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

Under the harsh gaze of Shen Jian's sharp eyes, Lin Qianqian was defeated step by step.

She hurriedly picked up the chopsticks beside the bowl, picked up the noodles and stuffed another mouthful into her mouth, but the noodles were stuck in her throat and she couldn't swallow them.

She clenched her chopsticks, "I know. I admit... you protected me along the way."

"But,"

She raised her tearful eyes and looked at Shen Jian, tears hanging on her curled black eyelashes, "When I saw you, I thought of that person... Do you know what he did to me?"

"This is the first time I hate someone like this."

Shen Jian turned his eyes away.

His face was so indifferent, "That's between you two, it has nothing to do with me."

“I only fulfill my promises.”

"besides,"

He paused, his large protruding throat rolling over, "He said that you are his woman, and he asked me to protect your safety."

"How bad can a man be to his woman? Why are you being so hypocritical? Do you know that he has put a lot of thought into you by asking me to come, and you are not grateful at all?"

Lin Qianqian didn't even want to eat the noodles. She stood up and slammed her chopsticks on the table. "Thank you?"

Her chest heaved violently. "Just because he's a little bit nice to me, should I be grateful?"

"Every time I see you, I think of what he did to me. Do you know how much torture it was to my body and mind, and how much pain it brought me?"

"Do women have to be grateful for every little bit of self-righteousness you men have shown us? Is it because you are the masters of this era?"

Lin Qianqian sat down again. "I don't want to see you, nor do I want your protection. I would rather have someone else to protect my safety."

Shen Jian sneered, with a mockery that he couldn't suppress on his lips, "What a wild idea."

"Why do you want a strange man to protect you? With your bad personality? Is it just because of your face? Some lustful men will be tempted, so what? Do you want to exchange your body for his protection?"

With a "pa", a slap landed hard on Shen Jian's face.

Lin Qianqian's lips trembled slightly as she opened them. "Why do I have to be protected by a man? Can't I protect myself?"

"I just don't believe I can't protect myself."

Lin Qianqian picked up the bag on the table neatly without even raising her head, "You can leave, leave now!"

Shen Jian grabbed Lin Qianqian's arm, which hurt her a lot. Lin Qianqian slapped his iron-like hand hard, but he squeezed harder, causing her to scream in pain. "This is the first time I've been slapped in the face by a woman like this."

"I won't leave until the promise is fulfilled."

"If it wasn't a promise, I wouldn't protect a woman like you."

"Do you think men are so stupid? Do they listen to you just because you are beautiful? Do they do everything according to your ideas? When they try to please you, listen to you, and say nice things to you, they have already set their sights on your body."

"Do you think everyone likes to do good deeds and be a gentleman who helps a girl without asking for anything in return?"

Lin Qianqian finally freed her hand. Her slender wrist was pinched red and her bones were still aching.

Shen Jian scolded, "See? I can subdue you with one hand. You have only slightly more strength than the cats and dogs on the street."

"Also, you are very good-looking. Which man wouldn't want to pick up a beautiful wife on the street and take her home? Wouldn't it be nice to have an extra woman to serve you?"

Lin Qianqian buried her head in eating the half-cold noodles in the bowl, stuffed the poached egg into her mouth whole, and picked up the bowl to drink up all the soup.

No matter how bland the meal was or how inedible the food was, she had to eat it. Only when her body had energy could she cope with whatever was going to happen next.

Moreover, she didn't have much money, so she had to spend it carefully.

Lin Qianqian got on the carriage to Suzhou. Holding the bag in her arms, she said to Shen Jian who was coming up behind her, "If you refuse to leave, don't blame me for saying something unpleasant."

"Anyway, I'm not a woman here who will say anything. Sooner or later, you won't be able to stand it."

Shen Jian just twitched the corners of his mouth slightly.

He glanced at Lin Qianqian with disdain, then closed his eyes calmly and rested.

Seeing how thick-skinned he was, Lin Qianqian thought that he must have some male chauvinism in him. This kind of male narcissist would fly into a rage when a woman belittled him and his self-esteem was hurt, just like the Ninth Prince. Only a smart woman like the heroine who knows how to deal with people would consider their face and inner feelings when speaking.

She really couldn't stand this kind of male chauvinist tone. They were all so arrogant and proud, so confident that they thought that as men they were like gods and could dominate women at will.

It looks like she needs a strong dose of medicine.

However, she really wanted to find out whether Zhang Qi had other purposes in sending him here. Lin Qianqian said, "I told you all my thoughts frankly."

"Tell me about yourself, what exactly did that person send you here for? To monitor me? Or to escort me?"

There was silence in the carriage for a long time.

The wheels rolled over the muddy ground, and the wind lifted a corner of the curtain, revealing the bleak autumn forest outside. Dead leaves were scattered all over the ground, and the upright branches were bare, with only the wind passing through.

The man held the sword, his shoulders swaying slightly with the carriage, "It's okay to tell you."

"First, to protect you and prevent other men from bullying you."

"Second, to protect you and prevent you from running away with another man."

"When you discover how dangerous the outside world is, you'll know that women should stay in the yard."

Lin Qianqian wanted to laugh, "What kind of protection is that? It's clearly surveillance. How ridiculous! Did I run away with another man?"

"What qualifications do you have to control me? Can you take care of yourself first?"

The setting sun shone on Shen Jian's clothes, and also dyed his eyes with a layer of golden light. His pupils turned golden, half of his face was glowing, and the other half was in gray.

He said, "A good woman should not serve two husbands. Since you have become his woman, you must abide by the rules of being a wife."

Lin Qianqian almost flew into a rage for the first time. "I want to be a faithful wife, but which man came to insult me? You want me to be a faithful wife to a man like this, are you crazy?"

……

A day passed, and thinking that Lin Qianqian would be leaving the palace one day later, Gu Huai's mood became excited again, and he couldn't hold back any longer.

By the way, he will go to the palace later to ask Qianqian what time she will leave the palace tomorrow so that he can send someone to pick her up and take her back home. He has to go to pick her up in person.

After bringing her back, I must praise her in front of my mother. Then it will be natural to promote her to be my equal wife.

Before that, he had to talk to his mother first. Gu Huai couldn't wait to go to Yu's room and took her aside to tell her about the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

"Mother, you don't know how amazing Qianqian is. She is deeply loved by the Queen Mother. The Emperor couldn't help but praise her, and she received many rewards."

"Think about it. She is favored by the Queen Mother and will be summoned to the palace by her in the future. When others talk about her, they say that she is just a concubine in our mansion. Will they think that we are despising the person favored by the Queen Mother? What will the Queen Mother think? Will she think that we are not treating her well? Are we mistreating her?"
