C10 (2/2)

”This King will tell you on the way.” Just like this, Nangong Lin brought Yan Xiaoxi and they left the mountain through another exit.

The first thing that Yan Xiaoxi did when she returned to the manor was to catch the medicine. No matter how many roasted chickens there were, they wouldn't be able to eat it.

She personally went to the kitchen to fry the medicine. After ingesting it, she poured the rest into a bowl and prepared to give it to Nangong Lin.

”His Royal Highness ordered that no one was to enter.” When they arrived at the study, Yan Xiaoxi was stopped by a guard at the door.

”Get out of the way, I'm going to deliver medicine for Little Linlin.” Yan Xiaoxi ignored the objections of the guards and barged in.

”I beg of you to cooperate with me, wangfei, and don't make things difficult for this servant.” The guards were also doing their duty, and they didn't intentionally prevent Yan Xiaoxi from entering.

Thinking about it, there was a time when the prince was in the study, ordering no one to enter, but the guard on duty saw that it was Miss Liu Zhixue. He let her enter, but was then dealt with by the prince through family rules.

After this incident, everyone knew that in front of the prince, there were no exceptions. As long as he gave an order, no one would be able to escape.

”You should cooperate with me. Whether or not you take the medicine, the poison in little Linlin's body will erupt.” Yan Xiaoxi calculated the time, and the medicinal properties of the pill would be over very soon. Nangong Lin still had some poison in his body, once it entered his internal organs along with his blood, he would be done for.

When the guard saw that Yan Xiaoxi was nervous, he felt troubled as well.

”But wangfei, I dare not disobey the prince's orders.” In the end, the guards still chose to obey Nangong Lin's orders.

”This is a child that cannot be taught.” Yan Xiaoxi was about to go crazy from anger. She held the bowl in one hand and reached for the bag at her waist with the other. She quickly stuffed a pill into the guard's mouth.

Immediately, the guard stood still like a statue at the door.

”Princess, you can't go in there.” Although his body could not move, the guard still tried to persuade him otherwise.

However, by the time he finished speaking, Yan Xiaoxi's delicate figure was no longer in sight.

Nangong Lin was sitting before a table in his study. He looked majestic and meticulous as he read the incoming letters from the army. These past few days, he had not been in his residence and had many things he had not dealt with in time.

Suddenly, he stopped waving the brush and looked towards the door.

His ears twitched, and in a moment he heard light footsteps.

”Didn't This King say that no one is allowed to enter?” Nangong Lin did not even raise his head as he angrily rebuked.

Yan Xiaoxi was stunned as she picked up the antidote.

”Little Linlin.” Yan Xiaoxi placed the bowl in her hand on the table and sat down on a stool in the middle of the table.

”Woman, you are really bold to ignore This King's orders.” Nangong Lin raised his head and looked at Yan Xiaoxi, who was currently eating her pastries.

When Yan Xiaoxi heard Nangong Lin's ice-cold tone, she immediately felt wronged. She had hurriedly fried the medicine for him, but he had actually scolded her for no reason at all. This was too despicable.

She angrily glared at Nangong Lin as she put down the pastries and left.

At this moment, Yan Xiaoxi was extremely depressed. Even when she was eating delicious pastries, she found it hard to swallow.

”Hmph, I won't bother with you anymore.” Yan Xiaoxi ran out in anger.

Nangong Lin was dumbstruck as he watched everything that was happening. Shouldn't he be the one to be angry? Why was the situation reversed?

He picked up the pen again and was about to reply, but he was no longer focused.

Suddenly, his line of sight stopped at the bowl of black medicine in front of the table, and he said with a flash of understanding, ”The antidote.”
