Chapter 645 Mercy
Ni'er was frightened by the scene. She didn't dare to look at it any longer. She quickly covered her eyes with her hands and walked quickly towards home.
"So the prince likes this kind of thing. He is really a playboy!" Ni'er muttered to herself as she walked.
Prince Li stumbled back home, his mind was blank. He had no idea how he got back, and he didn't know if anyone had seen him along the way.
He really didn't want to think about what happened today, because it was simply the most embarrassing day of his life.
Prince Li took a quick bath and then fell headfirst onto the bed, hoping to fall asleep quickly and forget all this.
However, even in his sleep, he could not find peace.
He dreamed that someone was pulling his clothes with astonishing force. He tried desperately to break free, but he couldn't get rid of the hand.
After a fierce struggle, Prince Li finally woke up from the nightmare.
The prince looked out the window and found that it was still a full hour before dawn.
The night was long, but the feeling of hunger was always there. After all, he hadn't eaten anything all night.
Fortunately, there was still some food in the house. Although it had already gone cold, in this hot weather, eating something cold could just help relieve the heat.
Prince Li stood up without hesitation, opened the food box and prepared to enjoy the food.
When he lifted the next layer of the food box, he was startled by an unexpected discovery - there was a visiting card lying there quietly.
Prince Li looked at it carefully in the dim moonlight. It turned out that it was sent by the young shopkeeper, probably to thank him for his help that day.
"Well, he is a sensible person." Prince Li secretly praised in his heart.
Although he is young, he is so knowledgeable about the ways of the world, which is rare.
He couldn't help but recall that he had heard that the young shopkeeper's family were ordinary farmers, and he became more curious: "What kind of family environment could raise such a well-behaved and sensible child?"
"Furthermore, she actually understood that the Queen Mother was invited by her on purpose that day. Such intelligence and insight are truly impressive."
"This little girl is really interesting."
Prince Li raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.
The next morning, just as the sun rose, the streets and alleys of the capital were already bustling with activity.
People were talking about what happened to Prince Li last night.
"Have you heard? Prince Li is really not good in that aspect!" One person said mysteriously to another.
"What? Are you serious?" another person asked in surprise.
"Oh, is this true? I saw it with my own eyes yesterday!" said the first person confidently.
"Tell us quickly, what's going on?" The people nearby also gathered around and asked curiously.
"Yesterday, Prince Li went to Zui Xiang Lou. He came out in the time it takes ordinary people to change clothes. Many people saw it!" The first person described it vividly.
"No way? I always thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true!" someone exclaimed.
"Oh, what a pity! Prince Li is such a good man, how could this happen?" another person said regretfully.
"But it's better this way. If he doesn't get married, it means he won't waste the girl's time." Someone agreed.
"My neighbor's little girl has always dreamed of marrying Prince Li. I have to go and talk to her and tell her to stop dreaming. If she marries him, she will be a widow. This time she should give up." Someone said.
In the early morning, the sunlight shone through the window onto Nier's face. She stretched and slowly walked out of the house.
As soon as she went out, she heard a noisy voice coming from the street, as if many people were talking about something.
Nier walked closer to the crowd curiously, wanting to hear what they were talking about.
When she came to a small stall, she decided to pretend to pick something up so she could eavesdrop on their conversation without being noticed.
She picked up a small trinket and fiddled with it seemingly nonchalantly, but her ears were perked up as she listened carefully to the conversations of the people around her.
Sure enough, she heard something about the prince.
"Have you heard? The prince went to that fireworks place last night!"
"Really? Hasn't he always been a chaste man?"
"Oh, who knows, maybe I've just been under too much pressure lately."
"But I heard he's not very good at that..."
Hearing this, Nier's heart was shocked.
It turns out that what I saw last night was correct. The prince was indeed out seeking pleasure.
However, this was the first time she heard about his shortcomings in that area.
The anger in Nier's heart gradually dissipated, replaced by a trace of pity.
She felt that the prince was a truly pitiful man. He seemed to be in a prosperous situation on the surface, but in fact he had such unspeakable troubles.
She was originally very angry about the prince's behavior last night, but now she was not angry at all, and even wanted to comfort him.
After all, this kind of thing is undoubtedly a huge blow to a man.
Ni'er thought that she knew some medical skills and might be able to help the prince cure this disease.
Moreover, the prince knew that I had medical skills, but he never mentioned it. He must have felt embarrassed.
Otherwise, the next time I see the prince, I can tentatively ask him if he needs help.
Thinking of this, Nier's mood gradually calmed down. She put down the small ornament in her hand and left the stall as if nothing had happened.
The prince sat upright on the armchair, narrowing his eyes slightly, and the events of last night kept emerging in his mind.
He thought to himself, "There will probably be a lot of rumors coming out again."
However, he didn't really care about it.
However, just as he was thinking about this carelessly, suddenly, he felt as if a string in his brain had suddenly broken.
This sudden feeling brought him back to his senses, and a strange emotion surged in his heart.
He realized that while he didn't care about the gossip, others might.
This kind of thing tends to spread quickly like wildfire, from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, and before long, everyone in the capital will know about it.
And that young shopkeeper...I'm afraid he will also know.
When he thought of this, the prince felt an indescribable embarrassment and awkwardness in his heart.
He couldn't help but wonder, "Why do I care so much about something I never cared about before?"
The prince's eyes fell on the desk in front of him, where a visiting card was placed.
He hesitated for a moment, reached out to pick up the visiting card, stared at the handwriting on it, and felt a little hesitant.
"It's not quite right to let a little girl see me alone."
