Defying the Fate of Beheading

Chapter 200: Meeting with Miss Qian (5000 words)


After sending off Grace, Louis looked at the city as the night was falling. He didn't return to the Prince's Mansion immediately but started playing a local shooting game on the street.

The game is called "Shoot Down the Demon King."

It seemed to be a small game popular in various areas of the Star Continent.

It is said that the game was established to celebrate the first generation Hero Squad's defeat of the Demon King.

This always reminded Louis of the doll ring-toss and sandbag throwing games that you could see everywhere during the Spring Festival in his previous life.

The only difference is that it's quite a luxury to play on the Star Continent.

Because you need to use a Magic Staff that has the effect of the "Miniature Version of Youth Weakened Magic Arrow" as a shooting tool, which makes it quite costly.

The youth version of magic tools is still a tool!

Louis played for quite a while at a temporarily set-up stall on the food street. After refusing the contact information requests from countless girls, he could only choose to leave.

While passing by a specialty snack shop, Louis slightly quickened his pace.

Not long after, he passed by the door of the shop again.

A little later, on the third pass, after confirming that an adult was buying something in the snack shop, he finally walked in satisfied.

"Such snacks are childish for kids but just right for adults!"

Since everyone in the squad needs to do a task tomorrow, he's just preparing some small dishes for the mission, right!

Taking a round in the store, he picked up a thick bag of snacks and put it at the door.

Turning back, he discovered a new product just put on the shelf in the corner.

They looked a bit like the bursting mochi balls he had seen in his previous life.

Buy it!

Without the slightest hesitation, Louis reached out to grab it.

Any hesitation would be disrespectful to his previous life version, who was an ardent fan of mochi and dango.

But when reaching out, his hand hit another person's hand,

Louis turned around to take a look.

Seeing a familiar face.

"Oh? Miss Qian?"

Before Louis could finish speaking, he was pulled aside by Qian.

Qian looked at this young prince, whom she passionately matched as a couple, with a helpless face:

"Your Highness Louis, why are you here?"

Louis blinked and said:

"Tomorrow, we're going to complete a task."

"Olivia has been really into snacks lately."

Both sentences were true.

But they were unrelated in context.

And it had nothing to do with why he entered a snack store that kids enjoy the most.

It was Louis's one-sided statement of fact.

Anyway, he was not thick-skinned enough to show his love for sweets in front of acquaintances.

What?

You say all the customers at Mayer Restaurant know Louis often goes there to buy desserts?

How could that be the same?

That was Mayer voluntarily preparing for Louis.

What Mayer did, what does it have to do with me, Louis?

... Then Louis exerted a little force, wanting to take the burst mochi balls in the paper bag from the basket.

But from the other end of the paper bag came identical pulling force.

Louis looked at Qian, who was also tightly holding the bag, and suddenly laughed out loud.

Qian coughed once, a bit embarrassed, and let go of her hand.

She reluctantly said:

"I-I'll pay in a moment, just treat it as a thank you for your care for Her Highness Beatrice during this time."

"Hmm?" Louis shook his head and said, "If anyone should talk about taking care, it should be me."

Qian blinked without saying a word.

Indeed.

After all, he is Her Highness Beatrice's fiancé.

Qian sneakily glanced at the burst mochi balls caught in Louis's hand.

She dared to swear by her dwindling girlish heart that His Highness Louis was definitely a fellow foodie like her.

But thinking that the item she wanted to buy was snatched by her foodie companion, she inevitably showed a bit of unwillingness.

"Do you like eating this store's dango a lot?"

Louis glanced at Qian and said.

Qian rubbed her thumb and forefinger together:

"Just a little bit."

Louis understood.

Got it.

I got it all.

Universal fingertip!

Louis went to the counter and settled the bill, then walked towards Qian.

Qian stood up and said:

"I need to go back, not much rest time today."

Louis nodded and then said:

"I won't give my favorite food to others, but I can share it."

He tore off half of the dango.

The soft, sweet aroma wafted up from the dango.

Qian's throat moved slightly, subconsciously wanting to refuse.

Then, realizing that her hand had naturally taken the half dango.

She said, a bit embarrassed:

"Isn't this a bit too childish?"

Louis shook his head and said with a laugh:

"For adults, it's just right."

"And if I were still a child, I might not give it to you."

Qian's lips curved into a smile:

"If I were still a child, whoever gave it to me would be my good friend."

After speaking, both laughed.

Since she had been discovered, Qian stopped pretending.

She quickly ate the half dango in a few bites.

Louis looked at her cheeks, slightly puffed like a squirrel gnawing on a pinecone, laughed, and handed over the remaining half dango.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't give your favorite food to others?"

Qian said with a laugh.

Louis remained calm and unrushed:

"There are exceptions to a few cases, after all, Beatrice has troubled you these years."

Qian nodded slightly.

As expected of my shipped couple, no matter when, they always take time to show affection.

Even if the other half is not present right now.
