The stunning husband is in love, but she flirts and runs away

Chapter 182: Blatant Robbery

"I am Chuangmang, the personal bodyguard of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Chuangmang nodded again and introduced himself to Lin Acai.

"Rampant..."

It was the first time she heard someone with this surname, and it was really novel.

"Guard Chuang, please lead the way." As soon as the words fell, Lin Acai got into the carriage swiftly.

Chuangmang jumped up and also rode on the red horse next to the carriage.

In an instant.

The carriage turned around and slowly drove towards the direction of the palace.

......

About half an hour.

Lin Acai finally stepped into the East Palace where His Royal Highness the Crown Prince resided.

Li Chengce was feeling extremely nervous at the moment. When the figure he had been waiting for slowly walked towards him, his hands, which had nowhere to put, could not help but tremble as he held the scroll in his palms.

"Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder why His Royal Highness summoned me to the palace?"

Lin Acai nodded and lowered her eyes, not even looking at the prince.

This made the prince who was looking at her anxiously across from her very anxious: "Miss Lin, why are you so unfamiliar with me? Don't be restrained. Look up quickly. I have something to give you."

"..."

Don't get too close to this person.

Be sure to keep your distance from him.

If this man took advantage of her unpreparedness and did something to her, she would be finished.

All she had to do was delay the time as much as possible and wait for the young man to come and rescue him.

"Your Highness, if there is anything, I can see it here. There is no need to go over..."

After all, this is the East Palace, the prince's territory. Lin Acai didn't want to anger the other party, so she tried hard to control her tone and made her words of refusal sound almost like a plea.

Upon seeing this, the prince suddenly sneered and shook his head. Since Miss Lin was unwilling to come, he would go by himself.

Holding the scroll in his hand, Li Chengce walked up to Lin Acai in a blink of an eye.

"Miss Lin, this is the portrait I drew for you personally. Do you like it?"

As he spoke, the prince slowly unfolded the portrait and raised his arm to place it in front of the woman.

"..."

what's the situation?

Isn’t this the place where she and her sister fed little Tangxin in the Imperial Garden before?

Why does the prince remember this place?

and many more...

Could it be that he was also nearby that time, spying on her?

Lin Acai got goosebumps all over her body. She remembered that she talked a lot to Yu Jie that day. She wondered if he had heard all that.

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. Lin Acai suddenly couldn't help but look up at the prince, trying to see something from his eyes.

But she never expected that the prince's words would break her defense:

"That day I saw you and your maid chatting in front of the rockery. I wanted to say hello to you, but after hearing what you said, I couldn't move a step...

This is the first time I feel that someone can understand me so well. Your words make me very happy, as if I have found a confidante whom I haven't seen for many years. "

"...a close female friend?"

These words are not used indiscriminately.

Lin Acai raised her head and looked at the Crown Prince opposite her again.

Why did he feel that this person was not the prince he knew before?

This face and these words made her feel that the person in front of her was very unfamiliar.

"That's right, Miss Lin, a confidante is actually very short. It is a blessing to find a confidante who is compatible with your soul. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It is obvious that you are the one I have been looking for."

"..."

Oh my God, where is the man she met before who had tears in his eyes when he saw her?

The more he talked, the more outrageous it became. He was like two completely different people.

How should she respond to this?

Li Chengce: "Ms. Lin, I give you this painting as a gift for your first visit to the East Palace."

Although the prince's previous words had changed Lin Acai's impression of him, she still didn't want to accept the portrait.

If she accepted it, not only would the guy feel bad, she would also look down on herself. Wouldn't she then become a two-timing diva?

It’s unlucky just to think about it.

Forget it, I'd better just deal with it for now and take it one step at a time to see if I can return the portrait to him in a proper way when the time comes.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."

Lin Acai tried hard not to let her expression look bad so as not to be seen through her worries. So when she took the portrait, she tried her best to control her emotions so as not to be sad or happy, humble or arrogant.

The main feature is a peaceful one.

The prince felt a little disappointed when he saw Miss Lin taking the portrait but not being as happy as he had imagined.

He worked hard to prepare himself mentally and brainwash himself.

Don't be too hasty. The fact that Miss Lin accepted your portrait shows that she is not opposed to your kindness towards her.

There are still so many days until the wedding day. If he calls her out every day to spend time with him and talk with him, I believe that in a few days, just as the queen mother said, Miss Lin will take the initiative to throw herself into his arms.

Just as he was thinking this, Li Chengce suddenly placed his hand gently on Lin Acai's shoulder, looking straight at her, waiting for her next reaction.

"..."

No, why did the prince suddenly touch her?

Lin Acai bit her lip and suddenly moved to the side. "Prince...I have received the portrait. If there is nothing else, I will go back. Little Tangxin is waiting for me at home. This child has been unable to sleep well at night recently and always clings to me during the day."

There was no other way. At this point, she could only use her little daughter as a shield to prevent the prince from being too embarrassed.

Sure enough, although the prince was unhappy, he couldn't vent his anger on the woman in front of him.

But he still asked the question that he wanted to ask the most, "Miss Lin... I want to know, is your daughter's father Prince Xiao?"

This question was like a thorn that had been stuck in his throat. From the information he had collected about Lin Acai's past, he inadvertently learned that Master Xiao had stayed in Xinghua Village where Miss Lin was for a month.

According to the calculation of time, the child is most likely Prince Xiao's.

But he always held on to a fantasy, and he was unwilling to believe it was true unless Miss Lin told him it in person.

"Your Highness, the father of the child is none other than Prince Xiao. I got pregnant with him when he was recuperating in Xinghua Village.

After that, he went to the south for the sake of the Northern Cang Kingdom. He was gone for three years. He did not tell me his true identity as the son of Jingyuan Marquis. At that time, I thought he was a heartless man who did not want to be responsible for me and the child, so I resented him...

Later, after he returned to Kyoto, I never treated him kindly, and I made up my mind never to have anything to do with him again in my life.

It was not until later that we learned that everything was a misunderstanding and a test from God..."
