Concubine to conquer the world

Chapter 500

The air was condensed and stiff for a while, Xia Jianzhao, who had been cautious all the time, finally opened his mouth to break the silence.

Her voice was very low, without any confidence at all, like a child who had done something wrong was trying to figure out what an adult was thinking.

She thought that Nan Xun had just left court, and there would be many things to deal with.

It was because he couldn't rest assured that he would follow Gu Yan to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so he reluctantly followed him.

The young man didn't seem to hear Xia Jianzhao's words, he looked ahead, cold and desolate.

A pair of eyes were so deep that they could not be penetrated to the bottom, like two abysses, and his calm and unwavering expression made it impossible to guess his emotions at the moment.

After a long time, the atmosphere was very silent, so silent that there were only a few people's footsteps.

Just when Xia Jianzhao thought that he might ignore him, the boy suddenly spoke.

"are you a pig?"

Xia Jianzhao looked up at him blankly.

"what?"

She obviously didn't react.

There was obvious displeasure between Nan Xun's brows.

He clearly confessed that he would not let Gu Yan get close to her.

Was it because the servants didn't take his words seriously, or was it because she was just a stupid rabbit?

"Don't you know how to protect yourself? You don't know friend from foe!"

After a long time, the young man uttered these words coldly.

Xia Jianzhao lowered his eyes to stare at his toes.

The Xia Jianzhao who can't protect himself is dead.
She smiled at him playfully: "With you here, I'm not afraid of anything!"

Hearing this, the young man's thin lips twitched slightly.

He bowed his head and glanced at Xia Jianzhao, loving and angry at her at the same time.

She is not afraid of anything?
But she was afraid of everything about her.

Every time, as long as she was in danger, he would be so nervous that he would suffocate.

The kind of purgatory that seems to have been experienced from hell is really unpleasant to the extreme.

Even if he would try his best and even risk his life to protect her, he would worry that he would not be able to protect her.

Seeing that he lowered his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something, his expression was very dignified.

Xia Jianzhao tugged at his sleeve.

"Your Highness, I know how to protect myself, don't worry, I'm not as stupid as you think"

When she said these words so coquettishly in a low voice, her appearance was so pitiful that it was unbearable to blame her.

Seeing her like this, Nan Xun felt that the originally hard part of his heart suddenly became soft, and finally turned into a vast ocean.

He stretched out his fingertip and scratched her nose.

"It's good to know."

Although he didn't have any trust or confidence in her words, he still didn't continue to investigate further.

Gu Yan, who was walking behind, looked at the two people who were glued to each other and whispered from time to time, with complicated emotions hidden in his big watery eyes.

She walked calmly and kept an appropriate distance. At this moment, she seemed to be a superfluous existence, and the situation was really embarrassing.

However, her strong heart forced herself to quickly reconcile this incongruity, and her heart slowly calmed down.
Arriving at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Nan Chicheng was already waiting in the center of the hall.

As soon as he heard the eunuch's report, he couldn't wait to see Gu Yan.

Several people entered the hall and saluted.

Nan Chicheng ordered someone to give him a seat, and then looked at Gu Yan with a smile.

For this niece whom he had not seen for many years, he showed kindness and affection.

"I thought that I would never have the chance to see you again. What remained in my memory was what you looked like when you were a child."

"It's really a girl's [-]th change. You are now slim and graceful, just like your mother, a beauty."
