twilight vampire prince's oriental princess

After pondering for a while, Lan Xuan finally made a decision.

She looked into Edward's eyes, "I don't love you."

Edward's golden eyes were obviously much darker, "I know, but I won't give up."

"But I think we can try it," she said quietly.

"What?" Edward was stunned for a moment, and then asked again, his eyes were full of anticipation and disbelief.

Seeing Edward's eyes, Lan Xuan couldn't help feeling warm in his heart.It may be really nice to have such a sincere person by your side.

She smiled softly, "I mean, since you like me..."

"Love." Edward looked at her deeply and said firmly, "I love you."

Lan Xuan was stunned for a moment, and quickly recovered, "Well, since you love me, and I don't have anyone I like now, and I don't hate you, why don't we try to be together!"

Following Lan Xuan's words, Edward's eyes became brighter and brighter, and after Lan Xuan finished speaking, he had already embraced Lan Xuan in his arms.Then he excitedly jumped down from the tree with Lan Xuan in his arms, and jumped up again as soon as he landed, leading Lan Xuan to jump quickly through the woods.

Lan Xuan sweated secretly, it turned out that this person would learn to jump up and down like a monkey when he was happy.

She hurriedly stopped her: "Edward, stop! I haven't finished my sentence yet!"

Edward barely suppressed his excitement and joy and jumped back to the ground with her in his arms, but he still held her tightly in his arms and did not let go.

Lan Xuan supported his chest with both hands to slightly distance the two of them. She stared into his eyes and said, "Although I am willing to be with you, I will try my best to make myself like you in the days to come. But the future No one is sure, I may never love you, or I may fall in love with someone else. So, do you still insist?"

Edward wrapped one hand tightly around her waist, gently stroked her cheek with the other, and bowed his head to kiss her piously on the forehead, "I'm already stuck in it, and I can't escape anymore." So as long as you don't Leave me, one day I will make you fall in love with me, we have eternal time.As for the others, I will never give them a chance!

The two of them skipped the morning class and stayed in the woods all morning, and didn't return to school until noon.

Edward took Lan Xuan's hand and walked in the corridor, his usual indifferent expression was replaced by a cheerful smile.He was in such a good mood that he ignored the negative thoughts he read about himself casually along the way.

Lan Xuan's expression was not very good, she frowned slightly, trying her best to ignore the sweet blood that passed through the tip of her nose from time to time.

The two soon came to the school cafeteria.Alice and the others have arrived and are waving to them.

Edward pulled Lan Xuan quickly through the crowd to sit down beside them.

"Oh Edward, I saw it. You two skipped class and ran into the woods behind the school..." Alice blinked mischievously.

Edward ignored her, he shook Lan Xuan's hand, "I'll get you some food."

Alice turned to Lan Xuan, "Edward will be a good partner, and you will be happy."

Lan Xuan didn't reply, a boy pretended to pass by their dining table casually, and the blood clearly passed into her nose.Her body tensed slightly, and in a blink of an eye, Gaspar had the same expression as hers.Although it was a little unkind, seeing Gasper who was in the same situation and feeling pity for her made her feel a little better.

Soon Edward came back with two portions of the same food. Lan Xuan saw that the appearance was not bad and the smell was delicious, but she clearly knew that when she ate it, it must taste like earth or wood.She had already tried this.

Rosalie warned: "Just pretend, don't swallow it."

"Otherwise you'll have to work hard to spit it out later," Alice went on.

Lan Xuan hooked his mouth, picked up a piece of bread and made it invisible under the cover of his body.

"Oh! Well done, baby." Alice marveled, Emmett gave her a thumbs up, and Rosalie and Gaspar looked at her appreciatively.

Alice picked up her own plate and sat down beside her with her back to everyone, "Honey, I'll leave it to you."

Lan Xuan reached out and invisible half of the food on Alice's dinner plate, while several other vampires pushed their own dinner plates over.

After "eating" their lunch, the six vampires dumped the rest of the food into the trash can together with the invisible ones.At the same time, Lan Xuan lifted the concealment technique.

In the afternoon class, although Lan Xuan still needed to restrain her bloodthirsty desire, fortunately, after working hard to adapt in the morning, the smell of human blood did not affect her as much as in the morning.

Back home at night, Carlisle asked them about what happened today in detail, and praised Lan Xuan's ability: "I didn't expect Lan Xuan's ability to be used in this way, which really saved us a lot of trouble. But according to my original It is said that the concealment technique does have room for expansion, and it may not only be applied to objects."

Lan Xuan's heart moved, "You mean... invisibility?"

"Yes, stealth." Carlisle nodded, "With this ability, you can better ensure your own safety. When you encounter danger, you can hide in time."

Lan Xuan lowered her eyes, she is not a cowardly and incompetent person who only hides when things happen, her forbearance and hiding are often just to give the enemy a fatal blow by surprise!

At night, the vampire couldn't fall asleep. Everyone went back to their rooms to do what they were interested in, while Alice stayed in the living room and learned embroidery with Lan Xuan, while Gaspar and Edward stayed by.

In the 15 years since her rebirth to the Qing Dynasty, Lan Xuan has already learned a good embroidery technique.Holding the needle and thread in her hand, she flew up and down, and the vampire's speed was countless times faster than that of humans. After a while, a purple orchid slowly formed on the white embroidered cloth.

Alice's hands are very dexterous, and after Lan Xuan's explanation, she can also embroider some simple patterns in a decent way.

"Do Chinese girls have to learn these?" Edward was very surprised to see those beautiful patterns gradually forming in Lan Xuan's hands.

Lan Xuan tidied up the silk threads carefully, "In my time, girls had to be able to do embroidery well. Because most of their wedding dresses and husband's clothes after marriage had to be sewed by themselves."

"You are a princess, do you want to make clothes yourself?" Alice asked curiously.

Lan Xuan shook his head, "I just need to make some small items, such as handkerchiefs and sachets. You don't have to do it if you don't want to. At that time, the system was different. Even the husband of the princess was considered the servant of the princess. They couldn't ask for more changes from their wives." many."

"What?" Gaspar, who was listening quietly at the side, was also puzzled, and asked strangely, "Why is the husband the wife's servant?" Now that you are married, isn't it a family?Why did you become a servant?

Edward also looked at Lan Xuan, but he remembered Lan Xuan once said that she had a fiancé and almost got married.He secretly thought about when to ask this matter clearly.

Lan Xuan thought for a while before sorting out the language. She didn't understand the system of that era very well, "In the Qing Dynasty, the imperial power was supreme and the ranks were clearly defined. Ministers had to call themselves servants in front of the royal family. Although women could not participate in politics, the status of royal princesses was very high. High, the status and treatment of the highest-level princess is equivalent to that of a prince. If you can marry a princess, it represents supreme grace and glory. But relatively, because the rank is clear, the status of the princess is too high, and their husbands You can't get close to them, they can't even live together."

"It's unbelievable." Edward murmured, he was very glad that he and Lan Xuan met in the modern age of equality.

Lan Xuan added: "Princesses and their husbands don't live together, and after the princess gets married, there are several people who look after her, and these people often control their actions and even property. If they and their husbands want to To meet or get close, you have to use property and money to please these people."

Alice felt very strange, "Aren't they princesses? Why don't they ask their father for help?"

"Eastern and Western cultures and customs are different. Women at that time were weak and shy. They did not dare to tell others that they wanted to be close to their husbands. They were worried that others would think that they were dissatisfied with their desires or shameless. These factors prevented them from seeing their husbands for many years. Lonely and lonely, unable to have children, died sadly at a very young age."

After listening to Lan Xuan's narration, Alice and Gaspar were stunned.Edward was even more thankful that her Lan Xuan became a vampire like him, and did not die early like those princesses, but met him in this era.
