Chapter 92
Seeing Yunxi's smile, Shen Rang's heart stirred slightly again.
Yunxi's current state truly surprised him.
I thought this girl had been harassed the whole way and was too scared to fight back, but I was wrong...
He underestimated her.
The atmosphere in the room became inexplicably much more relaxed.
Shen Rang set the painting aside, picked up the teapot with his large, well-defined hands, and poured clear tea into the teacup.
Seeing that he still had the leisure to drink tea, Yunxi said, "Your Highness, you're not taking a day off today, are you...?"
Shen Rang's eyes darkened slightly.
After he left Liuyun Garden, he was indeed heading to Hanlin Academy, but he was stopped just a few steps away.
The man was a colleague from the Hanlin Academy. He rushed over to tell him that the Grand Secretary had given instructions that he didn't need to go for the next few days.
Shen Rang immediately wanted to ask for clarification, but his colleague looked embarrassed and said that it was the Grand Secretary's order. He also said that even if he went to the Hanlin Academy, he would not be able to enter the Hanlin Academy and would not be able to see the Grand Secretary. After saying that, he hurriedly ran away, as if he was afraid that Shen Rang would ask him to get to the bottom of things.
Shen Rang knew that if he chased after them, he would only cause trouble for his colleagues, so he had no choice but to return.
Seeing that Shen Rang looked deep in thought, Yun Xi remained silent and did not make a sound to disturb him.
Just then, a commotion arose outside.
It was Jingyuan's voice: "Master, Madam, what brings you two here?"
He spoke loudly, clearly intending to send a message to Shen Rang.
"Why can't we come? I'm his father! What, can't we even come to see him?!"
"My lord, please calm down!"
"Get out of the way! Don't stand there!"
Yunxi glanced at Chen Rang instinctively, a hint of panic flashing across her face.
She wasn't faking it.
If a maid appears beside the only prince in the family, everyone would probably subconsciously think that the maid is scheming and trying to curry favor with him. If she is ruthless, they might beat her to death!
"Come with me."
Shen Rang picked up the teacup, poured out the tea he had just poured, and then led her into the inner room.
The inner room was where Shen Rang rested, with a bed and blackout curtains around it.
These tents have now become Yunxi's hiding place.
"Stay hidden and don't make a sound."
Yunxi nodded nervously, even unconsciously softening her breathing.
Shen Rang turned and left, opening the door behind him.
Outside, Jingyuan lay on the stairs, his arms outstretched and bracing himself against the railing, blocking Shen Jun and Zheng's path.
Shen Jun looked up and saw Shen Rang. He immediately snorted coldly and said, "This son has grown up and his wings have hardened. Now it's just a place to enjoy the scenery, and I can't even come here!"
"I took a short rest upstairs just now, please forgive me, Father and Mother."
"Sleep? You've been idle at home for so long, and you still have the mind to sleep?! Shen Rang, what can I say about you!" Shen Jun was so angry that his face turned purple.
After studying hard for more than ten years, he finally managed to pass the imperial examination with top honors and enter the court. But before he could even begin his journey, his path was blocked. Yet, he still had the mind to sleep!
While a good attitude is a good thing, his attitude is just too good!
"Alright, Zirong, let's go inside and talk."
Shen Rang stepped back: "Father, Mother, please."
Jing Yuan gritted his teeth and stood up, stepping aside to make way for him.
Shen Jun let out another heavy, cold snort.
