son, don't mess around

Jinxiu in the yard was a little confused. Why did she feel something was wrong?
Princess, what happened?
Didn’t the princess go out of the city to look for His Highness before?

Why did you come back alone?
Where is your highness?
Where is An Ning?
Just as Jinxiu was still standing in the yard in a daze, after a while, footsteps were heard outside the yard again.

Jinxiu looked up at the gate and saw a girl holding a sword walking into the yard. It was late at night, and the girl was gentle, her steps were silent, and she lowered her head.

Somewhat sneaky.

"peaceful?!"

Jinxiu's eyes lit up immediately.

An Ning paused as she walked into the yard, looked up subconsciously, and saw Jinxiu walking towards her excitedly.

When she came to her, Jinxiu first looked at An Ning carefully from head to toe with a burning gaze. After looking at An Ning completely inside and out, Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he moved closer to An Ning, sniffed carefully up and down, and finally felt relieved after making sure there was nothing unusual.

"what are you doing?!"

An Ning was frightened by Jinxiu's behavior. She took a step back and looked at her warily.

"Ahem... I'm just checking to see if you're injured. I'm concerned about you..."

An Ning had a blank expression on her face and didn't want to pay attention to her.

Is he caring about her, or does he have some other purpose... An Ning is not stupid.

How can you not see it?
She was clearly worried...

As if she had thought of something, An Ning felt an inexplicable emotion in her heart. She frowned, looked away, and ignored Jinxiu.

Jinxiu felt relieved after confirming that her sister was safe and sound.

Although she kept comforting herself in her heart, Jinxiu was still a little worried... After all, having a sister who looked exactly like her put a lot of pressure on her.

Especially since An Ning went out alone with His Highness, and once she was out of her sight, Jinxiu couldn't help but have wild thoughts.

Of course, there was no way she would admit this.

"Is the matter done?"

Jinxiu then remembered the important matter: "What did His Highness take you out to do? Tell me quickly, what happened?"

"Confess the truth quickly!"

Jinxiu was very curious and wanted to know what His Highness had done with An Ning tonight.

But An Ning didn't really want to pay attention to Jinxiu, and said with a straight face and expressionless face: "Murder."

"kill?"

Jinxiu blinked, a little surprised: "Who did you kill?"

"do not know."

"Are you going out tonight specifically to kill someone?"

"do not know."

"Who did you kill tonight?"

"Bad guy."

"Which bad guy?"

"do not know."

"..."

The smile on Jinxiu's face froze, and she said angrily: "An Ning, are you doing this on purpose?"

"How can I ask you if you don't know anything?"

An Ning glanced at her and said expressionlessly, "I just don't know."

"I'm tired, I need to rest."

After saying that, An Ning ignored Jinxiu and walked back to her room.

Jinxiu was left standing there, furious.

"An Ning, this is too much. Do you still see me as your sister?"

An Ning has completely become a bad person and no longer takes her sister seriously!
"Well, forget it if you don't want to say anything!"

Jinxiu's face turned red with anger, but her eyes became more suspicious.

Something is wrong!
Where did An Ning go with the prince tonight?
Why doesn’t An Ning say anything?
Could it be... there is something fishy going on?

Jinxiu stood in the yard, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. After hesitating for a moment, she turned around and walked out of the yard.

snort!
If An Ning doesn't say anything, then she will go directly to ask His Highness.

Jinxiu was ready to go and "raise an army to hold the culprit accountable" in a threatening manner!
……

On the other side, Lin Jiangnian had just returned to the palace. He ordered people to detain Chen Junru, find a doctor to treat his injuries, and asked Lin Qingqing to take good care of Xu Xianglian.

This woman is currently the most important witness in Lin Jiangnian's hands, and no mistakes can be made.

For Xu Xianglian, tonight's experience was undoubtedly a journey from hell to heaven.

Originally, she had almost given up any hope. Her husband was murdered, she was insulted by the beast, and she was trapped in it. Tonight, she was almost defiled by the beast again. She was already in despair.

But at the critical moment, the people from the Linwang Mansion rescued her like a god descending from heaven. That night, Xu Xianglian was in a trance and in disbelief.

It was not until now, the moment she stepped into Prince Lin’s Mansion, that she finally realized... all this was true.

It also gave her a glimmer of hope again... maybe the Prince of Lin could really give her justice? !

Xu Xianglian cried for joy, and due to excitement her blood rushed up and she fainted.

Frightened Lin Qingqing quickly called a doctor. After some treatment, the doctor confirmed that she was just a little weak due to fear these days, and there was nothing serious. She would recover after some treatment. Lin Qingqing was relieved.

Not long after, Xu Xianglian woke up under the doctor's treatment. After waking up, she burst into tears and excitedly grabbed Lin Qingqing and thanked her repeatedly.

Lin Qingqing did not forget His Highness' instructions. After Xu Xianglian's condition stabilized, she began to ask her in detail about everything she knew.

For Xu Xianglian, speaking out these things would undoubtedly open up her scars again and make her recall painful memories.

But now that she knew she had a chance to avenge her husband, Xu Xianglian was extremely excited. She recounted word for word, detailing all the pain and torture she had experienced during this period.

"Chen Junru, he, he is a beast..."

……

After Lin Jiangnian gave the instructions, he returned to the inner courtyard first.

It was already late at night, but the palace was still brightly lit.

At the gate of Lin Jiangnian's courtyard, the two little maids had not yet rested and were still waiting outside the yard for Lin Jiangnian to return.

"Your Highness, you are back?!"

When the two little maids saw the prince coming back, they came forward excitedly, one on the left and one on the right to greet Lin Jiangnian back to the room.

"Your Highness, the hot water is ready. Would you like to take a bath first?"

"Do you need a servant to serve Your Highness?"

The two little maids looked at each other with burning eyes, excited and secretly expectant.

"No need, it's getting late, you should all go and rest early."

Lin Jiangnian waved his hand and rejected the kindness of the two maids.

The two maids had burning eyes, as if they wanted to eat him. The maids were indeed pretty and lovely, and they were his personal maids.

However, Lin Jiangnian is not interested in them for the time being.

After politely declining the two's kindness, the two little maids looked obviously disappointed, but still nodded obediently and left reluctantly.

After the two maids left, Lin Jiangnian was about to take a bath and change clothes. At this time, Jinxiu just came in.

"beautiful?"

When Lin Jiangnian was about to take off his clothes, he saw Jinxiu, who was wearing a light shirt and a light silk skirt, appear. Her delicate face was tense and she looked aggressive.
If it weren't for the plump chest visible under the light silk skirt, at first glance, Lin Jiangnian almost thought it was An Ning.

There's no way, they sisters look so alike!
They are more similar than the sisters Jasmine and Fengling. Lin Jiangnian can usually tell the two girls apart at a glance. They look very similar, but there are also obvious differences between them.

But Jinxiu and An Ning look exactly the same, and it is common to mistake them if you are not careful.

Under such circumstances, it is understandable that one might make a mistake at first glance.

Fortunately, there were obvious features that made it much easier for Lin Jiangnian to distinguish. "Why are you here?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at the sky.

"Why, can't the servant come?"

Jinxiu was already angry, and after hearing Lin Jiangnian's words, she felt a little aggrieved. Her tone became gloomy, and she stared at him with resentment in her eyes.

"Ok?"

What's wrong with her?
Weren't you fine when you left in the afternoon?
"What? Who bullied you again?"

Lin Jiangnian said with a smile.

"Who else could it be?!"

Jinxiu said angrily in a gloomy tone, "An Ning!"

"peaceful?"

Lin Jiangnian was stunned for a moment: "Did An Ning bully you?"

"Yes."

"That's really strange."

Lin Jiangnian was puzzled: "Don't you usually bully her? How could she bully you?"

"Where are you from?!"

Hearing that Lin Jiangnian was still speaking up for An Ning, Jinxiu became even angrier: "How did I bully her? She is so powerful and has such high martial arts skills. I am just a weak woman, how dare I bully her?"

"On weekdays, she is the one who bullies me!"

Jinxiu felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and she began to wipe away her tears with her hand.

Jinxiu's temperament is naturally elegant. Compared with An Ning, she has a bit more of the fragility of a Jiangnan woman. Her current pitiful appearance is really heartbreaking.

Even though Lin Jiangnian knew that this woman was three-tenths true, seven-tenths false, and the remaining ninety-tenths were all acting for him, he couldn't help but be moved when he saw Jinxiu's pitiful look.

He stepped forward and gently embraced Jinxiu in his arms, and comforted her softly: "Okay, okay, it was An Ning who bullied you. When I see her tomorrow, I will help you teach her a lesson, okay?"

Jinxiu struggled and twisted her body, and her complexion finally looked much better.

"Hmph, Your Highness still has some conscience..."

Lin Jiangnian smiled. He knew that Jinxiu was not really angry, nor was she really bullied. She just came here to act for him.

Little acting genius!

She looks mature on weekdays, but how mature can a teenage girl be?

After all, the behavior is still a bit childish.

Lin Jiangnian was also happy to cooperate with her. After all, she was already his woman, so what was wrong with coaxing her?
While whispering softly to coax the woman in his arms, he gently hugged Jinxiu's slender waist, feeling the full and elastic touch of the woman in his arms against his chest.

"By the way, you came to me so late at night, not just to complain about An Ning, right?"

Lin Jiangnian lowered his head slightly, and from his sight, he could catch a glimpse of Jinxiu's beautiful and delicate face. Following the exquisite chin line, he could vaguely see the peaks and ridges hidden deep within the clothes.

fascinating.

"of course not!"

Jinxiu snorted softly.

She came to complain about An Ning to His Highness just for the sake of incidental action. She had no intention of doing so when she came. After meeting His Highness, she didn't know why she felt wronged... So, she brought up An Ning and complained about her.

Her real purpose was just to get His Highness to coax her.

His Highness did not disappoint her and really coaxed her obediently. This made the last bit of emotion in Jinxiu's heart disappear completely.

After being reminded of this, she finally remembered her purpose.

But just as she was about to say something, Jinxiu quickly realized something, was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked up and looked into Lin Jiangnian's eyes.

Soon, she found that His Highness was staring at her, and there seemed to be something shining in those familiar eyes.

It was a bit fiery, a bit burning, and extremely aggressive...

Jinxiu was not unfamiliar with this. One could even say... very familiar with it!

Jinxiu reacted quickly, subconsciously put her hands over her chest, and her face began to turn red: "Your Highness, what are you looking at?!"

"No, stop looking!"

She naturally knew what His Highness was looking at.

"You're not allowed to watch it?"

"No, I won't let you!"

Jinxiu blushed and spat.

Your Highness is so shameless!

How can you say it so bluntly?
"Is it?"

Lin Jiangnian smiled and said, "But didn't you come here on your own initiative?"

After being reminded by Lin Jiangnian, Jinxiu looked around and realized...it seemed that she really came to him on her own initiative?
Jinxiu was angry with An Ning before, so she wanted to come to His Highness to "interrogate" him.

Only now did she realize that it was already late at night, very late, and there was no one outside! She had come to His Highness's room alone in the middle of the night, alone with a man and a woman, and had taken the initiative to throw herself into his arms... Wasn't this like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?

Thinking of this, Jinxiu's face turned red, and she said in a panic: "I, I didn't..."

Jinxiu struggled to break free from Lin Jiangnian's arms, but not only did she fail, but her body rubbed against Lin Jiangnian's, which aroused Lin Jiangnian's interest even more.

The next second, as if she realized something, Jinxiu's delicate body stiffened and her face turned red instantly.

"Your Highness, you...are a pervert!"

Jinxiu's face was burning: "I, I came to see you for something serious... Your Highness, please be serious!"

"What a coincidence. I also happen to have something important to discuss with you, Miss Jinxiu." Lin Jiangnian looked at the shy woman in his arms who was trying to run away.

"Wha, what's the matter?"

"I just came back from outside and was about to take a bath..."

Lin Jiangnian looked at the beauty in his arms with a smile: "Miss Jinxiu, you came just in time. Can you rub my back?"

"Back rub?!"

Jinxiu's almond-shaped eyes widened and her face turned red with embarrassment.

Let her rub your back?

Is this a proper back rub?!

Jinxiu didn't believe it at all.

The familiar look in His Highness' eyes simply showed that he wanted to strip her naked and eat her up...

She won't be fooled!
"I, I won't..."

Jinxiu refused immediately.

"No? Haven't you ever rubbed your princess' back?"

"No, no..." Jinxiu blushed and refused to admit it.

"It's okay, I'll teach you."

"I can't learn..."

"That's fine. I will teach you step by step. I guarantee that Miss Jinxiu will learn it right away."

"I, I don't want to learn...ah..."

Without waiting for Jinxiu to continue to refuse, Lin Jiangnian suddenly bent down and picked up Jinxiu by the waist.

Jinxiu's face turned red, as if she had anticipated something.

"No, don't...put me down!"

But Lin Jiangnian ignored Jinxiu's struggle and strode out of the room.

How could I let it go when it came to my doorstep so late at night?
You came at the right time!
