Chapter 33 Worry About Her

She didn't know what the real purpose of the third prince was, so she had to be on guard from time to time.

If he was really such an affectionate person, he shouldn't treat her with such a frivolous attitude.

"So it's like this..." Zhou Ying was obviously a little disappointed, as if it wasn't the answer she was expecting.

After seeing Zhou Ying off, Li Yulou went to the workshop and started to get busy.

It was already a bit late, and she had been busy for almost an hour when she saw that familiar figure appearing in the courtyard of Doctor Song's house next door.

Li Yulou got excited and shook his body a few times on the pole for drying the fabrics.

"Miss, be careful..." Chun Tao almost stuck the melon seeds in her throat.

"I'm fine, I'm going down..." Li Yulou opened his throat and shouted in a clear and loud voice.

But she didn't look at Chuntao below, but at the thin and tall figure in the yard next door.

The boy turned his head and looked in the direction of the source of the sound against the light, and saw the girl standing on the pole where the fabric was drying and smiling brightly at him.

The young man stood against the light, his cheeks were golden in the evening sun.

The girl raised her slender white arms and waved at the boy.

A slight smile appeared on the boy's face.

Li Yulou was so happy that his heart seemed to be glued to honey. He quickly slid down the drying pole, went into the house and changed his clothes, then rushed into the kitchen, wrapped some snacks, ran out the door, and knocked on the courtyard next door. Door.

The boy opened the door, and his slender fingers held the door shut very nicely.

Li Yulou's brows and eyes were full of smiles, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, he was slightly panting because he was running so fast, his red lips were rosy, and his eyes sparkled, like a lamb just out of the fence, seeing everything was novel.

"Shiyu..." Li Yulou shouted happily, his voice was sweet and clear, like words jumping between notes.

"Come in..." Meng Shiyu stepped aside.

Li Yulou rubbed Meng Shiyu's side and entered the yard.

"Why did you come back suddenly? Are you not busy? You didn't study for a long time today, and now you go home, won't you delay your studies?" Li Yulou said, sitting on the stone bench in the yard, opened the snack box, took I took a piece of coconut cake and put it on the small plate prepared earlier, "Shiyu, eat this. My mother made it yesterday. It's delicious. I'll make it for you when I have a chance..."

Meng Shiyu took the snack, but didn't eat it, and put it aside.

"How well you prepare for your homework, don't worry about these things, the most important thing is to prepare well for your homework..."

"Why did His Highness ask you to go inside? Who did you meet inside?" Meng Shiyu suddenly looked at her and asked.

Li Yulou stood there in a daze, flustered and throbbing, his eyes flickering, he didn't dare to look at Meng Shiyu, as if the little daughter-in-law saw that the foreigner had been caught, and a huge sense of guilt surged in her heart.

"Can't you tell me?" Meng Shiyu asked again.

Li Yulou feels that today's Shiyu is particularly harsh, as if the female husband who stared at her while reading and writing when she was a child made her have nowhere to escape.

"Shiyu, I..." Li Yulou felt that there was nothing he couldn't tell Meng Shiyu, but he didn't want him to worry about it. He was preparing for Qiu Wei, so he couldn't be distracted by her affairs.

"Qiu Wei is fine. I am sure to be admitted to Jinshi. You tell me, so I can feel more at ease." Meng Shiyu's voice was soft, as if he had seen through her.

Li Yulou's pupils enlarged, and her big watery eyes looked at Meng Shiyu in disbelief. The water mist swirled around in her pupils, changing indefinitely.

The boy was worried about her, right? He was worried about her.Li Yulou was happy in his heart, jumping up and down like a bunny, a pink color floated on his cheeks, like a peach blossom in the branches.

Meng Shiyu looked away, his throat rolled, and then he turned his head to look at her again, "Are you planning how to lie to me?"

"How come..." Li Yulou shook his head, and the indigo pendant on the hairpin in his bun swayed slightly.

"Then you have something to hide, can you tell me..." Meng Shiyu's face suddenly turned cold, "Then forget it, let me come back for nothing this time."

"How can there be..." Li Yulou grabbed his hand hanging by his side in a panic.His knuckles are well-proportioned, with a comfortable temperature.

However, Li Yulou subconsciously withdrew his hand as if he had touched a sharp thorn, the blush on his cheeks spread to the roots of his ears like ripples, and the round earlobes were as moist as purple jade.

"Well, it's really nothing, but I'm not sure..." Li Yulou explained, "My mother and I were looking for good paints in Mingshan 14 years ago, but we found a six or seven-year-old boy in the mountains. "

"My mother and I sent the child back to Jingyue Nunnery, but we didn't know it was the third prince..."

"Yesterday, I didn't know that the imperial concubine and the third prince invited me to the banquet."

"When I met you, I had just finished seeing the third prince and the imperial concubine, and I was also taken aback at that time... Also, the third prince said strange things to me."

"What strange words?" Meng Shiyu asked.

"I only told you and my mother about this..." Li Yulou leaned over and lowered his voice, "I think..."

The young man felt the sweet fragrance released by the girl straight into his nostrils, and then penetrated his internal organs.The girl's warm breath blew by his ears, like the warm wind in spring.

"Third Highness has impure thoughts about me, maybe because he is greedy for my beauty."

After Li Yulou finished speaking, she lowered her eyebrows shyly, her eyelashes trembling like a dragonfly flapping its wings, and the corner of her right lip was biting between her white teeth like shells, looking shy and cute.

Meng Shiyu hummed.

"You think my feelings are right, don't you?" Li Yulou looked up at Meng Shiyu excitedly, feeling how precious it is to be understood.

"Of course..." Meng Shiyu nodded, "Aside from your beauty, you have nothing worthy of a prince's concern."

Li Yulou felt that there was something wrong with this remark, and it seemed to be complimenting her, but it didn't seem like it was, so let it go, "Shi Yu also thinks I'm pretty, right?"

Meng Shiyu felt that the topic was a bit off topic, so he said instead, "Then you have to be careful, after all, you are the third prince, don't be fooled by his rhetoric and identity."

After Meng Shiyu finished speaking, he turned and went back into the house, leaving Li Yulou alone in the courtyard messy, what did he mean by that, was he worried that she would be cheated away by the third prince, or worried that she would be cheated away by all the men.

Also, if he thinks that way, is he responsible for her?
Should she ask him what he meant?

It's been a long time since this mess, Meng Shiyu packed up some things, then took the snacks Li Yulou gave him to bid farewell and left, saying that he was going back to Chunhui Academy.

Li Yulou walked back in a bit of a state of dismay, and just as she reached the door, she saw Zhou Ying standing at the door of her house with tears in her eyes, as if she had suffered a lot, and was about to knock on the door.
