And... is Prince Gong really that handsome?

Qin Shushen's gaze fell on the wheelchair where Yu Nanqing was sitting. It was a pity that he was a cripple, otherwise such a good thing would definitely have been hers.

Suppressing their thoughts, Su Muqing and Su Shushen exchanged a glance and then bowed respectfully, saying, "This humble woman greets Prince Gong."

Just then, the innkeeper's footsteps echoed down the hallway: "Coming! The delicious food is here!"

Even from afar, you could hear the shopkeeper's joyful voice. Just now, Qiuye told him that they were going to buy Fubaolou, and he was so happy that he would finally stop losing money.

However, as soon as he went upstairs, he saw two people at the door. He stared at them with puzzled eyes, then hesitated and carried the dishes past them, saying, "My two esteemed guests, your meal is ready. Please try it while it's hot."

The two distinguished guests wouldn't let them into the room, so they must be unwelcome. How could they be so tactless as to block the doorway?

The innkeeper placed the food on the table and said with a smile, "Don't be in a hurry, gentlemen. I have more. I'll go get more for you. Please eat first."

When he was in his hometown, everyone in the surrounding area said that the food he cooked was delicious.

Because he was a great cook, he decided to open a restaurant in the capital. He didn't have enough money, so he bought Fubao Restaurant at half price, but the business was so dismal.

After saying that, he picked up the tray and ignored the two people at the door, turning sideways to walk past them.

Anyway, the building will be sold soon, so he just needs to take good care of the owner and let the others do whatever they want.

Su Muqing: "..."

Qin Shushen: "..."

The shopkeeper ignored the two of them, and Su Wanyan and Yu Nanqing also ignored them.

Su Wanyan pushed Yu Nanqing to the table, checked his position, moved his bowl and chopsticks, and then sat down and served him a piece of braised meat.

Su Muqing frowned: "Your Highness, it's not easy for us sisters to meet. Why don't we sit down and have a drink together?"

"No." Su Wanyan placed another dish on Yu Nanqing's plate, refusing without even looking up: "I don't eat at the same table with people I don't like; it's disgusting."

"Isn't Your Highness being a bit too domineering?" Qin Shushen glared at her with dissatisfaction.

Su Muqing pursed her lips and looked at Yu Nanqing: "Your Highness, please forgive me. When the Princess Consort was in the Marquis's residence, she was also difficult to get along with. Your Highness must have suffered a lot of grievances while with the Princess Consort."

Su Wanyan: "..."

What is she babbling about?

Yu Nanqing suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Su Muqing: "You said she doesn't get along well with people in the Marquis's mansion?"

“Yes.” Seeing that Yu Nanqing finally paid attention to her, Su Muqing could hardly suppress her smile: “The Princess Consort doesn’t like to talk to people, she does everything in a sneaky way, she is stingy, and her personality is gloomy and cold. Many servants in the mansion do not like to be around the Princess Consort. I have also advised the Princess Consort several times, but… she seems to have misunderstood me and does not like me very much.”

Yu Nanqing frowned, a fire burning in his heart.

Su Wanyan, the treasure he cherishes in his heart, how dare such a person criticize her!

His face darkened, and his tone turned icy: "You... come here."

His voice was deep and firm, brooking no refusal.

Su Wanyan's heart tightened slightly: "...Yu Nanqing, take it easy."

She didn't think Yu Nanqing was trying to curry favor with Su Muqing. Judging from his expression, he was probably quite angry with Su Muqing. He couldn't afford to get angry, as anger would harm his liver.

However, she has been treating Yu Nanqing for more than two months, and his health has almost fully recovered... He should be fine.

As Su Wanyan was considering her options, Su Muqing was overjoyed and stepped forward to curtsy, saying, "It is my honor to have dinner with Your Highness."

Qin Shushen was unconvinced and wanted to follow her across the threshold, but Xiaobu stopped her outside.

Qin Shushen gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Xiaobu.

Su Muqing was still a short distance from Yu Nanqing, but the murderous intent in Yu Nanqing's eyes was palpable. He slightly raised his hand, signaling Su Muqing to come closer.

Su Wanyan rested her elbow on the table, her small hand covering her mouth with a mixture of concern and indifference. Should she stop her?

If they stopped Yu Nanqing from venting his anger, he wouldn't be able to do anything, but if they didn't stop him, they were afraid he would do something reckless.

For some reason, Su Muqing gave Su Wanyan a provocative look at this moment.

Su Wanyan: "..."

Forget it, she brought it on herself. Let's wait a little longer.

Su Muqing moved closer to Yu Nanqing with what she thought were graceful steps, and knelt before him with a curtsy: "Your Highness, what is it that you have summoned me for?"

With a handsome face devoid of expression, Yu Nanqing slowly reached out and grasped Su Muqing's neck.

Su Muqing's heart tightened slightly. She only wanted to seduce Yu Nanqing, but she didn't want to have any physical contact with him, after all, she was still an unmarried woman.

A blush crept across her face as she tried to pull away: "Your Highness, this is probably... um!"

Unexpectedly, Yu Nanqing suddenly tightened his grip and grabbed her throat tightly!

Su Muqing's heart tightened this time. Yu Nanqing didn't give her any room for explanation at all, and the feeling of suffocation spread throughout her body in the blink of an eye.

She stared in disbelief, her hands instinctively gripping Yu Nanqing's large hands tightly. Her mouth, slightly open from suffocation, forced out two words: "Your...Your Highness..."

What happened?

Why did he...?

Let go!

She...can't breathe!

Yu Nanqing was furious. He was not only angry at Su Muqing's slander of Su Wanyan, but also angry at himself. When Su Wanyan was slandered to the point of being worthless, he could only sit there blankly, too angry to say a word in rebuttal.

He didn't know what to say to hit Su Muqing's weak spot, nor how to refute her to shut these two lackeys up!

The more Yu Nanqing thought about it, the stronger his murderous aura became. His gloomy face could no longer be concealed as he tightened his grip on Su Muqing's neck.

Perhaps... we should just kill him like this.

Once you're dead, you can't say anything anymore!

"Your Highness... Your Highness... Spare me..."

Su Muqing didn't know what she had done wrong. She couldn't breathe at all, her eyes rolled back, and her delicate face was contorted in an ugly way because her throat was being choked.

Yu Nanqing was unaware of the immense force she had exerted; Su Muqing, kneeling on the ground, was practically suspended in mid-air.

"Ah..." Qin Shushen screamed in fright at the door!

However, before she could scream, Xiaobu covered her mouth first.

Qin Shushen's face turned deathly pale, and tears of terror welled up in her eyes. She trembled as she stared at the scene in disbelief.

"Yu Nanqing," Su Wanyan called out.

If she doesn't speak up soon, Su Muqing will really die.

Su Wanyan considered the consequences of Su Muqing's death. She knew that Marquis Yuanning would definitely fight Yu Nanqing to the death, and the charge of indiscriminate killing of innocent people would fall on Yu Nanqing's head.
