Chu Shiqing slammed the table, trying to use his brother's authority to suppress Nan Chuzheng.

In the past, Nan Chuzheng was very afraid of Chu Shiqing getting angry.

As long as he got angry, Nan Chuzheng would purse her lips and remain silent no matter how much injustice she had suffered.

Now, Chu Shiqing felt that it should be the same as before.

Nan Chuzheng turned around and pointed at the fruits on the table and said,

"Isn't it? You're carrying a basket of fruits like this today. Are you here to make people laugh?"

"If not, what does Prince Chu want to do? Humiliate me with fruits again and say that I am not worthy of good things?"

Chu Shiqing had said this many times in his previous life.

Every time he disappointed Nan Chuzheng, she no longer wanted to talk to him anymore.

Chu Shiqing would casually bring a basket of fruits and give it to her, symbolizing his reconciliation with Nan Chuzheng.

How many taels of silver is a basket of fruits worth?

There are toys everywhere in the Chu family farm.

At first, Nan Chuzheng was touched by this, thinking that the gift was small but the sentiment was great, and she didn't need to care what her brother Chu Shiqing gave her.

But it was because Chu Shiqing was willing to reconcile with her.

But as time went on, Chu Shiqing disappointed Nan Chuzheng more and more times.

Every time Chu Shiqing gave Nan Chuzheng some fruits and vegetables, they gradually became less valuable.

It was not until later that Nan Chuzheng discovered that every time Chu Shiqing took out something to coax Chu Jingyue, it was always some good stuff.

Chu Shiqing is not incapable of taking out an exquisite pearl hairpin or precious jewelry.

Instead, he was willing to spend time and effort to make Chu Jingyue happy.

As for Nan Chuzheng, Chu Shiqing thought that she was just a cheap sister who could be coaxed back by giving her a sweet date.

It seemed that Nan Chuzheng had hit the nail on the head, and Chu Shiqing's face was filled with obvious anger and embarrassment.

"Nan Chuzheng! How can you talk like that?"

"I'm willing to come and negotiate peace with you. I'm giving you this way out, so just take it."

"If you continue to make a fuss, you might as well overdo it."

He threatened Nan Chuzheng and told her that she was just pretending.

But Nan Chuzheng sneered. She was using this attitude to mock Chu Shiqing's naive ideas.

"No means no. How many times do I have to tell you before you understand? You're hard of hearing at such a young age. It's really pitiful."

Nan Chuzheng mocked Chu Shiqing and didn't even touch the basket of fruits on the table.

Chu Shiqing was completely furious.

He then stood up and reached out to pull Nan Chuzheng.

Nan Chuzheng is not a pushover either. She has disliked Chu Shiqing for a long time.

As Chu Shiqing stretched out his hand, Nan Chuzheng held a needle between her fingers and stabbed it into Chu Shiqing's hand.

Chu Shiqing didn't feel anything, but his arm, which was not very flexible to begin with, became numb in an instant.

He didn't even see clearly what Nan Chuzheng did to him.

"Homeowner?"

When she was putting away the needle, Nan Chuzheng suddenly saw the man in blue standing at the door of the restaurant.

Nan Chenrao was not wearing a mask today.

He stood casually and dignifiedly on the bustling street.

She was wearing a dark blue dress with wide sleeves, which looked neither decorative nor luxurious.

It looks like an ordinary piece of clothing, but the collar and cuffs are embroidered with exquisite patterns, adding an inconspicuous gorgeousness and sophistication.

Nan Chenrao has an extremely handsome face, with delicate and three-dimensional features like sculptures.

Seeing Nan Chuzheng coming out of the restaurant, his sword-like eyebrows raised slightly, revealing a touch of heroism, and his eyes were as bright as stars, deep and fiery.

As if he could understand everything.

Under his high nose bridge, Nanchen pursed his thin lips, his skin was as white as jade, outlining a smile.

Chu Shiqing, who followed Nan Chuzheng out, couldn't help but look at Nan Chenrao twice more.

Such a handsome young man is Nan Chuzheng's adopted brother?

Apart from his pale face, which looked sickly, Chu Shiqing could not find any fault with Nan Chenrao.

Nan Chuzheng had already flown in front of Nan Chenrao like a light bird.

She looked up at Nan Chenrao worriedly.

"How did you..."

In broad daylight, Nan Chenrao rarely goes out without a mask.

He rarely used his other identity, the eldest son of the Nan family, a scholar from a family of minor officials.

Because this identity is completely different from his identity as the head of Yama Division.

Therefore, no one would ever associate the sickly noble young man in front of them with the feared Lord of Yama.

Nan Chenrao just glanced at Chu Shiqing, reached out and took Nan Chuzheng's hand, looking at her intently.

"I heard you were out, so I came to look for you."

Nan Chenrao was worried that what happened last night would make Zheng'er think of distancing herself from him again.

Especially when I heard from Yanluo Sizhong that Nan Chuzheng and Chu Shiqing met in a restaurant.

So he came to find her in a hurry.

Wanting to determine her attitude towards him.

If he saw any hesitation or disgust on her face, he would even follow Chu Shiqing back to the Chu family.

Nan Chenrao will go crazy.

But fortunately, Nan Chenrao only saw Nan Chuzheng's worry about him on her face.

"Let's not talk about it here."

Nan Chuzheng knew that Nan Chenrao had a special identity.

He doesn't like to show his face in public.

This would make Nan Chenrao feel very insecure.

For Nan Chenrao, this feeling was probably similar to that of a girl walking naked on the street, which was uncomfortable and dangerous.

She hurriedly grabbed Nan Chenrao's wrist and went into a deserted, secluded alley.

As she walked, the marks on her neck that had been deliberately covered up were revealed.

Nan Chenrao's eyes gradually became deep and crazy.

But unfortunately, Chu Shiqing caught up with him.

"Brother Nan, please stay."

Chu Shiqing covered his numb arm, strode after Nan Chenrao and Nan Chuzheng, and entered the alley together.

Looking at Nan Chenrao turning around, there was a sickly look on his cold and handsome face.

Chu Shiqing said,

"My father has always wanted to meet Brother Nan, and also wanted to thank the Nan family in person for taking care of my sister."

"Sister?"

Nan Chenrao chewed on this word, with a strange look in his eyes.

"No need for that. Zheng'er is a member of the Nan family in life and a ghost of the Nan family in death. It is the Nan family's responsibility to take care of Zheng'er."

There is nothing to thank the Nan family for.

Instead, the Nan family should thank the Chu family for giving birth to a good girl like Zheng'er to Nan Chenrao.

It’s just that the Chu family didn’t treat Nan Chuzheng well after her return.

The gift that the Nan family was about to give to the Chu family was angrily suspended by Nan Chenrao.

The Chu family probably doesn't want to know what kind of gift the Nan family will give to the Chu family.

After all, for the Chu family, a Crown Princess is enough.

Even if more power and wealth were given to the Chu family, they would not deserve it.

Chu Shiqing was stunned and didn't understand what Nan Chenrao meant.

He felt a little strange and said,

"Brother Nan, you are wrong. Chu Zheng has already returned to the Chu family. She should be a member of the Chu family."

Nan Chuzheng's heart was pounding.

She understood that Nan Chenrao wanted to keep her in the Nan family for life.

The head of the family is getting more and more crazy.

Nan Chenrao raised his hand and without saying anything, he was about to shatter Chu Shiqing's heart with a palm.

Dare to snatch the zheng from him?!

He had long disliked Chu Shiqing.

"Master, don't dirty your hands."

Nan Chuzheng hugged Nan Chenrao's arm, took a step ahead of Nan Chenrao, and struck Chu Shiqing in the heart with a palm.

The sickly nobleman cannot take off his vest.

She was afraid that Nan Chenrao would reveal that he had martial arts skills.

Chu Shiqing took two steps back with a pale face and bumped into a wall behind him.

If he hadn't seen clearly just now, it was Nan Chuzheng who made his entire arm numb.

This time, Chu Shiqing saw it clearly.

Nan Chuzheng beat him!

Nan Chuzheng actually hit him?

Why did she dare to hit him?

Chu Shiqing couldn't believe it and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Nan Chuzheng doesn't have as much drama in her heart as Chu Shiqing.

She dragged Nanchen Rao deeper into the alley.

"Master, let's ignore him and not argue with him."

Chu Shiqing saw Nan Chuzheng and Nan Chenrao arguing with each other, and he said angrily:

"Nan Chuzheng! Do you still have any sense of shame? How can you be so taunting with a man in broad daylight?"

"Shut up."

Nan Chuzheng turned around, her eyes full of coldness.

"I follow you everywhere, why are you so annoying?"

Nan Chenrao looked down at Nan Chuzheng and asked, "How did he offend you?"

There was a distinct coldness in the tone.

Nan Chuzheng turned her back to Chu Shiqing and said in a sarcastic tone,

"He came up to me with a basket of junk and said he was giving me a way out."

She and Nan Chenrao were talking in low voices, without even looking back at Chu Shiqing.
