Chapter 564: Xiaojiu's nightmare, taking off the mask while asleep

Shen Chuwei blinked her beautiful big eyes twice. She definitely couldn't tell Xiao Jinyan about Ye Suhan's words about marrying him, otherwise he would definitely worry.

"I saw him today and he was very surprised and almost scared to death. Fortunately, he thought I was Feng Wuyou, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Xiao Jinyan naturally knew her situation at that time, and even he was shocked.

"Didn't he say anything?"

"That being said, I ignored him anyway, but don't worry, my husband, I am still very safe now."

Shen Chuwei leaned close to his ear and whispered, "I will try my best to keep my disguise and not let others find out that I am a fake."

Seeing that she never answered the question, Xiao Jinyan patiently asked again: "What did he say to you?"

Shen Chuwei knew that she couldn't fool smart people no matter how hard she tried.

"He said that Feng Wuyou grew up with him and he had always carried Feng Wuyou on his back since they were young. Actually, he didn't say much. Anyway, we'll just run away after the Imperial Master comes back and the matter is resolved."

Xiao Jinyan also felt that it would be wise to leave Nanzhao Kingdom after the matter was resolved, and it would be unwise to confront Ye Suhan head-on.

Although Ye Suhan would take Xiaojiu into consideration, he couldn't always rely on Xiaojiu to save himself.

Shen Chuwei said: "Jinyan, you can rest here tonight. When you have rested enough, you can go back."

Xiao Jinyan said: "I think so too."

Shen Chuwei took the initiative to help him undress, and she took off his clothes with ease in just a few seconds.

While lying on the bed, Shen Chuwei thought to herself how brave they were, as Xiao Jinyan stayed overnight again.

She found that when she was used to sleeping alone, she always felt uncomfortable with someone lying next to her.

When you are used to sleeping with two people, it will be very uncomfortable to sleep alone suddenly.

She was already used to sleeping in the same bed with Xiao Jinyan, so she soon felt sleepy when they slept together.

Xiao Jinyan was not sleepy at all, and there was always some vague worry in his heart. He lowered his head to look at the person in his arms, and listening to her even breathing, he knew that she had fallen asleep.

He couldn't help but sigh that her sleep quality was really good.

Xiao Jinyan retracted his gaze, closed his eyes and began to sleep.

He had a dream about Xiaojiu when he was a child.

Because the girl in front of him looked very much like Xiaojiu, her eyebrows and eyes were curved when she smiled at him, just like Xiaojiu's smile, and her two little canine teeth were exposed from time to time, with a bit of mischief.

At the end of the dream, Xiao Jinyan was startled awake. He suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously looked down at the person in his arms. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He supported himself on the bed with his hands and slowly sat up. He raised his hand to wipe his forehead and found it was covered with cold sweat.

The dream just now was too real, so real that it made him feel palpitations and fear.

Xiao Jinyan sat for a while before getting up to change his clothes. After he was dressed neatly, he stood beside the bed and looked at the person who was still sleeping. He leaned over and kissed her on the forehead before turning around and leaving.

Before leaving, she took away the medicine she had carefully prepared.

*

"Xiaojiu, wake up."

When Shen Chu was sleeping soundly, there was always a fly buzzing in her ear, which annoyed her to death.

She frowned and pulled the quilt over her head: "Go away!"

Seeing this, Ye Suhan reached out to pull her quilt, "If you don't get up, the tofu pudding will be gone."

Tofu pudding?

Shen Chuwei hasn't eaten tofu pudding for a long time. The best way to get rid of her sleepiness is to let the glutton worm seduce her.

She opened her eyes, thinking she saw a little palace maid, but she actually saw a silver mask, which frightened her so much that she almost screamed.

She asked angrily, "Who let you into my bedroom?"

Ye Suhan said: "I came here by myself."

"Don't you know that men and women should not touch each other? How can you just go into a girl's room?"

Shen Chuwei remembered that she was a young woman, and said, "You can't mess around with a young woman's room. You don't care about your reputation, but I do."

Ye Suhan didn't take it seriously: "You used to come to my room often, and I didn't say anything."

Shen Chuwei ignored his words, because he wasn't talking about her, so she urged, "You go out first, I need to get up, change clothes and wash up."

"Yeah." Ye Suhan stood up and walked out, closing the door before leaving.

When Shen Chuwei saw him go out, she immediately got up and ran over to lock the door. Who knew if this pervert would peek?

After Ye Suhan walked out, he saw the tiger-lion beast lying on the corridor, and he walked over.

Tigrex raised his head when he heard footsteps, but found that it was not Xiaojiu. He lowered his head in disappointment and continued to wait.

Ye Suhan sat down in the corridor, turned his head to look at the tiger-lion beast, reached out and rubbed its head, which caused the tiger-lion beast to groan.

Ye Suhan laughed softly: "Are you still not happy?"

The tiger-lion beast's big copper-bell eyes looked at Ye Suhan lazily, as if to say, "You're happy just by touching me? Do you think you're Xiaojiu?"

Ye Suhan had lived with the tiger-lion beast for a long time before, so he had some understanding of its temper.

"After so many years, your temper hasn't changed."

Tigrex snorted.

Shen Chuwei put on her clothes and walked out. The tiger-lion beast saw her, stood up, and ran over wagging its tail.

Ye Suhan laughed when he saw it, "It really hasn't changed at all."

Shen Chuwei looked at the tiger-lion running towards her and wanted to dodge it. However, when she thought about the consequences of dodging, the tiger-lion would feel aggrieved for a long time, so she had no choice but to welcome its warm embrace.

The Tigrex could stand, but being held by its huge body, she was in danger of being crushed into a meat pie at any time.

Feng Wuyou must have taught it to stand before, otherwise how could it be able to do so?

In fact, Tigrex taught himself when he was young, because he felt that standing up could bring him many benefits, such as Xiaojiu would smile and feed him.

It can also help Xiaojiu, for example, by climbing walls.

Shen Chuwei rubbed the tiger-lion beast's neck and saw Ye Suhan not far away. The smile on her face gradually faded. Was he planning to have breakfast with her?

What actually happened is that we had breakfast together.

Shen Chuwei looked at the meal in front of her, her eyes falling on the tofu pudding, which was her favorite salty tofu pudding.

She picked up a spoon, scooped up a spoonful and put it to her mouth. The temperature was slightly hot, which was bearable. The saltiness was just right, a little spicy, and the taste was better than she had imagined.

Ye Suhan raised his eyes and looked at Xiaojiu who was eating tofu pudding opposite her. She seldom spoke during the meal because it affected her eating speed.

After finishing breakfast, Shen Chuwei wiped the corners of her mouth with the handkerchief handed to her by the palace maid, glanced at Ye Suhan opposite her, and thought about what happened last night.

In order to avoid such things from happening again, she felt it necessary to have a good talk with Ye Suhan.

"Let's talk."

Ye Suhan raised his eyes and looked over. "What are you talking about?"

Shen Chuwei tightly grasped the teacup in his hand, looked at the gloomy Ye Suhan in front of him and said, "Don't hurt Xiao Jinyan."

Ye Suhan paused while drinking his tea and said coldly, "Don't mention him in front of me."

Shen Chuwei only felt a chill on her back. She raised the teacup and took two sips of hot tea. The warm tea seemed to be able to drive away the coldness emanating from the opposite side.

"If you promise not to hurt him, I won't mention it."

Ye Suhan put down the teacup and said, "Want to go out for a walk?"

Shen Chuwei originally wanted to refuse, but since he had not yet promised not to hurt Xiao Jinyan, she had no choice but to compromise and agree.

The morning sun was bright but not blinding, and Shen Chu was slightly surprised to find that autumn had arrived.

Just after stepping down the arch bridge, the young eunuch came in to report.

"Princess, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here."

Shen Chu raised his head slightly and saw Ye Yuxi walking towards him in a blue brocade robe with a food box in his hand. Ye knew there was food inside without having to guess.

Ye Yuxi walked in with great strides and saw Ye Suhan beside Xiaojiu. He frowned slightly but still walked over.

Ye Suhan chuckled: "The prince is here."

Ye Yuxi greeted with a smile: "Third brother is here too."

When Ye Suhan came back yesterday, the brothers had already met each other.

Ye Suhan, who had disappeared for almost ten years, suddenly came back, and some people were happy while others were sad.

On the eve of the crown prince's appointment, Ye Suhan suddenly disappeared. The crown prince position remained vacant for many years before it fell to Ye Yuxi.

Now that Ye Suhan is back, Ye Yuxi is naturally worried about his position as crown prince.

Shen Chuwei raised her head and glanced at the two brothers in front of her, thinking that since they were reminiscing about the past, did they not need her to accompany them for a walk?

To put it nicely, he was taking a walk with her to familiarize herself with the environment, but in reality, she was the one accompanying them.

When Ye Yuxi looked at Xiaojiu, a smile appeared on his face: "Xiaojiu, this is Yazhizhai's snack, try it."

Shen Chuwei happily took it and thanked him, "Thank you, Prince."

Then she handed it to the maid next to her, who took it in.

Ye Yuxi glanced at Ye Suhan and guessed without asking that he had had breakfast with Xiaojiu.

"Xiaojiu, we have set up a stage in Zhuyuan tonight. How about we go watch a play together?"

Shen Chuwei wasn't very interested in the play, but she still asked curiously, "What play?"

Ye Yuxi said: "Liang Zhu."

Shen Chuwei was somewhat familiar with Liang Zhu when she heard about it, so she nodded and said, "Let's listen to it then."

"I'll pick you up then." Ye Yuxi looked at Ye Suhan with a smile, "Where are you planning to go, Third Brother?"

Ye Suhan replied indifferently, "Take a walk."

After saying that, he pulled Xiaojiu and continued walking forward, ignoring Ye Yuxi.

Shen Chuwei's face was full of black lines: "..."

Ye Yuxi's face also darkened when he saw Ye Suhan's actions. He was the prince after all. Not only did Ye Suhan not respect him as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he also ignored him and came to find Xiaojiu.

In the evening, Ye Yuxi came on time to pick up Xiaojiu to watch a play, but he saw Ye Suhan bringing Xiaojiu out of Wuyou Palace.

Shen Chuwei felt a little embarrassed when she saw Ye Yuxi coming.

Ye Yuxi suppressed his unhappiness, took a few steps forward, and said with a smile: "Xiaojiu, let's go, the show is about to begin."

After saying that, he looked at Ye Suhan again and asked with a smile, "Third brother, do you want to go and see it together?"

Ye Suhan lowered his eyes and glanced at Shen Chuwei, "I'm taking Xiaojiu out of the palace to play for a while, so I don't have time to watch the show."

Ye Yuxi's face turned a little ugly when he heard this, but he tried not to get angry in front of her. "Didn't Xiaojiu say that she wanted to watch a play? Why are you leaving the palace again?"

He looked at Xiaojiu with a smile, his eyes filled with doubt.

Shen Chuwei shrugged helplessly. It was really not her fault. She was also helpless.

"Let's go, the sooner we go, the sooner we'll be back."

Ye Suhan took Shen Chuwei out of Wuyou Palace.

Ye Yuxi could no longer hold back his smile. Looking at the two people walking away side by side, his face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Ye Suhan was clearly deliberately not giving him and Xiaojiu the chance to get along.

However, no matter how angry he was, he couldn't just rob people.

Inside the carriage, the space was spacious, with a low table in the middle and four lamps on the top of the carriage, which illuminated the dark interior of the carriage.

Shen Chuwei and Ye Suhan kept a very safe distance, but they were the only two people in the carriage, and they always felt oppressed by a certain aura and couldn't breathe.

She drew aside the curtains for some fresh air.

Ye Suhan watched her actions and glanced at the empty space between them. "I'm not going to eat you, so you don't have to be so afraid of me."

Shen Chu tightly grasped the car curtain, turned around to look at Ye Suhan, and said, "You forced me to jump off the building."

Ye Suhan paused when he heard this. It turned out that he was so afraid of me because of the time he jumped off the building.

"If it wasn't for him, would you have jumped off the building? You're not even going to give up your life for a man, how dare you say that?"

Shen Chuwei felt that he was the first to complain, and she angrily retorted: "You forced me to do that. If you didn't force me, I wouldn't be a fool to jump off the building. And he is my husband. Husband and wife are one body. They won't run away separately when disaster strikes."

"..." Ye Suhan: "Shut up."

Shen Chuwei immediately shut her mouth, fearing that he would get angry and kick her out of the carriage, leaving her lying on the ground, which would be too cruel.

The atmosphere in the carriage was even more tense than before.

Shen Chuwei leaned out of the carriage again and breathed in the fresh air.

When the carriage stopped, Shen Chuwei secretly glanced at Ye Suhan, only to see that he was looking at her. She immediately retracted her gaze and got off the carriage.

After getting down, I saw Ye Suhan walking out of the carriage calmly and then getting down again.

Ye Suhan lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Let's go."

Shen Chuwei asked doubtfully: "Where are we going?"

Ye Suhan glanced at the bustling streets and said, "Go wherever you want to go."

"I'm going to find Xiao Jinyan..."

Before Shen Chuwei finished speaking, Ye Suhan interrupted her coldly: "No."

Shen Chu curled her lips, "Didn't you say that I can go wherever I want?" It was a rare trip for her, so naturally she wanted to see Xiao Jinyan.

Ye Suhan explained: "I'm talking about food."

Shen Chuwei: “…”

Looking at the busy streets, there are many vendors selling food.

Shen Chuwei bought anything delicious she saw, trying to turn her anger into appetite. While eating the delicious food, she could ignore the unpredictable Ye Suhan beside her.

Along the way, Ye Suhan's hands were full of food bought by Shen Chuwei. She was responsible for eating and he was responsible for paying the bill.

Seeing Shen Chuwei's mouth never stopping, he finally couldn't help but remind her, "Eat less, it's easy to get food accumulation."

Shen Chuwei had just finished dinner and was now full. She held her swollen belly and looked up at Ye Suhan.

I feel so upset but I can't say it. Why didn't you remind me earlier? I thought you were going to kill me.

"Going back?"

Ye Suhan asked in a questioning tone, but to Shen Chuwei, it sounded no different from "go back".

Shen Chuwei nodded, and got into the carriage with Ye Suhan.

Just like when they came, Shen Chuwei and Ye Suhan kept a very safe distance.

There was no conversation along the way until they entered the palace. Shen Chuwei noticed from the corner of her eye that something was wrong with Ye Suhan. He was leaning on the armrest with his head slightly tilted, looking like he was asleep.

She called out tentatively, "Third Prince?"

Seeing that Ye Suhan didn't respond, Shen Chuwei stretched out her finger and poked his mask, but Ye Suhan still didn't react.

Sleeping so soundly?

Shen Chuwei stared at the mask for a while, somewhat curious about what he looked like. Now that the mask was off, he probably wouldn't be able to notice it, right?
