Chapter 138: Poor Nalan Cui

She felt guilty when she remembered that no one had brought him food recently.

She broke free from Gu Ruoyun’s hand and jumped to his side.

Nalan Cui looked at the rabbit at his feet with a gloomy expression.

Su Yan had never seen him like this before and unconsciously took a step back.

Nalan Cui extended his hand towards her and Su Yan bit the bottom of his pants and walked out.

Nalan Cui looked at the crown prince, who was sitting high on the throne. No one paid attention to him, so he followed it obediently.

Outside, Su Yan brought him to the place where the inner guards had brought him food.

She called out a few times, wanting to tell him that someone would bring him food in the future.

Nalan Cui saw the rabbit’s strange behavior and grabbed it.

Su Yan did not struggle. She shook her ears and stayed in his arms. This was a loving child. He definitely would not want to eat such a cute rabbit like her.

It was not until Nalan Cui picked up the firewood, lit it, and grabbed her.

Only then did Su Yan believe that he really wanted to eat it.

She struggled in panic and looked at her surroundings. It was the place where they had met previously.

He heaved a sigh of relief. After struggling, Su Yan slowly took out a potato from the hole at the side and pushed it to him.

Nalan Cui frowned. Only he and Su Yan knew about this place.

Su Yan tried her best to reveal her identity.

Nalan Cui licked his lips and suddenly said, “Sister.”

Su Yan’s eyes lit up and her rabbit-like lips curled into a strange smile.

Nalan Cui accepted this matter without any psychological obstacles.

He picked Su Yan up and said, “I thought big sister didn’t want me anymore.”

These words made Su Yan’s heartache and she quickly reached out her claws to comfort him.

Nalan Cui looked at Su Yan who was in his arms and a strange light rose in his eyes. He then brought her back to the Cold Palace.

Gu Ruoyun had been following behind them the entire time. When he saw that it was almost time, he was about to bring her home.

Nalan Cui quietly looked at Gu Ruoyun and heard him ask, “Where’s that rabbit?”

He then turned to look at the rabbit which was digging the soil.

Gu Ruoyun did not care about the mess on its body. He immediately picked it up and left the imperial palace.

Just as he was about to leave, a rabbit rushed back with a flower in its mouth.

Just now, Nalan Cui had said with a gloomy expression that no one had ever given him a flower before.

Su Yan then ran out to find this flower for him to make him happy.

Nalan Cui was indeed smiling very happily. It was not because of this flower, but because Su Yan would be his in the future.

Nalan Cui, who had never held a rabbit before, had never let go of Su Yan on that day.

Su Yan noticed that it was already very late, so she told Nalan Cui that she was leaving.

Nalan Cui smiled and nodded.

His well-behaved behavior made Su Yan feel like a mother. She walked out of the Cold Palace and called out a few times, but she did not see Gu Ruoyun.

She felt strange and followed the small path towards the imperial palace. She had only walked a short distance when she was discovered.

Su Yan quickly ran away. A group of maids and eunuchs were chasing after her.

Nalan Cui appeared in time and hid to the side with her in his arms.

Su Yan’s expression was a little downcast.

Nalan Cui asked, “Sister, are you looking for Guang Pingwang?”

Su Yan nodded and wanted him to bring her to Gu Ruoyun.

Nalan Cui stroked her head and said, “Guang Pingwang has left the palace a long time ago.”

Su Yan waited in disbelief before a wave of anger rose in her eyes.

Nalan Cui smiled and said, “Sister, why don’t you stay with me in the imperial palace?”

Without waiting for her reply, Nalan Cui carried her into the Cold Palace.

Su Yan was immersed in her anger as she cursed Gu Ruoyun in her heart.

Nalan Cui took good care of Su Yan. Not only did he give her his place to sleep, he even gave her his only blanket.

This made Su Yan feel a little guilty. She moved aside and gestured for Nalan Cui to sleep with her.

The next day, a few eunuchs suddenly came to the Cold Palace where no one usually came.

They were holding a tray with a cup of wine on it.
