"Drink what wine? This Princess shall also have a taste . "
It's Ning Anlian!
She must have heard that Yun Ruofeng was holding a banquet for Pei Qianhao and decided to show her concern for her lover .
Even though such a long time had pa . s . sed, Su Xi-er couldn't stop her gaze from becoming chips of ice when she saw Ning Anlian .
Her deep-seated hatred of Ning Anlian made her unable to hide the brief glint of undisguised animosity in her eyes .

Even though it had vanished so rapidly, it didn't escape Pei Qianhao's eyes . He was silently observing, his thin lips pursed as if he was contemplating something .
The Eldest Imperial Princess, Ning Anlian, approached him and bowed . "Greetings to Prince Hao . "
Pei Qianhao only nodded slightly . "I presume this must be the Eldest Imperial Princes . "
"That's this Princess . " Ning Anlian was neither haughty nor hot-tempered . She wore a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, demonstrating the proper disposition of an imperial princess .
She coldly scanned her eyes across the surroundings before taking a seat next to Yun Ruofeng, smiling at him, but otherwise silent .

Ning Anlian knew enough that she had to put up the front of an ordinary relations . h . i . +p in front of outsiders . Naturally, this involved allowing Yun Ruofeng to keep his face, not leaving anything for others to gossip about .
However, she unknowingly revealed the overly pa . s . sionate look in her eyes . How could someone as meticulous as Prince Hao miss something like that?
Yun Ruofeng turned the cup in his hand, his expression remaining usual . With the same gentle smile on his face, n . o . body knew of his inner thoughts .
Ning Anlian looked at the cup in his hand and inhaled the scent of wine in the surroundings . He must have drank a lot .
She couldn't help but knit her brows . Smiling at Pei Qianhao, she spoke, "Prince Yun has yet to recover from his previous injuries, and it's not appropriate for him to drink too much wine . If you don't mind, this Princess will drink with you, Prince Hao . "

Hearing what she said, Pei Qianhao suddenly chuckled . "A man hiding behind a woman, and even needing her to help him drink . It's this Prince's first time hearing about it . "
Ning Anlian's expression instantly changed . "You…"
Yun Ruofeng interjected . "There's no need for that . This Prince can drink . "
Ning Anlian's expression soured once again . Noticing that Yun Ruofeng's complexion didn't look too good, she couldn't be bothered to mind the surrounding people . "You can't drink with your body still unwell . Have you forgotten the previous palace banquet…"
"There's no need for you to be worried, Eldest Imperial Princess . This Prince is fine . "
With the continuous exchange between the two, it was inevitable that people would let their imaginations run wild .
Su Xi-er watched on coldly . What a great display of affection between lovers .
At this moment, Pei Qianhao suddenly said, "This Prince doesn't make things difficult for people . Since Prince Yun is feeling unwell, the Eldest Imperial Princess can take his place . However…"
As Pei Qianhao paused, everyone's gazes landed on him, only to see the smile in his eyes . "Since the Eldest Imperial Princess is drinking on his behalf, this Prince can't drink . "
Pei Qianhao immediately pulled Su Xi-er over to the seat beside him without asking if she agreed . He then poured a cup of wine and told her with a placid expression . "You can drink a cup with Nanzhao's Eldest Imperial Princess . "
Ning Anlian looked at Su Xi-er's maidservant attire . This is clearly a maidservant serving Prince Hao . How can I, the grand Eldest Imperial Princess, drink with a maidservant? This Prince Hao is really audacious to compare me with a servant girl!
