Prince Charlie wanted to seize the throne, so he asked An Yichen to help with suggestions. Ye Xinya wandered around the castle alone with nothing to do. Most of the servants here knew that she was Prince Charlie's distinguished guest, so they all treated her with respect. .
Ye Xinya was admiring and taking photos while looking like a tourist. However, when the tourist wandered to another courtyard, she walked in curiously.
This place is obviously much larger than the place where they live, and it is also much more luxurious. There are all kinds of extremely precious flowers planted in the garden. The most conspicuous one is the pot of orchids.
Anyone who cares about raising orchids must be a person with elegant taste. Ye Xinya has already developed a good impression of this person before meeting the owner.
There is a pavilion in the garden. There is an easel in the pavilion. It seems to be like a piece of clothing. It's just...
Ye Xinya frowned. The proportions of this dress are not very good, and the color matching is a bit mixed. Although the style is very fashionable, it is a pity to design it like this.
Due to professional habits, Ye Xinya decided to change it. Well, if I make a few changes, it will definitely be a perfect masterpiece.
So Ye Xinya sat down in the pavilion. She put the easel in front of her eyes and adjusted the height. She picked up these colored pencils and drew them carefully. However, out of respect for the owner, Ye Xinya took down the painting beforehand. Start over. Instead of continuing to paint on other people's paintings.
The pencil seemed to be particularly flexible in Ye Xinya's hands. She could control it at will. After drawing the design draft, Ye Xinya drew the renderings on another piece of paper.
After looking at it, hmm, I'm quite satisfied.
So I put down the brush, rubbed my arms, and planned to stand up and walk away silently, hiding my merit and fame. However, when I turned around, I unexpectedly found that a woman behind me had been looking at her for a long time. In other words, she was just looking at her designs.
The woman was wearing the unique clothing of her country. A pale pink and white gauze softly covered half of her face. However, it could not hide the dignity and elegance of her body.
After working as a designer for so many years, Ye Xinya still has some discernment. Judging from the other person's temperament, she should be a princess or a princess or something. She is well-educated.
Ye Xinya smiled awkwardly. "Sorry, my hands were itchy for a moment." She didn't know if the Chinese counterpart could understand her.
The woman smiled politely at her. It was obvious that she understood. "You painted very well." She was not very fluent in Chinese, but she spoke clearly every word.
"I just made slight modifications based on your drawing. So the real one is you." Ye Xinya maintained the most basic politeness.
"I really want to be a fashion designer. However, the system at home does not allow it." The woman's voice is soft and her petite body makes her very protective.
Ye Xinya smiled. "Design is something you can write and draw at any time as long as you like it. It doesn't have to be a profession."
"Oh. Why." The other party was obviously very interested.
"As a profession, you will inevitably distort your original intention in order to cater to the public. It will be very painful." Ye Xinya explained friendlyly. "Customers are your God. So if you want to continue to survive in this industry, you must win Customers' favor. But sometimes, customers' needs and your ideas are completely different things."
"You seem to know a lot about this industry."
"Unfortunately, I am a person in such a contradiction." Ye Xinya said in a self-deprecating tone.
"You are a designer..." The other party was obviously surprised and excited. However, after being surprised, he felt that his reaction seemed to be too much. He quietly stuck out his tongue. "I'm sorry. I was just too surprised."
Ye Xinya smiled and clearly expressed that she didn't mind. "My name is Ye Xinya. I am a friend of Prince Charlie. You are..."
"It turns out he's my brother's friend." When she heard that she was Prince Charlie's friend, the woman's last guard dropped. Prince Charlie didn't have many friends, and even fewer brought them home. "I'm his sister." clear."
"It turns out to be Princess Shuiqing."
"Since we are so in tune with each other, why not let me show you around."
"Okay." It's great to have a free tour guide. And this princess doesn't have any airs of being a princess at all. She seems to be easy to get along with.
However, at this time, a servant hurried over and whispered something into Princess Shuiqing's ear. The princess's face immediately showed a look of disbelief that was even more exaggerated than before.
"Really..." If she hadn't had a good tutor, the princess might have jumped up regardless of her image.
"I'm in the prince's room now." Seeing the princess happy, the maid also became happy.
Princess Shuiqing, who was about to leave with the maid, suddenly remembered that there was Ye Xinya beside her, so she smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry. I have something urgent at the moment. So..."
"It doesn't matter. It's just a casual walk around anyway. I can do it alone."
Shui Qing bowed apologetically and walked away quickly.
Ye Xinya looked at her hurried back and couldn't help but feel curious. She was so excited. Could it be that she was going to meet her sweetheart.
Suddenly, Ye Xinya realized an extremely serious problem. Her sweetheart was in Prince Charlie's room. Seeing that princess was so surprised, she must be uncommon. Damn, could it be An Yichen...
Wouldn't it be so bloody?
No one is allowed to enter or exit Prince Charlie's room.
An Yichen was wearing a pure white shirt. He listened to Charlie talk about the situation. He had a beautiful face, a resolute outline, and a cold and compelling temperament. In front of outsiders, An Yichen always looked like a cold and domineering king. Pure of heart and few desires. Iron-fisted and cold-blooded.
A few years ago, a war broke out between Country H and Country E. The other party asked for Princess Shuiqing in exchange for peace. Prince Charlie refused. The other party threatened to use its powerful military power.
At that time, An Yichen happened to be a guest at Prince Charlie's house, so he made suggestions behind the scenes. Within three months, the army approached the palace of Country H. Country H was forced to sign a long-term peace treaty with Country E.
Recently, Prince Charlie was planning how to seize the throne. He met An Yichen on the road. So how could he let go of such a good opportunity so easily.
In country E, the system is relatively backward. Basically, whoever has more power is the king and the boss. So to seize the throne, the most direct way is to fight.
But how to fight to obtain the maximum benefit with the minimum sacrifice. This is An Yichen's specialty. What a businessman values most is to obtain the maximum benefit with the minimum investment and minimum risk.
At this time, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open. Princess Shuiqing was so reckless for the first time. However, when she heard that An Yichen was coming, she was completely desperate.
Unexpectedly, she could still see him. After so many years, he was here again.
An Yichen was thinking about things seriously. When he heard such a loud noise, he subconsciously raised his head. His beautiful face was instantly reflected in Shui Qing's eyes.
It's him. It's really him.
Compared to the first time we met, he has obviously become much more mature and resolute. The youthfulness and frivolity in him has completely faded away. Instead, what is more is his strategizing kingly aura, the aura of a confident, wise and successful man. His sharp edge has turned into a resolute and restrained charming temperament. However, no matter how he changes, he will always be An Yichen.
But there is no doubt that An Yichen like this is more charming and more like a man. She has matured a lot over the years, and he has been polished by hardships to become even more charming.
"Princess Shuiqing." After a moment of surprise, An Yichen bowed his head slightly and saluted her.
"..." Shui Qing was obviously stunned for a moment. He remembered that An Yichen had always been cold in the past. He would never take the initiative to say a word to her or even look at her.
"Chen. It's really you." Shui Qing suppressed the excitement in her heart and showed her greatest elegance.
An Yichen nodded. "Long time no see. How are you?"
The sudden concern made Shui Qing's heart feel like it was flying. In the past, he always answered her questions coldly. At that time, their relationship was a bit awkward. She was originally not good at words. But when she didn't speak, he was cold. He kept a straight face and kept silent. When she asked questions, he would answer in the most concise language.
But now, he is actually taking the initiative to care about her..
"I'm still the same. What about you?"
"I'm fine." An Yichen chuckled. The corners of his thin lips turned into a charming smile. "By the way, I also brought my wife with me. I'll introduce you to you later."
"..." The heart that was floating in the air suddenly fell. His... wife...
"She should be resting in the room now. I will call her over during dinner. She is a very easy to get along with. You will like her." An Yichen was very reserved, but he praised his wife generously. .
"You...you're married." Shui Qing looked at An Yichen in shock. He always looked so noble and lonely. Such a person would also get married.
"It's very early." An Yichen did not hide his happiness at all. "Our son is already five years old."
"..." Undoubtedly, this sentence was another heavy blow to Shui Qing.
Shui Qing asked him before if he had liked anyone. He said definitely that he did. He said that that was someone he shouldn't have liked. He was not even sure if the other person liked him. He said that this He wants no one except her in his life. He said that if she has someone she loves, he will be single for the rest of his life. He said, her name is Xiaoya.
When he said these words, his expression was so lonely, as if he had been abandoned. At that time, she was very angry. Angry at that woman she had never met before, such a good man. Why didn't she know how to cherish him?
But now, he seems to be very happy. He is completely different from the lonely person back then.
However, there was a polite knock on the door.
The door was not closed. An Yichen looked up and saw Ye Xinya standing at the door. The smile on his lips suddenly became brighter.
Shui Qing saw An Yichen's cold face suddenly turn warm. He couldn't help but turn around. What he saw was the woman he met in the garden today.
