CHAPTER 109: CHAPTER 107: THIS TROUBLESOME GUY

Nangong Jue smiled slightly, his tone gentle, "Wanyue, don’t be nervous. I know Ninth Prince’s temper. I am his elder brother, so naturally, I won’t mind at all."

Nangong Mo frowned as he looked at the girl standing in front of him, his beautiful eyes reflecting flickering light.

Did that silly girl think that with her back turned to him, he couldn’t see her smiling at the Crown Prince?

Ha! Childish!

In the next moment, Nangong Mo shifted his wheelchair to a different position, his expression extremely unfriendly as he faced Nangong Jue.

"Crown Prince, don’t be so self-indulgent. Whether you mind or not is none of my concern."

Yun Ran: "..."

[This lousy teammate!]

Yun Ran extended a hand and dragged his wheelchair behind her, giving Nangong Jue an awkward laugh, "He’s just joking, don’t take him seriously."

"I..."

"I am not joking."

Yun Ran, Nangong Jue: "..."

"Ninth Prince, you’re married now, yet your temper is still exactly like it was when you were a child, not a bit has changed."

Nangong Jue’s lips pulled into a smile, showing his calm and friendly older brother persona.

Nangong Mo once again rotated his wheelchair out, raising his brows coldly as he faced Nangong Jue.

"Crown Prince, are you reminiscing about when you were beaten so badly you were crying for your parents while searching for your teeth on the ground?"

Nangong Jue: "..."

Seeing Nangong Jue’s smile freeze on his face, Yun Ran’s eyelid twitched, quickly pulling Nangong Mo back again.

To prevent him from running out again and making a scene, she kept a tight grip on the wheelchair, not daring to let go.

"Crown Prince, he accidentally got hit on the head by a bird’s nest in the morning under a tree, so maybe he’s not quite clear-headed now and hence babbling nonsense. Don’t take offense."

[This guy who never lets anyone rest easy! Does he have any idea of the current situation?]

[Nangong Jue, that cunning guy with his charming appearance, who knows what strength he’s hiding? If fighting starts...]

[Right now, even the two of us together might not be able to beat him! And you still dare provoke him? Aren’t you afraid of being beaten to death?]

Nangong Mo had originally intended to go out and provoke a bit more, but his movements halted upon hearing Yun Ran’s words, and his eyes showed some ripples.

Was the girl always dragging him behind her not because she found him an obstacle to her conversation with the Crown Prince, but because she was... protecting him?!

How could he not know Nangong Jue’s background?

He certainly didn’t need protection.

However...

Whatever crossed his mind, the man’s dark face suddenly melted away like ice, akin to a spring breeze passing, blossoming with thousands of peach flowers.

He obediently sat, staying behind Yun Ran.

Listening to the girl talk nonsense without blinking, saying his brain got hit by a bird’s nest and asking the Crown Prince not to hold it against him, courteously inviting the Crown Prince to dine, and personally seeing the Crown Prince to the door.

After Yun Ran sent the Crown Prince off, she pondered how she had just made up stories about him. With that man’s rogue and awkward nature, he must be full of emotions right now, like a dark-faced deity, using a frosty stare to annihilate her!

Unexpectedly, the scene she came upon was:

The man propped his elbow on the armrest of the chair, balancing his chin with adjusted fingers, slightly leaning sideways, lips slightly raised, wearing a smile as fresh as a spring breeze, seemingly savoring something.

Yun Ran was stunned, blinking her eyes.

What a beautiful smile! Like a fallen demon in the mortal world!

But... Somehow the smile seemed a bit silly...

When he saw her return, the man lifted his gaze, curled his lips into a faint smile, "Lin Wanyue, are you not angry with me anymore?"

"Who says so? I’m still mad!"

"If you dare cross the line tonight, I will twist off your dog head!"

Nangong Mo: "..."

Just now wasn’t she nervously protecting him behind her, fearing that the Crown Prince would beat him to death, and now...
