  Under the broad-brimmed hat, the man’s face was tensed and cold. Because his back was to the sun, Nan Zhi could not see his face and expression, even so, he was still perfect and moving.

  He stood at the cabin door, receiving the cheers of the people.

  He was exuding an aura like he was presiding over people, making people could not help but bow their heads in praise.

  Nan Zhi looked at him from afar, feeling strange and distant.

  It was not only distance but status as well.

  After the war, he seemed to have changed a lot.

  His aura was more cold and dignified and he was definitely high up in the air.

  There were several young girls standing beside Nan Zhi and the moment Mu Sihan came out of the helicopter, they could not help screaming and shouting.

  “The Fourth Prince is too handsome and cool!”


  “He’s like a male lead in an idol drama!”


  “Oh my God, the key is his aura, which can really awe the crowd!”


  “The Fourth Princess Consort is so blessed!”


  When Nan Zhi heard this, her lips lifted into a small smile.

  Although no one knew her relationship with him, privately, she was his woman.

  Nan Zhi looked down at the necklace around her neck. She had hung the ring as a pendant.

  He had become even better and she felt a sense of honor in her heart as well.

  “Who is the woman behind the Fourth Prince?”


  Nan Zhi’s smile froze when she heard the words of the young girl.

  She raised her head.

  Mu Sihan had begun to walk down and a beautiful figure appeared at the cabin door.

  The woman looked young. She was wearing a white lacy sheer dress and wearing a hat of the same color, which made her look delicate and elegant.

  “Oh, I heard that the neighboring country is sending the princess over to sign the peace treaty with our country. Could she be that princess?”


  “She must be. The princess looks mischievous and adorable. She’s been smiling the whole time!”


  “Although the Fourth Prince is married, the two of them looked quite compatible and pleasing to look at, standing together like that!”


  Nan Zhi’s gaze landed on the woman behind Mu Sihan.

  There were no fluctuations of emotions on Mu Sihan’s cold and handsome face. His lips were pursed and he looked cold.

  But the woman behind him, besides the smile on her face, her eyes fell on him from time to time……

  Nan Zhi was not a stranger to that kind of gaze.

  The hands that hung by her side tightened a little unconsciously. But on second thought, there was nothing to worry about.

  Did she need to doubt his feelings for her?

  When two people are together, the most important thing is to trust each other.

  He was so outstanding, it was natural for him to have admirers.

  What she needed to do was to trust him.

  After such a thought, Nan Zhi felt enlightened.

  After Mu Sihan and the princess got off the helicopter, the two of them walked towards Jinhan Palace under the cheers of the people.

  Nan Zhi sat at the first row and when Mu Sihan came over, she could finally see him closely.

  Watching him walking over with long strides step by step, her heart was almost jumping out of her throat.

  She cheered with the others but her gaze fell on him only.

  She wanted to shout his name to let him know she was standing here.

  In five steps, he would pass by her……

  Four steps, three steps, one step……

  Nan Zhi thought that his dark eyes would land on her for a second or two.

  But it didn’t and he walked straight past her with big strides.

  She could see his face clearly. His skin was a healthy tanned color, his face thin and sharp, his facial features well-defined and compared to before, he appeared to be even more masculine.

  But his eyes were colder than ever.

  Nan Zhi’s beating heart, sunk.

  It was like falling into an abyss.

  She watched his tall and cold back, breathing deeply and tried to adjust her mood……

  Nan Zhi did not leave immediately after the welcome ceremony.

  She stood alone there, her hands gripping the railings tightly, her thick and long eyelashes lowered, and there was a sadness and confusion in her almond-shaped eyes.

  “Zhizhi.”


  Nan Zhi raised her head slowly when she heard someone calling her. She looked at Shangguan Wan and bit her lip lightly. “Wan’er, is the woman who came back with him the princess of the neighboring country?”


  Shangguan Wan nodded. “Yes, she is representing A Country to sign the treaty.”


  “Wan’er, when Mu Sihan passed me, he didn’t look at me at all.”


  Shangguan Wan went forward and patted Nan Zhi’s arm gently. “Maybe there were too many people and he didn’t see you. Didn’t you notice that when he came back this time, his face was cold like ice and there was no hint of a smile in front of the Queen? He had not been on the battlefield before and this time he had seen many deaths. Maybe he has not adjusted his mental state yet!”


  Nan Zhi felt that what Shangguan Wan said made sense……

  At night.

  Qiao Yanze returned to the castle after attending the palace banquet.

  When Nan Zhi saw him, she rushed forward.

  Qiao Yanze saw her looking at him and flicked angrily at her forehead. “I know what you want to ask about. I didn’t have a chance to talk to him much at the banquet. But looking at him, he seemed to be even more wild and cold.”


  Nan Zhi bit her lips. “Then did he go back after the banquet?”


  “Why?” Qiao Yanze glared at Nan Zhi. “Don’t tell me you want to find him.”


  “Granduncle, it’s not Pretty Zhizhi, it’s Brother Jie who wants to see Daddy.” Xiaojie ran down from the stairs and blinked his big, black eyes at Qiao Yanze. “I want Pretty Zhizhi to take me to the palace to see Daddy!”


  Qiao Yanze touched Xiaojie’s head. “You can just protect your Mommy!”
……

  Qiao Yanze said it like that but he really doted on Nan Zhi.

  Despite having drunk a lot of wine in the evening and could not drive, he still escorted both mother and son to Crown Palace.

  Because of Xiaojie’s relationship with Shangguan Wan, Nan Zhi could enter and leave Crown Palace without a pass.

  The car stopped outside the Fourth Prince’s residence.

  After getting out of the car, Nan Zhi and Xiaojie went inside the palace.

  During the three months that Mu Sihan was absent, Nan Zhi would bring Xiaojie over from time to time, but never had she been so nervous as she was now.

  The servant told Nan Zhi that Shangguan Wan had returned to the Shangguan family and Mu Sihan was not back yet.

  “What’s Daddy doing, it’s so late and he’s still not back yet. Doesn’t he miss me and Pretty Zhizhi?” Xiaojie pouted his small lips.

  “He had just came back and must be busy.”


  Nan Zhi had just finished speaking when the sound of a car engine could be heard outside, and the servants rushed towards the door.

  “Pretty Zhizhi, it must be Daddy. Let’s go out as well.”


  Xiaojie took Nan Zhi’s hand, wanting to pull her outside but Nan Zhi drew back her hand and patted gently on the back of Xiaojie’s hand. “You go ahead, Mommy will wait in the living room.”
