In order to find out the source of the arrow, Helian Jin stayed with his guards.
Lin Qingwan wanted to stay with them, but her frail body could not withstand the cold wind. In order not to cause trouble for Helian Jin, she had to get on the carriage back to the palace with Lian Bai.
"Sister, who would be so bold as to openly assassinate the prince?"
Lin Qingwan's face turned pale, and she couldn't stop worrying when she thought of the thrilling scene just now.
Sophie patted the back of her hand to tell her not to worry.
After all, the male protagonist’s halo is not given for nothing.
Even though he was forced to abdicate by thousands of soldiers in the original drama, didn't he survive and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun?
"But sister, Wanwan is always feeling uneasy. She always feels like something is going to happen."
Lin Qingwan frowned, and Sophie held her cold hand.
"Don't be afraid, Wanwan. Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you!"
"elder sister……"
Lin Qingwan was moved and leaned over and threw herself into Sophie's arms.
[Ding! The host successfully completed the Sisterly Love mission, Viciousness value -5, Friendship value +20.]
Oh, big deal!
After successfully sending Lin Qingwan back to the palace, it was already late.
After the two changed into dry clothes, Lin Qingwan took the initiative to invite Sophie to stay overnight.
Sophie wanted to refuse, but it was dinner time.
The delicious food made her hungry.
After dinner, it was completely dark.
Well, I've decided to stay here this night.
Because she caught a cold after falling into the water during the day, Lin Qingwan went to bed early.
Led by Qiuyue, Sophie came to the guest room of the palace.
"My lady, the princess specifically instructed me to wait here. If you need anything, please feel free to tell Qiuyue."
Qiuyue was originally Lin Qingwan's personal maid who was brought to the palace from the Lin family. She was not unfamiliar with Sophie, but her impression of her still remained in the past.
She deliberately emphasized the word "Princess" to warn Sophie that Lin Qingwan's status is no longer the same as before, and she is no longer the soft persimmon that she can manipulate at will.
Feeling the faint hostility coming from her, Sophie smiled disapprovingly.
"Qiuyue, Wanwan is not feeling well. You can go and take care of her. You don't need to bother me here."
Is this still the same arrogant young lady from before? Why is she so considerate today?
Although Qiuyue had doubts in her heart, she took the opportunity to take her leave and went to Lin Qingwan after hearing this.
After the people left, the room became quiet again.
"Comfortable."
Sophie sighed and lay down on the soft bed.
You know what, even though Helian Jin isn't a very good person, he actually lives a pretty comfortable life.
The bed in this guest room alone is several times better than the one in her boudoir in the Lin family.
Or, when the relationship between the hero and heroine is stable one day, she will let the heroine whisper in the hero's ear and ask him to give the bed to her?
Just as I was thinking this, I heard some unusual movement outside.
Wow, again?
Sophie recalled the day when she rescued Xiao Ming. The arrow today might have been shot by him.
After all, Helian Jin had an irreconcilable hatred for him because of the murder of his father.
But according to the development of the plot, Xiao Ming is not yet fully grown, so he wouldn't do such a desperate move, right?
Sophie jumped up from the bed.
She opened the door directly to check the situation, and the tall figure of a man suddenly appeared in front of her.
It turned out to be this guy Helian Jin.
"Why are you here?"
Sophie looked at the dusty man suspiciously.
On this dark and windy night, why did he come to her place instead of going back to his room?
If this gets to the heroine's ears, won't the viciousness level skyrocket?
It really makes people feel frustrated.
"Ayin, do you really not remember me?"
Helian Jin looked at her face which quickly turned cold, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
???
Is this the time for NetEase Cloud Music?
Sophie was puzzled by his sudden emotion.
He is clearly the high and mighty prince during the day, so why does he have two different faces at night?
"Your Majesty, our relationship doesn't seem close enough for you to call me by my maiden name. Besides, since you've already married my sister Wanwan, it doesn't seem excessive for you to call me sister, does it?"
Sophie raised the corners of her eyes slightly, her gaze slightly cold.
elder sister?
Helian Jin frowned, feeling a sense of distress in his chest.
Not long ago, he had just returned to the palace, and Lian Bai had reported to him what had happened today. After knowing that she was staying at the palace, he walked uncontrollably to her guest room.
He really couldn't understand whether she really didn't have him in her heart or was trying to play him in her hands.
Watching the complex changes in his eyes, Sophie was afraid that he would do something unbelievable again because of his sudden loss of control. So she simply reached out and took out the jade pendant from her arms and dropped it into his palm.
"Helian Jin, do you know what this is?"
Sophie took the lead.
Helian Jin lowered his eyes and looked at the familiar jade pendant in his hand, his eyes froze.
"Of course I know. This is the token of my love I gave you personally after you saved me ten years ago..."
"No, you're wrong."
Sophie interrupted him coldly.
"This is the token of love you gave to Wanwan personally after she saved you ten years ago."
"impossible!"
A hint of disbelief flashed in Helian Jin's eyes.
"Why do you think Wanwan is so weak after becoming a military commander? Isn't it because of the high fever she accidentally caught while saving you as a child? She treated you wholeheartedly, but you repeatedly ignored her sincerity. You mistakenly thought of me as your savior, but abandoned the real savior."
Sophie was too lazy to waste time talking to him and told him the truth from ten years ago.
Now he should be eager to turn around and ask the heroine for forgiveness, right?
Unexpectedly, Helian Jin sneered.
The jade pendant in his hand was instantly turned into ashes by his internal force and blown away by the wind.
"Helian Jin, are you crazy?"
Sophie was stunned.
This guy has always been thinking about his savior. Now that she has told him the truth, he actually destroyed the token of love?
"Yes, the king is crazy."
Helian Jin answered and approached again and again.
Sophie frowned as she saw his emotions almost out of control.
Damn, why does the plot always go against what she expects?
Isn’t it nice that he just loves the heroine obediently?
Why do you have to get entangled with such a vicious female supporting role like her?
[Ding! Successfully started the bond mission with the bond target "Helian Jin", bond value +10.]
The system's notification sound rang out at an inopportune time, and Sophie was so angry that she wanted to curse her father.
Helian Jin raised his hand, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her towards him.
"Lin Qingyin, you know that I am deeply attached to you, yet you have repeatedly rejected me. I know that as a sister, you have always been very fond of Lin Qingwan. But now, in order to satisfy Lin Qingwan's feelings for me, you have even pushed such an important memory to her. Do you really think I am so unbearable?"
