Since Qu Nian's body was possessed by real Dog Meat, it can only make strange noises, but it cannot speak.
So when Wencui heard Qu Nian speak and saw that he was as angry as ever, she forgot her fear and felt only joy.
"Get out of here!" Qu Nian said unhappily when she realized she was only wearing her nightgown and Wencui was still standing there.
As Ren Yingying once said, flies don't land on eggs without cracks; men should also have male virtues.
He's unworthy of his position; he deserves to be a bachelor.
Holy crap!
Qu Nian cursed, using a shocking phrase that Ren Yingying often used.
Why should he care what that Poisonous Woman Ren says!
He's different from the Prince of Jin!
We are different, so different...
He is a man of authority, Ren Yingying has to listen to him.
Wencui was reprimanded and quickly retreated, secretly regretting her actions. In her moment of passion, how could she have forgotten the aloof nature of the young master?
The Crown Prince detests women who fawn over him. Others may not know, but he, having served the Princess for many years, knows it best.
I made a mistake unintentionally; I hope everyone is overjoyed today and forgets about it soon.
"Stop!" Qu Nian suddenly spoke again.
Wencui was about to step over the threshold when she heard this, but she pulled her foot back.
But before he could speak, he heard Qu Nian again, "Get out!"
Wencui was completely stunned, staring blankly at Qu Nian.
She suspected that the prince had gone astray again!
Is it even human to keep letting people in and out like this?
Qu Nian: "Get out!"
Women are such a hassle; you can't give them a nice look, yet they dare to stare at him blankly.
He wanted to explain that he wasn't blindly obedient to Ren Yingying, which was why he brought Wencui back.
But then I felt I had nothing to say, so I let her leave again.
Wencui quickly "got out".
She needed to carefully consider speaking to the Princess Consort, suggesting that they not have too high hopes for the Crown Prince's recovery.
Well, it seems a little better; he can talk again.
But his mind isn't quite right anymore.
Regret, deep regret. How could I have gotten so excited and blurted out, "Your Highness is good!"
We should be more cautious.
Wencui stood at the courtyard gate, anxiously waiting for Prince of Min and his wife.
Inside the room, Qu Nian was talking to the system.
That's right, even if you turn into a human, the system will still be there.
What's wrong with me?
System: You're asking me? I'm on vacation.
Qu Nian got angry. "Where did you get so many fakes from?"
"A life mentor, and also a teacher, I have winter break."
Qu Nian: "What is winter vacation?"
"I can't be bothered with you, that's always a lie."
Shut up! Nobody wants to argue with you.
The system shut up.
Qu Nian: "Have I returned temporarily, or have I returned forever?"
The system remains silent.
Qu Nian: "Speak to me!"
System: "I don't know."
Qu Nian: I've already become a human being, and you're still acting like a dog!
He was genuinely anxious.
Whether he returns permanently or temporarily, he needs to have different approaches.
However, seeing that he was getting no more hints from the dog system, Qu Nian decided to rely on himself.
We must grasp both aspects firmly!
Prince of Min and his wife arrived in a hurry. Princess Consort Min, holding up her skirt, kept complaining about Prince of Min, who was supporting her.
"What are you doing holding me? Let go! Let go!"
I want to see my son, you bastard, stop holding me back!
Prince of Min: They're always my little darling, but their true colors are revealed in crucial moments. It's heartbreaking.
Poor Wencui, she originally wanted to explain and make amends for herself, but she didn't expect that the princess would not stop at all and would rush into the room directly.
However, once inside the room, she stood at the doorway, covered her chest with a handkerchief, looked at Qu Nian with teary eyes, and dared not approach him.
She feared that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
In Qu Nian's memory, her mother was very strong. She would sometimes act coquettishly and smile in front of her father, but she rarely shed tears.
A pang of sadness welled up in his heart.
I've really let my parents down these past few days.
Qu Nian got up from the bed, walked over and hugged Princess Consort Min, "Mother, I'm sorry for making you worry."
Princess Consort Min burst into tears, pounding her fist on Qu Nian's chest as she cried, "You unfilial son! You unfilial son! If you're still not good enough, I'll have to give birth to your younger brother!"
Qu Nian: "..."
The chubby Prince of Min also looked very excited.
However, burdened by his father's legacy, he feigned seriousness and composure, saying, "Have someone fetch a doctor to examine the young master."
Princess Consort Min wiped her tears with Qu Nian's nightgown. "Yes, yes, let the doctor come and see, so it doesn't turn back into its original form."
Qu Nian: I'm worried too.
He knew that if he were to exchange souls with Dog Meat again, it could happen at any moment, so he had to confess as soon as possible.
"Father, Mother."
Qu Nian invited the two men to take seats, kowtowed to them, and knelt on the ground, saying, "I have important matters to report; please have the others leave."
Princess Consort Min, feeling sorry for her son, quickly helped him up and waved for him to leave.
Prince of Min pretended to drink tea, but he didn't even realize that his teacup was empty, his eyes fixed on his son.
Qu Nian gathered her thoughts and said, "Father, Mother, I might stay healthy, or I might revert to my old state. But no matter what, please don't give up on me, I will come back!"
"Back?" Princess Consort Min keenly grasped the most important message. "Niannu, where are you going?"
Qu Nian was reminded of the Prince of Jin by this title, and immediately gritted his teeth.
"Niannu?"
"Mother, it sounds a bit mystical, but I always feel like my mind is unsettled, and sometimes my body is out of control," Qu Nian said vaguely. "You don't need to believe in any gods or Buddhas, just believe in me."
He worried that his parents, in their desperation, might seek any treatment they could find and end up being scammed.
"And this is the worst-case scenario. It's very possible that once I'm better now, nothing will ever happen to me again."
Princess Consort Min was very clever. "So, during this time, have you developed a relationship with Prince of Jin?"
Otherwise, his son wouldn't have written to ask for help from the Prince of Jin.
Qu Nian nodded. "Yes. Father and Mother, this is the second thing I want to say. If we have to choose sides, we will definitely choose Prince of Jin!"
First, the Prince of Jin has the ability; second, the Prince of Jin is of upright character and clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment...
Qu Nian racked his brains to come up with a bunch of reasons for the Prince of Jin to ascend the throne, and finally added in his mind—
There's another, less important point: if Ren Yingying and Tang Zhuyun were to become enemies, she might be unhappy.
(Ren Yingying: I won't be unhappy, because I would never be enemies with Tangbao. I can just find another man.)
Prince of Min nodded. "Alright, I understand. Niannu, when are you leaving?"
Qu Nian:???
"Father, I may not leave."
He was talking about the worst-case scenario!
Are his parents really considering having another child, a younger brother, and are they in such a hurry to do so?
Angry!
They're practically grandparents now, can't they be a little more mature?
That would scare Ren Yingying... No, it would just give Ren Yingying something to criticize and roast to death.
