I just want to live a good life

Chapter 258 Making up for it

It was just as the sky was getting light that Su Nuan closed her eyes. After a short nap, she was awakened by the tinkling sounds outside.

Su Nuan opened her eyes and saw that the people around her had left without her noticing, and she stretched.

With such a loud noise, she couldn't fall asleep.

He simply got up, washed up, and planned to go out to see how Chu Qi's longevity lock was going.

That was what she was going to give to the baby in Xia Qingyao's belly.

When Su Nuan came to the room, Chu Qi was staring at the longevity lock in his hand. Hearing the voice, he looked up at the door and was relieved when he saw it was Su Nuan.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Su Nuan saw resentment in Chu Qi’s eyes.

Is the pattern too difficult to make?

No, it's just a longevity lock. The only special thing about it is the pattern on the lock, which is a rabbit. This year is the Year of the Rabbit, and according to the date, the little one should be born before the end of the year, so Su Nuan drew a rabbit.

If Chu Qi can't even do the rabbit tricks correctly, then he is not worthy of the position of master chef that I have reserved for him.

Thinking of this, Su Nuan took a closer look and saw the longevity lock in Chu Qi's hand that was about to be completed. The workmanship was extremely delicate, but the rabbit pattern carved on it had some flaws. There was an extra scratch on one of the rabbit's eyelids, making it look like the rabbit had a double eyelid surgery.

If you don't look closely, this scratch is nothing, but Su Nuan is used to seeing exquisite jewelry and her eyes are very sharp.

The flaw was pointed out immediately.

Chu Qi's face turned red, and then his eyes also turned red.

Su Nuan was slightly startled. Is this man so fragile? He doesn't allow others to say that his craftsmanship is not good? Who is he showing his crying face to?

"you--"

"My dear, please take care of your man!"

Before Su Nuan finished her accusatory words, Chu Qi said this in a wronged tone. It was hard not to associate something with the tearful look on her face.

"What did he do to you?"

"He knocked me out and tied me up. My hands were numb from the night I was there. You see, the longevity lock that was almost finished was damaged because of the numbness in my hands."

"Why did he knock you out?"

"this......"

Su Nuan guessed that Mu Yunting probably tied him up because he thought he was noisy.

This is also her fault. She was so focused on testing Chu Qi's skills last night that she didn't take time into consideration.

But it was a bit too much for Mu Yunting to knock the person out directly.

"Okay, there is no rush to make this longevity lock. We can slowly make it after returning to the imperial city. We will set off tomorrow, so you can go and say goodbye to your relatives and friends today."

"I won't live in your house when I go back to the Imperial City with you. Find me a quiet place outside the city. I don't like being disturbed while I'm working."

"Okay, it's up to you."

After comforting Chu Qi, Su Nuan prepared to say goodbye to Liao Xinyi.

She asked Falcon to prepare the carriage, but was told that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had ordered that she was not allowed to go out.

What kind of play is this?

Su Nuan was depressed. She had originally wanted to go to the prison to meet Yu Zhiqiu. This Miss Yu's crime did not deserve the death penalty, and she had also accepted her heirloom. It would be a bit unreasonable to send her to the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

And there is Mei Runian, that unlucky guy was dragged into this just because he liked a girl. It was really unfair.

What Su Nuan cared about most was Mu Yunting's attitude. Why was he suddenly so cruel to the two of them? Did Lord Yu and Lord Mei do something behind his back that made him unhappy?

Su Nuan spent this day in confusion and anxiety.

Before leaving Xiaomian County, Mu Yunting had a lot of things to deal with and prepare, especially Yu Moling and Mei Changli. In order to prevent them from going to the villa to disturb someone, he made the two of them run around in circles.

Mu Yunting was so busy that he didn't return to the villa until nightfall.

Chu Qi was arranged to stay in the room farthest from the main courtyard. As soon as it got dark, he stopped the work in his hands and lay on the table to enjoy the "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix".

In order to make up for Chu Qi's broken heart, Su Nuan agreed to let him take the golden tree back to the room to admire it. Anyway, she had already asked Falcon to greet the secret guards, so she was not afraid that Chu Qi would run away with her treasure.

On the last night in Xiaomian County, even though Su Nuan had a lot of questions in her mind, she still fell asleep soundly in Mu Yunting's arms.

The next day, Su Nuan was awakened by waves of fragrance.

It was a rare occasion that she woke up in the morning and found Mu Yunting still there. Su Nuan got up quietly, tucked the quilt in for the man and got out of bed.

The fragrance outside became stronger and stronger. After a simple wash, Su Nuan sat in a wheelchair and pushed the door open.

Sitting in a wheelchair is too inconvenient, so she plans to leave Xiaomian County and make herself "better".

The door of the next room was open, and maids were coming in and out carrying food boxes.

The aroma comes from those food boxes.

Seeing Su Nuan coming out, a little maid came forward to help her push the wheelchair.

"My Lady, breakfast is ready. Would you like to eat now?"

Su Nuan wanted to say yes, but she thought of Mu Yunting being there today and wanted to wait for him to eat together, so she replied, "I'll wait for His Highness."

When Mu Yunting walked out of the room, he heard Su Nuan's words and felt warm in his heart.

He walked over, sent the maid away, and pushed Su Nuan to the side room.

The fresh scent of grass and trees penetrated the aroma of rice and reached Su Nuan's nose. She turned around and looked at Mu Yunting.

"It's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"I want to have dinner with you."

The two came to the side room, and Su Nuan was frightened by the food in front of her.

The table was full of various kinds, and each one looked delicious.

This reminded her of the feast that the former princess had prepared for her when she left the Prince's Mansion.

"Why is there so much? The two of us can't finish it."

Su Nuan said this but she was already beaming with joy in her heart.

Mu Yunting smiled and said, "Try each one. If you think it tastes good, tell me and I'll ask someone to bring the cook along."

"No need!"

Although it feels good to be pampered, Su Nuan is not the kind of person who is pretentious. Traveling is already a hard thing, and it would be awkward to bring a cook with her.

Mu Yunting didn't say anything, but just picked up a steamed bun and put it into Su Nuan's bowl.

"Your Highness, can you please stop by Renxin Clinic when you leave the city? I want to say goodbye to Divine Doctor Liao."

"No need, I have asked someone to invite her, she will come to the other courtyard to see you later."

"this......"

Su Nuan looked at Mu Yunting suspiciously. There was something wrong with this man since yesterday. He was too nice to her.

Did he do something wrong and is trying to make up for it?

Is he planning to marry Yu Zhiqiu?

Su Nuan's heart trembled, and the meal suddenly became tasteless.

Even the roasted golden and fragrant chicken legs could not arouse her interest.

Seeing her like this, Mu Yunting felt both happy and distressed.

After a hasty meal, Mu Yunting ordered his men to prepare to set off.

There were several quilts in the carriage, which were softer than beds when sitting on them.

After Su Nuan was carried up, she kept asking whether Liao Xinyi had arrived.

When she asked Falcon for the eighth time, she finally saw a light green figure floating over, followed by Angelica carrying a large bag.

Arriving in front of the carriage, Liao Xinyi bowed to Mu Yunting and then jumped onto the carriage nimbly.

Su Nuan wanted to say something to her, but just as she opened her mouth, she was stopped by Liao Xinyi. Then she pulled her wrist with a serious face and began to feel her pulse.
