Lin Xuecha subconsciously looked over, but then he heard the man say, "Don't look."

She immediately stopped looking.

More and more people gathered around him, forming a small circle.

Su Nanxing pressed down against her body, and didn't move an inch.

Lin Xuecha frowned, and used a voice that only the two of them could hear, and told him:

"How are your injuries?"

Su Nanxing also responded in a soft voice, "I don't have much strength, help this king return to his house."

Lin Xuecha winked at him and did as he was told.

She pushed him away, then helped him to his feet.

She was already used to martial arts, so carrying a man wasn't a problem for her, let alone helping him?

The problem was that the world didn't know she had martial arts …

In the end, Su Nanxing was still a man.

If she were to easily support a man and travel a large distance, wouldn't that seem like —

Extremely strange?

After thinking for a bit, Lin Xuecha put his arm around her shoulders, and then wrapped her arm around his waist, she walked forward.

Although this posture was a bit indecent, it was currently the most believable fact that a weak woman like her was able to support a grown man.

The man lowered his head. Half of his weight was on her body.

He slanted his eyes slightly.

Her strenuous expression entered his eyes in an instant.

Someone who doesn't know her background might... She would really be tricked by her current appearance.

His lips curled up into a smile.

His little fool had never been a weak girl.

Some people could not stand watching on. After all, there were many good people who cared for women and had a kind heart.

That person stepped forward and said, "Miss, this is your brother. Tell me, how do you plan to walk your home? Your brother will bring your brother home."

Before Lin Xuecha could respond, a burst of strength came from his shoulder.

This was —

Warning.

A warning to her.

Lin Xuecha looked at him and fell silent.

His mind couldn't help but imagine the scene of a grown man supporting another man …

The feeling of being in the center of all this...

"Tsk …"

Well, obscene, cumbersome had never been her style.

Generally speaking, she would only think about it, but she would never say it out loud, much less do it.

Thinking about Su Nanxing's identity, she looked at that person and rejected him with a smile, "Thank you big brother for your kind intentions. I am forever grateful, but my big brother … "I don't like strangers getting close, so …"

Looking at the pale Su Nanxing who was sticking to her body, he said sincerely:

"Your eldest brother wouldn't mind. After all, it's an urgent matter."

Lin Xuecha shook his head and smiled, "No need, thank you."

With that said, she went around the man and supported Su Nanxing back to the house.

That person's eyes flashed. He glanced at the pavilion before nodding and turning to leave.

The people who were looking at Lin Xuecha and Su Nanxing from the pavilion also retracted their gazes and closed the window.

Lin Xuecha did not turn his head to look, but only asked, "Are these people targeting His Highness, or Snow Tea?"

"Who are you to worry about?"

"…"

Lin Xuecha choked, was she imagining things?

To others, there was no way to harm them at all...

It was likely that the Second Madame of the Marquis Anping Palace had yet to take her to heart. At most, they would only feel that she was a little eyesore …

In her opinion, she wasn't completely useless.

After all, with a despicable and disreputable Senior Princess like her …

Only then would it be apparent that Princess Luoxi from the Marquis Anping Palace was that knowledgeable and had an extraordinary temperament.

If she thought about it carefully, she really did have the principle of not killing her …

Lin Xuecha smiled, and the look in his eyes turned faint and cold, as he said nothing more.

After returning to the manor, Su Nanxing removed his hand from Lin Xuecha's shoulder and stood up by himself. He no longer had the miserable appearance of a heavily injured person …

Lin Xuecha was slightly startled.

Then, he realized that the weakness he felt earlier must have been caused by him acting in front of others.

After all …

Ninth Prince Su Nanxing's body was weak. She rolled a few times while hugging a person on the ground. It was reasonable for her to be slightly injured …

She lowered her eyes slightly, but Su Nanxing looked at her for a moment, then took a step back and returned to the Tasting Tea Pavilion.

She hurried to keep up.

On the table in the teahouse was a stack of documents.

Lin Xuecha automatically sat down there and took out a book on the Way of Tea from his sleeve.

She had not even finished reciting a few words before several books appeared before her eyes. They were extremely thick.

If you looked closely, you would see books on etiquette in ladies' houses, as well as court etiquette in the palaces.

Lin Xuecha's eyes moved slightly. Raising her head, she looked at the man in front of her and said:

"Your Highness, this is …"

The man returned to his seat beside the desk. He looked at her and said slowly,

"After you finish memorizing the Way of Tea and reading those books, you can go back to your residence."

Lin Xuecha swept a glance across the pile of items in front of her and saw a thick stack of items.

"Your Highness, there are indeed a lot of these books. With Snow Tea's talent, wouldn't it be a little …"

Forcing others to make things difficult?

Su Nanxing said as he cut her off in an indifferent tone, "Then, we'll return home after it's dark."

Even if it was dark, she wouldn't be able to watch the rest of the stack. It would at least be midnight by the time she finished reading it, and if she returned to the manor at this time, the Second Madame would definitely find trouble with her …

Lin Xuecha opened his mouth, "Your Highness, after dark, women are not allowed to casually walk on the streets …"

It was not a festive day, and it was not a festive day …

Of course she could not. She hurried back to the Marquis Anping Palace from the Ninth Prince Palace only after it was dark …

Her reputation was already in disarray, but most of it was caused by other people.

She didn't want to be a chatterbox, in case she had to worry about other people's opinions in the future.

The man stared at her for a long time.

It made Lin Xuecha's hair stand on end.

He thought that he was going to give her another stack of books, but unexpectedly, all he did was give a faint "hmm".

And then?

Gone?!

Just by saying 'hmm', it was already gone?!

What did that mean?

Should he agree to her returning to the residence before finishing the book, or should he go to the side …

Lin Xuecha was not sure about his thoughts, and was prepared to ask again.

The man, on the other hand, was staring at her. He opened his mouth at a leisurely pace:

"Stay here for the night. This King agrees."
