The man in front of her stared at her in disbelief. He seemed to want to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat.
However, the more Xiao Van couldn’t speak, the darker his expression became. It was as if there was an invisible storm brewing in his eyes, wantonly twisting his eyes. “1 didn’t expect you to have such a preference. 1 understand now.”
Su Qian looked at Xiao Yan strangely, unable to understand what was wrong with this man.
However, Xiao Yan didn’t explain and the two of them had already arrived at the Ninth Prince’s Residence.
The carriage came to a steady stop. The hidden guards in the manor immediately stepped forward and escorted Xiao Yan out together.
Helpless, Su Qian could only put this matter aside for the time being and followed Xiao Yan out of the carriage.
Xiao Yan remained silent since he got out of the carriage, leaving only Su Qian with a graceful figure sitting in a wheelchair. His gaze was deep as he quickly returned to the study.
Dong Yan was responsible for bringing Su Qian to her room.
A moment later, in Xiao Van’s courtyard.
“Miss Su, this is your room. After a while, His Highness will come over after he’s done with his matters. At that time, if Miss Su has anything to ask His Highness, feel free to do so.” Dong Van’s lips curled into a casual smile. After saying this, he didn’t forget to smile and make an inviting gesture at Su Qian and pushed open the door.
The room was already prepared. Su Qian looked at the fresh and elegant room in front of her and was quite satisfied. “Thank you.”
“It’s fine. In a while, there will be a special maid to serve the Young Miss. If you need anything, just instruct the maid.” After saying that, Dong Yan bowed to Su Qian and turned to leave.
Su Qian looked around the room and then sat down on the edge of the bed.
Thinking back to Xiao Van’s strange reaction just now, Su Qian felt a little strange.
She did not know why, but she felt that Xiao Van’s last words to her were not right. However, if she had to say what exactly was wrong, she couldn’t put it into words.
Just as Su Qian was in a dilemma, Xiao Yin’s voice suddenly came from her arms. “Master, it seems like the divine beast is about to wake up.”
Su Qian’s heart stirred, and she immediately took out Xiao Yin and the divine beast.
Xiao Yin followed Su Qian s arm and climbed all the way to her shoulder. Then, he opened his eight beautiful big eyes and curiously looked at the little crow that was still snoring in Su Qian’s palm. “Master, are you sure this little thing is a divine beast? It seems so naive and not very clever.”
“It’s indeed a little silly.” Su Qian raised her hand and poked the little crow s soft and furry stomach. “This little thing actually slept so defenselessly until now. Sigh, I really hope it can be more careful…”
“Snacks? What snacks?” The little crow, who had been sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up. it looked around excitedly and asked with great enthusiasm.
Seeing this scene, Su Qian couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows.
If she hadn’t personally carried this little thing out of the divine beast egg, she would have suspected that this heartless, greedy, and lecherous little crow was really a divine beast.
The little crow looked around. After confirming that there was nothing good to eat, it revealed a dejected expression. “Where are the snacks? You humans just like to deceive innocent and kind-hearted divine beasts like us..”
