Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

Between the trees and the lake.

The sword-holding girl froze in place, with her back to Lin Jiangnian, her bare hands tightly grasping the scabbard, her head lowered, not daring to look back.

Under her black hair, there was a tender face covered with blush, and a pair of clear and beautiful eyes that could not stop the shame and fear.

At this moment, the tension reached its peak.

Behind him, when he saw An Ning suddenly stop, Lin Jiangnian immediately knew that the "threat" had taken effect.

Sure enough, this little girl was very thin-skinned!

She didn't dare to let anyone know about what happened last night, especially the eldest princess.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian was somewhat amused.

It was obviously her who was taken advantage of last night, and she was the one who suffered. But her reaction, why did it seem as if she had done something wrong?

If it were someone else, wouldn't they bully her?

Thinking of this in his heart, Lin Jiangnian stepped forward. The closer he got, the more he could feel the nervousness and uneasiness of the sword-holding girl in his sight.

She was cramped and extremely nervous.

Lin Jiangnian could even sense her trembling body and her increasingly rapid breathing.

"You, you... don't come over here!"

Finally, just as Lin Jiangnian was about to walk behind An Ning, An Ning seemed to finally muster up the courage to refuse.

However, her voice was very soft, with a few tremors, as if she was frightened, like an innocent girl begging for mercy in panic when she was about to be "violated".

Fear, helplessness, uneasiness...

Such a pitiful look, coupled with her tone at this time, the image of an innocent and pitiful girl, is more likely to arouse the bad guys' "desire to invade"!

Lin Jiangnian stopped and did not move forward.

He was worried about irritating this timid girl to avoid any accidents... After all, An Ning was not as weak as she seemed.

She killed people quickly!

Lin Jiangnian glanced at An Ning, who was facing away from him, holding the sword tightly in her hand... It seemed that at this time, only the sword in her hand could bring her a little sense of security.

"An Ning."

Lin Jiangnian did not move closer. He looked at the girl's cold and uneasy back and sighed, "Are you so afraid of me?"

An Ning, who was facing away from Lin Jiangnian, lowered her head and remained silent.

"Okay, I won't go over. Don't be afraid!"

Lin Jiangnian said as he took two steps back: "Is this okay? I'll stay away from you."

His tone was like coaxing a child.

An Ning, whose mind was blank, breathing rapidly, heartbeats throbbing, and thoughts were confused and nervous, did not look back, but could feel that Lin Jiangnian did take two steps back.

She was startled, and the nervousness in her heart suddenly weakened a lot.

However, as if she recalled what happened last night, her face was red, and she lowered her head and still didn't say anything.

"Why are you here alone?"

Lin Jiangnian considered his words and tried to communicate with this timid girl.

But no matter what Lin Jiangnian said, An Ning always lowered her head and said nothing.

Like a little girl who can't speak.

This made Lin Jiangnian helpless.

However, it was not completely ineffective. An Ning remained silent after Lin Jiangnian tried to talk in a gentle tone. But he could vaguely feel that her initial vigilance and tension had dissipated a lot.

"Your sister has been looking for you just now, and she is also worried about you..."

Lin Jiangnian opened his mouth and was about to continue to say something, but suddenly heard An Ning speak.

The voice was very light, as if she was refuting something.

"She is not my sister."

The voice was so soft that Lin Jiangnian almost couldn't hear it clearly. After a moment of stunned reaction.

"What?"

An Ning pursed her lips and stopped talking again.

And Lin Jiangnian looked at the cold little maid in front of him, and he was more and more amused.

She really looks like a child throwing a tantrum!

But don't say it, they are sisters, and in some ways she is the same as Jinxiu.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian asked: "Are you still angry with your sister?"

"She is not my sister!"

An Ning spoke again, this time her voice was much louder, and there seemed to be a little more dissatisfaction in her tone.

At this time, Lin Jiangnian gradually figured out something...

An Ning's words should mean...Jinxiu is not the elder sister, she is the elder sister?

"Then..."

Lin Jiangnian tried to speak: "Are you still angry with your sister?"

This time, An Ning did not speak again to refute.

Obviously, she agreed.

"..."

Lin Jiangnian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This pair of twin sisters really love and hate each other!

At this time, they are still arguing about childish things like who is the elder sister. However, this also shows that the relationship between the two sisters is very good to some extent.

Seeing that An Ning seemed to be calmer and no longer vigilant against him, Lin Jiangnian took two steps forward tentatively.

Seeing that An Ning did not react, he took two steps closer.

When she was only two or three steps away from An Ning, the breeze blew, and she could vaguely smell the faint fragrance of the sword-holding girl in the shade of the trees, An Ning, who was still in a daze, finally woke up from her dream.

When she realized that Lin Jiangnian suddenly approached, she instinctively became alert again, her body trembled slightly, and she clenched the sword in her hand.

But other than that, she did not make any other movements. She just kept her body tense, with her back to Lin Jiangnian.

And Lin Jiangnian who appeared behind her also seemed to be silent and motionless.

Finally, An Ning was the first to lose her patience.

Lin Jiangnian stood behind her like this, making her feel uncomfortable like a thorn in the back, her whole body was numb, and her hair stood up.

She was stiff all over, and tentatively turned her head, and she just met Lin Jiangnian's sight.

A young and handsome face appeared in her sight, looking at her with a gentle look, a warm and gentle smile.

His eyes were very clear, without any impurities, and there was no look that made her uncomfortable as she imagined. So much so that at this moment, An Ning even forgot the tension and shyness in her heart.

An Ning looked stunned, and just stared at Lin Jiangnian like this, a little dazed.

Until a moment later, she finally came back to her senses, and a blushing emotion suddenly emerged. She turned around again in a hurry and panic, avoiding Lin Jiangnian's gaze.

"Am I really that scary?"

Lin Jiangnian's voice sounded again from behind An Ning, and the voice was close.

An Ning could clearly feel that there was a pair of eyes staring at her from behind, staring at her, staring at her so hard that she couldn't adapt.

She lowered her head, almost burying it in her chest.

She nodded subconsciously, and then shook her head quickly.

"What's your answer? Are you afraid or not?"

As he spoke, Lin Jiangnian had already walked to An Ning's side. He didn't get too close to avoid arousing the girl's emotions.

But even so, when An Ning noticed Lin Jiangnian's appearance beside her, her whole body was stiff.

Her head seemed to be completely unable to think, and was completely stunned.

"Afraid..."

After a long while, a word finally came out of An Ning's mouth.

"Why are you afraid of me?"

Lin Jiangnian asked again.

An Ning didn't answer, but buried her head lower.

Why was she afraid?

She couldn't tell the reason herself, but every time she saw His Highness, she would instinctively feel a sense of fear.

Obviously, she shouldn't be afraid?

"Do I look scary?" Lin Jiangnian asked.

An Ning didn't say anything, just shook her head.

"Then why are you afraid of me?"

An Ning was silent for a long time, still not knowing how to answer.

In the end, she could only shake her head.

"You are so timid." Lin Jiangnian sighed with a smile.

An Ning pursed her lips, as if she wanted to refute something, but still said nothing.

"In terms of martial arts, you are much better than me!"

Lin Jiangnian smiled and said, "If I really want to say I am afraid, I should be afraid of you, right?"

An Ning lowered her head and thought.

Afraid of her?

How, how is it possible?

He, he bullied me like that... and now he can appear in front of me as if nothing happened, he is really thick-skinned.

Thinking in her heart, a trace of shame appeared on An Ning's cold and tense little face.

Just as her little head was thinking about it, she heard Lin Jiangnian speak again, with a gentle tone: "Actually, I should apologize to you."

Lin Jiangnian looked at the timid sword-holding girl in front of him, sighed lightly, and said: "I'm sorry for what happened last night, I shouldn't..."

An Ning was in a daze, and suddenly heard Lin Jiangnian suddenly mention what happened last night. A trace of shame suddenly appeared, and the whole person seemed to be stimulated by something.

"No, don't say it..."

An Ning stopped Lin Jiangnian from continuing in a shy tone.

She didn't dare to think about what happened last night, and she didn't want Lin Jiangnian to mention it. She had tried very hard to forget it.

But when Lin Jiangnian mentioned it, An Ning seemed to recall the touch and mood when she was touched last night. She was thin-skinned and wanted to run away immediately.

Lin Jiangnian wanted to continue, but seeing that An Ning didn't want to listen at all, he didn't stimulate this thin-skinned girl anymore.

"Then, are you still angry with me?"

Lin Jiangnian asked tentatively.

He wanted to find out why An Ning was angry today.

An Ning blushed and remained silent.

"It seems that you are still angry with me!"

Seeing this, Lin Jiangnian sighed, his face showing loneliness and regret: "That's right, after all, I did such an excessive thing to Miss An Ning yesterday..."

An Ning blushed, and seeing that Lin Jiangnian was going to continue, her face was shy and anxious.

"No, stop talking!"

She tried to keep a straight face and show a cold and beautiful look that no strangers were allowed to enter. But the blushing shame on her face betrayed her completely.

She even covered her ears directly, with an attitude of "I don't want to hear you continue talking."

Lin Jiangnian stopped talking: "Okay, okay, then I won't say anything... But you have to answer me first, are you still angry with me?"

Facing Lin Jiangnian's burning eyes, An Ning didn't dare to look up, let alone look him in the eye. It was not until a long time later that the sound of a weak fly and mosquito seemed to be heard.

"No..."

"Hmm?"

Lin Jiangnian heard it, but didn't hear it clearly: "What did you say?"

An Ning moved her lips and saw that the prince in front of her was still staring at her persistently, as if he was not going to give up.

An Ning felt an indescribable feeling of shame and anger in her heart. She turned away and avoided Lin Jiangnian's sight like an ostrich.

"No."

This time, Lin Jiangnian heard it clearly.

Not angry?

Lin Jiangnian was somewhat surprised to hear this answer.

She was not angry?

She ran away looking angry last night, but I didn't expect...

"Why?"

Lin Jiangnian continued to look at her, trying to figure out the reason. This little girl was taken advantage of, but she was not angry.

Could it be...

"Last night, you, you didn't mean it..."

An Ning turned her back to Lin Jiangnian, and seemed to have calmed down a lot. Her voice was still very light, and it also carried some indescribable emotions.

His Highness did not mean it last night!

An Ning knew in her heart that His Highness mistook her for Jinxiu.

In An Ning's eyes, she was actually responsible for this matter. Who made her sleep in Jinxiu's bed last night, who made her look exactly like Jinxiu, who made...

For a moment, An Ning felt a little depressed for some reason.

Not very comfortable.

Can't tell why.

"No, don't mention what happened last night..."

"Just, just pretend it didn't happen..."

An Ning's voice was dull and a little cold, as if she was warning Lin Jiangnian. But her voice was very soft and gentle, and the threatening tone was completely without any momentum.

It didn't sound like a threat, but rather like she was discussing with Lin Jiangnian.

This made Lin Jiangnian, the instigator, feel a little guilty... What a good girl!

"Okay, I'll listen to you. If you don't want to mention it, then don't mention it."

Lin Jiangnian agreed and looked at her again: "But I have a condition."

"What, what condition?"

"You are not allowed to hide or be afraid when you see me in the future."

An Ning was stunned. What kind of condition is this?

"Did you hear that?" Lin Jiangnian's voice brought An Ning back to his senses.

"Oh."

An Ning lowered her head and couldn't see the emotions on her face clearly.

"Then turn around now and look at me. Don't hide or be afraid!" Lin Jiangnian's voice sounded again.

An Ning suddenly felt like she was being fooled.

But she finally took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to turn around and look at Lin Jiangnian.

The moment she looked at Lin Jiangnian, she wanted to look away in a panic, but she remembered Lin Jiangnian's "condition" just now, and she just wanted to look away, but she held back.

The face seemed to be painted with a layer of rouge, and the cold face was extremely unnatural. She wanted to avoid him, but she forced herself to look him in the eye, like a girl under duress, with a face full of grievance and pity.

Seeing this scene, Lin Jiangnian's heart skipped a beat, as if something had touched his heartstrings.

The face in front of him was exactly the same as Jinxiu's, but with a completely different temperament, which made Lin Jiangnian feel a strange impulse.

No wonder some people have a special liking for sisters, especially twin sisters...

It's really hard not to be moved!

Who can refuse?

Lin Jiangnian collected his mind and looked at the pitiful face in front of him, and couldn't help laughing: "Look at you, if you don't know, you would think I bullied you?"

An Ning pursed her lips and said nothing, her expression became more aggrieved.

He had bullied me in the first place...

"Okay, I won't embarrass you anymore!"

He was afraid that the girl would really cry, so he brought up the business: "By the way, what's going on between you and Jinxiu?"

"I heard from her that you are angry with her?"

"What happened between you two sisters?"

An Ning, who had originally looked aggrieved, seemed to look even more aggrieved after hearing this.

Her eyes were dim, and at the same time, there was a touch of strange emotion that was hard to describe.

At the same time, there was a hint of anger and anger in her tone.

"She is a liar!"

"Big liar!"
