Chapter 69 Undercurrents among the Three
Shi Nuanyu understood what he meant and responded with a smile.

"Yes, I will protect A Ling."

After all, he is the younger brother I adopted.

Shi Nuanyu grunted and buried her head as she diligently supported Shan Baiyu. As soon as they stepped out of the Dali Temple gate, the two men beside her stopped.

"Why don't you leave?"

Just as I was curious, a voice as gentle as spring breeze came into my ears.

"Your Highness."

Qinghe had a gentle smile on his face as he looked at the three people who were helping him walk. His white clothes sparkled in the afterglow of the setting sun.

He stood tall and slender beside the road, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Shi Nuanyu blinked and stared at him, her gaze involuntarily falling on the man's thin lips. She still remembered the touch of that day.

Suddenly, alarm bells rang in her heart, and she firmly pulled herself away from the beauty.

Why did Shi Nuanyu feel that he was unhappy even though he was clearly smiling? She really couldn't understand the man's temperament.

Her eyes curved into crescents and she smiled sweetly at him.

"Qinghe, are you here to pick us up?"

Qinghe walked towards him slowly and gently removed the arm from her shoulder.

Shan Baiyu's body swayed, Shi Nuanyu subconsciously went to support him, and Qinghe took her place.

"The seven-day deadline is approaching, and the court is busy with many matters. Your Highness must not neglect them."

Shi Nuanyu was confused by his actions.

She boldly guessed: Was this person here to arrest her specifically for schoolwork?
You also have to be dedicated.

The carriage moved slowly on the street, the sound of wheels intersecting with the noisy clamor. The interior of the carriage was simple and elegant, and spacious enough to easily seat five or six people.

In the car, Nuanyu sat in the main seat and tried hard to reduce her presence. Qinghe sat on her right and used a handkerchief to help her wipe her hands.

Hua Lingyan sat on the left and stared at her without blinking.

The injured Shan Baiyu leaned alone on the side, his eyes falling on her intentionally or unintentionally.

What's the situation now?
Why aren't they talking?
Shi Nuanyu carefully looked left and right with her peripheral vision, and when she saw the injuries on Shan Baiyu's face, she spoke tentatively.

"Qinghe, the young general is seriously injured. Should we find a clinic to see him?"

Qinghe put down her right hand and motioned for her to hand over the other hand.

"Left hand."

Shi Nuanyu quickly stretched out her left hand and watched him wipe her hands clean, even leaving no space between her fingers.

Are her hands dirty?

Qinghe has never been seen to have obsessive-compulsive disorder.

The carriage fell into an eerie silence again. Shi Nuanyu couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere, so she turned her head and met Hua Lingyan's eyes.

She winked at him mysteriously.

"A Ling, do you want to eat some dried fruit?"

Hua Lingyan nodded honestly, "I want to eat."

With her left hand freed, Shi Nuanyu giggled and stretched out her hands in front of the boy in a mysterious manner.

The boy didn't understand what was going on. After thinking for a moment, he obediently handed over his head.

"Your Highness wants to eat dried fruits. A Ling can go buy them."

The handsome young man stared at her innocently with his almond-shaped eyes, and Shi Nuanyu's heart was pounding.

So beautiful and cute.

She subconsciously pinched the boy's face.

When she met Hua Lingyan's puzzled gaze, she withdrew her hand guiltily and coughed twice in an attempt to cover up her guilt.

"A Ling, did you know you can eat dried fruits without buying them?"

She stretched out her hand under the boy's puzzled gaze.

"Look and see if there's nothing up there."

Hua Lingyan held her hand and looked through it, "No."

"That's right," Shi Nuanyu raised her eyebrows at him proudly, "Now is the moment to witness a miracle, A Ling, close your eyes."

The boy obediently closed his eyes, and Shi Nuan quickly took out two dried fruits from the small pouch on his waist.

Seeing the two of them playing and making funny faces, Qinghe couldn't help but chuckle.

Shi Nuanyu quickly raised her index finger to her lips, imitating the gesture of her lifetime. Shan Baiyu lowered his head to hide the smile on his lips.

"Dangdangdang," Shi Nuanyu clenched her fist and stretched it in front of the boy, "A Ling, open your eyes, guess which hand has something."

Hua Lingyan slowly opened her eyes and carefully observed the fist in front of her.

After some difficult choices, he made his choice.

"Right hand."

Shi Nuanyu spread out her hands and laughed without any hesitation.

"A Ling, you are so stupid. You don't even have two hands."

She pressed her hand into the boy's.

"Take a look."

Hua Lingyan held her hand tightly, "Your Highness, A Ling wants to eat some dried fruit."

"Here, eat it," Shi Nuanyu rubbed his furry head and personally picked up a dried fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.

"what about the taste?"

Hua Lingyan's eyes were stunned for a moment, and then she tasted it carefully, the sweet and sour taste lingering in her mouth.

"sweet."

Everything your highness feeds is sweet.

The intimate behavior of the two attracted the attention of the other two. Feeling their gaze, Shi Nuanyu took out a few more dried fruits from her purse and handed them out hesitantly.

"You guys want to eat too?"

Why are these three men acting so strangely since they got on the carriage?

Qinghe gracefully picked up a dried fruit from her hand and ate it. The sour feeling spread in his mouth, but he swallowed it without changing his expression.

"The dried fruits prepared by His Highness are very delicious."

Shan Baiyu waved his long arm and picked up one, but he didn't eat it and held it in his palm.

Strange, so strange.

Shi Nuanyu's gaze lingered on the three people suspiciously for a moment. She had tasted the dried fruit before and it was very sour and astringent. She used it to wake herself up when she was reading.

How could these two people taste sweetness? Is there something wrong with their taste buds?

She picked up a dried fruit and ate it doubtfully, but the sour taste made her taste buds numb.

Qinghe poured her a cup of tea, and she drank it down in big gulps to suppress the sourness in her mouth.

"Is there something wrong with your sense of taste?"

Or is it that the male protagonists have extraordinary endurance.

"Your humble sense of taste is intact, but I wonder how the Young General and Master Hua's tastes are."

Qing He hinted at something, his gentle eyes showing a hint of interest.

The weather outside was clear and the spring sun was warm, but Shi Nuanyu felt that the temperature of the carriage had dropped by more than one degree.

Based on her experience of reading storybooks in her previous life, could it be that these three people were plotting something behind her back?
Could it be that before she even started to conquer the male protagonists, they had already developed new murderous thoughts towards her?

No, I still have to pursue my career.

Shan Baiyu was reluctant to eat the dried fruits in his hand. Under Qinghe's gaze, he put the dried fruits on the tea table.

"No matter how good the dried fruit is, it's not my ambition."

Shi Nuanyu stared at Gan Guo and wondered secretly, could it be that he meant that he would not kill her because he had promised her before?

He is worthy of being the most upright male protagonist in the book, and he always values ​​his promises.

I guess I really don’t have to worry about Dan Baiyu killing me.

Hua Lingyan quietly grabbed the corner of the woman's skirt without saying a word and faced Qinghe's gaze.

There was an undercurrent between the three of them, but Shi Nuanyu was unaware of it and was still trying to figure out who had murderous intentions towards her.

Bang!

The carriage shook violently as it ran over the stones, and Shi Nuanyu's body fell uncontrollably towards Qinghe.

"Your Highness, be careful."

Qing He took her into his arms, and seeing the person patting her chest with lingering fear, the smile on his lips deepened.

"The young general has great ambitions. With such aspirations, he will surely achieve his wishes."
