Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

Chapter 644  I find comfort in her

"Ye Xin, this will look good on you," Xiwan said as he put the hairpin on her hair bun while she looked into the mirror.

Ye Xin tilted her head to get the perfect view and smiled. "You are right. It does look good on me. Then, shall I buy it?" Ye Xin asked and turned around to face him.

"I will buy it. You can buy other accessories too," Xiwan said. The shop owner told them he had the premium quality jades with him and asked them if they would like to check them.

"Sure," Xiwan asked him to pack that hairpin that the shop owner took from him. After putting the hairpin into the box, he showed them a couple of jade rings.

"We already have rings," Xiwan showed him his fourth finger.

"But we can buy one more pair," Ye Xin opined.

"That's what I am trying to say," the shop owner said while smiling. "This white jade with gold carving over it is considered rare. It is tough to get them at a cheaper rate," he asserted.

Ye Xin took the ring from the shop owner and inserted it into Xiwan's index finger. "It fits you," she said and lifted her head.

"Usually women wear white jades," Xiwan said. He wasn't a fan of white color.

"I've seen many men wear white jade rings," Ye Xin affirmed.

The shop owner agreed with Ye Xin's words. Xiwan nodded at him and then asked him to pack those rings.

"We should wear them," Ye Xin said and asked him not to remove the ring. She gave him the ring and asked him to insert it on her index finger.

Xiwan made her wear the ring and paid the money for the rings and hairpin.

They walked ahead, holding each other hands. "I heard from Lin Jiao on the day that she met Prince Lóng Wei," Ye Xin said. "Did you also meet the Prince?" She asked.

"I did. I was going to tell you about it. Last night, Prince Lóng Wei has come to my place and we had fun. We talked for long hours. I told Prince Lóng Wei about us and I'm so eager to meet your family tomorrow for fixing the marriage date," he stated.

Ye Xin's eyes glimmered with happiness and she told Xiwan she was ready to officially become his wife.

"I am also ready to be your husband," Xiwan asserted with a wide smile.

"I will see you off home. You must reach home before dinner," he said and they both left the market.

Chang Shi and Ai Fen came out of the sight of many people. They were standing under the trees that were standing tall. The lanterns were hanging from one tree to the other, thus keeping the region illuminated.

"Does Princess Ai Fen think of me as a man because I have started seeing her as a" Chang Shi took a brief pause before finishing, "woman?"

Ai Fen slightly nodded her head. "It is tough to find a man like you. If I want to marry anyone, then it will be you," she stated.

Chang Shi felt this foreign feeling inside him. It was hard for him to believe that he was a choice of someone. "I would love to marry Princess Ai Fen," he said with a smile. I like you, Princess."

Ai Fen lowered her eyes for a brief moment and continued to smile. "Why did you not tell me ever? We met so many times," she asked.

"I was scared thinking Princess Ai Fen might get upset with me. I was unsure about many things," Chang Shi said.

Ai Fen hummed and asked him to forward his hand.

Chang Shi gazed at her with inquisitiveness and then he forwarded his hand. Ai Fen placed her soft hand above his. "Ask the King for my hand. Will you? I want you to talk with His Majesty. I can do it, but the feeling will be different if you do it," she asserted.

Chang Shi smiled and agreed to her. "I will do it, Princess Ai Fen." He interlaced their fingers and lowered their hands before taking a step toward her.

"Why did Princess Ai Fen never say about her feelings before?" Chang Shi asked.

"I could not get the right time. I thought you did not like me. I had a lot of things on my mind too," Ai Fen truthfully told him.

"When I saw you in the palace today, I came to you for this reason only. For a week, when I didn't see you, I was a bit worried," Ai Fen asserted.

"Forgive me for disappearing for a week without telling Her Highness," Chang Shi said and held her second hand too.

Ai Fen shook her head slightly. "Don't apologize," she said. "I know you do a lot of work, Chang Shi. Did you miss me in that one week?" She then asked.

"I did miss Princess Ai Fen. I missed talking for hours with her. I find comfort in her," Chang Shi said and curled his fingers around her hands.

"Then, include me in your life for eternity. I will be upset if you delay anything," Ai Fen said.

"I will talk with His Majesty about us," Chang Shi promised her.

"Isn't that Chang Shi?" Feng Lao muttered, who was with Huang Xi. "Who he is with? Is that a woman?" he mumbled.

Huang Xi halted in his steps and looked in the direction where Feng Lao had his gaze.

Because Ai Fen had their back toward them, Feng Lao could not recognize her. However, Huang Xi recognized her by the outfit. They saw them hugging and it brought a smile to Feng Lao's lips.

"Chang Shi is seeing this woman and he didn't tell anyone," Feng Lao said and gazed at Huang Xi.

"I need to go," Huang Xi said.

Feng Lao found his behavior strange. "But you told me you needed to–"

"Not anymore," Huang Xi said and turned away. Before Feng Lao could speak, Huang Xi walked away.

"What happened to him?" Feng Lao knitted his brows together.
