Chapter 246: Huan Er Is a Treasure

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Since you don’t know, then don’t say it.”

Upon hearing Lin Mengyao’s words, Xiao Nanye responded immediately.

The undisguised annoyance in Xiao Nanye’s eyes, Lin Mengyao’s face stiffened.

“King Cheng, you might not know, but before you, Miss Jiang of the Jiang family and Prince Qing had interactions and shared a deep friendship. I’m unsure why Miss Jiang changed her feelings towards Prince Qing, perhaps because King Cheng has won the emperor’s favor?”

Lin Mengyao spoke softly, but her words clearly reached everyone’s ears.

Jiang Peihuan never expected Lin Mengyao to make such a blatant insinuation. Such words were indeed nauseating.

After Lin Mengyao finished speaking, Jiang Peihuan instinctively looked at Xiao Nanye.

What surprised Jiang Peihuan was the lack of anger in Xiao Nanye’s eyes. In fact, he seemed even more annoyed.

“Are you done?”

Lin Mengyao was stunned when she saw Xiao Nanye’s indifferent expression.

“King Cheng, aren’t you angry?”

“Why should I be?”

Lin Mengyao was speechless.

Seeing her puzzled expression, Xiao Nanye reached out and held Jiang Peihuan’s hand.

“Regardless of whether what you said is true or false, even if it were true, 1 would never let go of Huan Er.”

“People coveting Huan Er just proves she’s a gem. Such a treasure, 1 will surely never let go.”

“As for today’s matter, let it pass. But if I ever hear of you tarnishing Huan Er’s reputation again, I’ll kill you directly by myself.”

As he uttered the last sentence, Xiao Nanye’s gaze towards Lin Mengyao was filled with undisguised killing intent.

Lin Mengyao couldn’t help but shiver, turning her gaze towards Jiang Peihuan.

There was no anger in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes, just a faint smile. A smile seemed to be a glaring mockery.

“Xiao Junhao, take your girl and get out of here!”

At this moment, Xiao Nanye looked at Xiao Junhao and said coldly.

Lin Mengyao wanted to say something else, but she was abruptly taken away by Xiao Junhao. As he left, Xiao Junhao’s eyes involuntarily landed on Jiang Peihuan, though her gaze remained on Xiao Nanye.

Xiao Junhao tightly clenched his fist.

“Huan Er, let’s go. Shouldn’t we head to the city gate today?”

After Xiao Junhao and Lin Mengyao left. Had Jiang Peihuan not clearly remembered the previous scene, she would have thought the cold-eyed man from before and the one now were not the same person.

“Xiao Nanye,” she asked, “you don’t have any questions about what Lin Mengyao said?”

“Is it important?”

At her words, Xiao Nanye stopped in his tracks, turning to her, and softly inquired.

After a few seconds, she chuckled.

“Indeed, it’s unimportant. Let’s go.”

Outside the general’s mansion, in a carriage.

“Your Highness, let me treat your wound.”

Lin Mengyao said softly as she looked at the wound on Xiao Junhao’s arm.

Lin Mengyao reached out her hand. However, just as her hand was about to touch Xiao Junhao, the man dodged it.

Lin Mengyao looked at him with confusion.

“Why did you say those words in front of Jiang Peihuan today?” Xiao Junhao asked directly,

“Is Your Highness angry?”

Lin Mengyao placed her hands elegantly on her knees and looked at Xiao Junhao.

“Your Highness did indeed invest a lot in Miss Jiang.” Though he intended to use Jiang Peihuan to gain military power from Jiang Hong, he did put in genuine effort.

After a while, he told her, “From now on, never mention these matters again.”

“Yes.”

It was the first time Xiao Junhao had been so cold towards her. Was it because the Lin family was now powerless that he no longer bothered to be polite?

These thoughts made Lin Mengyao’s expression complex.

“Your Highness, the head of the Lin family is now Lin Xingchen. I… I have no place to call home.”

“In that case, move into my mansion.”

“How could that be possible?”

Lin Mengyao responded instinctively, clearly disapproving.

If she entered the mansion now, what reputation would she have left?

“What do you propose, then?”

Xiao Junhao calmly inquired.

“Perhaps Your Highness could find a house for me outside,” Lin Mengyao began.

They were interrupted by a voice from outside, “Are you all blind?”

Hearing the voice, Lin Mengyao frowned, and Xiao Junhao’s expression turned sour.

With his status, he could not directly confront the individual.

“Do you know who 1 am? I’m the daughter of the Xue family. The great general is my uncle…”

When he heard the word ‘general’, his eyes revealed a thoughtful look.

Xiao Junhao lifted the curtain and got off the carriage.

“Your Highness?”

The horsekeeper of the Qing Mansion hurriedly gave Xiao Junhao his luggage. The person arguing outside was none other than Xue Ru.

Her foot had already recovered. These few days, Jiang Peihuan and the others had been busy giving out porridge. Xue Ru was bored, so she walked around.

Xue Yan also gave her some money in private.

Xue Ru was prepared to go out for a walk, but she did not expect to encounter such a thing as soon as she went out. Her new dress was stained by the snow splashed by the carriage.

However, the anger in Xue Ru’s eyes disappeared instantly when she saw Xiao Junhao alighting from the carriage.

“I’m really sorry for dirtying miss’s dress. Why don’t you get into the car, miss? I will go to the shop in front to buy miss a set of clothes, and it can also be considered as an apology to miss.”

“It’s just a dress. It’s nothing.”

Xue Ru’s face turned red when she saw the gentleness in Xiao Junhao’s eyes. She quickly spoke up when she heard his words.

“It was originally my carriage that dirtied miss’s dress, so naturally it should be compensated..”
