Chapter 268: Nuonuo Is Bullied

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

“Little Han, Nuonuo must have been bullied. Does Yu Xin treat her badly?” Ke Ruan grabbed Si Yuhan’s arm.

Si Yuhan said, “Don’t worry. She has said in the letter that Yu Xin treats her very well.”

Ke Ruan shook his head. “I don’t believe it. If nothing had happened, Nuonuo wouldn’t be so sad.”

Si Yuhan consoled him, “Don’t worry. I’ll send someone to investigate, okay?”

Ke Ruan calmed down. Indeed, an investigation was needed. He looked at Si Yuhan and said, “Do you have any news from the people you sent to protect her?”

A trace of darkness flashed across Si Yuhan’s eyes. “No, maybe something happened. I will deal with it. Don’t worry.”

How could Ke Ruan not worry about it?

Si Yuhan sighed, “I’ll go and get it done right away, okay?”

Ke Ruan nodded. “I’ll go with you.”

No way. Si Yuhan pressed Ke Ruan, who was about to get up. “Be good, you don’t have any strength right now. You haven’t rested for a whole day and must be tired. Rest well I’ll go deal with it.”

Ke Ruan’s face instantly turned red. He got so upset about the letter that the blanket had slid down to his waist, revealing the hickeys. He quickly covered himself with the blanket.

Si Yuhan chuckled softly. “I’ll be right back. Wait for me.”

Ke Ruan nodded with his bright eyes, “Hurry up.”

Si Yuhan stiffened. If he hadn‘’t known what Ke Ruan was thinking, he would definitely have him again.

He tried to hold his breath and got up. He went out, and the cold wind gradually cooled down.

Si Yuhan didn’t go to the imperial study. Instead, he stayed outside the Ruanhan Palace. A secret guard instantly appeared in front of him.

“Your Majesty, it’s settled.”

Si Yuhan said coldly, “Proceed with the plan.”

“Yes!” Si Yuhan was left alone soon. He didn’t want to hide it from Ke Ruan, but he didn’t want him to be in danger.

After standing outside the palace for a long time, Si Yuhan turned around and walked in. Right after Si Yuhan left, Ke Ruan got up and put on his clothes, waiting for him on the stool.

He went up hastily at sight of Si Yuhan. Before he said anything, he felt the chilliness on Si Yuhan. Of course, it was different from the chilliness when he was angry. It was entirely caused by the weather outside.

Ke Ruan stopped, turned around and took a big cloak from the rack. “Why are you so cold? Don’t catch a cold.”

Si Yuhan was taken aback. Ke Ruan was as thoughtful to him as when he was young, but it was different now.

“I’m not cold,” Si Yuhan said, but he still tightened the cloak.

Ke Ruan rolled his eyes at him. Winter was approaching. How could he say it was not cold? Ke Ruan asked the palace maids to bring in hibachi, which warmed up the room.

He reached out and touched Si Yuhan’s hand, which got much warmer. He said, “You’re grown-up now, but you don’t know how to take good care of yourself.”

Feeling that he was getting warm, Si Yuhan reached out and pulled Ke Ruan over, putting him on his lap.

Ke Ruan didn’t resist, nestling docilely in his arms. “Have you investigated?”

Si Yuhan said softly, “Yes.”

He told Ke Ruan in detail what Ke Nuo had experienced in South Kingdom, including the evil intention of Yu Wei, the crown prince of South Kingdom.

As Ke Ruan listened, he grew angry. When he knew that Yu Wei had actually attacked his sister, he was furious.
