Before she could react, there was already a rice bowl in front of her. The white rice was steaming and exuded the faint fragrance of rice.
Suddenly, his deep, unmistakable command sounded in my ears, "Eat."
"I'm not hungry." Su Chen reacted immediately. Just as she was about to stand up from his lap, a hand with distinct knuckles came across her waist and held it there. She couldn't move even though he didn't exert any force.
The sudden intimacy between the two made Su Chen a little embarrassed. When she looked back and saw his focused and serious expression, she was a little at a loss.
He raised his fingers and brushed the broken hair on her forehead. When their skin touched, they both shrank slightly.
At this moment, his eyes flashed with a flickering light, and he suddenly leaned over and held her in his arms. His other hand reached to the table, picked up the food and handed it to her mouth.
Su Chen was stunned, her back pressed against his warm and solid chest, and an incredible blush spread across her face.
Opening her mouth slightly, she took the dish he held to her mouth and ate it.
Xia Li lowered his eyes and watched her obediently eat the dishes one by one. His frowning eyebrows relaxed, the corners of his mouth curved into a beautiful curve, and the hand around her waist tightened unconsciously.
Lu Yan walked in from the outside and accidentally saw the intimacy between the two, and immediately wanted to avoid it with some embarrassment.
Xia Li looked up and asked in a low voice, "How is Hu Lan's condition?"
Lu Yan, who was about to walk out, suddenly stopped and replied respectfully: "Hu Lan was infected with wind and cold. The doctor said that she seemed to be in good health, but in fact she had been exhausted a long time ago. It was caused by hard work in the early years, so
As soon as she catches the cold, she becomes violent. The doctor also told her that Hu Lan should not work any more for the time being, let alone move, especially because he is afraid of the bumpy journey. If he can rest, he'd better rest, otherwise..."
"Otherwise, what will happen?" Su Chen was shocked when he heard Lu Yan's words. He couldn't hide the anxious look on his face. He immediately pushed away the food in front of him and stood up from Xia Li's arms.
"Otherwise, the condition will get worse and I'm afraid I won't be able to survive." When Lu Yan said this, he lowered his eyes slightly, but the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably. These words were not what he said, but the prince had told him early in the morning.
, don’t necessarily make Hu Lan’s illness serious.
When Su Chen heard this, a look of annoyance and anxiety appeared on his face.
Unexpectedly, Hu Lan would become so seriously ill?!
She worked hard during the New Year celebrations in the early years, presumably because of Su Chen. In ancient times, a woman had to raise a child who was still so young. Needless to say, it was bitter and difficult.
This was what Su Chen owed to Hu Lan before, and now that she has taken over Su Chen's body, she should compensate Hu Lan for everything he suffered.
The little hands hanging on the side of the clothes were tightly held.
Since Hu Lan is so seriously ill, she should cancel her plan to leave here.
If she is alone, she can go anywhere, and she is healthy and is not afraid of the bumps in the journey. However, Hu Lan is sick and cannot bear the bumps. The most important thing is that when she leaves here, everything outside needs to be reorganized, Hu Lan
It is not suitable for Lan to leave the palace at this time.
Hu Lan was left alone in the palace with illness, and she was worried because no one would take care of her.
After thinking for a while, she decided that she still wanted to stay and take care of Hu Lan. She couldn't leave Hu Lan alone at this time. If she wanted to leave, at least she had to wait until Hu Lan's condition improved.
Xia Li saw the change of expression on her face, and a glint flashed through her slightly drooped eyes. Su Chen suddenly turned around without saying a word, with a trace of struggle on his face, hesitating for a moment and said: "
I want to stay in Prince Li's Mansion, no matter what I do, can you let me stay?"
Su Chen felt that she was really shameless for a moment, but she had no choice. She couldn't leave Hu Lan alone.
Xia Li asked calmly: "Is it okay no matter what I do?"
Su Chen nodded, with a rare solemn look on his face, "Yes, you can do whatever you want."
Xia Li curled his lips and said, "If you want to stay, it's not impossible." He paused and said, "Go to Butler Wang and go through the matters of entering the mansion again."
Su Chen didn't expect that he would agree so readily. She thought that he would at least make things difficult for her or ridicule her just like before.
This result made her feel a little confused. Is this too easy?
As soon as I walked out of Jifengju, I met the concierge.
The concierge looked hurriedly and hurriedly entered Jifeng Residence.
Su Chen didn't pay attention, so he followed Xia Li's instructions and walked to Butler Wang.
Although Butler Wang was surprised as to why she didn't leave, but continued to stay? But he heard that it was the prince who made the first decision, so he immediately arranged for her to enter the palace without saying a word.
Su Chen was actually very depressed. She just got out of slavery yesterday and had not yet lived the free life she imagined. It had only been one day, but she didn't expect that things were unpredictable. Today she became a slave of Prince Li's Mansion again.
When passing by the garden, a group of people walked in front of her, walking toward her talking and laughing.
Su Chen frowned, when did Prince Li's Mansion become so lively?
He lowered his head and was just about to avoid it when he suddenly heard a teasing voice coming from in front of him, "Aren't you the girl who fell into the sunset?"
Su Chen was startled for a moment, then raised his head, and saw a tall and tall figure walking over.
He walked over with his back to the sun. Looking at it from Su Chen's perspective, the sun was dazzling, so he couldn't see his face clearly.
His big eyes narrowed slightly. Before he could see who the person was, the person spoke again, with a hint of understanding in his tone, "So you are the girl from Xia Li's house, no wonder."
Su Chen felt baffled. No wonder? No wonder?
"Where is Li, take Gu there." Xuanyuan Hao's eyes fell on her clothes and he ordered naturally.
Su Chen finally remembered who this guy was?
It turns out that he is the prince of Xuanyuan Kingdom whom he met at the lake that day?!
Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Hao stood still in front of her. She raised her gaze and glanced at his face, confirming that this guy was indeed Xuanyuan Hao who was standing by the lake looking at the scenery that day.
"Are you looking for the prince?" Su Chen turned slightly and pointed in the direction of Jifengju, "The prince is at Jifengju. Walk straight from here and pass by a lake."
After saying that, before Xuanyuan Hao could react, he raised his feet and prepared to dodge.
Xuanyuan Hao couldn't believe it and couldn't help but said: "Is this how a servant from Prince Li's Mansion neglects an honored guest?"
Su Chen's mouth twitched, this guy is really arrogant, he actually said he was a distinguished guest?!
She had to rush back to the servants' room to see Hu Lan. She didn't have time to chat with this arrogant man, so she said casually: "Prince Li's hospitality is to treat guests equally, without distinction between high and low. If you want to see the prince, please
