I just want to live a good life

Chapter 112 I'm Here, You Don't Have to Be Afraid

In order to wait for Mu Yunting's rash to subside, Su Nuan stayed in the villa for a whole day.

This day was also the day she and Mu Yunting spent the longest time alone, because they ate three meals a day together, and two of the meals were cooked by Su Nuan herself.

Su Nuan felt that her cooking skills were average at best, and the food she made was much worse than that of Chef Kang. However, Mu Yunting not only did not dislike it but also ate it with relish. It surprised Su Nuan that he was so easy to feed.

Because she was kidnapped unexpectedly, Su Nuan had no maid with her. She could do whatever she wanted by herself. It was so comfortable without anyone bothering her.

After dinner, Su Nuan strolled alone in the small garden of the villa.

It is not accurate to call this place a garden, because in the whole garden there are only a few chrysanthemums growing randomly at the storage location, and looking around the entire garden, there are rows of lilacs planted everywhere.

It is late summer now, not the season for lilacs to bloom, so the lilacs in the garden only have green leaves.

How much does this person love lilacs that he planted so many of them!

For some reason, Su Nuan had a feeling that Mu Yunting liked Ding Xiang because of someone, not because of his own preferences.

Is that person really Lou Guang? Su Nuan is not sure.

But no matter what, that person will not be me. Thinking this way, it doesn’t matter who it is.

The next day, a carriage stopped early at the gate of the villa. The coachman was Zhao Zong. When he saw Su Nuan, his expression became more respectful.

Su Nuan was grateful for fighting side by side with Yu the day before yesterday. Although this teammate was a bit of a jerk, it must be said that he still bravely saved her at the critical moment.

In her heart, she already considered him as her own and planned to prepare a gift for him to express her gratitude when she returned.

At this time, Mu Yunting, who was walking behind, suddenly said to Zhao Zong: "I heard that it was you who saved Concubine Xia."

Zhao Zong was slightly startled, then he bowed respectfully to Mu Yunting, "I just did what I should do."

"Go back and find Ding Fu to claim your reward."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your reward!"

Su Nuan blinked.

The carriage started slowly, the wheels rumbled, and the carriage was unusually quiet.

This carriage was originally the one that Su Nuan was used to riding in, and now Mu Yunting was riding with her, and the carriage was filled with the fragrance of plants and trees that belonged to him.

Su Nuan was thinking about how to get the recipe for his spice.

Suddenly, Mu Yunting said, "You don't seem to care about being kidnapped at all. Do you know what impact this will have on you?"

Su Nuan thought for a moment and replied, "Being kidnapped by a strange man would probably damage my reputation."

"Aren't you afraid?"

Don't women care most about their reputation? Seeing Su Nuan's calm appearance, Mu Yunting was quite puzzled.

"The thief, as your highness knows, was knocked unconscious before he could do anything to me."

It sounded as if the thief would do something to her if she was any later. The mere thought of it made people scared. Mu Yunting suddenly clenched his hands on his knees into fists.

"I can't control what others say." Su Nuan said calmly: "Although this matter is not a secret, the only people who know about it are the secret guards around His Highness and the group of thieves. I believe they will not tell anyone about this."

After Su Nuan finished speaking, she looked at Mu Yunting with burning eyes.

"You mean if this matter gets out, it must be that group of thieves who are behind it, and we can find them by following the clues?"

"That's what I mean, but rumors are uncontrollable. It's not easy to find the original spreader."

"Do you have any good ideas?"

"No."

In fact, Su Nuan wanted to start with the fire in the Xia family's old house. She didn't want to let Mu Yunting know before she found the clues, so when they met many times yesterday, she didn't mention that the thief might be related to the fire.

She always felt that there was some secret behind the fire.

Su Nuan didn't say anything, and neither did Zhao Zong. He insisted that he fainted from fright at the time and didn't hear anything the thief said.

Su Nuan didn’t know what his purpose was, so she just assumed that he was really dizzy.

"You don't have to be afraid as long as I'm here. Rumors can't hurt you."

Although she was not afraid, Su Nuan felt happy and cheerful when she heard these words, and her face was full of joy.

"When beating a dog, you have to look at its owner first. To slander you is to be an enemy of my Prince's Mansion. I want to see who is so bold."

After saying this, Mu Yunting looked at Su Nuan leisurely, with the smile in his eyes unable to be hidden.

Su Nuan’s smile froze on her face, and she couldn’t help but complain in her heart: This person really shouldn’t have such a mouth!
