I just want to live a good life

The first time Su Nuan used the Waving Sleeves Technique on Mu Yunting, she ended in failure. She was a little embarrassed. She retracted her hand and stopped talking, but in her heart she was thinking about how to save Ye Xiaobai.

I don’t know if Chu Qi can accomplish such a difficult task. If he provides cover for me, will his chances of success be higher?

Seeing her sitting there without saying a word, Mu Yunting felt depressed. He wanted to rescue the person because she was still of many use to him, but he didn't want his beloved to beg him for that man.

"Angry?"

Mu Yunting asked Su Nuan.

"what?"

Su Nuan was still thinking about how to delay Prince Guang'an and give Chu Qi a chance to rescue people. Suddenly, she heard Mu Yunting's question. She didn't react and looked at Mu Yunting blankly.

The next moment, Su Nuan realized what Mu Yunting was saying. She was very surprised that Mu Yunting would say such a thing. Others had already put the ladder here, and it would be impolite for her not to step on it.

She put her hand on her belly, a sad look on her face, "How dare I be angry with Your Highness."

The resentful words made Mu Yunting's heart soften.

"In fact, we don't need to rescue Ye Xiaobai. The master behind him is more anxious than us. Maybe he has already rescued him now."

This was a bit false. At this time, the master behind Ye Xiaobai would only hide deeper. Mu Yunting said this just to comfort Su Nuan. Su Nuan naturally thought of this, but she didn't expose it immediately.

"Then Your Highness must keep a close eye on the Guang'an Palace. Maybe you can find out the master behind Xiaobai."

She didn't believe that Mu Yunting's people would arrest people if they found out that the person who went to rescue Xiaobai was hers.

Thinking in her mind, she increased the number of candidates to rescue Ye Xiaobai to two, Liefeng was one of them, and Chu Qi's secret guards might not recognize him, and Liefeng was a sure thing. Then she could kidnap Tracer and rescue someone from Guang'an Palace.

Thinking of this, Su Nuan didn't want to expose Mu Yunting's lie anymore, so she asked in a pretentious manner, "Really?"

Mu Yunting hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Su Nuan's lower abdomen and nodded firmly.

A man's words are lies. Su Nuan complained in her heart, but a smile appeared on her face.

Mu Yunting secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally fooled the man about this matter. He had just confirmed that he was going to be a father. Although he couldn't celebrate it in a big way, it was still okay to celebrate in a small circle.

He walked over, put his arms around Su Nuan, and said softly, "We are happy today, so let's not talk about irrelevant things. Let's think about how to celebrate for the child."

"The baby hasn't been born yet, what's there to celebrate?"

Su Nuan was speechless.

"Then celebrate becoming a father."

"It's not even born yet, what's there to celebrate?"

"Then it's ok to celebrate the good news I got."

"If we're going to celebrate, it's because you confirmed this good news. I hinted to you yesterday, but Miss Xun was there at the time, so I didn't say it explicitly."

Su Nuan just didn't want him to celebrate. She treated her like a fool and lied to him. How careless would she be to ask him to celebrate happily?

Celebrating a piece of good news? It sounded silly enough, and Mu Yunting lost interest.

It was impossible to celebrate because of Su Nuan's suggestion, but the joy in his heart had no place to vent, and he felt uncomfortable. Mu Yunting looked at Su Nuan with resentment.

When Su Nuan was feeling proud, news came from outside that the emperor's favorite daughter, Princess Jingyang, had returned, and the emperor was going to prepare a welcoming banquet for her.

This Princess Jingyang was the one who disliked the scar on Xia Changxiao's face and broke off the engagement.

I heard that she later married a handsome man. The prince consort was also quite talented. Under the influence of the princess's halo, he worked hard, passed the imperial examination, and was sent to Jiangnan to be an official. Princess Jingyang followed her husband after she got married and went to Jiangnan with him. She didn't come back for several years.

The Emperor dotes on his eldest daughter the most, so now that she is back, naturally he has to hold a grand banquet to celebrate, and his Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as her younger brother, must attend.

The emperor was hosting a family banquet, and female relatives were allowed to attend. Although there were two concubines in the prince's mansion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only recognized Concubine Xia, so when he received the news, he brought Su Nuan into the palace without saying a word.

Su Nuan didn't want to go and refused, "Your Highness, we need to drink at the banquet, and I am not suitable to drink now. You should take Concubine Dong with you."

Mu Yunting's face turned a little dark. Not only was he not allowed to celebrate the child's birth, but he was also unwilling to accompany him to the banquet. This was not acceptable.

"No one can make you drink, so just go ahead and don't worry."

Drinking was just an excuse. Su Nuan was eager to get out of Mu Yunting's sight and find someone to discuss rescuing Ye Xiaobai, so she said, "I stayed outside for a long time today and I'm a little tired."

As soon as she said this, she yawned and looked sleepy.

"Then you should get some sleep first. The party will start later anyway."

After saying this, Mu Yunting pushed Su Nuan back onto the couch, then he lay down too, and put his arms around Su Nuan.

In short, don't give Su Nuan the chance to be alone.

How could Su Nuan sleep? She tossed and turned in Mu Yunting's arms. Finally, she couldn't lie still any longer, so she pushed Mu Yunting's arm away and sat up.

"Since we are here to welcome Princess Jingyang, it would be inappropriate for you to go so late. Let's go."

After saying this, he was about to go out in a hurry.

"Don't be so anxious, wait for me to change my clothes."

Mu Yunting stood up with a smile.

Su Nuan looked back at him. His clothes were neat and tidy, but his robe was slightly wrinkled from lying on the couch for a while.

Looking down at herself again, she found that her wrinkles were even more than Mu Yunting's. She couldn't attend a royal banquet like this.

"Then your highness, change your clothes, and I will go change my clothes too."

"Don't go by yourself. Sit here and wait. I'll have someone bring it to you."

"No, no one knows which one I want to wear, so I'll go back and choose it myself."

Mu Yunting seemed to compromise and said, "Okay."

Su Nuan was so happy that she could finally be alone. She was about to leave when she heard Mu Yunting say slowly, "Wait for me for a moment. I'll change my clothes and go back with you."

"No need."

"Yes, help me choose clothes."

As he spoke, Mu Yunting pushed Su Nuan to the front of the wardrobe.

Su Nuan frowned. This man was definitely doing it on purpose today. He just didn't want to find someone to save Ye Xiaobai himself.

I don’t know if Ye Xiaobai can hold on.

"Why are you daydreaming? Are you thinking about which piece of clothing would look good on me?"

A pleasant voice rang in her ears, and Su Nuan sighed softly.

Angry! Worried!

But then he thought, since it was a royal banquet, Prince Guang'an should also attend, and Ye Xiaobai would still be safe if he was not there.

I'll find a chance to test his attitude then.

After figuring this out, Su Nuan really started to help Mu Yunting choose clothes seriously.

"Your Highness will look good in any of them, but this one is the best."

Su Nuan chose a moon-white gown. In fact, the material of the gown was ordinary and the style was not outstanding. There was nothing special about it, except that she had only worn it once.

I heard that Mu Yunting is a germaphobe when it comes to dressing, and he won't wear clothes that have been worn by others, so I'll coax him into putting them on first, and then tell him on the way that I've worn his clothes, as a small punishment for him lying.
