After being reborn, I hugged the villainous boss tightly.

"Impossible!" Ye Fan refused without even thinking.

Fu Yizhou looked at her intently: "If that's impossible, then Miao Xingren will have no choice but to stay there obediently until the imperial court reaches an agreement with the barbarians and releases him!"

Ye Fan glared at him with slightly red eyes: "Fu Yizhou, as the crown prince, what woman can't you have? Why are you holding me back!"

"Our family of three is living a good life, why do you have to break us up!"

Fu Yizhou looked down at the furious woman and curled his lips into a smile: "Because you are the one begging me now, you must do as I wish!"

"Then I'll tell you, that's absolutely impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yizhou was not angry.

"That's not necessarily true. Think it through before you tell me!"

After saying that, he looked deeply at her stubborn little face, then turned and left.

"..."

Ye Fan bit her lip and glared fiercely at the man's departing figure.

Ye Fan was worried about Miao Xingren. She knew that Fu Yizhou liked Miao Miao and would take good care of her, so she decided to leave Miao Xingren behind and go to bring her back herself.

At night, she pulled Miaomiao close and gently instructed, "You stay here and wait for your mother. I'll try to bring your father back, okay?"

Miao Miao frowned unhappily.

"Why didn't Mother take Miaomiao with her!"

Ye Fan stroked her fluffy head and comforted her softly, "There will be many dangers on this trip. I'm worried that I won't be able to take care of you. You stay here and wait for Daddy to come back. We'll come and pick you up, okay?"

Although Miaomiao was angry, she understood her mother's intention. She pouted and opened her arms to hug her.

"Then Mother must come back to pick me up. Miaomiao will be a good girl here and wait for you!"

Looking at her daughter's obedient and well-behaved appearance, Ye Fan suddenly felt like crying, and she tightened her grip on her daughter's hand.

Miao Miao was exceptionally well-behaved today, not crying or fussing even after being coaxed to sleep. Seeing her sleeping soundly, Ye Fan bent down and kissed her delicate face before getting up and leaving.

Knowing that Fu Yizhou would definitely stop him from going out, Ye Fan planned to sneak over the wall to escape.

Unexpectedly, she used all her strength to barely climb to the top of the wall. Looking down at the ground nearly two meters below, she was instantly terrified and her palms started sweating.

Thinking that Miao Xingren was still waiting for her, she gritted her teeth and jumped down.

"..."

Unexpectedly, the expected pain did not come; instead, I fell into a strange embrace!

"Ye Fan, do you want to break your leg?" The man frowned, his tone full of anger.

Ye Fan opened his eyes and saw Fu Yizhou's angry gaze.

Upon seeing him, she was immediately filled with anger, her eyes welling up with tears.

"Fu Yizhou, if you hadn't stopped me from going out, would I have chosen to climb the wall? If I broke my leg, it would be your fault!"

Seeing the woman in his arms with red eyes, Fu Yizhou's anger was somehow extinguished, and he held her tightly.

"Weren't you going to find Miao Xingren? If you dare to shed a single tear now, I won't help you!"

Ye Fan knew that it would be difficult to rescue Miao Xingren on his own. Hearing this, he immediately stopped the tears that were about to fall, his eyes filled with tears, stubbornly refusing to cry.

Seeing that she was so sensible, Fu Yizhou's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile as he bent down and put the woman down.

"When are we leaving?" Ye Fan asked hurriedly as soon as his feet touched the ground.

"When do you want it?"

"Now!"

Seeing how much she cared about Miao Xingren, Fu Yizhou felt uneasy and suppressed his smile.

"I expect a reward for what I do!"

"...What!" Ye Fan took a few steps back.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished asking the question, Fu Yizhou leaned down and quickly placed a kiss on her cheek.

"Since you're unwilling to have a child for me, a kiss is certainly possible!" After the kiss, he raised an eyebrow smugly and said in a roguish tone.

Ye Fan's eyes widened as he was kissed. He was very angry, but he dared not provoke him any further, fearing that he would be taken back with a single order.

"Can we set off now?"

Hearing the patience in her tone, Fu Yizhou suddenly felt much better.

"Let's go! I've prepared everything!"

Ye Fan: "..."

Inside the Prince Duan's residence.

Wang Lingling never imagined that she, a princess, would be marrying a man older than her father.

"I won't marry him! I want to see my brother, the Crown Prince! If he finds out you're forcing me to marry, he'll kill all of you bad people!"

She shouted arrogantly at the servants who came to change into her wedding dress.

"Princess, please change your clothes quickly, or the Emperor will blame us if we are late!"

Seeing Wang Lingling's antics, the old nanny coldly reminded her.

"Do you know who I am? How dare you speak to me like that? Once I become empress, you will all die!"

Wang Lingling hadn't grasped her situation and continued to shout defiantly.

The old woman, no longer wanting to listen to her ravings, reached out and knocked her unconscious, then threw her onto the bed. Only then did the room quiet down.

Upon seeing this, the maids hurriedly went forward to change her clothes and then helped her into the bridal sedan chair waiting at the back door.

When the servants in the Prince's mansion saw this, they lowered their heads and dared not step forward to stop it.

After all, no one dares to offend His Highness the Crown Prince!

……

Fu Yizhou's claim of being prepared turned out to be just a horse; there was nothing else.

Ye Fan was ashamed. Had this precious crown prince never traveled far before? He didn't even bring any travel expenses.

"what happened?"

Seeing that she didn't move, Fu Yizhou pulled on the reins.

"Fu Yizhou, aren't you going to bring any men or travel expenses?"

Fu Yizhou glanced at her indifferently.

"We're going to rescue people. The relationship between the barbarians and the imperial court is strained right now, and it would be easy to be discovered if there are too many of us!"

"As for travel expenses, I have brought enough; I don't need much more!"

Ye Fan looked at him with a mixture of belief and doubt, then at the horse he was leading.

Why is there only one horse?

Fu Yizhou's face stiffened, and he looked at Ye Fan with some embarrassment.

"I cannot ride a horse!"

"..."

Ye Fan almost choked on her own saliva. She stared at him with wide eyes and looked him over suspiciously.

Ye Fan didn't quite believe that Fu Yizhou, as the crown prince of the Great Zhao Dynasty, couldn't ride a horse.

But thinking about it, every day Miao Xingren stayed there meant more danger, so Ye Fan didn't press the matter further and mounted his horse.

"Come up!" She reached out her hand to Fu Yizhou.

Unbeknownst to Ye Fan, Fu Yizhou secretly curved a smile at the corner of his mouth after mounting his horse.

With the principle of not falling, he reached out and embraced Ye Fan's slender waist. Inhaling the fragrance emanating from her body, he felt a warmth in his lower abdomen, as if something was quietly spreading in his heart.
