Hearing An Xuetang’s words, Mo Yunjing couldn’t help but chuckle softly. His low and husky voice, with a hint of charm that was both alluring and intoxicating, replied:
“Tangtang, where is your mind wandering off to? Your husband said he wanted to spend some time with you. It’s just that he wants to walk around the manor with you. Your face is so red, could it be that you’re thinking of something else?”
“! ”
This man… An Xuetang only felt her face getting even hotter!
It is undeniable that she had thought of somewhere else just now.
The next instant, she looked up into Mo Yunjing’s eyes, which seemed to smile yet not smile. She instantly realized that she had been tricked.
“Mo Yun Jing!! You bullied me again, just wait till I get my hands on you!”
A’n Xuetang’s furious voice echoed from inside the house. Yunliu and Ning’er, who were guarding outside the courtyard, exchanged glances.
Ninger suddenly realized something, quickly turned her head away as if that glance had never happened.
Yunliu helplessly rubbed his nose. He wasn’t in a hurry, anyway, no matter what, Ninger was at least still by his side. They had time, and he shouldn’t scare her away.
After all, finding someone who has already run away can be quite a hassle.
Thinking this way, Yunliu was surprisingly calm.
After regaining her composure, Ning’er listened to the sounds in the room, her brow furrowing slightly.
The Empress’s voice, which had been slightly angry, was cut off as if by an unseen force. Now she could only make muffled sounds. Ning’er wasn’t new to guarding here, so she knew exactly what those sounds meant.
Knowing what was going on, she couldn’t help but worry. The princess was pregnant, wouldn’t the king do something to her at this time?
Thinking of this, Ning’er raised her foot to knock on the door. Yunliu saw her moving towards the door and immediately reached out to stop her.
Ning’er lowered her head to look at the arm he was clutching, and said coldly, “Let go.”
“Ninger, what do you want to do? The Prince likely doesn’t want anyone to disturb him and his Princess.”
Although Yunliu’s heart was drawn to Ninger, he did not forget his duty. As the prince’s personal guard, he naturally had to stop Ninger at this time.
Ning’er’s brow remained tightly furrowed. She glanced at the closed door and then gave Yunliu a cold stare. “The Princess is pregnant. During the first three months of pregnancy, she cannot…cannot have overly intimate contact with the Prince.”
Speaking of this, Ninger’s cheeks flushed slightly. Despite her rationality, she was still a girl who had not yet left the family, and she would be shy about certain things.
Yunliu heard Ning’er say this, first stunned for a moment. After reacting, seeing Ning’er’s slightly flushed cheeks, he let out a chuckle.
His smile only made Ning’er angrier. She had no idea what he was laughing at, nor did she understand why he found anything amusing in this situation.

Just then, the door to the room suddenly opened and Mo Yunjing led An Xuetang out of the house.
At this moment, Ning’er hadn’t had time to pull her hand away from Yunliu’s, so as soon as Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang stepped out, their gazes landed precisely on the spot where the two were touching.
Mo Yunjing’s eyes didn’t change much, but An Xuetang’s eyes showed a hint of an aunt’s smile. She glanced meaningfully at Yunliu, her eyes seemed to say: You kid is pretty quick on your feet.
Ninger looked at An Xue Tang subconsciously when she walked out, so naturally she wouldn’t miss those emotions in her eyes.
Following An Xue Tang’s gaze, Ning’er noticed Yun Liu still gripping her arm. Thinking back to the teasing look in their own princess’s eyes, she immediately flung Yun Liu’s hand away and, forcing herself to calm down, curtsied to An Xue Tang and Mo Yun Jing.
An Xuetang didn’t expose him, she smiled and said, “Ning’er, let’s go shopping.”
Ning’er was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. “Yes.”
When it came to shopping, they had been in the capital for some time and hadn’t really gone out. She had wanted to stop the princess from going shopping today, but considering the prince was accompanying her, she didn’t say anything.
Now that King of the Northern Frontier has such power, an ordinary person really wouldn’t be able to harm his wife.
Thus thinking, the slight tension in her heart eased.
Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang didn’t bring many people out, only Yunliu and Ninger were with them.
As soon as the group arrived in the most bustling area, An Xuetang spotted candied hawthorns. She wasn’t particularly fond of them, but for some reason today, seeing those candied hawthorns made her think: I want to eat one!
With that in mind, she looked longingly at Mo Yunjing.
She hadn’t looked at him with such eyes in a long time. Mo Yunjing raised an eyebrow, thoughtfully looking at the vendor selling candied fruit on a stick, his lips curving slightly, “Want some?”
An Xuetang didn’t hesitate at all and immediately replied, “Yeah, I want to eat it, really badly.”
Mo Yunjing led her forward, Mo Yunjing personally picked out a string of candied fruit for her, Yunliu was in charge of paying.
After receiving the candied hawthorn, An Xue Tang couldn’t wait to take a bite.
It’s really sour, she didn’t used to like this kind of sourness before, but today this sweet and sour candied hawthorn is really delicious.
She took a bite and then held up her hand, “Ajing, you try some too.”
Mò Yún jǐng’s deep eyes swept across the object in her hand. He knew very well that he definitely wouldn’t be able to stomach something like this, but seeing An Xuě Táng’s expectant eyes, he finally lowered his head and took a bite.
Sour, sweet.
It’s not something he likes.
How does it taste?
“It’s fine.”
Hearing this answer, An Xue Tang stifled a laugh. This guy clearly resisted the candied hawthorns.
She ate the remaining hawthorn he had bitten into, then held out her hand and passed it to him. “Since you’re still fine, why not have another bite.”
Mo Yunjing really didn’t hesitate, seeing her offer it to him, he leaned down and wanted to take a bite.
An Xuetang raised an eyebrow slightly. She really didn’t want to make things difficult for him at this point, and had already taken back the candied hawthorn before he approached her.
Mo Yun’s gaze lifted, and his deep, dark eyes seemed to pierce through her.
An Xue Tang said helplessly, “You clearly don’t like to eat it, why make things difficult for yourself? It wouldn’t be so hard to refuse me.”
Mo Yunjing’s lips curled up slightly. He didn’t answer, just held her hand and continued walking forward. After ten steps or so, An Xuetang heard his reply, “I dislike many things, but I like everything you like.”
…
An Xuetang stopped in her tracks, “Oh…” She was unexpectedly teased by him again!
At this time, Ning’er, who was walking behind the two of them, was also embarrassed by Yunliu’s behavior.
When Yunliu paid for the candied fruit, he bought a whole string. Ninger thought he was afraid that the princess wouldn’t have enough if she ate only one string, so he took an entire string.
But who knew that this whole string was bought for himself, now he acts like a piece of adhesive bandage, constantly handing it to her.
Ning’er didn’t want to pay attention to him, but the more indifferent she was, the more he acted. At this point, he had already started grabbing her arm.
Yunliu, with a shameless face, said, “Just eat it, or I’ll keep holding you like this.”
