Chapter 109 Meeting in a Dream
"Wouldn't you be sad if I really married someone else?"

A deep, pleasant voice rang out, seemingly with a hint of seduction.

Qin Su paused for a moment. "Alright, alright, so you're going to go straight for the ball now, huh?"
Although she wasn't sure why he asked that question, she was certain he had ill intentions.

She bit her lip, looking up at him with some embarrassment: "Why are you saying these things again..."

Chu Junyan: Again?
The young girl lowered her head and sighed, her tone tinged with helplessness: "You know perfectly well that before I entered the palace, my stepmother was already discussing my marriage. By the time I went back, it should be settled by now."

For a moment, His Highness the Crown Prince truly felt out of place in this world, and wanted to summon Eunuch Li to get some answers:

He only disappeared for half a month, not a year or two, right?

How dare you bring a woman who's already engaged to the Eastern Palace? Do you really have a death wish?

Although the man didn't speak, his speechlessness was evident from the wildly fluctuating numbers.

Qin Su subtly curved her lips into a smile, then looked up and gently comforted him, "It's okay. Even if you get married, we'll still be good friends. I won't forget you."

Chu Junyan found these words strange, strange in a way he couldn't describe.

But looking into the girl's pure and innocent eyes, it seemed as if she didn't realize that her words had any ambiguity.

He said that anything that guy could like wouldn't be anything good.

Finally, unable to contain his disgust any longer, he told him to go back: "I have things to do, you can go back now."

Qin Su was taken aback: "But it's almost time to eat..."

Chu Junyan: "It's alright, I can manage on my own."

Qin Su froze, looking at him as if he wanted to say something. But Li Gonggong, who sensed that His Highness the Crown Prince had reached his limit of patience, hurriedly stepped forward and took Qin Su away: "Miss Qin, let's go."

Qin Su could only nod, but even so, she still said, "I feel like you're a little different than usual."

With just a simple sentence, the palace servants around him were on high alert, and Eunuch Li was sweating profusely.

He looked at His Highness the Crown Prince with almost pleading eyes: Your Highness, please bear with it a little longer.

Fortunately, the little girl turned and left before the prince could say anything strange.

However, Eunuch Li did not feel relieved; instead, he became even more melancholy.

His Highness the Crown Prince has always disliked the Seventh Prince's taste. He thought the Seventh Prince would be different when it came to women, but... he still dislikes him just the same.

Eunuch Li wanted to sigh deeply, but fearing Qin Su would see, he could only hold back.

"Eunuch Li, does he dislike me?"

Qin Su paused, stopping on the path, her beautiful face showing a hint of melancholy.

Eunuch Li instinctively retorted, "Of course not! How could His Highness dislike Miss Qin? He likes... no, he's just too tired and wants to rest. Please don't misunderstand him."

Damn it, the worst-case scenario has still happened. What if Miss Qin is heartbroken over the Seventh Prince and refuses to take care of him anymore?
The old eunuch's earnest assurances failed to bring back the girl's youthful face. She shook her head, revealing a fragile and helpless smile: "It's alright, I understand. Everyone does it this way. I'm used to it..."

Eunuch Li looked bewildered: What's wrong with everyone? How did they get used to it?

But the young girl didn't answer him and had already walked away, leaving the old eunuch, who was caught in the middle, bewildered in the wind.
-
[Host, you've completely baffled Eunuch Li with just a few words.]

The system, which had been closely monitoring the situation, spoke up with schadenfreude.

Qin Su didn't react much; she was looking at the data monitored that day.

Once again, it's confirmed that the "dominant personality" is really difficult to deal with.

"Miss Qin, this servant has come to bring you tea."

The palace maid's voice rang out, and Qin Su nodded, indicating that she could put it down.

To outsiders, she was simply looking down at a book, nothing special. Until, Qin Su felt a little thirsty and reached for the cup of tea—

[Host, be careful! The water is poisonous!]

Qin Su's fingertips trembled, and the teacup rolled off the table, spilling onto the ground and shattering into pieces.

Who played it?

The system remained silent for a long time.

The palace servants outside heard the noise and came in first.

"Miss Qin, what's wrong? Are you alright?"

The palace maid looked tense, but calmed down after seeing that it was just a teacup on the ground: "Please move aside, don't get hurt by the porcelain shards, I'll clean it up."

Qin Su took a step back. She thought she probably knew who had arranged the assassination attempt.
-
The commotion quickly reached the ears of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Until the girl "luckily" escaped death once again, the young man's handsome face remained calm: "She is quite difficult to kill."

Eunuch Li was kneeling on the ground; the person had already left a while ago.

But his master seemed determined not to let him off the hook: "Tell me, if he finds out the woman he loves died in the palace, will he go mad?"

Eunuch Li: He doesn't know if he'll go crazy, but he really is on the verge of it!
"Your Highness, please forgive my bluntness, but Miss Qin is delicate and frail, and not favored by her family, so she is not really a threat. If we could control her, perhaps we could..."

"Not a threat?"

His Highness the Crown Prince interrupted him lazily: "If he can make him break his rules for her time and time again, then this isn't a threat. What is a threat?"

When Eunuch Li thought of the Seventh Prince's seemingly ordinary attitude towards Miss Qin, he was at a loss for words.

"Alright, enough is enough. Since she's escaped twice, then the third time..."

the third time……

Eunuch Li's heart sank, fearing that His Highness the Crown Prince's next words would be, "If you can't kill him the third time, then you'll all be buried with him."

His breathing almost stopped.

"Let's let her off the hook this time."

"Your Highness is wise!" Eunuch Li was drenched in sweat and almost kowtowed in gratitude.

Even though Qin Su wasn't his master, he was more afraid of her getting into trouble than anyone else.
-
During dinner, Qin Suruo was invited to dine with His Highness the Crown Prince, as usual.

She walked casually to the man's side, her beautiful eyes darting around: "Did you eat a proper lunch?"

His words of concern made Chu Junyan pause slightly as he picked up his chopsticks, then he looked up at the girl and asked, "What do you think?"

Qin Su shook her head: "I don't know."

Despite saying that, the person still sat down next to him.

The two then began a new round of acting duels.

If she hadn't known the truth, who would have imagined that not long ago, she almost died at his hands again?
-
"Welcome to the Psychological Counseling Room. My surname is Su, and you can call me Dr. Su. I am your personal psychologist."

Before Chu Junyan could get used to the unusual environment, he saw the high-backed chair behind the desk opposite him slowly turn around, revealing a beautiful woman with long hair reaching her waist and bright eyes and white teeth.

She was wearing a red halter dress he had never seen before, revealing slender arms and skin as white as snow and porcelain, dazzlingly white.

While His Highness the Crown Prince was lost in thought, the system couldn't help but speak up: [Host, you look so beautiful today! Why doesn't the Tyrant receive the same treatment?]

Qin Su's red lips curved slightly, her eyes sparkling: "What do you think?"
