While lost in thought, Mu Chenshuang felt a warmth on the back of her hand as it was enveloped by a large hand. Startled, she quickly withdrew her hand.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Mu Chenshuang clenched her hands, looked away from Shen Nanzhi's face, and stood up to walk towards the door.
"I imagine there are quite a few people secretly watching us these days. Nan Zhi, be careful. I should probably go out for a free clinic soon." Mu Chenshuang said, opening the door and making a move to walk out.
Shen Nanzhi had countless tender words he wanted to say to her, but at that moment they were all stuck in his throat, and he could only helplessly accept his fate, get up and walk out with her.
As Mu Chenshuang and Shen Nanzhi walked out of the main courtyard one after the other and were about to reach the gate of the Marquis's mansion, they saw Mu Chunxi about to leave.
Mu Chunxi turned around upon hearing footsteps. In that split second of eye contact, her gaze, that of Mu Chenshuang, and that of Shen Nanzhi was like a sharp blade, as if whoever's gaze was more piercing could shoot out a blade to kill the other faster.
Mu Chenshuang instantly withdrew her murderous gaze, passed by Mu Chunxi expressionlessly, and calmly boarded the carriage. Linglong behind her quickly jogged a few steps to catch up.
Once inside the carriage, Mu Chenshuang lifted the curtain, watched Shen Nanzhi mount his horse, bid him farewell, and then casually glanced at Mu Chunxi.
Mu Chenshuang lowered the sedan curtain, the carriage started moving again, and she leaned against the carriage, lost in thought.
Recently, Mu Chunxi has been visiting the Marquis's residence much more frequently, and she is completely different from before. The fierce aura around her has also become much stronger, making it impossible for Mu Chunxi to ignore her.
It seems that, in addition to the things I need to do right now, I also need to figure out what Mu Chunxi is busy with.
There was nothing unusual about the free clinic that day, except that the man who had been coughing up blood, although his condition had stabilized and he was no longer in danger of dying, had fallen into a coma.
Mu Chenshuang was not yet sure how dangerous this person was, nor how much useful information she could get from him, so she simply used basic medications to maintain his vital signs for the time being, without wasting too much of her energy trying to cure him.
After all, she is currently facing a complex and dangerous situation, and she needs to consider things more carefully.
After the free clinic ended that day, before returning to the Marquis's residence, Mu Chenshuang went to the Prince Xiaoyao's residence and met Feng Ji.
Feng Ji still looked leisurely and indifferent to worldly affairs. As soon as he saw Mu Chenshuang arrive, a carefree smile immediately appeared on his handsome face. He joked, "It's been a long time since I've seen Princess Weiyang. You are truly an honored guest."
Feng Ji, who was fishing by the pond in his own palace, put away his fishing rod and walked towards Mu Chenshuang with a smile.
Looking at Feng Ji's calm and composed face, Mu Chenshuang even felt that while they were all living in a turbulent and chaotic world, Feng Ji was living in a peaceful and prosperous era, truly as carefree as his title suggested.
"Princess, you're not coming at this hour just to freeload a meal here, are you? Well then, I'll arrange for someone to prepare it right away," Feng Ji said cheerfully.
Mu Chenshuang glanced at him speechlessly and said indifferently, "Does the Prince of Xiaoyao really think that I, the princess, am here to freeload?"
Seeing Mu Chenshuang's serious expression and her cold eyes staring at him, he felt a little guilty and had no choice but to awkwardly put away his smile and say, "Of course not. The princess has come to see me because she has something very important to discuss."
