"He never had any relationship with me. Even if he did, it would be a cooperative relationship. As long as I help him ascend to the throne, it would be fine as long as this is the case. At that time, we would not owe each other anything."

Yes, that was all she had to do.

They were people from two different worlds, not to mention that he already had a second half. It was even more impossible for them to be together, so there was no need for him to trouble himself over this.

Su Qianxing's words were just to embarrass him. He was guiding him to hate Su Qianhan. This way, he would have one less obstacle when dealing with that man in the future.

As long as she knew this, she would not be so conflicted over such a trivial matter.

With that thought in mind, Xiao Qing Qing walked towards the bed while supporting herself with the table.

She was tired, really tired today.

She wanted to rest. As long as she could have a good night's rest, she would not be so depressed when she woke up tomorrow.

After she returned from cooking, Xiao Qing Qing had already fallen asleep on the bed. Her blanket was casually draped over her body and her shoes were randomly tossed underneath the bed. Perhaps it was due to the cold that her body was curled up together.

She carefully covered her with a blanket before placing her shoes under the bed and left, closing the door behind her.

The nightmare that had clearly passed away from staying in the prince's mansion a few days ago came back once again. During the night, all she saw were houses that had collapsed from the flames, closed coffins, dark bamboo forests, and a messy mix of dreams that caused her to feel more and more tense after falling asleep.

She wanted to open her eyes, but there was nothing she could do. Her eyelids were too heavy for her to lift, and her forehead seemed to have a very warm and thick object on it. The heat could directly sweep away the haze at the bottom of her heart, and burrow into her brain to chase away the nightmares.

But she did not do so, almost instinctively protecting herself. She abruptly opened her eyes and reflexively grabbed the wrist on her forehead.

Su Qianhan was also stunned. He didn't expect her to wake up. It was because he had helped her to sleep like this even back at the Wang Mansion.

Xiao Qingran's expression was cold, but she was actually still half asleep and not fully awake. Her actions were only done for her own defense and were something that had instinctively and subconsciously happened over the years. She opened her mouth and spoke in a hoarse voice: "Su Qianhan?"

Su Qian Han did not move, allowing her to grab his wrist. With a very gentle tone, he asked her, "Have you had another nightmare?"

Xiao Qing then blinked and nodded her head in confusion. Only after a while did she regain her senses and let go of her hands. It's a little bit old. "

She breathed a sigh of relief, placed one hand on her face and pinched both temples. She covered her eyes with the palm of her hand and leaned against the headboard. "Did I scare you just now?"

"No, I'm already used to it." Su Qianhan said casually.

These words caused Xiao Qing Qing to be stunned.

Used to it?

She put down her hand and turned to look at him, slightly frowning as she guessed, "Was that the reason you shamelessly insisted on sleeping with me in the Prince's Mansion?"

Why hadn't she noticed before that every time she slept well, she would have a rule that involved the presence of this man, whether he was here at the manor or before?

It had nothing to do with where he was. The most important thing was that he was right next to him.

Su Qianhan pursed her lips, neither nodding nor shaking her head. She only said softly, "It's still early, go to sleep for a while more. I'll guard you."

In the darkness of the room, only the moonlight seeped in. It was so gentle that even the stiff lines on the man's face softened. It gave Xiao Qing a feeling that even an iron man like him would have moments of gentleness.

However, she suppressed her thoughts as two faces appeared in her mind. One was Su Qian Xing and the other was Feng Xi'er.

It had to be said that no matter how Xiao Qing Ran consoled him, Su Qian Xing's words today still had an impact on her. It had to be said that regardless of how Xiao Qing Ran consoled him, Su Qian Xing's words still had an impact on her.

"No need." Xiao Qing Ran closed her eyes and tried to make her voice as cold and free as possible, "I can do it myself. It's already so late, so why don't you quickly return to your residence. It wouldn't be good if someone found out."

Although she had only talked to Feng Xi'er once, she could tell that the woman's control was actually very strong. It was just that Su Qianhan's personality was domineering and cold, and her potential control could not be expressed, so she hid under her soft skin.

Su Qianhan thought that she was talking about herself and frowned, "It's fine. When I came over, there was no one following me. No one would say anything."

She still didn't believe that she had the ability to protect her. In reality, she didn't care about the opinions of outsiders at all. If anyone said anything more, he would just send people to settle it. He definitely wouldn't make her feel wronged.

Xiao Qing Ran froze for a moment before saying in a deep voice: "Even if Your Highness doesn't care, I will. Your Highness, it's best if you don't do such things that would cause misunderstandings."

If he was afraid that people would speak ill of him to Feng Xi'er, then from the beginning he might as well not provoke her. Although he wasn't someone who would pay attention to the expressions and attitudes of others, he still didn't want to carry the title of 'Little San' with him.

Su Qianhan's eyes darkened as his expression turned ugly, "Do you think I am giving you trouble?"

Xiao Qingyan frowned: "I didn't mean that. I'm just reminding the prince that there are some things you shouldn't do and that there are some people you shouldn't be so close to."

It would be better for him to keep his relationship with him at a distance.

Su Qian Han's expression turned cold as he heard her last sentence. His hand subconsciously clenched as he asked, "Are you warning this king?"

Warning him not to have anything else to do with her?

Very good, this woman was really very good!

He had specially come over to see if she could sleep well tonight. He was so worried about her, but she actually didn't understand his feelings. This damnable woman!

Xiao Qingxi lowered her gaze. She was somewhat puzzled when she saw his sudden anger: "What I'm saying is the truth. This is beneficial even to me. Your highness should hear it …"

'Bang! ' His eyes suddenly turned cold as he punched the pillar above her head. His gaze was cold, and even the moonlight was unable to dissipate his fury.

His sudden action caused Xiao Qing Qing to jump in fright. Following that, all of the anger that was suppressed in her heart burst out, "Su Qian Han, you're crazy! What kind of place do you think I am to let you go crazy just because you want to? Do you really think I'm easy to mess with? "

She really had no way to properly communicate with this man. Every time he said something he didn't want to hear, he would only use violence to resolve it and would never be at peace with himself. Could he be the same with Feng Xi'er?

Looking at the peaceful gaze he gave Feng Xi'er today, Xiao Qing Ran unconsciously clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. "Su Qian Han, let me warn you, I'm not your pet. If you feel dissatisfied in your heart, then scram back to your royal palace and don't put on a show of force here! "

After Su Qian Han punched her, she could no longer suppress the fire in her heart. Now that she used this tone to speak, she was obviously unable to calm her heart down, "Acting mighty? How could This King dare to act mighty in front of Third Miss? From the beginning to the end, I was still led away by your nose. "

That's right, the two of them had been like this from the very beginning, to the moment he discovered his feelings.

It was as if she was the one maintaining this feeling from beginning to end. She had been standing in a safe place all along, watching his performance. It was a scene that was laughable even just thinking about it!

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean, you don't know?" If it was before, Su Qianhan would never have had such a reaction. If someone provoked him, he would have been quick with a knife and let them deal with him. But now, this was the first time he was truly angry with someone.

It was the first time in history that he had quarrelled with someone, and it was even with someone he liked.

"What do you mean you don't know? How could the Third Miss be someone to be trifled with? You are the worst! "

He had never had such thoughts towards a woman before, but he had used everything from soft to hard, yet she didn't put him in her eyes at all.

Was it in her heart that she was nothing from start to finish?

Perhaps it was really like that, just like Su Qianxing. Even though she said that she didn't love him anymore, how could there be any hate if she didn't love him. But here at her place, she didn't even have any hate!

Su Qianhan gritted her teeth. Looking at the woman on the other side of the bed, she really wanted to tear off her clothes without a care in the world. She didn't have the heart to lock the other person up by her side.

This was the second time such a dangerous thought had appeared in Su Qianhan's mind. He had never denied the darkness in his heart, and the desire to possess her was stronger than anyone else.

"You're sick!" Red veins appeared in Xiao Qing Ran's eyes as she choked on a myriad of words because of his inexplicably mysterious temper. In the end, she could only spit out one word.

"This King is sick, and sick to death!"

The person in front of him was the source of his illness. Unfortunately, from start to finish, she was completely unaffected and did not get into the situation at all!

Su Qian Han suddenly felt that he was a little funny. On the battlefield, he had killed hundreds and thousands of people, but in front of a woman, he was nothing at all.

He really wanted to punch her again, just to make her faint in his arms. But in the end, he couldn't bear to do so. He glared at her coldly before slamming the door and leaving.

He was afraid that if he did not leave now, he would do something irreparable.

Xiao Qing saw that he was going to throw his face away, so she felt even more unhappy. She grabbed her pillow and slammed it against the door, saying angrily, "Su Qianhan, you son of a b * tch!"
