Xiao Nian didn't refuse, and let Su Fuliu help her walk back.
When Su Fuliu arrived at Xiao Nian's house, she looked up at the plaque and was startled. How could she have bumped into someone of such high status so easily?
No wonder he thought Xiao Nian had an extraordinary air about him, unlike an ordinary young master from a wealthy family.
He also remembered that his servant had called him "Young Master" earlier.
Seeing that he was standing at the door and wouldn't move, Xiao Nian asked, "What's wrong? Are you just going to leave him here? Aren't you going in?"
Su Fuliu really didn't want to go in. As an ordinary citizen, he was naturally a little intimidated to enter the home of a prince or minister.
Just like when I first entered the Prince Ting's mansion, I was extremely nervous.
But he injured Xiao Nian. Since he brought her back, he should see her off completely and make sure she gets back to her room to rest properly.
So, without saying anything, he helped Xiao Nian inside.
But not long after entering, they saw...
Chapter 30 Such a Jealous Person
Su Fuliu saw a woman dressed in red, who was very beautiful, walking over.
The woman looked at him with hostility.
This puzzled him.
This seems to be his first time here, right? And the first time he's seen this woman, right?
Why is this woman so hostile towards him?
Su Fuliu couldn't understand it.
"Young Master, what happened to you? Are you injured again?"
Su Fuliu was taken aback; this voice didn't sound like a woman's at all.
It turns out he misunderstood.
He had assumed the woman in red was a beautiful woman, but it turned out she was a man with a more gentle nature, just like him.
Fortunately, he didn't say much, like anything about girls.
Otherwise, I'll lose face again.
“I’m fine, you don’t need to worry,” Xiao Nian said.
"It's good that the young master is alright." With that, the man in red walked over and pushed Su Fuliu aside. "I'll help the young master."
Seeing that the other party was so unfriendly to him, Su Fuliu decided to leave as soon as possible. He didn't want to enter the home of such a high-ranking and powerful person anyway.
Seeing that Su Fuliu was about to leave, Xiao Nian quickly said, "Are you leaving already? I haven't even gone back to my room yet. Aren't you going to see me off to the end?"
After saying that, he brushed away the man in red's hand and then took Su Fuliu's hand: "Let's go, we'll be at my room soon."
Su Fuliu looked at the man in red with a troubled expression.
The man in red looked like he was about to devour him, which puzzled him.
This man in red must be one of Xiao Nian's subordinates. Logically, since he helped Xiao Nian back, he should express his gratitude.
"Let's go." Xiao Nian said when she saw Su Fuliu in a daze.
Su Fuliu then came to her senses, glanced at Xiao Nian, and decided to stop thinking about it and quickly send her back to her room so she could leave sooner.
So he helped Xiao Nian back to her room and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He nodded to Xiao Nian as a farewell, and then turned and left.
Xiao Nian kept watching his departing figure, unable to look away for a long time.
The man in red standing to the side snorted, "They've all disappeared, is the young master still watching?"
Xiao Nian then looked away and glanced at him, saying, "You're really jealous."
"Hmph, Young Master has never seen anyone so captivated before. Even I have never received such a gaze from Young Master." The man in red spoke with accusation and grievance.
"Alright, I need to rest now. You can go back to your room first."
“…Alright, Your Highness, please rest well. I'll take my leave.” With that, the man in red also departed.
After he left, Xiao Nian instructed the servant beside him, "Hurry up and chase after him to see where he went."
"Didn't he go back to his room?" The servant hadn't even realized what was happening.
Xiao Nian glanced at him: "I was referring to the one who couldn't speak before."
"Oh, it's him. Okay, this servant will go after him and see." The servant was a little embarrassed, and then quickly left.
Xiao Nian sat down and gently stroked the injured area.
After leaving the Duke of Huguo's mansion, Su Fuliu embarked on her journey back to the Prince of Ting's mansion.
He suddenly found it somewhat amusing; all he wanted was to return to the Prince Ting's mansion, yet the journey had been so full of twists and turns.
Is God trying to hint at something?
Thinking of this, Su Fuliu quickly shook her head, trying to shake the thought away.
It was because of my hesitation about whether to go back that this whole series of events happened, so I'll just stop thinking about it and see what happens when I get back to the Prince's Mansion!
So he walked forward without hesitation.
But just then...
Chapter 31 The Rampage of the Lion
Su Fuliu felt a chill run down his spine and shivered, muttering, "Why do I feel so cold?"
"Su Fuliu!" A furious voice suddenly rang out.
Su Fuliu's heart skipped a beat in fright.
He looked up and saw Feng Muting standing opposite him, his whole body radiating coldness.
It turned out that the chill was coming from him.
Su Fuliu swallowed hard, then smiled obsequiously, "Your Highness..."
"Do you still remember me?" Feng Muting asked coldly, his brows furrowed.
Su Fuliu twitched the corner of his mouth: "Of course I'm smart. I'd rather forget about the shit than forget Your Highness! How did Your Highness pick this?"
Feng Muting frowned: "Why are you talking like that?"
Su Fuliu replied with a wronged expression, "I bit 'Zhizhi's' tongue 'Bald'..."
"..." Feng Muting was speechless. Was this the reason why Su Fuliu hadn't spoken up?
Su Fuliu dared not speak to Qin Shi, but she dared not speak to Feng Muting.
Even if his tongue hurts terribly just from saying a single word, he still has to say it.
"Why is Your Highness picking this?"
"I'm here to arrest people!" Feng Muting said through gritted teeth.
Su Fuliu trembled in fright: "Arrest, arrest people... Well then, I won't bother Your Highness with official business."
As he spoke, he wisely stepped aside to make way for Feng Muting.
Feng Muting was so angry at his wooden expression that he was practically fuming.
"The person I'm looking for is right here. You don't need to make way," Feng Muting said, then strode away.
Su Fuliu swallowed again, her eyes flickering uncertainly: "Your Highness... the person you want to arrest, it can't be... me, can it?"
At this moment, Feng Muting had already arrived in front of Su Fuliu. He was half a head taller than Su Fuliu, and as soon as he stood there, he completely enveloped Su Fuliu in shadow.
Su Fuliu gasped, her heart leaping into her throat: "Your Highness is too ruthless! I know I was wrong, I won't dare run away again!"
Feng Muting didn't speak, but glanced at him, then suddenly reached out and scooped him up, hoisting him onto his shoulder.
Su Fuliu trembled with fear: "Your Highness!"
This was happening on the street, and Feng Muting's actions not only frightened Su Yan, who was standing nearby.
It even terrified the pedestrians on the street.
"My God, how could such a thing as abducting a man in broad daylight?!"
"This is so exciting!"
"My God, isn't that Prince Ting?!"
"So, the reason why Prince Ting has never married is..."
"Shh! Are you all out of your minds, daring to discuss Prince Ting's affairs?!"
"No, no, but this is really getting a bit too exciting..."
"Your Highness, put 'Wu' down, put 'Wu' down!" Su Fuliu struggled incessantly, but Feng Muting's restraints were too firm, and all his struggles were in vain.
Feng Muting carried Su Fuliu directly back to the Tingwang Mansion, but instead of carrying her to her room, he carried her straight to his room.
He kicked open the door and carried Su Fuliu inside.
Su Fuliu had never seen Feng Muting so enraged. That kick wasn't just hitting the door; it was practically stomping on his fragile heart.
Qin Shi really ruined him. Qin Shi even said that Feng Muting might not resent him, but it's also his own fault for being so easily swayed that he actually came back out of curiosity.
Now look what's happened, I'm going to die!
Feng Muting was now like a rampaging lion, his life trembling in the wind.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, you..."
"Shut up!" Feng Muting roared.
Su Fuliu was so frightened that he dared not utter a sound, letting Feng Muting roughly throw him onto the bed...
