Seeing Xiao Yang nod at her, Song Yan'er froze completely! It was like a bolt from the blue!
"Hey, cousin-in-law, aren't you excited to meet the most noble woman in the Western Shu Kingdom soon? Look at your expression, what's wrong? Are you scared? Of course, how could I not be scared? I get scared when I see her now. But don't worry, he dotes on my cousin the most. My cousin is his precious treasure and a thorn in his side. I guess he came here with my father this time just to see my cousin!"
Song Yan'er looked at Xiao Yang, wanting to hear what he had to say.
"Don't worry, she's easy to get along with. But Bai Zihua is right, she's always been very loving and forgiving towards me since I was little. It was my fault this time for leaving for so long!"

Thinking about the empress dowagers in those palace dramas I watched in my past life... Ugh, it gives me a headache. Forget it, I'll just take it one step at a time!
Xiao Yang also noticed Song Yan'er's unusual behavior. He squeezed her delicate hand tightly and looked at her as if to comfort her.
"Don't worry, I've got you covered!"
At this moment, Bai Zihua and Xiao Yuan were also looking into the distance with tense expressions. Bai Zihua was obviously afraid that his father would beat him, but the Fourth Prince's expression was quite meaningful!
