“You mean…”

“What I mean is to let her stay in prison. The more you interfere, the more disadvantageous it’ll be for her. Consider this her punishment. This is good for everyone,” the little bun said, sounding very mature.

“But Shixuan definitely won’t be able to get used to life in prison. I…” Liu Xiaolan said worriedly.

“Then, based on your words, do you mean that people don’t have to be punished for their mistakes?” the little bun retorted, slightly angry.

“T-that’s not what I meant…” Liu Xiaolan sighed, shaking his head. At the same time, he gradually calmed down. He wanted to protect Gao Shixuan, but he knew Yu Junjin was right. How could one not be punished for one’s mistake?

After a moment, he lowered his head and said, “Junjin, you can go back first. I’ll consider this matter carefully.”

The little bun knew there was no point in saying anything more. He slowly stood up and patted the dust off his body before he said softly, “Uncle Liu, just wait for us. We’ll think of a way to save you.”

With that, the little bun hurried away with his short legs. When he saw Feng Yili, he patted his chest and said seriously, “Father, I’ve already said what I needed to say.”

“Alright, thank you,” Feng Yili said as he leaned over to carry the little bun.

At this time, Nan Xun frowned and asked stiffly, “Then, do I still need to persuade that idiot?”

“If you think he’ll listen to you, then you can try,” Feng Yili said with a hint of disdain before he left.

Nan Xun looked at Feng Yili gloomily. In the end, he flicked his sleeve and left as well. He was aware of his ability, after all. It was impossible for Liu Xiaolan to listen to him.

Meanwhile, Gao Shixuan was very uneasy when she saw the group leaving. She leaned against the wall that separated her and Liu Xiaolan, asking worriedly, “Second Senior Brother, what did Eldest Senior Brother and the others say to you? Are they going to save us?”

Liu Xiaolan asked, sounding desolate, “Shixuan, why didn’t you tell me you were doing those things?”

Gao Shixuan did not sense the abnormality in Liu Xiaolan’s mood. She said in a low voice, “Second Senior Brother, my jealousy blinded me at that time so I did something stupid. I know my mistakes now. Please forgive me.”

“You said the same thing when we were in Xinan. Shixuan, do you really know your mistakes?” Liu Xiaolan asked, sounding very defeated.

At this time, Gao Shixuan finally noticed Liu Xiaolan’s abnormality. Her tone changed as she said, “Second Senior Brother, what do you mean by that? Don’t tell me you don’t believe me?! It’s fine if they don’t believe me, but Second Senior Brother, how can you not believe me?”

Liu Xiaolan said patiently, “Let’s not talk about this now, okay? Shixuan, as long as you’re willing to change now, everything will get better.”

Then, he continued to say, “Your mistake is quite big this time… However, I believe Eldest Senior Brother will spare your life. After leaving this place, I’ll take care of Zixiu first. Don’t worry. No matter how many years you have to stay in prison, Zixiu and I will wait for you.”

The more sincere Liu Xiaolan’s words were, the more infuriated Gao Shixuan became. She said, incensed, “Second Senior Brother, do you and Eldest Senior Brother want me to stay in jail?!”

“Shixuan, there’s no doubt that you’re in the wrong. Everyone has to pay the price for their actions,” Liu Xiaolan said, sounding very tired.

Gao Shixuan sneered and said sarcastically, “Second Senior Brother, didn’t you say that you’d do anything for me? Earlier, you also said that you’d take the blame for me. Are you going to go back on your words now? Do you think I’m not worthy of you?”

“Shixuan, how can you say this? I don’t mind taking the blame for you. However, what about Zixiu? My identity is special. The more I show that I care about you, the more unwilling the Emperor will be to let you off…” Liu Xiaolan said helplessly. In his memory, his little junior sister had always been very understanding. Why did she become like this?

Liu Xiaolan said solemnly, “Shixuan, I’ve thought it through. The Emperor won’t make things difficult for you for too long. I’ll think of a way to help you. Moreover, if you’ve repented like you said, you won’t mind this at all.”

Gao Shixuan only replied to Liu Xiaolan with silence.

After an unknown amount of time…

A painful moan suddenly rang in the air.

Gao Shixuan sobbed and pleaded, “Second Senior Brother, my stomach hurts. Please, please help me…’

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaolan called out anxiously, “Is anyone there? Please help us!”

Earlier, Feng Yili had dismissed everyone so no one heard Liu Xiaolan’s cry for help.

Liu Xiaolan burned with anxiety, wishing desperately he could go to Gao Shixuan at this moment. Suddenly, he saw something on the ground. It was something Luo Xiuran had accidentally dropped earlier.

In the past, Liu Xiaolan was often locked up by the other mischievous princes when he was in Nanyue’s imperial palace. No one in the imperial palace would save him so he had to learn to save himself. As time passed, he also learned how to pick locks.

Liu Xiaolan gritted his teeth and picked the thing up from the ground. He quickly pried open his locks before he quickly made his way to Gao Shixuan’s cell. He saw her curled on the ground, and her face was pale and twisted in pain.

“Shixuan, don’t be afraid. Second Senior Brother will come and save you now!” Liu Xiaolan said anxiously as he pried the lock.

He rushed inside and quickly helped Gao Shixuan up. He asked worriedly,

“Shixuan, are you okay?”

Suddenly, Gao Shixuan raised her hand and sprinkled powder on his face. He could not dodge in time and was forced to inhale the powder. In just a few moments, he began to feel dizzy. He asked, “S-shixuan, what did you do to me.

Gao Shixuan looked down at Liu Xiaolan and said mockingly, “Second Senior Brother, since you plan to abandon me, then don’t blame me for abandoning you first..

The powder made Liu Xiaolan’s body very painful, but the pain was nothing compared to the pain in his heart. He choked, saying, “Shixuan, why…’

“There’s no why. I just feel that you’re very useless. I’ve long known that you like me, and I’ve also long known about your identity. However, I pretended not to know anything. Guess why,” Gao Shixuan said with a sneer.

Then, without waiting for Liu Xiaolan’s reply, she continued to say nonchalantly, “That’s because you’re stupid and easy to manipulate. Eldest Senior Brother has always been indifferent to me, but because of you, he was still willing to say a few words to me occasionally.. These were the only reasons I was nice to you!”
