Xuanyuan Junyu, a prince of the Golden Jade Kingdom.

A prince who was second only to the emperor and held immense power, commanding 100,000 troops and enjoying great popularity.

Such a person is not an emperor.

I suppose their emperor, Jin Yu, would love for him to never return and to die in Sheng Yuan.

He held onto Su Yan's arm and didn't let go.

He still had that lazy look on his face.

Su Yan suddenly smiled

"You knew me before?"

Su Yan shook her head

"Don't know"

"After you got to know me, you admired me a lot?"

"······No."

As soon as Su Yan finished speaking, Xuan Yuan Junyu moved closer to her.

A low voice

"Seeing how much you care about my safety, anyone who didn't know better would think you're my spy planted in Shengyuan Kingdom."

He spoke casually, but his eyes were full of scrutiny.

Su Yan was stunned for a moment.

Their eyes met, and he looked at Su Yan, moving even closer.

"Isn't that so?"

Su Yan withdrew her hand, sat up straight, and didn't say another word.

Her silence only made Xuan Yuan Junyu's gaze linger.

If what happened before was just speculation, then now that speculation has been confirmed.

Did this soldier from Shengyuan Kingdom not want to hurt him?

Thinking about it, Xuanyuan Junyu touched his neck.

The gauze there hasn't been removed yet.

The wound is still being dressed.

Upon closer reflection, it seems that apart from their first meeting, she had always been... avoiding him?

She seemed to want neither to hurt him nor to have much contact with him.

They had all sorts of emotions, but none of them showed any murderous intent or hostility towards him.

Hmm, that's interesting.

He was thinking.

Xuanyuan Junyu didn't say anything more along the way.

Only occasionally, almost imperceptibly, would his gaze sweep over Su Yan.

Then he would stare at her for a long time, as if he wanted to see through her, dissect her, and study her thoroughly before he would stop.

Su Yan closed her eyes and went to sleep, showing no reaction whatsoever to this.

Until, after Xiaohua's Nth prompt

"Host, he's looking at you again, he's looking at you again."

Su Yan

"kindness"

He responded with a "yes," indicating that he understood.

Xiaohua was puzzled.

"Host, don't you think this is an opportunity?"

"What opportunity?"

"It's obvious he's interested in you. Just reveal that you're a woman and pounce on him!!"

Xiao Hua's mind is now filled with plans to help its host rise to power.

Anyway, if he's not happy, just have the host knock him out.

After listening, Su Yan refused.

“He doesn’t like me, he’s just a little curious. He’s more interested in finding a way to kill me. To him, I’m a threat.”

After all, her fighting prowess is undeniable.

They don't even care about thousands of troops.

If we can get him here once, we can get him here a second time.

If we don't get rid of her, it will be difficult for the Golden Jade Kingdom to continue its attack.

Xiaohua couldn't say a word after hearing this, and asked softly.

"How did the host know the hidden thoughts in his mind?"

As a system, it thinks the male protagonist is... quite good and well-behaved.

Su Yan remained silent for a long time before speaking.

"My brain capacity has increased."

Xiaohua was puzzled.

"Is the host discriminating against Xiaohua because she's brainless?"

Thinking about it this way, Xiaohua

"snort!"

It's just the average human IQ; there's nothing it can do about it.

Su Yan

"So you don't have a brain?"

Little Flower whispered

"I...I didn't want to either. Little Flower isn't human."

Where is a brain?

Clearly, their conversation had gone off-topic.

Xiaohua was immersed in her own mindless sadness.

Much later, Su Yan almost cried when she heard Xiao Hua's childish voice.

She said

"It's okay, I don't mind."
