Sure enough, it was this glass of orange juice that caught his attention?

Qin Shu's hand holding the cup did not dare to make any obvious guilty moves.

She passively endured his gaze for nearly a minute, and when she could hardly hold on, luckily!

Chu Linchen finally withdrew his sharp gaze.

At this moment, I feel relieved!

Qin Shu was eager to stay away from Chu Linchen and took the initiative to say to Gong Hongxu: "Mr. Gong, it is said that the handicrafts and paintings displayed at today's banquet are basically genuine works by famous artists. Let's take a look around?"

"Okay!" Gong Hongxu responded happily.

He has no interest in handicrafts. No matter how good the handicrafts here are, they are not as good as those in the Imperial Palace.

But Yuan Luoli proposed on his own initiative, how could he refuse the woman he loved?

Qin Shu and Gong Hongxu walked to the exhibition area, taking the opportunity to stay away from Chu Linchen.

It wasn't until she felt the two lines of sight behind her disappear that her tense body relaxed.

Gong Hongxu suddenly stretched out his hand towards her.

Qin Shu subconsciously avoided it.

"What are you hiding from?"

Gong Hongxu, who had caught the opportunity, was a little dissatisfied. Looking at the alienated expression on Qin Shu's face, he explained: "I just want to hold your hand. You are my female companion, but we are all here, and we don't even have our hands."

I haven’t saved it at all!”

His tone sounded matter-of-fact.

Qin Shu's eyes dimmed and he said: "Young Master Gong, we are companions attending the banquet together. In the eyes of outsiders, I am your female companion, but you and I both know that we are not so familiar with each other yet.

.So, intimate gestures such as holding hands are impossible for you and me."

"..." Gong Hongxu looked at her in astonishment, unable to say a word.

Qin Shu's words were direct and clear. He really didn't give him any face at all!

It took Gong Hongxu a while to find his voice, but with a hint of anger, he said, "Yuan Luoli, I am the prince of this country and the future master of the country's palace! You actually said such words to me? It's too disrespectful.

You see me in your eyes!"

Qin Shu looked at him calmly, not moved because of his flaunting his identity.

She said unhurriedly: "I can give you the courtesy and respect that a prince deserves, but feelings have nothing to do with identity and status. They are two people who feel something and go in both directions. You can like me, but I don't care about you.

You are indifferent."

"I can make you the future mistress of the Imperial Palace! Aren't you still tempted?" Gong Hongxu gritted his teeth and repeated what he just said in front of everyone.

Qin Shu shook his head unmoved, "I said, true love has nothing to do with status."

Gong Hongxu was unconvinced and frowned.

But Qin Shu changed the topic and asked: "By the way, Mr. Gong, do you like me as a person? Or... do you just like my face?"

Gong Hongxu said without thinking: "What's the difference? Your face is all about my aesthetics. I was amazed at the first sight. After getting in touch with you, I found that you are different from other women!"

I like everything about you! Yuan Luoli, I like you!"
