C42 Who's Ugly, Who's Embarrassed?

Lan Qingqian was obviously younger and hadn’t opened her mouth yet, but the two of them were wearing the same color. Lan Qingqian didn’t seem to be inferior to her at all. This dress made the soft and tender little girl even more adorable. The koi fish on the dress was as lively and cute as her.

Perhaps seeing Gu Jun’an’s expression, Wei Lianyi looked at Lan Qingqian and lowered her head slightly. She seemed to be a little embarrassed. “This lowly subject doesn’t know that the princess is also wearing a green dress today. I thought that the princess would wear something more lively and beautiful because she’s young.”

Actually, she knew Gu Jun’an’s preference, but she didn’t expect that Gu Jun’an would put Lan Qingqian in a dress that he liked.

Lan Qingqian seemed to understand, but she still asked seriously, “Is this dress not good for me to wear?” She looked at the mirror and thought that it looked nice. Could the mirror lie to people?

Wei Lianyi was about to speak, but Gu Jun’an patted her on the head and said in a low voice, “You look the best. No one can compare to you!”

The meaning of his words was that Wei Lianyi wasn’t suitable for the dress and didn’t look good.

There were many people coming and going. Apart from the servants in the residence and the nobles in the city, everyone who passed by heard such a loud and blunt sentence.

Wei Lianyi felt ashamed and angry, and her eyes were a little uncomfortable. How could this little girl compare to her?

She tightly clenched her hands and forced herself to suppress her emotions. She pretended not to care and squeezed out a gentle smile. “Of course. The Ninth Princess is the princess, and she isn’t someone ordinary people can compare to.” Her words sounded like Gu Jun’an praising Lan Qingqian because she was the princess.

Lan Qingqian suddenly sniffed and her eyes lit up, “It smells like braised pork!”

Gu Jun’an reached out and pinched her face before dragging her forward, ignoring Wei Lianyi.

“Ugh… don’t pinch me…” Lan Qingqian felt wronged and couldn’t speak clearly. She wanted to protest that Gu Jun’an shouldn’t pinch her face.

There weren’t many princes and princesses in the Imperial City, and Gu Xinghe was the only one who was free. He saw them and immediately waved, “Old Seventh, come here!”

Gu Jun’an pulled her into a seat before letting go of her face.

Lan Qingqian rubbed her face and it became redder. The red finger marks on her face became clearer.

Gu Jun’an frowned and gently rubbed her face twice. He thought to himself, Why is she so tender? It feels like she’s being abused.

Gu Xinghe didn’t notice Gu Jun’an’s expression. He just looked at the people walking by, “I didn’t expect you to come to the banquet of the Wei Clan. Sigh, you shouldn’t be here for the fiancée of the Wei Clan, right?”

Before Gu Jun’an could explain, Gu Xinghe nodded and analyzed, “But it’s normal. The Wei Clan’s young lady is famous in the West Province. Who can be compared to her in terms of looks and talent?”

Lan Qingqian heard this and immediately frowned. She thought to herself, So the bad guy, the old husband, likes Miss Wei!

Hmph!

She fidgeted her head and moved Gu Jun away. Then, she said to Gu Xinghe, “Nonsense. I’m the most beautiful one.”

Gu Jun saw her resistance and was unhappy. She didn’t say anything.

Gu Xinghe heard her and looked at her seriously. He wanted to pinch her face. “Little bean sprout, you haven’t grown up yet. At most, you can be considered cute. How can you be related to a beauty?”

Gu Jun saw the salted pig hand and stopped it. She blocked Gu Xinghe’s hand.

Gu Jun said coldly, “You don’t want your hand anymore?”

“Old Seventh, I’m your brother. Can’t I even touch this little bean sprout?” Gu Xinghe felt wronged. He tried to reach his hand over, but when he reached halfway, he saw Gu Jun’s face of protecting her. He silently reached his hand back and didn’t dare to be impudent anymore.

Lan Qingqian made a face and kept laughing at him. “What!”

Gu Xinghe was so angry that he wanted to make a move. However, Wei Lianyi came over slowly with a wine cup. The Prime Minister and the Prime Minister’s wife were next to her.

“We greet the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Prince! We are late. Please forgive us.”

As she spoke, she brought her family and was about to kneel down.

Gu Jun acted as if he didn’t hear her. Gu Xinghe was too lazy to come over. Both of them didn’t move. Today, it was Prime Minister Wei’s birthday. He thought that although the two of them were princes, he was the prime minister. He should still give face to him.
