Chapter 244 The Spoiler is Coming
Chapter 244 The Spoiler is Coming
It was already quarter of an hour later when Xie Nanyuan finished packing.
It was already one o'clock in the morning, and the agreed time was almost here. Xie Nanyuan took Linze, whose eyes were bruised, out of the palace.
Unlike before, this time Xie Nanyuan did not ride a horse. Instead, he asked Linze to prepare a carriage with thick blankets laid in the carriage to reduce vibration and increase comfort.
Xie Nanyuan sat in the carriage, while Linze sat outside the carriage and drove. The master and servant went towards the Shen Mansion together.
Just as I arrived at the gate of Shen's Mansion and parked the carriage, I happened to meet Shen Qionghua coming out of the Shen Mansion with Shaoyao.
Xie Nanyuan curled the corners of his lips slightly, put his hand to his lips and coughed lightly. Lin Ze's mouth twitched slightly, and he called out loudly: "Miss Shen!"
When Shen Qionghua heard the voice, she looked over subconsciously. At this time, the car curtain had been lifted by Xie Nanyuan. When Shen Qionghua turned her head, her eyes happened to meet Xie Nanyuan's.
Shen Qionghua: “…”
Immediately turned around and pretended not to see it.
Just as she was about to walk towards her carriage, she heard Lin Ze shout again, "Miss Shen, the prince is waiting for you!"
Shen Qionghua: “…”
Now it’s no longer possible to pretend I didn’t hear it.
Shen Qionghua walked over and said, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Xie Nanyuan snorted coldly and said nothing.
His joy had already dissipated by half when Shen Qionghua pretended not to see him.
Seeing this, Lin Ze was speechless, but if the two of them were in a cold war and the prince was unhappy, he would be the one who would be in trouble.
I hope these two are fine.
Lin Ze, for his own sake, quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Miss Shen, I heard you're going boating with the prince today?"
"The prince specially asked me to prepare a carriage to pick you up. He didn't even ride the horse for this purpose. Please get on quickly."
After saying that, Lin Ze jumped off the carriage first, making room for Shen Qionghua to get on.
what?
Riding in the same carriage with Xie Nanyuan?
Shen Qionghua subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Linze had already taken out the footstool swiftly, and was looking at her attentively with a pair of eyes.
Xie Nanyuan also looked at her with dark eyes. When he saw Shen Qionghua looking at him, he immediately left her sight. However, his tightly pursed thin lips revealed his nervousness and uneasiness at the moment, with a hint of grievance.
Shen Qionghua was in a dilemma at the moment. She didn't want to anger Xie Nanyuan, so she had to get on the carriage.
After bending down and sitting down, the man opposite finally relaxed his expression a little, and his brows softened.
Shen Qionghua did not notice these subtle details of Xie Nanyuan as she was very nervous at the moment, but Lin Ze, his loyal subordinate, did notice them.
So, when Shaoyao got on the carriage and was about to lift the curtain, Linze decisively stopped her.
Shaoyao looked at him puzzledly.
Lin Ze said without blinking, "Miss Shaoyao, I'm sorry, but our prince doesn't like to be in the same carriage with other women."
Peony: "..."
Prince Rui has ill intentions towards the young lady. The carriage has such a small space, how can she leave the young lady alone?
Shaoyao opened her mouth and was about to say something, but Linze seemed to have anticipated it and said, "Ms. Shen is naturally not within this scope."
"If you don't want to sit in the front with me, then why don't you go back to the Shen Mansion? Don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Shen."
An Yi stopped her outside the door last night, and Shaoyao now feels that no one in Prince Rui's Mansion seems to be a good person.
How could I be at ease if Shen Qionghua went out alone with Prince Rui without anyone else?
What if the cruise ship is just a cover and King Rui wants to force himself on her?
Shaoyao thought she needed to protect her young lady, so she swallowed her anger and sat in the front with Linze.
After sitting down, she said, "Miss, don't worry, I'm right here in front. If anything happens, just call me."
Shen Qionghua responded from inside, and Shaoyao looked down at Linze, "You're not the one driving. Come on up, don't be late."
Linze: “…”
He stepped on the carriage, whipped the horsewhip, and the carriage drove away quickly and smoothly.
Inside the car, Xie Nanyuan and Shen Qionghua looked at each other in silence.
We were arguing on the bed last night, but we felt uncomfortable being in the same space during the day.
Of course this is Shen Qionghua's feeling.
Xie Nanyuan was keeping a straight face purely because of what happened just now, but his actions betrayed him.
Seeing that Shen Qionghua kept her head down, Xie Nanyuan calmly moved the pastries on the small table towards Shen Qionghua, then coughed lightly.
Shen Qionghua's attention was immediately drawn over.
On the table were her favorite flower tea and two snacks.
This... is prepared for her?
Shen Qionghua looked at Xie Nanyuan and saw him lifting the curtain and looking out of the car, looking completely indifferent.
Shen Qionghua hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and picked up a piece of cake and slowly tasted it.
Listening to the chewing sounds coming from the side, Xie Nanyuan's eyes fell on the scenery outside, and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The carriage drove all the way, and by the time it reached the lake, Xie Nanyuan had completely calmed himself down.
The carriage stopped, Linze and Shaoyao got off, and then Xie Nanyuan lifted the curtain and got out, followed by Shen Qionghua.
Shaoyao subconsciously wanted to go forward to help, but Linze immediately moved to the side to block Shaoyao's way.
Xie Nanyuan turned around in a good mood and extended his hand.
Shen Qionghua looked at the large palm in front of her with some hesitation.
Just as she hesitated, an excited voice called out, "Qionghua! I'm here!"
Shen Qionghua's eyes lit up, she placed her hand on Xie Nanyuan's palm, got off the carriage, ran towards him, and left as soon as she touched him.
Xie Nanyuan slowly withdrew his hand, looked at the figure coming, and slowly narrowed his eyes.
