An Eight-year-old Princess

All the girls were puzzled. Prince Jing walked closer. He was dressed in a dark purple robe. He was handsome with a roman nose and thin lips. His angular eyes lent him a dignified air. A man dressed in red walked behind him. He had a boyish charm. He wore a mischievous smile and his eyes moved constantly from Yun Shang to Prince Jing.

Yun Shang frowned and wondered whether Wenxi would dislike her now because of Prince Jing's statement. The young girls standing behind Yun Shang gawked at Prince Jing. Noticing this, Yun Shang understood why they would accompany the older ladies rather than enjoy themselves in the garden prepared for female guests. They were waiting for Prince Jing.

Lady Shun Qing had asked Yun Shang to show them around. Some of the girls might have been unwilling but they had to follow her. On the one hand, they dared not offend Yun Shang because she was a Princess. On the other hand, they wanted to take this opportunity to see what Prince Jing's fiancee was like.

"Luo Qingyan, when did you fall in love with Princess Yun Shang? You are not being honest with me. I was surprised when you said that you must marry her. Several of the younger girls looked at Wang Jinhuan. Despite the fact that he had exaggerated his facial expression, they marveled at his fine features.

Yun Shang looked pensive. She smiled, "I don't know either. Uncle, when did you fall in love with me so deeply? Weren't you worried that Mister Wang would tease you? You have overacted." Not waiting for Prince Jing's response, Yun Shang turned and said to the young girls, "Let's head to the garden in front." Yun Shang bypassed Prince Jing and Wang Jinhuan as she led the way to the door.

As she walked past Wang Jinhuan, she covertly flicked a needle in front of him. As expected, Wang Jinhuan's foot was hurt when he stepped on it. He fell on Prince Jing and melodramatically yelled, "Luo Qingyan, are you playing tricks on me again?"

When Yun Shang and the young girls turned, they saw Wang Jinhuan had embraced Prince Jing with an aggrieved expression.

The young girls blushed and followed Yun Shang in a hurry.

Only Prince Jing and Wang Jinhuan were left in the garden. Wang Jinhuan was puzzled about the embarrassing scene. He didn't want to attract attention in such an awkward way. For fear of being ridiculed, he had intentionally fallen on Prince Jing. But with no one around, the two men looked a bit awkward.

Prince Jing found the needle on the ground and concealed it.

"Aren't you going to congratulate Lady Shun Qing on her birthday? Hurry, go in!" Prince Jing said coolly.

Shang sighed slightly, "It doesn't matter. Prince Jing and Wang Jinhuan have a close relationship. I understand that Prince Jing would want to protect Mister Wang from being the target of gossip.

As Prince Jing is bad-tempered and thinks highly of Mister Wang, if you don't take my advice,
