432 Lacking Someone to Protect Him
Actually, it was not too bad. She believed that a child from a large family like the Gong family would not be too bad. However, Yu Yan’er…
She had buried the darkness in her heart a little too deeply.
If An Jiuyue had not seen how Yu Yan’er had exposed herself when she first saw Qian Jiyun, she would not have realized the latter was clearly here for him.
At this moment, Yu Yan’er had hidden all her intentions again. She only had eyes for her cousin, Gong Cheng, again.
“Young Master Gong, right? Since you’re here, sit down. Jiyun is really lacking someone to protect him.”
“Uh!” Gong Cheng was stunned by An Jiuyue’s words.
Qian Jiyun had been at the southern border for many years. He had seen everything. Did he still need a dabbler like him to protect him?
It seemed like what he had said was wrong. He glanced at Yu Yan’er next to him. She twisted the handkerchief in her hands and glanced at Qian Jiyun occasionally.
He then looked at An Jiuyue, sitting across from Qian Jiyun with a child in her arms, not sparing a glance at Yu Yan’er.
Suddenly, he understood why his second brother did not welcome him.
Second Brother has just returned with a lady. I shouldn’t have brought my cousin to look for him, right?
But An Jiuyue already has two children. Second Brother is outstanding and is the noble Prince Zhan Yun. How can he crumble at the hands of a woman like her?
Even my cousin is much better than An Jiuyue.
At this thought, he felt that he had not done anything wrong. It was common for men to have multiple wives and concubines. His second brother was well known. What was the harm in having a few more women around him?
If An Jiuyue was jealous over such a trivial matter, a woman like her was not worthy of being with his brother.
“Hmph!” He snorted coldly at An Jiuyue and looked at his cousin gently.
He pointed at the spot beside Qian Jiyun and said to Yu Yan’er, “Yan’er, sit here.”
“Thank you, Cousin. I… should sit here instead.”
Yu Yan’er wanted to sit next to Qian Jiyun but sensed Qian Jiyun’s icy aura before she could say anything. With a pale face, she had no choice but to choose the seat farthest from him.
Looking at Yu Yan’er’s aggrieved expression, Gong Cheng cursed her internally for being too disappointing.
However, there was nothing he could do about it, so he sat beside Qian Jiyun.
“Second Brother, how long will you be staying this time?” he asked Qian Jiyun.
“The Emperor will decide. I can’t give you an answer,” Qian Jiyun replied coldly.
Could he stay in the capital for as long as he wanted? It depended on the old Emperor!
However, the old Emperor wanted him to stay in the capital longer. He could stay in the capital for as long as he wished if nothing serious happened at the southern border.
“That’s true. It’s not up to you to decide.”
Gong Cheng raised his eyebrows in understanding. Some things could not be done as desired.
He glanced at An Jiuyue and then at the two children. The three of them could not stay in the Prince Zhanyun Residence without status. They had to be given one, right? He could not help but ask Qian Jiyun.
