Lingguang Temple.

In a quiet Zen room hidden in the back mountain.

Fang Qingge was picked up secretly alone, feeling both nervous and expectant.

Looking at the clean and tidy room, the Buddha statues on the wall, and the Heart Sutra poster, my heart suddenly calmed down.

At this moment, there were two light knocks on the rear window, followed by a muffled voice.

"Don't be afraid, it's me."

"Brother An?"

The window was gently opened and a man in black clothes jumped in.

Fang Qingge was very surprised when she saw his outfit.

Without even thinking twice, he quickly closed the door and locked it.

Turning back to look at Liang Hean, he lowered his voice and asked:

"Brother An, are you okay?"

*

Liang Hean looked up at the nervous little woman in front of him, bowed to her and smiled slightly:

"I'm fine. It's been a month since we last met. How are Miss Fang and the children?"

"Well, we are all fine. I just don't know how Brother An is doing. I am very worried."

"Thank you very much! An is indeed in some trouble and cannot meet you in public. I hope Miss Fang will understand."

Fang Qingge's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He suppressed his worries and said in a relieved tone,

"It's okay. Don't worry, Brother An. We are living a comfortable life now. This is all thanks to Brother An who took the trouble to arrange it. Qingge hasn't even thanked him yet!"

Liang Hean smiled when he heard this, pointed at the stool next to him and said:

"Miss Fang, please sit down and talk."

"Brother An, don't call me Miss Fang anymore. It sounds awkward. Just call me Qingge."

"Okay, Qingge. You must be tired from the journey. Sit down and have a cup of tea."

The two sat down and the room suddenly became quiet.

*

While drinking tea, the prince looked up at Fang Qingge, who had just finished her confinement. This was the first time he observed her from a normal angle.

Her face was like jade, her eyebrows and eyes were like paintings, and her skin was like fine porcelain, white and delicate. Her pupils were watery, and her big eyes, like those of a little deer, were full of worry for him, but she tried her best to hide it.

The pregnant woman who once had a big belly has regained her graceful figure. She is even more beautiful than when we first met, and there is a unique charm in her every move.

The prince knew that she was beautiful.

Thinking of her concern and worry for me when we first met, I don't know why, I felt happy and joyful for no reason.

But then I thought about how such a beautiful girl became a widow in her prime, and I felt even more pity for her and her children.

*

After lowering his head and taking a sip of hot tea, he heard Fang Qingge ask in a low voice,

"Brother An, what happened to the four people in the North? I have been worried about you."

The prince knew she would ask, so he could only answer ambiguously.

"Just take it one day at a time! Just take care of the two children. There's no need to worry about these things."

Fang Qingge was a little anxious when he heard this.

"Brother An, when can I secretly send a message to my family in Qinghe Village that I am safe?"

The prince straightened his expression, looked into her eyes and said seriously:

"Qingge, it's not the right time yet."

When he heard this result, which was expected, Fang Qingge still showed a hint of disappointment on his face.

She hurriedly covered up and nodded.

"I understand, Brother An. It's okay. We'll talk about it later!"

But the corners of his lips slightly raised were a bitter smile.

*

When he raised his eyes, he suddenly saw the dark circles under the prince's eyes, and couldn't help but ask with concern,

"Brother An, are you still a killer?"

"You? Why do you ask?"

Fang Qingge saw his hesitation and thought about how cautious he was in coming to the appointment. She felt that he must have no freedom and was most likely controlled by others.

I was a little worried for him.

"Brother An, I see that you are not short of money. You must have some connections. Why can't you leave this line of work? This profession is too dangerous, and you can't do it openly..."

Fang Qingge was at a loss for words and could not continue.

*

Liang He'an choked and looked down at his attire. He was wearing black clothes and a black scarf, looking mysterious.

Isn't this the result you want?

However, in front of this innocent and defenseless silly girl, he suddenly couldn't bear to lie to her any longer.

For no reason, I felt a sense of guilt.

He wanted to reveal his true identity, but was afraid of scaring this little woman.

He was even more afraid that Fang Qingge would become intimidated and alienated because of his status as the crown prince, and would no longer be close to him, and would no longer recognize her as Brother An.

"Cough cough cough..."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince choked and coughed a few times, then hurriedly put his fists against his mouth and nose.

Fang Qingge handed over her handkerchief without doing what he expected.

The prince took over and said:

"Thank you!"

*

Fang Qingge saw that he had stopped coughing and said sincerely:

"Brother An, you are a good person. Really, you have saved my mother and my two children twice!

I just saved you once, and you repay me with such gratitude.

You have arranged our lives so well and comfortably, Qingge doesn't know how to thank you, please accept my greeting."

Fang Qingge stood up and bowed to Liang Hean.

"No need." But the prince reached out and grabbed his arm and helped him up.

The slenderness and warmth of the hand were like an electric shock, which stunned both of them and they looked at each other.

It seemed as if in an instant, both of them recalled the day in Qinghe Village, the time when he fell headfirst and she struggled to help him up.

In an instant, both of their faces turned red.

The prince immediately let go of his hand, and Fang Qingge quickly turned around. Their hearts were beating wildly in sync without them realizing it.

I didn't say anything for a while, actually I didn't know what to say.

In the awkward moment, the pure sound of wooden fish was heard outside the window.

*

Fang Qingge secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said in a nonchalant manner:

"By the way, Brother An, I have prepared some pills for you. If you are injured or have caught a cold, just think about taking them. If you are not sick, you can also take them to strengthen your body.

And these few larger pills can save your life at a critical moment."

Fang Qingge kept on giving instructions, and took out a large purse and a small purse from his waist, which contained two bags full of pills.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince felt a little sad and suddenly felt moved.

There are so many people around me who care about me, but there is no one like this little woman who, although a little nagging, is always concerned about my life and safety.

These pills must have been prepared for a long time. She must have been waiting to see me before giving them to me, right?!

"Qingge, thank you so much! This house was given to you by Brother An. You and your son can stay here with peace of mind.

Don’t worry about not having enough money. Those three shops will be enough for you and your children to have comfortable food and clothing in the future.

Brother An can't give you too much. You and your son have no roots in the capital. A tall tree attracts the wind and is prone to disaster."

"Well, I understand. Don't worry! Don't worry about us. Brother An, can we meet again in the future?"
