The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?

Song Xiwan's heart trembled slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at him.

Looking closely, one could see that Xie Chengqian had lost some weight, and his already three-dimensional face had become even colder and harder, with a solemn and cold aura surrounding him.

Just like when Xie Chengqian returned triumphantly in his previous life.

Song Xiwan's heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to be calm and looked away.

Master Du didn't notice the atmosphere between the two of them. He greeted Xie Chengqian with a smile, "I heard that the prince was out on business. It's a coincidence that you're back."

Xie Chengqian glanced at the quiet person beside him and replied calmly, "Yes, I was traveling all night because I was worried about someone. I just felt it."

Mr. Du was confused.

Wha, what?

Who is the prince, who has never been interested in women, thinking about?

Song Xiwan's pupils tightened and he almost couldn't keep his calm expression. How could he say these in front of Master Du!

The crowd around hasn't dispersed yet!

Song Xiwan glanced over and saw that everyone was stunned.

Master Du was the quickest to come to his senses. He nodded and said, "Your Highness is indeed a filial and righteous man. Even when he is away from home, he is still concerned about the Emperor."

Xie Chengqian's expression froze.

Song Xiwan couldn't suppress the smile and curled up the corners of her mouth slightly.

Xie Chengqian's eyes flashed with helpless fondness, and then he said to Master Du: "Master, please take the palace carriage immediately. I still need to ask Miss Song some questions, so I will personally escort her to the palace."

Master Du thought he was asking about the imperial examination, so he agreed and left.

Before Song Xiwan could react, he was invited to get on Xie Chengqian's carriage, while he was still riding a horse.

The car just passed the noisy street.

Xie Chengqian then stepped into the carriage, bringing with him his usual cool woody fragrance, which made Song Xiwan's breathing slow down.

The carriage was extremely dark, and sometimes light would come in through the gaps in the curtains, falling right on his stern face, and his pair of dark eyes actually shone with light.

Song Xiwan's breathing was slightly stagnant.

She even felt like she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

It's only been over half a month since we last met, but the longing for you seems to be so overwhelming that it's about to overwhelm my heart.

"Xiwan."

Xie Chengqian took her face in his eyes, and his voice when he called out to her was no longer as cold and intimidating as before.

It is hoarse and very seductive.

Song Xiwan was becoming increasingly unable to resist. She forced herself to ignore her pounding heart and asked in a tight voice, "What are you doing?"

Xie Chengqian's tall figure moved forward and easily trapped her inside.

Song Xiwan looked up in panic.

His warm breath fell more clearly on her cheek, tickling her.

Xie Chengqian asked, "Did you receive my letter?"

Song Xiwan rolled his throat lightly and made a "hmm" sound.

Xie Chengqian stared at her intently and asked, "Do you miss me?"

This was not the first time Xie Chengqian asked this kind of question, but Song Xiwan still found it difficult to respond calmly.

Want to?

Of course I did.

Especially when it was late at night and everyone was asleep, the house was shrouded in a depressing and heavy atmosphere. She would toss and turn alone and wonder what Xie Chengqian was doing.

Song Xiwandao wasn't sure whether she had fallen in love with Xie Chengqian again, but she was sure that she really missed him.

But the answer is hard to say.

Xie Chengqian was inexplicably persistent. He reached out and lifted her chin, forcing the two of them to look at each other.

"Do you want to?"

Song Xiwan looked straight into his deep yet extremely determined eyes. Her mind seemed to be out of control for a moment and she nodded slightly.

Xie Chengqian was stunned.

He originally wanted to tease her, but he didn't expect to get the answer he wanted.

Song Xiwan realized belatedly what she had done and quickly dodged his hand, her words barely comprehensible.

"You went out to find the people who killed me, and then wrote to me, how could I not think... Ugh!"

Xie Chengqian couldn't help himself and bent down to kiss her red lips.

Gentle and affectionate.

Song Xiwan's momentary fright was soothed away, and she allowed Xie Chengqian to be as unbridled as he wanted.

A smile gradually spread in Xie Chengqian's eyes, and he poured all his longing for Song Xiwan into this kiss, so much so that Song Xiwan's breathing became rapid afterwards.

The two separated.

Song Xiwan stared at him with a blush on her face, and then she found that he had already held her in his arms without her knowing when!

She sat on Xie Chengqian's rock-hard thigh, her mind blank.

Finished!

How could she be such a lustful person?

Xie Chengqian rested his chin on her thin shoulder, raised his forbearing eyes and looked straight at her, as if he was still unsatisfied.

Song Xiwan couldn't stand the look and quickly tried to break free, "Your Highness, please respect yourself!"

However, Fu Yaoting held her waist tightly with only one arm, and used the other hand to tidy up her messy hair, with a smile on his lips.

"Xiwan, isn't it too immoral to want to run away after kissing?"

Song Xiwan widened her eyes.

Look what this is saying?!

But she still wanted to argue, "You wanted to kiss me, what does it have to do with me?"

Xie Chengqian raised his eyebrows and explained seriously, "You kissed me too, just now..."

Song Xiwan quickly reached out to cover his mouth, really afraid that he would say something shocking.

Xie Chengqian did not struggle, but just looked at her with his exposed eyes, his eyes showing a rare pure sincerity.

Song Xiwan felt helpless.

It blocked the bottom, but failed to block the top.

"Ahem... Your Majesty, we are almost at the palace gate."

A guard's warning voice came from outside the carriage.

Song Xiwan was completely sober now, feeling even more ashamed. She looked at Xie Chengqian with displeasure and suddenly pushed him away.

Xie Chengqian blinked guiltily and pulled the person back to coax him, "They didn't hear it."

Song Xiwan glanced at him unhappily.

What if she is a fool?

Xie Chengqian also suggested, "Why don't you ask?"

Song Xiwan couldn't afford to lose face, so she decisively dropped the topic, "I'm about to enter the palace. This imperial examination involves a wide range of people. I'm afraid I won't be able to clear my name if they investigate."

"They deserve it."

A chill flashed across Xie Chengqian's eyes.

Someone who bullied him while he was away?

Song Xiwan glanced at Xie Chengqian and casually mentioned, "In this case, what will happen to the Su family? Su Xunyao is still in prison at the Dali Temple."

Can he really be so cruel as to ignore Su Xunyao?

Xie Chengqian frowned, wondering how much Prime Minister Su was involved in this.

Song Xiwan thought he was hesitating, and with a chill in her heart, she broke free from his embrace, saying in a cold and hard tone, "No matter what the prince does, I will do my best to protect Master Du."

Xie Chengqian was stunned, not understanding why she suddenly turned against him.

Until a flash of inspiration came to his mind.

Xie Chengqian couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Are you jealous?"

Seeing his cheerful smile, Song Xiwan suddenly became furious and replied stiffly, "No."

After saying that, she got off the carriage.

Xie Chengqian knew that she was really angry, so he quickly caught up with her and tried to coax her.

There were many people standing in front of Naihe Palace.

He whispered, "I will definitely be on your side, don't worry."

Song Xiwan turned his head away and said nothing.

In fact, she was not entirely angry with Xie Chengqian, she was also competing with herself. Why did she care so much about Su Xunyao's position in Xie Chengqian's heart?

What’s the difference between this and the previous life?

"Xiwan."

Xie Chengqian wanted to hold her hand and explain further, but Song Xiwan angrily threw her sleeves.

The result was a slap in the face to Xie Chengqian!
