"Get up quickly! Otherwise, I won't keep my words."
An Ruowan raised her hand to lift the two of them up from the ground, and then continued to walk forward. Unknowingly, she arrived outside Songli Courtyard, still feeling a little uneasy.
"What are you doing standing here?"
Song Li noticed the figure outside the courtyard and stood up to welcome her in.
"Cousin, that second prince must not have good intentions."
An Ruowan said this straight to the point.
Unexpectedly, Song Li laughed out loud, "Wanwan, what are you thinking about? I have no interest in that kind of person."
"Of course I know this, but if someone like him has other thoughts, who can prevent him?"
An Ruowan was not worried about Song Li being blind, but just worried that Song Li would not be on guard against Gu Qishen.
"I know, cousin, why didn't I realize before that you are still a worrier."
As he spoke, Song Li tapped her nose and looked at her with a slight frown before smiling.
After walking around the Duke's Mansion, An Ruowan felt more comfortable. When he was about to go back, he saw the housekeeper coming towards here in a hurry.
"The second prince has sent someone to wait outside the palace for a long time. He has to wait for the young lady to go out."
Originally, the housekeeper didn't take this matter to heart, thinking that they would leave without waiting for anyone. Unexpectedly, they were still there until now, so he hurried over and told Song Li the matter.
"It doesn't matter, I'll go out and take a look."
Song Li looked a little more serious and followed the housekeeper towards the door of the house.
Seeing this, An Ruowan followed without thinking too much. She also wanted to hear what Gu Qishen's wishful thinking was.
The two of them arrived at the gate of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion one after another. As expected, they saw a person who looked like a guard standing there. After seeing Song Li go out, they quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Miss Song, I wonder if the affairs in the palace have been settled? My prince is still waiting for Miss Song in the restaurant."
After hearing what the guard said, Song Li's face darkened a little.
Before Song Li could speak, An Ruowan followed behind him.
The guard outside the palace obviously knew An Ruowan. When he saw her, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, "I have met Princess Rong."
"My cousin has gone home now. Who is your prince? Why did you chase her outside the house? Why, if you don't go today, will you commit the serious crime of being executed?"
The guard did not expect that Gu Qishen would make such a fuss when he asked him to pick up someone.
Facing An Ruowan's inquiry, the guard lowered his eyes and did not dare to speak casually.
"It doesn't matter, I just left the restaurant. I must have not explained clearly." Song Li also knew the identity of the other party, so he did not want to make the matter too much, so he took the initiative to stand up.
The guard was relieved when he saw that Song Li was still winking.
Unexpectedly, after the guard made a gesture of invitation to Song Li, he realized that An Ruowan had also followed him.
"I happen to have nothing to do, and I'm going to join in the fun. Is it convenient?"
Sensing the guard's gaze, An Ruowan slowly spoke.
How could the guard have the courage to say no? I had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.
Soon they returned to the restaurant together. When they heard footsteps outside the door, Gu Qishen raised his lips and was about to say something, but he didn't expect that the figure who pushed the door open was An Ruowan.
"Why are you here?"
Gu Qishen showed a surprised look, and the words he blurted out inevitably added a bit of dissatisfaction.
An Ruowan didn't care about it at all and sat down on her own.
"Is there something wrong with my memory? This is the Second Prince's Mansion?"
Listening to An Ruowan's question, Gu Qishen shook his head subconsciously.
"That's right. Since this place is not the second prince's territory, then what does this princess have to do with the second prince when she comes here?"
After the words fell, An Ruowan raised her eyes and stared at Gu Qishen.
Seeing this, Gu Qishen shivered unconsciously, but after regaining consciousness, his eyes widened again.
"This is not Prince Rong's palace either!"
Hearing this, An Ruowan laughed out loud, "Of course, I have never thought about driving away the second prince."
Gu Qishen couldn't think of a rebuttal for a while, so he could only sit down angrily.
"Okay, very good."
At this time, Song Li entered the room as if he was late.
"I wonder why the second prince specifically ordered the guards to wait outside the gate of the Zhenguo Palace?"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Gu Qishen couldn't guess what was going on.
But in front of An Ruowan, he couldn't say much, so he could only wave his hand at Song Li.
"Nothing, I just heard that Miss Song had something to go back to. I wanted to get Miss Song back home safely, but I didn't expect that Miss An would come here specially."
In front of Song Li, Gu Qishen looked considerate.
Looking at this scene, Song Li didn't feel anything, but An Ruowan knew that Gu Qishen would never do such a thing for no reason.
"Thank you for your trouble, Second Prince. If there is nothing else to do, I will leave first."
Even though she was here, Song Li couldn't leave without saying hello, so she bowed to Gu Qishen before walking out.
Seeing this, Gu Qishen originally wanted to keep him, but he caught a glimpse of the figure on the side and swallowed back all the words that came to his lips. Even if he wanted to say it, he couldn't say it in front of An Ruowan.
Seeing both of them retreating, Gu Qishen punched the table with a hint of anger on his face.
The guards on the side were too scared to speak, for fear that Gu Qishen would vent his anger on him.
After An Ruowan and Song Li came out of the restaurant one after another, An Ruowan felt relieved a little.
"Cousin, remember this. Next time you encounter something like this, if you can't solve it, come look for me in the palace."
Before leaving, An Ruowan still worried and warned Song Li.
"knew."
There was a hint of helplessness on Song Li's face. She didn't quite understand why An Ruowan liked to worry about others so much at such a young age and had no children. He repeatedly assured her before getting on the carriage of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, but in her heart She also knew that An Ruowan was doing it for her own good.
An Ruowan watched her back disappear before heading towards Prince Rong's palace.
After coming around like this, An Ruowan was still thinking about Gu Qishen's inexplicable approach to Song Li.
After getting off the carriage, An Ruowan did not go back directly, but turned to the study.
Pushing the door open, Gu Beichen was practicing calligraphy with a pen in the room. When he saw her coming in, he put down the brush in his hand.
"Why do you look so ugly when you come back from the Duke's mansion? What happened?"
Gu Beichen said as he walked towards the door.
An Ruowan didn't expect the expression on her face to be so obvious. She covered her lips and coughed twice before telling everything about today's events.
"Do you suspect that the second prince is not well-intentioned?"
"It's surprising that a person like him can have such a good heart."
An Ruowan rolled her eyes unconsciously.
It was rare to see such a lively An Ruowan, and a smile appeared on Gu Beichen's face, "Do you want me to take action?"
