I became the apex of my nemesis by acting

Waiting for the waiter in the shop to bring plates of delicacies to the table, Xue Beiwang smiled and rolled his eyes to pick up dishes in Bai Chengjue's bowl.

The dishes look very light, but they have a special taste in the mouth.

Bai Chengjue didn't eat much. After moving his chopsticks a few times, he rested his chin on one hand and watched Xue Beiwang eat.

This person's meals are not as elegant as those in the palace, but they are not as rough as gobbling them up. The aroma of delicious food on the table is not as delicious as Xue Beiwang's.

He covered his lips and chuckled, Xue Beiwang raised his head in a daze, stared blankly for two or three seconds, and slowed down his eating.

Bai Chengjue took out a handkerchief and wiped off the sauce from the corners of Xue Beiwang's lips. Xue Beiwang raised his head again, covering the corners of his mouth with his fingers, holding the chopsticks in his hand, not knowing how to eat.

"What's wrong?" Bai Chengjue said softly.

Xue Beiwang shook his head, lowered his eyes and ate the bamboo shoots slowly.

"Now the food is not as delicious as before. Do you need to be so restrained in front of me?"

Xue Beiwang shook his head: "I'm afraid that being rude will frighten you."

"Why, you look so good that you can't take your eyes off just now."

Hearing the little oiran's praise, her ears turned red once again.

He buried his head in the rice, Bai Chengjue suppressed a smile, and wiped off the stains on his lips with a square handkerchief from time to time.

After half an hour, there was only a little vegetable juice left on the plate on the table.

He licked his lips, put his hands on his thighs, and thought about how to negotiate with the shopkeeper to pay off the debt, and a gleaming gold ingot was placed in front of his eyes.

Bai Chengjue rang the rattle on the table with his fingers, and with the crisp sound of the bell, the waiter pushed the door open and entered.

"The rest will be rewarded to you."

"Thank you, Lord." After the waiter said, he accepted the gold ingot with narrowed eyes and left.

After all, Xue Beiwang was born as a prince, so he was not as picky as Jinwei, but he also showed embarrassment.

Bai Chengjue said, "What's wrong?"

He knocked on the table with his clenched hand, and looked at Bai Chengjue seriously. When he thought that the money was paid by the little oiran, his flushed face didn't know whether it was because of being teased or because of self-esteem.

"... You shouldn't have paid for it."

Bai Chengjue said: "It's not that I'm penniless, can I really ask you to mortgage the jade pendant?"

He could see Xue Beiwang's thoughts.

But how can a body that has not yet healed come to these places to suffer.

Xue Beiwang pursed his lips tightly and did not respond. Seeing Xue Beiwang's unrepentant expression, Bai Chengjue tapped his forehead lightly with his index finger.

I saw him covering his forehead and raising his head, the frown between his brows hadn't parted yet.

"No next time, I can."

After all, he was reluctant to use the money saved by the little oiran to settle down.

Bai Chengjue leaned closer to Xue Beiwang, and said softly, "It doesn't make you look so ugly to mortgage the jade pendant just now, do you think I shouldn't come to such an expensive place?"

"No, you like to eat, and I will learn to cook for you in the future."

"Okay, but wait until you recover from your injury."

He wasn't so attached to fine clothes and good food, he chose this place because Xue Beiwang was seriously injured, and the bland dishes would not taste like ordinary small restaurants.

Xue Beiwang hadn't had a few good meals in Min Wang's Mansion in recent days, so he should have a decent meal.

The two left together, and in the private seat in the distance, one of them waved his fan with a 'shua' sound, slapped his chest lightly, and watched the two of them leave the tavern all the way with playful eyes.

"After Jueyuchu died, did you follow him?"

The servant next to him lowered his eyebrows and said pleasingly, "If Master Hui, that's the case."

He clapped his fan on the table and made a crisp sound: "I don't see anything unusual about it, but because of such an unknown person, I rejected my invitation. I think this jade is becoming more and more ignorant!"

"Master, he is a man."

"How about a man? It's better to be a canary raised outside than to hang out with such inferior people."

……

On the way back home, Xue Beiwang sneezed twice.

Seeing Bai Chengjue looking towards him, Xue Beiwang rubbed his arms in embarrassment: "Perhaps it's because I don't wear enough clothes."

The little oiran just smiled and nodded.

He never wanted to go back to the mansion, so he cooked a bowl of ginger soup himself and sent it to Xue Beiwang's room.

Bai Chengjue put down the ginger soup and sat down beside Xue Beiwang: "Let the ginger soup cool down first, and drink it later, I'll help you change the medicine first."

There were no servants in the mansion, so the exhausted Bai Chengjue ran around bringing hot water and ointments for him.

Then Bai Chengjue sat beside Xue Beiwang's bed and wiped his body with medicine. Xue Beiwang tried to snatch the work from Bai Chengjue's hands several times, but was mercilessly hit on the back of his hand by the other party.

He calmly told him to sit down.

Hearing the harsher tone than usual, Xue Beiwang was taken aback, then sat on the bed obediently, not daring to act rashly.

The herbs smudged on the wound along with the wooden sticks, combined with the soft wind blowing from Bai Chengjue's mouth, it was cool and comfortable.

Bai Chengjue said softly: "I'm afraid these injuries will leave scars in the future."

"A man is not afraid of scars, just don't dislike them."

Bai Chengjue smiled slightly, picked up a white cloth beside Xue Beiwang's wound and said, "I don't dislike it, but almost dying isn't worth it."

"It's not worth it."

Xue Beiwang felt his teeth itch when he thought of King Min's domineering eyes. He decided to save people at that time, but the string in his head must have been wrong.

"I should let him be killed by that group of people, and I don't want to suffer the fuss afterwards."

Bai Chengjue's eyes froze, and instead of being angry, he smiled and said, "Don't worry about him in the future, even if you really risk your life for him, he won't remember you."

When Xue Beiwang heard Bai Chengjue mentioning King Min, he couldn't help feeling sour and said, "...you know him well?"

"He is also a former benefactor."

"Then has he ever touched you..." After Xue Beiwang finished speaking, he felt that this sentence was inappropriate, so he gave up in a panic, "Even if there is, it doesn't matter, Jueyu is my only Jueyu now, and what happened in the past has nothing to do with me , if you don't want to answer, then don't answer, and I won't feel alienated."

Bai Chengjue tied his knot, his eyes drooped slightly: "There's nothing to do with it, he just comes to me to listen to the piano on weekdays."

Xue Beiwang stared at the change in Bai Chengjue's expression, but couldn't see any ripples, but couldn't help but asked again: "Then what is your impression of him?"

"He is a generous man, but he is also a ruthless man. If Mr. Xue...Beiwang still plans to return to Prince Min's mansion in the future, I would like to advise you today, don't talk to Prince Min. In times of crisis, interests come first. Will abandon you, even take your life."

Look at how well Bai Chengjue understands King Min.

Xue Bei looked at those calm eyes, and felt that the smell of vinegar was getting stronger.

He kept holding Bai Chengjue's hand, and said in a low voice, "Does Jueyu know what kind of person I am?"

With a slight smile, Bai Chengjue pulled out his hand and lightly touched Xue Beiwang's forehead with his fingertips: "You? You're a fool."
