Chapter 52: The Night of Candles 2

Lin Ruo naturally knew that what Murong Chong was talking about was the staggering of the chips he was going to face, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and hurriedly changed a gloating smile: "Lord Wang, then you go quickly!" I went to the banquet hall to have a full meal, and I just asked Yucao to prepare some food for me, and when I was taken out of my sleep early in the morning, I only ate some pastries, and starved to death! ”

Murong Chong looked at Lin Ruo, who was unabashedly trying to drive him away, and narrowed his eyebrows.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I remember, someone promised me before, at the right time, to tell me her plans, I don't know now, can I still count?"

Lin Ruo smiled slyly: "This princess pinched her fingers, although the time is today, but the time is not right, and when the prince sends the guests away, it will be almost over." ”

Murong Chong glanced at Lin Ruo intriguingly, the word "princess" came out of her mouth so naturally, she was really a little unaccustomed: "How do I think that you, a profiteer, have other plans?" ”

"Huh?"

Looking at Lin Ruo's suspicious expression, Murong Chong couldn't help but wonder if he was wrong, so he habitually said bluntly about his guess: "Aren't you planning to take advantage of the fact that I was drunk and delirious, and let me agree to your conditions in a daze?" ”

Lin Ruo laughed out loud: "Lord Wang, even if you are not confident in your drinking, you should have confidence in your brain, right?" I don't dare to underestimate King Rong, who has never been defeated on the battlefield! Moreover, I told the prince that small wealth depends on wisdom, and big wealth depends on virtue. I'm not going to cut off a good deal for a small profit. The Lin family can't withstand the destruction of the tiger army under the prince! ”

Murong Chong's dark eyes shone, listening to her half-joking assurance, a rare smile unconsciously flowed out from the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, the smile was as bright as the sun, and his handsome face also made Lin Ruo's heart miss a beat unconsciously-a face that has been rigid and law-abiding all year round and does not smile suddenly showed a gentle and amiable side, making his whole person look a lot more friendly, with a handsome and resolute face, it is indeed amazing.

But Lin Ruo immediately came back to his senses and coughed awkwardly, but still praised frankly: "Lord Wang, I can't see it, when you laugh, you look good and are very warm." ”

Murong Chong was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, so he could only let her laugh and drive himself out of the room.

The footsteps walked away, the tip of Lin Ruo's nose moved slightly, and he walked to the incense niche and cut off the burning warm incense. The curling cigarettes quickly burned out, and the sweet smell that permeated the new house soon dissipated with the slightly open window lattices.

In the new house of the wedding, there must be some warm incense containing aphrodisiac drugs, although the medicinal properties are mild, but for Lin Ruo and Murong Chong, it seems too redundant.

After a while, Youcao knocked on the door of the new house and came in with a pot of hot water.

The bride must wait in the new room until the groom and his guests return to the room to eat together, and before that, the bride can only eat a few pastries secretly.

However, although it is not possible to pass the meal, it is not a violation of etiquette to ask the kitchen for a pot of hot water.

After Youcao entered the door, Lin Ruo hurriedly closed the door tightly, and closed the ventilation window as well, and then the thief smiled and took out a food box. What is placed here is the ingredients for the instant noodles she asked Lao Liang to prepare.

How could she be stupidly hungry and wait until Murong Chong came back to eat? Anyway, it has already been said, this big wedding is just a way to conclude an alliance between them, without those exquisiteness and scruples.

Put the ingredients in a bowl and pour hot water for a tantalizing taste that whets your appetite. buckled the plate, took advantage of the waiting time, and let Yucao quickly help her remove her makeup, clean her face, and apply balm, and the time was almost up. As soon as he lifted the plate buckled on the big bowl, the rich fragrance made Lin Ruo and Youcao, two people who had been hungry for a day, let out a satisfied exclamation.

The master and servant were not pretentious, and immediately began to enjoy the fragrant and hot food.

While eating the grass, he praised Lin Ruo and said, "Miss, you are really prescient!" It's a shame that I was the same as the young master at the beginning, and I thought that this instant noodle tasted average, and I was really ignorant! ”

Lin Ruo's mouth was not idle, and he replied vaguely: "That's because you haven't been hungry for too long, and you don't know how to be blessed when you are in ......."

Youcao nodded: "It's true!" But Miss, let's do this, if the prince knows......"

Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows: "If you are full, give me your share." ”

Youcao shook her head busily, and put the bowl in front of her: "Miss, you can't eat so much, you have to pass the meal when the prince comes back!" ”

After saying that, he buried his head and began to eat again.

Satisfied, he swallowed the strong dough slice, and Youcao couldn't help but ask, "Miss, do you really plan to give these things to the prince?" And it's today? ”

His gaze swept over the rosewood box, and inside was what Lin Ruo had prepared in advance. She knew what it was, and there were a few other things she didn't mind, and she couldn't interject because she didn't understand, but there was an envelope inside, and what was in it was what she was really worried about.

Lin Ruo didn't slow down the speed of eating noodles: "Otherwise, when do you think it's appropriate to hand it over?" ”

"At least not today......"

"What's wrong today?"

"Today is the wedding day of you and the prince, and the candle cave room is at night!"

"That's why it has to be today." Lin Ruo stopped his chopsticks and looked at Youcao seriously, "Don't worry, I'm measured." ”

Youcao nodded, no longer persuaded, and smiled at Lin Ruo: "Well, I believe in Miss." ”

By the time Murong Chong returned to his new house, the night had already fallen. Youcao had already secretly taken the dishes and chopsticks out, but there was no warm fragrance in the room, and it was easy to identify a fragrance that tickled the taste buds, after all, it was inevitable that there would be some hunger in the stomach after a stomach full of wine.

This girl dares to violate the etiquette law and eat first in the new house, which is really bold!

"You let someone pass the meal?"

Lin Ruo shook his head: "No! I just asked Youcao to help me get a pot of hot water, the prince doesn't believe it, you can check it. ”

Murong Chong frowned, he believed Lin Ruo's words, but the smell of food in this room that had not yet dispersed aroused his doubts: "Then ...... you?"

Lin Ruo didn't hide it, nodded, and smiled slyly: "Eat." ”

Murong Chong was a little surprised when he heard her admit so bluntly: "Could it be that you brought food from the Lin Mansion?" ”

Lin Ruo smiled lightly, and did not answer Murong Chong's question directly, but asked: "Looking at the appearance of the prince, he should have drunk a lot of wine, but his stomach was empty, and he didn't eat much. Do you want to have someone pass the food first, or do you want to listen to my answer first? ”

Murong Chong remembered what Lin Ruo said about "timing" and what she had mentioned, afraid that he would not give her a chance, so the corners of his mouth hooked and said, "You seem to want me to choose the latter." ”

Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows: "Am I the kind of passive person?" ”

"Not really. However, I would also like to choose the latter. ”

Lin Ruo was slightly stunned, then smiled, and called loudly outside the door: "Someone!" ”
