Quick Travel: He is obviously cannon fodder but becomes a heartthrob

Song Song's droopy little face instantly lit up, and Lin Chengyuan could see her happiness through the curtain hat.

The little girl nodded eagerly, and a soft and waxy voice came from below, as if she was coquettishly saying, "Thank you, cousin."

Lin Chengyuan shook his head helplessly, but the corners of his mouth turned up at some point.Being in the palace for so long has not only failed to temper her temperament, but she has become more and more like a child who is not familiar with the world.

On the one hand, he was happy that she was innocent and kind, but on the other hand, he was afraid that she would be harmed in the palace if she was too innocent.

But she could see that although the two maids around her were extremely friendly and respectful to him on the surface, they actually looked at him with a bit of scrutiny and defensiveness.Lin Chengyuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that they must have protected her extremely well.

The man's eyes softened and he naturally led the way.

Song Song had not yet recovered from his happiness. He approached Lin Chengyuan enthusiastically and was eager to talk to him.

Probably because he is good-looking and has a very gentle aura, and being around him gives you a reassuring feeling.

Like a small animal, she will consciously find a safe existence.

Lin Chengyuan took Song Song to many places, some of which they had been to before, and some of them were newly opened stores, but without exception, each of them was a worthwhile trip.

Later, Lin Chengyuan wanted to take them to a restaurant for dinner, but Song Song touched his belly that had swollen for some time, waved his hands nonchalantly, and said that he could no longer eat.

The man didn't react at first, but when he saw the big and small bags of snacks in A Qi's hand, he understood and his eyes were full of smiles.

So, we had to give up on dinner.

Song Song ate a little too much and wanted to take a walk to eat, but before walking a few steps, he stopped again. He stared longingly at a store next to him, looked inside, then turned to look at Lin Chengyuan and Aqi Qier.

The wealthy man patted his chest, indicating that he could come in at will.Anyway, it's all the money rewarded by His Highness the Crown Prince, and all he wants is for the little queen to be happy.

When the empress is happy, His Royal Highness is happy, she is happy, and everyone is happy.

Isn't it just money? His Royal Highness has plenty of it.

Lin Chengyuan followed Song Song's gaze and saw that it was a jewelry store. From his point of view, he could only see a little bit of it, but he could vaguely see that there were some exquisite gadgets, which girls would like most.

His heart moved and he nodded.

After getting a positive answer, Song Song gave a small cheer and got in happily.

The small and exquisite jewelry seemed to be a fatal temptation for girls. As soon as they entered, the few people dropped all thoughts and happily picked it up.

Lin Chengyuan didn't understand much about this, so he just followed behind and watched them.

He looked around for a while, and suddenly his eyes stopped at a certain place and stopped in place.

That's a white jade hairpin.

Lin Chengyuan hesitated for a second, then called the clerk to take off the hairpin, and while the girls were having a heated fight, he bought the hairpin without saying a word.

The hairpin was packed in a small wooden box by the shopkeeper, exuding a faint scent of sandalwood.

Lin Chengyuan carefully stuffed it into his cuffs, feeling inexplicably at a loss when holding it in his hand.

He actually understands.This hairpin cannot be given away.

The relationship they had once was too special, and the gap now is even more like a chasm.

Earlier he could lie to himself that he was just traveling with his cousin.But now, as the curfew time gets closer and closer, those little fantasies used to deceive oneself and others have turned into nothing.

She was still the queen of the Zhou Dynasty, and as a minister, how could he hide his dirty thoughts.

This white jade hairpin was always stuck in his heart, reminding him not to do anything beyond his bounds.

But why, the more he didn't look at her, the more the emotions in his heart struggled to come out.

……

"Miss, the time is coming, we should go back." A Qi leaned close to Song Song's ear and whispered.

Song Song sighed reluctantly, but she still knew the right amount. She bit into the honey cake as if to vent her anger. After swallowing, she nodded obediently.

"Then... let's go. Thank you cousin for today." Song Song blinked his eyes gently, and his thick eyelashes also trembled.

Lin Chengyuan took a breath, but still maintained a warm smile.

"Okay. Qingqing...can you take a moment to speak before I leave?"

Song Song didn't answer in a hurry and looked at A Qi subconsciously. After the latter nodded, he agreed.

She followed Lin Chengyuan a few steps back, stopped and asked, "Cousin, what's the matter?"

Lin Chengyuan lowered his eyelids and looked at her pink and white face. It was as polished as when she was a child. It made people fall in love with her as soon as they saw it.

After dispelling his past memories, the man returned to his usual expression, with a hint of emotion in his eyes that Song Song couldn't see.

"A few days ago, Miss Helan from the Chengyang Marquis Mansion came to see me."

"She...asked me if she had done something wrong unintentionally and offended you. Please, sir, please let her go."

So this is what happened...

Song Song felt a little guilty and lowered his head silently.

It's all for the mission, otherwise she wouldn't be willing to torment people for no reason.

But since you do it, it will definitely offend people.

The little girl pursed her lips, raised her head, and asked very carefully: "Then... what did my cousin tell Miss Helan?"

What do you say?

Lin Chengyuan was in a daze for a moment.

That day, He Lanyan came to see him. As soon as she saw him, she knelt down and cried, begging the Queen to let her go.

Lin Chengyuan rarely gets angry, but he got angry that day.Since the marriage is His Majesty's will, what does it have to do with the Queen?

Later, he realized that he was overly excited and apologized to He Lanyan, finally trying to persuade her.

He Lanyan listened to his advice and knew that her purpose of coming here had not been achieved. After sitting there for a short time, she wiped away her tears and left.

The little girl's eager look pulled him back, and Lin Chengyuan sighed, "Of course I'm telling the truth."

"Qingqing, the people in the palace are sinister, but not all people outside may be kind. You must be more careful in the future."

"If you meet me in the palace, you'd better not call me cousin."

Song Song recalled the man's instructions in the Royal Garden that day, and quickly nodded in assurance.

"Just remember."

Originally, he should have waved her away, but he was unable to say goodbye.

The small wooden box in his hand seemed to be emitting scorching heat, which almost made his palms burn.

In the end, he swallowed all the words.

Just one sentence.

"I hope you will be well, safe and happy in the future."

The little girl said goodbye to him and left behind the two maids.

Lin Chengyuan stood there, looking at the small silhouette.

He used to watch her leave and go home, looking forward to her coming out to play with him every day.Now he watches her return to the palace and wishes her a happy life.
