Chapter 78 The Lonely Prince

  Seeing Xia Xingxin cry, Ouyang Hengxi looked very flustered, glancing around before hastily grabbing a few tissues to wipe away Xia Xingxin's tears.

  "Oh no... you pulled on my eyelashes..."

  "Sorry, sorry... I've never wiped away someone's tears before..."

  "Alright... I have no more tears..."

  "Oh... that..." Ouyang Hengxi seemed to have remembered something, jumped off the bed, rummaged through a nearby storage cabinet, and pulled out a large package of cookies. "Want some?"

  "Are these the prince's cookies? Wow... they look really expensive... can I eat them?"

  Ouyang Hengxi nodded at her.

  Sitting on the hospital bed with Ouyang Hengxi, munching on cookies together, Xia Xingxin had a blissful smile all over her face, "It's really great..."

  "What did you say?"

  "I said it's great sitting with Wang Zi eating cookies together, and they're so expensive too. Feeling really happy..."

  "Hehe..." Ouyang Hengxi revealed a rarely seen smile. Having a girl like her by his side made him feel very happy...

  "Right! What's your name, prince?" Xia Xingxin asked while eating cookies, her bright and clear big eyes staring at Ouyang Hengxi's face.

  "Don't tell you ~ just call me prince..."

  "...then I'll tell you my name, and in exchange, Prince, you can tell me yours?"

  "Don't... I'll just call you Xiao Yao, no need to know your name."

  "What's with this name...?"

  "The name of the prince's maid..."

  "Shouldn't it be called Little Servant?"

  "That doesn't sound good, I've thought of a better one, let's just call you Xiao Yao..."

  "...that...prince, huh...it's okay if you don't want to know my name...but I want to know the prince's name..." Xia Xingxin put down the cookie and blinked at Ouyang Hengxi with a pitiful expression.

  "Hey... why are you looking at me like that..." Unbelievably... he was actually made nervous by her appearance, his heart racing...

  "Tell me... won't you tell me, Prince?" Xia Xingxin moved closer to Ouyang Hengxi and gently tugged on his sleeve.

  "Uh... okay..."

  "Hmm..."

  "But there's one condition..."

  "Huh?!"

  "...You often accompany me... Accompany me until I become your princess that day... I'll tell you..."

  "Great, great!" Hearing that she might become a princess, Xia Xingxun nodded her head excitedly...

  Looking at her extremely happy appearance, Ouyang Hengxi smiled even more gently...

  In the following days, Xia Xingxin came to the hospital on time to visit Ouyang Hengxi.

  One day, Xia Xingxin looked at Ouyang Hengxi with a curious expression and asked: "Prince... you don't seem to be sick, why are you still staying in the hospital? Is it because every day there are several beautiful nurse sisters who bring you delicious food? You don't want to leave here?"

  "It's not... Nurse Sister doesn't have Xiaoyu's good looks... delicious food isn't delicious without Xiaoyu either..."

  "Hehe... Prince Wang said that Xiao Yu is very happy... So it's because of Xiao Yu coming to see you every day that you don't want to leave the hospital?"

  Ouyang Hengxi shook his head, "Not really..."

  "Uh..."

  "Dad and mom bought the hospital... Let the doctor take good care of me for a while... So I'm not allowed to leave the hospital... Have to stay here for a while..."

  "Wow... your parents are so concerned about you... and they're also very rich..."

  Ouyang Heng lowered his eyes, and his eyelashes covered up the sadness at the bottom of his eyes. Perhaps he didn't want Xia Xingyin to see...

  "They have a lot of money, no doubt... but they don't care about me..."

  "Huh?! How can that be... Didn't the prince's dad and mom buy the hospital for him?"

  "Is that what you call caring about me?"

  "Huh?... Isn't it..."

  "If you care... why haven't you come home to see me in all these years..."

  “……”

  "Concerned words... Why in my impression... On my birthday, none of them said a word of 'Happy Birthday' to me? They devoted all their time to work and didn't even have a spare moment to say 'Happy Birthday' to me... They don't love me..."

  "Prince..." Xia Xingxin stretched out her hand from behind Ouyang Hengxi's back, wrapped it around his waist, and pressed her cheek against his back.

  Ouyang Hengxi was taken aback, her warmth making his body as stiff as a sculpture, because he was afraid that if he moved even slightly, this feeling would immediately disappear...

  "Don't be sad, Prince... Xiaoyu will accompany you... wherever the prince is, Xiaoyu will accompany the prince..."

  "Really?..."

  "Ah! Really!"

  "Then... add one more point... This sentence warms my heart..."

  "What?" Loosening Ouyang Hengxi, looking at Xia Xingxin in confusion, "What plus one point?"

  "Very well, I'll let you be my princess... You've earned one point so far... So later on, you have to say more things that warm my heart..." Ouyang Hengxi gently stroked Xia Xingxin's hair, gazing at her with deep affection.

  After Ou Yang Heng Xi was discharged from the hospital, Xia Xing Yin often went to his home to visit him, chat with him and play together.

  Ouyang Hengxi's loneliness gradually faded under Xia Xingxin's accompaniment for many days...
