A Prince's Endless Indulgence-Chapter 1020 - 54: Who Exactly Is It (3rd Update)

Chapter 1020: Chapter 54: Who Exactly Is It (3rd Update)
Chunqiu couldn’t respond immediately.
But she truly didn’t dare let Nalan Jinlian stay alone with His Highness of Tianchu Country.
It was her hesitation that allowed Nalan Jinlian to realize that she and her mistress were both very cautious and concerned about the man in front of them.
And they guessed each other’s identities.
The one in white brocade was Crown Prince Zhou Yunshen, and the man in black before them was His Highness of Tianchu Country.
Thinking of this, Nalan Jinlian saw some maids approaching from not far away, who had clearly also noticed her. They quickly came forward to greet, "Your humble servants greet His Highness and Sixth Miss!"
Chu Yu nodded slightly.
Had already lost his voice.
Nalan Jinlian spoke softly, "Go prepare tea and invite the Mansion Physician over, His Highness is feeling unwell!"
"Yes!"
Two of the maids left separately, while two remained on the side.
Only then did Nalan Jinlian raise her eyes to look at Chu Yu.
He was very handsome.
This kind of handsomeness was different from the Crown Prince’s gentle elegance, with a square chin and a full forehead, a very stern man, and most surprising to Nalan Jinlian, he had gray hair at his temples.
This...
At such a young age, why had his hair turned white?
What was he troubled about?
Chu Yu smiled at Nalan Jinlian. Nalan Jinlian only felt a bloom in her heart, with an intuition that she knew him.
Their interaction should be like this, yet not exactly like this.
"I find Your Highness somewhat familiar!" Nalan Jinlian said, and then her eyes widened.
What was wrong with her?
Chu Yu laughed out loud, unable to hide his joy, "Hmm, I find Sixth Miss very familiar as well!"
Nalan Jinlian lowered her head with a smile.
Chunqiu, on the other hand, was sweating anxiously all over.
It’s over...
Indeed, it’s over.
Despite all their calculations, they never thought they would meet like this, and that Nalan Jinlian would be the one to speak first.
Leaving her unable to say anything, or not allowed to.
The atmosphere was silent and odd, and Chunqiu carefully glanced at Nalan Jinlian. Seeing her expression as normal, with no shyness or secret joy, yet His Highness was smiling so brightly it shocked her.
Chunqiu looked toward the garden, only to see Crown Prince Zhou Yunshen standing not far away, looking solemnly at the pavilion before turning and leaving.
Chunqiu then looked at His Highness Chu Yu, who gave her a half-smile glance, just as the maid brought up the tea.
Nalan Jinlian smiled lightly, "Your Highness, please!"
"Sixth Miss, please!"
Nalan Jinlian nodded, taking small sips from the teacup.
They shouldn’t have known each other, yet felt inexplicably familiar.
Now in the Marquis Residence, apart from Mrs. Xu, she trusted no one, yet Mrs. Xu had no manpower, so despite having many doubts, she didn’t know who to ask.
Just like today, those people dared to harm those by the Princess’s side, aside from the Crown Prince, no one else would dare.
But what did Zhou Yunshen want to do?
Who did he want to threaten using her?
Just then, the Mansion Physician came along with a man in black, whom Nalan Jinlian guessed was a retainer of His Highness Chu Yu.
And when that man saw her, he was delighted but quickly hid it, constantly winking at His Highness Chu Yu, his joyous expression genuine.
Nalan Jinlian suddenly understood.
These two also knew her.
But they were people of Tianchu Country, how could they know her?
Who was she?
Why did she come to this Fuwei Marquis Residence? What did these people intend to do?
Nalan Jinlian tried to think, suddenly feeling a splitting headache, struggling to stand up, her body softened and fell to the side.
Then she was caught.
"Jinnian..."
