Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Previously, Xiao Juan had heard that Niaoniao had gone out with Princess Ni Yang. After returning, Niaoniao had become very strange.

Initially, he thought that Princess Ni Yang had bullied Niaoniao. Now, he knew that it was because Niaoniao had been brought to the Bestial Battle Arena.

Xiao Juan knew very well what kind of place the Bestial Battle Arena was. Niaoniao must have been frightened to become like this.

Xiao Juan hated Princess Ni Yang.

It was fine if she abused him, but she didn’t even let Niaoniao off.

This was something Xiao Juan could not tolerate.

He tried to slow his voice and coaxed gently, “It’s okay. With me here, that tiger can’t hurt you.”

Yu Niaoniao cried. “I’m not afraid of that tiger. My heart aches for you.”

Xiao Juan’s heart softened.

He couldn’t help but reach out to wipe her tears.

His fingers stopped just before they touched her cheek.

Xiao Juan silently told himself that he could not be tempted again. He could not be fooled again.

He was about to retract his hand when Yu Niaoniao took it first.

She took the initiative to lean her cheek against his palm and nuzzle it gently.

Hot, wet tears wet his palms.

He pursed his thin lips involuntarily and wanted to retreat, but his body seemed to have lost control and refused to move.

Yu Niaoniao choked and said, “What if I’m also locked in a large iron cage one day and Princess Ni Yang forces me to fight a ferocious beast? What should I

Xiao Juan said in a low voice, “No, I won’t let that happen.”

The pain he had experienced would never be experienced again.

He would definitely protect her firmly behind him and not let her be hurt at all.

However, Yu Niaoniao insisted on arguing with him, “I’m talking about what if. What if that day comes? If I’m really unlucky and an accident happens, will you feel sad for me? Will you cry for me?”

Xiao Juan’s expression was extremely ugly.

He did not dare to think about how he would survive alone if Niaoniao was gone one day.

Xiao Juan forcefully changed the topic.

“If Princess Ni Yang wants to harm you, you just have to remember one thing.”

Yu Niaoniao looked at him with her red eyes. “What?”

“No matter what she does to you, you can’t give in.”

Seeing the confusion on Niaoniao’s face, Xiao Juan explained patiently, “Eldest Princess Ni Yang has a strong desire to control. In her eyes, human lives are as worthless as grass.”

“So don’t expect any sympathy from her.”

“Showing weakness and asking for help are tactics that do not work on her. She might even think that you are too boring and end your life early.” “The more she wants to suppress you, the more you have to resist.”

“As long as you didn’t compromise and give in, she would feel that you are an unfinished work that needs to be continued. You can take this opportunity to stall for time and fight for a chance to escape.”

As he spoke, he looked dazed, as if he had recalled some bad memories. His brows slowly furrowed.

Yu Niaoniao asked carefully, “Is this how you endured as a child?”

Xiao Juan replied softly, “Yes.”

When he was thrown into the iron cage, he had asked Princess Ni Yang for help, but she was indifferent.

After knowing that asking for help was useless, he could only risk his life to fight the ferocious beasts.

It was also at that time that Princess Ni Yang finally looked him in the eye. After the duel ended, she even asked the doctor to bandage his wound for the first time.

Because of this, Xiao Juan could barely survive and live for a few more days.

Otherwise, by the time the palace sent someone to Liangzhou, he would have been seriously injured and cold.

Yu Niaoniao’s heart ached even more. “If there’s a next life, I must meet you sooner so that I can protect you from others.”

Xiao Juan looked down at her and could not suppress the increasingly strong emotions in his heart. His fingers gently brushed past the corners of her eyes and wiped away the hot tears.

He did not dare hope for another life.

He was satisfied as long as he could not be separated from Niaoniao in this life.

Yu Niaoniao leaned over. “Ah Juan.”

This was the first time Xiao Juan had heard her call him that. His heart could not help but tremble.

That soft voice with a little sob could kill him.

Involuntarily, he lowered his head and followed his heart. He wanted to get close to her, hug her, and kiss her.

Yu Niaoniao looked at him unblinkingly. There were still sparkling tears on her curly eyelashes. She looked wet and her face was a little pale. There were still wet tears on her face.

She grabbed Xiao Juan’s clothes bit by bit. She was extremely nervous, and her heart was pounding.

Knock knock knock!

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Xiao Juan suddenly came back to his senses and quickly sat up straight before retracting his hand.

The distance between them widened. Yu Niaoniao could not help but call out again.

“Ah Juan.”

Xiao Juan avoided her gaze and turned to look at the door. “Who is it?” The sound of Chun Feng came through the door.

“The Princess Consort didn’t eat much for lunch. I was worried that she would starve, so I specially prepared some food.”

Xiao Juan stood up and walked over to open the door. He took the food box from Chun Feng.

Chun Feng asked with concern.

“How’s the Princess Consort now? Is she better?”

Xiao Juan said calmly, “She’s just too frightened. She’s fine. Go make a pot of calming tea. ”

“Aye.”

Chun Feng accepted the order and left.

Xiao Juan closed the door with one hand.

He placed the food box on the table and said to Yu Niaoniao.

“Come and eat something.”

Yu Niaoniao shouted in her heart. She was so close! If Chun Feng had come a little later, the two of them would have kissed! She refused to give up and stammered.

“I’m weak. Can you carry me over?”

Xian Tuan aglced her to wait

Then, he took out a low table and placed it on the bed. Then, he took out the food from the food box and placed it neatly on the low table.

“Since you’re weak, sit on the bed and eat. ”

Yu Niaoniao was speechless.

This man must have done it on purpose. He must have done it on purpose, right?

She took a deep breath and continued to wheedle. “My right hand is injured and

I can’t use any strength. I can’t hold my chopsticks. Feed me.” Xiao Juan scooped a bowl of soup and placed it in front of her.

“Then have some soup first.”

Yu Niaoniao held her right wrist, which was wrapped in gauze, and said pitifully, “I can’t carry the bowl. I can’t carry the spoon.”

Xiao Juan looked at her steadily.

Yu Niaoniao looked back at him without guilt.

She was indeed injured. She wasn’t lying!

The two of them looked at each other for a long time. In the end, Xiao Juan was defeated.

He held a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other and began to feed her soup.

Yu Niaoniao opened her mouth and drank a mouthful of soup. In the end, she even smacked her lips.

“Aiyaya, why does this soup taste so sweet today?”

Xiao Juan still did not say anything, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

After finishing the bowl of soup, Yu Niaoniao pretended to comment.

“You’ve served me well, Little Juan. I’m very satisfied..”
