C30 The Mandarin Duck Bath of the Hero and Heroine

No matter how open-minded Cheng Lolo was, she was the one who had first flirted with him, but now that he had been staring at her naked for so long, she could not help but feel shy. Her heart was beating fast, and her face was flushed.

Realizing that it was not the right time, Yuan Muchen did not say anything more and turned to leave.

He found himself at a loss for what to do with this princess of the Tianmu Kingdom. Some of her actions made him feel ashamed, and aroused him to the point of wanting to kill her.

Seeing that Yuan Muchen had turned around, Cheng Lolo hurriedly climbed out of the hot spring and quickly hung his clothes on his body. When everything was ready, he realized that Yuan Muchen's footsteps had disappeared.

Did he just leave without saying a word? Cheng Luoluo suddenly thought of a phrase: He left without saying goodbye.

That was not right.

Cheng Luoluo looked around and tentatively shouted, "Hey, Your Highness Chen?" No one responded, so she continued to complain." Why, Prince Chen, you are so dishonest! It is so dark now, and you are a man, can't you be more or less a gentleman, and send me, a weak girl, back before you go?"

She brushed her wet hair and picked up the lantern hanging from the tree. Just as she was about to leave, she heard Yuan Muchen's mocking voice from behind the rockery, "Heh! Which weak woman would not sleep at night and come to a man's hot spring and shamelessly take off his clothes?"

"I..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Yuan Muchen didn't want to give her the chance to finish her words, so he said, "Since the princess can sneak in alone, why do you need me to send you back?"

Thinking about how Cheng Luoluo had already offended him more than once without even knowing it, Yuan Muchen felt a wave of depression in his heart. As for why, he couldn't say.

He didn't expect that Yuan Muchen, who was known for his aloofness, would talk back to him one after another. Cheng Luoluo was speechless and could only silently walk towards the source of the voice.

The story seemed to be getting more and more melodramatic as the female lead accidentally took a bath with the male lead, and it was at this moment that she noticed Long Teng's tattoo. Cheng Luoluo felt that the story was becoming more and more interesting.

As he turned around behind the rockery, he saw Yuan Muchen standing with his hands behind his back in the faint moonlight.

The moonlight stretched his back so long that even though he was extraordinarily beautiful and detached, like a picture in a scroll, like a god in heaven, aloof from the world, he seemed lonely, but he was not dejected.

Cheng Lolo stood quietly behind him and looked at him for a while. Suddenly she thought of a saying in the real world, 'In the real world, young girls who are in love often say that all the handsome ones are handed over to the country.'

He always maintained this manner, and must have suffered a great deal since he was a child to be able to do so. Alas, it was only at this moment that Cheng Lolo seemed to understand why he was so punctilious.

All in all, she knew she couldn't bear it, and in order not to grow up with a hunchback, she had been coerced by her parents into a period of physical education, after which she could only envy the children who sat and stood.

Cheng Luoluo walked up to Yuan Muchen and gently pushed him on the back, but he did not react or move at all. Cheng Luoluo pushed him again, and Yuan Muchen slowly turned around and could not help but ask, "What is the princess doing?"

Cheng Luoluo pursed her lips, then quickly gathered her emotions. "Well, I really didn't come in on purpose tonight. His Highness knew I was being plotted against, so he made a mess of himself. When he heard the servants say that there was a hot spring in the Tai Chen Palace, he thought of sneaking in. But if I had known that this was His Highness's private hot spring, I definitely wouldn't have come."

At this point, Cheng Lolo paused, and her eyes lit up as she came up with another idea. She grabbed Yuan Muchen's arm and started to shake it. She said in the gentlest, sweetest voice, "So, Your Highness, please don't hold a grudge against me, okay? Please?"

She felt like puking.

It was rare to see a woman like Cheng Luoluo act like a spoiled child. Yuan Muchen's foot, which had just taken a step forward, instantly retracted. In the dim light, his face once again flushed red.

His heart was beating so fast that Yuan Muchen couldn't help but cover his chest with his hand. Ever since he met Cheng Luoluo, he felt this feeling more and more frequently. He turned his head slightly and glanced at the people behind him from the corner of his eye.

Yuan Muchen no longer cared about Cheng Luo. He adjusted his breathing and said, "Follow me closely. I will send you back." Then he started to walk away.

Cheng Luo Luo paused for a second when he heard that. He was so happy that he smiled wickedly. He hurried to catch up and continued to tease, "Your Highness... Your Highness... Don't you want to continue?"

... "" He ignored her.

"Your Highness? Your Highness?" Cheng Luoluo seemed to be addicted to teasing her, but she didn't give up.

... "" Still no one responded.

"Hey..." He was annoyed.

... ""

Cheng Luo Luo followed behind Yuan Muchen. Yuan Muchen's legs were long while hers were small. She had to run to catch up with him.

Tch! Isn't it just a pair of long legs? What's so great about them? Aren't they afraid of falling if they walk so fast?

Ye Xiao started to feel sour because he couldn't eat grapes again.

"Hey, Prince Chen, you are walking so fast. Can't you wait for me?"

Cheng Luoluo pouted and complained. She had originally thought that he would ignore her like before, but she had not expected that he would actually slow down a little.

She looked at his back, and it was obvious that he was a shy, soft-hearted little boy who didn't know how to express himself. Why did he have to pretend to be so boring?

On the ground, Yuan Muchen's shadow was stretched out very, very long. Cheng Lolo's dark eyes rolled, and she instantly came up with a plan. She grinned and ran after him with small, low steps.

Yuan Muchen's martial arts and inner energy were profound, so his hearing was naturally outstanding. He could clearly hear Cheng Luo Luo's every move behind him.

After walking for a while, it seemed that Cheng Luo Luo also felt a little tired, so he returned to his normal way of walking. At this moment, he heard Yuan Muchen, who had been silent the whole time, speak, "Are you not going to step on the shadow anymore?"

He was also surprised at himself. He actually allowed her to play such a childish game on him without any anger or intention of stopping her.

Cheng Luoluo raised her head in surprise. "Your Highness knows?" She silently cursed in her heart. This fellow did not stop. Could it be that he also had a pair of eyes on the back of his head?

Yuan Muchen didn't explain further. He just continued to walk forward. Perhaps even he himself didn't notice it. At this moment, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Seeing that Yuan Muchen didn't answer, Cheng Luo Luo kept his mouth shut and didn't ask any more questions.

Very soon, the person in front stopped. Luckily, Cheng Luo Luo, who was one step behind, stopped in time. Otherwise, he would have hit Yuan Mu Chen's back.

"Okay, we're here!"

Cheng Luo Luo suddenly raised her head and found that she had already arrived outside her room. She took a look and felt a little disappointed. She did not expect it to be so fast.

She looked at the time and found that it was already past the curfew time. It was dark inside and no lights were left for her. The other maids should have already gone to sleep.

Hopefully, she wouldn't be caught by the steward's maids.

Seeing that Cheng Luo didn't move and still had a disappointed expression on his face, Yuan Muchen was puzzled and asked, "Princess, why don't you go in?" After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized, "Oh... Now that the princess's identity has been exposed, she must not want to live with these servants anymore. Tomorrow, I will have the princess sent back to the palace."

As soon as Cheng Luoluo heard this, he became anxious and said with red eyes, "No, no, no, who allowed you to be so clever? I don't want to go back."

Hearing what she was thinking, Yuan Muchen was shocked at first, but then his face darkened. He opened his mouth to refuse, "No!"

"Why?"

Both of them were excited, and Cheng Luo Luo raised her voice. At this moment, the lights in the room suddenly lit up, and someone came towards the door with a lamp.

Cheng Luoluo suddenly had an idea. She stepped forward and grabbed Yuan Muchen's arm, pulling the two of them to a corner to hide. Cheng Luoluo pushed Yuan Muchen against the wall so hard that his back was pressed against the wall. Cheng Luoluo did not even have the time to react before she pushed a man who was a head taller than her against the wall.

"You!"

"Shh... someone's coming out." Cheng Luo Luo didn't look at him. He was focused on the door.
