Gu Jingheng appears to be as gentle as jade, but in reality he is vindictive and will repay any wrong done to him tenfold.
She had just lost her composure because of those nightmares, and even offended him in public. She was afraid that she was dead.
Nan Yuan knelt on the ground, her arms shaking uncontrollably, not knowing whether it was because of fear or for some other reason.
Gu Jingheng's eyes darkened as he looked at Nan Yuan, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a moment, he curled the corners of his lips slightly and said, "Miss Nan Yuan was not feeling well and did not attend the banquet. My sister was very worried about her and asked me to come and see her.
Now that I see her, I can see that she is indeed ill, weak as a willow, and even her strength is... so little."
Nan Yuan clenched the handkerchief in her hand, feeling that Gu Jingheng's words had a hidden meaning, as if he had noticed that she was pretending to be sick and was deliberately not going.
"Get up quickly, the ground is cold. You have just recovered from a cold. If your old illness relapses and you miss this spring outing, it will be a waste of time." Gu Jingheng said with a smile.
Spring outing?
Nan Yuan was a little confused, but she suppressed her doubts for the time being.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Perhaps it was because her legs were numb from kneeling for too long, or because Gu Jingheng’s words just now disturbed her mind, but Nan Yuan tried to stand up twice but failed. In the end, she was able to stand up straight with the help of Yue Ran.
After Nan Yuan stood up, she took two steps back and kept a distance from Gu Jingheng.
She waited for Gu Jingheng to explain what happened today, and then sent him out of the house properly.
Gu Jingheng lowered his eyes and looked at the person opposite him presumptuously. His little kite didn't look right, as if... it was very afraid of him.
When he was drunk, he only guessed that Nan Yuan had memories of her past life like him, but now he was sure of it.
Nan Yuan not only recovered her memories of her previous life, but also wanted to escape from him.
But it doesn't matter, as long as she is still here, she will be his sooner or later, it's just a matter of more effort.
But the people of the Nan family are really bad at taking care of people. Look at how skinny their little Fengzheng is. When he held her arm just now, there was only a bag of bones left.
And that waist, even with such thick clothes on, he felt he could hold it with one hand.
After a long time, the person in front of me began to speak.
"Your Highness, what is the matter that brings you here?"
Gu Jingheng looked at the red lips of the person in front of him opening and closing. He didn't hear what was said. He was just thinking about how to block this mouth.
As expected, she was the person he had been thinking about for so many years. As soon as she appeared in front of him, that incident was the only thing left in his mind.
"His Royal Highness?"
Nan Yuan frowned slightly. If she didn't want to stay with Gu Jingheng any longer, she would never have spoken to him.
But now she had spoken twice in a row and there was no response from Gu Jingheng. If she spoke again, she was afraid that she would annoy him.
But if she didn't ask, she would always stay under the same roof with Gu Jingheng.
The longer you stay, the more likely something will go wrong.
Just as Nan Yuan was hesitating whether to speak, Gu Jingheng had already walked slowly to her side.
"Aunt..."
Yue Ran was about to open her mouth to remind him, but the Crown Prince's frosty eyes locked onto her, and she swallowed the words silently.
By the time Nan Yuan reacted, Gu Jingheng was already standing in front of her. The warm afternoon sun was shining on him, and the loose hair on his forehead was reflected in circles of light.
He looked down at Nan Yuan, his peach blossom eyes sparkling and affectionate, the curve of his mouth seemed to be smiling, and the two completely opposite emotions of affection and indifference were perfectly blended in him.
It was this complex emotion in him that made Nan Yuan involuntarily moved by him when she met him again at the banquet hosted by the eldest princess.
In his previous life, he had someone pass a message to her.
At that time, there were so many noble ladies, but he only called her. She thought that Gu Jingheng had different feelings for her after all, so she followed him to the back garden full of hope.
She followed Gu Jingheng's footsteps, but he suddenly turned around, and she was caught off guard and fell into his arms.
She blushed and was about to step back, but he held her in his arms and spoke in a deep voice from above her head: "Little Feng Kite, will you follow me from now on?"
Nan Yuan was stunned for a moment, because no one had ever called her like that before. Others would at most call her "Yuan'er" affectionately, but he called her "Little Kite".
But she had no time to care about the difference in the address, her heart was focused on what he said.
How about following him?
Follow him...
The teachings she received since childhood did not allow her to nod, but that person was him.
She looked up and fell into those bright and affectionate peach blossom eyes. There was only her in his eyes, full of love.
She mistakenly thought that he was also in love with her and nodded involuntarily.
Since then, my whole life has been wasted.
Nan Yuan shook her head, trying to wake up from the demons of her past life.
When she came back to her senses, she heard a familiar voice from above her head: "What did Xiao Fengzheng say just now? I didn't hear it clearly."
He bent down and looked at her at eye level, so close that their noses were almost touching.
The warm breath brushed against her face, and Nan Yuan's whole body stiffened. Her face turned pale in an instant, and she suddenly took a step back before she could catch her breath.
How could he call by this name?
Could it be that he also...
No, no, no, if he came back too, given his selfish and cold nature, how could he still talk to her calmly here?
He also called me by this name when he first saw me in his previous life. Perhaps it was because the word "Yuan" easily reminded people of kites.
Nan Yuan comforted herself and calmed herself down, then she heard Gu Jingheng's voice again.
"I don't know how I have offended you. Why are you so afraid of me?"
Gu Jingheng slowly straightened up and looked at Nan Yuan with evil amusement, deliberately teasing her.
Nan Yuan clutched the robe hanging by her side tightly, her pretty eyebrows slightly frowned, and her voice trembled as she explained: "My relatives, even my parents, have never called me like this, so I was a little out of control."
Gu Jingheng took a step forward, lowered his head, stared into Nan Yuan's eyes, and asked seriously, "Then how do your family members call you, Gu? You can learn."
Nan Yuan's breathing stagnated a little, and she didn't dare to look Gu Jingheng in the eye. She knew very well that Gu Jingheng's words were just to tease her.
But he acted like a gentleman. If she had any violent reaction, outsiders would think it was her fault.
"Huh? Why don't you speak?"
Nan Yuan remained silent. She couldn't respond to this at all.
"Your Highness, may you be well and safe."
The voices of Nan's father and mother sounded like gods descending from heaven to Nan Yuan's ears.
Nan Yuan consciously stood behind Nan's mother, keeping a long distance from Gu Jingheng.
Gu Jingheng just looked at Nan Yuan's actions deeply and did not make any other moves.
"Doctor Nan, Madam Nan, please stand up. I am only here to pass on a message for my elder sister. My elder sister has just acquired a house in the eastern suburbs. She is very happy and wants to invite your daughter to visit it together.
My sister was not feeling well at the last banquet and was unable to attend, which was very regretful for her.
Miss Nan, please don’t be absent from this outing!”
Gu Jingheng said his last words while looking at Nan Yuan.
