Enter?

Or not?

He was extremely thirsty, and going in for a drink shouldn't be a big deal.

But wouldn't that make him look weak in front of the young eunuch?

As he hesitated, Qiu Ming happened to come out of the small courtyard.

Seeing the Second Prince's flushed face and Xiao Luzi following a few steps behind, Qiu Ming immediately frowned and approached.

"Why is the Second Prince here?"

The Second Prince pressed his lips together, not answering.

Qiu Ming glanced at Xiao Luzi, and the two quickly understood the situation.

Facing Qiu Ming, the Second Prince, no matter how stubborn, couldn't maintain his cold demeanor.

But he didn't know how to start speaking.

Qiu Ming stepped forward and said, "Second Prince, please come inside. It's very hot outside, and you might get heatstroke."

Given an out, the Second Prince wasn't so unreasonable.

He glanced at Qiu Ming and nodded.

The three entered Huifang Courtyard. Although curious, the Second Prince kept his eyes forward, not looking around.

This behavior made Qiu Ming smile slightly.

He had some potential, but unfortunately, his health was poor.

Lin Wanyi was making the Emperor's regular clothes at that moment, so she was surprised when Qiu Ming brought the Second Prince in.

"Eunuch Qiu, who is this?"

"My Lady, this is the Second Prince. It's very hot outside, so I took the liberty of inviting him in for a drink and some shade."

"Of course."

Lin Wanyi smiled and just looked at him without saying more.

After Qiu Ming spoke, Xia An immediately went to pour water.

Due to Lin Wanyi's health, there was always warm water in the room.

Xia An brought a cup to the Second Prince and respectfully said, "Second Prince, please."

Though small, he had a big ego.

He let Xia An hold the cup without speaking or taking it.

Lin Wanyi tilted her head, quickly understanding.

She walked to the pot of warm water, poured herself a cup, and drank it.

Turning the cup upside down, she raised an eyebrow at the Second Prince.

It seemed to say, "It's not poisoned, drink it."

The Second Prince, his thoughts exposed, didn't feel embarrassed.

After thinking for a moment, he took the cup and drank it all.

The warm water had a bit of honey, giving it a sweet taste.

The temperature was just right, soothing his parched throat.

After one cup, he felt it wasn't enough and handed the cup back to Xia An.

But his eyes were on the pot.

Lin Wanyi smiled and instructed Xia An, "Pour another cup for the Second Prince."

"Yes."

Just two cups of water, but the Second Prince felt much less dizzy.

Now, he didn't know whether to sit or stand.
