the umbrella under her arm and bowed to him: "Head Steward, this little one has returned."
In front of Morong Gan, Hao Pingguan was extremely terrified as he cried out, "Princess, you're trying to kill me!"
Bai Qianfan curled her lips, and muttered, "Not interesting." Then, he bowed to Morong Gan, "Your Highness, this humble one will be going back now."
A smile was plastered on Morong Gan's lips. He really was a child, he didn't take off his clothes and continued acting.
"It's dark, I'll drive you there."
"No need, no need. This humble one is not afraid of treading on the dark path. I can go back myself. Your highness, please wait a moment. This lowly one will be leaving now." With that, she fell forward, turned around, and left.
Hao Pingguan immediately ordered, "Hurry up and hold up the light for Princess Hua-Yang."
Just as a servant girl carrying a lantern was about to give chase, Morong Gan waved his hand and shouted, "Don't follow them, this king will go take a look."
Since the prince had spoken, the crowd could only stand there and watch helplessly as the two princes walked through the darkness.
Bai Qianfan's eyes were good, and she was also familiar with the environment, even though it was pitch black, it did not affect her speed at all. Suddenly, her ears twitched, her eyes squinted, and grabbed onto her umbrella.
Bai Qianfan naturally could not let her hit him, and did not make a sound either. She only extended her hand to grab the umbrella, but Bai Qianfan's strength was not as strong as her. In the blink of an eye, the umbrella was gone, and she did not panic.
Morong Gan laughed, "How did you know it was me?"
"Of course I know. Even if the prince were to turn into ashes, I would still recognize him."
Morong Gan, "..." Why did those words sound so awkward?
However, he was still happy that she was able to recognize him. The little girl was not bad, she was very alert, and she did not panic in the face of danger.
He held her hand. Glimmers danced in the darkness of the night. "Wife, your husband will send you back."
