Chapter 399 - 378 Second Update
"Has Lord Ju woken up?" Prince Duan had just entered the courtyard, thinking that this courtyard was located in a secluded part of the mansion, making it somewhat inconvenient to come and go. Now that the Crown Prince had left, it seemed both reasonable and appropriate to move Ju Nanyi to a better courtyard.
"Prince, Prince—" Yu Yuan had some free time and was dozing off. He hastily stood up and pointed at the room.
"I noticed that Lord Ju was asleep, and his sleep seemed restless. I am clumsy and heavy-handed with tasks, so I waited outside." Yu Yuan said, and then suddenly, upon seeing the shockingly beautiful face following Prince Duan, his mind went blank. A kind of unbearable self-loathing and wish to burrow into the ground, born from an inferiority and shame, overtook him, leaving him at a loss for words.
"Lord Yu’s efforts are appreciated," Prince Duan said politely. Indeed, he should assign two maids to come over. After all, how could a man take good care of Lord Ju?
"Prince—" While Yu Yuan was in a daze, Prince Duan had already crossed in front of him and walked towards the room, Yu Yuan anxiously wanted to follow but didn’t dare to, "Prince, Lord Ju..."
"Shush—" Prince Duan turned his head and gestured for Yu Yuan to lower his voice. If Ju Nanyi was asleep, they would leave, "We’ll just take a look and then leave—"
Leaving things behind would show that they cared.
Ju Nanyi instantly woke up the moment the door opened. That familiar faint scent wafted in, and the next moment, Ju Nanyi realized who the visitor was, his heart already twisting in anguish. An emotion that wasn’t his—a resentful, frustrated, and painfully suppressed feeling—flooded all his senses, confusing and overwhelming him.
"Prince, it seems he is still asleep—" Seeing no movement, Yu Yuan automatically disregarded the fact that Ju Nanyi’s movements were extremely limited, and immediately turned to speak with Prince Duan.
