Chapter 32 The Prolonged Test


Chapter 32: The Temptation for a Long Time

On the second day, the smoke and clouds were thick, and Su Jiechen rode a carriage into the mountain early in the morning.

“Miss!?”

Xiao Lin, who had just gotten up to get water to wash up, saw Su Chen coming back from outside alone, and quickly put down the basin in her hand, feeling shocked and confused.

What are you doing, young lady, so early in the morning?

"Cough cough cough."

Before Su Chen could speak, he coughed violently. Xiaolin was so frightened that she rushed to call the doctor.

“Come back.”

Su Chen held back his cough and called Xiaolin back as she was about to run out of the yard.

“I just woke up early today and went shopping alone on the street.”

Su Chen endured a cough and explained weakly.

Xiao Lin was worried, "Miss, remember to call your maid next time you go out. You are not in good health and cannot be tired."

With that said, Xiao Lin gave Su Chen a cup of hot water. Tea, and helped Su Chen into the room.

Su Chen lowered his eyes during the whole process.

After returning to the room, Su Chen looked out the window in the direction of a certain mountain, with a strange smile on his face.

...

“I’m so hungry.”

Early in the morning, Shijiu woke up tormented by his own cravings.

Looking at the dim room, Shijiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and with a wave of his hand, one of the windows in the room was opened.

There were dark clouds outside the window, and the thick clouds completely blocked the scorching sunlight.

Shijiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and his unhappy mood because he didn't wake up disappeared instantly.

"Today is a good day to go out."

Shijiu raised his hand, and the red umbrella standing in the distance instantly appeared in Shijiu's hand, and then disappeared in an instant.

"I wonder if I can eat delicious food today."

As Shijiu said, he had already gone out wearing a curtain hat as tall as a person.

"The King, Miss Shi went out today."

As soon as Shi Jiu left the King's Mansion, someone spread the news to the King's ears.

"Send someone to follow her. I want to know every move she makes." Su Jingyu ordered his men with an unclear expression.

“How are the arrangements for the Dharma Conference? Did Master Changkong say when the Dharma Conference will be held?”

Butler Zhang replied, "Reporting to the Lord of the Kingdom, Master Changkong asked the young master to send a message this morning, saying that the Dharma conference can be held the next day."

Su Jingyu squinted his eyes, and his tone of voice made him laugh. People can't distinguish between joy and anger, "I know, let's go out."

"Why, is there anything else?"

Su Jingyu stood there looking at him with a look of lust. Butler Zhang, who was speechless, frowned slightly.

“Reporting to the Lord, the lady went out this morning and arranged some people at the market.”

Su Jingyu was stunned. He didn't expect that Butler Zhang would actually talk about his daughter, "Isn't today the anniversary of Han Yu's death? If she doesn't go to pay homage, why is she arranging people on the street?"

"I sent people. I went to inquire about it."

When Butler Zhang said this, he paused for a moment and looked at Su Jingyu carefully.

Actually, Butler Zhang never quite understood Su Jingyu’s attitude towards that young lady.

Obviously it was he who personally invited her back to the Lord’s Mansion for a short stay, but he was always wary of her...

Butler Zhang lowered his head and said tactfully: "Young lady seems to have some misunderstanding with Miss Shi..."

"Misunderstanding?"

Su Jingyu frowned slightly, but relaxed it after a while.

The last name Shi has not had any contact with his daughter these days, how can there be any misunderstanding! ?

Nothing more than his daughter...

Su Jingyu thought of this and waved his hand to Butler Zhang, "Secretly arrange some people to protect the young lady."

He knew what his daughter had become in these years.

That's all, it's just right, let's borrow Chen'er's hand to test this mysterious Miss Shi!

“Yes.”

Butler Zhang nodded and exited the room.
