Su Qian thought for a moment and felt that it was unlikely.
In her impression, the Empress Dowager wasn’t a petty person.
Sure enough, Xiao Yan denied her guess, “Imperial Grandmother naturally wouldn’t be so petty, I’m just curious what you were busy with last night?”
Su Qian sat in front of the table, her jade-like fingertips tapping gently. She pursed her lips and said, “Your Highness, is the Empress Dowager curious, or are you curious?”
Xiao Yan smiled very honestly when he heard that. “Of course, it’s me.”
“Then there’s no need to answer.” Su Qian smiled casually. The smile in her eyes made her look like a sly little fox.
Xiao Yan didn’t mind at all when he heard this. Instead, he became even more interested. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “Why can you answer Imperial Grandmother but not me?”
“I broke the appointment yesterday, it was my fault. If Empress Dowager asked me, out of courtesy and reason, I would have to answer her properly, but Your Highness is different. You were just accompanying me for a meal, it doesn’t matter if I answer or not.” After saying that, Su Qian took the tea from Qian Rong and took a sip.
“Imperial Grandmother has never liked others breaking appointments, so in order to not let Imperial Grandmother worry yesterday, I specially helped you think of an excuse.” Xiao Yan slowly narrowed his eyes and said.
Su Qian glanced at Xiao Yan curiously and asked,” What excuse?”
Hearing Su Qian’s question, Xiao Yan’s eyes hid a deep smile as he said slowly, “I told Imperial Grandmother that you couldn’t make it last night because you were with me.”
When Su Qian heard this, she almost spat out the tea.
“Your Highness, is it really okay for you to deceive an old person like this?” Su Qian forcefully swallowed the tea in her mouth and looked at Xiao Yan with disdain.
However, Xiao Yan was calm and composed as he said disapprovingly, “What’s wrong? Imperial Grandmother was quite happy when she heard this.”
“Then why did Your Highness tell me?” Su Qian thought that the Empress Dowager might have misunderstood her relationship with Xiao Yan and felt a headache.
“Naturally, I’m giving you a warning in advance so that you can be prepared. Don’t let it slip.” Xiao Yan calmly smiled and said.
Su Qian felt that the man in front of her was like a sly fox. She put down the teacup in her hand and said, “Then, it’s time for Your Highness to finish speaking and go back.”
Anyone with ears would be able to hear Su Qian’s order to leave, but Xiao Yan pretended not to understand. He pushed his wheelchair closer and sat down beside Su Qian. “I worked hard to come up with an excuse for the Imperial Grandmother. Don’t I deserve a reward?”
“I don’t intend to give one.” Su Qian smiled and made a gesture to indicate his departure. “Please, Your Highness. Feel free to leave.”
“There’s no hurry. I’ll leave after breakfast.” Xiao Yan had an appearance as if he had made up his mind to stay here.
Su Qian wanted to lift this man’s ear and question him if the Ninth Prince’s Residence didn’t have breakfast.
However, she felt guilty for breaking the appointment last night. She could only let Xiao Yan linger and asked Qian Rong to rush the Kitchen to send some breakfast over.
The little buns had just woken up and were happily looking for their mother for breakfast. However, when they entered the dining room, they saw Xiao Yan there as well. Their originally bright smiles immediately collapsed..
