I insist

Chapter 87: Taking her out to meet people

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu couldn't help but blush, but she quickly composed herself and withdrew her hand.

To her surprise, a smile appeared on the face that was being covered, and she grabbed it with her hand.

"Is there something you need, Your Highness? Why are you staring at my master?"

Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince naturally wanted to find something else to keep Song Miqiu busy, but as he opened his mouth to speak, he saw the two getting closer and closer, and ultimately turned back to his seat.

As expected, they had ulterior motives.

When Song Miqiu saw the Crown Prince suddenly turn and leave, she looked at Yu Huailin behind her in confusion and found that the other man's usually stern face had a slight smile on it.

I initially thought he had already agreed, but the moment I saw him lower his head, he reverted to his original resentful expression as he looked at me.

"Could you please stop looking at me like that?"

"What expression should I use? Should I wear that obsequious smile like those other people?"

Upon hearing Yu Huailin's words, Song Miqiu didn't know how to respond, and could only sigh once again.

The meal was tasteless, and in the end she simply went back to the carriage and sat down by the window.

Because of his awkward position, Yu Huailin naturally followed along, but he was unwilling to give her even the slightest bit of attention.

"If you insist on calculating it that way, then I'm the one who should hate you."

"You should be grateful that I spared your life by only using such a small amount of poison."

Upon hearing this, Yu Huailin clearly wanted to retort, but at the last moment he frowned, shook his hand, and tried to get off the bus.

Unfortunately, before they could do anything, they had to pretend to be asleep and not listen to any further words because they remembered the poison.

Song Miqiu didn't care about his actions at all, and instead sighed once again.

"I just wanted to take them to live a peaceful life, but you forced me into this dangerous situation."

After saying this, she stopped talking, curled up into a ball, and buried her head between her legs.

Sitting next to him, Yu Huailin noticed the other person's movements, frowned, and was about to say something when he heard a series of sighs.

When the others boarded the carriage again, the two remained in the same position, which only added to the confusion.

But they didn't dare to ask casually. After glancing at the other places a couple more times, they lowered their voices and started talking about the situation in other locations.

Song Miqiu was half asleep, and with the carriage swaying constantly, she felt even more uncomfortable, so she stretched out her body and clung tightly to the person next to her.

As the days passed, the group finally appeared in front of the Kyoto city gates.

"His Royal Highness..."

"Arrange for them to stay in a secluded courtyard and treat them well."

After saying this, he followed the people who came to pick him up, got into a more exquisite carriage, and disappeared at the end of the street.

Song Miqiu watched the group leave before turning to look at the person the Crown Prince had instructed, his brows furrowing once more.

"Young man, this is our first time here. Why don't you show us around the area first..."

"That won't do. His Highness has instructed me to escort the two of you to the villa now."

Knowing that she couldn't go out for the time being, Song Miqiu simply glanced around with a regretful expression before pulling the carriage curtain closed again and sitting down next to Yu Huailin.

Is there anywhere you'd like to go?

"No."

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu nodded and then stopped asking questions.

When she finally saw a soft bed, her first instinct was naturally to lie down and get some rest.

Without even glancing at Yu Huailin who was still following behind him, he turned over and lay down on the quilt, falling asleep soon after.

In a daze, Song Miqiu suddenly heard someone call her name.

He struggled to open his eyes, but instead of the room, he saw a scene filled with fog.

Song Miqiu knew it was a dream and wanted to find a place to rest, but then she pulled herself up with her slightly cold hand.

The next instant, the surrounding mist dissipated, and the man revealed his overly refined face with a smile.

How could I be so confused?

"You are……"

Before Song Miqiu could finish speaking, a teacup warmed by hot tea appeared at his lips, and he habitually opened his mouth and drank it down.

When she came to her senses, she heard the man chuckle softly and wrap his other arm around her.

As their faces drew closer, Song Miqiu still couldn't see the pores on the other's face. She couldn't help but reach out and touch the skin, trying to find some flaws.

Unfortunately, that face had no flaws, which even made the other person get closer.

"Naughty."

A deep voice sounded in his ear, sending shivers down Song Miqiu's spine.

Is this the memory of the previous incarnation?

So, this person is her lover?

But why is she all alone now? Has something happened, or is it a threat from that organization?

Song Miqiu had no further memories and shook her head helplessly, still wanting to continue searching for other clues through her dream.

But she hadn't taken more than a few steps when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. When she turned around, the man who had been following her had disappeared, and in his place was Yu Huailin calling out.

"Song Miqiu, why are you sleeping so soundly?"

"Get up quickly, I need to go out."

She was shaken violently by Yu Huailin, forced to wake up from her dream, and opened her watery eyes to look at him.

It took her a while to react, and she nodded to him, who was eager to see her.

Yu Huailin couldn't bear to watch any longer. While uttering words of disdain, he skillfully re-stitched the loose hair back up.

Once Song Miqiu is fully awake, he only needs to change his clothes to go out.

"Could you please investigate someone for me?"

"People? That's a different price."

Upon hearing that money was required, Song Miqiu frowned. She wanted to nod in agreement, but then she remembered that she didn't know the person and that meeting him might expose her. After much hesitation, she ultimately decided not to agree.

The two glanced outside the door, making sure there were no guards around, before walking straight to the other side.

To make themselves stand out, the two didn't go directly to the restaurant. Instead, they wandered around the streets for a while before finally entering a restaurant with a huge signboard.

“You should know that we need to keep a certain distance from each other, so…”

"I know."

The forgotten matter was brought to the fore again, and Yu Huailin's face darkened once more, but he did not refuse as he had in the past. He raised his hand and pointed to the large table where eight people were sitting.

Just as Yu Huailin was about to find an excuse to go somewhere far away, he suddenly got up and climbed out of the inconspicuous window in two steps.

Song Miqiu was about to get up and look, but found that the other person suddenly lowered his head and pointed to the chair he had just been sitting in.

The meaning is self-evident.

She wanted to haggle, but then she felt something fly over quickly and was forced to retreat to her previous position.
