Chapter 87: Drowning Sorrows in Wine

After several days of rest, Sixi had recovered quite a bit. The sprain on her right foot had healed for the most part, and she was now full of energy, even sending back the maid that Uncle Zhang had sent.

"Miss, this is the medicine for injuries that the Prince sent today. It is much better than the ones outside!"

Liu Rumei was lying on the attic, enjoying the gentle breeze with her eyes closed, paying no attention to Sixi's words.

Sixi seeing this, the corner of her mouth curved into a smile, and she stepped forward with a laugh. She squatted in front of the couch and poked Liu Rumei's arm that was outside. "Miss Liu, I have been in the Prince's Mansion for so many years, and I have never seen the Prince act like this!"

She had been in the mansion for many years, and Miss Liu was the first woman that the Prince had sent things to!

Liu Rumei's heart stirred, but she still paid no attention. Sixi could not help but sigh helplessly. It seemed that the Prince still needed to work harder!

Thinking of this, she immediately sighed and got up to leave.

After Sixi left, Liu Rumei opened her eyes and looked at the medicine for injuries on the table not far away. Her heart was full of chaos.

The night was getting darker, and the day had passed. The crescent moon on the horizon peeked out and spied on this world.

Liu Rumei had slept for an entire afternoon. She opened her eyes and looked at the boundless darkness. She could not help but sigh.

"Awake?" A low voice suddenly came, making her stunned. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Mo Liandi sitting not far away. He was holding a bowl of tea in his hand, and there was a smile in his eyes. His handsome and unparalleled face was shining brightly.

Liu Rumei's expression paused, and she got up. "Why is the Prince here?"

Mo Liandi's eyes were full of gentle light, and he said softly, "Is your body better?"

Liu Rumei said with a faint smile, "It is already alright. Thank you for your concern, Prince!"

Seeing Liu Rumei so polite and distant, Mo Liandi's eyes flashed with a trace of unhappiness. He could not help but step forward, and his pair of cold eyes looked at Liu Rumei brightly. "Have you thought it through?"

Liu Rumei looked at him with a puzzled face. "What?"

Mo Liandi slightly pursed his lips, looked at the cold woman in front of him, and said in a dull voice, "Be the Princess of this King."

He had originally thought that the intimate actions that day were enough to make her understand his heart. Seeing her shy face and hiding in the quilt, he had given her a few days to think. However, it seemed that he was being wishful thinking now!

Liu Rumei's heart was full of chaos. Looking at the handsome and unparalleled man in front of her, she smiled and said, "The Prince is joking. This little girl does not dare to climb so high!"

Looking at Liu Rumei like this, Mo Liandi's eyes were full of puzzlement. "Why? What is it about this King that makes you dissatisfied?"

She had not rejected his intimacy, so it meant that she also had him in her heart! "Liu Liu, be the Princess of this King, alright?"

Liu Rumei pursed her lips and took a step back. She said to Mo Liandi, "Does the Prince still remember what this little girl asked for when she first came to the Prince's Mansion?"

Mo Liandi frowned and thought for a moment. He could not help but look up at Liu Rumei's indifferent face. "Where is your home?"

He had also sent people to investigate, but he had found nothing. Liu Rumei was like a person who had appeared out of thin air to him, like a passing cloud!

Liu Rumei sighed in her heart. "My home is not here. The Prince is the one who is destined to be the Emperor. I will leave one day. The position of the Princess of the Prince should be given to a person who can accompany the Prince for a lifetime."

She did not belong here. One day, she would leave!

How could she not know Mo Liandi's thoughts? However, she could not...

Mo Liandi said coldly, "This King will not let you leave!"

Since she had entered the Prince's Mansion of the State of Peace and Security, she would not be allowed to leave! His things could only stay by his side.

Liu Rumei's expression paused again. "Is the Prince going to go back on his words?"

Mo Liandi pursed his lips and did not say a word. Liu Rumei only felt a headache. Forget it. Even if he did not want her to leave, she would still leave. Just like how she had come here unknowingly, she thought that when he ascended the throne, she would directly return. Whether he agreed or not was not that important.

Mo Liandi watched as the expression in Liu Rumei's eyes changed. He only felt extremely uneasy in his eyes. He said again, "Liu Liu, you remember this. This King will never let you go!"

Liu Rumei sighed and shook her head. "Whether the Prince agrees or not, I will leave. The Prince cannot stop me!"

Mo Liandi's expression paused. He was the Prince of the State of Peace and Security, and he had a high position and great power. Even Mo Yun would be in awe of him when he saw him. No matter who came here, they could not take her away. He had this confidence. "Then let's give it a try!"

After saying that, he did not say anything more. He turned around and left. He really did not want to hear those words about leaving from her mouth again.

Looking at Mo Liandi's back as he left, Liu Rumei's eyes were full of helplessness. She could not help but sigh deeply.

Sixi carried the food and entered the courtyard. She almost bumped into Mo Liandi! She was so scared that she was shocked!

"This maid pays her respects to the Prince!"

The corner of her eye swept across Mo Liandi's cold and frost-like face. Sixi could not help but tremble in her heart. She looked at Liu Rumei who was standing on the attic. The Prince could not have hit a wall, right?

After the person walked far away, Sixi then went up to the attic. Looking at Liu Rumei with a complicated face, she could not help but sigh. "Miss?"

Liu Rumei turned around and took the food in her hand and placed it on the table. There was a trace of a smile in her eyes. "What's wrong?"

Sixi hesitated for a moment, but she could not help but say what was in her heart. "Miss Liu, did you quarrel with the Prince?"

Liu Rumei raised her eyebrows. "How can you tell?"

"Just now, this maid saw the Prince with a gloomy face!" Sixi could not help but look at Liu Rumei with a calm expression. She said again, "Even when the army surrounded the city, the Prince did not change his expression. Only Miss Liu..."

Only Miss Liu could make the Prince break the rules again and again!

Liu Rumei's heart became even more complicated, but there was still a smile on her face. "Let's eat. I'm so hungry."

Sixi seeing this did not dare to ask any more questions. She served respectfully on the side.

Mo Liandi returned to his own courtyard with a cold face. He said coldly, "Bring the wine!"

Uncle Zhang slightly paused. He had seen the Prince smiling happily a few days ago, and he would go to the West Garden from time to time. Why today...

Just as he was thinking, Mo Liandi's cold voice came again. "Bring the wine!"

Uncle Zhang quickly took a jar of wine and sent it in front of Mo Liandi. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Prince, Miss Liu does not like strong liquor. This servant brought you a jar of fruit wine."

Mo Liandi pursed his lips and waved his hand at Uncle Zhang. "Go down."

Uncle Zhang's eyes were full of smiles, and he respectfully retreated!

Mo Liandi was looking at the fruit wine in a daze. He thought that he was also a person with a high position and great power, and he was extremely talented. How could he not catch her eye? Clearly, she also liked him. Why did she not want to be his Princess?

Thinking of this, he was even more depressed in his heart. Just as he was about to open the wine jar to drown his sorrows in wine, Uncle Zhang's voice came from outside the door. "Prince, something has happened in the dungeon."
