Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child

63 Shen Junzhi

Yu Qianqian had originally planned to go to the Langjun Imperial Palace. After receiving Shen Junzhi’s letter, she changed her mind at the last minute and decided to go to the Joyous Imperial Tea Shop first.

The location of the Joyous Imperial Tea Shop was very good, and there was an endless stream of customers.

There were many guests in the lobby on the first floor, talking loudly. The waiter shuttled between the many tables with a teapot in his hand, looking at ease.

Yu Qianqian met Shen Junzhi in a private room on the second floor.

After not seeing him for many years, he had grown much taller. The youthfulness on his body had faded, but the gentle temperament between his eyebrows was still there.

He was wearing a moon-white long-sleeved robe, and his skin was even paler than usual. His figure was slightly thin, but his posture was very straight, giving off the elegant aura of a gentleman.

Shen Junzhi smiled at her when she saw Yu Niaoniao walk in. That smile was like a spring breeze in March that could melt one’s heart.

“Niaoniao, long time no see.”

“Brother Junzhi!”

Yu Niaoniao rushed over, wanting to give him a big hug like she did when she was young.

But her mind suddenly recalled Duke Lang’s instructions.

“Don’t touch men casually in the future.”

At the same time, she recalled Duke Lang’s cold eyebrows. She shuddered involuntarily and stopped in her tracks, forcing her outstretched claws back.

With their current age and status, they really couldn’t be as casual and intimate as before. They had to avoid arousing suspicion.

Shen Junzhi took in her movements and changes in expression, and the smile on his face faded.

“Niaoniao has changed a lot.”

She was not as close to him as before.

Yu Niaoniao did not notice the abnormality in the other party’s emotions and smiled casually. “Do you think I’ve grown much taller?”

Shen Junzhi looked her up and down. “You’ve indeed grown up. You’re a big girl.”

Yu Niaoniao sat down beside him and pretended to be mature.

“Brother Junzhi has grown taller too!”

Shen Junzhi smiled at her, his eyes as gentle as water. “I ordered some food. They’re all your favorite.”

“Brother Junzhi is so good to me!”

Yu Niaoniao called Dang Gui over and gave both parties a simple introduction.

Shen Junzhi nodded slightly at Dang Gui and said gently, “Thank you for taking care of Niaoniao these few years.”

Dang Gui sighed in her heart as she greeted him. Miss was right. This Young Master Shen was indeed a gentle person. They were childhood sweethearts and had a deep relationship. Logically speaking, the two of them should be a match made in heaven.

Unfortunately, fate played tricks on them.

The emperor had already given Miss and Duke Lang a marriage. It was impossible for Miss and Young Master Shen to marry again. The two of them could only bury their feelings deep in their hearts…

Unknowingly, Dang Gui had already imagined a melodramatic love triangle.

Yu Niaoniao asked as she ate her refreshments.

“Why did Brother Junzhi suddenly come to the Imperial Capital?”

Shen Junzhi said, “To be honest, my house is in the Imperial Capital.”

Yu Qianqian was very surprised. “So you’re from the Imperial Capital! You should have said so earlier. Where do you live? I’ve never heard you mention this before.”

Shen Junzhi said, “This teahouse is under my name. If you want to find me, you can just come here.”

Yu Niaoniao teased, “I didn’t expect you to be so rich. Should I call you Boss Shen in the future?”

Shen Junzhi smiled helplessly. “Call me whatever you want.”

He picked up the teapot. His well-defined pale fingers contrasted with the dark green handle. Tea was poured into a cup and pushed in front of Yu Niaoniao.

“I heard about you and Duke Lang.”

Yu Niaoniao stopped drinking her tea abruptly.

Shen Junzhi looked at her steadily. “Is it true?”

Yu Niaoniao put down her teacup and said in distress.

“It’s a long story.”

Shen Junzhi said kindly, “It’s still early. You can talk slowly.”
