Shengjing Noble

Chapter 288: Innocence and Ignorance

Fu Wuyang glanced at Su Lanyin coldly. She understood what he meant and immediately stepped forward to tell her the whole story.

Of course, she also deleted some things that should be concealed.

After all, matters concerning Crown Prince Fu Mingheng cannot be revealed rashly. It's certainly not that they don't trust Kang Chenxi, but the more they know, the more danger there is, and they don't want to implicate the Kang family.

Right now, as long as I can return to Beijing smoothly, everything will be solved.

Hearing this, Kang Chenxi nodded quickly and said, "I see. Don't worry, Your Majesty. Recently, a caravan of the Kang family is heading to Shengjing, and I'm also going to go with them to check the accounts. You can go with me and blend in with the caravan. You will never be discovered by the assassins."

"There is one more thing. My mother and brother are taking the official road to Shengjing. Although I used a trick to temporarily divert the assassin, I am still worried that they will encounter danger on the way..."

Kang Chenxi understood what Su Lanyin meant before she finished speaking and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, Miss Cuizhu. I will send some secret letters by carrier pigeon to inform some friends in the martial arts world and ask them to escort your mother and brother back to Shengjing."

Hearing this, she almost knelt down to him with gratitude in her eyes, and quickly bowed to thank him: "Thank you, Mr. Kang!"

Seeing this, Kang Chenxi quickly reached out and lifted her arm, his eyes full of joy: "Hey, Miss Cuizhu, why are you being so polite to me? You are the prince's maid, and you will be my sister in the future. If you have any problems, just tell me, and I promise to do it for you clearly!"

Su Lanyin smiled and nodded, then explained a little embarrassedly: "It was hard to explain clearly in front of so many people just now. Actually, my name is not Cuizhu, but Su Lanyin."

"Su Lanyin? It really sounds better than Cuizhu."

Kang Chenxi praised her repeatedly, which made her blush and she lowered her head shyly: "No, Master Kang, you are too kind."

"How could I have said that? Miss Su is as beautiful as her name suggests..."

Seeing that he was praising Su Lanyin endlessly and that his "claw" was still clinging to Su Lanyin's arm and refused to let go, Fu Wuyang simply kicked him away.

"Alright! Stop dawdling. I'm sleepy and you can go out now!"

Kang Chenxi was kicked out before he could chat with the beautiful woman enough. By the time he reacted, the door behind him was slammed shut.

"Eh……"

He was somewhat unwilling to accept it, but he opened his mouth and didn't dare to open the door to go in, so he had to give up.

But when he thought of Su Lanyin's beautiful little face, he felt unsatisfied.

It must be said that he has seen countless women, but this is the first time he has seen such a beautiful woman. Even though she is dressed simply, her beauty does not diminish at all.

……

inside the room.

Su Lanyin looked at the only bed and suddenly remembered something. She turned around and tried to chase after him, still shouting.

"Master Kang, can you arrange another room..."

But as soon as her hand touched the door handle, Fu Wuyang pulled her into his arms, then spun her around and pressed her against the wall.

He leaned closer, his lips almost touching the tip of her small, white nose, startling her so much that she was momentarily speechless and looked at him in surprise.

Fu Wuyang leaned his elbows against the wall and held her whole body in his arms, leaving no room for her to escape.

Being so close to each other, even their breathing became entangled. The atmosphere instantly heated up, and no matter how slow Su Lanyin was, she couldn't help blushing and her heart beating fast.

The man lowered his eyebrows and stared at her with cold eyes, almost without blinking, making her feel so embarrassed and restrained that she didn't even dare to express her feelings.

Su Lanyin moved her body uncomfortably, but found that she couldn't break free. She frowned and asked, "My Lord, what are you doing?"

Fu Wuyang curled his lips, his tone full of coercion: "Did you have a good chat with him?"

She just felt confused. Is this man sick? Listening to his tone, why does he seem angry?

Did she just say something wrong?

"Your Highness, did I reveal too much that I shouldn't have just said?" she asked nervously.

Fu Wuyang narrowed his eyes, but did not deny it. Instead, he asked, "What do you think?"

This made Su Lanyin even more certain that she had said too much.

"I didn't mean to say that. I thought you told me to say it, and I didn't reveal the Crown Prince's affairs. I have done my best to cover it up... Your Majesty, you won't blame me, right?"

She thought, why didn't you stop me when I was talking just now? Now that I've finished talking, you're here to blame me, are you sick?

Fu Wuyang was not doing this because of this. After all, Kang Chenxi was his ally and he was also protecting the Kang family. When Mr. Kang passed away in the future, Kang Chenxi would use his power to take back the divided assets and completely control the Kang family.

Therefore, even if she really told the prince about it, there would be nothing wrong with it.

Kang Chenxi would not betray him.

The reason why he was unhappy was that the two of them had just been smiling and talking to each other, which made him feel angry.

Thinking of this, Fu Wuyang was shocked by himself, and his deep peach blossom eyes widened instantly.

He couldn't believe that he was angry because of a woman?

It was just that she spoke a few more words to Kang Chenxi, why was he unhappy?

He was very confused and was anxious to find a reason.

Kang Chenxi is a playboy by nature and has countless women around him. Such a scoundrel must have bad intentions, but the silly girl Su Lanyin can't see it and even talks to him with a smile!

He was just angry that she had no sense of vigilance and would be easily cheated by scumbags in the future!

Yes, he was just angry at her for being stupid and having no brains!

If it weren't for Jinyan, he wouldn't be angry with her!

How could such a stupid woman protect his adopted daughter?

Fu Wuyang seemed to have found a legitimate reason. He pinched Su Lanyin's chin and asked coldly, "Are you stupid?"

"what?"

Su Lanyin was confused by his nonsensical question, her eyes full of puzzlement.

"What? Do you know who Kang Chenxi is? You talked so much to him, aren't you afraid of being sold out and helping others count money?"

"Isn't he your good friend?" Su Lanyin asked.

Fu Wuyang was speechless: "Even if he is my good friend, what does that have to do with you? He is a playboy and likes to deceive innocent girls like you, do you know that?"

"Ah? I...I don't know..."

She thought, should I know? What does it have to do with me?

"Huh, you idiot, you don't really think he likes you?" he said sarcastically.

These words were extremely unpleasant to hear, and Su Lanyin wanted to push him away angrily.

"What does your Majesty mean by this?"

"I am just kindly reminding you to stay away from him, so as not to fall into the fire pit. I will not rescue you when the time comes!"

"Ha~" She was so angry that she laughed.

This damn man is simply looking down on her!

Is it possible that in his eyes, I am just like Su Lanxin, the kind of fool who can't walk when she sees a man?

She retorted angrily: "Thank you for your kind reminder, Your Highness, but I think Mr. Kang is handsome and gentle, very good, not like a fire pit at all!"
