I'm competing with the male lead for a woman[GL]

Chapter 33: Your Highness returns to the palace with respect

"Did you forget?"

Xiao Jinjing remained silent for a moment.

The system seemed to have nothing to do with her, and she couldn't even bring herself to mention the famous statement "love is the downfall of a nation" if she wanted to save face.

The system said, "..."

At this point, Xiao Jin met Chu Shao's smiling eyes and could only force herself to say, "I haven't forgotten."

"Oh, is that so? But whether your highness forgets or not doesn't make much of a difference. It's like this box of spring mountain wind and the rain that White Lady hated, they're all things of the past now."

Chu Shao closed the box of spring mountain wind, and the rain and mist that had filled the bamboo curtains dissipated, leaving only the light that leaked through the cracks in the bamboo strips.

Her tone was still calm, like a piece of warm jade held in the palm of her hand. It was like a sigh of satisfaction, with a lazy ending that carried a hint of weariness.

Xiao Jin nodded in agreement, after all, these were all problems left to her by the previous owner, and she was just an innocent victim.

Unexpectedly, Chu Shao slowly approached her, took her hand, and lightly touched the red marks on her wrist with her cool fingertips. She smiled and said, "You can forget about the past, but you can't forget our alliance, because we are accomplices, so now you must remember me."

Xiao Jin looked into Chu Shao's eyes and was stunned for a moment.

The other party's touch was very light, and it was slightly itchy, making her subconsciously want to withdraw her hand, but in the end she didn't.

Because Chu Shao's eyes were beautiful, when they curved up, they were like the slightly rolled bamboo curtains, revealing an inch of moonlight.

Enchanted by such a gaze, after a while, Xiao Jin withdrew her hand and nodded lightly.

Of course, most of the reason was because she knew that Chu Shao was not normal, so it was undoubtedly the best choice to go along with her words.

Besides, it was quite easy to remember Chu Shao's face, and it wasn't a false statement against her will.

Although Xiao Jin withdrew her hand, Chu Shao's happy mood diminished slightly, but after hearing her words, she raised a satisfied smile.

"Now that I have your highness answer, I can focus on the play."

The play on the stage was still ongoing, but no one could really tell what it was about, neither the actors nor the audience.

When Bai Zheng raised the statue of Prince Yan, the Fourth Prince's face became extremely ugly.

What should he thank Xiao Jin for? Thank her for taking his bride away?

He didn't like Chu Shao. The Emperor gave him the woman that the Crown Prince didn't want, just to appease the Yao Country's remnants, which was already enough to make him angry.

And now, halfway through, Xiao Jin came out and publicly stole his woman. It was simply adding insult to injury.

The Crown Prince knew the Fourth Prince's temperament, but he felt that his actions had become increasingly arrogant lately, and it was time to suppress him.

So he said to the fourth prince, "Fourth brother, apologize to Miss Bai and come back to the palace with me. The empress Mu has also been thinking of you recently. Besides, Princess Zhao Yang is about to return to the capital, don't make her worry."
