Xiao Juan said expressionlessly.

Yu Niaoniao looked at him bitterly.

“As a man, you’re neither greedy for wealth nor good wine. If you’re not even greedy for beauty, then what’s the point of living?”

Xiao Juan looked at her covered in gauze and moved his lips, wanting her to understand that her current appearance was completely unrelated to beauty, but in the end, he held back and said nothing.

Forget it. As long as she was happy.

Yu Niaoniao asked, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Xiao Juan said, “You’re right. I completely agree.”

Yu Niaoniao laughed and looked like she was in a good mood.

“I appreciate your apology, but that’s not enough. You have to correct your mistake.”

Xiao Juan asked humbly, “What do you want me to do?”

Yu Niaoniao raised her claws wrapped in gauze and gently tapped Xiao Juan’s lips. Then, she tapped her lips and asked.

“That’s it, understand?”

Xiao Juan followed her movements and looked at her lips.

Because she was injured, her lips were pink and she looked a little pale.

But he couldn’t look away.

Of course, he understood what she meant. Although he was a little nervous, he was unwilling to give up this great opportunity.

He obeyed the wishes in his heart and slowly leaned over.

Yu Niaoniao looked at his approaching handsome face and her heart involuntarily beat faster.

Although she appeared so proactive, it was actually her first time. She was very nervous.

When their lips touched, they held their breaths in unison.

Yu Niaoniao’s eyes widened as she looked at the man in front of her without blinking.

Xiao Juan was also looking at her.

This was the first time he had looked at her so closely. Now he could even see how many eyelashes there were on her eyelids.

Their breaths intertwined, and the ambiguous temperature quickly rose.

Yu Niaoniao’s heart beat like a drum.

Just as she was about to close her eyes and prepare to make further contact, Xiao Juan suddenly retreated.

The touch of his lips disappeared.

Yu Niaoniao looked at him in confusion. “What’s wrong?”

Xiao Juan was even more puzzled. “What do you mean?” Yu Niaoniao was stunned.

Could it be that he felt that kissing was just their lips touching?

From the looks of it, that really seemed to be what he was thinking!

Yu Niaoniao did not know what to say for a moment.

Xiao Juan asked again, “Is there a problem?”

He had never kissed anyone before and had no experience in this area, but looking at Niaoniao, it was as if he had done something wrong just now. This made him very uneasy.

Could it be that Niaoniao despised him?

Yu Niaoniao sighed in resignation. “It’s fine. Go to sleep.”

No matter how thick-skinned she was, she could not discuss something like kissing.

Xiao Juan watched her close her eyes, but he could not fall asleep.

He secretly regretted it. If he had known earlier, he would have done his homework in advance. Now, Niaoniao already knew that he was a fool who did not even know how to kiss.

His image as a man was ruined.

When the sun was about to set, Lo Pingsha sent over a wooden wheelchair.

This wheelchair was specially made for Yu Niaoniao. Chun Feng had specially sewn a soft cushion and placed it on the chair.

Xiao Juan picked Niaoniao up and placed her in the chair. Be it size or height, it suited her very well.

She touched the wooden handle and smiled. “This wheelchair is very good. I like it very much. Little Lo, thank you!”

Lo Pingsha was delighted. “I’m glad you like it.”

Xiao Juan said, “It’s almost time. Let’s go.”

Yu Niaoniao nodded. “Yes!”

Xiao Juan pushed the wheelchair out. When he reached the door, the wheelchair was stopped by a high threshold.

Lo Pingsha, Chun Feng, and Ye Yu were about to step forward to help when they saw Xiao Juan grab the wheels on both sides of the wheelchair and carry Yu Niaoniao with it.

After crossing the threshold, Xiao Juan placed the wheelchair steadily on the ground.

Yu Niaoniao wanted to give him a thumbs up, but because her claws were wrapped in gauze, she could only give him a fist.

“You’re awesome!”

Xiao Juan smiled gently.

It was not until this moment that the depression from the kiss completely dissipated from his heart.

When they arrived at the attic where the banquet was held, there were already many people sitting there.

As the owner, Wang Jianan had naturally arrived early. He was talking to Wei Liao.

Seeing Duke Lang arrive, everyone went forward to greet him.

Wang Jianan personally led Duke Lang and his wife to the master seat.

The guests saw Duke Lang pushing a wheelchair. The woman sitting in the wheelchair was covered in gauze, only revealing her eyes, nose, and mouth. She looked quite scary.

They had long heard that the Princess Consort of Lang County was injured, but they did not expect her injuries to be so serious.

From the looks of it, the Princess Consort of Lang County must have been disfigured.

Men liked beautiful women, and Duke Lang was definitely no exception. Even if he did not divorce the Princess Consort, he would definitely not dote on her in the future.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Yu Niaoniao with sympathy.

Yu Niaoniao did not know what others were thinking at all. As soon as she sat down, she asked impatiently.

“What delicious food would there be tonight?”

Wang Jianan was very grateful to the Princess Consort who had saved his grandson.

He read the menu of the banquet from beginning to end and finished.

“That’s all for the time being. If there’s anything else you want to eat, just tell me. I’ll get someone to prepare it.”

Yu Niaoniao was very content. “That’s enough.”

The maidservants filed in with food and wine.

Yu Niaoniao watched as the delicacies on the table increased and was extremely touched. Tears flowed down the corners of her mouth.

Wang Jianan raised his glass and said loudly.

“For so many years, Princess Ni Yang has been like an invisible mountain, pressing down on us until we can barely breathe. Now that this mountain has finally disappeared, be it us or the commoners, we’re all happy about this. All of this is thanks to Duke Lang and the Princess Consort. Let’s toast them! ” The guests stood up and looked at Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoniao.

“Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you, Princess Consort!”

Yu Niaoniao’s hands were wrapped in gauze, so she definitely could not raise her glass. She could only look at Xiao Juan eagerly, hoping that he could feed her a sip of wine.

Xiao Juan coldly rejected her request.

“You’re injured. You can’t drink while you’re still taking medicine.” Then, he picked up his glass and clinked it with everyone’s.

Everyone raised their heads and drained their glasses.

Xiao Juan put down his empty wine glass, picked up a piece of chicken, and fed it to Niaoniao.

Yu Niaoniao immediately forgot about the bitterness of not being able to drink and ate the chicken happily.

After she finished the chicken, Xiao Juan picked up a piece of vegetable for her.

Yu Niaoniao ate the vegetables in one bite.

Then, Xiao Juan picked up another piece of yam for her.

Yu Niaoniao ate the yam and said at the same time,”l want that venison..”
