Chapter 71: From Now On, You Are My Sister

Gu An looked at Su Yan, who was so easy to please, and could not help but nod her head.

When she came back to her senses, she was stunned for a moment.

Especially when she noticed that the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up, Gu An’s expression changed for a moment.

Su Yan hugged Gu An’s waist in surprise. “From now on, you are my sister.”

Gu An had already put away the expression on her face.

She felt a little uncomfortable being hugged by Su Yan.

Before she could break free, An Yi had already returned.

“Cough!”

An Yi let out a soft cough.

Su Yan and Gu An quickly separated.

An Yi’s gaze was a little strange as he looked at the two of them.

Previously, on the street, he had seen them making a fuss, so he had followed them.

As a result, he had actually heard Gu An call Su Yan her lover.

Now that he had seen them hugging each other with his own eyes, An Yi felt a little confused.

There was a probing look in his eyes as he looked at the two of them.

Su Yan, who regarded Gu An as her elder sister in her heart, did not notice that there was something wrong with An Yi’s gaze.

However, Gu An noticed it.

She looked at the clueless Su Yan with an obscure gaze and did not say anything to remind her.

Looking at An Yi, Gu An asked, “Where did Mei Jiang and the others go in the end?”

An Yi put his expression away and said, “They entered a small courtyard in the western suburbs.”

After a pause, he asked again, “Who are they?”

Gu An said, “I told you before that His Royal Highness’ body needs a medicinal herb to detoxify.”

Seeing An Yi nod, Gu An continued, “The medicinal herb that His Royal Highness needs, the thousand-year Ganoderma, is in their hands.”

An Yi nodded, “You’ve already got the herb?”

Gu an nodded.

An Yi’s gaze swept across Su Yan. He was about to ask about what happened today when he was interrupted by Gu an.

“I’ll be able to detoxify His Royal Highness tomorrow. All of you please leave. I’ll organize the herbs needed for tomorrow.”

An Yi nodded and walked to the door to wait for Su Yan.

Su Yan smiled at Gu an Yan, “Miracle Doctor An, I’m leaving. You have to rest well too.”

Su Yan looked at the bags under Gu An’s eyes and a trace of heartache flashed across her eyes.

Gu an was stunned. She noticed Su Yan’s gaze and touched the spot under her eyes.

An unknown emotion welled up in her heart.

An Yi looked at the inexplicable flow of emotions between the two and furrowed his brows.

He was thinking about how to report this to Gu Ruoyun.

Su Yan followed An Yi and returned to her own courtyard.

They saw Leng Shuang outside the courtyard.

Leng Shuang sighed in relief when she saw Su Yan.

She had gone to complete a mission today and when she returned, she found that Su Yan had left the residence alone.

Fortunately, she was fine.

An Yi looked at Leng Shuang and said coldly, “From now on, leave the matters of the residence to others. Your mission is to protect the Princess Consort.”

Leng Shuang was taken aback for a moment. She felt that An Yi’s words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

Su Yan also understood what he meant between the lines.

She looked at An Yi strangely.

An Yi did not explain. He left these words behind and left.

Su Yan rubbed her head. She felt that An Yi was rather baffling. He had been suspecting her for the past few days.

Could it be that he still suspected her purpose of entering the residence?

Didn’t she already prove her innocence when she replied to Gu Lingyu’s letter in front of him last time.

Could it be that An Yi had reached menopause.

Su Yan thought gloomily as she looked at Leng Shuang who was in front of her.

She said apologetically, “I’m sorry, you were reprimanded because of me.”

Leng Shuang took a step back and bowed. “Princess Consort, you’re too kind.”

Su Yan looked at Leng Shuang and said, “Leng Shuang, my injuries have healed. Let’s continue practicing martial arts tomorrow.”

Leng Shuang naturally would not disobey Su Yan’s orders.

She took a look at Su Yan’s feet and nodded after confirming that they had indeed recovered.

Su Yan happily said, “Alright, see you at the same time, same place tomorrow.”

After saying this, she returned to her room.

Chu Tao and Chun Xia, who were busy in the room, saw Su Yan return and called out in surprise, “Princess Consort.”

Su Yan nodded and told them about what had happened today.
