Seeing that Su Xuan was silent, Su Xiaoxiao continued, “You don’t want to answer, right? Alright, I’ll change the question. Where were you five years ago?
Have you been to Broken North Pass?”
If it were Su Li or any other cousin of the Su family, she would not ask this because they were all in the capital.
Only Su Xuan had gone to his maternal grandparents’ house to recuperate since he was ten years old and lived there for a few years.
He did not stay in the Guo family obediently the entire time. He must have a way to go out and “travel”. Otherwise, how could he know Elder Lou of the Southern Wilderness? And set up so many traps in the Southern Wilderness?
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes were sharp and firm, not allowing Su Xuan to avoid her.
“I have.” Su Xuan said.
“Little sidekick!”
Princess Hui An walked out helplessly. “Boss said that their shop is a small business and doesn’t do reservations. If you want to eat, you can only buy it tomorrow!”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Xuan. “Then I’ll come again tomorrow.”
Princess Hui An asked Su Xiaoxiao strangely, “Why do you keep staring at him?”
Su Xiaoxiao retracted her gaze. “My cousin is good-looking. I can’t help but take a few more glances.”
Princess Hui An curled her lips. “Am I not good-looking?”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Huahua is an outstanding beauty. She can overturn cities and countries.”
Princess Hui An enjoyed it.
Although there had been many people praising her since she was young, her sidekick did not often praise her.
Princess Hui An’s gaze landed on Su Xuan’s other hand. “Cousin, what are you holding?”
Su Xuan handed her the paper bag that was still steaming. “Pastries.”
Princess Hui An took it. “Did you really buy them? Didn’t you tear your sleeves?
Don’t go next time.”
Su Xuan agreed readily. “Okay.”
Princess Hui An said to the two of them, “Let’s go back!”
The three of them returned to Elder Lou’s residence.
Princess Hui An went to share the rice cakes and pastries with Su Li.
Su Xiaoxiao sat down on the stone stool and waited for Wei Ting.
Su Xuan left the courtyard and found Su Xiaoxiao’s carriage.
Ah Fu leaned against the carriage seat. He looked like he was taking a nap, but he had actually been drugged.
There was no need to remove it. He would wake up in a while.
Su Xuan got into the carriage and grabbed a poisonous snake under the carriage. He also took out a poisonous pill.
He destroyed the poisonous pill and brought the poisonous snake into the courtyard to hand it to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Where did you get it?”
Su Xuan said, “I found it outside.”
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t doubt him.
She grabbed the snake and packed it in a cloth bag. When she returned, she would process it into a medicinal ingredient.
Wei Ting queued for six hours and only returned in the afternoon with the spring chicken.
This time, he learned his lesson and spent a lot of money to buy five.
She would take one. She could split the rest however she wanted.
Su Xiaoxiao left one for Princess Hui An.
Su Li asked, “Where’s mine?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “You can’t eat spicy food while recuperating!” Su Li’s face darkened.
“Huahua, I’m leaving.” Su Xiaoxiao bade farewell to Princess Hui An.
Princess Hui An turned around and looked at Su Xuan’s room. The door was closed, and Su Xiaoxiao did not go in to bid farewell to him.
Princess Hui An nodded. “Go.”
On the way back, Su Xiaoxiao said nothing.
Wei Ting sensed that something was wrong with her and asked, “What’s wrong with you today?”
Su Xiaoxiao sighed. “Wei Ting, will you hide anything from me?”
Wei Ting said, “That depends on what it is.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “It’s not an embarrassing matter.”
Wei Ting observed that a wife knew her husband best.
Su Xiaoxiao changed her words. “Or will you hide it from your family?”
Wei Ting washed his hands with water from the kettle and tore a piece of delicate chicken for her. “I’m not Second Brother who keeps everything to himself.”
Su Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought.
Wei Ting fed the chicken to her mouth, and she sucked it soullessly.
Wei Ting was amused by her expression. “What’s wrong with you today? Do you suspect that I’m hiding something from you, or are you hiding something from me?
After Su Xiaoxiao finished the chicken, she asked him, ‘What if I hid something from you? Will you be angry?”
Wei Ting continued to feed her. “If you were afraid that I would be angry, you wouldn’t have hidden it from me.”
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. ‘What if I have my difficulties and can’t admit it?”
She took another bite.
The chicken was very tender and slightly spicy, with a hint of sweetness and peppery numbness. It had a strange texture.
Wei Ting looked into her eyes. “Is this person with difficulties you’re talking about you or someone else?”
As expected of the top scholar, his intuition was so sharp.
Su Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes and sighed. She leaned her head on his shoulder. “Just treat it as me. If that person refuses to tell me, I can’t tell you because I can’t give you the wrong information.”
Su Xuan only admitted that he had been to Broken North Pass, but he did not admit that he was the one who had captured Wei Xu.
Naturally, he did not deny it.
So was it him or not?
Logically, it didn’t seem like him.
But if it wasn’t him, why didn’t he deny it?
Wei Ting: “Su Xuan again?” Su Xiaoxiao denied it. “No.” Wei Ting said, “Looks like it.”
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.
Wei Ting snorted. “On account of you taking the initiative to throw yourself at me, I won’t ask further. We’ll talk when you want to say it.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I didn’t throw myself at you.”
Wei Ting glanced at the little head on his shoulder. “Then what is this?”
Su Xiaoxiao said righteously, “Finding a pillow to lean on.”
Wei Pillow was speechless.
Although Wei Ting said that he would not ask further, he immediately rushed into Wei Qing’s room and closed the door.
“Second Brother, what secrets does Su Xuan have?”
Changliu Lane.
Su Li lay on the rattan chair and ate snacks.
Princess Hui An carried the plated crisps and rice cakes to Su Xuan’s room.
“Little Sidekick and Brother Ting have left,” Princess Hui An said.
“Got it,” Su Xuan replied and continued to sit in front of the window to read.
Princess Hui An sat down opposite him. “Did you quarrel with my Little Sidekick?” su Xuan: “No.”
Princess Hui An asked, “But why do I feel that there’s something strange between you?”
Su Xuan flipped a page. “Is there?”
Princess Hui An nodded. “Yes. Did you have a misunderstanding? If it’s not convenient for you to tell her, you can tell me. I’ll explain to her.”
Su Xuan said softly, “There’s no misunderstanding. Princess, you don’t have to worry.”
Seeing that he was unwilling to say, Princess Hui An stopped asking. “You should follow what they do. Call me Huahua.”
Su Xuan said, “Yes.”
Princess Hui An muttered, “You always agree. You never call me that.”
Su Xuan didn’t seem to hear her and continued to read the book in his hand.
He was dressed in white and looked like a peerless young master.
His quiet and handsome appearance made people feel that time was peaceful.
Princess Hui An unknowingly stared at him for a long time.
Until Su Li shouted in the courtyard, “My feet… Ah! They’re numb! They’re numb!”
Princess Hui An hurriedly looked away, stood up, and touched her hot cheek. “I’ll go out and take a look.”
“Princess.”
Su Xuan stopped her. “Don’t fall in love with Ah Xuan.”
Princess Hui An held her breath.
Su Xuan flipped through the book and lowered his long eyelashes. “Ah Xuan isn’t worth it..”
