After Princess Rongyang and Zhong Ning left, Chu Yan dismissed all the servants, not even the hidden guards.
The two walked side by side under the shade of the trees, enjoying this rare quiet and peaceful afternoon.
Chu Yan walked on the road with his hands behind his back: "I heard from the shopkeeper that after I left that day, did the fourth prince cause trouble for you and Rong Yang?"
Su Yan shook her head indifferently: "It's not troublesome, it's just a fight for a hairpin. Didn't he get a bargain in the end? Speaking of which, I even earned you more than seven hundred taels of silver!" After finishing speaking Turning to look at Chu Yan with a smile in his eyes.
Chu Yan stopped suddenly: "I also heard that he is going to give you that hairpin." There was a strong smell of vinegar in his words.
Su Yan couldn't help laughing, this was the first time she saw Chu Yan being so childish, she turned around and said seriously to Chu Yan, "I only accept hairpins from you alone."
Chu Yan didn't reply, only a pair of phoenix eyes stared straight at Su Yan, the eyes were full of affection, Su Yan felt a little embarrassed when she looked at it, just when Su Yan couldn't help turning her head and wanted to move forward, Chu Yan suddenly grabbed Su Yan, and gently held Su Yan's face with both hands.
Chu Yan's hands were very hot, and Su Yan could even feel the thin calluses on his fingers and palms from practicing sword. Su Yan looked up at Chu Yan seriously, and responded to his strong affection with gentle eyes.
Chu Yan used his eyes to draw on Su Yan's face bit by bit, her eyes, her nose, her lips... Finally, she lightly kissed her forehead.
Chu Yan just wanted to kiss Su Yan. After thinking about it, he was afraid of being abrupt, so he finally chose to kiss Su Yan's forehead.
Chu Yan's kiss was very light, falling on Su Yan's bright forehead like a feather, and then left quickly.
Su Yan's body froze, and she stared blankly at Chu Yan. Chu Yan's kiss just now made Su Yan's heart thump. With his warm breath.
This was the first time Su Yan was kissed.
Chu Yan's face was calm, but he was also nervous in his heart. It was the first time he was so close to a woman without Su Yan's permission, for fear that Su Yan would annoy her.
Su Yan's reaction was beyond Chu Yan's expectation. Su Yan touched the place on her forehead that Chu Yan had just kissed, and suddenly grabbed Chu Yan's skirt to borrow strength, and quickly kissed him on the left side of his face with her tiptoe. After a moment, before Chu Yan could react, he blushed and ran away.
It is obvious that Su Yan is usually shy like a bunny, but occasionally she is bold and not like a woman.
Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he chased Su Yan like a teenager, without his usual calmness.
The two quarreled for a while, until Su Yan got a little angry and stopped. Sitting under a crape myrtle tree, Chu Yan looked at Su Yan's beautiful face and sighed: "Silly girl, I'm worried about you."
With a father like Uncle An Jing, Chu Yan couldn't help but worry.
Su Yan knew what Chu Yan meant, and said with relief: "Don't worry, I can take care of myself, besides, no one has been born yet who can plot against me."
Chu Yan was not at ease at all: "Before I leave, I will leave Lian Xin to you."
Chu Yan didn't give Su Yan a chance to refuse at all. After saying this, he boldly held Su Yan's hand. Su Yan retreated subconsciously, but Chu Yan tightened his grip even more domineeringly.
Su Yan glanced quietly at the hand she held with Chu Yan.
Chu Yan's slender hand firmly held her white hand in the palm, warm and strong, Su Yan struggled a few times to no avail, and obediently let him hold it.
It seemed that all of Su Yan's emotions changed as Chu Yan was about to leave.
Chu Yan held Su Yanrou's boneless hand, and inadvertently saw a few imperceptible needle holes on Su Yan's fingers, Chu Yan immediately took Su Yan's hand, and looked carefully: "How did you do it?"
Su Yan retracted her fingers and dodged her eyes: "It's okay, I accidentally pricked the handkerchief while embroidering it."
Chu Yan's attention was all on Su Yan's hands, and he didn't notice the abnormality in Su Yan's eyes: "When I get back, I'll buy you two maids who are good at needlework, so don't do needlework by yourself in the future."
Su Yan smiled lightly and declined, feeling that Chu Yan was making too much of a fuss.
The two stayed in the back mountain for a full hour, but Zhong Ning was still worried, so she ran over and called the two back.
After returning to Zhuangzi, Zhong Ning clamored to go fishing, Princess Rongyang responded immediately, but Su Yan only smiled and asked Chu Yan to take the two of them to play: "I didn't sleep well last night, I want to rest for a while, when I sleep well Come and find you again."
"Well, senior sister, you can go." Zhong Ning waved to Su Yan, and hurriedly went to Zhuangtou for a fishing rod.
Princess Rongyang also smiled and said, "Sister Yan, go back and have a good rest. I'll help you look after my cousin."
"I'll see you off." After sending Su Yan back, Chu Yan went directly to his room in Zhuangzi.
Lian Xin was waiting for Chu Yan here, and when he saw Chu Yan came back, he immediately told Chu Yan what happened in Uncle Anjing's mansion today.
From Su Yan's mouth, Chu Yan learned that the fourth prince is going to the Uncle Anjing's mansion today. Although he didn't say anything, he kept this matter in his heart. He specially ordered Lian Xin to go to the Uncle Anjing's mansion to inquire about the situation early this morning. .
After hearing this, Chu Yan felt very headache. It seems that he not only has to guard against other men who are interested in Su Yan, but also has to guard against his own father-in-law.
He had to solve this trouble thoroughly before leaving the capital.
Just as he was thinking about what to do, someone knocked on the door suddenly, and Zhong Ning's voice came in: "Chu Yan, I have something to do with you."
Zhong Ning called Chu Yan so loudly, Chu Yan was not only not annoyed, but also let Lian Xin politely invite Zhong Ning in.
As soon as Zhong Ning opened the door and entered the room, she found a stool and sat down with her legs crossed, then she picked up the fruit on the table and took a bite.
Lian Xin stood in the corner and looked at Zhong Ning with disdain. It was the first time he saw a woman so rude.
"What does Miss Zhong want from me?" Chu Yan's attitude towards Zhong Ning was a little cold, but it was much better than other women.
Zhong Ning didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Chu Yan's attitude. If Chu Yan showed great hospitality to her at this time, it would make her feel bad.
Zhong Ning took two more mouthfuls of the fruit. The fruit was quite sweet, but Zhong Ning felt a little astringent. Looking at Chu Yan, Zhong Ning was a little depressed: "I guess my senior sister has gone back to sell shoes. Since I know you want Let's go, she has been making boots day and night for the past few days. The style and size are just for you. What kind of virtue can make my senior sister treat you so infatuatedly."
Usually with her closest senior sister, she fell in love with a man, Zhong Ning is like a child who doesn't get attention at this time, a little unreasonable.
After hearing Zhong Ning's words, Chu Yan immediately stood up: "I'm going over now." To be honest, when Zhong Ning said that Su Yan made shoes for him, Chu Yan was so happy. But Chu Yan immediately thought of the needle holes on Su Yan's white fingers, and couldn't sit still.
He is distressed.
"If she likes to do it, let her do it. If she doesn't finish those pairs of boots during the day, she will definitely stay up at night." Zhong Ning's voice was full of complaints, but after finishing these words He just shook his head: "Forget it, why am I telling you this, I'm here to tell you something."
"Let's talk." Chu Yan nodded to Zhong Ning, his heart had already flown to Su Yan.
Zhong Ning slapped the fruit on the table, stared at Chu Yan and warned Chu Yan: "My senior sister is a poor girl. She has no mother since she was a child, and she was kidnapped by a kidnapper... Oh, don't talk about this, anyway, you If I dare to betray her in the future, I will directly poison your whole family with a few packs of Duanchang powder." While speaking, Zhong Ning took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve pocket and slapped it on the table as if threatening, but she didn't want to be overwhelmed by too much strength. The porcelain bottle was shattered all of a sudden, and the medicine powder inside was scattered all over the place. A few pieces of porcelain pierced into Zhong Ning's flesh, and blood beads immediately oozed out.
Lian Xin couldn't bear to look directly at her, wondering how there could be such a stupid woman in the world.
Zhong Ning was stunned for a moment, not wanting to break her skills, she endured the pain in her hands and said to Chu Yan: "You dare to betray my senior sister, you will end up in such a bad way!"
Chu Yan was dumbfounded by Zhong Ning's series of actions, but he still said firmly to Zhong Ning: "Okay."
Receiving Chu Yan's promise, Zhong Ning immediately failed, covered the wound on her hand and shouted to Lian Xin who was standing in the corner: "Hurry up and call my senior sister! Go!"
As soon as the words fell, Zhong Ning closed her eyes and fell to the ground.
