Chapter 7 — I Take the Crown Prince to Be My Bride

After many days of not communicating, the young man seemed more quiet than before, his lips were slightly white and dry, his eyes looked at me with dark, unclear emotions. But it is true that the five senses have developed much more. His figure is taller, his shoulders are broader, and his temperament is more calm. I smiled at him friendly and asked in surprise:

"What's wrong? Are you looking for me for something?"

Ta Lan Cam took a few deep breaths, hesitated for a long time, then dryly spoke:

“Cam Trieu, are we still friends?”

I hesitated for a moment, then remembered the lotus leaf beggar's chicken that Auntie Ngoc made for me last night. The meat is soft and succulent, it melts in your mouth. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. After a while, I still reluctantly nodded: "Maybe it counts..." For some reason, after Ta Lan Cam heard this sentence, it was as if he had picked up a lost treasure. His eyes suddenly brightened and his face looked a lot more rosy. He was just about to open his mouth to say something, but suddenly he saw the necklace of Trieu Duong Ngu Phuong around my neck. In an instant, Ta Lan Cam's face turned pale. I watched his face turn from pink to white and then green again. Silently exclaiming, Ta Lan Cam didn't know where he learned the "face-changing" magic of Xuyen Drama. About to ask. Ta Lan Cam moved one step faster, without warning he pressed his shoulder tightly, his expression was gloomy and stubborn, and he said meaningfully:

"You were originally my wife!"

I was startled and lost my expression: "What nonsense are you talking about!" Ta Lan Cam just stubbornly stared at me, his eyes cold and gloomy. Suddenly, he leaned closer, without saying a word, trying to press his lips close to mine. I was extremely scared. Immediately swung his hand and gave him a slap, then used force to push him to the ground. After that, I didn't even look back and ran. I was both scared and surprised, as if I had seen a ghost. While running, I was a bit lost, I wasn't careful, and crashed into the chest of the Crown Prince who was waiting for me outside the door. The Crown Prince was staggered by me, frowned and asked:

"What's wrong? What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

I'm breathing heavily, my soul is lost:

“He, he wants to kiss me!”

The Crown Prince immediately understood, his eyes instantly cold and terrifying. He silently caressed my back, patiently comforting me. A moment later, he suddenly burst out laughing.

“Oh, so that's it.”

He smiled very beautifully, his peach blossom eyes sparkled, and the tear mole at the corner of his eye also looked very attractive. But somehow. I felt a cold chill down my spine, my goosebumps rising.

The next day, at the hunting ground. Ta Lan Cam's face was somehow bruised in several places. It's like being beaten by someone. The corner of the Crown Prince's mouth, for some reason, was slightly red and swollen. Ta Lan Cam smiled apologetically at me: "Sorry, Cam Trieu, yesterday I was suddenly confused and offended you." I was a little confused and turned away, not paying attention to him. To ensure fairness, the Holy King required children and grandchildren participating in hunting to choose bows and arrows that were distributed simultaneously. Ta Lan Cam just chose a bow and arrow, started "creating an imaginary enemy" and then hinted:

"Cam Trieu, choosing a bow and arrow is as important as choosing a man. If it's too old, it can't be used, it's all loose; and the type of person who lowers himself to work on the exterior and is a third party to vandalism is even more morally degenerate..."

“Craving for someone else's wife, share ripping off other people's marital feelings, a complete bastard from beginning to end!”

My left ear goes to my right ear, so I don't have time to care about him at all. Because the pitiful Crown Prince begged me to apply medicine to the corner of his mouth. I felt sorry for him, took the ointment, applied it, and blew it for him. Actually, the wound is only minor. It's only been half a day and the ointment has already been applied four or five times. So thick that it's shiny and reflective. I worriedly said: "You're injured, maybe don't participate in the competition anymore." The Crown Prince collapsed into my arms, his voice whining:

“No, how can I not go? I can't make you lose face."

Ta Lan Cam: “…” Ta Lan Cam gritted his teeth and walked away.

The Crown Prince still makes me lose face. Others rubbed their hands eagerly, hunted a lot of prey, and had to ask servants to help move it. The Crown Prince stood there with empty hands, like an innocent person. I lowered my voice, unfortunately iron cannot become steel:

“Why didn't you say anything sooner? Knowing that you wouldn't be able to hunt, I spent money to buy all their prey!"

The prince felt sorry for himself and groaned. I don't have the heart to scold him anymore. I clicked my tongue, deliberately teaching with a stern face: "Okay, okay, pay attention next time."

“Remember, anything that money can solve is not a big deal to you!”

The Crown Prince jumped into my arms, rubbing and wriggling like a quiche. The results of the competition were announced, when the Saint gave rewards to everyone. Ta Lan Cam hunted the most animals. The saint asked him what he wanted to reward first. Ta Lan Cam spoke with great enthusiasm: "I want to ask for a favor for Miss Ly. I heard that among the reward items is a necklace of the Eight Treasures Hong Tho."

"Cam Trieu has the rabbit as her star, and likes little rabbits the most. This reward is the most suitable for her."

As soon as the words ended, the space was as quiet as a sheet of paper. Everyone was very attentive and turned to look at me and the Crown Prince. Under countless teasing eyes, I suddenly became restless, lowered my voice, and softly asked the Crown Prince:

"His things, do you think I should take them?"

The Crown Prince glanced at me and calmly opened his mouth:

"It's okay, if the temple doesn't take it, it's a waste."

The Crown Prince suddenly smiled brightly, stood up, and walked closer:

“My father and I also think this idea is great, so how about letting me personally wear it for Miss Ly.”

The saint spread his hands, already used to this:

“It's okay if you're satisfied.”

Just like that, the Crown Prince personally put on me the bracelet that Ta Lan Cam brought back to give me. What a strange feeling. I'm a bit unhappy. The Crown Prince out of nowhere appeared a lovely little gray rabbit to comfort me. Just look and you'll know the hare was caught in the wild. I suddenly realized: "Oh, just now you went to catch live rabbits, you didn't bother hunting at all."
