Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai walked slowly in the dense forest of the hunting ground, followed by a dozen guards.

They were in no hurry to hunt because there were still prey left to be hooked.

The scenery in the dense forest is beautiful. The sunlight shines through the layers of leaves, falling on the tree trunks and the ground, and gently shining on Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai.

Shen Qingyan breathed in the fresh air and felt much more relaxed.

At the same time, not far behind them, another group of people were following closely.

Gu Chenan looked gloomy and asked the person behind him.

"How's things going at the Huai Palace?"

"Your Highness, the Huai Palace is heavily guarded, and our people have not yet sneaked in."

"Useless." Gu Chen'an cursed in a low voice, "How can I carry out my plan if I can't even get people in? Tell them to rescue my father at all costs."

"Yes."

After Gu Chenan gave the order, he stared at the two loving figures in the distance with a cold gaze like stagnant water in a deep pool.

Gu Beihuai, I won't let you have a chance to turn things around this time.

Shen Qingyan, I know you are playing hard to get. Sooner or later, I will make you kneel down and beg me.

After playing for a long time, Shen Qingyan quietly asked Gu Beihuai.

"Your Majesty, did you say the fish has taken the bait?"

Gu Beihuai smiled faintly, "Not only has he taken the bait, he's about to be put into the pot."

When Shen Qingyan heard this, her almond eyes sparkled, "Then, Your Majesty, let's hunt a few more prey today and use them as side dishes."

"Okay, I'll listen to Yan'er."

Gu Chenan waited for a long time and finally saw Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai's horses speed up, so he immediately made a silent gesture.

Do it.

The moment the gesture was made, many men in black and archers suddenly appeared around Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai.

However, before they could make a move, the dozen or so guards had anticipated this and attacked swiftly with deadly moves. Soon, the black-clad assassins were turned into corpses.

……

They never knew until their death why such ordinary-looking guards could kill one person with every move.

Because they were Gu Beihuai's top secret guards in disguise, and they had anticipated this.

In response, Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai did not show any sign of panic, as if they did not see anything and continued to enjoy the scenery along the way.

Before Gu Chenan could even curl the corners of his lips, the person he sent was killed.

His half-smile froze on his face.

He knew that his people might not succeed, but he didn't expect to fail so badly.

Gu Chenan immediately realized that something was wrong.

Gu Beihuai has such a strong master by his side, then the Huai Palace...

not good!

He immediately ordered the people around him, "Quick, go and get everyone who went to the Huai Palace to come back."

However, before that person left, the person he had sent out earlier came hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, something has happened. All the people we sent to the Huai Palace were killed. No one survived."

Gu Chenan was shocked and gritted his teeth in anger.

It turned out that Gu Beihuai had already anticipated what he would do, and he just watched him make a fool of himself like a clown without saying a word!

Gu Chenan was furious at the loss of so many people in vain, and it felt worse than punching cotton.

But every day Gu Tianyan stays in Prince Huai's Mansion, he will be in more danger.

At this moment, Shen Qingyan's silver bell-like laughter came from not far away.

"Your Highness is great. You caught a hare so quickly! Hunting is much faster than waiting for a rabbit."

Then came Gu Beihuai's doting voice.

"That's natural. After all, waiting for something to happen once is just a coincidence. If you keep treating people as fools, then you are a fool."

No matter how Gu Chenan listened, he felt that they were mocking him.

Reluctantly, he rode forward, but the two of them seemed not to see him. Their sweet and warm looks made his eyes hurt a little.

"Your Highness, what should we do next?" asked the servant.

Gu Chenan said coldly: "Since they are already prepared, don't act rashly and keep a close eye on them."

"Yes."

Gu Chenan firmly believed that he could find an opportunity to strike again, so he continued to follow Gu Beihuai and the others.

Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai were not affected at all. During this period, they had hunted a lot of prey, including several plump-looking pheasants and rabbits, two deer and three wild boars.

Shen Qingyan praised Gu Beihuai lavishly, using words like "brave and fearless" and "handsome and elegant" to praise him.

No matter what, her prince is the best.

Gu Beihuai knew that she was deliberately praising him, but he couldn't help but smile, and his mood became cheerful.

The two hunted a few more animals and the atmosphere was very happy and wonderful.

Gu Chenan unconsciously got closer and closer, and Shen Qingyan pretended to be surprised as if she finally saw him.

"Your Highness, why are you here?"

"We have hunted all the prey here. If Your Highness wants to take advantage of the situation, I'm afraid there will be no chance."

Gu Chenan: “…”

Does he look so much like a villain who likes to take advantage of others?

"In your eyes, is this the kind of person I am?"

Shen Qingyan was even more surprised. "Then why has His Highness been following us secretly? If you don't know, you might think that the prince has bad intentions."

"By the way, did you see those black-clad assassins just now? They really overestimated their abilities. Fortunately, my prince's men are better than him."

Gu Chenan looked very unhappy, as if he was ashamed.

It would have been fine if it was anyone else who said that, but the person who mocked him was Shen Qingyan, which left him powerless to refute.

Shen Qingyan blinked and said the most heartbreaking words in the most innocent tone.

"What's wrong with you, Your Highness? Why do you look so unhappy? Did I say something that hurt you?"

"..."

Gu Chenan took a deep breath with a complicated expression.

"Yan'er, you have changed."

Shen Qingyan was speechless. She had been holding it in for a long time and thought she could finally say something, but in the end, all she said was this?

"What does your highness mean by this? How have I changed?"

Gu Chenan looked at her with a hurt expression, "Your temperament has changed a lot since you were with him. You are not as gentle as before."

Shen Qingyan really wanted to slap him. How could a person be so shameless?

"Haha~ Your Highness, have you ever thought that if the prince hadn't protected me, if my personality hadn't changed, I would have been used by someone by now, and I might have been killed without a trace."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Gu Beihuai affectionately and said softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for protecting me."

Gu Beihuai cooperated very well, and said in a soft voice, "You are my wife, I will protect you for the rest of my life, and will never use you for some so-called benefits."

The two of them sang in unison and ridiculed Gu Chenan to pieces.

Gu Chenan felt that he shouldn't have stepped forward.

But he is not willing to give in!

"Yan'er, do you know that you are now close to the abyss? If you are not careful, you will be dragged down and fall. You and I are in love, and I don't want to see you in danger."

Shen Qingyan is about to vomit.
