Chapter 99 Break up
The palace banquet was nothing special, just like the ones in costume dramas. Everyone tasted delicious food and wine, and enjoyed the talent show.

She was bored watching the performance below, and her eyes scanned the surrounding circle, mostly unfamiliar faces.

At this time, a deep and deep voice sounded in her ears: "But you're bored?"

Lifting his side eyes, he met Zhou Chengjing's beautiful pair of phoenix eyes.

"It's okay." She said perfunctorily.

Zhou Chengjing picked up a chopstick and put it on her plate, and said with a smile, "Taste it."

She was surprised for a moment, then picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, her eyes lit up instantly.

Although it's delicious, you can't eat too much. After all, how many eyes are staring at them at the banquet, and she doesn't want to be embarrassed.

Zhou Chengjing seemed to be aware of her thoughts, so he picked up another new dish with chopsticks for her, and said lightly: "Don't worry, no one dares to say anything about you."

With his words, Xie Jintang felt a lot more at ease, but after all, her appearance was much more dignified than usual, and she ate the food gracefully. I have to say that she looks much more presentable now.

Seeing that he didn't move his chopsticks at all, she put a chopstick on his plate, with a bright smile between her brows, and her red lips moved slightly: "Your Majesty, try it too."

He ate it with dignity.

The two of them didn't know that the queen mother next to them was watching them with a satisfied smile on her face, as if she was eating cp.

Halfway through the banquet, the two were basically interacting secretly. Fortunately, there was a curtain in front of them, and everyone's attention was on the performance, so no one paid attention to them.

At this moment, Princess Miyue appeared in a purple dance dress. Her exotic beauty instantly attracted everyone's attention. Even Xie Jintang was dumbfounded. Miyue walked forward to a place in the Southern Chu Kingdom. According to the etiquette, he said with a smile: "Respected Emperor Nanchu, Miyue has specially prepared a dance to present this time."

"I agree." Zhou Chengjing said lightly.

Naturally, Miyue was not dancing solo. Soon, the dancers who were also dressed in dance clothes had already stood up in order. When the music played, she began to dance lightly, and her graceful dancing posture was displayed in front of everyone.

For a moment, everyone was stunned, not sure whether they were immersed in Mi Yue's beauty or that wonderful dance.

Xie Jintang looked sideways, with a serious expression on his face, and joked with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's too late to regret it. You see, Princess Miyue has just appeared on the stage, and she has attracted all the young men present."

She didn't know why, but she always felt sore in her heart. It was obvious that the people around her had already promised her that she would not marry Miyue. Besides, she saw that Miyue liked her elder brother, but for some reason, she looked at the candles shining brightly. The shining Miyue, she was afraid for the first time, fearing that Zhou Chengjing would also be attracted.

Zhou Chengjing held her hand, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he leaned close to her ear, his low and hoarse voice slowly said, "You are jealous?"

A gust of heat came from her ear, and she felt itchy immediately. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her heart beat faster for no reason. She seemed to see a trace of tenderness flashing in his eyes, almost to the point where she thought she had misread it.

Quickly turned away, and said stiffly, "No."

At this moment, 008 said for the first time: [Host, don't be stubborn, you already like Zhou Chengjing, otherwise, how could you be afraid that he will be attracted by Mi Yue. 】

Xie Jintang, who refused to admit it, still stubbornly refuted 008 in his heart: [cough, you little brat understands a fart]

[Hum hum] 008 hummed a couple of times in displeasure, and then fell silent.

Zhou Chengjing's big hand rubbed against her fingertips, and she instantly felt an electric shock, and subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but she heard him say, "Good boy, I don't like her type."

"Then what type do you like?" After asking this question unconsciously, he realized that it was a bit abrupt after he finished speaking.

He played with Xie Jintang's little hand, his eyes flashed with tenderness, his eyelashes blinked, looked at her meaningfully, and said in a joking tone: "Naturally she is the type of queen."

As soon as these words came out, Xie Jintang raised his eyelids instantly, was stunned for a moment, then lowered them again, a blush appeared on both sides of his cheeks.

Him, is this a confession?

There seems to be some sweetness in my heart.

Perhaps, as 008 said, she has unknowingly liked Zhou Chengjing.

But how long this liking can last, is it just his whim.

She dare not gamble.

Xie Jintang raised his head, forced himself to smile, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, don't make fun of my concubine."

In the next second, he heard his suppressed anger voice: "Do you think I'm joking?"

What she didn't notice was the loss that flashed in those eyes, and her trembling body.

"Isn't it?" At this moment, she smiled, acting like a scumbag.

Zhou Chengjing stared at her with scarlet eyes, with anger on his brows, he said hello three times in a row, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, okay."

She didn't say a word, she turned her face away to watch the performance below, but she knew that she felt uncomfortable at this moment.

Since time travelling, she has always warned herself not to lose her mind, but now, she seems to have fallen into it.

She had no intention of watching the performance, and there was bitterness in those beautiful eyes.

Before she knew it, when did Miyue finish her dance and get a reward, she didn't care about it.

At some point, the banquet was over, and when she raised her head again, she just glanced at Zhou Chengjing's indifferent eyes, then turned and left.

He must be angry, that's right, he is a high-ranking emperor, how could he tolerate being rejected by a woman.

They will probably become strangers again in the future.

Shouldn't this be what she expected, but her heart hurts so much. Thinking of this, she smiled bitterly.

On the way back, she realized that she was going to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but at this time Zhou Chengjing probably didn't want to see her again.

Xie Jintang ordered lightly: "Qinglian, go back to Fengluan Palace."

Qinglian became anxious, and asked without knowing why: "Your Majesty, why is this?"

"Only there belongs to me." She raised her head, smiled bitterly, with a hint of sadness between her brows, and said slowly.

One must be self-aware, she doesn't want to go back and be kicked out again, that would be too embarrassing.

Qinglian saw that something was wrong with her, so she stopped talking, as if she was afraid that she would be sad.

After returning to Fengluan Palace.

It was a little empty, unexpectedly, those things of hers were not thrown back, um, maybe it was too late, or maybe Zhou Chengjing was still angry now.

She drank a glass of water to calm down, but found that Qinglian looked outside the door from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone to come.

"Qinglian, what are you looking at?"

"Go back to your majesty, this servant is checking to see if your majesty has come down."
