Chapter 229: She Had Already Taken A Bite Out Of That
Of course it would trouble her.
Lu Liangwei shook her head and said indifferently, “No, I don’t have anything to do anyway.”
However, Long Yang thought of something and turned down her offer, “Those people from earlier had come for you. I’ll send someone to escort you back later. You don’t have to come back tomorrow.”
Lu Liangwei understood his worries. She was unwilling to come anyway, so she was glad to hear him say that.
“Alright.”
Long Yang felt slightly disappointed.
Although he did not want Lu Liangwei to risk herself, he was a little displeased to know that she would not be coming.
Lu Liangwei sensed that he was not in a good mood and was about to find an excuse to leave when Zhao Qian came in with a plate of peaches.
“Second Miss, I’ve washed the peaches. Would you like to taste them?”
Before Lu Liangwei could answer, Long Yang had already spoken, “Sit down.”
Lu Liangwei had no choice but to take a seat. She took a silver pick from Zhao Qian, stuck it into a piece of peach, and ate it gracefully.
She loved eating peaches, and the ones grown in the imperial holiday home were undeniably sweet and juicy. However, no matter how much she liked them, she had trouble swallowing while being stared at by another person.
Moreover, the person in question was the Emperor.
Although Long Yang was holding a book in his hands, his gaze was not on its pages but on her instead.
Noticing how wary she looked, the glint in his eyes dimmed a little.
He had seen how she behaved in front of Lu Tingchen and Lu Hetian, and she was not like this.
She would always act cute and was very casual in front of her father and brother. On the other hand, she was cautious and reserved when she was with him.
In fact, she was much more relaxed that time on Sacred Hillock Peak compared to now.
It seemed that ever since he confessed his feelings to her, she became a little wary around him.
Long Yang was a little upset, and his voice unconsciously emanated a sense of authority. “Don’t be so reserved.”
“Yes.” Despite Lu Liangwei’s response, her behavior did not change much.
Long Yang shot Zhao Qian a glance.
Zhao Qian immediately left the room.
When there was nobody else in the room, Long Yang stood up.
Lu Liangwei was eating the peaches when a shadow was cast over her abruptly.
Before she could react, she saw him suddenly bend down, his mouth plucking her half-eaten peach from her silver pick.
Lu Liangwei, “…”
She had already taken a bite out of that!!
She stared at him in bewilderment, a blush forming unconsciously on her small face.
No matter how calm tried to be, she could not help feeling embarrassed at this moment.
She had already taken a bite; how could he…
She frowned, staring at the empty silver pick in a daze.
Long Yang was satisfied to see a different expression appear on her face.
Seeing her sitting there without continuing to eat, Long Yang reached out to stick the silver pick into another piece and passed it to her. “The peaches are the most delicious during this period. You’ve worked so hard all this time, so do eat some more.”
When he saw that she did not reach out to take it, he put the peach to her lips, planning to feed her.
Lu Liangwei immediately came back to her senses and took it quickly. “Thank you, Your Majesty. I can do it myself.”
Long Yang’s deep eyes narrowed.
Was he some kind of ferocious beast? Why was she so scared of him?
Lu Liangwei ate the peach with her head lowered. The fruit that she usually loved had now become tasteless.
She felt even more uncomfortable, especially when she saw Long Yang sit down beside her.
After thinking for a while, she decided to put the peach down and turn to him. “Your Majesty, do you have something to tell me?”
Long Yang took in the hint of annoyance between her eyebrows and her sulky little face. Instead of getting angry, he was pleased to see her like this.
A cheerful look flashed across his dark eyes. “Yes.” After thinking for a while, he suggested, “Shall we go fishing together?” It was a question, but after uttering it, he did not plan on letting her answer. He got up and reached out to take her hand, giving no room for refusal.
