The cannon fodder female supporting role wants to run away, and the madly criticizing prince is red-

The man's name is Shen Jian.

He was silent most of the time, walking behind her with his big knife in his arms, keeping a distance of three meters from her. As long as she didn't speak, he wouldn't speak either.

Lin Qianqian was puzzled: What kind of person was he who was willing to be her bodyguard? Did he and Zhang Qi reach some kind of agreement?

She was very worried that he would report her whereabouts to Zhang Qi. If that happened, wouldn't she become a kite in the hands of that person?

When she saw Shen Jian, she thought of what Zhang Qi had done to her, and she felt even more disgusted and wanted to get rid of him immediately.

We came to the reed bank where the river was gurgling and took a boat south.

The boat was pitifully small, with only three passengers, and they had to sit next to each other. There were no single seats like on modern boats, so there was no comfort at all.

It was the first time for Lin Qianqian to ride on such a primitive boat. When she first boarded the boat, she stepped into the cabin and saw the river was so deep that she could not see the bottom. She almost fell into the water because her eyes were dizzy. She quickly squatted down, stuffed the bag into her arms, held it between her knees and abdomen, and grabbed both sides of the boat with both hands.

As a result, when Shen Jian raised his foot to get up, she was shaken and fell backwards, causing the boatman and another man on the boat to laugh.

"Look at her, she turned over like a turtle, hahahaha."

"Young lady, you have to hold on tight, stay close to the bottom of the boat, and don't let yourself be shaken off."

"Well, thank you, old man." Lin Qianqian didn't care about being ridiculed or angry. Her face turned pale, and she reached out to touch her abdomen, enduring the discomfort in her stomach.

The boat was not stable, and the speed was almost entirely dependent on human power, so how fast could it be? Several times, Lin Qianqian anxiously lay on the side of the boat, stretched her neck and vomited into the river water, only to vomit out a few strands of sour water. She really missed the modern and developed transportation, how fast it was, and she could go abroad in an hour by plane.

After walking for half a day, we arrived at another town.

Lin Qianqian got off the boat and gave Shen Jian a warm smile, "Just take me here. Thank you for your care along the way."

Shen Jian stared at the woman's pale face. She had her hair in a simple bun, almost undecorated, which made her young face look more beautiful and pretty. She had deliberately smeared some dirt on her face, which made her look a little dirty. Her white neck revealed her original skin color, as if she wanted someone to wipe her face clean to reveal her original white face.

He frowned slightly and looked away, "No."

"My duty is to protect your safety."

Can't you get rid of him if you come openly? Lin Qianqian was holding back her anger and asked patiently, "Did that man give you money? I'll give you money. I'm just a little girl, I don't need such elaborate protection. A great hero like you with great martial arts skills, it's a waste of talent to stay by my side. I think you should make achievements while you are young. Besides, I'm not that important to that man. There are so many women in this world. If I'm missing one, there are still tens of millions."

Seeing that Shen Jian's face was as still as stone after all she had said, she asked again, "Do you owe him a huge favor? Do you have to complete this?"

Shen Jian stared at Lin Qianqian and explained impatiently, "It has nothing to do with money."

"It's a commitment."

"If it's a promise, you must do it. The feelings between brothers are something you women won't understand."

Lin Qianqian found it funny. Seeing such chauvinistic remarks, she couldn't help but want to argue with them and expose their narcissism.

"I don't understand the love between brothers, and I don't want to understand it. It seems so noble. Doesn't love mean sacrificing for each other? There are also parents who sacrifice themselves for their children, and there are sisters and comrades who go through life and death together. Family love, friendship, love, sisterhood, brother-sister love, sister-brother love, the moment of sacrificing life in adversity, is no less than the brotherhood you talk about. Even the stranger who jumped into the water to save the child and died heroically, is it not as good as the brotherhood you talk about?"

All the words that Shen Jian wanted to say in defense were blocked.

He suppressed the resentment in his chest and said coldly, "Very good, you have a sharp tongue."

"You're really like a hedgehog. You always come over and prick men when you see them. No wonder so many men don't like you."

Lin Qianqian's lips were filled with a pleased smile, "Why do I have to please all men? Is it a lucky thing to be liked by them? It would be better to make me rich than to be liked by them."

Aren’t what they like the good wives and mothers who are taught by ancient society to be gentle, not cause trouble, and are as beautiful as flowers?

She would become a thorn and make them unhappy.

Besides, being liked by most of the ancient men was not bad, as they had not yet evolved the progressive ideas that modern men have. In an era when women were treated as objects and playthings, their liking was to treat people as objects for enjoyment.

Lin Qianqian thought for a moment and said, "I don't like strange men getting close to me and spending time with me. Besides, others will misunderstand me. You haven't married yet, right? What if the girl you like misunderstands you?"

Shen Jian showed a mocking smile in his eyes, "Are you still worried about your reputation being damaged?"

"I'm not married. So what if it's a misunderstanding? A woman who misunderstands others casually and can't tolerate other women. First, she's not smart, and second, she's narrow-minded. It's better to just treat such a woman as a misunderstanding."

Lin Qianqian was completely speechless.

She glared at Shen Jian angrily, bit her red lips and blew up her bangs, making every strand of hair fly.

She turned her back and said, "Okay, follow me if you want. If you like being a dog, then be it."

Lin Qianqian picked up her bag and walked to the roadside noodle stall. She asked the owner for a bowl of plain noodles and asked him to put a fried egg in it.

She took out a pair of wooden chopsticks from the bamboo tube, and seeing Shen Jian sitting down in front of her, she put down the big knife and pursed her lips unconsciously.

She picked up the thin white noodles with chopsticks and put them into her mouth, staring at the broad blade and wondering if she should get herself a knife for self-defense.

She had her hairpin remade by a craftsman before, so it could be used to stab people at critical moments, but she felt that it was less intimidating than other weapons.

"You insulted me."

Shen Jian suddenly spoke.

Lin Qianqian raised her head and looked at him with her round eyes, "Yes, I insulted you."

"It must be unpleasant to be insulted by a woman like this, so go away."

"madness."

"I have never seen a woman as stupid as you."

Shen Jian's eyes were filled with anger.

"Believe it or not, as long as I'm a hundred meters away from you, someone will put you in a sack and carry you away? How do you think you got here safely? If it weren't for me, there would have been a man with bad intentions who covered your mouth and dragged you away at the dock just now."

……

Thinking of the walk hand in hand in the Imperial Garden after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet last night, Gu Huai was in an extremely good mood.

He said to a plate of exquisite bright yellow mooncakes on the table, "It was originally Mid-Autumn Festival, and I asked my family to prepare the egg yolk-filled mooncakes that Qianqian likes in advance. Unfortunately, she is in the palace, so I can only wait for her to come back to eat together. With her in the Marquis' Mansion, it will be a real reunion."

As he spoke, he began to laugh, "May we live long and share the beauty of the moon even though we are thousands of miles apart. If love is long-lasting, why would it matter if we were together day and night? It's only been these two days, but when I think of her, I still want to see her desperately."

Taozhi walked in and put down the teapot in her hand. "Prince, please be patient for a while. Auntie will be back soon. Then you two can be together every day."

"The weather is getting colder. I sewed a cotton coat for my aunt. I think she can wear it when she comes back."

"I have also prepared cotton shoes and gloves for the winter."

Gu Huai thought of something and scratched his cheek. "For the winter, I have to sew new clothes for her. It would be nice to make her two more sets so she can change into them. I have to make them beautiful for her."

Taozhi said happily, "Yes, my Lord."
