Mu Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and the dark robe with delicate patterns allowed her to immediately recognize the identity of the person.

"Your Highness the King of Cold? Why are you here?"

She remembered that she had no contact with His Royal Highness Prince Han in her previous life, but today she met him again and again. She always felt that Prince Han's eyes were unfathomable, as if he could see through her at a glance.

Mu Yan felt a little guilty, wondering if he had noticed what had just happened. Seeing that the man in front of her remained silent, she bravely asked, "King Han?"

Mo Yuche looked at her for a long while, then turned and walked to the candlestick to light the candle. Under the light, the entire palace came into view.

"This is my residence in the other courtyard. Why can't I be here? Princess Pinting broke into my palace late at night. I wonder what she is doing?"

After hearing these words, Mu Yan broke out in a cold sweat and wanted to slip away immediately.

God knows that this is his palace. Everyone knows that you are a loner, but no one would have thought that you would choose such a remote place to live. The whole palace is pitch dark, and there is not even a guard outside the door.

It is said that His Royal Highness the King of Cold is moody. If we really offend him, it will be difficult to deal with.

Those who know the current affairs are handsome.

Mu Yan took a deep breath and collected her thoughts. "Just now, I was feeling bored and went out for a walk. I didn't expect to get lost and saw that the palace gate was open, so I accidentally entered the palace of His Royal Highness Prince Han. Please forgive me."

"My door is open?" A hint of coldness flashed across Mo Yuche's eyes, as dark as the starry sky.

Mu Yan thought to himself, it's over. He spoke too quickly. Wasn't it obvious that he had told him that someone else had broken into his palace? The more he spoke, the more mistakes he made.

"Your Highness Prince Han, you don't believe me? Do you think I'm here to steal something? I just heard a few squeaking sounds, I guess it was a mouse that pushed the door open. I was afraid that the mouse would bite something, so I accidentally entered the prince's palace in a hurry."

Mu Yan tells lies without blushing. Her main trick is to put the blame on others and try to justify herself by saying that she accidentally entered the palace because she had no choice. Believe it or not.

Besides, she really came there by mistake, but the rat was not a real rat, it was pulled out by a person. But now that things have come to this, the man in black can only pretend to be a rat.

After hearing Mu Yan's words, Mo Yuche sneered without saying anything. He turned around and found a chair to sit down, tapping the table lightly with his fingers, as if thinking about whether what she said was true or false.

At this moment, Mu Yan's scalp was numb from being stared at. Her excuse was so bad that an ordinary person would not believe it, let alone King Han. It was obvious that he would not believe it, but the incident happened suddenly and she really couldn't think of a better excuse.

The two looked at each other, and when their gazes met, they quickly looked away. The only sound in the silent palace was the sound of tapping on the table.

The air was filled with an unknown scent that made Mu Yan breathless. In the end, she spoke to break the silence.

"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can just arrest me and interrogate me." Mu Yan looked up at him, his tone neither humble nor arrogant.

Mo Yuche found it very interesting. He didn't like crowds of people, and usually only Han Feng followed him. The others were protecting him secretly, so his palace would make people think that no one was guarding it, but in fact it was surrounded by secret guards.

When someone went in for the first time just now, the secret guards reported to him, but when he saw Mu Yan go in, he did not let the secret guards take action.

Mo Yuche's expression was no longer as cold as before, and there was an unknown smile on the corner of his mouth. He felt that the woman in front of him was becoming more and more interesting, and more and more unpredictable.

"Of course I believe in you, Princess. I would like to thank you for protecting the things in my room for me."

"Your Highness, you are welcome. In that case, I will take my leave first."

Mu Yan did not give Mo Yuche a chance to speak. She bowed to him and then slipped out as if escaping. Tonight she really saw the wolf before entering the tiger's den. As expected, any contact with Mo Xingchen would bring misfortune to herself.

Mo Yuche looked at the figure that slipped away like a rabbit, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

Why are you running so fast? Am I going to eat you again?

Mu Yan didn't care what he thought. She only knew that the farther away from this person the better. This person was unfathomable. The closer she got to him, the easier it would be to expose herself.

When Mu Yan returned, the banquet was over. She walked out of the villa with everyone else. After saying goodbye to Han Bingjie and Lin Shishi at the gate, they all got on the carriage back.

On the way back, Mu Xue was still in the same carriage with Mu Yan, but Mu Wan was missing from the other carriage.

Thinking of Mu Wan, Mu Yan couldn't stop smiling. In this life, she finally experienced what she felt back then. She was even a hundred times more miserable than she was back then. But this was just the beginning.

Mu Wan, keep taking it.

When dealing with enemies, we must put them to death before we stop. We must not be merciful. A single spark can start a prairie fire. We must not give them a chance to breathe.

"Big sister, your performance today was so wonderful. Xue'er really admires you." Mu Xue looked at her gently, her eyes full of admiration. The white jade hairpin on her head was particularly eye-catching, and it matched her outfit today very well.

Mu Yangang had already known from Mu Ning's sour words that this was a reward given to her by Concubine Jing. Concubine Jing's current status was not only due to her beauty, but also her ability to win people's hearts. She knew that Concubine Jing gave this reward to her because she saw that Mu Xue was on good terms with her.

A white jade hairpin meant nothing to Concubine Jing, but to someone of Mu Xue's background, it was a great gift from heaven. It enabled her to always remember Concubine Jing's kindness and help her do things for herself when necessary.

Mu Yan smiled without saying anything. She did feel a little sympathetic towards Mu Xue's experience in her previous life, but Mu Xue always gave her an inexplicable feeling.

Danger!

Yes, it's a dangerous feeling.

It was just like the feeling in her previous life when she was ambushing the enemy on the battlefield, but the enemy was lurking beside her, waiting for an opportunity to strike. The more he came into contact with her, the stronger this feeling became. But when she looked at Mu Xue's innocent and weak face, she felt that she was overthinking.

Because if her second sister had such deep thoughts, she would not have lived so miserably in her previous life. She shook her head and stopped thinking about it. Perhaps what happened today really exhausted her mind. She closed her eyes and rested in the carriage. Seeing this, Mu Xue was tactful and did not disturb her anymore. The carriage soon arrived at the gate of the Mu Mansion.

"Miss, I noticed someone is following us."

As soon as he got off the carriage, Ling Yu whispered in Mu Yan's ear.

Mu Yan gave her a knowing look in return, signaling her not to say anything.

This figure had been following them since they came out of the Royal Villa, and she knew who this person was.
