Chapter 616: The Pounding Heart

Under the big-brimmed hat, the man's facial profile was handsome and arrogant. Because of the light behind him, Nan Zhi couldn't see clearly his facial features and expression. Even so, it was still so perfect that it was heart-warming.

He stood at the door of the cabin and accepted the cheers of the people.

He has a scornful temperament all over his body, which makes people bow to him involuntarily.

Nan Zhi looked at him from a distance, feeling strange and distant.

Not in terms of distance, but in terms of identity.

After a battle, his whole person seemed to have changed a lot.

The temperament on his body became more and more cold and noble, and absolutely aloof.

There were several little girls standing next to Nan Zhi. The moment they saw Mu Sihan walking out of the plane, they couldn't help but scream and shout.

"The fourth prince is so handsome and cool!"

"It's just like the male protagonist in an idol drama!"

"Oh my God, the key is his temperament, it can really intimidate the whole audience!"

"The fourth princess is so lucky!"

Hearing this, Nan Zhi raised the corners of her lips slightly.

Although everyone still doesn't know her relationship with him, privately, she is his woman.

Nan Zhi lowered her head and glanced at the necklace around her neck.

She hung the ring on it as a pendant.

He became even better, and she felt proud of him.

"Hey, who is the woman coming out behind the Fourth Prince?"

Nan Zhi lowered her head, and when she heard the little girl's words, the smile on her lips froze.

Her head jerked up.

Mu Sihan had already started walking down. At this moment, a pretty figure appeared at the door of the cabin that made people's eyes shine.

The woman looked very young, wearing a white lace-silk dress and a hat of the same color on her head, looking smart and elegant.

"Oh, I heard that a neighboring country is going to send a princess to sign a friendship and peace agreement with our country. Could she be the princess of the neighboring country?"

"That should be the case. The princess looks quirky, playful and cute. She is always smiling!"

"Although the fourth prince is married, the two of them stand together and look quite matched. It's quite eye-catching!"

Nan Zhi's eyes fell on Mu Sihan and the woman behind him.

There was no emotion on Mu Si's cold and handsome face, his thin lips were pursed tightly, and he had always been indifferent.

But the woman behind him, besides the smile on her face, her eyes fell on him from time to time...

Nan Zhi was no stranger to that look.

The hands hanging by his sides tightened unconsciously.

But then I thought about it and realized there was nothing to worry about.

Do you still need to doubt his feelings for her?

When two people are together, the most important thing is to trust each other.

He is so good, so there is no shortage of admirers around him.

All she had to do was trust him.

After thinking about it like this, Nan Zhi suddenly became a lot more enlightened.

After Mu Sihan and the princess from a neighboring country got off the plane, they walked towards Jinhan Palace amid the cheers of the people.

Nan Zhi stood in the front row of the auditorium. When Mu Sihan and his friends walked over, she could look at him up close.

Seeing him walking towards this side step by step with his long and strong legs, her heart almost jumped into her throat.

She cheered along with the others, but her eyes only fell on him from beginning to end.

She really wanted to shout his name and let him know that she was standing here.

In five more steps, he would pass her...

Four steps, three steps, one step...

Nan Zhi thought that his deep black eyes would fall on her for a second or two.

But no, he walked straight past her with his long legs.

She clearly saw his face. His skin was tanned to a healthy wheat color, his face was thin and strong, and his facial features were deep and three-dimensional. He looked more manly than before.

But those eyes were colder and colder than before.

Nan Zhi's beating heart suddenly stopped falling.

It seemed like he was falling into the abyss.

She looked at his tall, straight and stern back, taking deep breaths and trying to adjust her emotions.

…

After the welcome ceremony, Nan Zhi did not leave immediately.

She stood there alone, holding the railing in front of her with both hands, her thick long eyelashes drooping, and her almond-shaped eyes looking a bit startled and confused.

"Gardenia."

When she heard someone calling her, Nan Zhi slowly raised her head. Looking at Shangguan Wan who came over at an unknown time, she bit her lower lip lightly, "Wan'er, is the woman who came back with him a princess from a neighboring country?"

Shangguan Wan nodded, "Yes, she came to sign the friendly peace agreement on behalf of A."

"Wan'er, when Mu Sihan passed by me, he didn't even look at me."

Shangguan Wan stepped forward and patted Nan Zhi's arm gently, "Maybe he didn't see the crowd because there were so many people. Didn't you notice that when he came back this time, he had a face of ice, and he didn't even smile in front of the Queen? . He has never been on the battlefield before, and he has seen too many deaths and partings this time, so he probably hasn’t adjusted his mental state yet!"

Nan Zhi thinks Shangguan Wan is right.

…

night.

Qiao Yanze returned to the castle after attending the palace banquet.

Nan Zhi saw him and rushed to greet him.

Qiao Yanze looked at her looking at him eagerly, and angrily flicked a shudder on her forehead, "I know what you want to know, but I didn't have the chance to talk to him at the palace banquet. But look at him That way, it seems even cooler than before."

Nan Zhi bit her lip, "Did he go back after the palace banquet?"

"What for?" Qiao Yanze glared at Nan Zhi, "Don't tell me that you want to find him."

"Uncle, it's not Mei Zhizhi, it's Brother Kai. I want to see daddy." Xiao Kai ran downstairs and blinked at Qiao Yanze with his big eyes as clear as black glass, "I want to Let Mei Zhizhi take me to the palace to meet my father!"

Qiao Yanze touched Xiao Kai's furry little head and said, "Just protect your mommy!"

…

Qiao Yanze kept saying it, but he really loved Nan Zhi.

Although he drank a lot at night and could not drive, he still escorted the mother and son outside Jinhan Palace.

Because of the relationship between Xiao Kai and Shangguan Wan, Nan Zhi can now enter and leave Jinhan Palace without a pass.

The car was parked outside the fourth prince's palace.

After getting off the car, Nan Zhi led Xiao Kai towards the palace.

During the three months when Mu Sihan was away, Nan Zhi would often bring Xiao Kai over, but he had never been as nervous as now.

The servant told Nan Zhi that Shangguan Wan had returned to Shangguan's house, but Mu Sihan had not returned yet.

"Daddy doesn't know what he's doing. He's still not back at this late hour. Doesn't he miss me and Mei Zhizhi?" Xiao Kai muttered, pouting her pink little mouth.

"I just came back, I must be busy."

As soon as Nan Zhi finished speaking, she heard the sound of a car engine outside, and then the servants rushed towards the door.

"Mei Zhizhi, daddy must be back, let's go out quickly."

Xiao Kai took Nan Zhi's hand and wanted to pull her out, but Nan Zhi withdrew her hand and gently patted the back of Xiao Kai's hand, "Go ahead, Mommy is waiting in the living room."
