In the main hall of the Residence of Lin.

Nangong Lin expressionlessly sat on his seat and his hawk-like eyes firmly stared at Yan Xiaoxi. His strength was so strong that it seemed as if it wanted to skin him alive.

"Little Linlin." Yan Xiaoxi smiled coquettishly as she hugged Nangong Lin's well-built arm, trying to curry favor with him.

If she wanted that, she could agree to it. In any case, she did not hate that feeling, but if she wanted to make her starve, she might as well kill her. This way, at least she would not be tortured.

It was precisely because Nangong Lin knew this that he wanted to use this method to tame Yan Xiaoxi.

"Woman, you're really too reckless and reckless." Even though Nangong Lin knew why Yan Xiaoxi was angry, he could not help but feel astonished at how brazen she was.

According to Yan Xiaoxi's fearless personality, if something happened and he wasn't by her side, how would she respond?

Even though he knew that Yan Xiaoxi wasn't a pushover, he still couldn't help but worry over her.

It was unknown when, but Yan Xiaoxi's every move and gesture had begun to affect his emotions.

"I really don't dare to." As she spoke these words, Yan Xiaoxi sheepishly stuck out her tongue, as if even she didn't trust her own words.

She stared at Nangong Lin with innocent eyes and looked at him pitifully, wanting him to let her off softly.

However, Nangong Lin just calmly looked at Yan Xiaoxi, not moving at all.

"This King will never take back the words he said." Nangong Lin's tone was as cold as ever.

Yan Xiaoxi took a look and immediately understood that Nangong Lin was serious this time around. With her understanding of him, once he was serious and made a decision, no matter who it was, it would not change.

As she thought of this, Yan Xiaoxi suddenly felt wronged.

The scene of Nangong Lin and Liu Zhixue embracing and hugging each other in the cold palace appeared in her mind. She was unwilling to imagine what happened after that.

In an instant, her original apology was gone.

That's right, she hadn't considered the consequences and had thought about her status as an imperial concubine before committing inappropriate actions. But why hadn't she stayed in the estate and left her home? Wasn't she blaming him for everything?

Home? That's right, Yan Xiaoxi had already treated the Residence of Lin Wang as her own home.

Nangong Lin once again witnessed the series of expressions on Yan Xiaoxi's face. With his intelligence, he was naturally able to guess what she was thinking.

"Xi Er." Nangong Lin originally wanted to explain, but just as the words were about to leave his mouth, he swallowed them back.

"Right." Yan Xiaoxi agreed.

"I'll only punish you to not eat for three days." In the end, Nangong Lin chose to give in.

When Yan Xiaoxi heard this, she was stunned. She did not expect Nangong Lin to say this. He was still so stubborn. He wanted to punish her for his nonsense.

What about him? What punishment should others be punished?

"So what if I don't eat?" Yan Xiaoxi stood up angrily and returned to her room.

She stayed in her room all day, not taking a single step.

Nangong Lin was afraid that his heart would soften towards Yan Xiaoxi. He did not return to his room and instead stayed in his study.

When it was time for dinner, Yan Xiaoxi's stomach was growling in hunger. Originally, playing the zither at Hundred Flowers Restaurant and dancing had consumed a lot of energy. Furthermore, she hadn't eaten yet, so Yan Xiaoxi felt that she was about to faint from hunger.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she withdrew the 10,000 silver on her body, then a brilliant smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.

Hmph, she was rich, so why did she have to stay at the mansion to eat? Why didn't she go to a restaurant to eat?

As she thought of this, Yan Xiaoxi's worried expression turned into a smile.

In the next moment, Yan Xiaoxi walked out of the room and headed straight for the door.

When she reached the door, she wanted to leave, but was stopped by two servants. "I'm sorry, wangfei. The prince ordered that you are not allowed to leave the house."

"On what basis?" Yan Xiaoxi grumpily asked the servant.

"This little one is only following orders." The servant looked at Yan Xiaoxi with a troubled expression.

"Do you think it's rare for you to stay with me?" It was not that Yan Xiaoxi was conceited. Even though her martial arts skills were not the best in the world, it was more than enough for two servants.

"Your highness also has something else to tell your highness. As long as Your highness steps out of this door today, your previous agreement will be cancelled?" Although the servant didn't understand the meaning behind those words, he still transmitted the message.

Only then did Yan Xiaoxi recall the agreement she had made with Nangong Lin to search for the treasure.

In that case, what Nangong Lin meant was that, as long as she walked out of this door today, there would no longer be any relation between them.

Hehe, Yan Xiaoxi's heart sank to the bottom in an instant.

Yan Xiaoxi wasn't scared, she had no choice but to leave the clan if he didn't want her to leave.

Yan Xiaoxi glanced at the two servants, then lifted her foot and walked out.

The two servants looked at Yan Xiaoxi in disbelief. No one had ever dared to rebel against the prince's words. His Highness' words should have been a warning to the wangfei, but why was she so unmoved?

"Princess, please reconsider." The servants actually liked Yan Xiaoxi, this naive, kind-hearted and scheming wangfei, and did not want her to be punished by Nangong Lin.

What the servants didn't notice was that Yan Xiaoxi's foot hadn't even touched the ground. At this critical moment, she hesitated.

At that moment, she only had one thought in her mind. What if she didn't see Nangong Lin in the future?

Yan Xiaoxi stood still like a statue, not moving at all. Her mind had already spun a thousand times over and over, countless questions appearing in her head, causing her to be extremely conflicted.

At the same time, the memories of his interactions with Nangong Lin appeared in her mind step by step. It was like a play with shadows, appearing in front of her eyes.

Suddenly, Yan Xiaoxi withdrew her leg and turned to leave.

At this moment, Yan Xiaoxi despised herself because she had lost the courage she had in the past.

His heart had long since unknowingly fallen.

The servants gaped at Yan Xiaoxi as she turned her head back, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

Yan Xiaoxi returned to her room, but she did not return to her room. Instead, she went to her study.

This time, she did not pass through any of the inheritors before she barged in. The guards at the entrance were a lot calmer now that they had experienced the breathtaking events from last time.

Within the manor, anyone could see that the prince doted heavily on his wangfei. Presumably, he wouldn't be punished because of this.

"Little Linlin." After entering the study, Yan Xiaoxi sat down on a chair.

Nangong Lin raised his head and saw the elated Yan Xiaoxi walk in. This woman would always turn the tables faster than flipping a book.

Just a moment ago, the sky had been filled with dark clouds, and now, it was clear and cloudy. People couldn't help but admire her strong heart.

Seeing that Nangong Lin was still looking at the letter on the table and had no intention of paying any attention to her, Yan Xiaoxi stood up and walked over to Yan Xiaoxi's side.

"I'm hungry." Yan Xiaoxi had always been straightforward and straightforward. She had never known what it was that was beating around the bush.

"Punishment." Nangong Lin coldly spat out these two words, not even sparing Yan Xiaoxi a glance.

Wuu." "Yan Xiaoxi pretended to look pitifully at Nangong Lin, but he remained indifferent.

This time, Yan Xiaoxi finally understood that this man's heart had been eaten by a dog. No matter what she did, he would not be moved.

Forget about it. Eating a single meal would not cause her to starve to death. She did not believe that Nangong Lin could really starve her for three days.
