"My dear wife, who do you think wants to harm me?"

Nan Jinming patted the back of Chu Xiaoran's hand gently, soothing him softly.

When Chu Xiaoran calmed down a little, she helped him sit on the couch and brought him a bowl of steaming porridge.

Nan Jinming was seen wearing a light yellow velvet long skirt, looking graceful and walking lightly.

She slowly walked to Chu Xiaoran, stretched out her slender hand, and gently placed the blue and white porcelain bowl in front of Chu Xiaoran.

At this moment, Chu Xiaoran still had lingering fears in his heart. Recalling the thrilling scene just now, he couldn't help but feel scared.

If Nan Jinming had not arrived in time, I would probably have lost my life.

The sharp dagger that stabbed the assassin had been wiped clean of blood by Nan Jinming and put into the scabbard.

"When Boxi comes back, everything will be revealed."

When Chu Xiaoran heard Nan Jinming mention Yan Boxi, he suddenly woke up from his dream. He looked up and looked around, only to find that Yan Boxi had disappeared.

I think the incident happened so suddenly and I was frightened that I didn't notice when he left.

Chu Xiaoran quietly looked at the bowl of porridge in front of him which was still warm, feeling mixed emotions.

This bowl of porridge is not just ordinary food, it also carries Nan Jinming's meticulous care and love for him.

"You did it?"

Chu Xiaoran's face was full of surprise, and he looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.

"Well, I got up early today, and thinking that I haven't had breakfast with you for a long time, I cooked some myself."

The person who spoke smiled and gently handed a bowl of steaming porridge to Chu Xiaoran.

Chu Xiaoran took the bowl and slowly drank the porridge.

He savored every bite and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: It tastes so good.

"Feeling better?" Nan Jinming asked softly.

"Yeah." Chu Xiaoran nodded slightly, a smile appeared on his face, indicating that he was fine.

At this time, Nan Jinming quietly walked to the window and stared at the direction where the assassin had just broken in.

She thought to herself: This assassin is so familiar with the terrain here. If someone hadn't deliberately leaked our residence, how could he have found this place so accurately?

Just as Nan Jinming was thinking, Qingyu came hurriedly.

When he saw Chu Xiao, who was pale and sitting obediently on the couch drinking porridge, his heart ached.

"Your Highness, are you okay? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have slept in this morning. I should have come earlier to serve you. I just heard that an assassin broke into the mansion. I really deserve to die!"

Qingyu said while crying as she knelt down at Chu Xiaoran's feet.

"It's okay, I'm not injured, don't blame yourself."

Chu Xiaoran hurriedly comforted him.

Qingyu stood up, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and sobbed continuously.

"Princess, you don't know how scared I was just now. Fortunately, you are fine. If anything happened to you, I would not be able to survive."

Nan Jinming looked at Qingyu sharply, "The assassination has not been investigated yet, this is not the time to cry. You go down first, I will stay here with the princess."

Qingyu stopped crying, lowered her head and walked out.

Only Nan Jinming and Chu Xiaoran were left in the room.

"My dear wife, why are you so cold to Qingyu? Are you suspicious of her?"

Chu Xiaoran spoke first, breaking the silence.

"She came from the palace after all. It seems we have to find a time to clean up the Princess's Mansion."

Nan Jinming walked over to Chu Xiaoran and sat down, "You still have to let Bo Xi stay by your side."

Chu Xiaoran shook his head gently, "It's okay. Since they failed this time, the mastermind behind the scenes will naturally re-plan and will make another move only after coming up with a foolproof plan."

Nan Jinming frowned slightly, "I will send more people to ensure your safety."

Chu Xiaoran nodded and replied, "I feel at ease with you by my side."

"Don't worry, with me here, no one can touch you."

Nan Jinming felt the trembling body of the person in his arms. He must have been frightened by the scene just now.

Chu Xiaoran buried his head in Nan Jinming's arms, with an inexplicable smile on his lips, as if everything was becoming more and more interesting.

"When everything here is over, I will take you back to Ye Country. Mother and father have not met their son-in-law yet."

Nan Jinming held Chu Xiaoran in her arms, imagining that as long as they were together in the future, they would be able to live a happy life.

After living a new life, Nan Jinming had no other thoughts. All she wanted was to be able to stay with the one she loved forever.

Chu Xiaoran hugged Nan Jinming back. He knew that she had been very tired, so she wanted to escape and that was why she had been hiding for so many years. However, he would never allow anyone to destroy their current situation.

"Okay, it's all at your discretion."

"My father is a very kind man, and he will certainly like you."
