Amidst the awkwardness, the medicine was finally applied.

Chu Xiaohuan saw that Qian Duoduo was still lying there motionless, so he gently covered her legs with the blanket.

Noticing Chu Xiaohuan's movement, Qian Duoduo immediately sat up, and the blanket slipped off her head.

She had just started to get up when Chu Xiaohuan pressed her back down.

"Lie still."

Qian Duoduo hesitated, wanting to put on her clothes.

Just as Chu Xiaohuan was about to speak, he heard a knock on the door.

He quickly covered Qian Duoduo with the blanket, but only Qian Duoduo's head was sticking out, her eyes still darting around.

She didn't understand why Chu Xiaohuan suddenly wrapped her up tightly in the blanket.

"General, the Fifth Prince has arrived."

The knocking stopped, and Qingzhu's voice came through.

Qingzhu looked at the Fifth Prince standing next to her, cold sweat pouring down her forehead.

He didn't know why the Fifth Prince insisted on seeing his wife today.

After a long silence, "Fifth Prince, the General is busy right now, perhaps..."

The Fifth Prince ignored Qingzhu and was about to raise his hand to knock on the door.

"Bam—"

The door was opened by Chu Xiaohuan, who looked coldly at the Fifth Prince and asked, "What do you want?"

The Fifth Prince snorted coldly. This guy was still the same as before, with a foul and stubborn temper.

Although both of them wore cold expressions, they had never lost contact over the years.

The Fifth Prince originally wanted to state his purpose directly, but looking at Chu Xiaohuan's expressionless face, an idea popped into his mind.

He pretended to glance past Chu Xiaohuan and looked into the room.

Chu Xiaohuan immediately noticed and slammed the door shut.

"Go to the study."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

She had only taken two steps when she remembered that the Fifth Prince was still thinking about his wife, so she turned back and pulled the Fifth Prince along with her.

He would never create an opportunity for two people.

Although the Fifth Prince is already married, given his status, a divorce is not impossible.

He had to be on guard. Putting aside the fact that he had kidnapped Qian Duoduo a few years ago, the way he was looking for Qian Duoduo today made him very unhappy.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

The Fifth Prince slowly examined his fingertips, his tone indifferent.

"I'm not here to find you."

These words stirred up a storm in Chu Xiaohuan's heart, and his veins bulged instantly.

His "good brother" was indeed eyeing his wife.

"She's not available right now."

Chu Xiaohuan touched his brow, suppressing his displeasure.

The Fifth Prince stepped forward with a sly grin, "I came because I knew she was having trouble."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiaohuan silently repeated in his heart: He is a prince, he is a prince, he is...

To hell with princes, he doesn't care. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stood up to the Empress back then.

He was about to explode when the Fifth Prince spoke up.

"An'an wants to see her."

The Fifth Prince was secretly pleased to see Chu Xiaohuan stop breathing immediately. After all these years, did he still not understand Xiaohuan's temper?

He can now control the speed down to the second.

"She doesn't know An'an, so she won't see her."

"Huh? She's An'an's savior, and besides, it's not like we don't know each other..."

The Fifth Prince shook his head. He wouldn't have come if An'an hadn't suddenly mentioned "finding that older sister" this morning.

I had coaxed him to take a nap, thinking he would forget about it when he woke up, but he ended up making an even bigger fuss.

Chu Xiaohuan clenched his fist silently, "You still dare to mention knowing me!"

The sound of clenched teeth made the Fifth Prince touch the tip of his nose, feeling somewhat guilty.

"If that person hadn't suddenly come back, maybe you and I would be..."

If he hadn't gotten Chu Xiaohuan drunk one time, he wouldn't have known about Qian Duoduo's two souls.

Chu Xiaohuan finally lost his patience and kicked the Fifth Prince out of the study.

"Don't let me see you again."

Qingzhu watched the Fifth Prince being driven out from outside the door and silently shook her head. It was the same thing again.

The Fifth Prince seems to enjoy provoking the General.

The Fifth Prince turned his head, snorted coldly, and left.

Since he couldn't see Qian Duoduo, he simply sent An'an over. Anyway, Chu Xiaohuan was all bark and no bite, and he wouldn't let An'an suffer any injustice.

He came to inform Chu Xiaohuan, intending to offer kind words of advice, but upon seeing Chu Xiaohuan's icy face, he couldn't help himself.
