Granny Gong had trained the servants well. A set of teaware was always out in the pavilion, and the stove was always lit, no matter how often or not the crown prince was there.
Even his hair was nicer than other people’s.
Even girls would envy his face.
How crazy was that?
Feng Wu was infatuated.
Jun Linyuan poked Feng Wu in the forehead.
Feng Wu woke up from her reverie and put on a serious face once more.
Jun Linyuan was speechless.
“It was the bowknot,” said Jun Linyuan. What bowknot? Feng Wu was dumbfounded.
She searched her memory.
She knew what he meant!
It was that time!
During the entrance examination for Imperial College, she had needed to enter a secret land covered by ice and snow. Jun Linyuan was there as well and was injured. She had tied a bowknot when she treated his wounds…
“That was over a year ago. You knew all along, but you’re not mad at me?”
“I was mad at you.”
“Did you want to kill me?”
“Why not?” Feng Wu blurted out, but she realized that she had asked the wrong question.
Jun Linyuan was staring at her now.
His eyes were frighteningly bright, and she thought she would lose herself in them.
Sensing that things were getting out of hand, Feng Wu turned around to run away.
“Tell me, why wouldn’t I?” Jun Linyuan asked behind her.
There was a hint of anxiety in his voice.
Feng Wu felt that his gaze would burn a hole in her back.
How awkward!
She couldn’t run away like this, but she didn’t dare turn around either.
She wasn’t stupid.
Before, Jun Linyuan was too proud to speak frankly, but now, he was beginning to express his feelings.
For instance, he had used fireworks to put those words in the sky.
Feng Wu didn’t want to face him.
She was scared.
Although she was a decisive person when dealing with other things, when it came to her feelings, she was a coward.
“Answer my question,” the crown prince teased her.
Feng Wu mumbled, “How should I know?”.
