"Junior sister," Chanmu sighed and was about to try to persuade her when someone suddenly knocked on Xia Younan's door again.

Zhu Li at the door scratched his head, smiling foolishly, looking at Xia Younan who seemed to want to say something but hesitated, as if he was afraid that his next words would make the boss unhappy.

Xia Younan didn't understand, so he asked him, "What's wrong with Zhu Li? What do you want to say with those two rows of big white teeth?"

Zhu Li walked up to her and said cautiously, "Boss, your ex-husband is here to take you home. Do you want to see him or not?"

What? Xia Younan was stunned, and then anger appeared on her face. She shouted angrily: "No, let him go back!"

"The boss!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiong Fei ran over shouting.

"The prince couldn't wait for us to report and broke into the village. We couldn't stop him!"

Xia Younan narrowed his eyes, clenched his fists tightly, and anger burned in his chest.

Lu Xiuyuan, that bastard! He insulted her so much in the capital, and now he broke into her Longtou Village. She really gave him face!

"Let's go!" She stood up and walked out with big strides, "I want to see what that son of a bitch is up to next."

Xia Younan, accompanied by Zhu Lixiong Fei, came to the Juyi Hall, sat on the tiger-skin chair with great dominance, and looked coldly at the man brought by the bandits not far away.

Lu Xiuyuan was dressed in white and looked dusty. He ran towards her as fast as the wind.

His white clothes were stained with dust, and there were traces of tearing at the corners and sleeves. His hair was slightly disheveled, and his face was not as white and clean as before.

He looked so miserable that one could tell at a glance what kind of trouble he had experienced on the road.

Lu Xiuyuan walked hurriedly, his anxious eyes seemed to light up instantly when he saw Xia Younan, and he rushed towards her in ecstasy.

"Younan!"

"Stop!" Without Xia Younan saying anything, Zhu Li and Xiong Fei tactfully stretched out their arms to stop him.

Lu Xiuyuan was forced to stop. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he did not dare to force it anymore. He could only look at his beloved who was so close to him, tears in his eyes.

"Younan, I'm here to take you home!"

He and his wife have been inseparable ever since they met. How could they have been apart for so long?

This separation lasted for two full months. God knows how much he missed her, every moment, every minute, every second. He almost went crazy missing her!

He had long wanted to risk his life to find her, but he was imprisoned in the palace and had no freedom.

Now that the grand plan cannot be implemented, he cannot disobey the order and force his way out, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

In the past two months, he mobilized his own people in the court to constantly intercede for him in front of Lu Shian. Unable to bear the pressure, Lu Shian agreed to release him from the ban five days ago.

As soon as the troops outside the palace withdrew, he immediately rushed towards Lion and Tiger Mountain without any delay.

The capital city was more than ten days' journey away from here. He rode at full speed day and night, eating dry food and sleeping on the horse, and he arrived in five days.

He was now exhausted and his whole body ached, and he wanted to collapse to the ground.

But once I see the person I love, all the tiredness from the journey disappears.

I haven't seen her for two months, and she hasn't changed much.

The only difference was that in the past, her eyes were always mischievous and smiling when she looked at him, but now, she frowned and glared with a cold expression, as if her face was covered with a thin layer of ice, without a trace of emotion.

Come back home?

Xia Younan sneered as if he had heard something funny, and said sarcastically: "Is your Highness drunk? I remember clearly that you drove me away and said you never wanted to see me again.

"Why? It's only been two months. Has the prince lost his memory again?"

Lu Xiuyuan smiled bitterly. Alas, I knew this girl would never calm down.

"Younan, please listen to my explanation. I have my reasons. I treated you like that because..."

"Because of Tang Ran?" Xia Younan interrupted him, sarcastically saying, "Because Tang Ran told you that I was wrong, and you believed her and put such a big dirty hat on my head, isn't it?"

This was something she had experienced personally, and no matter how he argued, she would never forgive him in her life!

"No!" Lu Xiuyuan raised his voice to deny, "Younan, things are not as you see. I was arrested because of Su Yu..."

"That's right. If Su Yu hadn't been arrested, I wouldn't have known your true face."

There was still a cold sneer on Xia Younan's lips.

If it weren't for Su Yu's incident, how could she have thought that the person who had been relying on her for a long time would rather believe another woman than her, the person who had risked her life for him many times.

"Younan, stop interrupting me. Let me finish what I'm saying!" Seeing that she didn't want to listen to his explanation, Lu Xiuyuan became a little anxious, and his sword-like eyebrows were furrowed as if water could drip out.

He reflexively wanted to get closer to her, but was stopped by Zhu Lixiong Fei.

"I don't want to hear your excuses!" Xia Younan also raised his voice and shouted.

"Lu Xiuyuan, we are over. No matter how eloquent you are, I will never forgive you. Besides..."

She paused, a cruel arc appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she said with a vengeful mentality: "It might be a good thing for me to take this opportunity to leave, because I have never liked you!"

Lu Xiuyuan's heart skipped a beat, his expression changed instantly, and he looked at her in disbelief, "You...what did you say? Say it again."

"I have never liked you. I don't have the slightest bit of love for you. Do you understand?"

Xia Younan spoke each word in a louder voice, like a heavy hammer hitting Lu Xiuyuan's heart.

"When you were stupid, I treated you well because I felt guilty and wanted to make up for it. Later, I ate and drank at your house because I had nowhere else to go. I do have feelings for you as a friend, but not as a man and a woman!"

Lu Xiuyuan opened his eyes wide in horror, as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. His Adam's apple rolled and he wanted to say something, but his mouth seemed to be glued shut and he couldn't utter a word.

"What you said...is true?"

It took him a long time to speak, and his voice was trembling violently.

How could this happen? She actually said that she had never liked herself.

But I clearly feel that she has feelings for me, and she is jealous...

Xia Younan felt sorry for him seeing the look on his face when they parted, but when she thought of the expression on his face when they parted, she couldn't help but mind.

Turning her head to the side, she said with a hard heart, "Really, every word I said is true. So, my lord, go back to where you came from and don't bother me anymore."

Lu Xiuyuan felt a dull pain in his heart, and he stared at her with hurt eyes. After a long while, he finally lowered his head helplessly, and said with a slight sob: "Okay... In this case, I won't force you.

"I'm leaving. I won't bother you again, Miss Xia. See you later."

After saying this, he turned away dejectedly, with his head hung and shoulders slumped, his back filled with despair and loneliness.

Xia Younan watched him leave, tears welling up in her eyes. She moved her lips, wanting to say something, but said nothing.

She admitted that she felt sad and heartbroken watching him leave.

But Xia Younan is emotionally obsessed and cannot accept a man who does not trust her and is wrongly accused by another woman.

So what if she was sad? Even if she was heartbroken to death, she would not compromise!

"Boss." Seeing her sadness, Zhu Li and Xiong Fei shouted, frowning, not knowing how to comfort her.

Xia Younan waved his hands and sat there feeling sad.
