Chapter 528: How Couples Should Communicate (3) (1/2)

“Lian’er, can you avoid meeting Xiao Bojian in the future?”

Chu Lian blinked in astonishment before shaking her head inwardly. He Changdi was really tsundere!

However, she suddenly felt that there was something strange about his question. Was there something up with He Changdi? Ever since she had gone to the north, she could sense that He Changdi seemed to be secretly guarding against Xiao Bojian.

As if they had been born to be enemies.

She had read the original novel, so she knew about the enmity between the two. However, the current He Changdi was just too different from his novel counterpart. It could be said that he and the gentle, straightforward He Sanlang from the book were two completely different people aside from sharing the same face.

She had already struck out the possibility that he might be the same as her early on. However, from the way he treated his family, he didn’t seem like a ‘fake’ He Changdi at all.

Then what on earth had caused his personality to change so much?

Although Chu Lian really wanted to know the truth, it clearly wasn’t the right time to ask now.

She let out a helpless sigh, “He Changdi, answer me this. When have I ever actively gone to meet Xiao Bojian? Wenqing and Wenlan are your servants. I’m sure that you know about everything I’ve done before I went to the north. Don’t tell me that I have to list them all out for you again?”

His jealousy was completely unfounded. There was no reason for him to have thrown his little fit of temper.

A glint flashed through He Changdi’s eyes. Chu Lian was right. He knew every single one of her movements while she had been in the capital.

He had indeed assigned Senior Servant Zhong and the Wen sisters to her side to keep an eye on her. Chu Lian had never tried to meet Xiao Bojian. When he had become the top scholar of the year, she had even politely rejected his invite to a celebration.

Even so, there was a single scene in his memory remained like a thorn in his heart.

He Sanlang reached out and stroked Chu Lian’s soft cheek. His voice came out in a low rumble, “Then what about that lucky jade amulet? Why is it in Xiao Bojian’s hands?”
