"Ningning!" Qi Weiming turned around and suddenly called Wen Ning's nickname.

Wen Ning paused and stopped.

She didn't look back, but her breathing became rapid.

How could he call her by her nickname at this time? Is he crazy?

Wen Ning couldn't tell what emotion was in her heart, she just felt that Qi Weiming seemed a little emotional.

Xiao Yunci didn't say anything, just looked at her quietly.

Wen Ning knew that at this time, Xiao Yunci might need her to respond herself.

"Prince Qi." Wen Ning slowly turned sideways to look at him, her face calm and her voice steady, "Your address is very rude."

Qi Weiming called out this just to test Wen Ning's current attitude.

Qi Weiming looked into Wen Ning's eyes, but did not find any wavering in them. Instead, he saw some annoyance.

She has really changed. She is now too arrogant and no longer looks down upon herself as a mere prince of a duke's mansion.

Qi Weiming felt as if a bucket of ice water was poured over his head, and his heart felt cold.

Zhou Mingyan grabbed Qi Weiming's hand, her face looking frighteningly ugly.

"Please forgive me, Your Highness. My husband has been working hard in the court today. He is often a little hysterical, thinking about the peace of the world, so he shouts out the word 'peace' from time to time. Please don't be offended, Your Highness." Zhou Mingyan reacted very quickly.

Xiao Yunci smiled softly, "Prince Qi is really concerned about the peace of the world, which is not easy. I am really touched. Father mentioned today that Prince Qi is very talented, but I am afraid that you are buried in your current position."

Wen Ning heard a hint of coldness in Xiao Yunci's voice.

"How about I propose to my father that since there is little rain in the north this year, let the prince Qi go to the north to help the people and bring peace to the world?"

Qi Weiming's face was pale, he lowered his head and said nothing.

Zhou Mingyan immediately became anxious upon hearing this and wanted to explain, but she heard Xiao Yunci lowering his eyes and looking at Wen Ning tenderly, his voice was as gentle as the clouds in the sky. It was something Zhou Mingyan had never seen before, the cold Xiao Yunci, and the extremely warm appearance of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince -

"Tired?" He smiled slowly, "Is there anything you want to eat? I'll have someone go take a look. If you don't have an appetite, I'll go back and prepare it for you, my beloved concubine."

Wen Ning was a little overwhelmed by his sudden tenderness. She nodded quickly and perfunctorily pulled him inside, not wanting to stay here any longer.

Xiao Yunci left with her with a faint smile.

Zhou Mingyan and Qi Weiming looked at them being so intimate, with different expressions on their faces.

Zhou Mingyan bit her lip and looked at Qi Weiming aggrievedly, but Qi Weiming lowered his eyes and turned around to greet the new guests.

——He still has her in his heart.

Zhou Mingyan suddenly felt that inviting Wen Ning here today was a mistake.

She couldn't get any advantage from the comparison between the two. As long as Wen Ning was there, she would lose.
