I was clearly the one asking Nannan, so why am I the one being asked now?

Yuan Xingrui didn't have time to think about it, and quickly said: "That's not true, who told you that?"

"I heard it from some people when we were staying on the road."

Qin Le said as he looked at Yuan Xingrui: "If there is none now, there will be one in the future!"

"Brother Rui will eventually marry a queen, won't he?"

Yuan Xingrui opened his mouth when he heard this, not knowing what to say.

At this time, Nannan said, "After Brother Rui marries the Queen, will he still be my Brother Rui?"

Yuan Xingrui's heart, which had been somewhat excited, gradually cooled down after hearing this.

Just now, when Nannan asked him if he wanted to marry the queen, he was full of joy. He thought Nannan had that intention towards him, but it turned out that he was overthinking.

Nannan didn't mean that at all, he was just being wishful thinking.

Thinking of this, his face became a little ugly, but he still forced himself to say:

"No matter what time it is, I am your brother Rui, and I will not let you be bullied."

Hearing this, Qin Le looked up at Yuan Xingrui.

"How does Brother Rui know that I won't be bullied?"

"Even though you are the emperor now, you can't interfere in the affairs of ordinary people, right?"

"Besides, some people hide things so well that even if they treat me badly, you can't tell, right?"

Yuan Xingrui didn’t know why Nannan mentioned this, but it didn’t affect his thinking along the lines of what Nannan said.

When he thought of the possibility that Nannan had just mentioned, he felt the blood rushing up throughout his body.

"As long as Brother Rui is here, no one can hurt you."

These words were very touching, but they were not what Nannan wanted to hear.

She continued to ask:

"What if one day the person you marry doesn't like me?"

"This is not possible!"

Yuan Xingrui said without thinking:

"No one can get past you."

Nannan lowered her head, looking somewhat pitiful: "Brother Rui may say it nicely now, but that's because you haven't met someone you like yet."

"If one day you meet someone you like, you will probably forget everything."

"how come?"

Yuan Xingrui frowned and said: "How could I forget you? You are my..."

"Your what?"

Upon hearing this, Nannan quickly looked at Yuan Xingrui.

Looking into her expectant eyes, Yuan Xingrui came back to his senses and almost spoke out what he was thinking.

He looked away and said slowly:

"You are my sister, I won't let anyone bully you."

Nannan was completely disappointed when she heard this.

It turned out that her guess was correct. Brother Rui was nice to her only because he treated her as a younger sister, and she had other thoughts in mind.

Thinking of this, she felt a little uncomfortable.

She didn't want to stay alone with Yuan Xingrui anymore, so she started to say:

"It's getting late. I'll take Huan'er back first."

"So fast?"

Yuan Xingrui couldn't help but blurt out.

He felt like only a moment had passed, how come Nannan was about to leave?

Nannan glanced at him and slowly said:

"Although you and I grew up together, we are now adults after all. It is no longer appropriate for a single man and a single woman to be together for such a long time."

She wanted to tell Yuan Xingrui that they were not biological siblings and hoped that he could see her.

However, when Yuan Xingrui heard it, it had a different meaning.

Yuan Xingrui felt a little uncomfortable. Was it impossible to treat her as his own sister?

He forced a smile and said, "You're right, Brother Rui was inconsiderate."

"I'll send someone to call Huan'er."

After saying that, he left quickly.
