Chapter 317 Things are going to change
After accepting the task given to her by her master, Yu Wei disappeared without a trace, like a ghost, as if she had never appeared. As for Su Nuannuan, she resumed her lazy, idling life, spending her days doing nothing, either leisurely reading sketchbooks on a deck chair under the grape trellis in the yard, or teasing the colorful butterflies in the garden.
On this sunny day, with a gentle breeze, Su Nuannuan was engrossed in the world of a storybook when she suddenly heard a familiar voice: "Mother, when can I go to the army camp?"
Su Nuannuan looked up from her book and saw a figure standing in front of her. Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the grape trellis, casting dappled shadows on him. Su Nuannuan looked closely and realized it was her son, Cang Lan Jingcheng, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.
Cang Lan Jingcheng seemed to have grown taller again. His already handsome face now appeared even more dashing, and his large eyes looked intently at Su Nuannuan. Su Nuannuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, how fast time flies, her son is already so grown up.
She shifted her gaze from her son to the storybook in her hands and said casually, "What's the rush? Let's wait a bit longer."
Cang Lan Jingcheng was clearly not satisfied with the answer. He squatted down next to Su Nuannuan's recliner and continued to ask, "Mother, how much longer do we have to wait? Or should I go out and travel like Sister Jianping?"
Upon hearing this, Su Nuannuan put the storybook aside, turned to look at Canglan Jingcheng, and said with a smile, "If your Crown Prince brother agrees, then I naturally have no objection."
Upon hearing this, Canglan Jingcheng was overjoyed. He stood up excitedly and asked expectantly, "Really? Mother!"
Su Nuannuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. She nodded slightly, indicating that she had given an affirmative answer to Cang Lan Jingcheng's question: "Of course it's true. As long as your Crown Prince brother agrees, I will naturally let him go."
Before the words were even finished, Canglan Jingcheng impatiently interjected, "It's a deal! I'll go find my royal brother right now!" As soon as he finished speaking, his figure shot off like an arrow, disappearing from Su Nuannuan's sight in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Jinse couldn't help but look worried. She turned to Su Nuannuan and asked hesitantly, "Your Majesty, do you really intend to let the young prince go out for a trip?"
Su Nuannuan didn't seem to take Jinse's worries to heart. She leisurely picked up the storybook on the small table and replied firmly, "Don't worry, the Crown Prince will definitely not let him out."
Upon hearing this, Jinse still had some doubts, but seeing Su Nuannuan's certainty, she didn't say anything more. She simply gave her mistress, who was engrossed in reading the storybook, a rather strange look, and then remained silent.
However, Jinse kept muttering to herself, "Poor little prince, I'm afraid he'll be disappointed this time..."
Just then, Su Nuannuan suddenly shouted angrily, "What kind of rubbish is this! It's infuriating!" The more she read, the angrier she became, and finally, in a fit of rage, she slammed the book in her hand onto the small table next to her.
Seeing this, Jinse quickly stepped forward and gently comforted her, "Your Majesty, please calm down. This is just a storybook. Why are you so angry?"
"I simply can't stand it anymore! The person who wrote this story must be a man, and a gigolo at that! Not only does he portray himself as so noble and high-class, but he also belittles the female lead to nothing, and he's a complete love-struck idiot! How could I possibly stand reading something like this? It's just too much of an eyesore!"
Su Nuannuan grew angrier as she spoke, and finally closed her eyes and waved her hand forcefully, as if trying to wipe the storybook she loathed from her eyes completely.
However, at that moment, an idea suddenly flashed through Su Nuannuan's mind. She opened her eyes abruptly and said excitedly, "Why don't I write a storybook too?"
These words startled Jinse, who was standing nearby. Her eyes widened, and she stammered, "Mother...Your Majesty, what...what did you say?"
Su Nuannuan turned to look at Jinse, raised an eyebrow, and asked with a half-smile, "What? Can't your lady write a storybook?"
Jinse shuddered at Su Nuannuan's gaze and quickly waved her hands, saying, "I can write, I can write, of course I can write! Your Majesty, you are so talented, writing a storybook is definitely no problem for you!"
Seeing this, Su Nuannuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "You know what's good for you." Then she raised the corners of her mouth slightly and revealed a faint smile.
Seeing that Su Nuannuan wasn't angry, Jinse finally felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders. She secretly patted her chest and then quietly exhaled, as if she had just experienced a thrilling adventure.
Su Nuannuan took in Jinse's little actions, and her smile deepened, her eyes filled with mockery.
"Your Majesty, where are you going?" Jinse's heart tightened when she saw her mistress suddenly stand up from the recliner, and she quickly asked.
"Oh, I'm going to write a storybook," Su Nuannuan replied lazily, stretching.
"Your Majesty, you...you really want to write it?" Jinse looked astonished, seemingly very surprised by Su Nuannuan's decision.
"Otherwise what?" Su Nuannuan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looking at Jinse with a half-smile, "I'm not joking with you."
Seeing this, Jinse suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon, helplessly lowered her head, and muttered, "Fine..."
"Alright, alright, don't look like that!" Su Nuannuan quickly comforted her with a smile, "I just got up to stretch my muscles and tease you a bit."
"Your Majesty~, you're just teasing me." Upon hearing this, Jinse suddenly raised her head, stomped her foot, and exclaimed coquettishly.
"Oh ho!" Su Nuannuan couldn't help but laugh when she saw this. "It's really rare to see our Jinse stomping her feet!"
In the past, Su Nuannuan loved to tease Yaoqin, but since Yaoqin left with Jianping, she felt like she hadn't teased anyone in a long time.
Today, she just had a sudden urge to tease Jinse, but she never expected to see such an interesting side of Jinse.
Just as Su Nuannuan was teasing Jinse, her gaze suddenly caught sight of Yu Wei quietly bowing to her in the shadows not far away. Su Nuannuan was overjoyed and immediately understood that Yu Wei must have taken care of things.
Su Nuannuan's smile grew even brighter. She looked up at the sky and murmured to herself, "The weather is probably about to change..."
