Qiu Dafu noticed the people coming from afar but didn't pay them any attention. The reason was that many people traveled through the mountains, and they had encountered many villagers on their way there.
Without a word, Bai Lu swiftly seized the person, while Qin Susu, bewildered, pursued closely behind.
Their sudden action puzzled Qiu Dafu and the others, while Qiu Yan remained calm and unmoved.
Soon, the person who had arrived came into view.
Qiu Yan's expression remained unchanged as she recalled the scene a few days ago when Gu Xiaoran was robbed and she saved her.
They did get noticed after all.
As the person approached, Qin Susu suddenly knelt down with a thud, then her head hit the ground, and she collapsed to the ground, her heart filled with disbelief.
Her lips trembled, and her teeth chattered.
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty..."
It wasn't out of fear, but out of excitement.
However, He Lin didn't even glance at Qin Susu, walking straight past her with his eyes fixed on Qiu Yan.
Bai Lu recognized the person and stepped back.
"Young lady, could it be that you've never seen a man before?" Zhan Yue's words made Qin Susu both ashamed and angry.
That damned guard, no matter his status, dares to mock her.
Zhan Yue crouched down, leaned close to Qin Susu's ear, and whispered:
"Miss Qin, please get up."
Qin Susu quickly stood up and smiled sheepishly at everyone, "The mountain road was rugged and uneven, which caused me to slip and fall."
"Is that so? Miss Qin's martial arts are unparalleled, yet she's not even as good as a child." Zhan Yue continued to tease, glancing at Gu Xiaoran, who was looking at his master with disdain.
Once you look at it, you can't take your eyes off it for a long time.
"Young master, why are you dressed like this today? It's quite interesting."
Qin Susu glared at Zhan Yue unhappily, dusted herself off, and ran towards Qiu Yan, who was already carrying Gu Xiaoran and far away from them.
It's best not to mess with His Majesty's personal guards.
The rest of the group had various expressions.
Master Mu continued to diligently teach Qiu Ling'er to read poetry and books, undisturbed by the outside world. However, he thought that in the future, he needed to find a quiet place, as too many people would inevitably distract him.
When Baiyang Courtyard was sold last time, Qiu Dafu learned about He Lin's identity from Jiang Liu. He was quite puzzled when he saw He Lin again.
He watched Qiu Yan's retreating figure, fearing that the current emperor had taken a liking to his eldest niece.
Jiang Liu was also worried.
The weird uncle is here again. Gu Xiaoran frowned and clung to Qiu Yan.
Ignoring the gazes of the crowd, He Lin walked towards Qiu Yan in the distance, his light eyes fixed on her profile, his gentle smile breaking into a smile that illuminated every inch of her skin.
Shu'er, her Shu'er, usually loves to challenge her limits.
But soon, when his smile fell on Gu Xiaoran, he was immediately stunned.
"Yu'er..." he murmured twice, and was about to reach out and hug Gu Xiaoran when Gu Xiaoran slapped him away.
"You know I'm Yu'er?"
"I'm sorry, Daddy lost you. Can Daddy hold you for a bit?"
“I am Gu Qian’s son,” Gu Xiaoran corrected.
Not far away, Qin Susu couldn't hear the conversation between He Lin and Gu Xiaoran clearly, but seeing their interaction, she felt her mind was completely overwhelmed.
This Yu'er is fearless, like a newborn calf.
Over the years, every time she saw He Lin, he always had an aloof and indifferent demeanor; it was rare to see him with this expression.
Furthermore, he actually smiled at Qiu Yan, though only for a moment.
In order to hear their conversation clearly, Qin Susu tiptoed a few steps closer.
He Lin calmed down and regained his senses amidst Qiu Yan's indifference.
"Don't get me wrong, I've come to ask you what weapon you used last time?"
