They had only taken a couple of steps when a tall figure stood before them. He was slender and elegant.

Qi Yaojin was slightly taken aback, as if she had never seen such a good-looking person before. But who was this person?

"Wan Ge," Mu Qiluan called out slowly in a deep voice, and extended his hand to her.

Wan Ge threw herself into his arms: "Brother, you're here."

Seeing the scene before her, Qi Yaojin suddenly realized that he was General Mu.

Mu Qiluan took the cloak handed to him by his subordinate and tied it around the girl's neck. He knew that his little Wan Ge was not keeping warm properly again.

After Mu Qiluan finished tying the cloak, he gently patted her head, his eyes full of affection.

Qi Yaojin was deeply moved. It was so pleasing to see two such good-looking people standing together. And General Mu was so doting on Miss Yun!

More importantly, they're not even married yet, and they dared to do something so bold in public. I wonder when my simpleton will ever have that kind of courage.

Yes, Qi Yaojin has already met Fu Ziyan, but Fu Ziyan is not yet aware of her identity.

He had always thought she was a pampered young lady who never left the house, and he was already very satisfied that he could see her once in a long while.

However, every time Fu Ziyan proposed to marry her, Qi Yaojin would change the subject. Fu Ziyan didn't know why, but he still wanted to marry her no matter what.

…

At this moment, a man dressed in a python robe walked over, a smile mixed with mockery on his face. His gaze fell directly on Wan Ge.

Previously, the original owner of this body was determined to become the Crown Prince's consort and had made several advances towards the Crown Prince. Although she did so subtly that others could hardly notice, how could the Crown Prince not sense it?

Previously, the Crown Prince's target had always been the Prime Minister's daughter, whose family was indeed more powerful than the Yun family. Therefore, the Crown Prince had never noticed her before and seemed to have ignored the original owner of this body. Now, seeing Mu Qiluan do this, his gaze has fallen on Wan Ge.

"It's so lively here." The Crown Prince gently waved his folding fan, his gaze still fixed on Wan Ge.

Mu Qiluan frowned slightly, and at this moment the Crown Prince's expression became even more obvious: "Miss Yun, it's been a long time. How have you been these days?"

Just as Wan Ge was about to bow, Mu Qiluan grabbed her hand: "Wan Ge, you are Madam Mu, you do not need to bow to anyone."

Yes, several generations ago, the monarch had decreed that members of the Mu family would never have to bow to the monarch.

Mu Qiluan didn't need it before, and he won't need it now either.

"General Mu, it seems you're speaking too soon?" If I remember correctly, they're not married yet.

"What does Your Highness mean?" Mu Qiluan slightly raised his eyes, focusing all his gaze on the Crown Prince. His cold, murderous gaze sent chills down the Crown Prince's spine.

A gaze cannot kill, but in that instant, the prince felt the breath of impending death in the other's eyes.

Qi Yaojin gently tugged at her brother. She knew that Mu Qiluan held a very high position now and tried to persuade the Crown Prince not to be so hostile towards the general.

The crown prince merely glanced at her, his eyes filled with disgust, and immediately shook her off, even shoving her to keep her at a distance.
