The Crown Prince spoke, and Huangfu Yao could not ignore it, even if it infuriated him. He had to temporarily accept it, even if it made his blood boil!

Hmph, he would reclaim it later!

Liu Shimei pulled Huangfu Lingyao back to their seats, completely unaffected by the earlier incident, continuing to enjoy the feast.

Huangfu He couldn’t see the people over there, and his mood became even more gloomy.

The poetry gathering was his event. He couldn’t be capricious and leave at this moment, so he forced a smile and continued to preside over the scene, saying, “Someone, go and see if anyone has presented their recently composed poems and songs?”

In front of the prince, the opportunity to show off naturally led to eager competition among the participants.

Thinking back, Liu Shimei had made a name for herself at the Peony Banquet, catching the Crown Prince’s eye and later becoming the designated Crown Princess.

Although there were mistakes along the way, this move always worked. Wasn’t it worth learning from?

Other people’s affairs had nothing to do with Liu Shimei. After sitting back down, she continued to accept her silly puppy’s enthusiastic offerings.

“Wife, this crystal trotter is delicious! You’re too thin, eat more meat to gain some weight!”

Previously defended by his wife, this silly dog overflowed with affection, as warm as a midsummer day. He wished he could have everything good he possessed just for her!

Liu Shimei helplessly said, “I can’t afford to gain weight at my age. Otherwise, if I get fat later, it might be uncontrollable.”

Joking aside, it’s best for a young girl to stay slender. After she gets married and becomes a mother…

Having children will change her body shape; a woman’s frame will naturally expand, and she will become a bit more plump.

If she gained weight now, it would be out of control later!

“How could that happen?” Huangfu Lingyao glanced at her chest with a hint of regret.

But he couldn’t reveal the truth that ‘my wife’s chest is a bit small’, so he could only turn to Shu Yutong beside him and ask, “Little Water Bucket, don’t you think your master is too thin? Her body is so frail that a gust of wind could blow her away. Are you willing?”

Shu Yutong instinctively shook her head, “Not willing!”

Of course, she wouldn’t want that. Where would she find such a good master if the wind blew her away?

But when met with Liu Shimei’s gaze, the survival instinct kicked in, and the little prodigy immediately denied, “But Master is right! She said she doesn’t need to gain weight, and she really doesn’t need to!”

Huangfu Lingyao looked at her coolly, as if saying: coward!

Shu Yutong gave him a look as if saying: if you have the guts, then go ahead and say what you want to say!

Huangfu Lingyao shrank his neck.

Okay, he didn’t have the guts!

So, when faced with Liu Shimei’s gaze again, he awkwardly smiled and said, “I was wrong, Wife!”

Survival instinct at its peak!

“Wrong about what?” Liu Shimei raised an eyebrow in response.

Huangfu Lingyao’s smiling face froze, pondered for a long time, but couldn’t figure out where he went wrong!

He wanted his wife to gain some weight, which concerned his post-marriage benefits. Was there anything wrong with that?

No!

But if his wife said he was wrong, even if he wasn’t, he had to be wrong!

While he was racking his brains to figure out ‘where he went wrong’, behind him, completely blocked by his tall figure, Shu Yutong whispered, “Wrong in wishing for Wife to turn into a pig just because I like pigs!”

Huangfu Lingyao blurted out, “Wrong in wishing…”

He suddenly bit his tongue!

No, this little devil tricked him!

He awkwardly changed it to, “Wrong in not shouldering the responsibility for imposing my preferences on Wife!”

“Fine, I’ll let it go,” Liu Shimei snorted.

It was just pretending to be angry, just putting on a show.

It wasn’t a matter of principle; teasing him was just a romantic interest between the two.

After the family of three finished eating, they sneaked out of the Yuebin Pavilion and went for a walk by the river.

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Yao followed them from behind!
