When did you become so childish?
"No," Nan Zhiyun retorted.
"Why is that all? The Empress Dowager you relied on doesn't want you anymore. She's dumped you on me, telling me to take good care of you." Yu Jingchen is really... annoying!
"No..." Nan Zhiyun was quite resistant.
"There's nothing I can do about it. The person has already left. Are you going to chase after them? How old are you? Why are you still so clingy?" Is this really because the Empress Dowager spoils her?
"I will stay in He'an Palace and won't go anywhere..." Nan Zhiyun lowered her eyes. I will behave myself and won't cause trouble. Without protection, I will hide away and lick my wounds alone. I don't need your verbal care that comes too late.
Yu Jingchen understood Nan Zhiyun's meaning, but it was precisely because he understood that he felt heartache.
"Listen to me, come here first, okay?" Yu Jingchen still felt he should coax the person over first.
"I thought I was obedient in front of Your Majesty, but Your Majesty doesn't like it. I know that Your Majesty only hates me, so no matter what I do, Your Majesty will be disgusted."
"So, Your Majesty, I will no longer trouble you. I will stay here quietly and will not appear before you." Nan Zhiyun's eyes were filled with tears, which made Yu Jingchen's heart clench.
"No, it won't happen again. Come here first, okay? We can talk about the rest later." Yu Jingchen extended his hand to Nan Zhiyun.
But Nan Zhiyun ignored her, hugging her knees and curling herself into a ball, refusing to look at Yu Jingchen or say a word.
Yu Jingchen had no choice but to step forward himself, but his approach terrified Nan Zhiyun.
Nan Zhiyun couldn't avoid it, so when Yu Jingchen approached, she subconsciously trembled and then closed her eyes.
Yu Jingchen naturally knew she was afraid, but there was nothing he could do. If he didn't do this and waited for Nan Zhiyun to slowly overcome these emotions on her own, it would probably be impossible.
Yu Jingchen pulled her close: "Don't be afraid, nothing will happen. The Empress Dowager will be back in a few days. You don't want her to come back like before, do you? Don't let all her careful care these past few days go to waste. So don't be afraid, okay?" It was rare for Yu Jingchen to coax her like this.
Nan Zhiyun's body stiffened, and she dared not move. It was unclear whether she had heard Yu Jingchen's words.
"Shall I have the palace maids help you get up first?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
Nan Zhiyun shook her head.
"So what do you want to do now?" Yu Jingchen asked patiently.
Nan Zhiyun remained silent.
"Get up first, then have your meal, and then drink the medicine the imperial physician prescribed to help you recover, okay?" Yu Jingchen continued to ask her.
Nan Zhiyun remained silent.
"Nan Zhiyun, if you keep acting like this, I'll have to force you to get up soon," Yu Jingchen threatened, though his tone was much better than before.
"I'll have someone come in and help you change, okay?" Yu Jingchen asked again. Whether it was because Yu Jingchen's threat had an effect or not, Nan Zhiyun no longer resisted, which could be considered as acquiescence.
Seeing this, Yu Jingchen called Qianxia and the others in. However, after Qianxia entered, Nan Zhiyun did not move.
"What's wrong?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
Nan Zhiyun glanced at Yu Jingchen, moved her lips but didn't say anything, but Yu Jingchen understood.
