You have asked for permission to marry, why should I restrain myself?

Ah.

It turned out to be waiting for her here.

Lin Zhaoyue paused for a moment while picking up the food. She raised her head calmly, looked him straight in the eyes, and asked in confusion:

"I am a stupid subject. I don't know what the Crown Prince is talking about."

Meeting Lin Zhaoyue's gaze, Xiao Yan chuckled:

"Zhao Zhao, has anyone ever told you that you can't lie?"

The way she looked up in pretended confusion and then looked him straight in the eyes to show her sincerity was fake.

I don't know who she was trying to deceive.

Seeing that she was calm even after being exposed by him, Xiao Yan narrowed his narrow eyes slightly.

There has been some progress.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has sharp eyes. I dare not lie to you. I just don't know what you are talking about. I am terrified. Please explain clearly."

He even speaks in official language.

Just as Lin Zhaoyue was waiting for Xiao Yun's words, the man suddenly leaned over, and the two of them were only a fist away from each other. Her nostrils were filled with the rich smell of ambergris coming from his body.

The cold hand touched the woman's slender and warm neck, rubbing it gently, and a devilish voice sounded in her ears:

"How much force do you think I need to use to break it?"

His warm breath fanned her neck, and the temperature of his hands was colder than a snake.

Thinking of the scene outside the Huguo Temple, Lin Zhaoyue's body suddenly tensed up.

Sick, crazy, perverted!

Lin Zhaoyue really suspected that he was not a normal person.

"I think that no matter how stupid the prince is, he would never do anything in the Duke's Mansion."

"So Zhao Zhao is scolding Gu Chun?"

Her skin was very white, so white that you could see the throbbing blood vessels beneath the skin and the thyroid cartilage moving due to tension.

The girl's neck has smooth and slender lines, and her skin is smooth and tender, which looks very easy to pinch.

"I heard that when a person is strangled by the neck, he or she will not die immediately, but will first hear the sound of his or her bones breaking. Zhao Zhao, do you want to try it?"

Lin Zhaoyue restrained her emotions, reached out and grabbed his wrist, and spoke with a cold voice:

"If Your Highness wants to give it a try, I can help you."

Xiao Yun lowered his eyes and looked at her, his lips slightly curled, and the cat finally stretched out its sharp claws hidden in its pink pads.

But it's not sharp enough.

Lin Zhaoyue felt her body lighten and the world spun around her. By the time she could focus her vision, she was already in Xiao Yan's arms, sitting on his lap, with her long legs straddling her sides.

This pose can be as ferocious as it can be.

This guy is not the Crown Prince at all, he is clearly a pervert.

Lin Zhaoyue's face turned red with anger.

The face that had turned pale due to illness now looked as red as the sunset glow.

Looking at her slightly red eyes, a hint of morbid greed and desire flashed in her black ice-like pupils.

I wanted to make her cry like in my dream, meowing like a kitten, soft and gentle.

The sweet voice has a pitiful crying tone.

He wrapped his big hand around hers and led her hand to her neck:

"Zhao Zhao, come on, use your strength."

This is what he asked for.

Lin Zhaoyue's chest heaved violently. She closed her eyes and gradually tightened her hands.

As long as they kill him and then kill Liu Yiyi, the Lin family will be safe.

Just a little more effort...

The hands with thin calluses are not as soft as before, but have a little more strength.

Xiao Yan looked at the person with closed eyes and felt the strength on his neck. If he really didn't resist, she could really strangle him to death.

He seemed to hear the crisp sound of breaking bones, and at this moment, he could clearly feel her hatred for him.

But where does her hatred come from?

In a trance, Xiao Yan remembered that dream...

When Xiao Yan was about to suffocate and was about to raise his hand to knock her out, the girl on him fell limply on him.

Only then did Xiao Yun realize that the girl's face was terribly pale.

His heart trembled, and he picked up the girl and called for help.

Xiao Ran didn't understand why Zhao Zhao fainted just a moment after she went out.

She looked at Xiao Yan with some confusion, only to see that he was staring at the person on the bed without blinking, as if he was afraid that the person in front of him would disappear if he blinked.

Xiao Ran suddenly tasted something different...

"Miss, you are suffering from the soul-leaving syndrome again. Didn't I remind you before? You must avoid extreme mood swings."

Any doctor would be disappointed with people who don't follow medical advice.

"Soul Separation Certificate?"

A deep voice suddenly interrupted.

Mrs. Lin was so worried about her daughter that she couldn't care about anyone else. She asked:

"Is Zhao Zhao okay?"

"I will prescribe her some more medicine. She will be fine after taking it for a few days. But she must remember not to have big mood swings in the future. This disease will damage her mind when it strikes."

Hearing that his daughter was fine, Xiao Yan was Zhao Zhao's future husband after all, so there was no need to hide it, so Duke Lin said:

"Zhao Zhao was naughty when he was young. He insisted on following his elder brother to go hunting. Later, he got lost and fell into a trap in the mountains. He then suffered from soul separation syndrome. It is not a serious illness. Please rest assured, Prince."

Just as Xiao Yan was about to say something, Feng Xin hurriedly walked in from outside.

She whispered in his ear, and the man frowned slightly.

Duke Lin saw that Xiao Yan was busy, so he waited for Feng Xin to finish his report and then took the initiative to speak:

"Prince, my daughter is fine. I and my wife can take care of her here. If you have anything else to deal with, please go ahead."

Xiao Yan looked at the person on the bed for a while before speaking:

"Let Zhao Zhao have a good rest. I will come back another day."

Seeing that Xiao Yan didn't leave after finishing his words, Lin Guogong said:

"His Royal Highness?"

Xiao Yan paused for a moment, then finally pulled out an exquisite box from his sleeve:

"This is for Zhao Zhao. Please trouble Duke Lin to give it to her on my behalf."

Duke Lin was an experienced person. When he saw the prince's thoughtful and troubled look, he guessed that the item inside must be a token of love, so he happily accepted it.

After leaving the Duke's Mansion, Xiao Yun went straight to the Lanting Waterside Pavilion.

In the dungeon, a corpse with a missing arm was lying quietly on the ground.

Red blood kept flowing out from the sword marks on his neck, and there was not much good flesh left on that man's body.

This man was the one Xiao Yun caught outside the Huguo Temple last time. He was an intelligence contact of the Shadow Moon Sect, and was specifically responsible for helping the remnants of the previous dynasty collect information from various sources.

He was very stubborn, and no matter what means he used, he never uttered a single word.

Shen Yanzhou stood aside. He was always handsome and suave, but now he had several wounds on his body and was bleeding. It was obvious that he had been through a fierce battle.

“She disappeared when we chased her to the bamboo forest outside the city, but judging from her sword skills and body shape, she is the same person as last time. This time she is determined to die, and the one who died last time is just a scapegoat.

Your Highness, the power of those people from the previous dynasty is even stronger than we imagined. If we don’t eradicate them as soon as possible, the consequences will be disastrous.”

"Is there any other useful information?"

Shen Yanzhou shook his head. The other party had done it too cleanly. All useful clues were erased.

The clue is broken again.

Everyone was silent.

"Has the family been found?"

"It will be arranged in another courtyard."

"Go and see..."

……

When Lin Zhaoyue just woke up, before she could see the surroundings clearly, Xiao Ran rushed over and hugged her, crying and telling her about her worries.

"Oh my God, I'm glad you're okay. I was so scared. How can I live without you..."

Watching her exaggerated performance, Lin Zhaoyue: …

Lord Lin: ...

Mrs. Lin: ...

Lin Wan: …

"Are you feeling unwell? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat some medicinal food?"

Hearing the word "medicinal diet", Lin Zhaoyue quickly shook her head.

Seeing her shaking her head, Xiao Ran turned to Lord Lin and said:

"Duke Lin, Zhao Zhao is not feeling unwell nor is she hungry. Didn't the Crown Prince give Zhao Zhao a gift?"

Xiao Ran nodded.

Lin Zhaoyue looked at Xiao Ran with an expression that said "I want to see, I want to see" and said again:...

Duke Lin exclaimed, and took out the gift box that Xiao Yun had asked him to pass on to Lin Zhaoyue.

In fact, he was also quite curious about what was inside.

As soon as Lin Zhaoyue took the box, everyone came over, their faces full of curiosity.

Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Zhaoyue slowly opened the box.

The box contained an extremely ordinary, even inferior white jade bracelet.
