Shen Qingyan changed her previous gentle smile and dodged his hand without leaving a trace, her tone distant and cold.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My wrist is fine. In comparison, Your Highness should just pay more attention to my sister."

Shen Qingyan was so jealous that her eyes were almost burning with anger.

Gu Chenan frowned and whispered in a voice that only two people could hear: "Yan'er, are you still angry with me?"

"I dare not." Shen Qingyan took a step back, her eyes full of coldness, as if she didn't want to waste any time talking to him.

Gu Chenan didn't feel like he was being used and abandoned. Instead, he moved forward and wanted to say something, but Shen Qingyan turned and walked towards the waiter.

"Please tell me who is qualified to own this Dragon Roar Sword?"

The man said without hesitation: "Of course, what the princess did with the Dragon Roar Sword is more meaningful. This sword should be yours."

Shen Yunjiao couldn't hold it in any longer and shouted angrily, "Just because she used her sword to push a broken box? This is really unfair!"

The waiter was not afraid at all. Hearing this, he said with a fake smile: "Miss Shen is right. It's not only because the princess caught the box with her sword, but also because she saved a person. If it weren't for her, the box would probably fall on this waiter."

What I mean is, you have to accept it whether you like it or not, because I have the final say on the ownership of this sword.

"Don't be angry, sister. What you did is very meaningful." Shen Qingyan said to Shen Yunjiao very sincerely, "After all, using a sword to chop a pillar is something that most people can't do."

Most people would use a sword to chop an iron pillar when they have nothing better to do, and would end up chopping themselves into a squatting position.

"you!"

Shen Yunjiao's face turned red and white, but she couldn't utter a word in rebuttal.

Seeing this, Gu Chenan's mood improved again. It seemed that Shen Qingyan was sincere in giving him the sword and was willing to turn against each other.

So he stepped forward again and signaled the guard behind him to hand the silver and money to the waiter.

"I paid for this sword."

The waiter looked at Shen Qingyan, and seeing that she had no intention of objecting, he smiled respectfully and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Then the sword was put back into the scabbard and placed in an exquisite brocade box.

"My Lady Princess, would you like me to escort you to the palace?"

"No need, I'll take it back myself."

"Yes."

After the guy handed the sword to Zhiqing Zhiyu, Shen Qingyan turned around and left.

Gu Chenan was stunned for a moment, then felt a little confused.

Wasn't this sword a gift to him?

His mind turned, and he suddenly understood.

His birthday is coming soon, and Shen Qingyan must have wanted to give him this sword on his birthday, but now that he has seen it, it is difficult for her to admit it.

Gu Chenan looked at Shen Qingyan's departing back, a smile appearing at the corner of his lips.

Shen Yunjiao saw all of this. She was furious, but she didn't dare to vent her anger on Gu Chenan.

"Brother Chen An..."

Shen Yunjiao shed tears of grievance one after another. She carefully pulled Gu Chenan's sleeve and cried like a pear blossom in the rain. I felt pity for her.

"Brother Chen'an, what did Jiao'er do wrong to make you so disgusted..."

Gu Chen'an was upset by her crying, but remembering that she would be useful to him in the future, he patiently coaxed her.

"Didn't I say that Shen Qingyan should not be angered again? You insist on going against me. If she can no longer be used by me, you will be held responsible."

Shen Yunjiao's face froze. She was not stupid and she obviously realized that Gu Chenan was not angry about this at all. His attitude towards Shen Qingyan was obviously very different from before.

Even his attitude towards her and Shen Qingyan gradually changed.

No, it can't be like this.

Brother Chen An can only belong to her, so why should Shen Qingyan have the right?

Thinking of this, Shen Yunjiao lowered her eyes and said softly, "Don't be angry, my lord. Jiao'er knows."

Seeing his sincere attitude, Gu Chenan softened his tone.

"Pay attention in the future."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Shen Yunjiao slowly raised her head, her eyes that were tearful just now were now filled with anger and hatred.

Shen Qingyan, don't be too proud. One day, I will make you pay the price and trample you under my feet!

On the way back to Prince Su's Mansion, Shen Qingyan was in a very happy mood.

I got the priceless Dragon Roar Sword without spending a penny. If I give it to Gu Beihuai, he should be happy, right?

But does this count as offering gifts to Buddha through borrowing flowers?

Who cares? She didn’t force Gu Chenan to buy it.

After returning home, Shen Qingyan excitedly went to Qingyue Courtyard holding the sword.

"My Lord, look what good things I brought you?"

"Your Majesty..."

However, before she even stepped through the door, she was turned away.

"The prince is resting, please go back, princess."

A tall black-clad guard with a stern face said coldly.

This person was none other than Ji Feng, another personal bodyguard of Gu Beihuai. He had been working outside for Gu Beihuai and just happened to come back today.

Shen Qingyan frowned slightly. This Ji Feng was not as easy to talk to as Shu Feng. Why did Gu Beihuai suddenly change his side?

"Where's Shuofeng? Why is it you?"

Ji Feng did not answer, but just made a gesture of invitation and spoke in a stiff tone.

"Please go back, Princess."

Shen Qingyan pouted, feeling a little annoyed.

Did Gu Beihuai let Ji Feng stop her because he didn't want to see her?

But she should know why he was angry, right?

"Then I'll wait here." Shen Qingyan did what she said and waited at the door with a sword in her arms.

This made Ji Feng a little overwhelmed.

The prince only ordered not to let her in, but he did not say that she could not wait here.

After hesitating for a moment, Ji Feng did not chase anyone away and continued to stand at the door without looking away.

Shen Qingyan felt bored, so she spoke to Ji Feng one sentence at a time.

"Monsoon, why do you always have a stern face?"

Ji Feng said coldly: "I was born this way."

"How can someone be born with a cold face?" Shen Qingyan shook her head and said seriously, "You look handsome, but if you keep looking so unapproachable, you won't be able to find a wife in the future."

Ji Feng's face flushed slightly, and after a moment's silence his tone was still cold.

"I do not intend to marry."

"How can that be?" Shen Qingyan looked at him with a smile, "Although a man has ambitions, he still has to marry and have children. I understand that you want to swear allegiance to the prince, but you also have to think about yourself, right?"

"Look at Shuofeng. He's not as cold and inhuman as you are."

Ji Feng felt that the princess was different from before.

He had just returned and didn't know the changes that had taken place in Shen Qingyan in recent days.

Before, she didn't even bother to take a second look at the prince, so how could she possibly notice these guards?

But today...it's really weird.

Ji Feng didn't know how to respond, so he just remained silent.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Qingyan shook her head helplessly, "Forget it, you and Shufeng are different after all. You will suffer in front of the prince in the future."

Ji Feng couldn't hold it back any longer after enduring for a long time, and asked in a strange voice, "Why?"

Shen Qingyan blinked mischievously, "I'll tell you as long as you let me in."

Ji Feng felt that the princess seemed to be playing a trick on him.

So the conversation ended and the topic returned to the starting point.

"Please go back, Princess."

Shen Qingyan: “…”

"Can you say anything else besides this?"

She gritted her teeth secretly, this kid Ji Feng was really stubborn!

Ji Feng thought about it and changed his words, "Please come back another day, Princess."

"..."

Since there was no way to communicate, Shen Qingyan decided not to communicate and plunged in with the sword in hand.

Ji Feng was startled and immediately stepped forward to stop him, but Zhiqing and Zhiyu stopped him on the left and right.

Shen Qingyan took the opportunity to push open the door and shouted excitedly: "Prince!"

To her surprise, Ji Feng did not lie and Gu Beihuai was indeed taking a nap.

He lay on the bed with his tall figure on his side, his back to her, and the quilt only covered half of his body.

Shen Qingyan felt a little strange. Gu Beihuai didn't have the habit of taking a nap, so why did he suddenly take a nap today?

Maybe I'm tired.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingyan gently placed the sword on the table, walked to the bed, and wanted to cover Gu Beihuai with the other half of the quilt.

Then, before he got close, he heard Gu Beihuai's voice, as cold as the north wind.

"go out."

Shen Qingyan paused, feeling a little at a loss.

But at this moment, she suddenly realized that something was wrong with Gu Beihuai.

It was a hot summer, but the quilt that Gu Beihuai was covering himself with was very thick, and his voice was a little hoarse, as if he was trying hard to restrain something.

"My lord, are you okay?"

Gu Beihuai spat out one word coldly, "Get lost."

He didn't want Shen Qingyan to see him suffering from the poison.

What he said made Shen Qingyan even more worried.

She ignored Gu Beihuai's indifference and walked quickly forward. She saw that his face was as pale as paper, his whole body seemed to have been washed with cold water, he was emitting cold air and trembling slightly.

"Prince!" Shen Qingyan called out anxiously, her face full of anxiety, "What's wrong with you?"

"I'll call the doctor right away!"

However, before he took a step, he felt dizzy and fell heavily on the bed. Then Gu Beihuai's cold body covered him.

"Shen Qingyan, are you satisfied seeing this king's embarrassed appearance?"

Shen Qingyan's heart trembled slightly, and when she saw his hair on his forehead wet with cold sweat, her brows were full of heartache.

"Your Majesty, we are husband and wife. Your body is just like my body. I am not satisfied or dissatisfied, I am only worried and distressed."

Shen Qingyan tried hard to get her body closer to Gu Beihuai and warm him with her body temperature.

"My Lord, I don't know what's wrong with you, but if you're cold, I'll use my body to warm you."

Gu Beihuai's pupils shrank slightly, and as he felt the soft body in his arms, his cold and hard heart gradually softened.

She didn't dislike herself, but was worried about herself.

"Shen Qingyan, it's not too late for you to regret now."

"I don't regret it." Shen Qingyan hugged his neck tightly. Even though she was shivering from the cold, she still said firmly, "Husband and wife are one. Your Highness is cold and I am hot. We can just neutralize each other."

Gu Beihuai looked at the little princess who was holding on even though her lips were shaking from the cold, and hardened his heart to push her away.

"This king does not need your neutralization."

"No, you need it." Shen Qingyan pounced on him again and hugged him with her hands and feet.
