In the courtyard, Su Nuo was holding onto her chin as she looked at the sky. Suddenly, she felt a warm sensation on her body. Even without turning her head, Su Nuo could tell that the Duke of Bei Chen had returned. The Duke of Northern Chen hugged him from behind and said, "Little Nuo, I missed you so much."

Su Nuo smiled. There were many things that she couldn't say. For example, she also wanted to say them because they were fake. So in the end, she couldn't say them out loud.

Duke Bei Chen pressed his face against Su Nuo's, like a tired child seeking comfort.

"What happened?" Su Nuo faintly sensed something and turned around to ask.

Duke Bei Chen walked over and sat down next to Su Nuo: "No, I just miss little Nuo."

The smile on Su Nuo's face became more and more gentle. The wind blew from afar, causing their clothes to flutter. Her heart ached because of this person's words. This person, no matter what, would easily make her feel this kind of heartache. Su Nuo stretched out her hand and touched his face. "I will stay here and wait for you to come back."

It was impossible to say words that thought about him, could not say words that already liked him, and even more impossible to say words that loved him, because these were all beautiful lies. She knew that this person also knew, so it was better not to say them.

What he said hurt even more than lies.

So, she would never say something like that in her entire life, unless, one day, she really fell in love with this person, unless, one day, there was such a thing.

The Duke of Beichen leaned forward and gently hugged Su Nuo, "Thank you, little Nuo."

Su Nuo didn't say anything. She just let this person hug her, then tightly hugged this person.

That complicated feeling from before had completely disappeared. Although she would inevitably be scared and nervous, but ah, if this person went there, she would definitely follow him somewhere and stay with him forever, as long as he still needed her.

Thus, even if she went to hell to accompany this person, she wouldn't hesitate. Then, what else was there to be afraid of?

No need to be afraid.

However, when the day of the ceremony arrived, Su Nuo was so nervous that her whole body went stiff. Shuno stretched out his hands for the maidservant to help her dress up and roll up her hair into a bun.

Su Nuo kept taking deep breaths, but she was not used to being served like this. She was born to serve others, but now she was being served. This was a huge change for her.

The servant girl tidied everything up and looked at Su Nuo blankly. She then said, "Crown Princess, you're really good-looking."

Su Nuo was stunned. No matter if it was the Crown Princess, or her looks, they were all things she couldn't accept. She forced a smile on her face.

The servant girl reminded him, "The Crown Prince is waiting for you outside." Su Nuo nodded. She still hoped to see the viscount as soon as possible so that she could be at ease.

The servant girl pushed open the door. The people outside were all stunned when they saw Su Nuo.

"Little Nuo, you look really good." The Duke of Beichen stepped forward, and looked at Su Nuo with eyes full of adoration.

Su Nuo smiled at Duke Bei Chen.

Bai Qian also stepped forward. "Na'er, you're really beautiful."

"Elder sister, stop teasing me." Su Nuo was a little displeased. Being called good-looking again and again like this was really something she wasn't used to.

The surprise in Bei Chen Han's eyes receded, and he looked at Su Nuo with a complicated expression. He had never thought that his pet would be this good-looking. It was so good-looking that he did not want anyone to see it. The person who wanted to have her at this moment was him and not Duke Bei Chen. He wanted …

The chief eunuch reminded him, "Crown Prince, it's time to leave."

Lord Bei Chen acknowledged and took Su Nuo's hand, "Xiao Nuo, let's go." Su Nuo nodded and unconsciously tightened her grip on his hand.

Bei Chen Han stared at Su Nuo holding hands with the Duke of Bei Chen, wanting to hold his hand and not this damned Duke of Bei Chen's hand.

As he watched them leave, Bei Chen Han had never felt that the time was so long. He wished that he could get the plan ahead of time, snatch back this pet that only belonged to him, and hide it in a place that no one else could find. It could only belong to him.

Even if others were to see it, they would not be able to.

Su Nuo followed the Duke of Beicheng forward, and Xiling happened to walk over. Seeing Su Nuo in her formal attire, he was stunned. Immediately, a trace of a disdainful smile appeared in his eyes as he muttered to himself, "This ugly bastard is really …" The following words were unclear.

When Su Nuo saw Xi Ling, she instinctively wanted to pretend that she didn't see him. She was really afraid of this person. She was afraid that if this person came up to her and didn't argue with her, she would cry.

However, Xi Ling only greeted the Duke of Northern Chen, turned a blind eye to Su Nuo, and just passed by.

Su Nuo could not help but heave a sigh of relief. She would rather that person ignored her every time, but it was a pity for that person's face. Su Nuo was still deeply impressed by the unparalleled face of Xiling.

It was an extremely luxurious carriage, and every part of the carvings were impeccable. Even Su Nuo was amazed.

The Duke of Beichen supported Su Nuo and carefully got on the carriage. Then, he sat on the carriage himself.

"Han, let's go as well." Bai Qian said to Beichen, "I'm worried that Xiao'er will be too nervous."

"Yes." Bei Chen Han pulled Bai Qian and walked forward, sat in the car at the back, and followed Su Nuo out of the palace.

When the people on the street saw the future Crown Prince, Crown Princess, Second Prince, and Second Prince, they all felt extremely honored.

Bei Chen Han looked at Su Nuo's delicate face full of nervousness and fear. She looked like a small pet, sticking close to the Duke of Bei Chen as if seeking his protection.

He wanted to tell these foolish commoners that things were not as they had seen, that the woman sitting beside the Duke of Beichen was not the future Crown Prince's consort, nor was it the Duke of Bei Chen's woman, it was him — Beichen's from beginning to end, was his, and was his pet before, and from now on, was his.

It had nothing to do with this damned Viscount Beichen.

But regardless of how angry Beichen's heart was, the facts proved that these people did not know. At that time, Beichen had issued an imperial decree forbidding people from talking about the Second Prince giving up his wife, and people only knew that their Second Prince had married a woman, and now that he was gone, they did not even know his name, much less what he looked like. After all, at that time, Beichen's marriage to Su Nuo was indeed very low-key, and to the beautiful woman sitting beside their future Crown Prince, their knowledge was very simple.

In fact, this was exactly the effect Bei Chen Yan wanted. He wanted Bei Chen Han to regret it no matter what, but there was no way out in front of everyone else. He wanted Bei Chen Han to no longer be a hindrance for Su Nuo to stay by the Duke of Bei Chen's side.

Only, in the end, even Bei Chen Yan did not expect that one day, Bei Chen Han would openly regret his actions in front of everyone, even walking the life of the entire world. From the furthest distance, he walked bloody in front of Su Nuo, wanting to snatch her back and ask for her forgiveness.

However, none of them had thought of it now, much less foreseen it.

When they drove through the streets, everyone in the capital could see the Crown Prince and his wife in the future. The entire city was in an uproar.

After the ceremony, the car returned to the palace. Su Nuo let out a heavy sigh of relief. Previously, she was still quite nervous, but now that it was over, she felt like she was going to collapse from exhaustion.

The heavy ornaments on his head had already been removed, turning into a simple bun. Su Nuo sat on the chair and took a sip of tea. She suddenly felt that this cup of tea was really delicious like never before.

"Little Nono." Lord Beichen appeared in front of Su Nuo. Just as Su Nuo wanted to ask him if he wanted tea, the man leaned forward and kissed Su Nuo on the lips.

Su Nuo was stunned and her eyes widened instantly. But as the kiss deepened, only a gentle light remained in Su Nuo's eyes. Although she wished for such a kiss to come from her master, if it was this person, even if it was her body, she would be more than willing.

Since she had made a promise to keep each other's lives at that time, she must accept something so natural to this extent. She must accept it as well.

The door was ajar, and Beichen could clearly see what was happening. He watched as Lord Bei Chen kissed Su Nuo, hugged him tighter, and deepened the kiss. Then Su Nuo also hugged him, and the two of them kissed again, as if no one else was around.

He suddenly felt pain in his chest. It was painful, so much so that he couldn't breathe. It was as if there was a huge hole in his chest, and emotions were gushing out of it like crazy.

He wanted to snatch back his pet and hug her in his arms. The person who wanted to kiss her was him. He wanted to, he wanted. He wanted. He wanted. He wanted.

"Frigid — —" Bai Qian was stunned when she saw the scene in front of her, and immediately pulled Bei Chen Han away.

He wanted to gnaw on it, wanted to tear it apart, but he couldn't do anything. He could only allow the pet he raised in his hand to be kissed by another man in the arms of another man. He could only …

As soon as Bai Qian pulled Bei Chenghan into the room, Bei Chenghan immediately pressed Bai Qian against the wall and madly kissed him.

If he wanted an outlet to vent, if he wanted to do something, he had to do it, he had to do it, otherwise, he felt that something was going to tear him apart. If he did not do it, he felt that he would definitely go over and use his sword to kill Lord Beichen, he definitely would.

Bai Qian was stunned by the sudden kiss. It was just that she did not struggle at all.

The Duke of Northern Chen let go of Su Nuo and realized what he had done. He panicked like a child and did not dare look at Su Nuo. Su Nuo found it funny, "Why is the Third Marquis so unresponsible for me?"
