A dream ends life

What came into view was a handsome face with clear lines. Before Su Ci could take a closer look, Xiao Che also opened his eyes.

Seeing the little woman in her arms looking at her, she smiled knowingly at her.

Su Ci's heart skipped a beat and she put her hand on his cheek.

The slender hand grabbed the rebellious tender hand and rubbed it in the palm of his hand. Xiao Che's heart softened like a pool of water.

His Adam's apple rolled and they leaned over and entangled with each other.

They were reluctant to separate until they were both out of breath.

Su Ci leaned against his chest: "I, I'm hungry."

Xiao Che almost couldn't help but transform into a wolf again.

Did she know how tempting this sentence was to him?

He said in a hoarse voice, "I'll ask someone to bring the food."

The two of them stood up, and soon the maids came in to help them wash and dress.

At the dinner table, the two sat in silence. Xiao Che peeled a shrimp and placed it in front of Su Ci, motioning for Su Ci to open his mouth.

Su Ci looked at the slender hand in front of him with some surprise, with a little sauce on the fingers.

Some of it ruins the beauty of these hands.

The high and mighty Prince Jia could peel shrimps for her to eat with his own hands. It would be a lie to say that she was not touched. This man always took care of her feelings when he was with her.

I opened my mouth and bit the shrimp, and sucked the sauce off my fingers as I left. Well, it looks much better.

Xiao Che's body stiffened, his fingers trembled, and he looked at Su Ci with red eyes.

Su Ci was confused, "What's wrong?"

"I can do it myself, Your Highness, you can eat too." Are you unhappy?

Xiao Che looked at Su Ci's hands, which were white, slender, plump and full, and said, "I want to eat shrimp too."

Su Ci blinked. Was he asking her to return it?

"Isn't the prince a vegetarian?"

"I'm not a monk, eat whatever you want."

Su Ci choked and said, "That's true. It's not that people like to eat vegetarian food. It's not that they can't eat vegetarian food."

Pick up a shrimp and start peeling it.

Xiao Che placed his eyes on her hands and watched her peel the shrimps bit by bit. When she was about to put them in the bowl, he leaned over and held the shrimps and fingers in his mouth.

Su Ci felt numb all over, as if an electric current had passed through her. She finally understood what was wrong with him.

This meal can't be eaten well.

Next, Xiao Che peeled shrimps for Su Ci, and Su Ci fed him the peeled shrimps.

The two of them were going back and forth, Xiao Che was peeling the fruits while Su Ci was feeding them.

The feeding method was changed from hand feeding to mouth feeding.

Xiao Che felt that the shrimp in her mouth was more delicious than the one he ate.

Before finishing the meal, Su Ci went back to bed in a daze, "I'm not full yet."

With a loud bang, Xiao Che's last bit of rationality was successfully defeated by her, and the room was turned into a sea of ​​​​red waves.

This man is so good at it, every experience is different for her, making her more and more unable to cope.

When I woke up again, it was already the second watch.

Xiao Che picked the person up, took a bowl of Tremella and lotus seed soup in his hand, and started feeding Su Ci again.

Su Ci was not pretentious. She ate whatever he fed her, and they both enjoyed it.

When it was almost dawn, they returned to bed.

Xiao Che hugged her and said softly, "Sleep well. Rest well today and don't go out again."

Su Ci paused for a moment, but then nodded: "Okay."

The two fell asleep in each other's arms.

It was already noon and the seat next to him was empty; Xiao Che had left at some point.

Su Ci smiled. Today was the fifteenth day of the lunar month, the Empress Dowager's birthday. He must be very busy. It was hard for him to be distracted by her.

This year is the Empress Dowager’s 66th birthday, so as her son, he naturally has to do everything himself.

"Master!" Chunshui came here at some point in time.

Su Ci nodded, "How are those people?"

Chunshui said, "Today they are having dinner at Chunmanlou and discussing whether to stay or go the day after tomorrow."

As expected, Su Ci didn't react much.

Chunshui seemed to be hesitant to speak. He looked at Su Ci and tried to speak several times, but then held it back.

"Anything else?"

Chunshui said, "Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday. I heard that not only the important people in Huaxi City, but even the city lord will go to celebrate her birthday."

Su Ci thought for a moment and asked, "Did Cheng Zhi and the others go there too?"

Chunshui nodded, but was that the point?

Her master now has a special relationship with Prince Jia. Didn’t Prince Jia invite her?

"Master, we..."

Su Ci said: "We have already prepared the gifts, so we don't need to send them again."

The gift was just a stepping stone. Her gift was delivered by Xiao Che. It didn't matter to her whether the Empress Dowager knew about it or not. It was enough for Xiao Che to understand it.

"But, but..." Chunshui was anxious.

Does the master not mind at all? Prince Jia did not invite her, does that mean he does not acknowledge their relationship?

Su Ci lowered her eyes, "Chun Shui, I know what you are thinking. You must remember that Prince Jia and I are just taking what we need from each other. There will be no future for us. Please be careful about our distance."

Chunshui bit her lip and said nothing, feeling uncomfortable in her heart.

Suddenly I thought of something, "Uncle Chang said that the Regent will also come to Huaxi City today. I wonder if he is here to celebrate the birthday or for that Cheng Zhi?"

Su Ci's face was solemn. Yu Luohan's coming at this time must be related to the Chamber of Commerce. No wonder Cheng Zhi was so confident.

"Let's go to Hongyun Building."

Lucky Building

When the shopkeeper in charge saw the token in Su Ci's hand, he was shocked. This was their master's boss.

"Big Boss!"

Su Ci...

Well, that's a creative name.

After Su Ci learned about the situation in Shangjing, he asked, "Is there any movement from the King of Huainan?"

The steward said, "The Huainan Palace has been secretly mobilizing troops recently, but was caught by Prince Yu's men. Now that man is being held by the Huainan Prince."

Su Ci raised an eyebrow, "Tell Prince Yu the news and reveal that Prince Huainan has his own army."

Prince Yu's fiefdom is adjacent to Huainan. If the handle is handed to him, Prince Yu will surely strike first.

It also makes him famous!

With them taking the lead, how can the other kings remain in power?

"By the way, where did your master and the poison doctor go?"

It has been a long time since she last saw the fat girl, so she was still a little uncomfortable with it.

The steward rubbed his nose. Since the master hadn't told him not to reveal their whereabouts, he should be able to tell them, right?

"The master has important things to do, and no news has come yet."

The manager thought about it again and again, but still did not tell Qi Baixiao's whereabouts.

Su Ci frowned, feeling a little uneasy. What was going on?

Thinking about the fat girl's behavior, his eyebrows twitched and he stood up to say goodbye.

The carriage went to Chang Feng's residence, and he gave instructions for the day after tomorrow, and then said, "Uncle Chang, what's the situation at the gold mine?"

Chang Feng thought for a moment and said, "Everything is as usual."

Su Ci said: "Qi Baixiao and Mei Yizhen will probably go. After they meet them, ask Mei Yizhen to come to Huaxi City immediately."

There was no response from Chang Feng for a long time.

Su Ci looked up and saw Chang Feng looking out the window with a frown on his face.

They were on the second floor, with their windows facing the street, and standing at the window they could see most of the street.

Follow his gaze.

Su Ci's heart sank.

Xiao Che was standing at the door of the mansion across the street and talking to a young woman. They must have just come out.

The woman was pretty and lively. She suddenly grabbed Xiao Che's arm and said something. Xiao Che looked doting and said something.

The woman's big eyes were filled with surprise, and she took his hand and shook it.

The man is tall and strong, and the woman is delicate and lovely. From a distance, they look like a perfect match!
