Chapter 242 - Troubled
Everyone in the courtyard went out, while Yun Qianyu followed Xiao Jiuyuan. She looked up at him and noticed that he was in a good mood. Since Xiao Jiuyuan was in a good mood, Yun Qianyu felt slightly annoyed. Without looking behind her, she knew that everyone would be looking at her.
She had never liked getting attention from anyone. Now that Xiao Jiuyuan was somewhat leading her along, many people behind them couldn’t help looking at them curiously.
Yun Qianyu was in a bad mood. Seeing Xiao Jiuyuan in a good mood, she was not too happy about it. In a gentle tone, Yun Qianyu suddenly said, “Your Highness, when I saw you earlier, you seemed to be in a terrible mood. Did something happen to your Highness?”
Yun Qianyu’s words instantly filled Xiao Jiuyuan’s heart with anger and fresh memories of what had happened last night flooded his mind. If people knew about it, he would surely become a laughing stock.
Immediately, his face darkened.
At the same time, his eyes narrowed slightly and he looked at Yun Qianyu. ‘Why does it feel like this woman knows something about last night?’
‘That’s impossible, how could this woman know what happened to me last night?’
With a faint sinister smile, Xiao Jiuyuan looked at Yun Qianyu and said, “You wish something happened to this Prince?”
In a calm and casual tone, Yun Qianyu said, “Your Highness, you’re thinking too much into it. How could I think like that?”
‘Of course I know something has happened to you.’ Yun Qianyu thought in her heart but didn’t show any expression on her face. She looked at Xiao Jiuyuan and said, “Your Highness, having a negative mind is a bad thing. With such a mindset, you would perceive everyone around you to be evil. If you’re like that, you’ll become sick.”
After Yun Qianyu said that, Xiao Jiuyuan’s face darkened and he said, “Are you saying I’m a negative person?”
Yun Qianyu shrugged her shoulders and seriously said, “No, I’m just giving your Highness an example. Don’t take it so personally.”
After saying that, she walked ahead and left Xiao Jiuyuan behind.
Xiao Jiuyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Yun Qianyu coldly. ‘Why do I feel that this woman is getting more and more arrogant? Would she climb onto my head after a while longer?’
‘Guess I really need to have a little one on one with her.’
Thinking about this, Xiao Jiuyuan suddenly thought about the mysterious woman from the previous night. He couldn’t wait to find the woman that had mugged him.
From behind them, the crown prince looked at Xiao Jiuyuan curiously, while Xiao Tianyi looked at him with a pale face.
The crowd followed the princes out of the courtyard all the way to Glory Crane Hall to greet the empress.
At the back of the crowd, Xiao Yechen had a gloomy face. In fact, Xiao Yechen was troubled by the fact that Xiao Jiuyuan seemed to be paying more and more attention to Yun Qianyu. Not only was he caring more about her, but he was also protecting her. Although he bullied her sometimes, he only allowed himself to bully Feather.
Not many people understood Xiao Jiuyuan, but Xiao Yechen knew him well. In fact, Xiao Jiuyuan was not a person who tolerated other people’s nonsense.
