Oops, the male villain looked at me with affection in his eyes

Ning Yu paused after hearing this, and thought to herself, I don't want to either, but the task has been accepted, Xiao Tongtong is eager for the next task, and he has to do it sooner or later.

Thinking about the unused pills in her hand, Ning Yu showed a confident smile to Cheng Ruhua:

"It's okay, I'm just curious about the situation in the palace."

King Jing'an has his own residence outside the palace. Due to his special status, he has never been on good terms with officials in the capital, and few people come to visit him.

Therefore, many people privately regard his mansion as a taboo, and are unwilling to go or mention it.

Cheng Ruhua's face became serious and she said slowly: "Ning Yu, please listen to my sister's advice. The Prince Jing'an Mansion is full of dangers and is not something someone like you can go to."

The two of them were standing on the street talking, and they didn't notice a gorgeous soft sedan slowly walking down the street.

The soft sedan quietly stopped not far from the tofu stall, just like every time before.

The people inside were hiding in the sedan, looking deeply at the two people who seemed to be intimate outside the sedan.

Shen Lance was imprisoned for two days. After being released, he couldn't wait to see Cheng Ruhua. Unexpectedly, he saw Ning Xiaodan and Ruhua talking intimately and laughing.

The bright smile on Cheng Ruhua's face stung his eyes, and he dropped his hands on his knees and clenched his fingers into fists.

No one knows that Cheng Ruhua has been Shen Lance's playmate since childhood and the salvation in his heart.

When I was a child, my mother-in-law was the most inconspicuous concubine in the prince's east palace. The most indispensable thing in the east palace was beauties. My father, who was still the prince at that time, would not come to my mother-in-law's palace for a month.

But he knew that the mother-in-law never expected her father to come, because there would always be tall men in black clothes appearing in the palace from time to time.

Whenever that man came, he would be sent out of the palace, and he would slowly become familiar with Cheng Ruhua outside the palace.

At that time, Cheng Ruhua was learning how to make tofu. She always had a smile on her pretty face. When she saw him, she would always say, "A Ce, was your mother kicked out again?"

Then she gave him a piece of hot tofu. The tofu she made at that time was not delicious, but Shen Lance ate it for three years.

Later, when his father came to the throne, he was also confined to the palace. On New Year's Eve when he was ten years old, his mother and concubine took him back to the palace claiming to be ill, and he saw the tall man waiting in the palace.

Shen Lance was so angry that he couldn't control himself and stepped forward to punch and kick the man.

Also that night, the man happily raised his little self and smiled heartily:

"Hahahaha, he is indeed my son, Cheng Yan. He is brave, resourceful and courageous."

The mother-in-law smiled and shed tears. She held her hand and said, "Cer, he is your father."

From then on, Shen Lance knew his identity. He began to study secretly and gradually became stronger.

Only in this way can he survive in this cannibal palace. With the secret help of his parents, he finally has a place in his father's heart.

He began to train secret guards and secretly learned the art of the emperor. When he couldn't hold on anymore, he went out of the palace to see Cheng Ruhua's busy back.

It wasn't until his father and mother-in-law selected a candidate for the princess for him that Shen Lance realized that he was not strong enough.

With his current status, if he wants to protect the person deep in his heart, he cannot let others know his thoughts.

So he happily married the daughter of the Minister of Civil Affairs and buried Cheng Ruhua deeply in his heart.

Everyone knows that he, Shen Lance, and the princess treat each other like guests, playing the piano and the harp in harmony, but only he knows how hard he lives every day and every night.

Playing with someone you don't love every day is like torture.

Therefore, he did not take any more concubines. His princess had a prominent family background and could help him a lot.

Then why take a concubine to make her unhappy? !

Neither the left nor the right is like a flower.

Now that the mother-in-law has regained the favor for him, maybe it won't be long before she can overthrow Shen Lanzhong and ascend to that high position.

Shen Lance sat in the gorgeous soft sedan, gently traced Cheng Ruhua's graceful figure in the air with his fingers, and murmured:

"Ruhua, wait for me. As long as you keep your heart like every time before, when I ascend to the throne, no one will stop you from entering because of your background."

No one knows how many people he has secretly wanted to get close to her over the years, just to wait until the day when his wings are full, and then welcome her fully into the door.

Cheng Ruhua, who was on the street, didn't realize anyone was prying at all. She looked at Ning Yu's slender face and couldn't help but stretched out her hand and rubbed it gently:

"Stop scheming against King Jing'an. That man is very evil. It is the only way to follow your master. Do you understand? Xiao Ningyu."

Ning Yu blushed at what she said and couldn't find the words to refute for a moment.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: This sister Ruhua is the one who is sober in the world.

She was pulled by Cheng Ruhua and walked to Qingmu: "Go back home early, the tofu won't taste good if it's too late."

Qingmu followed Ning Yu with a box of tofu, and the two of them slowly walked towards the Taifu Mansion.

After the two left, Cheng Ruhua leaned against the stall and stood there for a long time looking at Ning Yu's back.

Seeing Cheng Ruhua like this, Shen Lance felt a little panicked in his heart for no reason. He paused, then finally lifted the sedan curtain and walked out slowly.

He walked to Cheng Ruhua and called out in a very soft voice: "Ruhua."

Cheng Ruhua responded crisply, and when she turned around, she saw a man in gorgeous clothes standing in front of her, looking straight at her.

In my memory, I have never come into contact with such a number one person, but this person feels so familiar to me.

Shen Lance looked at Cheng Ruhua's beautiful face that had appeared in her dreams countless times, and smiled lightly:

"Ruhua, I haven't eaten the tofu you made for many years. I wonder if it still tastes the same now?"

A sudden surprise appeared on Cheng Ruhua's face: "Little Ace?"

God has been treating me so well these days, and my childhood friends appear in front of me one after another.

First it was Ning Yu, and now it was A Ce. Cheng Ruhua was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear. She closed the stall and said crisply to the people around her:

"Today I met an old friend in my hometown. I closed the stall in advance. If anyone comes to buy tofu, I asked them to come early tomorrow."

Shen Lance looked at Cheng Ruhua's smile and smiled unconsciously. While helping Cheng Ruhua push the cart, he asked with a smile:

"Ruhua wants to take Ben, where does Ruhua take me?"

Cheng Ruhua didn't notice the flaw in Shen Lance's words. She saw Shen Lance pushing the cart for her like she was a child, and said with a smile:

"Don't you want to eat tofu? Let's go, sister will make you tofu."

Shen Lance winked at the guard in the dark, and someone told the bearer not to wait any longer.

Cheng Ruhua's small courtyard is kept clean and cozy. A huge stone mill in the hall exudes a faint aroma of tofu.

She made Shen Lance a pot of tea and got busy in the room.

Shen Lance's eyes followed her figure, and he slowly drank the inferior tea in his hand, feeling extremely peaceful in his heart.

Cheng Ruhua was so enthusiastic that she cooked whatever was available at home and quickly made four dishes and one soup.

The two sat opposite each other, chatting while eating, and actually finished the vegetarian dishes.
