When Namo Si woke up, she was somewhat dazed. Just before she lost consciousness, she heard Helan Wenyue sigh in her ear: "I'm saving you."
"Save me? Why do you say you're saving me?" Namo was confused.
However, she didn't have time to dwell on this issue right now, because she felt that she could sense Xiao Yi again.
"Xiao Yi?" Nan Wusi called out tentatively.
"Sisi, you're awake?" Xiao Yi exclaimed in surprise. "Your parents and I are in the front hall now."
"Where is Helan Wenyue?" Nan Wusi asked, as she didn't know what had happened after she fell into a coma.
"Let's talk about that later, your parents have gone to see you," Xiao Yi said.
In the front hall, Xiao Yi stood up and exclaimed with delight, "Sisi is awake!" Afterwards, Nan Tianba and his wife exchanged a suspicious glance. How did Xiao Yi know that their precious daughter was awake? Was he deliberately trying to distract them?
Although they didn't know if it was true or not, when they saw Xiao Yi lift his foot to walk towards the inner courtyard, Jiang Zhirou quickly stood up and said, "Your Highness, we will go to see Sisi. Please wait for us in the front hall."
"Uh, okay." Xiao Yi then realized that his behavior was a bit inappropriate, so he awkwardly withdrew his foot and sat back down.
As for Nan Tianba and Jiang Zhirou, they naturally rushed to the room in the inner courtyard where Nan Wusi was being placed to check if she had woken up.
"Sisi." Jiang Zhirou rushed into the room and saw Nan Wusi sitting up.
"Mother!" Nan Wusi exclaimed in surprise.
"Sisi, you're awake." Nan Tianba followed Jiang Zhirou into the room.
"Father," Nan Wusi called out.
"My dear daughter, how are you feeling now?" Jiang Zhirou sat down next to Nan Wusi and asked with concern.
"I'm fine now," Nan Wusi replied with a smile.
"That's good. You scared your mother to death." Jiang Zhirou looked at Nan Wusi and said, "What if these thieves had taken you to Beihuan?"
"Mother, I'm fine now, don't worry," Nan Wusi comforted Jiang Zhirou.
"Wu Si, do you know why they kidnapped you?" Nan Tianba asked, standing by the bed.
“I don’t know. Although I tried to probe her several times, Helan Wenyue kept her mouth shut and didn’t reveal anything.” Nan Wusi shook his head, then suddenly remembered: “Right, when I was unconscious before, I seemed to hear Helan Wenyue whisper in my ear that he was doing it to save me.”
"Oh, is that so?" Nan Tianba's eyes sharpened. He had said this to He Lanwenyue when she left. What did this mean?
“Yes, that’s true, but I haven’t figured out what it means yet,” Nan Wusi said.
"Since you haven't figured it out yet, let's not think about it for now and focus on getting better first," Nan Tianba said.
"Father, I'm really fine now, I don't need to recuperate." Nan Wusi was both amused and exasperated.
"Don't worry about your father. Now that you're all here, your mother will take you to have some fun and stay a while before returning to the capital," Jiang Zhirou said with a smile to Nan Wusi.
"Great! I've been wanting to come here for ages." Nan Wusi nodded excitedly. She had been planning to come here anyway, and now it was perfect timing.
"By the way, Sisi, what is your relationship with this Prince Yi?" Jiang Zhirou suddenly asked.
"Huh?" Nan Wusi was a little confused, and subconsciously replied, "It doesn't matter."
"Hmph, as expected, that kid was talking nonsense." Jiang Zhirou snorted coldly, while Nan Tianba also looked unhappy.
"Xiao Yi, what did you say to my parents? Why did my mother ask what our relationship is?" Nan Wusi quickly asked in her mind.
"I said we are mutually attracted and truly in love," Xiao Yi answered in his mind.
“…” Nan Wusi blushed as she listened. What was Xiao Yi up to, telling her parents this?
"Sisi, what was your answer?" Xiao Yi asked cautiously.
"Uh, I said we have nothing to do with each other," Nan Wusi answered honestly.
"Sisi, do you also despise me for being blind?" Xiao Yi's tone was full of disappointment.
"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Nan Wusi denied it three times in a row. Heaven knows that she answered subconsciously at the time. Besides, the two of them hadn't even confirmed a romantic relationship.
So Nan Wusi turned the tables and said, "Xiao Yi, you've never pursued me, and you haven't even confessed to me. What kind of relationship do we have?"
"Okay, I understand." Xiao Yi said and then fell silent.
Nan Wusi, on the other hand, was extremely anxious, feeling as if she had hurt Xiao Yi's feelings.
"Mother, I'll go to the front hall to take a look." Nan Wusi hurriedly got up.
"You know Prince Yi is in the front hall?" Jiang Zhirou and Nan Tianba exchanged a glance, and then she asked.
Just now, Xiao Yi was also able to know in advance that Nan Wusi had already woken up. Why was that?
“Yes, he’s a guest, isn’t he in the front hall?” Nan Wusi’s heart tightened, and he immediately explained.
Seeing Jiang Zhirou's suspicious gaze, Nan Wusi felt a little nervous.
"Do you and Prince Yi have some special way of communicating? Back in the front hall, it was he who said you were awake that we rushed over to see you," Jiang Zhirou said.
“Yes, Xiao Yi and I can communicate telepathically,” Nan Wusi replied.
"Do you think your parents are idiots?" Jiang Zhirou rolled her eyes at Nan Wusi, not believing it.
"Oh dear, Mother, you see, I told you but you don't believe me," Nan Wusi said helplessly, even though she was telling the truth.
"Alright, if you don't want to talk about it, I won't ask anymore." Jiang Zhirou said to Nan Wusi, "Go ahead."
"Okay." Nan Wusi hurriedly ran to the front hall after getting up, but once she got out, she realized that she didn't know the way.
So Nan Wusi had no choice but to run back and pull Jiang Zhirou aside, saying, "Hey, Mother, how do we get to the front hall?"
"Let's go together, don't keep them waiting." Jiang Zhirou smiled and shook her head, what a little scatterbrain.
So the family went to the front hall.
Xiao Yi sat calmly in his seat, the atmosphere around him was rather tense, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Xiao Yi?" Nan Wusi tried calling out.
"Miss Nan, you're awake." Xiao Yi stood up and bowed to Nan Wusi.
"Hmm." Nan Wusi's tone also lowered.
"General Nan, Madam Nan, now that Miss Nan has awakened, I shall take my leave." Xiao Yi bowed to the crowd and departed.
Nan Wusi watched Xiao Yi's departing figure, feeling somewhat distressed. Nan Tianba and Jiang Zhirou exchanged bewildered glances, wondering why Prince Yi's attitude had changed so drastically.
Moreover, the two seemed to have had a fight, but they hadn't seen each other since Nan Wusi woke up. They had just met.
