Book:The Counterattack of the Princess Published:2024-6-2

“What’s going on today? All of them are abnormal, even Miss is…” Li Xiu muttered as he walked out.
When Yan Ling heard this, he was not angry. I thought that today would be a very leisurely day, but I found that I still have something to do.
Although Yan Ling thought that way, his actions were not easy at all. After Li Xiu and Xiao Meng left, Yan Ling immediately stood up from the recliner and walked towards the other side of the yard.
When he reached the door of Nan Yan’s room, Yan Ling suddenly hesitated. On the one hand, everything Ling thought before was just his own guess. In fact, the antecedents and consequences of the matter might not really be as he thought.
On the other hand, Yan Ling couldn’t help but frown. When Nan Yan saw her in the yard, his expression clearly became uglier, as if he was avoiding her. At this time, she went to look for Nan Yan again, but Ling was not sure whether she was doing this or not.
While Yan Ling was hesitating at the door for a long time, he didn’t knock on the door. While he was still hesitating, Nan Yan’s door suddenly opened.
As soon as Nan Yan opened the door, he saw Yan Ling standing at the door of his room. There was no surprise on his face, as if he had known that Yan Ling had arrived early in the morning.
However, that was true. After all, Nan Yan had practiced martial arts since he was a child. Even after his family had died, he had been learning on his own, but he had never fallen down.
No matter what, Yan Ling was an ordinary person, he would not know how to hide his footsteps. So in fact, Nan Yan already found out when Ling had just stood at the door.
The reason why Nan Yan didn’t say anything was naturally because of his face. Yan Ling was hesitating whether to see Nan Yan or not, so how could Nan Yan not hesitate?
When Nan Yan saw the Bai family again today, he really had the intention to rush directly to the be careless with.
However, Nan Yan soon calmed down. He said he would take him in and promised him that he would give him a chance to achieve what he wanted to do. Nan Yan didn’t want to get tired of his impulses.
It was precisely because of this that Nan Yan looked like that when he saw Yan Ling in the yard. Therefore, Nan Yan had not thought about how to face Yan Ling until now.
“What, aren’t you going to let me sit down?” When Yan Ling saw the expression on Nan Yan’s face, he knew that he had come early. Even so, Yan Ling’s face did not show any awkward expression.
“Come in if you’re willing to come in,” Nan Yan seemed to be a little unaccustomed, and he said stiffly.
Yan Ling didn’t mind at all. When he saw Nan Yan turn around and return to the house, he also stepped in and closed the door.
As soon as Yan Ling entered, he sat opposite Nan Yan. Nan Yan poured a cup of tea for Yan Ling, and then after that, both of them sat silently.
“Miss, ask whatever you want,” after a while, there was still no sound in the room. Nan Yan finally could not hold back and spoke first.
Yan Ling took a sip of his tea and smiled when he heard this. “What do you want me to ask?”
When he heard Yan Ling say that, Nan Yan seemed to have never thought of it at all. He was stunned, and his expression was a little strange.
After a while, Nan Yan continued to ask, “The two of them should have told you about what happened just now. Do you really have nothing to ask me?”
Yan Ling smiled, then looked up at Nan Yan and said, “I do have a lot of questions in my heart, but would you say what I asked you?”
Nan Yan seemed to hesitate for a while, but in the end, he nodded in embarrassment and said seriously, “I’ll tell you if you ask.”
Yan Ling did not seem to have thought that Nan Yan would answer him like that. He thought that he would keep silent on this question and not make a sound.
After all, no matter what, Yan Ling believed that it would definitely be something deep buried in Nan Yan’s heart, or even a wound. It was indeed not easy for Nan Yan to say such honest words.
As for whether Nan Yan would lie to him, this was not part of Yan Ling’s considerations at all. Yan Ling knew very well that if Nan Yan really didn’t want to say it, she would use no means.
What’s more, Ling didn’t intend to force Nan Yan at all, so no matter what angle, Nan Yan had no reason to lie to Ling.
After not hearing Ling’s question for a long time, Nan Yan finally raised his head and carefully looked at Ling.
When Yan Ling saw Nan Yan looking at him, he suddenly came back to his senses. He shook his head and said, “Actually, if you don’t want to, no one will force you. You don’t have to be like this.” I want to know, but I will wait for the day you are willing to tell me.
Nan Yan lowered his head and thought about it. After all, he said with some difficulty, “Thank you. If it’s necessary in the future, I’ll tell you personally.”
When Yan Ling heard this, he smiled and said seriously, “I still said that back then. No matter what you want to do, you have to have the ability first.” Since you are someone under my control, I hope that you will be fine.
Nan Yan nodded, then said awkwardly, “Don’t worry, I won’t do stupid things on impulse, and I won’t implicate you.”
Yan Ling was stunned. Suddenly, he thought of the expression on Nan Yan’s face when he saw him in the yard. He suddenly understood something and felt a little funny.
In the end, he still couldn’t hold it in anymore. Yan Ling suddenly reached out and touched Nan Yan’s hair, then said while he was struggling, “What are you thinking about all day? If I was really afraid that you would drag me down, I wouldn’t have left you by my side back then.
Seeing Nan Yan stunned, Yan Ling continued, “You, Li Yi, softness is the people I value very much. I treat all of you as family members. I don’t want anything to happen to you, so of course, I’m not afraid that you will implicate me. If you need it, you can tell me.
Nan Yan really had some at a loss now. Ever since his family died, no one had ever said the word “family” to him. He had to say that what Yan Ling just said really touched his heart.
Actually, no matter how mature Nan Yan’s appearance was, he was still just a young child. Since he was alone at such a young age, how could he not want a family to accompany him?
No one had said this to Nan Yan before, but when he heard this, Nan Yan suddenly felt touched.
