[R18] Quick Travel Heroine’s Counterattack Plan (h) – Chapter 17 of “Quick Travel Heroine’s Counterattack Plan (h)” [English]
byThe cold-faced prince is in need of love (16)
After that day, there were some subtle changes in the relationship between the two.Although Bei Yelin’s face was still as cold as ever, he did not reject Leng Xiyan’s approach. Occasionally, there would be a soft expression on his face.For Leng Xiyan, this is already a great progress. As long as she works harder, Bei Yelin will fall in love with her.
Bei Yelin went out early that morning without letting anyone follow him.At night, seeing that Bei Yelin hadn’t come back yet, he would usually tell the housekeeper when he would be back if he went out, but today he didn’t, Leng Xiyan couldn’t help but feel something was abnormal.
She thought for a while and decided to ask the housekeeper. Maybe he would get some clues.
Leng Xiyan found the housekeeper and asked, “Uncle housekeeper, do you know where the sixth prince has gone?”
The housekeeper shook his head: “I don’t know about this, but the Sixth Prince goes out every year at this time.”
Leng Xiyan said slightly disappointedly: “Oh, I know.”
Leng Xiyan had just turned around to leave when the housekeeper suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called to Leng Xiyan: “Princess, wait a minute, I have something to say.”
Leng Xiyan turned around and asked doubtfully: “Uncle housekeeper, is there anything else?”
The butler knocked on his head, “Look at this old slave’s brain, he has forgotten such an important thing,” the butler said angrily, “Today is the sixth prince’s birthday.”
Leng Xiyan opened her eyes slightly and said in surprise: “Today is his birthday, why didn’t anyone tell me?”
The housekeeper sighed: “The sixth prince used to celebrate his birthdays with his biological mother, Concubine De, but since the death of Concubine De, the sixth prince has not celebrated his birthday. At that time, he was relegated to the cold palace and suffered all kinds of bullying. It would be nice if he had enough to eat. How can he talk about celebrating his birthday?”
The housekeeper paused for a while and then continued: “Actually, the sixth prince is also a pitiful person. In order to survive, he can only arm himself with indifference. By the time the emperor found out the truth and released him, he already had a cold temper. After leaving the palace and building a mansion, he was even more unwilling to mention his birth date because it would remind him of his mother and concubine. Therefore, no one in the sixth prince’s mansion knew his birth date. The old slave only found out when the prince’s concubine was about to marry.”
“I see, I understand, thank you, uncle butler.” Leng Xiyan said.
“Princess, the Sixth Prince is actually very bitter inside. You have to treat him well.” The steward added.
“I will.” Leng Xiyan said solemnly.
After listening to the housekeeper’s words, Leng Xiyan suddenly felt very distressed in her heart. She felt distressed that Bei Yelin had no one to rely on. She felt distressed that he could only protect herself with indifference. She suddenly wanted to do something for him.
When it was time to fall asleep, Bei Yelin finally came back.As soon as he stepped into the mansion, the housekeeper came over and reported: “Sixth prince, the princess wants to see you for something. She asked you to find her when you come back.”
Bei Yelin frowned slightly and said, “I understand, you go down first.” After that, he strode to Leng Xiyan’s yard.
When I came to her yard, I saw that it was quiet, no one was there, and it was pitch black.Bei Yelin felt very strange. At this time, something lit up in the pond in the yard. It turned out to be a river lantern. One, two… dozens of river lanterns lit up one by one, illuminating the entire yard.
At this time, Leng Xiyan walked up to him holding a bowl of longevity noodles and said to him with a smile: “Happy birthday, Mr. longevity star.”
Bei Yelin looked at the river lanterns filling the pond and the longevity noodles in Leng Xiyan’s hand. He suddenly felt as if his throat was choked by something and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing this, Leng Xiyan said with a smile: “What? You are so moved by me that you can’t speak? Hurry up and eat the noodles while they are hot. They won’t taste good if they are lumpy.” After saying that, she pulled him into the pavilion and placed the noodles in front of him. “Why are you looking at me? Eat the noodles quickly.”
Bei Yelin obediently picked up the chopsticks and ate the noodles.After eating, he was silent for a long time and asked in a hoarse voice: “Did you make this?”
Leng Xiyan said proudly: “Yes, I made it. Is it delicious?”
Bei Yelin replied in a low voice: “It’s delicious.”
Leng Xiyan said happily: “That’s good.”
“Look, I’m so good to you, you have to be nicer to me. It’s scary to be so cold all day long…” Leng Xiyan complained slightly, more like coquettishness than complaint.
Bei Yelin looked at her chattering about him, and he didn’t feel disgusted but felt very warm. He couldn’t help but hugged her, buried his head in her shoulders, and said thank you in a low voice.
Hearing this, Leng Xiyan softened her body, patted He on the back, and said softly: “It’s okay, it’s okay. I’ll celebrate your birthday with you from now on.”
Hearing this, Bei Yelin hugged her a little tighter.
