Chapter 156: Restrained Love
Shen Ningyuan turned around.
Sure enough, I saw Xie Wanzhou's playful face.
Lan Yin had been taken away without knowing when.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan's face darkened, and he said unceremoniously: "Xie Wanzhou, what are you going to do? I don't want to have anything to do with you, can you please stop pestering me?"
She had previously suspected that Xie Wanzhou was the mastermind behind the incident.
Although it was later proved that this was all a misunderstanding.
But she was still very disgusted with Xie Wanzhou's inexplicable approach.
Xie Wanzhou did not respond, still looking at Shen Ningyuan with amusement.
The latter felt very uncomfortable being stared at by him and subconsciously avoided Xie Wanzhou's gaze.
Seeing this, Xie Wanzhou asked playfully: "Chen Ningyuan, what is your relationship with Ji Yunnuo from the Marquis' Mansion? Why did you go to Ningle Tower to drink?"
"What?"
Shen Ningyuan looked at Xie Wanzhou in surprise, and then his expression changed instantly: "Xie Wanzhou, you followed me!"
Xie Wanzhou explained angrily: "What you said, how can this be called stalking? I just happened to pass by and saw it."
Shen Ningyuan's face turned cold, and her tone was not polite, "If you see it, then you see it. Why do you have to question me? What is my relationship with you?"
Seeing the coldness in Chen Ningyuan's eyes, Xie Wanzhou's heart sank, and he asked straight to the point: "Chen Ningyuan, I really can't understand why you are so cold to me when you are always nice to other people?"
"Why? The first time we met in the palace, you almost took my life. Why do you want me to be nice to you?" Chen Ningyuan asked back in a cold voice.
Xie Wanzhou: "..."
After hearing this, Xie Wanzhou had nothing to refute.
If he had known that Shen Ningyuan was so stingy, he should have been gentler when they first met.
At this time, Luo Ziyuan was hiding behind the corner, hearing their conversation clearly, and his shoulders were twitching from trying to hold back his laughter.
He whispered, "Xie Wanzhou, you have come to this day!"
Lan Yin was pressed in the acupoint and leaned against the wall weakly. She could only stare at Luo Ziyuan with her round eyes.
As if noticing Lan Yin's gaze, Luo Ziyuan turned his head and said to Lan Yin with a grin, "Little girl, do you think my senior brother is a good match for your master?"
Lan Yin: “???”
She understood every word Luo Ziyuan said, but when they were put together, she didn't understand.
"Why don't you speak?"
Seeing Lan Yin didn't say anything, Luo Ziyuan tilted his head and asked.
Lan Yin was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe.
She wanted to talk, but she untied her xue bit!
Noticing that the anger in Lan Yin's eyes was even stronger than before, Luo Ziyuan finally reacted, scratched his head and chuckled.
"I'm sorry, I was so busy watching the fun that I forgot I had selected your spot."
"I'll untie you first. Don't scream or run around!"
After saying that, Luo Ziyuan immediately untied Lan Yin's martial arts.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the xuedao was untied, Lan Yin pushed Luo Ziyuan away and ran towards Shen Ningyuan and Xie Wanzhou.
"Miss!"
“Hey——” Luo Ziyuan’s eyes widened, “Didn’t I tell you not to yell or run around?”
Luo Ziyuan hurriedly chased after him.
At this time, Lan Yin had already run to Shen Ningyuan's side, glaring at Xie Wanzhou and Luo Ziyuan angrily.
He asked unhappily, "Miss, why are these two people haunting us?"
Shen Ningyuan snorted coldly and emphasized her tone, "Xie Wanzhou, did you hear that? Even my maid knows that you are haunting us!"
Xie Wanzhou glanced at Luo Ziyuan and cursed in a low voice: "You can't even keep an eye on one person, you are such a waste!"
"Xie Wanzhou, how are you better than me? You've been trying to please the young widow for so long, but she hasn't given you a good face!" Luo Ziyuan fought back.
Xie Wanzhou's expression changed instantly.
I didn't expect Luo Ziyuan to be so outspoken and blurt out this matter!
She was so angry that she twisted Luo Ziyuan's collar and said, "Luo Ziyuan, what nonsense are you talking about? Shut up!"
Seeing that Xie Wanzhou was getting anxious, Luo Ziyuan didn't mind making things worse and probably raised his voice.
"Why should I shut up? You obviously have a crush on the young widow, otherwise why would you pester her?"
"Luo Ziyuan, shut up, I didn't bother her!"
"You appear in front of me every now and then and refuse to leave. If this isn't harassment, what is it?" Luo Ziyuan continued.
“Shut up!”
"Lululu, you just have a crush on me, otherwise why would you pester me?"
"Shut up!"
"I won't, you fickle fellow, have you forgotten the little bell so quickly?"
"I don't have one!"
"Hehe, when I find Xiao Lingdang, I will tell her that you have changed your mind and have fallen in love with someone else!"
"It's not me who has changed her heart, it's her!" Xie Wanzhou suddenly shouted loudly: "She has forgotten me!"
After Xie Wanzhou roared, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Luo Ziyuan looked at Xie Wanzhou in surprise and asked in confusion: "Xie Wanzhou, what do you mean by this? What do you mean Xiao Lingdang has changed her heart? Have you found her?"
Xie Wanzhou paused and denied it flatly: "No!"
Luo Ziyuan didn't believe it at all. "I don't believe it. You must have found it. Otherwise, how could you say that Xiao Lingdang had changed her mind?"
Xie Wanzhou did not respond, and subconsciously glanced at Shen Ningyuan.
He twisted Luo Ziyuan's collar and pulled him in another direction.
"Forget it, just follow me."
Afterwards, under the surprised gazes of Shen Ningyuan and Lan Yin, Xie Wanzhou dragged Luo Ziyuan and quickly disappeared from their sight.
Lan Yin looked in their direction, her eyes revealing confusion: "Miss, do you know what they are saying? It's a mess, I can't understand a word."
"It's okay. It has nothing to do with us. Let's go."
Shen Ningyuan didn't want to explain, and took Lan Yin towards the gate of the Marquis' Mansion.
On the way back, Shen Ningyuan looked calm and composed, but she was thinking about what Xie Wanzhou and Luo Ziyuan said in her heart.
From what Luo Ziyuan said, Xie Wanzhou seemed to have a good impression of him.
This was the reason why he had been pestering me and suddenly came to my house when he saw me being close to Ji Yunnuo.
But who is Xiao Lingdang? Is she Xie Wanzhou's childhood sweetheart?
Since Xie Wanzhou already has a childhood sweetheart he likes, why would he get stuck with her?
A series of questions exploded in Shen Ningyuan's mind.
When they were almost at the Marquis' Mansion, Lan Yin suddenly said, "Miss, from what that person said just now, it seems that the deposed prince likes you very much?"
Shen Ningyuan paused, "You heard it too?"
"It's obvious, okay? I've noticed a long time ago that the deposed crown prince looks at you in a very different way."
"What's the difference?" Shen Ningyuan asked.
Lan Yin thought for a moment and said slowly: "I don't know how to put it, but the way he looks at the young lady has a strong possessiveness. Although it is paranoid, it is forbearing and restrained. This kind of look, I have never seen in the eyes of the son-in-law."
After hearing Lan Yin's words, Shen Ningyuan realized it a little late.
"Now that you put it that way, it seems to be true."
From the first time they met, Xie Wanzhou looked at her with an inexplicable restraint in his eyes.
