Chapter 236: Jealousy
However, Lin Rusi did not notice the change in his expression, her mind constantly reliving the scenes from her past life.
At that time, she saw this cloak and tried to ask Li Zeyan for it, but what did the man say back then?
"You think you're worthy?" The man looked down at him, his eyes full of disdain.
At that time, even though Lin Rusi felt humiliated, she could only endure it in silence.
But later, she saw the same cloak on a dancer.
It was only later that I learned that Li Zeyan had given away the cloak.
It was then that Lin Rusi realized that in his eyes she was not even as good as a dancer, but the man in front of her regarded her as a treasure.
He gave himself the one and only cloak.
Lin Rusi's eyes were slightly red, and she looked sad.
Then, he turned to look at the person next to him again: "Thank you."
Her tone was very serious, with a slight tremor.
This made Li Jingyang's expression somewhat complicated. He didn't understand why Sisi would suddenly mention Li Zeyan.
It couldn't be out of concern for Lin Ruqin, could it?
The reason had barely crossed his mind when Li Jingyang subconsciously rejected it.
He silently watched Lin Rusi, a feeling of jealousy slowly welling up in his heart.
He will never forget that at that time, Sisi almost married Li Zeyan.
Although I know she's not that kind of person.
He would never betray him, but Li Jingyang's displeasure was impossible to hide.
At that moment, Lin Rusi was unaware of what was happening and only felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
She no longer cared about Li Zeyan, that despicable person, but she still felt that she had wasted too much time on him.
Seeing that she hadn't yet noticed his emotions, Li Jingyang felt unhappy, and his jealousy intensified.
"Sisi!" He opened his mouth and whispered, his eyes filled with intense possessiveness.
Lin Rusi turned around and met the man's somewhat dangerous gaze.
She leaned back slightly, feeling a little guilty.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Noticing that Li Jingyang's expression was off, Lin Rusi didn't dare to say anything, but the man just stared at her with a dangerous look in his eyes.
"Your Highness?" She took a deep breath and spoke cautiously.
But Li Jingyang suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her straight into his arms and kissing her lips without saying a word.
The force was so strong and urgent that it truly felt like it wanted to crush her.
Lin Rusi was unable to resist; she could only push the man away, her eyes filled with panic.
The group following behind clearly had never seen such a scene before.
Ye Qing, in particular, stared wide-eyed. Upon seeing this, Wanxia immediately pulled him around.
"What are you looking at?! You're just a kid, don't keep staring at adults!" Wanxia immediately pulled Ye Qing back around.
Ye Qing blushed slightly, probably embarrassed, because she didn't want him to see.
Seeing this, Wanqi smiled and looked at the two of them.
"Hey, I think I heard someone calling us. Let's go." With that, Wanqi immediately pulled the two away, no longer wanting to disturb Lin Rusi and the other person.
Li Jingyang paid no attention to any of this; he held Lin Rusi tightly, pulling her close to his side.
Feeling the pain on her lips, Lin Rusi was somewhat puzzled.
But before she could react, the man's movements became even more forceful.
Li Jingyang only released her when the taste of blood filled his mouth. His eyes were gloomy, and at first glance, he looked like he wanted to devour her.
The intense possessiveness on his face seemed like an unyielding fog filling Lin Rusi's vision.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Lin Rusi asked with concern, puzzled.
Li Jingyang snorted and said with a hint of coaxing, "You brat, I'm giving you a cloak that's one of a kind in the world, and you're still daydreaming."
As he spoke, the man tapped her head. Lin Rusi finally understood why he was unhappy, and she touched her head, feeling a little aggrieved.
"It's okay, I understand, I won't get distracted anymore." Lin Rusi pursed her red lips and shrank back.
She shouldn't think about Li Zeyan anymore; he's a thing of the past now, and besides, she's learned her lesson.
Lin Rusi took a deep breath, but before she could speak, her stomach suddenly growled.
Two gurgling sounds made Lin Rusi blush with embarrassment.
"Hungry?" Li Jingyang chuckled softly, a hint of amusement in his eyes, as if teasing.
"Hmm, I'm not hungry." Lin Rusi shook her head, but her stomach wouldn't cooperate.
It started gurgling again, and Li Jingyang took her hand.
"Butler, have someone prepare some food and bring it to the guest room."
Li Jingyang waved his hand, but Lin Rusi stopped him.
"Wait!" Lin Rusi stopped the steward and immediately added, "Your Highness, I want to do it myself. Would Your Highness be willing to accompany me?"
Lin Rusi blinked, and seeing this, Li Jingyang was also stunned for a moment before nodding.
"Alright, if you'd like, we'll go."
Li Jingyang followed closely behind her, and the two soon arrived at the kitchen.
Upon seeing this, the butler stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
The steward was astonished that His Highness had never entered the kitchen for anyone before, yet now he was willing to do so for the Princess.
At the same time, she couldn't help but want to say something, but thinking of His Highness's doting affection for Lin Rusi, she ultimately said nothing.
The two entered the kitchen together, before the chefs even noticed.
Upon seeing the two of them enter together, his eyes widened instantly.
Everyone immediately felt uneasy, wondering if they had done something wrong.
"Your Highness, what brings you here?" The head chef was the first to come out, his heart filled with unease.
The prince never sets foot in places like the kitchen, so why did he suddenly come here today?
"I can't come?" Li Jingyang was in a good mood, his tone rising slightly as he spoke, but to the others, his words sounded like an accusation.
"Of course not, we just don't know what we did wrong, Your Highness, why have you come here..."
Li Jingyang looked at the person beside him with affection, but did not speak.
Seeing his dark face and intimidating expression, Lin Rusi immediately tugged at his sleeve.
"It's nothing, you didn't do anything wrong, but I'm a little hungry, it's been a long time since I cooked."
There was a hint of nostalgia in Lin Rusi's eyes, and her voice grew increasingly melancholy.
Seeing this, the head chef finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as they're not here to cause trouble, that's fine.
But the next moment, the head chef's eyes widened, and he looked up in disbelief.
"You mean, you'll do it?" The head chef stared at him suspiciously.
Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi nodded.
Then, seemingly puzzled by the head chef's surprise, he slowly asked, "What's wrong? Is it impossible to make it?"
"No, it's not that. Just tell me what you'd like to eat. Don't you like the food the kitchen makes?" The head chef panicked again, seeing them getting flustered once more.
Lin Rusi immediately added, "No, the food in the kitchen is quite good, it's just that I miss my own cooking skills, it's been a long time since I've made anything."
She spoke slowly, then looked into the kitchen.
"The princess said she'll do it herself, what are you all standing there for? Hurry up and clear out a space!" Li Jingyang frowned impatiently and reprimanded coldly.
