Bei Chen Han narrowed his eyes: "Xi Ling, I don't know if you are still so whimsical."
Xi Ling could only laugh, "Beichen, let's wait and see."
Su Nuo knew that if she wanted to visit her family's Mausoleum, that loathsome brat would never agree. She did not directly tell Bei Chen Han about this. Su Nuo looked at Bei Chen Han who was reading the report and frowned, hesitating on what to say.
"Xiao Er, you don't have to look at me sneakily." Bei Chen Han laid down his wrinkles and spoke gently to Su Nuo.
Instinctively, Su Nuo wanted to rebut him, but she swallowed her words before they reached her mouth. She thought for a moment and said, "It's been a while. Has big sister returned?"
Beichen replied, "Did you miss the empress?"
"Naturally." Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Since elder sister is back, I must go and see elder sister." As he spoke, he prepared to leave.
"No." Who knew that Bei Chen Han would grab onto Su Nuo's hand and not let her leave.
Su Nuo was angry. "What are you doing? Don't tell me I can't even look at my sister?" That small face was filled with anger.
Bei Chen was stunned, he did not expect his Na'er to have such a huge reaction. He comforted her: "I didn't say that Na'er cannot go see the Queen, it's just that the palace is not safe right now. It's better for me to accompany Na'er." As he spoke, he took Su Nuo's hand and was about to leave.
The palace was naturally safe, but Bei Chen Han was unable to bear it at all. For a moment, his' nore 'wasn't in his sight, but it was as though he would disappear into thin air when he followed.
Su Nuo wanted to refuse, but she thought that it would be good if she could meet with her sister, so she turned to Bei Chen with a serious face. Beichen was not angry at all. Instead, he pointed at the newly planted expensive flower as he walked. All of a sudden, Beichen asked, "Nono, what kind of flowers do you like the most?" It was only now that Beichen realized that there were many things about him that he did not know.
Su Nuo wholeheartedly wanted to meet her elder sister and find out from her elder sister how her mausoleum was doing. How could she be in the mood to look at any flowers? She replied without thinking, "No."
"Nope." Beichen repeated, and asked again: "Then what does Na Nuo'er like the most?"
Su Nuo instinctively wanted to say that she loved the mausoleum the most, but luckily, she didn't say it out loud. Towards this hateful and mysterious man in front of her, Su Nuo's intuition told her that some things could not be said.
"Your Majesty is lucky …" Bai Qian saw Bei Chen Han and Su Nuo walking over and greeted them with a smile. There was not a single flaw in the expression on his face.
"Elder sister." When Su Nuo saw Whitesnow pounce towards her, of course, she missed her sister very much.
Seeing how happy Su Nuo was, Bei Chen Han's mood improved a lot. He sat down at the side and said, "Empress, I've missed you so much these past few days."
"Elder sister also misses Xiao'er." Her gentle gaze swept over Su Nuo's face and body. She discovered that Su Nuo had lost weight, "Xiao'er, don't you have good food to eat? Look at how thin you are now."
Su Nuo curled her lips, and Bei Chen Han said, "Nuo'er, did you hear, the empress also said that she wants to eat more."
Suño turned to glare at him. What a nosy man. Su Nuo ignored Bei Chen Han, holding Bai Qian's hand, and worry flowed out of her eyes. Bai Qian immediately noticed, and quickly pulled Su Nuo to turn around, causing her face to be turned towards Bei Chen Han. She could not see him clearly, so she pinched Su Nuo's hand.
Only then did Su Nuo realize that, when she lifted her head, she just so happened to see Bai Qian's smile, and her line of sight was Bei Chen Han's. Su Nuo understood Bai Qian's meaning and pretended to chat with him. The two of them talked about some very common questions, and then Bai Qian put a small slip of paper into Su Nuo's sleeve. Su Nuo saw it and was a little surprised, but at least she didn't let it leak.
Su Nuo's heart had been beating wildly ever since she came back from Whitesnow. She wanted to see the slip of paper that Whitesnow had given her. Su Nuo knew that the contents must be related to her mausoleum. But Bei Chen Han did not leave for a long time. He sat at the table, scooped a bowl of bird's nest, and said to Su Nuo, "Xiao'er, drink this."
Su Nuo only wanted him to disappear so she went over and drank that bowl of bird's nest without even looking at it. Beichen frowned. "Xiao'er, don't drink in such a hurry."
Su Nuo finished drinking the wine in one breath, placed the bowl on the table, and said, "I've finished drinking. You can go now."
"Nore." Bei Chen Han shouted.
Su Nuo was getting impatient. "Why aren't you leaving? I need to rest."
Bei Chen Han looked at Su Nuo's expression, and finally said, "Then I'll be going. Xiao'er, you need to rest early." Su Nuo replied casually. Once Bei Chen Han left, Su Nuo closed the door and waited for a while. She looked through the window and confirmed that Bei Chen Han had gone far away. Then she took out the slip of paper and looked at it.
Bai Qian knew that Su Nuo could not read, so she drew a simple painting. She told Su Nuo that Xiling was imprisoned in the forbidden palace, but everything was fine. She assured Su Nuo that she would not act rashly.
When he finished reading the note, Su Nuo's heart began to thump loudly. Her mausoleum was fine, so it was fine as long as it was fine. Su Nuo took the slip of paper and sat on the bed. She could not help but smile. But this feeling didn't last long for Su Nuo. It wasn't until she woke up the next morning that Su Nuo started to want to see her family's mausoleum. She only needed to take a look.
But reality would not allow Su Nuo to do as she wished, because Bei Chen Han was practically not far from her, and he had even moved to Su Nuo's place for official business.
While Su Nuo was eating the pastries on the plate, she was thinking about Beichen Han, who was beside her, and how she could avoid this hateful man.
Bei Chen Han looked up from his memorials and saw that Su Nuo's face was scrunched up. He asked, "Nore, what's wrong? Are you unhappy about something?"
Su Nuo was shocked. Afraid that someone would notice something amiss, she shook her head. "It's fine, it's fine." Pausing for a moment, he seemed to think that it was not enough, he then placed the plate on the table in front of Bei Chen Han, saying: "Then, you must be hungry, eat some."
Bei Chen Han froze. This was the first time in a long time that his Na'er had been willing to get close to him. Bei Chen Han had no doubts about anything else, just being happy was not enough. As he spoke, he put a piece of cake into his mouth and happily ate it.
Su Nuo was a little absent-minded and glanced at the jade pendant on Bei Chen Han's waist out of the corner of her eyes. She suddenly had a flash of inspiration and stood up to pour some tea for Bei Chen Han: "This cake is very dry, it's better to drink some tea." As he said that, he intentionally knocked over the teacup, and the tea water was naturally poured onto Bei Chen Han's body. Su Nuo hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." As he spoke, he helped Bei Chen Han wipe his clothes.
Su Nuo had never stolen anything before, and her heart was beating nervously. It was unknown whether it was because she was too happy or because she was too slow, but Su Nuo had actually succeeded.
Bei Chenghan thought that he was frightened by him and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay."
Su Nuo took the opportunity to stand up and look at his wet clothes. "I'm really sorry. You should change your clothes. Otherwise, you'll get sick easily."
"Norrell, are you worried about me?" Bei Chen Han grabbed onto Su Nuo's hand excitedly.
Su Nuo really wanted to shake him off, but she resisted the urge and said, "Go and change your clothes first." Pausing for a moment, he continued, "As an apology, let me help you make your favorite soup."
Bei Chen Han's eyes opened wide in disbelief: "Xiao'er, you remember?" He was so excited that his entire body felt like it would stick to him.
Su Nuo was even more disgusted with Bei Chen Han, and she could only forcefully pull her hand away: "I don't know what you're talking about, I just want to make some hot soup for you to keep warm to prevent myself from getting cold."
Beichen was stunned, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he quickly recovered. Su Nuo said, "Quickly go and change your clothes." Saying that, he pushed Beichen out.
Bei Chen Han still smiled at Su Nuo, and finally said: "Alright."
Su Nuo pulled him back, saying with worry, "Then you can change your clothes and wait here. You're not allowed to look for me, I don't like to be disturbed when I'm making soup, not even if it's a servant. Otherwise, I won't let you drink my soup."
Su Nuo didn't talk much with him, and Bei Chen Han treated this as Su Nuo acting like a spoiled child, and dotingly said: "Alright, I'll be waiting in this room for Xiao'er to come back. Xiao'er only needs to cook the soup properly."
Su Nuo looked at Bei Chen Han. Seeing that he wasn't playing any tricks, she headed in the opposite direction.
It wasn't like Su Nuo didn't feel Bei Chen Han's attitude towards Su Nuo. It was just that when Su Nuo thought about how he doted on him, she felt more and more disgusted. No, it wasn't just disgust.
Because they arrived late.
That — might as well have been something that never happened.
Su Nuo made a fool of herself to get rid of this inexplicable feeling as she quickly walked towards the Forbidden Palace. Su Nuo naturally didn't want to go to the forbidden palace, but with her mausoleum located there, no matter what, she had to go there.
Forbidden palace.
When Su Nuo saw the heavy guard, her heart instinctively trembled. But in the end, she puffed out her chest and walked over with the jade pendant. The guard naturally stopped Su Nuo and sternly said, "You are not allowed to enter here."
Su Nuo clenched her fists tightly and said, "The emperor told me to pass on a message to the person inside. This is what the emperor gave me." As he spoke, he took the jade pendant that was about to break out in sweat and brought it to the guard.
The guard hesitated for a moment before looking at the jade pendant again. This jade pendant was indeed the Emperor's. Finally, he said, "Then you can go in, but you have to hurry."
Su Nuo didn't expect it to be so smooth and almost laughed out loud. Fortunately, she held it back in the end.
Xi Ling paced back and forth on the grass. He had never thought that he would miss a person so much that he almost couldn't control his own rationality. He wanted to see this idiotic woman who guarded him all the time.
"What do you think an idiot woman is doing now?" Xi Ling asked.
The black robed man naturally knew that his master was asking him, so he said, "Su Nuo must be thinking about you."
Xi Ling was very satisfied with this answer. "Hmph, if that idiot woman dares to not want this daddy, then this daddy will teach her a lesson."
