Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In Jinhan Palace.

Xiaojie was pacing around the magnificent hall.

On his fair and delicate face was an anxious and serious look never seen before.

Shangguan Wan returned to the palace and when she saw that Xiaojie was frowning and worried, she went up to him and asked, “Xiaojie Baby, you’re back? Why are you upset?”

When Xiaojie saw Shangguan Wan, he greeted her politely.

At first, when he went back with Daddy to Jinhan Palace and knew that he was going to marry Auntie Shangguan Wan, Xiaojie was was very disgusted.

There are no children who did not want their Daddy and Mommy together.

He had heard the story of Snow White and thought that all stepmoms were bad.

Later, when Auntie Shangguan Wan came to live at the palace, she was much nicer than he had imagined.

Not only did he hate her at first, he also did not understand Daddy and he would hide in his room alone.

Auntie Shangguan Wan talked to him secretly. She said that she would not steal Daddy from his Mommy and when the time comes, she would return Daddy to him and Mommy. She even said that the little brother in her stomach would not compete with him at being doted on.

Since they started to get along, he found that Auntie Shangguan Wan did not secretly give him poisonous apples to eat and in turn, taught him a lot of things.

“What happened?” Shangguan Wan squatted in front of Xiaojie and asked with concern.

Xiaojie’s eyes were red and pouted his pink lips. “It’s Pretty Zhizhi, she was taken away by the Royal Guards.”

Shangguan Wan was shocked.

The Royal Guards were an army hired by the Queen. Normally, they would be sent out only when people had broken the law seriously. What happened with Nan Zhi?

Was she and Sihan found out?

The Queen attended to hundreds of important matters every day and if she found out, she should leave it to Uncle Ye to settle and not directly give the order!

Just when Shangguan Wan was pondering the situation, Mu Sihan strode in with big steps.

Seeing Mu Sihan, Xiaojie flew over. “Daddy, did you get Pretty Zhizhi out?”

Mu Sihan touched Xiaojie’s head and there was an unreadable look in his eyes. All he said was, “Give Daddy some time.”

Xiaojie was not an ignorant and unreasonable child. He attended school at the Royal Academy so he knew the rules in the palace.

Grandmother Queen was the biggest and highest up in the royal family. Even Daddy had to listen to her.

But Xiaojie believed that Daddy would save Pretty Zhizhi.

He had to.

“Brat, go back to your room first. I have something to say to your Auntie Wan’er.”

Xiaojie nodded obediently.

After Xiaojie went upstairs, Mu Sihan dismissed all the servants.

Looking at Mu Sihan’s carved-like and handsome face, Shangguan Wan said after pondering for a moment, “What’s happening?”

Mu Sihan explained briefly why Nan Zhi had been arrested. Shangguan Wan was clever and quickly responded, “The Queen had said long before that whoever could catch the high officials of SSS group, he would make a great contribution to the country. If Miss Nan, really had an intimate relationship with Gu Sheng, it might be very difficult for her to escape this disaster!”

Mu Sihan narrowed his dark eyes. “Wan’er, you have acquaintances in the dungeon, right? Arrange for me to go see Nan Zhi, I have something to ask her.”

Shangguan Wan nodded. “I’ll try to contact him.”

The sky darkened gradually.

Mu Sihan changed into the clothes of the keeper guarding the dungeon and following the lead of the keeper, walked to one of iron cells.

“Your Highness, you have a maximum of ten minutes. The Queen ordered that no one is to probe the criminal. If I am found out, I might lose my life.”

Mu Sihan nodded. “You’re dismissed.”

The keeper opened the iron door.

Nan Zhi was curled up in the corner since she was captured and brought here from the airport by the guards.

On the way over, she heard the captain of the guards mention that it was a direct order from the Queen, saying that she was related to the SSS group.

Speaking of SSS group, she was also a victim herself, but she thought of Brother Gu Sheng...

Someone must have found out about her relationship with Gu Sheng.

Nan Zhi leaned against the wall and tried to keep calm.

From what she knew about Mu Sihan, he would definitely investigate the matter after knowing that she was arrested.

There was a clang and the iron door was opened.

Nan Zhi looked up and saw a tall figure coming in. She thought it was a guard but when she looked again, she froze.

Mu Sihan took off the hat, revealing a handsome and well-defined face.

He hurried forward to the woman huddling by the corner. Stretching out his long arm, he pulled her into his arms.

Nan Zhi’s chin rested on his broad shoulders and she felt choked up when she smelled the special fresh scent on him.

She closed her eyes and her face moved towards his neck, feeling the heat of his body.

After a moment of silence, Mu Sihan released Nan Zhi, his hands holding her beautiful face, his fingers rubbing on her fair and tender skin. “Did they do anything to you?”

Nan Zhi shook her head. “No.”

He pulled her into his arms again, letting his chin rest on the top of her head. “It happened so suddenly but you have to believe me, I won’t let anything happen to you.”

Nan Zhi had no one to depend on here and it was the Queen who gave the order to arrest her. She could only depend on and trust him.

She leaned against his shoulder, looking at his well-defined handsome face and nodded.

Mu Sihan’s large palm caressed her slender back and his voice was deep and husky. “Gu Sheng is SSS group’s high ranking member. Someone reported to the Queen about you having an intimate relationship with him.”

Nan Zhi’s breath tightened slightly.

It seemed like she had guessed right. Her being caught was related to Brother Gu Sheng.

However...

“Mu Sihan, do you believe me?”

Mu Sihan’s dark eyes looked at her. “If I didn’t, would I still be here?”

Nan Zhi nodded and said calmly, “Brother Gu Sheng broke away from SSS group in order to save me. He had the devil poison in his body and he... he is no longer alive.”

Mu Sihan’s gaze was gathered on her and his thin lips were pursed, waiting for her to continue.

“Before he died, in order to not make me sad, he lay down on a bamboo raft and drifted along the river while I was asleep.” At the thought of Gu Sheng’s departure, Nan Zhi felt like crying. “He had the appearance of a seventy or eighty year old.”

Mu Sihan was shocked. He did not expect Gu Sheng would have done something like that for Nan Zhi. Although it was true that he had done her wrong first, since he kidnapped Nan Zhi and caused her to be poisoned in the first place.

But he was able to correct his own mistake and use his life to save Nan Zhi’s, this love was worthy of admiration.

“Do you have a photo of Gu Sheng looking old?”

Nan Zhi lowered her thick and long eyelashes and bit her lip. “Brother Gu Sheng had already become like that, how could I take a photo with him?”

“Did anyone else see him when he left?” Mu Sihan saw the tears in her eyes and he frowned. “Think carefully.”

Nan Zhi held her head in both hands and thought carefully, her fan-like eyelashes fluttering . Suddenly, she looked up and her eyes lit up. “I remember...”
