Chapter 448.1: kept entangled

Su Xi-ers heart had been so touched that it almost melted into a pool of water by Pei Qianhaos sincere affection, and she pushed her body against him as her arms cupped his face. Following his lead, her tongue gradually entered his mouth and entangled with his during their kiss.

Her soft body and feminine fragrance wafted through Pei Qianhaos nose and settled in his heart. His breathing hitched as his hand at her waist prepared to move down. It was unclear how much time had pa.s.sed before Pei Qianhao suddenly returned to his senses.

I must quickly control myself; nows not the time.

Hence, he immediately let go of her and smiled. Princess Consort, why are you so proactive today?

Su Xi-er had yet to come back to her senses, and her eyes were still misty as she absentmindedly replied with a dreamy affirmative.

Her soft moan caused Pei Qianhaos eyes to darken.

Little bewitching fairy, shes getting better at tempting me. Its unfortunate that now is really not the time, or else I would have brought her back to the residence to finish what weve started.

In contrast to the tranquil atmosphere inside the private room, it was very lively outside the restaurant.

After Zhen Yu left, she randomly looked around, her mind full of her Brother Hu.

Brother Hu, where are you? Do you know that theres someone who looks a lot like you? However, he doesnt have a mole on his waist, and he has already married a wife who he dotes on enough to make others envious.

Brother Hu, I dont believe that you have let me down. Since you didnt come to look for me, Ill come to you. Even if I have to travel to the ends of the earth and search for you until I die of old age, I still wont give up.

Determination flickered in Zhen Yus eyes, her mentality improving as she put the setbacks that she had encountered behind her.

She arrived at a steamed bun[1] store and planned to ask if they were open to hiring a female worker. Before she could enter, however, she heard some gossip coming from inside.

The Third Imperial Prince has just left the capital, and the Second Imperial Prince is returning. To be able to get the Second Imperial Prince to return just like that after hes been away for so long Tsk, Prince Hao really is powerful.

Exactly! I just saw the horse carriage dedicated to receiving the Second Imperial Prince driving past. I suppose that Consort Dowager Guo must be elated.

Men should treat Prince Hao as their role modelcontrolling the court, intimidating the other countries, and doting on his wife.

Zhen Yu heard the familiar words Prince Hao once again.

The person theyre discussing is the one I met in the restaurant; the person who looks resembles Brother Hu a lot.

Miss, do you want some steamed buns? The hawker politely asked with a smile.

Zhen Yu nodded. I want two vegetable steamed buns[2]. How many copper coins do they cost?

Two coins. The hawker took out a piece of yellow paper and wrapped two vegetable steamed buns before pa.s.sing them to her.

Zhen Yu then took out two coins from her purse and handed them to him. Young man, does the store need female workers?

Miss, youre not someone from the capital, right?

Zhen Yu nodded. I came from a desolate rural village. Im here to look for my family, so I plan to find some odd jobs.

Miss, you dont understand our trade. All of the stores in the capital try to retain stable staff, and thus, never hire female workers who are looking for odd jobs. You either work here for a few years, or you dont stay in the capital at all. The hawker explained to her seriously.

This woman looks decent; her eyes are large and her skin is rosy. If she continues staying outside, Im afraid that she may run into a predator.

Zhen Yu panicked. What should I do? I cant stay for too long. If I cant find my family here, Ill have to go somewhere else.
