After the prince was reborn, he forced me to marry him and took me into the East Palace

Nan Yuan's eyes widened slightly, and it was unknown what she was thinking.

Xie Luochen stepped forward and helped Nan Yuan up: "Cousin, you should change your clothes first, in case you catch a cold."

Nan Yuan came back to her senses, looked down at her clothes, and knew that she must look very embarrassed.

She nodded: "Thank you for the reminder, cousin."

As soon as Nan Yuan finished speaking, a maid in green came over and said to her, "Miss Nan Yuan, the head aunt asked me to take you to change your clothes."

Hearing this, Nan Yuan did not doubt anything. She just thought that the aunt in charge of the aunt was thoughtful and did things properly. She nodded and said, "Thank you."

"Cousin, go change your clothes first. I'll keep an eye on the ***." Xie Luochen noticed the worry in Nan Yuan's brows and took the initiative to speak.

"Then I'll trouble you, cousin."

Nan Yuan knew that Xie Luochen speaking for her meant that he had also gotten involved in the Lin family's mess. It would be best for him to keep an eye on the *** side now, as she really couldn't spare any time on her side.

Xie Luochen smiled and said, "There's no need to be polite between you and me."

Nan Yuan said no more and turned to leave.

Xie Luochen stood there, his eyes following Nan Yuan's receding figure, his brows slightly furrowed.

-

Nan Yuan followed the maid to a room.

"Miss, please come in. I have already placed the clothes on the table."

Nan Yuan nodded and walked in.

"Squeak-"

The maid closed the door.

Nan Yuan didn't doubt anything, but just walked in, and sure enough, she saw the clothes that the maid mentioned on the table.

But before she could reach out to pick it up, she heard footsteps behind her, and then someone hugged her from behind.

The familiar breath and aggressive smell made Nan Yuan feel uncomfortable.

In just a moment, she understood who the visitor was.

Nan Yuan, ah, Nan Yuan, you are so stupid!

How come you believed everything others said so completely without any precautions? Now you are like a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth.

"What is your Highness the Crown Prince doing?" Nan Yuan asked in a low voice.

The man behind her did not let go. He rested his chin on her shoulder and greedily sniffed the unique fragrance of her hair.

Nan Yuan frowned, "Your Highness, please respect yourself."

Hearing this, Gu Jingheng straightened Nan Yuan's body so that she was facing him.

Nan Yuan raised her head and met those eyes as deep as an ink pool. Her heart couldn't help but tremble.

"If I didn't respect myself, I wouldn't have let you leave half an hour ago."

Nan Yuan blinked twice and tried to look away but was caught by Gu Jingheng: "What are you hiding from?"

She forced herself to calm down and said calmly, "Your Highness is a well-mannered and refined person, and he would not do anything disrespectful. I believe that what happened half an hour ago was just a misunderstanding, and I hope Your Highness will not take it to heart."

Gu Jingheng chuckled, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Nan Yuan was indeed not innocent.

He approached Nan Yuan step by step, and Nan Yuan retreated step by step.

Until Nan Yuan's body hit the table and she could no longer retreat.

When Gu Jingheng came in again, Nan Yuan was so scared that she sat down on the table, her eyes wide open in horror.

He seemed not to see Nan Yuan's eyes. He put his big hand on Nan Yuan's back, and with a little force, Nan Yuan fell into his arms.

Nan Yuan sat on the table, her legs easily spread apart by Gu Jingheng. He supported himself on both sides of Nan Yuan's body with his hands, leaned closer, and his warm breath sprayed on her cheeks.

Nan Yuan was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, for fear that any movement would displease him and he would attack her and kill her, so she had to close her eyes.

She clenched her palms so tightly that she didn't even notice her nails digging into her flesh.

"My medicine is much better than his."

Suddenly, I felt a slight chill on my forehead.

"I don't bring much medicine with me, so I have no medicine to apply on my injured hand." Gu Jingheng's voice was low and magnetic, echoing in the silent room.

Nan Yuan suddenly opened her eyes and found that he was holding a small medicine bottle with ointment in it, and he was concentrating on applying the ointment on himself.

He went through all these moves just to apply medicine on himself?

"You... won't kill me?" Nan Yuan was a little surprised. She thought he would strangle her to death. After all, that's what he did half an hour ago.
