The smile on Baili Lianer's lips faded, and was even a little sad.

The smile on the empress's face did not decrease by half, "What's wrong, you saw a girl beside Lao Jiu, are you unhappy?"

Baili Lianer laughed bitterly, "Big Brother Yin, it seems that you are very good to her …"

She and Su Nanxing had been friends since childhood. He had always been a good person, but after the death of Noble Consort Qin, he had become much more taciturn.

Along the way, she also felt a sense of estrangement …

She was the only girl who could get close to him.

He originally thought that in his heart, she was the most special, but he didn't expect that there would be another girl that easily took away his gaze …

All of his attention was focused on...

Women were very sensitive creatures, especially when facing their love rivals.

The expression in Su Nanxing's eyes as he looked at Lin Xuecha was filled with gentleness.

Where was the shadow of the cold noble Ninth Prince Su Nanxing …?

Thinking about it, Baili Lianer became even more upset.

The empress, on the other hand, had turned a blind eye to her worries.

She remembered the look Su Nanxing had given her.

Could it be that he also wanted her to misunderstand that he was actually very good to that bitch Lin Xuecha?!

A cool breeze blew past, sweeping up the fallen flowers in the courtyard.

The empress's eyes were fixed on the falling flowers of the dance.

The light in her eyes could not conceal the viciousness hidden in her eyes as she said,

"You must remember, your father died because of Lao Jiu and you were injured because of him. You nearly lost your life because of him.

Didn't he not reject your return to Ninth Prince's Palace? If Lao Jiu truly likes others, I don't even have to worry about you.

Since Qian Wu left it for him, Lin Xuecha and Su Nanxing returned to the manor on foot.

Fortunately … The Ninth Prince Palace was not far from the Imperial Palace.

After leaving the palace gate for half a kilometer, Su Nanxing withdrew the big hand that was wrapped around his waist.

Lin Xuecha's eyelashes twitched, and she no longer pretended to be a lame person, returning to her normal posture.

The two of them left in silence. The atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Lin Xuecha had a question hidden in his heart.

How is the relationship between the Ninth Prince Su Nanxing and the current Empress like? However, it's not convenient to ask Su Nanxing this question …

She had just returned to the Capital City, she didn't have any power or connections, so this matter involved him, and others couldn't believe it either …

That... Of course there would be no answer.

Tsk, this feeling is so terrible …

Lin Xuecha never liked being passive, taking the initiative to attack was her character.

She originally had her eyes lowered, but just as she raised them, she was about to ask Su Nanxing which clan's young miss of Capital City had the habit of hosting a banquet, but …

Before she could say anything, a runaway horse charged at them from the crowd that was rushing away.

The rider on the horse swayed from side to side, constantly shouting to get out of the way, to get out of the way …

Lin Xuecha naturally saw it.

Her eyes narrowed as her gaze fell on the horse that had lost control.

The silver needle in his sleeve was already between his fingers, ready to go.

At that moment, the man beside her glanced at her, and when the horse came charging, he took action before her.

However, he did not make a move to deal with the uncontrollable horse, but instead —

She.

Lin Xuecha was suddenly hugged, and her body spun, rolling a few rounds with the man on her body.

The horse galloped past them, roaring and galloping.

Being protected by Su Nanxing, other than being surprised at Su Nanxing's actions, Lin Xuecha did not look like he was injured at all.

She raised her eyes to look at him and saw that his face was pale and his brows were tightly knitted together. He looked as if he was seriously injured.

Her heart clenched, she pushed him away, trying to check for injuries, but the man held her hand, refusing to let her move.

He lowered his head to her ear and said in a low voice:

"There's someone looking at us in the restaurant opposite us."
