Chapter 21

"Aiya, don't go! Let's work out this matter first. This Prince feels that it's feasible, too. Using a mouse to chase someone away. Hahaha, that scene is really fun to think about." Ye Lanchen was currently in high spirits, so he naturally didn't want Tang Kexin to leave. So he quickly blocked her path.

Normally, he loved to play in great enthusiasm. Although he was already 18 years old, he did not have the dignity of a prince, and of course, he did not have the talent for scheming and plotting, which was a given when you were from imperial family.

"Yes, I can also add some special effects, like a few firecrackers…" Being stopped, she naturally couldn't leave. Tang Kexin could only try her best to create the image of herself messing around.

Even the normally crazy Ye Lanchen was stunned when he heard her words. He immediately clapped his hands and said, "Good, that's a good idea! Let's do it that way, then! Pfft!"

"Tang Kexin!" The Prime Minister was so angry that his face turned green. Special effects? Firecrackers? It was truly a shame that she could think of such things. Why did he have such a daughter?

"Your Highness, my daughter is so mischievous. I've let you down." The Prime Minister turned to face Ye Lanjue, his expression somewhat restrained.

Ye Lanjue didn't respond to the Prime Minister's question. He looked at Tang Kexin with eyes as bright as the stars and the moon, his lips curled into a smile.

"Miss Tang is really…" His words purposefully paused for a moment, and then the corner of his slightly curled lips began to move in a profound and gentle manner. He then slowly added another two words, "...very special."

His tone was obviously much more serious with these two words, as if he had a deeper meaning that no one could fathom.

Tang Kexin's heart skipped a beat. He knew that the 'special' he mentioned was not as simple as it seemed.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your praise." Although Tang Kexin's heart was trembling, her face did not reveal any change. She sincerely accepted the man's 'praise'.

The Prime Minister felt a flock of crows flying all over him. Was the Third Prince praising her daughter? But was it really a praise? Obviously not, this girl had done it!

However, the Third Prince had always been a cold and reserved person. He would never care about matters that had nothing to do with him. And yet...? What was going on today?

"Pfft! This is the first time I've heard Third Imperial Brother praising someone. It's not everyday the Third Prince of this Kingdom would praise someone, unless that someone is remarkable..." His words paused as he looked at Tang Kexin with eyes full of smiles. Although Ye Lanchen loved to play around, but he wasn't stupid. He could naturally tell that the praise his brother had uttered wasn't that simple.

His eyebrows shot up as he asked, "Have you ever offended my third brother in any way?" Of course, Ye Lanchen's was joking, but the listeners had taken it seriously.

The entire being of the Prime Minister froze subconsciously. This daughter of his had offended the Third Prince? When? It couldn't be, right?

The Third Prince's eyebrows moved almost barely.

"How could I offended His Highness? Firstly, I didn't use a wolfhound to chase His Highness off. Secondly, I hadn't caught any mouse yet to use it to chase him away…" Tang Kexin pretended not to do anything with Ye Lanjue. She was completely focused on the matter.

It looked like she wasn't the only one who took the statement of the Fourth Prince beyond what it meant...

"Xin'er! Enough already." The Prime Minister's expression changed. He really wanted to gag her. This girl still dared to say something atrocious.

"Pfft!" Ye Lanchen laughed heartily. "I don't think there would be another person in the world who would dare to speak such words. I wouldn't even dare to think of the possibility of a second person. I'm just casually saying those words, Prime Minister. Please don't take it to heart." Ye Lanchen felt that Tang Kexin's foolish illness had just been cured, so she naturally didn't understand many things.

However, the cold and reserved Third Prince, who treasured words like gold, once again opened his mouth. His words that sounded light and faint, didn't have any emotion. Although it didn't have any killing intent, it was still enough to make Tang Kexin tremble in fear, "But given Miss Tang's courage, she might really would have..."
