Chapter 14 Bitter Porridge
When I woke up, I saw Zhao Yan sitting aside, looking at the booklet in his hand.
He was not wearing an outer robe, his posture very casual.
He did not look like someone who had just been seriously injured.
I suddenly remembered that in the previous life, right after we got married, he was reluctant to disturb my peaceful sleep, so he would sit beside me like this, reading a book while waiting for me to wake up.
Seeing me awake, he said.
"Are you hungry?"
I was about to shake my head when my stomach growled first.
Zhao Yan chuckled.
He had someone bring in a bowl of porridge.
On the first bite, I tasted that this was Zhao Yan's handiwork.
Because it was burnt.
And too much sugar was added.
After getting married in the previous life, the first time he made porridge for me, it was this taste.
I did not continue eating.
I put the bowl aside.
I told him.
I wanted to leave.
A trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he still nodded, "Mm."
As I turned to leave, he suddenly called me.
"Chu Bingzhi."
I turned back.
He looked at me, with confusion and puzzlement in his gaze.
"This Prince was so seriously injured, but from waking up until now, you have not asked a single question."
"And that day in the hunting ground..."
"You hate This Prince." He said decisively.
For the first time in front of me, he showed an expression as innocent as a child's.
"Why?"
"This Prince has clearly never done anything to wrong you..."
At this moment, I suddenly felt very sad.
Yes, actually, I had always wanted to ask the Zhao Yan from the previous life.
Why was this?
The Zhao Yan in front of me clearly liked me so much, even knowing I was a man, he had saved me from danger several times. How did the one from the previous life change his heart so easily later?
But in the end, we both could not answer each other's question.
I said, "Your Highness is overthinking."
