Exile at the start? The princess is no ordinary woman.

He was very happy.

"Thank you, Nan Nan, my clothes were just in time to get dirty."

"Okay, then go change. I'll bring you some delicious food when I come back."

"it is good"

Jun Yanchen's heart, which had been cold all day, was easily stirred by Gu Nanzhi. He asked Cang Ling to bring hot water into the room, and then prepared to wash up and change into the clothes that Nannan had bought for him.

Xia He and the others unpacked everything they had bought, putting their clothes in their respective rooms and the food in the kitchen.

Those at home greeted Gu Nanzhi when she returned.

Even Granny Xu and He Xin'er bowed to Gu Nanzhi.

"princess"

Gu Nanzhi merely glanced at the two of them.

"Um"

Then he walked past the two of them toward his room.

He Xin'er watched her retreating figure, feeling extremely jealous. How could a village girl raised in a manor possess such beauty and figure...

So what if she's beautiful? She still grew up on a country estate. She doesn't believe the prince would ever be interested in her...

"Xin'er"

Granny Xu noticed the jealousy in her eyes and spoke up to remind her.

He Xin'er then came to her senses, suppressing the jealousy in her eyes.

"aunt"

After changing into the clothes his beloved had bought for him, Jun Yanchen left the room and immediately searched for Gu Nanzhi.

"Cang Ling, where is Madam?"

"Master, Madam has returned to her room."

Just as He Xin'er was about to step forward to take the gift from Jun Yanchen, she saw him walk quickly to Gu Nanzhi's door and lightly knock. He Xin'er could only seethe with resentment and clench her fingers tightly.

Hmph, how could a country bumpkin like her deserve such treatment from the prince...

"Enter"

A voice of approval came from inside the house, and Jun Yanchen pushed open the door and slowly walked to Gu Nanzhi.

"Nan Nan, is it pretty?"

This was the first time in Jun Yanchen's life that he had asked such a question. He felt a little awkward and nervous, but Nan Nan liked things that looked good, so he wanted her opinion.

Gu Nanzhi actually raised her eyes to scrutinize him with a serious expression. Broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs—his physique as a prince was impeccable; he was truly a walking clothes hanger. Coupled with his outstanding face, it was hard for him not to look good.

"nice"

With such a handsome man in front of you, it's hard not to do something, isn't it?

Gu Nanzhi beckoned to him.

"come over"

Jun Yanchen obediently took two more steps forward to face Gu Nanzhi, the two of them only inches apart.

"Nan Nan"

What's wrong with being a little bolder since it's my own business?

Gu Nanzhi raised her hand and grabbed the man's shirt, forcing him to lower his head. She then slightly tiptoed and tilted her head back to kiss him, all in one smooth motion.

Before Jun Yanchen could react to the forceful kiss, only feeling the soft, fragrant touch of her lips made it feel real.

Nan Nan kissed him first; Nan Nan loved him...

Turning the tables, Jun Yanchen wrapped his arm around Gu Nanzhi's slender waist, pulling her into his embrace. Gu Nanzhi, in turn, hooked one arm around the man's neck and placed the other on his waist, where she could clearly feel the powerful muscles even through his clothes.

She had seen the view beneath the clothes before, and even though the clothes were now in the way, the image of the naked woman had indeed entered Gu Nanzhi's mind.

Abs, V-line...

I'm so hungry...

Gu Nanzhi's hand seemed to be tracing the images in her mind, but this slight touch was almost too much for Jun Yanchen to handle.

The arms encircling her slender waist tightened their grip...

Kissing gradually became more than just a light touch.

Both seemed somewhat absorbed in the moment, until a cool breeze brought them back to their senses.

Their lips still held the other's scent, making them appear even more alluring and captivating.

"Nan Nan"

The voice becomes low and hoarse when the mouth opens.

Gu Nanzhi curled her lips into a smile, clearly quite satisfied with the man, but now was not the right time to do anything. She placed her hands on the man's chest.

"You didn't close the door,"

Since you see each other all the time, it's best to avoid such intimate matters to avoid embarrassment.

"And we should go out, we're hungry,"

Jun Yanchen chuckled softly, finding Nan Nan quite adorable.

"it is good"

He gave a low response, then, as if remembering something, Jun Yanchen added another sentence, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.

"Nan Nan, if anyone disrespects you, don't hesitate to teach them a lesson."

That fleeting emotion did not escape Gu Nanzhi's eyes; perhaps she was also upset that he hadn't concealed it from her.

She didn't need to think twice to know who they were talking about.

"It's alright, just don't mess with me. Keep your men in line, or I won't give you any face."

Jun Yanchen couldn't help but raise his hand and stroke her hair.

“Nan Nan, you don’t need to worry about other people’s feelings, including mine. They will be leaving with Huai Xu the day after tomorrow.”

This was Jun Yanchen's promise to her, allowing her to stay by his side without needing to be overly cautious; that wouldn't be her.

If that's really the case, it can only mean that Jun Yanchen himself was incompetent and couldn't protect his beloved.

"Yes, you can arrange your own people."

Jun Yanchen explained softly again.

"They are not my people. That Xu Mama used to be a palace maid by my mother's side. She protected me when I was young. As for the other one, I don't know her and I don't even know her name."

The simple explanation did indeed make Gu Nanzhi laugh.

Although she had only exchanged two glances with the two people outside since they arrived, she could sense the young woman's feelings for Jun Yanchen from those brief encounters, even though she didn't understand emotions very well.

But Jun Yanchen was so heartless as to say he didn't even know the person's name.

Tsk tsk tsk,

This must be so heartbreaking...

"Jun Yanchen, you're going to hurt people's feelings by saying that,"

"Nan Nan, you want me to uphold male virtues; I don't need to remember the names of others."

Gu Nanzhi still laughed out loud.

"Tsk tsk tsk, how cold-hearted! Hahaha, let's go, it's time to get out."

Gu Nanzhi then took the man's hand and walked towards the door. This man was cold and aloof, but she loved him—handsome, with a great physique, and sensible...

Upon leaving the room, Gu Nanzhi saw that Butler Li and Xia He were already preparing dinner in an orderly manner, so she didn't go in to join in.

Let her show off her skills again tomorrow.

Since waiting was still waiting, she wandered through the right-hand aisle to check on the family property.

The chickens, ducks, and geese have grown so much since we bought them! That's wonderful! Chicks, ducklings, and goslings, grow up quickly!

When I grow up, I'll eat you all.

Jun Yanchen, who was following beside her, couldn't help but chuckle as he listened to her mutterings. Only Nan Nan Hui could be so adorable.

Gu Nanzhi was also happy, but when she checked the sheep pen, she immediately noticed something was wrong. Two of the sheep were rolling on the ground and bleating softly.

She sensed something was wrong, so she pulled the door open, went inside, and crouched down to examine the area.

She can heal people, but she's never healed sheep.
