Qi Ran leaned closer to Tu Ling, lowered his head and patiently explained to her.
Tu Ling looked as if she had suddenly understood something and nodded solemnly.
"I see you didn't eat much just now." Tu Ling picked up a piece of West Lake vinegar fish nearby and put it directly into Meng Youning's bowl. "Xiao Ran'er picked up some food for me. Does that make Ningning feel uncomfortable?"
She paused and glanced at Qi Ran. "Ningning, don't think too much. Xiao Ran'er is just like that. He doesn't have any complicated thoughts. He just wants to reminisce about the past with me. It's definitely not that he doesn't have you in his heart."
At the same time, he picked up a piece of beggar's chicken and quickly put it into Meng Youning's bowl.
Meng Youning lowered her head and drank the medicine silently.
Without her saying anything, Muxiang stepped forward and took the bowl and chopsticks containing the West Lake Vinegar Fish.
“Pah.”
Suddenly, Muxiang's hand shook, and the dishes in her hand fell to the ground with a bang.
The bowl and chopsticks were intact, but the food in the bowl was scattered all over the floor.
Mu Xiang cried out, "Damn this servant, damn this servant, for messing up the dishes of the Crown Prince's wife."
There was a hint of a smile on Meng Youning's lips.
How could she not know that Muxiang did this to help her vent her anger?
But this tone was dispensable to her.
She raised her right hand slightly and said, "Nothing, just ask the servants to change the bowls and chopsticks."
Tu Ling raised her head and glanced at Mu Xiang casually, "How can the person serving Ningning be so clumsy and serve her well?"
She turned sideways to look at Qi Ran and whispered, "Xiao Ran'er, haven't you ever thought about replacing the maidservant serving Ning Ning with someone else?"
Before Qi Ran could speak, Meng Youning said coldly, "I'm used to the people around me. I don't need to bother you with such trivial matters."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her eyes, picked up the bowl of black medicine in front of her, tilted her head slightly, and drank it all.
Then, he wiped away the water droplets left at the corners of his mouth.
Meng Youning stood up slowly and said, "I'm done eating. Please take your time and chat."
"Oh, right." Meng Youning suddenly remembered something and instructed the people around him, "Miss Tu Ling has come back to Shengjing after so much hardship. You must tidy up her room."
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Youning flicked his sleeves and walked to the side.
Suddenly, someone grabbed my right hand tightly.
Slightly cool to the touch.
Meng Youning drooped her eyelids slightly. It was Qi Ran's hand.
Meng Youning said calmly, "What else does the prince want?"
"Don't just leave like that." Qi Ran pointed at Tu Ling. "On the way back just now, I mentioned you to Sister Ling. Sister Ling is very interested in you. Don't be angry with her. Sit down and have a good chat with Sister Ling."
The corners of Meng Youning's lips unconsciously raised up a little.
If you look closely, there is a hint of sarcasm.
The next moment, she calmly pulled her hand back from Qi Ran.
"Since the prince wants to accompany his old acquaintance, then go ahead and do it. I won't be joining you."
Qi Ran sighed, with a hint of anger between his eyebrows.
She reached out and grabbed Meng Youning's sleeve. "Youning, stop being unreasonable. You don't have anything to do right now. I just asked you to stay with Sister Ling and talk for a few minutes. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Meng Youning lowered her eyes slightly, her gaze landing on Qi Ran's hand that was holding her sleeve, "Prince, please let go."
Qi Ran exerted a little force on his hand and gently tugged at Meng Youning's sleeve.
He turned his head to glance at Tu Ling, then leaned closer to Meng Youning, "What's wrong with you? Sister Ling just said a few extra words, she didn't mean any harm."
Meng Youning rolled her eyes in her heart.
She should have known long ago that the person in front of her was someone who would do anything for Bai Yueguang.
If you want to place your hopes on this person, you will only end up disappointed.
As soon as Tu Ling appeared, both Qi Ran and Feng Hengzhi felt that everything Tu Ling said and did was right.
Thinking of this, Meng Youning's eyes became fierce. He reached out to pull back his sleeves and turned around without hesitation to walk towards Yunyan Pavilion.
Tu Ling slowly stood up and looked at Meng Youning's back as she left, a puzzled look on her face. "What's wrong with Ningning? Why does she seem to dislike me?"
Tu Ling sighed, "Xiao Ran'er, why don't you just forget it? It's fine for me to live outside. Late at night, I can still see the starry sky. It's so comfortable."
Qi Ran frowned, "What kind of place do you live in?"
Tu Ling smiled and gestured in the air, "It's just a very small house, but the top is empty and transparent. Although it's a bit remote, at least I can still hear the chirping of insects every night."
She waved her hand, turned her back to Qi Ran, and shrugged nonchalantly, "Xiao Ran'er, you know I'm a casual person. As long as I can live here, it's fine. Besides, after I finish what I want to do, I also want to travel around the world. Traveling around the world doesn't offer such good conditions for me to choose."
The more she spoke, the more complicated Qi Ran's expression became.
Qi Ran slowly walked to Tu Ling and said, "Sister Ling lives in a place like this, yet she still says she lives well. I know you don't want me to worry about you, but don't worry."
He turned his head and looked in the direction of Yunyan Pavilion. "If I hadn't met Sister Ling, it would be fine. But now that I have met her, I will definitely not leave her alone. As long as I stay, Sister Ling's injuries will definitely heal completely. Then I can ask Youning to approve some more money."
Tu Ling paused, then spoke involuntarily, "Isn't it you, Xiao Ran'er, who has the final say in the Prince's Mansion? Why do you still need to ask her opinion?"
Qi Ran waved his hand. "It was true before, but ever since I married Meng Youning, my parents have been more restrictive about my monthly allowance. Now they've even let Meng Youning run the household. But Sister Ling, don't worry. If I explain the reason, she'll agree to something like this."
Tu Ling chuckled and nodded, "Then I will truly obey your command."
Qi Ran hurriedly instructed the people around him, "What are you all still standing there for? Go and make a comfortable room for Sister Ling. Remember to put lavender in the room so that Sister Ling won't be disturbed by nightmares."
Tu Ling reached out and rubbed Qi Ran's head gently. "I didn't expect Xiao Ran to remember such details so clearly. It's really hard for you."
Qi Ran chuckled twice.
Cang Hei, who was standing aside, silently shifted his gaze elsewhere.
There was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
What is the situation now?
Why is it that when the prince saw Miss Tu Ling, his whole soul seemed to be taken away?
My mind and eyes are filled with only Miss Tu Ling's affairs.
The Crown Prince's wife's expression was obviously not right just now, but the Crown Prince hadn't noticed it yet.
Now he is still flirting with Miss Tu Ling.
He curled his lips and muttered softly, "I've never seen anyone go out of their way to chat and laugh with the master of the house."
