The Yandere Male Lead Chases Me

Chapter 498: The Regent King Wants a Kiss 29

While speaking, that person hurriedly ran outside.

The eunuch was so annoyed that he rolled his eyes.

Now, a new girl had joined the Prince Mansion.

Beautiful and kind-hearted, she just ate a bit too much.

But ever since this girl arrived,

For the first time in his many years at the Prince Mansion, he felt that the once stringent and lifeless place finally had some human warmth.

It became busier, yet the Prince seemed no longer to chop off heads for minor displeasures as before.

A few days ago, a maid accidentally spilled tea on the Prince and he surprisingly said nothing.

Originally, that servant was so terrified that her face turned pale, thinking this time she would lose her head.

But Miss Su Yan, brimming with excitement, I have no idea where she took the Prince, allowing the maid to escape disaster.

Not only did the maid breathe a sigh of relief, but in his eyes, it was also shocking.

Since the Prince’s leg became disabled, his temperament has been very gloomy and volatile.

Even if he was smiling, his face could change at any moment, and he might order an execution on a whim.

Where had there ever been a scene where the Prince wears a smile and lets someone push him along?

He thought to himself while urging,

"Hurry up, don’t keep the Prince and the girl waiting."

The girl might eat a lot, but this is the Prince Mansion, there’s no worry of not being able to afford her meals, right??

In the inner courtyard, under the Osmanthus Tree.

Su Yan sat on a stone bench, holding an apple and biting into it bite by bite.

Next to her, Yu Wenxu held a book of miscellany, flipping through it page by page.

Probably bored, she leaned in closer.

The crisp crunch of her biting sounds was very loud.

Her eyes, like stars, keenly stared at the book in Yu Wenxu’s hand.

At first glance, one might think she was utterly engrossed in it.

Yu Wenxu’s attention was successfully diverted from the book to her.

Reaching out, he pulled her into his embrace.

His voice tinged with an almost imperceptible hint of laughter,

"Hungry?"

As soon as the question was asked, Su Yan immediately turned her head to look at him.

Then she vigorously nodded her head,

"Hungry."

He placed the book in his hand on the stone table beside him.

Looking up, he saw the delicate osmanthus blossoms in full, beautiful bloom.

An osmanthus flower fell, gently drifting down across Su Yan’s forehead.

Su Yan blinked, watching this osmanthus flower slip by right in front of her eyes.

Reaching out, she caught it.

The next second, it was in her mouth.

Yu Wenxu shook his head, laughing,

"Is there anything you don’t eat?"

After giving it some thought, Su Yan nodded earnestly,

"Yes."

Saying this, her gaze turned towards the miscellany lying next to Yu Wenxu.

"This doesn’t taste good."

Yu Wenxu raised an eyebrow, falling silent for a moment as if inquiring,

"Doesn’t taste good?"

Su Yan nodded,

"It has a bad taste."

Hearing this description from her - what exactly does ’not tasty’ taste like? - Yu Wenxu wondered,

Su Yan was simply curious; what was so great about this thing that Yu Wenxu would take time out every day to review and scribble in the study.

So, she sneakily tried a taste when he was not paying attention.

It didn’t taste good.

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly heard Yu Wenxu whisper in her ear,

"A few days ago, a memorial in my study was nibbled half to pieces; it wouldn’t happen to be you, right?"

Su Yan blinked, having learned some things over the past month after becoming an adult.

She inquired in a soft voice,

"Is that important?"

Yu Wenxu looked at her with a little guarded expression and a slight smile on his lips,

"Naturally, it’s important. Thinking it was gnawed by a mouse, I had the guard on duty that day punished with more than twenty strokes, his skin torn and flesh split, and he’s still bedridden."

As he spoke, his gaze shifted towards her.

Su Yan quietly turned her eyes away, trying hard to shake her head,

"Not me."

Her soft and sweet voice, sounding guilty.
