Her journey as a Crown Princess was full of thorns, and Jun Lingyun's journey as a Crown Prince must have been even more difficult. Underneath everyone's fearful appearance, there may be a scarred heart.
Jun Lingyun's eyebrows were really beautiful, as if they were the product of God's partiality. Especially when he was so defenseless, Chu Yunxi couldn't help but reach out and touch his dark eyebrows.
But she was caught by him, and the moment her eyes opened, Chu Yunxi's heart trembled. Her eyes were as alert as a wild beast, as if she would be killed by him if she had the slightest deviance.
Jun Lingyun realized that the person next to him was Chu Yunxi, and his vigilance instantly faded away, turning into a soft color.
"Xi'er, are you greedy for my body?"
"I, I, I'm going to drink water."
Chu Yunxi had never heard such words of tiger and wolf in his two lifetimes. He was embarrassed for a moment and hurriedly got up to get some water. The man in front of him was really too dangerous.
Drinking one cup didn't bring any relief. Chu Yunxi still felt thirsty, so she drank another cup.
"Don't worry, Xi'er. After the wedding, I will belong to Xi'er. You can touch Xi'er wherever you want."
He raised his head, his eyes blurred in sleep, looking like a swinger.
Chu Yunxi glanced at him in embarrassment, wondering why no one had ever told her that His Highness the Crown Prince had such a shameless side.
She bit her lip and mustered up the courage to drive them away:
"Your Highness, you should go back to the East Palace to sleep. I can't sleep with you here."
"As long as Xi'er doesn't have any wrong thoughts about me, she can naturally fall asleep. If she doesn't sleep, it will be dawn. Does Xi'er want to talk to me at night by holding a candle?"
He teased her with great interest, and when he saw her angry and blushing face, he laughed unconsciously.
"You're still laughing, still laughing? Who has any undue thoughts about you? Who wants to talk to you by candlelight at night?"
Chu Yunxi became angry and had a new understanding of human beings' ability to confuse right and wrong. She wished she could just throw this shameless man out.
"It's okay if you don't. Come and sleep."
She looked at the man who covered himself with quilt and closed his eyes. She touched her cold body and turned around a few times.
Seeing that he seemed to have fallen asleep again, he resigned himself to his fate and returned to the bed, lying down quietly next to the bed.
But someone came close to him. In an instant, warmth spread throughout his body. Chu Yunxi did not dare to move, for fear of provoking Jun Lingyun again and saying something embarrassing.
Perhaps the temperature was so comfortable that Chu Yunxi, who was still pretentious, quickly fell asleep.
When the genius dawned, the two of them were sleeping soundly.
"Miss, miss, wake up quickly."
Chu Yunxi heard Xiaolian calling her angrily and sat up. It was not yet dawn. What was Xiaolian doing? Could it be that Jun Lingyun was really discovered by her family when she was in her bed?
She hurriedly looked to her side. Jun Lingyun, whose dream was disturbed, narrowed his angry eyes and stared at Xiaolian. Chu Yunxi was really worried that Xiaolian's life would be in danger in the next moment.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince." Xiao Lian said tremblingly.
Chu Yunxi moved her position to block Jun Lingyun's sight that would scare Xiaolian to death.
"Xiao Lian, did your father, mother, or brothers find out that the prince stayed here overnight?" she asked nervously.
Little Lotus shook her head like a rattle: "No, miss, something happened to my cousin."
"What did you say? Who happened to be in trouble?" Chu Yunxi thought she heard wrongly.
"Something happened to Miss Su Yan. Mrs. Su knocked on the door before dawn. Now she is crying at the master's house."
Xiaolian knew that Chu Yunxi and Su Yan were close. Miss Su Yan also helped Chu Yunxi a lot at Princess Pingyao's flower viewing party, and she was worried too.
"Get me changed quickly."
Chu Yunxi hurriedly changed clothes, completely forgetting that there was someone on the bed.
Seeing Chu Yunxi running away, Jun Lingyun stared at the door and sighed deeply. When did he, the majestic prince of Yunxiao Kingdom, become so insignificant?
As he put on his clothes, he lowered his eyes and thought. How could Su Yan, Chu Yunxi's cousin and the young lady from the Ningyuan Hou Mansion, suddenly disappear?
Chu Yunxi went to the main courtyard. Her aunt had already burst into tears: "What should I do? What should I do with my Yan'er?"
"What happened to aunt, father, mother, cousin?" Chu Yunxi bowed and asked urgently.
"Xi'er." Mrs. Su became even more sad when she saw Chu Yunxi, who was as old as her daughter, "Your cousin, she is missing, we can't find her."
"Aunt, please don't cry. When did it happen? Why did you disappear?"
Chu Yunxi supported Mrs. Su who was crying.
"Just yesterday, she went out to play and didn't come back until dark. You also know her temperament. Although she is a little more straightforward, she will never stay up all night. We sent people to search for it all night, but couldn't find it. If she has anything
How can I survive?"
Mrs. Su held Chu Yunxi's hand as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"Sister-in-law, please sit down and drink some water first, and take care of yourself. Zhong'er and the others have already taken people out to search for her, and they will definitely find Yan'er back."
Mrs. Chu has nothing to do now and can only persuade Mrs. Su first.
"You can't make a big show of it, otherwise what will happen to Yan'er's reputation?"
Mrs. Su's heart seemed to be on fire. She was afraid that something would happen to her daughter and wanted to find her daughter as soon as possible. But if everyone knew that she was missing overnight, she would not even think about getting married.
Yesterday? Cold sweat began to form on Chu Yunxi's palms. Yesterday, Aunt Liu left the house and acted suspiciously. How could it be such a coincidence? Does the disappearance of my cousin have anything to do with Aunt Liu?
But what does Aunt Liu do to her cousin? If this matter really has anything to do with Aunt Liu, she doesn't dare to think that Aunt Liu and Chu Xue'er have no way out. If a dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, then cousin...
"Auntie, don't worry. I'll go out to inquire after daybreak. Maybe I can find some clues."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" a servant outside suddenly announced.
Everyone had no time to react and hurriedly went out to greet him. Only Chu Yunxi was in a daze. Is Jun Lingyun going out through the wall and coming in through the front door? Really, it's not too troublesome.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, has missed his welcome from afar. I wonder if His Highness came early in the morning, but what is the important matter?" General Chu said in a polite manner.
"No need to be polite, I just came to see the Crown Princess."
Following Jun Lingyun's gaze, several people saw that Chu Yunxi was still standing where he was.
"Xi'er, why haven't you come to salute His Highness the Crown Prince?"
General Chu has a big head. Xi'er is usually very polite and polite. Why has he often lost his etiquette in front of His Highness the Crown Prince recently? What if he is rejected by the Crown Prince?
"We are husband and wife, so we don't need to stick to etiquette. I allow her to do whatever she wants."
When General Chu and Mrs. Chu heard this, they were filled with emotion. Half a month ago, Xi'er and His Royal Highness were still incompatible with each other. In just half a month, it was not easy for the two of them to reach this point.
Mrs. Su was also happy to see that the prince valued Chu Yunxi so much.
She thought that if His Highness the Crown Prince was willing to help find her daughter, then the hope of her daughter being found would be increased.
"Your Highness, please save my little girl. My little girl didn't come back last night, and her life or death is uncertain."
Mrs. Su knelt down. As long as she could save her daughter, she would not let go of any hope.
