The black, deep-as-a-trench eyes of Baili Hongzhuang shimmered with a radiant light, confirming her expectations that Xuanyuan Huan didn't recognize her identity!
Within a month's time, her appearance had undergone significant changes.
She had always been mistreated in the General's Manor, and since her broken engagement, she had been even more disregarded. The food brought by the servants deteriorated day by day, and coupled with her melancholy, her complexion grew sallow, her figure became emaciated, and she looked extremely ugly.
After a month of cultivation, her complexion finally became full, and her temperament and aura were completely different from before. Even Baili Yuyan would find it difficult to confirm that she was Baili Hongzhuang.
Walking quickly to the side of Dibei Chen, the black and white furballs had been complaining to her non-stop. Unexpectedly, on the first day out, Baili Hongzhuang had used them as cushions!
"Young master, my cushions saved you. Shouldn't you..."
Before Baili Hongzhuang could finish speaking, the golden figure with its back facing her suddenly turned around, and a handsome face appeared before her.
At that moment, Baili Hongzhuang's words abruptly stopped. Even though she had already heard about the unparalleled beauty of Prince Chen, she still felt a sense of astonishment when seeing him.
The man's features were exquisitely handsome, with his eyebrows, eyes, lips, and nose all exuding extreme refinement. His eyes shimmered with a light as clear and radiant as moonlight.
A warm and charming smile blossomed on his unparalleled face, handsome like a deity, leaving an unforgettable impression.
Clad in a golden brocade robe, he exuded nobility and brilliance. His aura alone surpassed that of Xuanyuan Huan and the others.
"Young lady, thank you for the cushion."
A warm and pleasant voice came forth as Dibei Chen gazed at Baili Hongzhuang with a faint smile. The deep and bright eyes, black as obsidian, also revealed a touch of astonishment.
Baili Hongzhuang quickly regained her senses. Even though Dibei Chen seemed not as flustered as she had expected, she realized that she had underestimated him.
Emerald-like fingers stretched out, and a bright and cunning smile appeared on Baili Hongzhuang's face. "Young master, my cushion saved you after all. Shouldn't you give me some reward? One hundred gold coins!"
Upon hearing this, a trace of cunning also surfaced in the depths of Dibei Chen's eyes. However, his handsome face remained serious. "Please help me with a favor."
Baili Hongzhuang was puzzled. What favor could this guy possibly need her help with?
In the next moment, to Baili Hongzhuang's astonishment, Dibei Chen laid flat on the ground and said, "Miss, you can drop on me again. I'll be your cushion when I come down, and we'll be even."
Baili Hongzhuang's mouth twitched. Who would jump down from the third floor for no reason!
This guy had a handsome and righteous appearance but shamelessly resorted to such means!
"At least you're a prince. Don't tell me you want to dodge your debt?" Baili Hongzhuang stared at Dibei Chen, thinking of taking this opportunity to get some gold coins from him. She didn't expect him to be so stingy and come up with such an shameless idea.
Yes! Shameless!
"I'm not the type to dodge debts!" Dibei Chen declared firmly.
Baili Huangzhuang's expression relaxed a bit, but Dibei Chen's following words caused her to have an impulsive urge to stomp her foot.
"But... I don't have anything valuable to offer..." Dibei Chen's face turned bitter as he pondered, "Should I... repay you with my body?"
"Even though I may not be much, I still have my own abilities," Baili Huangzhuang felt her temples throbbing. On the other hand, Dibei Chen bashfully lowered his handsome face, resembling a blushing bride on her wedding night. Ah!
