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

Song Xiwan choked.

This kind of thing that requires guarantee without knowing the cause and effect sounds unreliable.

But Song Xiwan really wanted to know, so she nodded reluctantly.

Xie Chengqian raised his head, stared at her with a stern face, and coughed lightly.

"I thought you liked Yan Wushuang, so I allowed him to come and go freely in the palace. I also asked him to teach you kung fu."

"what?"

Song Xiwan was shocked.

Xie Chengqian changed the subject and said, "But I regretted it not long after. It's just that I couldn't stop it anymore because you were so happy."

That smile was something Xie Chengqian had never seen before.

He was mad with jealousy!

So much so that when Yan Wushuang came to the palace to teach Song Xiwan martial arts later, Xie Chengqian chose to go out, thinking out of sight, out of mind.

However, Xie Chengqian's heart was hard to control. He always wanted to know about her and whether she really liked Yan Wushuang that much.

The more he tried, the less the answer he wanted.

Song Xiwan was completely stunned and stood there, unable to believe what she heard.

Was this something Xie Chengqian made up on the spur of the moment?

But when she looked up, she met Xie Chengqian's very sincere eyes, and her heartbeat unconsciously quickened. She didn't know how to respond.

So, Xie Chengqian cared about her so much in his previous life?

impossible!

Xie Chengqian continued to talk to himself: "Xi Wan, can't you really stay away from him?"

Song Xiwan's brain felt numb again.

It was indeed Xie Chengqian's tone that was somewhat pleading, a bit like... acting like a spoiled child?

Song Xiwan felt a burning sensation on her cheeks and she had to find a way to slow down the heat. At this moment, the carriage arrived in front of the palace.

Xie Chengqian looked at her steadily, waiting for a reply.

Song Xiwan was in great confusion.

They were clearly still arguing about this matter just now, how come she was asked to make a decision in the blink of an eye?

"No."

Yan Wushuang is a very important friend to her.

Xie Chengqian's face suddenly darkened.

He didn't want that answer.

Song Xiwan caught a glimpse of loneliness in his cold eyes, and the guilt in her heart emerged again. She wanted to explain.

Xie Chengqian brought the person directly into the palace.

All the way to his yard.

Song Xiwan's heart beat faster and faster, and she swallowed involuntarily, hoping that Xie Chengqian could calm down.

"Your Majesty, I have something to do at home..."

"You've used that excuse several times."

Xie Chengqian interrupted calmly.

He didn't sound angry, but Song Xiwan knew that beneath this calmness there was a rage brewing, ready to explode.

"boom--"

Another door was pushed open by Xie Chengqian!

Song Xiwan felt sympathy for the door for a moment, thinking that they had suffered a lot today, and it just happened that Xie Chengqian was in the worst mood.

But soon she felt that she was in a dangerous situation, and Xie Chengqian's eyes were extremely cold.

Xie Chengqian caught the guilty look on that porcelain-white face, and the nameless anger in his heart became more and more difficult to suppress.

She had clearly tortured him so much yesterday, so how could she worry about other men today?

"Your Majesty?"

Song Xiwan called out tentatively.

Why did she inexplicably see accusations and grievances in Xie Chengqian's eyes?

Xie Chengqian approached step by step, and the restraint in his pupils became more and more obvious. The aura all over his body made Song Xiwan involuntarily take two steps back.

Until she was against the door.

Xie Chengqian placed one hand on her ear and asked again in a hoarse voice, "Really?"

Song Xiwan nodded cautiously.

What he got was Xie Chengqian's calm voice: "Okay."

Song Xiwan was completely bewildered. Just as she was about to ask, she was given a predatory kiss, with her jaw held in place by his fingertips.

Although the force was not strong, Song Xiwan couldn't break free.

"Well!"

Song Xiwan struggled in dissatisfaction and even bit him.

Xie Chengqian finally loosened his distance, staring coldly at her angry face, and said in a hoarse voice, "If you can't do that, then why do you still allow me to be frivolous?"

Song Xiwan's eyes widened.

Why does he talk as if he has suffered a great injustice?

But she found it difficult to refute what happened yesterday.

Xie Chengqian's eyes darkened and he kissed her again, this time more fiercely.

Song Xiwan couldn't hold on at all. When she came to her senses, her back had already touched the soft bed board, which made her even more panicked.

"Thank you, Chengqian!"

"It's no use calling me husband."

Xie Chengqian was really annoyed.

Why?

Song Xiwan looked at this rogue man in shock. Was this really the Xie Chengqian she knew?

She gritted her teeth and said, "Is this how you force me?"

Xie Chengqian's eyes were dark, and he spoke hoarsely for himself, "Xi Wan, have you forgotten? Yesterday, you treated me the same way."

"nonsense!"

Song Xiwan refused to admit it and argued back, "Don't think I don't remember anything. It was obviously you who kissed me first."

Xie Chengqian's expression froze, but he didn't feel guilty, he lowered his head and kissed her.

Song Xiwan was struggling at first, but later she simply didn't bother to pay attention to him and let him kiss her to his heart's content.

But, why is he like that somewhere...

Song Xiwan's face turned red like a cooked shrimp, and she said coldly to hide her panic, "You clearly said you wouldn't push me away again, what are you doing now?"

Xie Chengqian felt as if he was poured with a basin of cold water from head to toe, and suddenly became a little more sober.

He lowered his eyes and looked at Xi Wan, with a complex and deep look in his eyes.

For a moment, he felt a little ridiculous. Xie Chengqian never knew that one day he would become so unconfident.

Finally, Xie Chengqian buried his face in the crook of Song Xiwan's neck.

The two were silent.

Song Xiwan felt the coldness emanating from him. It would be a lie to say that her mind was unwavering. She couldn't understand why Xie Chengqian was so uneasy.

She pursed her lips, wanting to say something, but Xie Chengqian had already stood up and returned to his cold expression.

"I'll have someone take you back."

Leaving these words, he left.

Song Xiwan sat blankly on the edge of the bed, feeling depressed. She wanted to find Xie Chengqian and talk things out, but she didn't even know how to start.

That's it.

Song Xiwan felt that everyone needed to calm down, so she went straight back to the Song Mansion.

From that day on, no more letters came from the palace.

Song Xiwan's heart sank. Did what she said that day make Xie Chengqian want to give up?

She knew that this was fine, but she always felt annoyed. It was obviously him who had to tease her in this life, so what was it now?

"Girl, it's not good!"

Qiu Zhu ran in hurriedly from outside with an anxious look on his face.

Song Xiwan asked in a muffled voice, "What big thing happened again?"

Qiu Zhu took two breaths before saying, "Just now I heard people outside say that Su Xunyao was acquitted."

Song Xiwan suddenly looked up, frowning.

"How could he be acquitted?"

Qiu Zhu shook her head. "I don't know either. I came back to tell the young lady as soon as I received the news. The master hasn't even entered the palace to see the emperor yet."

Logically speaking, with so many things happening in the Su family, even if Su Xunyao could come out, it wouldn't be so soon. So, did the emperor give in?
