Fei Yanchen noticed the movements of the small person in his arms and held her tighter.
He pressed Shen Yu’an’s head against his chest, shielding her from the cold wind.
Shen Yu’an sensed the warmth and snuggled comfortably, then contentedly closed her half-opened eyes.
Fei Yanchen accurately found the room that belonged to Shen Yu’an and walked in, pushing the door open.
He openly entered Shen Yu’an’s room and carried her all the way to the bed.
When he reached the bedside, he was reluctant to let go of the small person in his arms.
However, upon hearing footsteps behind him, he carefully placed her on the bed, removed her shoes, and covered her with a blanket.
Fei Yanchen looked around the room. It wasn’t big or small, but it contained a bed, a table, and a desk.
There was a bronze mirror on the table, devoid of the cosmetics commonly used by girls. Instead, there was a stack of papers with unknown writings.
Fei Yanchen furrowed his brow. It was still too plain.
Footsteps gradually approached from behind. It was Song Shi and the others coming over.
They saw Fei Yanchen picking up Shen Yu’an and leaving in the kitchen, and some of them didn’t react immediately.
It took them a moment to realize something was wrong, and then they quickly followed.
By the time they caught up to the door, Fei Yanchen had already walked out with his long strides.
His face softened, and with a hint of apology, he said to Song Shi and the others, “I noticed that An’An was quite drunk, so I took the liberty of carrying her over. I apologize for any inconvenience caused.”
The confusion that had been on everyone’s lips suddenly became difficult to express.
After all, Fei Yanchen had brought Shen Yu’an over with good intentions, hadn’t he?
Song Shi smiled and said, “It’s no problem at all. You’ve done us a favor.”
There were probably only three people present who weren’t fooled by Fei Yanchen’s words.
Others, despite feeling something amiss, hadn’t quite caught on yet.
Fei Dong was surprised and pretended to look around, then glanced at his own master.
Why did Fei Dong feel like the situation wasn’t as the Crown Prince had described?
If it was something the Crown Prince didn’t want to do, even if others tried to trouble him, they wouldn’t be able to. How could he willingly invite trouble upon himself?
Fei Dong glanced at Fei Yanchen in bewilderment and found Fei Yanchen’s gaze directed at him. He quickly averted his eyes, as if nothing had happened.
Then there were Ji Xun and Zhang Wendong.
Ji Xun stared at Fei Yanchen with an ambiguous expression, showing no fear in the face of the warning glares directed at him.
Ji Xun snorted inwardly. This thick-skinned guy shouldn’t think that he hadn’t noticed anything.
He raised an eyebrow at Fei Yanchen, silently conveying a message: “Now, I also have something to hold against you. Be polite to me from now on.”
Fei Yanchen didn’t even give him a glance.
Zhang Wendong was also somewhat displeased with Fei Yanchen’s act of carrying Shen Yu’an back.
Considering his own identity, he couldn’t suppress his feelings in the end.
In an unfriendly tone, he said, “An’An is a lady after all. Young Master Fei, it would be better to keep your distance from her. Acts like this will only add to An’An’s troubles, and if it spreads, it won’t be good for her reputation.”
Fei Yanchen remained gentle in his demeanor, seemingly oblivious to the sarcasm in Zhang Wendong’s tone.
With a grateful tone, he responded, “You’re right, Brother Zhang. I will be more cautious in the future. However, there are no outsiders here, so I believe this matter won’t be spread, and An’An’s reputation won’t be damaged.”
“What does brother Zhang think?”
Zhang Wendong’s expression wasn’t too pleasant, and he didn’t feel like answering Fei Yanchen’s remark.
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, the others quickly tried to defuse the situation.
“Heh heh, what Wendong said is not wrong, but thanks to Yanchen for his actions.”
Fei Yanchen smiled and nodded in response.
Ji Xun: “…” Shameless!!!
Shen Yu’an had fallen asleep, but there was still a mess in the kitchen. Luckily, everyone had just finished eating.
Just as they were about to let Shen Yu’an rest and go clean up, a loud exclamation suddenly came from inside the room.
“If you can withstand three moves from me, I will relinquish my position as the leader of the martial arts alliance to you!”
The expressions of the people present changed dramatically as they all looked towards the room.
Fei Yanchen, standing at the doorway, turned his head and saw the situation inside.
Shen Yu’an sat up straight, pointing her finger at the empty space in front of her.
