Chapter 66: Chapter 65: Who Is Really Crazy?

"Ah?"

"Didn’t hear that clearly?"

"No no no, I heard it clearly." Feng Li gave Fu Jinghen a look as if he had seen a ghost, then glanced at the fried chicken in his hand, his expression utterly confused.

Was he the crazy one, or was his boss?

The shooting schedule couldn’t possibly follow the exact order of the storyline. Today’s scene marked the first turning point in the relationship between Princess Rong Huan and Huo Cheng. The Crown Prince of Li Country, standing in for King Li, attended a banquet in Jing Country. He also expressed his desire to marry the Princess of Jing Country to consolidate the alliance between the two nations. Prince Jing was still considering which princess to send over. The Crown Prince mentioned that he had already seen a portrait of Princess Rong Huan and had fallen in love at first sight, wishing to marry her.

Princess Rong Huan, the favorite princess of Prince Jing, naturally required some time to think it over. However, the news quickly spread throughout the inner palace, and everyone was talking about Princess Rong Huan marrying into the neighboring country to become the Crown Princess Consort.

At this time, Princess Rong Huan was still unclear about her feelings for Huo Cheng. She just felt displeased seeing his indifferent reaction upon hearing the news, which led her to throw a tantrum.

Before experiencing the tragedy of her country’s downfall, Princess Rong Huan was a carefree and cheerful young girl. Her makeup and attire were luxurious but not vulgar, every smile and frown displayed her pampered nature.

At that moment, Wen Qiao was dressed in a red and white wide-sleeved fairy dress, one hand holding onto a tree trunk while the other stretched desperately forward. In front of that hand was a paper kite hanging from a branch.

Just as she was about to touch the corner of the paper kite, a dull chime from the distant bell tower startled her, causing her to slip from the tree trunk. She fell from the tree.

"Huo Cheng!"

As soon as she cried out, she felt her body lighten as someone caught her in their arms. She opened her eyes to see Huo Cheng’s stern, distinct features above her.

Her arms wrapped around Huo Cheng’s neck with practiced ease, her face lit up with a grin, unmarred by fear, "Huo Cheng, you’re so quick to react."

Huo Cheng steadied himself on the ground holding Princess Rong Huan before setting her down, his brows slightly furrowed, "Princess, how could you be so careless."

"It’s okay since you’re here."

"What if one day I’m not?"

"Where would you go?" asked Princess Rong Huan blankly, then shrugged nonchalantly, flicking her dress: "It’s alright, just remember to take me with you."

In her memory, she and Huo Cheng were always inseparable. They had never parted; wherever she was, he was there, and wherever he went, she followed.

Huo Cheng was about to say something when he felt a tug at his sleeve. Princess Rong Huan had grabbed his clothes, gently shaking them left and right, "Huo Cheng, the kite is still hanging on the tree and hasn’t been taken down yet."

Huo Cheng gave her a helpless look, lightly tapped his toe on the ground, and leaped up effortlessly, grabbing the kite that Princess Rong Huan had struggled to reach.

Princess Rong Huan looked up at him, hands folded across her chest as she clapped and cheered, "Huo Cheng is amazing!"

As if immune to Princess Rong Huan’s spontaneous praise, Huo Cheng’s reaction remained cool, but upon closer look, a faint smile could be seen in his eyes. He handed the paper kite to Princess Rong Huan.

She took it, about to release it into the air again, when she heard Huo Cheng’s merciless interruption, "Princess, it’s time to go back and study."
