The yandere is too beautiful; the fake heiress sneaks kisses through the window every day.

Jiang Yu frowned at Captain Chen, reluctantly letting go, but still delivered a kick that knocked the man unconscious.

Jiang Mingyue closed her eyes, trying to convince herself that it was all an illusion.

Looking at the unconscious suspect on the ground, Captain Chen frowned. He glanced at Jiang Yu, who remained expressionless, then at Jiang Mingyue, who had her eyes closed and dared not look, and finally said nothing.

Finally, the two bodyguards, A and B, found Jiang Yu hiding in the woods outside the cabin. The moment they saw Jiang Yu, bodyguard B shed tears and touched his neck.

Thank goodness, my head is still intact.

The criminal suspect was taken away by Captain Chen, while Jiang Yu was taken away by Jiang Mingyue.

Before leaving, Jiang Yu fed the crows waiting outside. After they finished eating, the crows flapped their wings and flew away.

Seeing such an amazing scene, Jiang Mingyue couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "You really know how to train birds?"

"It's eagle training," Jiang Yu corrected.

"How do you know all this?" Shouldn't a pampered heiress like her be learning things like music, chess, calligraphy, and painting? How could she have such a unique skill as training eagles?

"I was born to be the crown prince. A ruler must not only be wise and benevolent, but also be skilled in both literature and martial arts. I am naturally intelligent; I learned to train eagles at the age of five," Jiang Yu said with a touch of pride.

Jiang Mingyue... Jiang Mingyue smiles like a garlic bird~

It seems I should find time to take her to see a doctor; this unpredictable illness isn't a good solution.

Jiang Mingyue was driving back to the Jiang family home when Jiang Yu suddenly started giving directions. She thought the other woman had discovered some clues again. After all, although she didn't understand the brain circuits of mentally ill people, her observation skills were indeed very sharp.

So she followed the other person's instructions without asking any questions, and drove diligently until the other person told her to stop.

She peeked outside and saw a familiar place and familiar walls.

Upon seeing the Lu family's gate, Jiang Mingyue felt a bad premonition and slowly turned her head to look at Jiang Yu, who had already gotten out of the car.

Jiang Yu said, "You can go back now."

"And what about you?"

"I'm going to sleep with the Queen."

Jiang Mingyue's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.

Okay, okay, now you really don't treat her like an outsider anymore, huh? You're out "cheating" and you even have her drive you around.

Although Jiang Mingyue was speechless, she couldn't help but ask, "Should we steal it? Do you want me to wait for you?"

Jiang Yu was taken aback for a moment, thought about it seriously, and then shook her head.

The person behind the Crimson Flower has not yet been found, so just in case, it's best for the Empress not to stay by her side for the time being.

Okay, as long as you don't steal it.

Jiang Mingyue realized that she was constantly lowering her standards when it came to Jiang Yu, which was probably because she wasn't thinking straight.

Besides, stealing someone is better than committing suicide, right?

The little girl has become much better behaved.

Jiang Yu skillfully climbed over the wall into the South Garden, but she never expected to encounter a crime scene as soon as she entered—the very crime scene where her Empress had committed the murder.

Jiang Yu stared blankly as her frail and helpless empress held a blood-stained dagger in her hand, a few drops of blood splattered on her beautiful face.

Standing coldly under the moonlight, she exuded both extreme beauty and a bloody aura, her gaze towards him cold, desolate, and empty.

Jiang Yu was stunned for only two seconds, then ran towards him with a determined look in her eyes.

Shen Ji only saw a petite figure rushing towards him without hesitation in the cold night, then hugging him tightly and gently stroking his head while standing on tiptoe.

A gentle voice sounded in my ear.

"Don't worry, I'm here. You don't need to be afraid of anything."

Shen Ji's empty amber eyes trembled and slowly regained their luster. He obediently stood in place and lowered his head to let her touch him, inexplicably docile.

He stared at her for a long while, his dry throat producing a hoarse voice, "Aren't you afraid?"

Jiang Yu looked at him suspiciously, then looked down at the "corpse" on the ground. After thinking for only a second, she turned around, snatched the murder weapon from his hand, found a hidden spot, squatted down, and started digging.

Seeing her puzzled behavior, Shen Ji asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Dig a pit and bury the body." Jiang Yu pointed to the "corpse" on the ground, and then reassured the Empress, "Don't worry, I'm a professional."

Shen Ji was stunned for a moment.

So the girl meant that he killed someone and she buried the body?

Stunned for a moment, Shen Ji smiled, a genuine smile of joy that shone brighter than the moon in the sky.

She knelt down in front of the little girl who was diligently digging a hole, cupped her face in her hands, looked at her with bright, sparkling eyes, and said with a smile, "You're not even going to ask me why I killed him?"

As Jiang Yu dug the hole, she lowered her brows and looked up, saying matter-of-factly, "It must be his fault."

Shen Ji chuckled, took Jiang Yu's hand and pulled her up, wiping the dirt off her hands as he explained with a smile, "He's not dead."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu's intelligent eyes lit up immediately. He dropped the dagger in his hand and said, "Jiang Mingyue said it's self-defense, so we can get away with it."

That was close! I almost thought we wouldn't be able to get the Empress out.

Shen Ji looked at her with a smile in his eyes, his tone and gaze filled with a hint of doting, "Yes, so you don't need to move, just leave it to Tingfeng."

"It's so late, are you sleepy? How about I tell you the story of the dragon rescuing the princess tonight?"

So he coaxed and led the person away, leaving poor Tingfeng to clean up the mess.

Seeing the Empress's smiling face, Jiang Yu was coaxed into bed in a daze. Only after lying on the bed did she realize what was happening and turned to look at the Empress.

He was wearing a satin nightgown that partially exposed his chest. He lay down beside her with a bedtime storybook in hand, leaned against the headboard, and gently embraced her. His lazy, magnetic voice slowly told her the story of the dragon saving the princess.

The story is about a dragon who falls in love with a princess at first sight and wants to be with her forever. So he bides his time for many years and finally defeats all the princes who have ill intentions towards the princess, and successfully lives happily ever after with her.

The plot of the story was very strange. At first, Jiang Yu felt something was wrong, but after thinking about it, she realized that the world was a law of nature, and the strong were respected. It shouldn't be the empress talking nonsense.

To my surprise, while he certainly doesn't make up stories, he does make them up.

Listening to the gentle voice, Jiang Yu fell asleep.

Looking at the sleeping little girl in his arms, Shen Ji felt a novel sensation he had never experienced before. With a lazy smile in his eyes, he lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.

He really loves the little pet he adopted this time.

The next day, Jiang Yu walked into the Jiang family home with a yawn and unexpectedly met Jiang Mingyue's gaze as she came downstairs. The two looked at each other for two seconds and then looked away in tacit understanding, moving to the dining table to sit down.

"Huh? Da Bao, didn't you go for a walk with Xiao Bao today?" Jiang's mother asked, looking at the two of them walking one after the other.

Jiang Mingyue said without changing her expression, "I turned back halfway."

"Huh? But Miss, you came back in the middle of the night, not halfway back," Aunt Wang suddenly interjected to correct.

Jiang Mingyue's usually impassive expression cracked slightly as she gritted her teeth and forced out a few words, "Wang Ma, you really know a lot. Don't you sleep at night?"

"You're asleep. I just happened to see you come back when I got up in the middle of the night."

Jiang Mingyue's expression completely crumbled, and she apologized smoothly, "I'm sorry."

She deserves to die.

Aunt Wang smiled and said, "It's alright~"

Jiang Mingyue didn't laugh. Looking around, she suddenly felt a sense of misfortune.

It must be her imagination!
