Chapter 900 Reluctance to Say Goodbye and Gem Bracelets!

Shao Wanru felt that she wanted to hit on the handsome face of Prince Chen. How could he be so thick-skinned! It sounded like she couldn’t fall asleep without him.

In fact, it was really hard for Shao Wanru to fall asleep when lying with him because his body was very hot.

“You can take your time. I’m not in a hurry!” Shao Wanru gritted her teeth.

“I’m in a hurry. Alas, I can’t wait!” Chu Liuchen looked at her and said. There was another meaning in his words. Shao Wanru didn’t understand at first, but when she understood, she blushed again.

They were talking about something serious, but she didn’t know why he can always change the subject to something indecent. She couldn’t talk with this thick-skinned man.

She clenched Chu Liuchen’s hands to make him feel her anger.

“OK, all right, just use what you like and put others in your storehouse. These are just some good-looking, fun, and delicious things!” Chu Liuchen said casually. He picked up a piece of black brocade and looked at Shao Wanru, “Remember to make a set of clothes for me. I didn’t have a wife before, so I didn’t pay much attention to my dressing.”

Shao Wanru’s eyes fell on his exquisite brocade robe and her mouth twitched. She didn’t understand how he could say that he was just casually dressed.

If his clothes were worn casually, then other people’s clothes were nothing.

“Of course, I’ll make new clothes for you, Prince. I hope you won’t mind!” Shao Wanru glared at him and said crossly.

“Of course not. Others don’t have the clothes made by a beautiful wife, so I should show them off. From now on, my clothes will be in your charge, my Zhuozhuo!” Chu Liuchen said proudly.

Looking at him like this, Shao Wanru couldn’t help laughing.

“Come on, I want to show you something!” Chu Liuchen smiled and pulled Shao Wanru to a table by the window. He took out a box from his sleeve and put it on the table.

“What… what is this?” Shao Wanru asked in surprise.

This box looked like a jewelry box, but it was not exactly. She cannot imagine what was inside.

“Open it and have a look!” Chu Liuchen said with a smile.

Shao Wanru opened the box. Seeing a pair of bracelets in the box, she was stunned for a moment. The bracelets were really exquisite. They were made of gold thread and each of them was inlaid with five blue gems.

Such a blue and flawless gem was hard to find, not to mention there were ten.

“This… is not an ordinary bracelet, is it?” Shao Wanru picked one up and looked at it in surprise. Then her eyes fell on the box again. It was a little far-fetched to call it a jewelry box. It was unusual. Instead of being decorated with exquisite accessories, it was very simple and plain.

It was hard to imagine that there was such a delicate pair of bracelets inside.

Chu Liuchen was very satisfied with Shao Wanru’s keen mind. He picked up the other one and pressed one of the sapphires. Immediately, a few sharp needles shot heavily at the window.

“There is a sharp weapon inside!” Shao Wanru said in surprise. She loosened her grip, and the bracelet fell off. Chu Liuchen reached out to catch it and said, “Don’t worry. It takes great force to activate it, and only one gem can be pressed. You can wear it as a normal accessory. It won’t hurt you!”

As he said, he handed over the bracelet. Shao Wanru took it carefully. Under the guidance of Chu Liuchen, she could see the differences. Other sapphires were inlaid with rice-sized pearls, and the one that could be pressed was not.

“I’m leaving the capital city for the time being. Although you have Qing’er with you, I’m afraid that someone will plot against you since your identity is different now. Wearing this can help you protect yourself!” Chu Liuchen said softly. As he said that, he took another bracelet from his hand, put it on for Shao Wanru and then took off her old one.

Shao Wanru bit her lip. Seeing that Chu Liuchen carefully tied the bracelet for her, she smiled unconsciously.

After helping her wear the bracelet, he rolled down her sleeves to hide it inside. Everything was perfect.

“After I leave the capital, you must be careful,” Chu Liuchen told her again. In fact, he had said this several times, but he still did it again and again. Even he couldn’t help laughing at himself.

He had always been alone. He even put aside the word of caution given by Empress Dowager. But now he repeatedly cautioned another person!

“I will be careful, and so will you. Nanjiang has always been a strange place. If you act rashly, there will be trouble and even life-threatening danger. Although you won’t go to Nanjiang, you will arrive at the border area, so you must be careful!” Shao Wanru said worriedly.

She couldn’t remember what had happened in the last life clearly, so she couldn’t give Chu Liuchen any better hints. What she could do was to remind Chu Liuchen over and over again that Xu State was dangerous and that he shouldn’t take risks rashly.

Chu Liuchen’s eyes became more gentle. He reached out to hold Shao Wanru in his arms, touched her head gently, and comforted her softly, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine!”

His eyes became cold when Shao Wanru couldn’t see them. Even if there was something wrong, it was none of his business. He just wanted to see who was scheming this time.

“As for Marquis Xing’s Mansion, you can deal with it if you want. If you need help, I will always be there!”

Chu Liuchen said in a low voice, but it reached Shao Wanru’s heart. She inexplicably felt bitter. Marquis Xing’s Mansion was the source of her hatred in this life. Although Chu Liuchen did not say anything, he could understand her thoughts.

He didn’t do anything and let her do whatever she wanted, because he wanted her to be happy. How could she not understand?

“I will solve it. If it doesn’t work, I still have you!” Shao Wanru said with a slight blush. She said this with confidence, but when she thought about her words carefully, she couldn’t help blushing. She had never said so in the past.

“Yes, you still have me!” Chu Liuchen smiled and hold her slender waist tightly, letting her lean in his arms. His heart was overflowing with happiness.

Neither of them spoke, but they didn’t feel awkward or weird. Staying together already made them feel happy even if they said or did nothing.

“Master, Commandery Prince Qing is asking to see you!” Xiao Xuanzi summoned up his courage and said at the door.

“I don’t want to see him!” Chu Liuchen said impatiently.

“Yes, I’ll tell Commandery Prince Qing right away!” Xiao Xuanzi ran away quickly. Shao Wanru saw through the window that he was running as if someone was chasing him, so she couldn’t help laughing.

“Is Commandery Prince Qing engaged?”

“Who knows!” Chu Liuchen put her raising head back on his chest. “I don’t care. Anyway, he has the final say in the engagement, and nobody else has any say in it!”

Shao Wanru asked surprisingly, “Your Highness, do you mean that he has not been engaged yet?”

“Maybe! Anyway, that’s what he says. When something had gone wrong in the palace before, I heard that he was going to marry the daughter of a concubine from your mansion. He said he has been engaged back then, but this time, his scheme backfires on him!” Chu Liuchen said with a sneer.

Chu Qing thought that he had concealed his thoughts very well, but he did not expect that many people were focusing on him. The so-called engaged woman was just the niece of a small official. If Chu Qing was a man of his word, he would not have rushed to the front of the stage and done all these things on his own.

“Is the Yuhui Nunnery the base of Commandery Prince Qing?” Shao Wanru suddenly remembered what had happened in the Yuhui Nunnery and couldn’t help asking.

“No matter whose base it is, don’t go to the Yuhui Nunnery!” Chu Liuchen said.

“Why not? I need to visit Mingqiu Nun!” Shao Wanru moved her head and said deliberately.

“You can go visit her after I come back. If you really miss her, you can invite Mingqiu Nun here in the name of treating you!” Chu Liuchen said meaningfully.

Shao Wanru understood his overtones and raised the corner of her mouth. It was not that Chu Liuchen didn’t want her to go, but that he was afraid that she might get into trouble in the Yuhui Nunnery. This place was abnormal. After several accidents, the nunnery was now eerily calm. It was startling.

Chu Qing’s case could be serious or minor, but in the end, it had no conclusion.

The Yuhui Nunnery was still there, as if nothing had happened before!

“But Madam Jiang is still there!” Shao Wanru said. After saying that, she immediately blushed. Her voice and tone sounded more like a spoiled child!

Chu Liuchen glanced at her and said in a low voice, “There is no rush for her business. Put it aside now. After I come back, I’ll go with you!”

The two felt good, as if they should get along with each other like this, with the joy of tranquility.

Shao Wanru relaxed her body and let Chu Liuchen hold her tightly in his arms. She closed her eyes slowly. This was Chu Liuchen, not the person whom she could not rely on in her last life.

“You can take your time to handle your own business. If I mess up, I will come to you. But before that, Prince, you have to promise me not to intervene at will!” Shao Wanru said. She didn’t hesitate to say what was on her mind.

Although Chu Liuchen was favored by Empress Dowager and Emperor, he cannot live a quiet life because of his identity as a prince. Every move he made would be noticed by someone with ulterior motives, and people would inquire about other things related to him. Shao Wanru wished to deal with her own affairs on her own and didn’t want Chu Liuchen to be suspected.

Chu Liuchen was not surprised by Shao Wanru’s words. As early as the first time he met Shao Wanru, he knew that this girl was not as delicate as she looked on the surface. She had her own plan in secret and acted decisively, which shocked Chu Liuchen, but also made him filled with pity.

If she hadn’t been cornered by someone before, a girl wouldn’t have been so alert and good at planning.

“Okay, I’ll do as you say. But remember, you must ensure your safety. If you’re in danger, I’ll take action!” Chu Liuchen gently pushed Shao Wanru’s face away, his eyes brimming with coldness.

However, in Shao Wanru’s eyes, his reaction made her feel the sweetness of love. She nodded hard and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t let anyone hurt me!”

Thanks to her serious promise, the coldness on Chu Liuchen’s face faded away. He turned back into that genteel and beautiful man as usual. He pinched Shao Wanru’s nose softly and said with a smile, “Your life in Prince Chen’s Mansion won’t be hard. You can do whatever you want. Remember, you are Princess Chen!”

Shao Wanru smiled, held his hands, pulled down his fingers, and played with them. For a moment, the room became quiet again. Only the feeling of love between them was flowing. It was very peaceful and warm!

“Master, come and have a look. Commandery Prince Qing has fainted!” Xiao Xuanzi panted loudly to the main room as soon as he ran into the yard…
