Chen Shuyin stepped into the house with a little guilt in her heart. Things did not go as she expected. She went out to look for the thousand-flowered lilies with full confidence, but unexpectedly, those precious flowers were bought by Su Yuchen one step ahead.
This made her think over and over again on the way home, wondering how to explain it to Gu Qingchen.
She gently pushed open the door of the study and saw Gu Qingchen sitting quietly at the desk with a book in his hand, but his eyes were not focused on the pages. He was obviously waiting for her return.
"Qingchen, I'm back." Chen Shuyin said softly, and walked to Gu Qingchen. She lowered her head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I haven't found the Thousand Epiphyllums yet. Those flowers were bought by Su Yuchen in advance. I have to go to him some other day to get them back."
Gu Qingchen put down the book in his hand, looked up at Chen Shuyin, his eyes did not have the slightest blame, but full of tenderness and understanding. He gently held Chen Shuyin's hand, smiled and said: "It's okay, Shuyin, don't blame yourself too much. Although the thousand-flowered lily is precious, it is not irreplaceable. We can always find other ways."
Chen Shuyin felt the warmth of Gu Qingchen's palm, and the guilt in her heart was slightly relieved. She looked up at Gu Qingchen's eyes, trying to find a trace of blame in his eyes, but she was disappointed. There was only concern and comfort in Gu Qingchen's eyes.
"However," Gu Qingchen changed the subject and frowned slightly: "I heard that you embarrassed Princess Mingyue today?"
When Chen Shuyin heard this, a look of surprise flashed across her face, "How did you know?"
She blurted out, but then realized that she might have lost her composure. She took a deep breath and calmed down: "Yes. But that Princess Mingyue did go too far. She spoke rudely to us and laughed at us."
Gu Qingchen shook his head helplessly, "Shuyin, I know all this. But if you embarrass her, it will probably make Zhou Xiangbei hate us even more. You have to know that Zhou Mingyue is on Zhou Xiangbei's side, so we have to be careful."
Chen Shuyin was a little unwilling to hear Gu Qingchen's reminder, but she also understood that Gu Qingchen's worry was justified. She didn't want Gu Qingchen to worry too much about her, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, my husband. I don't think Zhou Mingyue is a big deal. If she dares to mess with us again, I will make her suffer!"
Looking at Chen Shuyin's fearless expression, Gu Qingchen didn't know whether to be happy or sad. He was happy that his wife had such a strong character and courage; he was sad because he knew that the world was not as simple and beautiful as he imagined, and he was afraid that Chen Shuyin would be hurt because of this courage.
"Shuyin," Gu Qingchen sighed softly, "I know you are brave and capable, but sometimes we still have to learn to be patient and compromise."
"I know!" Chen Shuyin interrupted Gu Qingchen with a smile. She didn't want to continue the topic because she knew Gu Qingchen was worried about her. "I will be careful! And I'm not alone, I have you too!"
Looking at Chen Shuyin's confident smile, Gu Qingchen could only smile helplessly. He knew that he could not change Chen Shuyin's decision and could only support her silently and hope that everything would go well for her.
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere in the study became more warm and harmonious.
The next day, the sky was just turning pale, the sun was rising, and the morning glow illuminated the sky. Chen Shuyin got up early, put on her makeup, and set off for the Su Mansion.
She knew clearly that this trip to the Su Mansion was to ask Su Yuchen for the Thousand Epiphyllums, so she had to have a good attitude and strategy.
On the way to the Su Mansion, Chen Shuyin couldn't help but recall the conversation with Gu Qingchen yesterday. She knew that this action was not only about her personal integrity, but also about the trust and cooperation between her and Gu Qingchen. Therefore, she had to go all out and not make any mistakes.
Soon, Chen Shuyin arrived at the gate of the magnificently designed Su Mansion. Standing at the gate were several burly guards, wearing uniform uniforms, with long swords on their waists, staring expressionlessly at everyone who came in and out.
When Chen Shuyin walked to the door, the guards immediately blocked her way. One of the guards looked Chen Shuyin up and down and said coldly: "Little girl, this is not the place for you, go away!"
Chen Shuyin was not intimidated by his attitude. She looked up at the guard and said firmly, "I'm here to find my sister."
"Your sister?" The guard laughed disdainfully, "This is the God of War's residence. Your sister is not here. Go away and don't make trouble here."
Chen Shuyin remained calm and polite. She said neither servilely nor arrogantly, "Su Yuchen is my sister. Please let her know."
When several guards heard Chen Shuyin's words, they were shocked and burst into laughter. One of the guards laughed out loud, "Haha, you said that the female warrior Su Yuchen is your sister? Don't laugh your teeth off!"
The other guards also laughed as if they had heard a big joke. However, Chen Shuyin was not shaken by their ridicule. She remained calm and firm.
"Just go and pass the message, no need to say more." Chen Shuyin said lightly, with an unquestionable majesty in her tone.
Several guards were shocked by Chen Shuyin's aura and were speechless for a moment. They looked at each other and began to doubt whether this seemingly weak little woman was really related to Su Yuchen.
One of the guards frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you wait here, I'll go pass the message."
After saying that, he turned and walked into the Su Mansion.
Chen Shuyin stood at the door and waited quietly, feeling a little uneasy. She knew that whether she could successfully meet Su Yuchen and get the Thousand Epiphyllum back this time depended on the results of the guards' communication.
After a while, the guard came out, looked at Chen Shuyin and said, "Go in, Lord Su agrees to see you."
Chen Shuyin was delighted, but on the surface she remained calm and polite. She nodded slightly to the guard to express her gratitude, and then walked into the Su Mansion.
The interior of the Su Mansion was beautifully laid out and magnificent, revealing a noble and elegant atmosphere everywhere. Chen Shuyin walked forward along the winding corridor, and couldn't help but look forward to meeting Su Yuchen.
Finally, in front of an exquisite attic, Chen Shuyin saw Su Yuchen. She was wearing a suit of armor, looking heroic and majestic, like a female hero.
Seeing Chen Shuyin coming, Su Yuchen smiled slightly and invited her to sit down in the attic. After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Chen Shuyin directly explained her purpose.
