His cold attitude towards her had unconsciously eased up.

Liu Ruoqing's mood was a little low. After returning to the Duke Palaces, she directly entered the East Garden s. Seeing her low mood, Yan Yuan was a little worried, but after hesitating for a while, he still did not follow.

That woman was in a good mood, what did it have to do with him?

Yan Yuan scoffed coldly in his heart, feeling that the worry in his heart just now was somewhat laughable.

East Garden ?

"Princess, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with it? "

Xiao Yue saw that Liu Ruoqing was lying on the bed without making a sound, and revealed a worried look.

"It's nothing. I'm just not in a good mood."

She shook her head and lay on the bed without saying anything.

She had been an orphan since she was young. Although her master treated her as if she was her own child and taught her all the skills to survive in this world, which girl didn't want her to have a complete family, or be like other girls, with parents that doted on her?

Looking at the Yun Jiaorong who was left alone and helpless, Liu Ruoqing couldn't help but share the same feelings.

However, she still felt that she was luckier than Yun Jiaorong. At least, when her parents were gone, she still wasn't conscious, so she naturally couldn't feel the sorrow of separation.

But for Yun Jiaorong, this matter was too huge of a blow to her. In one night, in the entire Taifu Residence, there was no one she could rely on.

When it came to using Evening meal s, Liu Ruoqing did not exit the East Garden, but when Yan Yuan went to the side hall, he thought he would see Liu Ruoqing, but other than the servants, he did not see Liu Ruoqing at the table.

Yan Yuan frowned slightly, his gaze subconsciously looking in the direction of the East Garden, but he did not see Liu Ruoqing come out either.

He walked to the dining table and sat down. He picked up the rice and took a bite. For some reason, he did not know what he was eating.

Putting down his chopsticks, he turned to the butler beside him and said: "Go and call Liu Tianxin out for dinner."

The butler was startled, then looked at Yan Yuan with surprise. "Since when did Your Highness start to care about my wife?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Even though he was very suspicious, the butler did not dare to ask and only nodded before turning to leave.

Not long after, the butler came back alone, but he did not see Liu Ruoqing behind him.

"Where is she?"

Seeing that the butler was troubled, Yan Yuan's face darkened.

"My prince, my princess consort said that she is in a bad mood and has lost her appetite."

"Not in a good mood? What's wrong with her? "

Yan Yuan's tone wasn't very good, but he didn't notice that he was actually angry at her for not coming out to eat.

The butler looked at his angry appearance and was surprised. Why was the prince so weird?

Yan Yuan sat alone at the table with a sullen face as he ate. After taking two bites, he put it down.

Standing up and leaving the side hall, his back faintly emitted a fiery light.

"What happened to the prince?"

The butler stared at Yan Yuan's back and muttered to himself.

Inside the East Garden, Liu Ruoqing was still lying on his bed feeling depressed, and couldn't relax no matter how hard he tried.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she only lazily came over from under the bed, "Xiao Yue, you should go rest, don't serve me anymore."

The footsteps at the door paused, then stepped into the room.

Seeing that the sound of his footsteps was not right, Liu Ruoqing raised his head from his arms. Seeing that Yan Yuan was still the same as usual, with a paralyzed face, he entered the room.

"It's you."

Liu Ruoqing realized that even when she was in a bad mood, her fighting strength would immediately skyrocket. Even if she saw Yan Yuan as her arch-rival, she would no longer have any interest in fighting him.

"I'll return the bed to you."

She went around Yan Yuan and prepared to lay on the ground. However, at this moment, her arm was grabbed by Yan Yuan, "What's wrong?"

He opened his mouth to ask her, but his expression was a little awkward, and his subconscious softening tone allowed Liu Ruoqing to hear the awkwardness within his words.

She looked at Yan Yuan in shock, who would have thought that this paralyzed face would know how to be concerned about others?

"Nothing, I just feel that the Miss Yun is rather pitiful."

She took her hands away from Yan Yuan's hands and laid down on the bed with her eyes closed.

She couldn't tell him that she felt the same way, thinking about her parents that she hadn't even met.

Yan Yuan had never thought that Liu Ruoqing's dejected mood was because of this. Although he did not understand this woman too well, he still felt that she was not a person whose pity overflowed into others, nor was she someone who was depressed to the point of not being able to eat at all.

Yan Yuan looked at Liu Ruoqing's somewhat downcast mood. Although she felt that this wasn't her style, she still couldn't help but ask: "Are you pitying Yun Jiaorong?"

Because of his question, Liu Ruoqing raised his head from sitting on the bunk and watched the mockery in the depths of his eyes.

"Hey, what's with that look?"

Liu Ruoqing frowned in dissatisfaction, looking at the curve of Yan Yuan's lips.

Yan Yuan did not mind as he pursed his lips and sat on the floor beside her.

"This King only feels that this doesn't seem like you."

Her beautiful eyes slightly moved, and her gaze that looked at Liu Ruoqing seemed to have gained a sense of scrutiny.

Perhaps it was due to the fact that he was guilty, but after hearing Yan Yuan's words, his heart felt even more guilty.

His gaze moved from Yan Yuan's face without batting an eyelid, and his eyes flickered a little, "Tsk, This Princess has always had a merciful heart, will I let you see that?"

Yan Yuan's face revealed a disapproving smile, which was so strange that Liu Ruoqing was unable to understand it.

Seemingly worried that Yan Yuan would see through her weakness, she didn't want to say anything more to Yan Yuan. She stretched out her leg and kicked his thigh, saying unrestrainedly: "Go away, go away, don't disturb my sleep."

As he said that, he laid down on the bed, pulled up the blanket and prepared to cover it, but at this moment, the blanket was pulled over by Yan Yuan.

"Stupid Yan Yuan, what are you doing now?"

She opened her eyes and looked at Yan Yuan's calm expression angrily as she shouted.

Yan Yuan cast a glance at her, pointed to the direction of the big bed, and said: "Go sleep on the bed."

Liu Ruoqing was stunned, he looked at Yan Yuan's serious face in astonishment, almost suspecting that he had heard wrongly. After a while, he retracted his gaze and joked: "Oh, your highness, Tian Xin is really nice today, to actually give up his bed to me."

Yan Yuan's lips moved disapprovingly, and in his eyes, there was an additional charm that made Liu Ruoqing momentarily on guard. He looked at her and shook his index finger, "I didn't say I should give you the bed, but, I did say that I wanted to ?"

He purposely stopped for a moment, looked at Liu Ruoqing who was obviously nervous but pretended to be calm, deepened the smile in his eyes, and slowly walked closer to her. The warm atmosphere gave off an ambiguous feeling, causing Liu Ruoqing to subconsciously clench his fist.
