Chapter 210 - Tianjian, The Southern Kingdom (2/2)
Su Yan quickly recounted what had happened that day and said worriedly, ”I wonder who this eunuch belongs to. Will Nalan Cui be in danger with his presence?”
Gu Ruoyun replied calmly, ”Don't worry, he can handle it.”
Su Yan put down her worries and decided that Nalan Cui's personality would not be at a disadvantage.
The few of them had traveled for a few days before they were close to the border of the Southern Kingdom. The closer they got, the more nervous Jin Tong was.
Su Yan asked, ”What's wrong?”
Jin Tong smiled and replied, ”Nothing.”
Just as she finished speaking, she began to complain, ”It's all because of my brother. We went out together, but neither of us returned to the country. It's all because he implicated me. When we enter the Southern Kingdom, you must not expose my identity.”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows and said, ”It seems that the matter of you running away from the marriage is more serious. No matter how I look at it, you're the one who implicated Prince Yueling.”
Jin Tong's expression stiffened and she stubbornly replied, ”How is that possible? It is clear that it is more serious for the prince of a country to flee the country.”
Gu Ruoyun replied, ”The two of you are the same.”

An Yi inadvertently glanced at her and took out a hat that had the characteristics of the Southern Kingdom and threw it at her head. The long brim of the hat immediately covered half of her face. Coupled with the change in the color of her hair, it was really hard to tell who she was.
Jin Tong touched the hat and said excitedly, ”An Yi, when did you buy this? Did you buy it specifically for me?”
An Yi replied coldly, ”It's to prevent you from implicating us.”
These words made Jin Tong pursed her lips speechlessly.
Su Yan looked at the interaction between them and was a little surprised. The worry in An Yi's eyes just now was not as heartless as he had said.
Gu Ruoyun was not interested in their matters and focused on Su Yan.
At night, they finally entered the Southern Kingdom.
The few of them got out of the carriage and found an inn to stay. After a few days of traveling, they were exhausted and went to rest without saying anything.
After Su Yan had washed up, she looked at Gu Ruoyun who was looking out the window and asked, ”What's wrong?”
