Chapter 5
Chapter 5 — At That Flower Feast, I Chose a New Husband
I was stunned, paused for a moment, then obediently continued reading. He questioned me for half an hour, until at the end my mouth was dry and my tongue was bitter, so I had to ask Hua Cat to stop.
“Tieu Dao is naturally intelligent.” The Little Prince expressed:
“I almost considered the pearl to be like a pebble.”
Every time he calls me "Tieu Dao", I feel a tingling feeling in the bottom of my heart. I pursed my lips and asked softly:
“So tomorrow… can we go to An Hoa Duong for treatment?”
"Of course." Little Prince looked at me for a long time, smiled and said:
“It's just… I'm afraid I have to let my royal concubine disguise herself a bit.”
“Or…” He gently touched the tip of my nose, “Are you my sister?”
“So, little sister Tieu Dao, will you go to An Hoa Duong with your brother tomorrow?”
A wave of dizziness suddenly came over me, I unconsciously looked at that line of text, only to see the full screen: "Yo yo yo~" 【Little sister Dao~】 【My crown princess~】 【Let's go to An Hoa Duong with brother~】 【Bastard, dare to tease a high school girl in her youth like that.】 【Today is today. Sister, tomorrow I'll probably hug you to bed.】 Oh my god... I closed my eyes — why am I even more dizzy.

An Hoa Duong is far different from ordinary medical clinics, not only in the layout and examination process, but also in the unheard of rules set by the Little County King. For example — when diagnosing and treating, you must wear a white coat; For example — every day must be completely disinfected; For example, every ten days there will be a regular summary conference. When he was in An Hoa Duong, the Little Prince was extremely strict and cold, rarely seeing a smile. No matter how old or experienced the medical officers were, if they made a mistake, he would scold them without mercy. As for me - just under half a month of diagnosis, I have become the only exception. For nothing else, just because I am the one who makes the most mistakes, but you have never said a harsh word to me. Theory from books is ultimately still shallow, I am still young, and clinical practice is still clumsy. The Little Prince immediately kept me by his side, whether it was hope, writing, questioning, setting or accumulating many years of medical experience - he did not hold back anything, teaching wholeheartedly. Never before have we lived so fully. Like a lotus sleeping deep at the bottom of the water, both yearning and joyful, open to receive all watering. From An Hoa Duong back to the palace, the lights in Thinh Thuy Hien were as bright as day. The Little Prince and I sat behind a large desk. He patiently explained each case of the day to me. The candlelight swayed and the gentle scent of medicinal herbs spread. I held the pen and was about to speak when I suddenly raised my eyes - the words were stuck in my throat. The Little Prince wore moon-white robes, his collar was open to reveal his thin shoulders and collarbone, his long hair was not tied, the ends of his hair were still damp, he propped his head up and fell asleep. Beneath his eyes were dark spots of fatigue, his chest rising and falling with steady breathing. His face, which was originally cold and unapproachable, now became strangely gentle. Something seemed to hit my ears hard. As if under a spell, I suddenly leaned closer, and in the moment our breaths mingled - the Little Prince suddenly opened his eyes. I was frightened and leaned back, almost falling over. At that moment, my waist was hugged tightly by his arms, and I fell straight into the man's arms. The warmth from his body penetrated through my clothes, dyeing my face red. Looking up, I only saw the familiar words passing by: 【I'm dying of laughter, little idiot Dao Dao tried to sneak a kiss but was discovered.】 【So cute, this dog is so good at acting, Tieu Dao is still so young.】 I moaned softly, burying my face in the crook of his neck as if wanting to hide.
“It's okay, it's okay.” King Tieu quickly patted his back and comforted him: "You scared Tieu Dao, right?"
The gentler he was, the more embarrassed I was, the less I dared to raise my face. His voice carried a smile, proactively finding the stairs for me:
"Tired? Can I take you back to Phu Van courtyard?"
I quickly nodded. That night, the moonlight was so gentle it melted into the lake surface. I was held firmly in the arms of the Little County King and taken back to Phu Van courtyard. Lying in bed, my mind was spinning, my eyes were closed, I could only hear my heart beating like a drum. Confused, rushed, emotions are running high, even a few deep breaths cannot calm them down. In that moment of helplessness, I suppressed the bitterness in my heart - the only thought that echoed in my mind was: The sound of my heart cannot bother the Little Prince.

After Mid-Autumn Festival, the Little Prince moved to live at Phu Van hospital. The princess was delighted, the people in Phu Van courtyard were even more delighted, only I was still hesitant and hesitantly asked:
“… So, is it okay?”
The Little Prince was arranging medical records for me at that time. Hearing that, he stopped, used the tip of his pen to gently dab the tip of my nose, and smiled and asked:
"What's wrong? Little sister Dao doesn't want me to move in?"
I frowned, reached out, grabbed the pen, and said softly:
“I'm just afraid it will inconvenience the Crown Prince.”
"It's not inconvenient at all. Before, I didn't go to Phu Van hospital just because my activities and hers weren't on the same schedule."
Tieu District King's tone was calm, "I was afraid of bothering you when I returned, so I stayed at Thinh Thuy Hien." I couldn't help but laugh. The Little Prince patted my head and said softly:
“Why do you still call me the Crown Prince?”
My heart suddenly jumped, and as I raised my head, I met his smiling eyes, and the pounding sound once again echoed in my ears. I silently took a step back, as if afraid of disturbing him, and asked in a low voice:
“… So what should we call it?”
The familiar mysterious text passed by again: 【Called... husband~】 【No no, according to the times it must be... husband~】 【Brother Duan~】 I quickly bowed my head, under the pretense of being polite, I mumbled:
“Rules cannot be broken.”
The Little Prince looked at me for a long time, until I was about to lose my composure when he suddenly burst out laughing, without saying anything more, pulled out a medical record:
"Look at this. This is the birth that An Hoa Duong received last year. The pregnant woman had a narrow pelvis, and eventually bled to death."
