After saying that, Shi Xi blinked sincerely. “That’s it!”

Xie Yunzhou: Do you think I believe you?

“I’ll push you back. Rest early.” Xie Yunzhou was expressionless. He did not expect to hear anything good from Shi Xi.

As long as he didn’t die of anger.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the charity banquet hosted by the royal family.

Sena had picked out an extremely gorgeous palace evening gown for Shi Xi. The dark red skirt was eye-catching but not ostentatious. The golden waistline outlined her slender waist. On the flat collar, her snow-white skin made her collarbone even more obvious.

“There are golden peonies and butterflies on the hem of the dress. When you dance, they will sway with the hem of the dress. It’s a pity that the Princess Consort can’t dance,” said Sena regretfully.

“It’s okay. I’ll wear it when my legs are better,” Shi Xi said nonchalantly.

“You can only wear it once,” said Sena. “You can’t wear it again.”

Shi Xi thought to herself that it was really a waste.

What kind of charity banquet was this?

Aristocrats in clothing are thrifty and charitable.

Sena brought over two jewelry boxes and asked, “Princess Consort, which necklace do you want to wear? Is it this pigeon blood red? Or emerald?”

“Pigeon blood red.” Shi Xi quickly made a decision. The pigeon blood red gem was pure and bright, and there was a ring of diamonds around it. It matched her gown very well.

She would save the emerald one for the next time she wore a green gown.

Oh my, it seemed like there wouldn’t be a next time.

Shi Xi thought.

“I’ll put it on for you.” Sena put the necklace on Shi Xi’s neck and adjusted it before praising, “Princess Consort is really beautiful and elegant. No one is more suitable to wear a ruby necklace than you.”

Shi Xi looked at the mirror.

The ruby was as bright and pure as the blood of a pigeon, making her skin fairer.

“It’s very nice. Not bad.” Shi Xi nodded in satisfaction.

Which girl didn’t love gems?

Although Ryan had placed her under house arrest in the palace, he had never mistreated her in terms of food, clothing, and housing.

Everything was done according to a princess consort’s standards.

It was no wonder that they wanted to continue living this extravagant life.

Who wouldn’t want to wake up from a 120-meter-square bed every day and be massaged by a maid?

“Princess Consort, are you ready?” Ryan walked in from outside.

Upon hearing Ryan’s voice, Shi Xi instantly woke up from her dream of sleeping on the 120-meter-square bed.

Thinking about how she had to marry this person to become a Princess Consort, Shi Xi instantly gave up.

Shi Xi: I have a dream

“Your Highness,” said Sena respectfully, “I’ve already dressed the Princess Consort.”

Shi Xi realized that Sena’s attitude toward Ryan was much more respectful than toward her.

Ryan sized up Shi Xi, his eyes filled with amazement as he praised, “Very beautiful!”

Shi Xi was a great beauty to begin with. Be it her sweetness or any other style, she could control it.

Today’s makeup was elegant and dignified. Her skin was whiter than snow, her eyebrows were as calm as a painting, and her red lips were as red as fire. She was wearing a palace dress specially made for her by the palace. The red and gold intertwined, making her look even more gorgeous and solemn.

Even though she was sitting in a wheelchair, she was still as arrogant as if she was sitting on a throne.

Ryan took out a small diamond crown and put it on Shi Xi.

The girl’s long hair was tied up and fixed at the back of her head. She was originally going to wear a pearl hairpin.

Now that she was wearing a small diamond crown, she looked even more luxurious.

“Can I wear this?” Shi Xi was not familiar with the rules of the royal family and asked, “Isn’t it only the Queen who can wear the crown?”

“You are the Princess Consort, so you can wear the silver crown. Come on, let’s go to the banquet.” Ryan laughed loudly..
