Although he said that, Xiao Cen still looked back every few steps as he left. That scene made Lin Chunhuan feel that it would not be bad if he could live like this in this life.

With Butler Yu around, she didn't need to worry about all the items needed for the return visit. Lin Chunhuan just went through the motions with the gift list, silently estimating the time in her mind.

"Oh, it seems that the prince is back."

Butler Yu beside him suddenly spoke, and Lin Chunhuan subconsciously turned his head to follow his gaze, and saw at a glance the luxurious carriage that was parked in front of the palace gate.

It was luxury in the truest sense, requiring four horses to pull it, and the rear compartment was spacious enough to accommodate four or five people lying down.

In the Prince of Pingyang's Palace, only the Crown Prince Xiao Jinan would use such luxurious things.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Xiao Jinan walked out. Looking at that familiar face, Lin Chunhuan's hands holding the gift list slowly clenched uncontrollably.

It wasn't until his long nails scratched her palm and left a bloody mark that he came to his senses.

After all, they are not biological father and son, and Xiao Jinan and Xiao Cen really don't look alike at all.

Xiao Cen is tall, with a cold and stern temperament, but he is not a cold person. Especially when dealing with people close to him, he seems to be unusually easy to talk to, calm and gentle.

Xiao Jinan, on the other hand, looks like a typical scholar. He has a well-shaped face, but it has a bit of a masculine and feminine look. He lacks masculinity and is too beautiful.

Not only that, Xiao Jinan always has a cold face, and the indifference between his eyebrows makes him seem unkind.

Of course, Xiao Jinan’s indifference can sometimes be unexpected, like now.

After he got off the carriage, he reached out his hand again and led a woman out from inside with extremely gentle movements. The woman was dressed in fluttering white clothes and looked gentle and quiet.

However, the woman's grace was too superficial. When she looked at Xiao Jinan, the greed and commercialism in her eyes could not be concealed at all.

Lin Chunhuan suddenly realized that she had trapped herself in the past. She regarded Qingcheng as a serious threat in her mind and heart. She was jealous and resentful that Qingcheng had stolen her husband, and she was completely blinded by anger.

Now that I have taken myself out of the situation and looked at Qingcheng again, I discovered that this woman is not as ethereal and pure as she seemed. She is clearly just an acquaintance.

Lin Chun smiled and shook her head. Looking at Xiao Jinan's doting and complacent expression, she knew that she guessed right.

I don’t know what’s going on with Xiao Jinan. Maybe he was afraid that Qingcheng would be unhappy, so he deliberately didn’t listen to the details of the wedding and didn’t let people around him ask about it.

Perhaps it was the person who could talk to Xiao Jinan, but he didn't know what his mentality was, so he didn't say a word in front of him.

In short, Xiao Jinan and Qingcheng should not know about the changes in their marriage yet.

"You are Lin Chunhuan."

Xiao Jinan walked forward, and when he saw the face of the person in front of him clearly, his originally arrogant tone unconsciously slowed down a bit. It seemed that he had not expected that his replaced Crown Prince's Consort would be so beautiful.

After a pause, he cleared his throat and said, "Forget it. Since you have already married into the palace, it's a done deal. As long as you promise to get along well with Qingcheng from now on, this prince will not tolerate you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chunhuan didn't react.

After all, she had heard it once in her previous life.

However, Qingcheng on the side changed her expression slightly. According to their original statement, Xiao Jinan should have driven the woman away, but now they are living in peace.

Qingcheng was definitely a smart person. She understood Xiao Jinan's thoughts instantly and even tightened her hand that was holding the corner of his clothes.

Lin Chunhuan found it funny, "I am Lin Chunhuan, yes, but..."

Looking past Xiao Jinan and towards Qingcheng behind him, Lin Chunhuan smiled maliciously, "Is this girl the Qingcheng that the prince mentioned? But who is she? Why should I live in peace with her?"

She deliberately did not call herself a princess, and was happy to see Xiao Jinan misunderstand her.

Things turned out just as Lin Chunhuan had expected.

Xiao Jinan had shown a somewhat good face to Lin Chunhuan before because of her appearance, but after hearing that Lin Chunhuan was unwilling to acknowledge Qingcheng's identity, his face turned completely cold.

The affair between him and Qingcheng caused a sensation in the capital.

Xiao Jinan himself knew that the reason why the Lin family was unwilling to let the favored Lin Chunuan marry in and replaced her with the unfavored Lin Chunhuan was mostly because of Qingcheng.

Therefore, he had never considered the possibility that Lin Chunhuan didn't know about Qingcheng, and only regarded it as a deliberate humiliation by Lin Chunhuan.

He immediately held Qingcheng in his arms and said, "I am willing to let you and Qingcheng live in peace. I am giving you face. Since you don't want this face."

Xiao Jinan glanced at the carriage outside the gate and sneered, "Since you don't want this face, I, Xiao Jinan, will not acknowledge your identity as the new bride of the palace."

"Today is your return, so you can go back by yourself."

It is a huge joke for a woman to return home alone. If such a thing really happens, not only the bride but also her entire family will be implicated, and they will say that the girl was not taught well, which is why the new son-in-law is unwilling to marry her.

People will poke holes in your back whenever you go back to school.

In this world, it is too easy to control a woman. Xiao Jinan was sure that Lin Chunhuan would not want such a thing to happen, so he raised his chin proudly and said, "There is more."

"Since this prince does not recognize you, you are not allowed to take anything prepared by the palace."

As soon as Xiao Jinan finished speaking, he took Qingcheng's hand and pretended to go into the palace. However, after taking only two steps, he bumped into Xiao Cen who was walking out.

Xiao Jinan obviously didn't expect that Xiao Cen would be in the mansion at this time, and subconsciously let go of Qingcheng's hand. Seeing this scene, Lin Chunhuan just felt funny.

It's funny that in her previous life, she invested almost her entire life in such a thing.

A man who has no sense of responsibility at all!

"Father!" Xiao Jin'an was obviously a little nervous when facing Xiao Cen, his whole body was stretched straight, "Aren't you in Qishan suppressing bandits? How come..."

Seeing this good-for-nothing adopted son and remembering how he had brought so much humiliation upon Ah Huan, Xiao Cen felt quite angry and took a few deep breaths before he refrained from using family discipline to punish him on the spot.

"You've done such shameless things, and yet you still care about me."

Xiao Cen's tone was very heavy, which frightened Xiao Jinan again, "No... No, that's not what my son meant."

"That's all."

Xiao Cen exhaled, "We'll talk about your matter when you come back. Have you met your mother?"

Mother concubine?

What mother?

Seeing Xiao Jinan's bewildered look, Xiao Cen became even more furious, "I raised you to this age, hired a famous teacher as your teacher, but you can't even learn the basics of filial piety!"

"Don't be angry, my lord."

Seeing that the time was almost right, Lin Chunhuan stepped forward and gently patted Xiao Cen on the back, narrowing his eyes and blatantly watching the joke, "The child is young, he will learn it after a little more teaching."
