The paper man I raised is a dragon boss

A person without feelings.

Nan Xiao felt a dull pain in his heart after he finished saying this, but he didn't realize the cause of the pain, so he could only frown and hold the teacup, trying to hide his emotions.

The temperature of the fragrant tea is just right, but it tastes bitter when swallowed.

Nan Xiao couldn't help but clenched the wall of the cup, the knuckles of his fingers turned blue and white.

He could feel that Han Yuan's gaze fixed on his face retracted quite a bit after he finished saying this.

But the more forbearing and restrained the other party's eyes were, the more shockingly profound they became. Nan Xiao even guessed absurdly that Han Yuan didn't want to hear him say that.

Because after the other party finally opened his mouth to answer slowly, the ending sound was unusually hoarse.

"It turns out that His Highness thinks so."

Nan Xiao lowered his eyelashes, and a voice in his heart urged him to explain.

"...I mean, if you said this to my royal father today because of the solid alliance between the empire and the dragon clan, then it is completely unnecessary."

"There are other better ways to stabilize the alliance, without having to tie up your own marriage—"

"Not for this."

Before Nan Xiao could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the other party in a low voice.

He blinked his eyes slightly in surprise, and his eyes made brief contact with Han Yuan.

The other party's long and narrow phoenix eyes were almost burning with cold flames, but they were sealed by a layer of ice, so they didn't directly burn him.

"I reintroduced the marriage contract to His Majesty, not for the purpose of stabilizing the alliance between the Dragon Clan and the Empire, nor for any military or political considerations, nor for any other reason."

"I don't want to get engaged to someone I don't love. Of course, my promise is always valid, and the engagement will not bind you. If you don't want to, you can tell me at any time, and I will mention it to Your Majesty."

A gust of hot air exploded from the chest cavity.

Rao is Nan Xiao's mother who is single, no matter how slow he is about emotional matters, he can still hear the meaning of Han Yuan's words.

You don't want to be engaged to someone you don't love.

Isn't that—

"Gudong Gudong Gudong".

Nan Xiao's mind was completely blank under panic, he didn't know how to react, he could only pick up the teacup as much as possible, and filled the cup with water in one go.

I drank too much and accidentally choked on it.

The young man's complexion was already fair, and after coughing a few times, the blush on his cheeks became particularly obvious.

The slender eyelashes were wet with a layer of water vapor, and the roots were distinct, as if they had been greatly wronged.

"Your Highness..."

"Don't—" Nan Xiao paused for a while, "Don't call me a doctor."

As soon as the doctor came, he had to recuperate when he was not sick, and even a minor illness would become a serious illness.

"What you just mentioned, I temporarily..." He organized his words, "I haven't thought about it yet, so...I can't give you an answer for the time being."

Nan Xiao looked up at Han Yuan.

I have to admit that from the first time I saw him in the game, Han Yuan's face surprised him a little.

The appearance of the other party cannot be said to be very similar to the rumored Han Yuan, it has nothing to do with it.

And as far as their relationship is concerned, the Han Yuan he saw was not the cruel and violent person in the rumors.

A taciturn but gentle person who was willing to take risks for the enslaved goblin and rescued him several times, could not match up with the rumored person who killed captives at every turn.

but……

He couldn't tell.

He wanted to see a real Han Yuan, but he was not sure if what he saw was the real Han Yuan.

In many cases, the admiration at first sight is not enough to overwhelm reason, and it makes people rush into it.

He needs time, I don't know how long it will take, it may be days, months, or even years.

Nan Xiao felt that he should tell the other party his true thoughts.

It should also be pointed out.

I don't know when I can give you an answer, and I don't know when I get an answer, whether that answer is what you want.

If you have someone else you like halfway, don't delay because of me——

That's what he thought in his heart, but when he said it, he only said that he had seen the rumors on Xingwang before and pretended to be seriously ill to get the divorce.

The sentence "If you have someone else you like halfway through", he seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't say a word.

Why don't you say it?

Nan Xiao was taken aback by the possible selfish thoughts in his heart, and the blush on the tips of his ears became more and more gorgeous.

But Han Yuan didn't seem to notice his strangeness, and only solemnly replied in a low voice.

"Well, I'm waiting for your reply—I'll stay in the imperial capital to deal with the Dragon Clan's affairs during this time. I'd like to ask your opinion on some matters. I may have to visit you from time to time. Do you mind?"

Nan Xiao shook his head and suddenly asked a question.

"...why are you asking for my opinion?"

In the eyes of most of the ministers, he, the little prince, just had a reputation, and he was lucky enough to be born in the royal family when he was reincarnated.

Don't talk about major events such as the alliance between the Dragon Clan and the Empire, even the usual regular meetings, whether he goes or not is a background board.

No one will ask him, no one will care about his opinion.

It seems that since he was born with a severe cold disease, he has been equated with the word "trash".

Han Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not answer him directly, his voice was warm and deep.

"Your Highness told me just now that you always thought I was like the rumors, right?"

Nan Xiao nodded.

"Before I met His Highness, my impression of His Highness was the same as the rumors. He couldn't stand his shoulders, couldn't lift his hands, arrogant and coquettish, and was a sick child living on the status of a prince."

Nan Xiao breathed heavily for a moment.

"If you didn't pretend to be sick and divorced, I would also directly write a letter requesting to cancel the engagement."

"But after getting to know you, I know that you and the one in the rumors are basically two people. You can think of a way to remind His Majesty of the abnormality of the dragon clan, and you will think of a proper way to rescue the goblins in the mining area."

"The anomaly of the dragon clan will threaten the alliance with the empire, and it will also bring unstable factors to the marginal planets. But this matter is best handled in secret. Compared with others, you know these things better, and of course it is better object of discussion."

Nan Xiao clenched his palms and took a few deep breaths before suppressing the trembling in his heart.

That's right, he himself has become unrecognizable in the rumors.

Since he wanted to see the real Han Yuan, he should throw away those stereotypes and only trust his own eyes.

The youth's dark almond eyes suddenly brightened a little, shining like obsidian under the warm light.

Just as he was about to say something, there were two knocks on the door.

"Your Highness, it's time for you to drink your medicine."

"okay, I get it."

Being interrupted like this, Nan Xiao completely forgot what he wanted to say just now.

On the contrary, Han Yuan got up slowly: "Your Highness rested late last night, and he hurried into the palace to see His Majesty again this morning. He must be tired. I will come to discuss with His Highness tomorrow about the Dragon Clan."

Nan Xiao let out a "huh".

"I'm not very sleepy, and I will pick up the little dragon cub from the game later - I'll send you off."

◎The author has something to say:

Han Yuan: ...So my wife only knows that I am an NPC? Doesn't she know that the little dragon cub is also me?
