Chapter 82: Discovering He Was Faking It
“My. Flowers!”
Su Miantang gritted her teeth, one word at a time.
The two men looked down at the messy grass and flowers at their feet: “…”
“You two!”
“Come here and stand against the wall!”
She was fuming. Without even driving her pheromones, she made the two top-combat-power males walk over obediently. However, even as they came over, they remained irreconcilable, one choosing the east-facing wall and the other the west-facing one.
“…”
Su Miantang looked speechlessly at the gloomy Crown Prince and then at the mocking Admiral. She decided to discipline them one by one.
She reached out and pointed at the former.
“Follow me.”
Asilanās sharp brows instantly furrowed when he heard that.
Susu, why did you choose him first?
He was about to speak when he was sternly warned by the girl, who was holding a broken stem of a Variegated Butterfly Orchid. “You, stay right there. Don’t move. Iāll settle the score with you when I get back!”
Seeing this, the manās thin lips couldn’t help but curl up in pleasure.
It turned out Master was so angry because the Butterfly Orchid he had planted with her was ruined.
He was indeed the one she cared about most.
Su Miantang didn’t stop until she reached the swimming pool.
Jun Chengyin, as if belatedly realizing his mistake, slightly lowered his golden head. He had never seen Tangtang with such a stern expression. She must be very angry…
Just as he thought he was about to be punished, the girl rubbed his head and then touched his face. Her long, slender, and delicate fingers slid down his neck, seemingly wanting to pull open his collar.
He trembled all over. Whether from surprise or excitement, his skin turned hot. He stood motionless, anticipating her next move.
Why wasn’t Tangtang punishing him? Was she rewarding him instead?
“Youāre not hurt, are you?”
The girlās movements suddenly stopped.
She checked carefully and found nothing wrong with him, so she withdrew her hand.
Jun Chengyinās face froze for a moment, and then a wave of sweetness seeped into his heart.
He had done something wrong, yet Tangtang didn’t blame him. Instead, she was very concerned.
“No.”
They hadn’t really started fighting before she arrived.
“Jun Chengyin.”
Su Miantang was about to put on a serious face when she met his pair of slightly swaying, deep blue, double pupils. “Tangtang, why don’t you call me Big Golden Retriever anymore?”
“…”
“Big Golden Retriever” was the nickname she gave him when she was trying to tame him.
Now that he had become the Crown Prince…
“Is it still okay?”
“Yes, I like it very much.”
“Then Iāll call you that in private from now on.”
It would be a bit too absurd for others to hear her calling the Crown Prince of the nation a “Big Golden Retriever.”
“Big Golden Retriever, why were you fighting with Lanlan?”
When Jun Chengyin heard Asilan’s name, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, as if some bad memory had been triggered.
“Tangtang, during those days when you weren’t in the palace, were you kidnapped by him?”
Seeing that familiar expressionāthe one he had the day his spirit collapsed and he carried her into the caveāSu Miantang suddenly realized something…
So, the reason his condition plummeted and his spirit completely collapsed was because she had left the palace? He thought she had deceived him and no longer wanted to treat him?
The last trace of trust in humans in his heart had been erased, leading him to a dead end.
“Iām sorry.”
“Back then, I just wanted to go home for a bit and return soon.”
“But I didn’t expect Lanlan to transform back into a human. Not only did he lose his memory, but he also had misunderstandings about me.”
“I was afraid of his powerful combat strength and his tendency to get jealous. I was afraid that if I mentioned you forcefully, I would be in danger or even implicate you. That’s why I didn’t return to the palace in time.”
“However, after testing him twice later, I found he had no ill intent, so I hurried back.”
“I didn’t expect it would cause your spirit to collapse.”
“Is that true?”
Hearing this, Jun Chengyinās eyes shook, and his heart pounded like thunder for a moment.
His imperial sister had indeed lied to him!
Tangtang hadn’t deceived him, hadn’t abandoned him, and certainly hadn’t escaped the planet with someone else. She always had him in her heart!
“Of course itās true… Nn~”
Before Su Miantang could finish her sentence, she was hugged tightly by him. While hugging her, he even spun her around. His clear and hearty laugh was so joyful that it caused ripples in the swimming pool.
“Tangtang.”
“Tangtang!”
“Tangtang…”
He repeatedly called her name, venting the emotions that were so full they were about to overflow.
He really, really liked herāso much that he didn’t know what to do.
Su Miantang was amused by his silly behavior and reached out to ruffle his golden hair. “Big Golden Retriever, do you forgive me?”
“I…”
He had never blamed her.
His spiritual collapse was simply because he missed her too muchāso much that he was going crazy.
“Itās all my fault for not believing you.”
Too silly, right?
He can even blame himself for this?
She waved from a distance and asked Xiao Mi to bring over the desserts.
“Here.”
“This is the red velvet muffin I made specifically for you. Treat it as compensation. Try it.”
Su Miantang tore open the paper liner at the bottom and handed it to him.
Tasting the cake personally made by his beloved little female, Jun Chengyin was so excited that he transformed back into his beast form on the spot.
Seeing him suddenly turn back into a big lion, Su Miantangās eyes lit up.
She hadn’t seen it for several days, and her hands happened to be a bit itchy; she wanted to pet him.
“Big Golden Retriever, is the muffin good?”
Mm-mm-mm!
The male lion nodded vigorously.
It was even better than marshmallows!
“If itās good, shouldn’t you pay a little fee?”
What did she want?
He could give her the entire Imperial family!
“I want to… touch you.”
Ah?
At this time?
Usually, he would be impatient to hear this, but right now his expression was a bit flustered. However…
He was a bit excited.
Ignoring his refusal, Su Miantang went up and rubbed his huge, majestic lion head, the ring of fluffy and thick golden mane around his neck, his magnificent waist, and his softest belly.
The male lion was so comfortable from her rubbing that he narrowed his eyes, limbs in the air. He felt as if he were floating. Then… Su Miantang discovered a change under his belly.
She was so startled that she suddenly withdrew her hand. Her face turned crimson as she scrambled up and ran away. While running, she strongly condemned him, “Big Golden Retriever, you stinky pervert!”
Eh?
The male lion looked down.
“Roarā”
Tangtang, let me explain!
I… I didn’t mean to!
In the garden, inside a thick tree, a lark curiously poked its head out, watching this lively scene.
Su Miantang ran to the bathroom like the wind. She washed her hands and then her face. Only after bringing down the scalding temperature and the flush on her face did she remember that Lanlan was still waiting for her in the garden.
She picked up a piece of red velvet soufflƩ and walked over. From a distance, she saw him and was about to call him when she saw him irritably pinching a butterfly on his high nose, muttering to himself.
“Why does Master like your wings? They aren’t even as good-looking as mine.”
“?”
Her footsteps suddenly froze.
