"If I say no, then no!"

Lin Jie slapped his palm onto the white paper which was just half finished written by Shen Qinghan, causing him to pause for a moment as he frowned in displeasure.

"Alright, drink the medicine!"

Lin Jie pushed the medicine bowl in front of Shen Qinghan.

"Nope."

Shen Qinghan didn't even raise his head.

"Oh?" "Why?"

Lin Jie bent down, and stared fixedly at Shen Qinghan, then suddenly grinned craftily: "Could it be because you're afraid of hardships?"

Shen Qinghan's expression did not change, and said: "Since I'm fine, why would I drink the medicine?"

"Arguably, you're obviously afraid of suffering!"

"Hmph!" Lin Jie snorted then laughed, sweeping a glance of Shen Qinghan with the corner of his eyes, and said, "I really never thought that a dignified crown prince like you would actually be afraid of hardships. If this news were to spread, who knows how many people's teeth you will laugh off.

Hearing that, Shen Qinghan's movements paused, the veins on his forehead couldn't help but bulge out.

"Do you want some? If you don't, I will go out and spread the news that Crown Prince is the most afraid of drinking medicine, huh? "

With that, Lin Jie made a gesture to leave.

"I'll drink!"

Shen Qinghan could no longer hold it in. With a sullen face, he replied in a low voice.

Lin Jie looked at the current Shen Qinghan like an abandoned wife with a face full of grief.

As expected, Shen Qinghan's only weakness was that he was afraid of bugs and drinking medicine!

Lin Jie suddenly felt an indescribable excitement.

Seeing Shen Qinghan's reluctant and helpless look, Lin Jie actually thought that Shen Qinghan was somewhat adorable in his heart.

But very quickly, Lin Jie hurriedly cast this absurd idea aside.

"Your Highness, please enjoy."

Lin Jie smiled mischievously as he brought the medicine in both hands.

Shen Qinghan's face was gloomy, taking the medicine bowl, his deep eyes swept across the black medicine, following that, his face was expressionless, and he opened his mouth to drink the entire medicine.

As Lin Jie looked over, he clearly saw Shen Qinghan's brows tightened, and his brows knitted into a huge square.

Last time when Lin Jie fed Shen Qinghan pastries that were filled with chilies, he was able to keep a straight face, but this time, Shen Qinghan actually frowned. It was obvious how much he hated drinking medicine.

"Open your mouth."

Lin Jie looked at Shen Qinghan and said.

"What for?"

Shen Qinghan said coldly.

"What's with all the nonsense? If this young master asks you to open your mouth, you can do it."

Lin Jie frowned.

"What did you say?"

Shen Qinghan slowly straightened his face, his expression filled with seriousness and dignity. But before he even finished speaking, Lin Jie suddenly stuck a hand into his mouth with a movement so fast that Shen Qinghan was somewhat unable to react.

"Yes, it's done."

Lin Jie clapped his hands, "As the saying goes, good medicine is hard to come by ~"

Just as Shen Qinghan was about to explode in anger, suddenly, a faint sweet taste slowly spread out from his mouth.

Lin Jie threw another piece of candy into his mouth and laughed: "The suffering is worth it."

Shen Qinghan's pupils contracted severely. He did not say anything, nor did he spit out the sugar in his mouth. He lowered his head and picked up the brush once again.

"Hmm?"

Seeing that no one responded after a long time, Lin Jie was stunned. Blinking his eyes in confusion, he looked at Shen Qinghan.

Strange, he said such profound words, shouldn't Shen Qinghan praise him?

Thus, Lin Jie kept waiting for Shen Qinghan to praise him.

Afterwards, Shen Qinghan didn't even raise his head to look at Lin Jie, let alone praise him.

Lin Jie's brows fiercely jumped, he raised his head and looked at the dark sky, suddenly stood up and walked out.

At this time, Shen Qinghan finally stopped moving, he raised his head and looked at the direction Lin Jie left in, the sweet taste in his mouth had not faded yet.

Shen Qinghan originally thought that he could finally be alone and quiet, but who would have thought that Lin Jie would come again two hours later.

"What do you want?"

Looking at Lin Jie who appeared at the door, Shen Qinghan said indifferently.

"Why do you have such a big reaction?" It's not like I'm going to eat you. "

Lin Jie snorted, then strode in with large strides and placed the steaming hot porridge in his hands in front of Shen Qinghan, saying, "I heard from a servant that you haven't eaten anything for an entire day, so I cooked a bowl of porridge for you. Try it."

Shen Qinghan looked at the steaming bowl of porridge, and thought of the taste that was filled with salt, and his eyes became serious.

"Don't worry, I'm not so wicked as to kill a patient. The porridge this time is very normal."

Lin Jie curled his lips and said.

"If you don't believe me, then I'll eat it for you to see."

Without saying a word, Lin Jie scooped up a small mouthful of soup and put it in his mouth, then looked at Shen Qinghan: "See, it's fine, now can you relax and eat it?"

Shen Qinghan's brows twitched.

"Leave it, I'll eat it later."

Shen Qinghan helplessly sighed and said.

"Wait a moment?" "I'll be cold later. How can I eat when it's cold?"

Lin Jie stared intently at Shen Qinghan, unwilling to let him go.

Shen Qinghan couldn't help but rub his forehead. Was this Lin Jie sent by the heavens to torture him?

Feeling helpless, Shen Qinghan could only eat the bowl of porridge.

"How's the taste?"

Lin Jie's eyes lit up, staring straight at Shen Qinghan.

"Yes, very good, thank you."

Shen Qinghan said indifferently as he put down the bowl.

It was not as salty as before, and the taste was surprisingly good.

"Hahaha, don't look at how I am! Before I enter Crown Prince's Palace, I will be relying on my culinary skills to eat!"

Hearing that, Lin Jie put his hands on his waist and became complacent.

He remembered that Lin Jie sold buns in the past, right?

Indeed, he could be considered to be someone who relied on his culinary skills to make a living.

Thinking about it, Shen Qinghan couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth. In that instant, it was as if the snow had just melted and Lin Jie couldn't help but be startled when he saw it.

This was the first time he saw Shen Qinghan smile, right? Even if it was only a slight smile, it was enough to shock Lin Jie.

In that instant, Lin Jie couldn't help but think that Shen Qinghan actually knew how to smile. He thought that Shen Qinghan only had that icy face he always wore, but no other expression on his face.

For some reason, Lin Jie felt that Shen Qinghan looked really good when he smiled so that even a man like him couldn't help but be infatuated with her.

"What are you looking at?"

Shen Qinghan glanced at Lin Jie.

"Nothing …"

Lin Jie rubbed his chin, staring straight at Shen Qinghan.

"…"

"Shen Qinghan, can I ask you for a favor?"

"What?"

"Can you smile at me again?"

"…"

"Just one!"

"…"

"I think you look even better when you smile than the Courtesan Belle of the Yi-hong Courtyard."

"F * ck off."

Lin Jie decisively was lifted up and thrown out.
