Han Yu'an rode his horse slowly to the two of them. His skin was exceptionally fair under the snow, and his calm expression made Cui Yulu wonder if he cared about her.
"Why are you here? But the problem has been solved. The next issue is how to deal with these scumbags."
"You are my wife, shouldn't I have come?"
His voice was unusually cold, and one could even detect a hint of anger.
“That’s not what I meant. I just think it’s too dangerous for you to come alone. You shouldn’t have come.”
"I shouldn't have come, so you mean he should have come, right?"
Han Yu'an was somewhat agitated, gripping Cui Yulu's arm with his large hands, his eyes seemingly burning with anger.
"What's wrong with you? I was just worried about you, and you got angry like this. And you hurt me."
Cui Yulu shook off his hand with fear in her eyes; she had other things to do.
Fu Xiaoyu walked over and looked at Han Yu'an, her face expressionless, only looking at Cui Yulu with concern.
"Are there any other injuries on your body?"
"No, have you forgotten that I'm a doctor? How could I get injured myself?"
Looking at the girl's playful appearance, Fu Xiaoyu smiled and said, "It's best not to do such dangerous things in the future. After all, if Tuoba Xuan hadn't been lying in ambush here today, I wouldn't have been so lucky to meet you."
Cui Yulu thought to herself that this man was quite narcissistic, but even without them, she could escape; it would just take a little effort.
"Your Highness, what are your plans to do with these people?"
Lin Yun couldn't stand her prince's narcissistic behavior any longer, so she interrupted their conversation. Han Yu'an's eyes were already murderous.
After all, they are still husband and wife, and the prince's behavior is somewhat unethical.
"As I just said, arrest them and lock them up first, then exile them three thousand miles away along with the other prisoners."
The four were completely dumbfounded. They never expected to run into such a tough opponent this time. Under Cui Yulu's treatment, the girls gradually woke up.
When Han Chunying woke up, she still looked for Lin Fusheng. She remembered that after giving him winter clothes, she felt dizzy and then remembered nothing.
How did I end up here the moment I opened my eyes?
"Chunying, look who I am!"
Still in a daze, Han Chunying saw Cui Yulu and immediately hugged her.
"Sister-in-law, where am I? Where is Fusheng? How is he?"
Cui Yulu was speechless at her sister-in-law's behavior. She still didn't understand what was going on and was still thinking about Lin Fusheng.
"Go down and see for yourself, and you'll understand what's going on."
Cui Yulu draped a cotton-padded coat over her and helped her down from the carriage. Meanwhile, Lin Fusheng and his group had already been tied up.
"Fusheng, what happened? How did you end up tied up with them?"
Lin Fusheng didn't look up or even glance at her. He admitted that among all the girls, Han Chunying was the only one who was truly sincere towards him, but he himself was a liar, and he had to be heartless.
"What exactly happened to my sister-in-law?"
So Cui Yulu told her the whole story. At this point, Han Chunying realized that she had been deceived and had almost implicated her sister-in-law. She felt extremely remorseful.
"Lin Fusheng, I was worried you were cold or hungry, but I never expected you to be such a wolf in sheep's clothing. I was blind to have helped you."
"I'm a fraud, it's your own fault for being blind. What does it have to do with me? You should be more careful in the future and not be so easily fooled."
These words, seemingly mocking Han Chunying, were actually a sincere reminder that Han Chunying was naive and easily deceived.
"Hmph, I will never trust men again. You are all liars."
Han Chunying turned around angrily, and all the men present felt that this girl's thought process was extraordinary, which could kill all men with one blow.
They were busy until early in the morning before they finally sent all the girls home. Cui Yulu and the others didn't arrive home until dawn.
The Han family, who hadn't slept a wink all night, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Cui Yulu and the others return safely.
However, seeing the people following behind made my heart jump again.
"Grandma, Uncle, Aunt, we're back. We're back unharmed."
Cui Yulu greeted them enthusiastically and introduced Fu Xiaoyu and Lin Yun to them again.
Knowing that they were the ones who saved Cui Yulu and Han Chunying, Liu Meie quickly prepared breakfast to entertain them.
"Daping, quickly go and call the village head over. This matter must be resolved properly."
Because Han Quan called the village head to come and testify, such a person cannot be kept in the family genealogy.
"Your clothes are all wet, go inside and change so you don't catch a cold."
As soon as Fu Xiaoyu finished speaking, he realized it was inappropriate, so he said again, "Miss Chunying, you should change your clothes quickly. It's not too late to talk after you've changed your clothes."
Lin Yun, who was standing to the side, felt that the prince was different from before. He had become much more talkative and even had a bit of a meddlesome air about him.
Liu Xiuying glanced at Cui Yulu and Han Chunying and saw that their shoes and socks were indeed soaked: "Look at me, I was so careless that I got carried away with my joy. Why didn't I go and change my clothes? I had to be reminded. I deserve a beating."
Fu Xiaoyu blushed slightly, realizing that she had overstepped her bounds.
He glared at Lin Yun beside him, wondering why he didn't remind him.
Lin Yun felt bewildered after being glared at. He was also wronged; when he saw Miss Cui, the prince's mouth was completely out of control.
"Yu'an, you're so careless. You didn't even remind your wife that her shoes and socks were wet. You deserve to be hit."
Liu Xiuying whispered a reminder to her grandson. As someone with experience, she could tell at a glance what Fu Xiaoyu's feelings were for Cui Yulu. If her grandson didn't make an effort, the relationship between the two would definitely run into problems.
Han Yu'an nodded blankly and followed Cui Yulu toward the house.
"You don't need to come with me. You should stay with Grandma and help entertain Fu Xiaoyu and the others. We might need them a lot in the future, so we need to build good relationships with them now."
"Do you really not want me to be with you, or do you feel ashamed to be with me?"
Cui Yulu was baffled by his question. She really didn't know what was wrong with this man lately; he was always talking in a sarcastic and unsettling way.
"What do you mean? How could I think you're shameful? You know that kind of thinking is dangerous."
"Then tell me why you wouldn't let me come with you, and why you wouldn't let me go to rescue you. Isn't it because you think I'm stupid?"
Cui Yulu was completely speechless. It was disheartening that he thought of her like that.
“I was worried you would get hurt. You didn’t see how good Lin Fusheng’s archery is. He never misses a shot. If you were the first one there, you would definitely get hurt. Luckily you weren’t the first one, so I don’t have to worry about you.”
Looking into her bright and clear eyes, Han Yu'an suddenly realized that his own inferiority complex had caused him to misunderstand her concern for him.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. Please don't be angry."
After Han Yu'an finished speaking, he turned and left with a blush on his face. Cui Yulu watched his back and found him inexplicably cute.
