The Prince ate ravenously, completely disregarding his image.
However, in the apocalypse, suddenly getting such delicious food, many people would react the same way.
So Janet and Joshua were not surprised at all.
"He's quite interesting," Joshua whispered to Janet. "He doesn't seem to have any airs of a prince."
"He's been like that since he was a child," Janet chuckled. "He used to play all day, not studying properly, causing a lot of worry for the King. But his skills are quite good; the King once hired the best fencing teacher for him."
"So you two grew up together?"
"Not exactly. We knew each other since childhood, but he was in the palace and I was at my own home. We only met during court banquets."
"I see."
No wonder they seemed a bit awkward, knowing each other but not too familiar.
On the other side, the Prince finished a meal set ravenously and felt it wasn't enough, so he decided to try a mystery box.
Old Six happened to be in the hotel lobby.
It carefully explained the mystery box machine to the Prince.
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask! This garlic will explain it to you!" Old Six said.
"How could I not understand? I get it after one explanation!" The Prince said, hands on hips.
Old Six looked at the Prince with a sense of relief and said, "I suddenly feel quite connected to you."
The Prince patted its round head and said, "I feel the same way!"
The two hit it off immediately, feeling like they had met too late.
Earlier, the Prince had already eaten a meal set in the restaurant.
So this time, he bought a snack mystery box and a snack mystery box.
"No wonder he's a prince, spending so generously!" Old Six praised.
"That's a given."
After buying the mystery boxes, the Prince sat down in the lobby's resting area to eat.
"This is so fragrant, what is it called?"
"Golden Butterfly Shrimp. Have you never had it before?"
"Not at all! And this, it's so delicious! Your hotel is truly magical, having everything."
"Of course, you should stay here with your soldiers, it's the right choice!"
The Prince ate snacks and drank cola.
After finally being full and satisfied, he slumped on the sofa and couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong? Why the long face?" Old Six asked.
The Prince was about to say something to it but then shook his head, "Forget it... you're just a garlic, you wouldn't understand this kind of thing."
"How can you be like this? Just now you said we were connected, and now you look down on me!"
"It's not that I look down on you, but I ask you, have you ever had a fiancée?"
Old Six's face showed rare confusion: "What's a fiancée? Can it be eaten?"
"See, you don't even know what a fiancée is, so how can I explain it to you?" The Prince said helplessly.
The two sat facing each other, both feeling troubled.
"Then go ask my sister!" Old Six slammed the table, "My sister is amazing, if you have any doubts, ask her, she can definitely enlighten you!"
"Who's your sister?" The Prince asked puzzledly.
"It's Boss Gu, my one and only sister."
The Prince's eyes lit up: "Right, Boss Gu looks capable, I'll go find her now."
Gu Wanyin had just taught the soldiers how to use the cafeteria machines.
At the moment, she was strolling in the garden with Jerry.
The two chatted as they walked.
Since they were in the garden, their conversation naturally revolved around flowers.
"Boss Gu, what kind of flower can express love?" Jerry asked casually.
This stumped Gu Wanyin, who had been single all her life.
She could only answer according to conventional thinking: "It should be a rose, a red rose, maybe there are others, but I only know the red rose."
Jerry nodded, looking thoughtfully at the fiery red roses not far away.
At that moment, Gu Wanyin heard Old Six's loud voice behind her: "Sister—Sister!"
Gu Wanyin: "..."
It sounded like something had happened to her.
Turning around, Gu Wanyin saw Old Six and the silly Prince heading this way.
"Is that the prince everyone in the hotel has been talking about?" Jerry asked.
Judging by the clothes the Prince was wearing, she could guess.
"Yes," Gu Wanyin whispered. "But don't be afraid, I think he's quite approachable."
Jerry was usually quite bold.
Hearing Gu Wanyin say this, she didn't flee in panic when the Prince approached.
Old Six politely greeted Jerry and then said to Gu Wanyin, "Sister, the Prince has something on his mind, he wants you to help him figure it out."
"What's on his mind?" Gu Wanyin asked.
The usually carefree Prince was now stammering, unable to say a word.
"Speak up!" Old Six urged.
Its temper couldn't handle the Prince's dawdling.
The Prince took a deep breath and finally said, "Don't tell anyone... In fact, I'm troubled about how to break off the engagement with Janet."
Gu Wanyin raised an eyebrow but wasn't too surprised.
It was obvious to anyone that there was no romantic feeling between the Prince and Janet.
"What? You and Janet are engaged?" Jerry exclaimed, her mouth wide open, as she hadn't been in the restaurant earlier. "And you want to break off the engagement? Why?"
"I didn't say she's not good!" The Prince quickly said. "It's just... to get married, one should marry someone they love. Janet is great, but she's not my type."
"Then, what does Janet think?" Jerry frowned and asked.
"She probably doesn't like me either," the Prince said, spreading his hands.
Jerry's expression relaxed a bit as she said, "If that's the case, just nullify the engagement. Who cares about these things now?"
"That won't do," the Prince immediately said. "Since we've met again in the hotel, we need to clarify things and officially break off the engagement. Otherwise, it's not fair to her or to our future partners."
Gu Wanyin looked at him, thinking that although the Prince seemed silly, he did have a princely demeanor when it mattered.
"Boss Gu, what should I do?" The Prince asked, looking troubled.
"It's not difficult," Gu Wanyin said. "Since you both have no feelings for each other, just tell her and break off the engagement, she won't disagree."
"That won't do..." The Prince shook his head. "It's better if she brings it up first."
"What do you mean?" Jerry asked unhappily. "You want to break off the engagement and make Janet the bad guy?"
