Chapter 97 Why are you jealous?
She tapped the tip of his nose with her finger and led him to the other side.
Their eyes kept glancing around, checking if anyone else was secretly plotting against them.
After looking around, I realized they were all ordinary people.
The dangerous aura from before has disappeared. It seems that perhaps they really couldn't stand it anymore, which is why they suddenly made their move.
She turned her head and smiled, "It's okay, let's continue shopping."
He nodded and followed behind her, but he never let his guard down for a moment, fearing that the same accident as before might happen again.
Until they reached the street lined with jewelry stores.
Upon entering, one feels surrounded by the dazzling light refracted by various gemstones, an atmosphere of unparalleled magnificence.
Perhaps girls are naturally drawn to shiny things, and Zhongli Yueluo stopped in her tracks because of this.
They never carefully selected the beaded jewelry; it was all made and given to them by people in the palace.
She looked up at him, her eyes full of expectation, and Su Fengjun's expression softened as the two went inside.
These shopkeepers were all very enthusiastic, and from the very first shop, they kept trying to pull them into their own shops.
"Oh my, this young man is quite handsome! We have a belt and hair ornament that would be perfect for you."
"Oh, this young lady is so beautiful and delicate. With our hair ornaments, she would look as beautiful as a princess."
The shopkeepers started a tug-of-war, while the waiters just stood by with their trays, not even getting a chance to speak.
Several shopkeepers tried to pull Zhongli Yueluo away, but Su Fengjun looked at them coldly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
In an instant, they all chickened out and became extremely polite.
He simply stood there and said, "Young lady, why not choose a hair ornament for your husband?"
Zhongli Yueluo revealed two dimples in a kind smile: "Okay, what style would suit him? Shopkeeper, could you recommend one?"
Seeing how easy she was to talk to, the waiter, carrying the tray, said, "Take a look at the white jade crown..."
Then, when I looked up, I saw his cold, indifferent face.
He was dressed entirely in black, and didn't finish his sentence.
Holding a rather simple silver hat adorned with delicate gemstones, he said, "This one is more suitable."
Zhongli Yueluo asked, "Feng Jun, do you like it?"
He didn't know how to answer. He didn't care about these things; he could tie his hair up with just a strip of cloth.
Zhongli Yueluo picked it up and compared it to herself: "It looks good, I'll wear it now." She then waved her hand and paid the bill.
The moment she took out the money, Su Fengjun's face darkened.
She didn't understand why; how could a girl have to pay for a hair ornament!
As they walked out, Zhongli Yueluo asked, "Why are you unhappy?"
"I have money!" came the indifferent reply.
Zhongli Yueluo laughed heartily, "This is different from the one I gave you."
He was getting angry and finally asked, "Isn't it the same? Were you like this with Yan Shaojun yesterday?"
"Let's also write marriage plaques for him and buy him things. Who should the Mountain and River Demon God protect!"
Zhongli Yueluo frowned. She had indeed been shopping with Yan Ruoyu, but she hadn't done any of those things.
Seeing that Zhongli Yueluo remained silent, she took it as a tacit agreement, and a sudden pang of bitterness welled up in her heart.
His hands clenched unconsciously, his face remained calm, and his tone even carried a hint of detachment.
"Princess, it was I... who overstepped my bounds."
Seeing his jealous expression, Zhongli Yueluo wanted to laugh, but she held it in and lightly touched his furrowed brows with her finger.
His body stiffened slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he stopped himself, letting her hand rest on his forehead.
"No, there's nothing between us." Her eyes were very sincere, and her voice was very soft, trying to reassure him.
Although he was still somewhat bothered, her explanation softened his expression, and he decided to let it go.
Seeing that he still had doubts, Zhongli Yueluo pointed to her finger and swore to the heavens.
"If I lie to you, may I die a terrible death, sinking to the bottom of the Heartless River without a complete corpse."
He covered her mouth with his hand, his eyes filled with guilt.
It seemed that she said those words, "Princess, you mustn't say it!" because he suspected her.
“Only those who are afraid dare not speak. I dare to say this because I have never actually done it.”
She gently took his hand and rubbed her face against his palm twice.
His gaze softened, but his face remained cold.
He looked around again, and a gold-inlaid ruby hairpin immediately caught his eye.
If this princess wore it, she would look absolutely stunning.
These shopkeepers were all shrewd people; they just glanced at him coldly.
But there was at least one percent of enthusiasm, and the ruby hairpin was immediately presented to him.
His lips moved slightly, and his fingers traced the hairpin. The texture was very delicate, not at all like a rough product.
"Is this a gift for your wife, sir? This hairpin is no ordinary hairpin."
"This gemstone also contains storage space; it can hold at least ten square meters of stuff."
He hadn't expected that this ruby hairpin would actually be a magical artifact. He frowned and asked, "Does it have a name?"
"Oh my, this ruby hairpin has quite a name, it's called Red Moon Falling."
"It has the same pronunciation as the name of the current second princess, but uses different characters."
Upon hearing this, he picked up the hairpin and glanced at Zhongli Yueluo.
After saying that, Zhongli Yuelu looked at the other trays, holding a black belt in her hand.
She sensed him looking at her, turned around to look at him, and saw him walking to her side with the hairpin in his hand.
He tried to remove the pearl hairpin from her head, but she grabbed his hand.
"This was given to me by Yu Huan, so I can't take it off. How about I wear it in the bun next to my head?"
His hand paused slightly. Luckily, it was He Yuhuan who gave it to him, not someone else, otherwise he would have been devastated.
He placed the "Red Moon Falls" ornament to the side, which was particularly touching.
For the first time, his eyes crinkled, the corners of his mouth curved into a beautiful arc, and his voice was gentle: "It suits the princess very well."
The shopkeeper and waiter next to them didn't hear clearly how they addressed each other.
Just seeing her wearing it on her head, it was indeed dazzling, and everyone kept praising how beautiful it looked.
This time, Su Fengjun didn't even wait for Zhongli Yueluo to pay; he took out his money pouch and bought the hairpin.
I also packed up the belts she had chosen.
Zhongli Yueluo looked at herself in the bronze mirror from left to right and thought it looked beautiful.
A light touch of the finger connects to the space inside, but it seems that it can only be used to place things, not for people to enter.
"Feng Jun, am I pretty? I like it so much." She flashed a row of white teeth, had deep dimples, and her eyes sparkled.
He twitched his fingers, fiddling with his sleeve: "The princess looks beautiful no matter what."
She left satisfied, took his hand, twirled around, and smiled innocently. Su Fengjun looked at her, his heart fluttering.
Soon, evening arrived, and the streetlights came on. Zhongli Yueluo, tired from walking, leaned on his shoulder and sat on a stone bench by the street.
He dared not move his hand, afraid of disturbing her, while she yawned wearily.
Thinking about how she would be wearing such elaborate clothes and a heavy crown again, she sighed softly.
