Chapter 1116: Chapter 1116: A Rare Night (2)
In a moment, when Andre came out in casual clothes, Chongchong also happened to walk out of the room. She had already taken off the gorgeous dress Gan Yuan had prepared for her and changed into a comfortable summer outfit.
The clothes were also Gan Yuan’s. After all, she was still a young girl, her figure more slender than Gan Yuan’s, making the shirt a bit loose on her. One shoulder casually slipped down, her hair, which had been styled for the banquet, was now undone and draped over her shoulders, exuding a lazy sort of sensuality.
Noticing her collarbone peeking out from her neckline, Andre quickly averted his eyes.
"Let’s go!"
The two of them went downstairs together, where Andre’s bodyguard and assistant were waiting in the lobby and immediately approached them.
"Your Highness!"
Andre raised his hand at once. "I’m going out for a bit. You don’t need to follow me."
It was a rare opportunity to be alone with her; he didn’t want these guys ruining the atmosphere.
"But..."
The assistant looked troubled. Being abroad and at such a tense time, Andre’s esteemed status made them uneasy to relax even a little.
Andre frowned displeased, "Didn’t I make myself clear?"
The assistant dared not say more, quickly stopping in place to block the bodyguards behind him.
The two of them quickly walked down the stairs, causing Chongchong to chuckle softly.
"Seems like this is the trouble of being the Crown Prince, huh?"
Previously, while studying abroad at university, Andre was always low-key. Almost none of their classmates knew his and her identities. Back then, he wasn’t surrounded by so many bodyguards.
Andre sighed, "Sometimes, I really envy you and Brother Xiaoqi."
Chongchong turned her face and winked at him, "At least you don’t have to wear tinted glasses."
To avoid trouble, she had put on tinted contact lenses again to cover those uniquely striking eyes of hers.
"No!" Andre gently shook his head, "I love your eyes; they’re one of a kind in the world."
"So, everyone has their own troubles!" Chongchong walked out of the Royal Palace with him, immediately taking his arm. They quickly crossed an intersection before slowing down. Turning to look at Andre, she raised her hand to mess up his short hair, tilting her face for a moment. "This way, no one should recognize you! Now, you’re not the Prince, and I’m not the Princess. We can wander freely! What do you want to eat?"
Andre shook his head, "I don’t know. Do you have any recommendations?"
"I guess you’re tired of elaborate meals. I remember there’s a street ahead that should have a night market. Let’s go check it out."
As she spoke, Chongchong took out her phone, checked the map, and confirmed the direction.
"Let’s go, let’s take a look."
Not long after, the two young people arrived in front of a bustling street.
This street was an old city’s commercial street, which had now developed into a night market, selling small crafts and various snacks.
This was the busiest time in the night market, with vendors on both sides busily selling goods and haggling with tourists. The lights were not as bright as those in upscale malls but instead offered a warm human touch. The air was filled with a tantalizing aroma from unknown foods...
"Smells delicious!"
Chongchong sniffed and immediately dragged Andre to the front of a small stall with a queue.
"Why are we standing in line here?" Andre asked somewhat confused.
