The rain kept falling, and the rain kept hitting the window. The sound of thunder was extremely terrifying.

The candles in the room lit up, and Su Jinruo stood by the window with a cape draped over his shoulders.

The closer they got to the capital, the colder the temperature became.

She had told Lv Ruo before that the temperature of her palm was so cold that there was no need to cover it with a cape.

Lv Ruo had never listened to her and had always insisted on helping her. Only then did he feel at ease.

Since there was someone showing concern for her, it was naturally for the best. Su Jinruo did not stop Lv Ruo and let her go.

"Rumble …"

"Pa …"

Su Jinruo raised his eyes and looked out from the gap in the window. In the gloomy sky, there was lightning that streaked across the sky, and the mottled light and shadow that shined on Su Jinruo's face looked slightly pale.

On a stormy night...

Su Jinruo suddenly felt a little absent-minded. The events that happened two years ago slowly surfaced in his mind.

There were some things that she had left behind and no longer held grudges against.

Some people... She placed it in her heart, unable to eradicate it.

Don't ask her when it happened. She doesn't know when it happened.

She only knew that the elaborate scene of kissing made her realize that she wasn't … Exclude him.

At the moment when they were intimately close to each other, she even heard the sound of her own heart beating, that rational string in her head, and the sound of her heart breaking.

She didn't have the experience of being in love, but that didn't stop her from knowing what it was like to be moved.

But...

He shouldn't have hidden those feelings that he shouldn't have at the bottom of his heart.

Not to mention, her identity was taboo, she couldn't control everything, and that was him. As a member of the royal family, he was the kind of person that she loathed being in the center of power …

How can you like someone you shouldn't like?

Su Jinruo turned around, and his gaze landed on the history of the country at the side of the table.

She had just picked up the National History when there was a knock on the door.

Without much thought, thinking that Lv Ruo had given her some snacks to eat, Su Jinruo walked over with the book in one hand. He removed the wooden board placed on the wooden door and opened it.

In the dark night, a tall shadow appeared in her line of sight.

At first, Su Jinruo was startled, but soon after, her brows knitted slightly as she opened her mouth to call out:

"Prince, you …"

Before she could finish, she was pulled into a firm embrace.

With a "bang", Su Jinruo only knew that the door had been closed, but she was tightly shackled to the wooden door.

His unguarded lips were pressed down.

Such a violent attack, Su Jinruo had no time to think at all. The National Guardian in his hands powerlessly slipped and fell to the ground with a clatter.

The sound of her falling was as if she had fallen into hell, into a deep abyss of love, unable to extricate herself.

That person's demeanor was crazy, as if he was going to vent all of the pent-up emotions he had been feeling at this very moment.

His hand pulled open her cloak, and just as Su Jinruo felt a trace of coldness, she was immediately engulfed by his cloak.

In the end, he was a rational person. Su Jinruo's aura was in disorder, his hand was trying to push the person on his body away.

"Your Highness, stop!"

In the warm air current, there was a hint of alcohol. Luckily, Su Jinruo was not afraid of people drinking, and was not afraid of the alcohol on his body.

Hearing Su Jinruo's voice, Shen Hancheng's movements froze.

He stopped all his movements, raised his eyes, and looked in front of him … The person he was holding tightly to in his arms.

The person in front of him seemed to be frightened by his actions as he widened his extremely good-looking eyes.

He lowered his head and gave a cold smile.

How could he not be scared?

He liked him and liked a man. Just this earth-shattering news was enough to frighten the citizens of the world, not to mention …

The person in front of him was the youth that he had passed on.

After a long while, he said to Su Jinruo in a low and hoarse voice, "Do you know how this king deals with them, and the people who should not exist in this world?"

"Right now, this official still doesn't want to know about your highness' methods. It's already late in the night, so your highness should return to your room to rest."

What should he say about Su Jinruo?

In a short period of time, he had already returned to his previous self.

Shen Hancheng's gaze fixated itself on the silent youth. This person... Truly, a rational person.

On the other hand, he was becoming more and more irrational.

He suddenly approached her, both hands on her sides, and stared at her with burning eyes.

Su Jinruo's eyes dodged to the side. His hands under his sleeves had already been clenched into fists, but … But he didn't do anything.

Warm lips covered her again, brushing against her lips like dragonflies.

Someone's body was extremely tense and stiff at the same time. The corner of Shen Hancheng's mouth slightly curved upwards.

His two lips pressed together, but he did not move them away. It was unknown if he was unwilling or if he did it on purpose.

"This king has violated the last wishes of the Consort Mother. Su Jinruo, say … Are you a sinner of This King? "

With these words, that domineering youth just a moment ago suddenly collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon.

Su Jinruo caught him quickly, but never thought that he would be drunk, without any energy to support his body.

Su Jinruo's hand strength could not be changed for the moment, his entire body was pulled away by him, and fell onto his body.

Half propping himself up, Su Jinruo looked at the person with his eyes closed and pursed his lips.

He was truly drunk …

It was because of this that he dared to act so recklessly towards her.

Su Jinruo lowered her eyes slightly. Her long and thick eyelashes lightly trembled a few times.

"I thought I guessed wrong. So it turns out that you've really fallen in love with me …"

Back then, when she found out that she liked Shen Hancheng, she was also surprised to realize that Shen Hancheng had an unusual attitude towards her.

At that time, a violent storm raged in her heart. If she hadn't noticed Shen Hancheng's actions back then, then …

It was impossible for her to react so quickly to what he had done tonight.

What's more, if his mind is blank, he will go with him. At that time …

The identity of the woman was undoubtedly about to be exposed.

Su Jinruo's gaze moved to Shen Hancheng's face, and his voice had a faint coldness.

"You said that I am your sinner, but have you ever thought that you are also my sinner?"

Her current identity was still that of a man, and she was thus presumptuous, allowing that man to do whatever he wanted to her.

Whose fault?

The good news of her missing sleeve had deceived the world, but the good news of his, Long Yang, had convinced everyone …

Shen Hancheng.

If one day you find out, my red makeup...

At that time, would you still like... Me?

Tonight, he would completely lose sleep until dawn.

Outside the window, the rain continued to fall and Lv Ruo was once again hurting his soul, cursing the heavens for being unfair.

In this remote village, there were no great roads to walk on, and he didn't dare wander down the small paths. He was unable to keep up with Shen Fan's footsteps, and even more so, wasn't able to go back to see the familiar faces in the courtyard. Sad.

Su Jinruo walked downstairs to eat, and unintentionally met Shen Hancheng.

As if it was unexpected, as if it was also expected, Shen Hancheng could not see Su Jinruo's expression clearly.

"Aiyayaya, aiya, aiya! It's been a few days, I can finally …" have breakfast with the beautiful Miss Lv Ruo. "

Lv Ruo rolled his eyes at Qian Yijian, ignored him, and focused on cooking for him.

Qian Yijian was completely ignored, and did not have an awkward expression.

He glanced at his master and saw that his expression was indifferent. His gaze was fixated on … The youth's expression was even colder than his, and his heart couldn't help but move.

However, he did not say anything. In some aspects … He was much better than Qian Yi that blockhead.

Natural... That was all because of Shen Hancheng's daily routine. He had sent him to the Yi Hong Courtyard just because he was displeased with the results of his cultivation.

Su Jinruo ignored the scorching gaze that was following him around like a shadow, but he could not say anything.

Right now, the situation was too chaotic. She and Shen Hancheng … It was even more chaotic.

The breakfast was not bad, but Su Jinruo felt that it tasted like chewing wax.

She did not have any mood to eat, so she casually ate a few bites to cope with Lv Ruo's nagging. Then she stood up and prepared to return to her room to rest.

The rain continued to fall, but now … Somewhat inappropriate, it would be better to go back to his room and think about it. His plan upon returning to the capital …

Just as Su Jinruo stood up straight, he stared at her movements, and said:

"Halt."

Hearing the voice, she stopped her steps, turned around, and without looking at Shen Hancheng, Su Jinruo asked:

"Your Highness, what orders do you have for me?"

Shen Hancheng's expression remained calm and tranquil, but there was a faint tinge of bewilderment and unease mixed within.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Qian Yijian turned his head and planned to retreat.

However, unintentionally saw Lv Ruo … He just stood at the side in a daze. He didn't seem to have any intention of avoiding the topic. He couldn't help but click his tongue.

This Su Jinruo is so intelligent, why are his subordinates... Was he that stupid?!

With two light coughs, Qian Yijian cupped his hands and said:

"Mistress, your subordinate will take his leave."

Without waiting for Shen Hancheng's consent, he stood up and walked towards the foolish Lv Ruo.

When he passed by her, he grabbed her wrist and half dragged her away.

Lv Ruo was evidently shocked, and from afar, he heard her voice:

"What are you doing? Who allowed you to touch me? Who allowed you to pull me away? You …"

The inn was remote and there weren't many people staying there.

Without even a waiter left, Qian Yijian shook the silver in his hand, and immediately took out the only shopkeeper who didn't know how to behave … He dismissed them.

There weren't any random people on the first floor. It was completely empty … There were only two people left who were silent.

The air suddenly became tranquil, the deathly silence causing people to feel uneasy.

Even the sound of his heart beating could be heard clearly.

Seeming to be in a deadlock, Su Jinruo's eyes flashed as he said:

"If Your Highness has nothing else, this official will first …"

"Last night …"

Shen Hancheng cut off Su Jinruo's words without a trace of politeness.

His eyes were like torches as they firmly locked onto the youth in front of him. "Last night, did This King …"
