Lu Yaoyao was just about to close the window and go to sleep when a cold wind blew and a dark figure rushed in through the window.

Seeing who it was, Lu Yaoyao was startled. "Your Highness, why are you here? When did you learn to quietly walk through the window and into a woman's bedroom?"

This is really not like his character.

Xie Qingchen pulled out a box from his bosom and threw it into Lu Yaoyao's hand. "I don't need this thing. I should have said that I don't want Miss Lu to interfere with the matter of the poison in my body."

Okay, I won’t interfere. You deserve to die.

Lu Yaoyao stuffed the box into her arms and said angrily, "Okay, since Your Highness doesn't need it, then forget it. Just think of it as your servant meddling in other people's business!"

Xie Qingchen glanced at her coldly, and left without saying anything extra.

The next day, Gu Huai came to find Lu Yaoyao and told her that Xie Qingchen would leave Beijing the next day.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yaoyao was not surprised at all, as if she had known it for a long time.

Gu Huai was slightly surprised, "Did you know this a long time ago?"

"Yes, I was summoned to the palace by Concubine Shu yesterday. I happened to see the Crown Prince coming to pay his respects to Concubine Shu, so I know."

"Oh." A strange look flashed across Gu Huai's face, but he quickly returned to normal.

"Yaoyao, our wedding is in ten days. Are you nervous?"

He turned around and started talking about other topics.

"Don't be nervous!"

She knew it was fake, but she just felt a little guilty and sorry for Gu Huai.

She must have left that night and couldn't have waited until dawn.

This time, she was no longer able to devote her body and soul to the attack.

So there can be no wedding night.

"But I'm nervous."

"Why are you so nervous?" Lu Yaoyao laughed.

"I'm afraid this is just a dream, and I'll wake up before I can even dream of us living a happy married life."

"Fool." Lu Yaoyao didn't hear any hidden meaning.

She just thought he loved her too much.

"Yaoyao, promise me that you will stay by my side for a little longer, okay?" Gu Huai suddenly hugged her, his tone panicked and full of anxiety.

"Don't worry, I will always be with you. I'm just afraid that my beauty will fade and my love will fade, and you won't want to be with me all the time anymore."

Lu Yaoyao patted Gu Huai's back gently, trying to soothe his sudden uneasiness.

"No, I will never change my mind. If you break this oath, let me die on the battlefield."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Lu Yaoyao's heart trembled violently.

How could he make such a poisonous oath that was so close to him?

"So you believe me?" Gu Huai smiled again.

"Well, if you don't believe others, they will definitely believe you."

……

As night fell, Lu Yaoyao sat alone in front of the dressing table, looking at her beautiful face in the bronze mirror, but her heart was calm.

She took out the box that Xie Qingchen had thrown to her yesterday and opened it gently. Inside were three exquisite detoxification pills.

This is her treasure, which she made with great difficulty, but Xie Qingchen refused to take it.

Why on earth did he allow the poison to wreak havoc in his body and torture him?

She took out another jade pendant, which Xie Qingchen had paid for her that day.

She never took it with her and kept it all the time.

……

"Your Highness, please have a cup of lotus seed soup. It can relieve your internal heat." Su Yuan walked in holding a cup.

Xie Qingchen said coldly, "Who let you in? Didn't I tell you that no one is allowed to disturb me?"

Su Yuan looked over and found Xie Qingchen holding a magnolia hairpin and looking at it over and over again.

He has always treasured this hairpin very much.

It’s not the one she bought last time. This one should be very cheap. She thinks it might be a relic left by He Yaoyao.

Xie Qingchen was holding the relic and thinking of the person!

Isn't it ridiculous? The real person is right in front of him, but he doesn't recognize him, and the real person has no intention of recognizing him.

"Your Highness, I know I shouldn't disturb you, but I just came back and ran into Miss Lu. She asked me to return something to Your Highness."

Xie Qingchen's eyes deepened.

His eyes turned to Su Yuan.

Su Yuan slowly took out the jade pendant that Lu Yaoyao had given her and said, "Your Highness, please take a look." She presented it respectfully.

Xie Qingchen took the jade pendant, gently stroked the warm surface with his fingertips, and a complex and indistinguishable emotion flashed in his eyes.

He doesn't want Lu Yaoyao's medicine, so she doesn't want the jade pendant he bought with his money?

"Go out." Xie Qingchen's voice was cold, and no emotion could be heard.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Early in the morning, Lu Yaoyao was woken up by the maid, saying that Gu Huai was waiting outside. The prince was leaving for Dianjiang today and he wanted to see him off.

She really wanted to say, just go ahead, why drag me along?

But she didn't say that in the end. She just quickly washed up and followed the maid out of the house.

Gu Huai was dressed in a tight suit, looking very heroic. When he saw Lu Yaoyao coming out, a gentle light flashed in his eyes, "Yaoyao, are you ready? It's time to set off."

Lu Yaoyao nodded slightly and got into the carriage with him.

The carriage bumped along the way and arrived at the city gate.

At this time, Xie Qingchen was already riding on a horse, wearing a black suit, which made him look even more heroic.

He scanned the crowd, and when he saw Lu Yaoyao and Gu Huai standing side by side, his eyes dimmed slightly.

Lu Yaoyao also noticed Xie Qingchen's gaze, and her heart inexplicably tightened. She didn't know why Xie Qingchen looked at her like that.

But she quickly looked away and walked towards Xie Qingchen with Gu Huai.

"Your Highness, have a safe journey." Gu Huai bowed.

Xie Qingchen nodded slightly, "Well, thank you for your help, General Gu."

Lu Yaoyao also bowed slightly and said, "Take care, Your Highness."

Xie Qingchen glanced at her indifferently, as if he had no extra feelings towards her except that she was his subject and his good brother's fiancée. Then, he turned his horse around and led a group of people away slowly.

Lu Yaoyao looked at his back, feeling a little sad. She knew that after this departure, she might never see him again.

"Let's go too." After the team walked away, Gu Huai reached out and patted Lu Yaoyao on the shoulder and said.

"Ah."

The two of them were strolling on the street. Gu Huai noticed that Lu Yaoyao was not in a good mood and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, just got up too early and didn't sleep well."

"Then I'll take you back?"

"it is good."

Sometimes, people don't want to pretend, it's really tiring.

After returning home, Lu Yaoyao couldn't calm down for a long time.

She sat by the window, staring at the scenery outside in a daze.

At this time, the maid came in with a cup of tea, "Miss, please have some tea."

Lu Yaoyao took the teacup and took a sip, but found it tasteless.

She put down her teacup and asked, "How long until the wedding day?"

"Miss, there are still nine days."

Ninth day...

In the next few days, Lu Yaoyao was busy preparing for the wedding. She tried her best to keep herself busy and not think about those annoying things.

However, whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, she would still think of Xie Qingchen.

Before leaving, she couldn't even take one last look at him.

Finally, the wedding day arrived.

Lu Yaoyao was wearing a gorgeous wedding dress and a phoenix crown, sitting on the wedding bed waiting for Gu Huai's arrival.

She listened to the sound of firecrackers and laughter outside, but felt as if she was in another world.

When Gu Huai lifted her veil, she saw tenderness and joy in his eyes.

She forced herself to smile, trying to look happier.
