Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

 Chapter 396 I will protect you (2)

“Don’t worry, I will take care of this matter!”

Lu Yuan looked at Gu Panxia, ​​his dark eyes seemed to have made some important decision.

 Gu Panxia nodded. She didn't ask him what he wanted to do, and she wouldn't ask. She knew he would handle it well.

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they knew each other, and had a tacit understanding without saying anything. They were in love with each other, and felt pity without saying a word.

 “Where are we going?”

She had learned about the map of the capital when she came here. Most of the people near the city gate were ordinary people doing small businesses. The further in, the higher the class level. First there were the slums, then the rich areas, and then the official areas. family and royal nobility.

“Let’s go back to Lu Mansion to rest first. We will enter the palace tomorrow morning.”

"Go back to Lu Mansion?" Gu Panxia frowned, "Isn't this too abrupt?"

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Abrupt? You are my future wife, Lu Yuan. What's wrong with going to the Lu Mansion?"

"Of course it's abrupt. You also said she was your future wife. If I rush into the Lu Mansion as soon as I arrive in the capital, others may start gossiping again."

Lu Yuan chuckled, "Aren't you going to travel all over the world? People like this are still concerned about these little details? Besides, our engagement is approved by His Majesty, who dares to say more?"

 Gu Panxia shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, I won't go to the Lu Mansion!"

“It’s okay not to go to Lu Mansion, we can go directly to the palace.”

 Gu Panxia was torn, "Have you no choice? I can find an inn near the Lu Mansion, and you can come over tomorrow to pick me up and join me in the palace."

Lu Yuan shook his head, "There is no inn near the Lu Mansion. You can either go directly to the palace to meet the Saint, or go back to the Lu Mansion. You can only choose one of the two."

Gu Panxia gritted her teeth secretly. She was sure that this guy did it on purpose. He could only choose one or the other, but she didn't believe in this evil.

 “I want to stay in an inn, I won’t go to Lu Mansion.”

"That will be your home from now on, don't you want to go and see it?" He was following the instructions.

Gu Panxia snorted coldly, "I won't go if I say I won't!"

Lu Yuan shook his head and chuckled, "Okay, it's up to you. However, you don't have to stay in an inn. I have already prepared your food, clothing, accommodation and transportation."

 He knew her temperament and knew that it was impossible for her to return to Lu Mansion with him, so he was already prepared.

Gu Panxia's eyes widened, "Were you just teasing me?"

Lu Yuan laughed, then shook his head and said, "No, I just invited you sincerely."

 Gu Panxia: “…”

His tone just now didn't sound like he was inviting her, it was clearly forcing her.

　About two-quarters of an hour later, the two stopped in a relatively remote house.

Lu Yuan jumped off the horse first. He looked up at Gu Panxia and said, "We're here."

Just as Gu Panxia was about to jump off, her waist suddenly tightened, and she was lifted off the horse.

She blushed slightly, lowered her head and pretended to flick the non-existent dust on her clothes.

Lu Yuan's eyes overflowed with smiles. This girl was sometimes carefree, and sometimes very shy. She was so cute.

 “Panxia!” he called softly.

 Gu Panxia raised her head in confusion, "Huh?"

Lu Yuan smiled softly, reached out and rubbed her head gently, promising: "I will protect you from now on, always!"

Gu Panxia was startled for a moment, then nodded and smiled brightly, "I will also protect you!"

Lu Yuan nodded unequivocally, "Okay!"

 Gu Panxia pretended to be disgusted and said: "You are really not ashamed at all. When a woman said that she wanted to protect you, you still looked like it was natural."

 Lu Yuan laughed, "It's an honor for me to be protected by my wife."
