Prince, Not Tonight

The little tree's words made Tang San ponder for a moment. Then, with a calm and determined voice, he slowly said, "As long as I am still alive, no matter what happens, no matter what circumstances, I will protect her at the first possible moment."

The small tree glanced at him, unsure if he could do it.

Within the room, Cloudy Clouds had finished stir-frying the last dish and was holding a hot claypot as he hollered for everyone to eat.

Tang San and the others did not speak any further. One in front and one behind, they walked into the small and warm dining hall.

In the dining room, the children were still smiling and looking peaceful.

Nan Si Yue stayed at the seaside for a long time. The sea breeze was brackish, and when it brushed against her face, it was secretly painful.

At dusk, the sea began to rise. First, it came up to his feet. Slowly, it got to his ankles, his calves, and the hem of his clothes …

Nan Siyue did not move away from him. He stood there quietly, touching the rising water bit by bit, the small but powerful waves pounding against his body, the wind growing stronger and stronger, but the rays of the sun as they went down, the heat still struggling in the wind, slowly flowing from his pale forehead to his cheek, to his high nose, and finally across his chin and then out of sight.

Nan Si Yue couldn't see it, but he could clearly feel the passage of time. The water was rising higher and higher, almost overtaking his legs. On the beach, a few hurried looking men dressed as guards were walking back and forth. When they saw Nan Si Yue in the distance, they cheered and rushed over without a care. One of them, a handsome young man with a strong build and more courage, walked closer and shouted in the waves, "My lord, the tide is rising! "Go back!"

As if she didn't feel it, Nan Si Yue asked a completely unrelated question, "Is it already completely dark?"

At the end of the sea, a few weak stars had already risen.

But the sky had indeed darkened.

"Reporting to Your Highness, it's almost nineties." The youth loudly replied.

"Oh." Nan Si Yue replied with a shallow 'oh'. He lowered his eyes slightly, turned around, waded into the water, and walked towards the shore with his wind instrument.

Everyone froze for a moment before following closely behind.

When they arrived at the cold beach that had no tidewater, Nan Si Yue suddenly turned her head and ordered the handsome young man closest to him, "Ah Gou, make the arrangements. I want to see them."

"Prince, it's best if we don't interfere in the matters of the Tang Palace. The Tang Palace is originally the Night's Eagles. This time, they're biting off dogs, which are beneficial to the Southern King's Estate." Young man, he hesitated and tried to dissuade her.

Nan Si Yue did not say anything and just glanced at him indifferently.

Her clear, amber eyes suddenly shone with a bright light, so cold that no one dared to look her in the eye.

He lowered his head and left with quick steps.
