Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 322 - Brother, They Ran Away

"Brother, you were right! These dumplings are so delicious," Weng Yu happily said.

Lei Wanxi agreed with him. "This is my favorite place," Lei Wanxi muttered and turned when he saw Sheng Li's back. But since Sheng Li was wearing the clothes of a commoner, he paid little heed to him. "Brother Nianzu missed this," Lei Wanxi stated and turned towards Weng Yu.

"Master, do you want more?" The vendor asked him.

"I am full. I might come again in a few days." Lei Wanxi pulled out a pouch from his pocket and handed the money to him. Weng Yu still had one dumpling stick left, so Lei Wanxi waited for him to finish. He pulled out his fan and started fanning himself.

The sky had turned red, and birds were returning to their respective homes. The people had lit the lanterns outside their respective shops.

Sheng Li titled his head and found Lei Wanxi was not looking at him. He was relieved. Lei Wanxi turned towards the direction where Sheng Li was standing when his eyes fell on Ying Lili. "Is she Sister Lili?" He murmured. "That hat looks like Sister Lili's." He drew his brows together and intently looked at Ying Lili.

"Brother, I have finished eating," Weng Yu asserted and looked in the direction where Lei Wanxi had focussed his gaze.

"Brother, what are you looking at?"

"Don't they look like the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess?" Lei Wanxi whispered in Weng Yu's ear, leaning closer to him.

"How could they come here? I think the Brother is mistaken," Weng Yu stated.

Lei Wanxi did not agree with the statement of Weng Yu. "Come, let's go behind them. They are walking away," Lei Wanxi stepped forward and closed the fan in his hand. Weng Yu followed his Brother. 'Why did Brother not tell me that he was coming to the market?' Lei Wanxi mumbled and hastened his steps.

Weng Yu had to run to match the steps of Lei Wanxi. "Brother, I think they are someone else," Weng Yu affirmed.

"No. Look at the physique of the man. Those broad shoulders and the way of walking. Only the Fifth Brother can walk like this." Lei Wanxi was confident in the deductions that he had made.

Ying Lili saw a Dragon Beard Candy stall and asked Sheng Li to buy one for them. "I can ask the Royal Chef to prepare one for you. Don't eat street food as you are still recovering," Sheng Li advised her.

"I have recovered. Look, my arm has healed," Ying Lili moved her arm. Lei Wanxi and Weng Yu were watching them from a certain distance. Lei Wanxi's suspicions were clarified by now.

Sheng Li looked at the sky and found evening was falling. He had to reach that place soon, but he could not even refuse Ying Lili's request. She hardly asked anything from him, and now they had come to the market, so he must fulfill her every wish. Sheng Li took her to the vendor's shop and requested one Dragon Beard Candy for Ying Lili.

"We also want to eat," Lei Wanxi suddenly said. Sheng Li was shocked to hear his voice, while Ying Lili was astonished to see Lei Wanxi and Weng Yu there. They both were wearing coned bamboo hats. A smile carved on her lips upon seeing them there.

"Uncle made three. Two for us and one for our lovely sister-in-law," Lei Wanxi stated, keeping a broad smile on his lips. Sheng Li squeezed his eyes tightly and put his hand around Lei Wanxi's shoulder.

Taking him aside, Sheng Li requested him to go away.

Lei Wanxi pouted. "Brother, it's my first time with you at a fair, and you're telling me to go away," Lei Wanxi whined.

"Wanxi, we can come some other time. Can't you see Lili and I are here–"

Lei Wanxi cut Sheng Li's words. "Brother, I know you two are here to enjoy. Then, take Weng Yu and me with you too. This is wrong, Brother. Earlier Brother Nianzu left us in the middle of the market," Lei Wanxi affirmed.

"But people may get suspicious of Ying Lili and me if you two will roam with us," Sheng Li tried his best in convincing Lei Wanxi.

Before Lei Wanxi could reply to Sheng Li, Ying Lili came to them, holding the candy stick in her hand. "Brother, have it!" Ying Lili humbly said. Lei Wanxi thanked her.

"Sister, one more candy is prepared. Let's go there," Lei Wanxi excitedly said. Ying Lili nodded and went towards the stall. Sheng Li rubbed his forehead with a forefinger.

Ying Lili looked at Sheng Li and found he was a little irked. He might want to spend time with her.

Lei Wanxi was paying for the Dragon Beard Candy when Ying Lili went closer to Sheng Li and grabbed his right hand. "I was coming there," Sheng Li muttered, faking a smile while Ying Lili stepped forward, dragging Sheng Li along with her. She started running, which startled Sheng Li.

Weng Yu, who was eating the candy, looked at them confusedly and shook the arm of Lei Wanxi, who was busy conversing with the seller. "Brother, Brother, they ran away," Weng Yu softly said.

"What?" Lei Wanxi immediately turned away and could not find his brother and sister-in-law. He chuckled and said, "They want to spend time together. I only wanted to tease Brother Sheng a little. No worries. I can do the same in the Palace." Lei Wanxi started eating the candy and told Weng Yu that they should leave for the Palace.

Ying Lili halted, and so did Sheng Li. Both were panting and found themselves deep inside the market. "Why did we run?" Sheng Li was happy that they got rid of the two Princes.

"Isn't this what you wanted?" Ying Lili questioned him. Sheng Li smiled while nodding his head. Ying Lili put her hand around his arm, and the two walked ahead.
