Even her sickness could not conceal her stunning beauty. She was truly like a willow swaying in the wind, so delicate and charming, and her every frown and smile was full of charm.

Qin Junyu was flustered and looked away, looking at the teacup in his hand.

The foam on the surface of the tea moves slightly, it seems calm, but there are turbulent waves underneath.

He blew away the foam, took a sip, immediately put the cup down with a frown, pushed it aside with disgust, and didn't even look at it again.

Nian Susu couldn't help laughing, "Your Highness, please make do with this. This is Ganlin Temple, and we only have these coarse teas. If you can't get used to it, why don't you bring some better tea from the capital next time you come over, and I'll make it for you, how about that?"

Qin Junyu: "It's obvious that you wanted to drink, why are you putting the blame on me?"

When his little trick was discovered, Nian Susu just chuckled twice and didn't refute. He just wanted to achieve his goal.

She deliberately put on a stern face and said, "Your Highness, just decide whether to bring it or not."

Qin Junyu was helpless. "I will definitely bring it. If you need anything else, I will bring it to you."

Nian Susu thought about it and shook his head, "Not yet."

Not yet, but there may be in the future, and I will need his help.

Qin Junyu naturally understood what she meant. He didn't say much and reluctantly took another sip of tea.

Although it tastes bad, it is not to the point of being difficult to swallow.

Nian Susu held his chin and suddenly remembered that there was something he hadn't told him.

"Your Highness, do you know why the Fifth Prince asked me to come to Ganlin Temple with him?" She blinked.

She originally wanted to use this question to bring up the next topic, but judging from Qin Junyu's reaction, he didn't seem to be unaware of it.

His eyes flickered, and after a while he said, "I know a little bit."

Those four words choked her words in her throat.

So Qin Junyu knew about Qin Wenyuan's little trick? And he acquiesced to his actions?

Did he also think about asking her to marry him?

Nian Susu was in a mess and didn't know how to start.

"Did he make things difficult for you?" Qin Junyu's tone was slightly angry.

Nian Susu was stunned.

She originally wanted to tell him about the embarrassing things that happened to that little brat Qin Wenyuan in a relaxed tone, and let Qin Junyu, as the big brother, give Qin Wenyuan a lesson so that he would not dare to embarrass herself again.

But now he was serious, as if he was going to teach Qin Wenyuan a lesson for her, and the joke deviated from its original track.

She pondered for a moment, thinking about how to make this statement, and then Qin Junyu suddenly said, "I know."

She was even more confused.

"Cough, cough, cough... Your Highness, don't get me wrong, the Fifth Prince did not make things difficult for me." She tended to cough when she was emotionally excited, and she coughed for a long time before she recovered.

Qin Junyu stood up and rubbed her back, saying softly, "You don't have to say anything, I know what to do."

Nian Susu was helpless, "The Fifth Prince is just a child, how can he eat me? Don't bully him."

He pursed his lips and said nothing.

I thought he had listened to what I said, but when I saw Qin Wenyuan again a few days later, he was sitting in the corridor with his head down, looking depressed and unhappy.

Nian Susu had just returned from breakfast. He hadn't seen Qin Wenyuan come to recite scriptures in the past few days. According to Xin Jieyu, he had too much homework and had taken a few days off. He didn't expect to see him here today.

It looks like he is waiting for someone.

This person is most likely yourself.

Nian Susu strode over. She had recovered from her illness and was in a good mood with a faint smile on her face. Although she didn't like children, she enjoyed teasing them.

She especially loves children like Qin Wenyuan, who never cry or make a fuss and can only puff out his cheeks and glare when angry.

"Fifth Prince, what are you doing here? Have you finished your homework?" He said in a servile tone.

It was rare not to see Qin Wenyuan frowning and glaring. There wasn't even much emotion on his face, as if he didn't hear what she said.

With his hands behind his back and his head lowered into his chest, he looked like a child who had done something wrong. Nian Susu had never seen Qin Wenyuan like this before.

She suddenly became interested, put away her smile, sat down on the balcony, pulled Qin Wenyuan in front of her, lowered her head and asked him: "What's wrong? Were you bullied? Do you want to talk to me?"

He still didn't speak.

"Well, since you took the initiative to come to me, I will reluctantly take charge for you. Tell me, what happened?"

Qin Wenyuan is a stubborn person and is not very close to his mother. There are no people of his age here, so he has no one to talk to when he has troubles. Nian Susu feels a little sympathetic towards him and is willing to be his life mentor.

But Qin Wenyuan's reaction was unexpected.

He took a few steps back, clasped his hands, and bent his waist to 90 degrees. "I'm sorry, Miss Nian. I shouldn't have made things difficult for you. I won't do this again in the future. Please forgive me."

Nian Susu quickly reached out to help him up, "What are you doing? Get up quickly."

Qin Wenyuan remained motionless, "Please forgive me, Miss Nian."

It seemed as if he wouldn't get up unless she said she forgave him.

Nian Susu had no choice but to go along with him and said, "Okay, I forgive you."

She held his little fist and said, "Hurry up, this position is not tiring."

With a force, Qin Wenyuan pulled his hand back with a "hiss" and hid it behind his back in panic.

Nian Susu didn't understand. She didn't use much force, so why did she react so strongly?

Her intuition told her that this matter was not that simple.

Why did Qin Wenyuan come to apologize to her for no apparent reason? He looked so reluctant, as if he was being coerced by someone.

She couldn't think of anyone else except Qin Junyu.

Thinking back to what Qin Wenyuan once said, when he first started practicing calligraphy, Qin Junyu made him stand and grind the ink for four hours, it can be seen how strict he was to Qin Wenyuan.

It is not ruled out that he may "corporally punish" Qin Wenyuan this time.

"Let me see your hand." Nian Susu spread out his palm, waiting for him to hand it over.

Qin Wenyuan bit his lower lip and shook his head in embarrassment, "I'm fine."

Nian Susu frowned, lost his patience, and said in a more serious tone: "Stretch out your hand."

Qin Wenyuan had never seen her speak to him in such a stern tone. Her stern face looked very much like his royal brother.

In a moment of distraction, he actually stretched out his hands.

The little hand was placed tremblingly in her palm.

Nian Susu's back suddenly stiffened, his palms became red and swollen, and even the lines on his palms could not be seen.

"Your Highness, was he beaten?" she asked in disbelief.

How could Qin Junyu treat his brother like this?

Qin Wenyuan nodded, "Don't blame my brother, I was the one who did the wrong thing first, so I should be punished."

It's painfully sensible.

Nian Susu felt a sense of guilt in her heart. If she had not mentioned Qin Wenyuan in front of Qin Junyu, causing him to misunderstand that he was being bullied, Qin Wenyuan would not have been beaten like this.

Although she felt guilty, she still felt that Qin Junyu had gone too far. How could he be so rude to a child?

No wonder Qin Wenyuan developed such a taciturn character, it was all Qin Junyu's fault! The growing environment has a great influence on a person's character.
