If Shen Chu had known that this would be the scene of the meal, he would not have asked Xu San to treat him to this meal today, even if it was done on another day.

She raised her head to look at Xu San and blinked slowly, "Are you really not going to eat any more?"

She used so much strength in her hands that even if Xu San wanted to leave, he couldn't.

Xu San stared at her with a warning in his eyes.

But Shen Chu ignored it.

In this situation, as a good friend, how could he abandon me?

Besides, it was he who treated us to this meal.

With Shen Chu grabbing his arm, Xu San's face had an ugly expression, but he finally sat down and said in a dry voice, "Then, I'll eat some more."

Forced to eat a little more.

Seeing that Xu San failed to leave, Fu Jinnian immediately gave up the idea of leaving now.

Anyway, the artillery fire hasn't hit him yet, so he can just eat here like a glutton.

Xu San sat here, actually without much to say, but he just wanted to prevent Shen Chu from feeling too embarrassed to be alone.

"Chu'er, are you going back to the villa later?"

As soon as Xie Ming said this, Shen Chu's expression changed immediately.

No, no, stop talking. Why did you ruin her show just by talking?!

"A separate courtyard? What separate courtyard? Chu'er, didn't you say you were staying at a friend's house recently?"

"Your friend is sitting next to you."

Shen Yi's words came out of nowhere, making Shen Chu's scalp tingle.

This is nothing.

She didn't want this at all.

But the key point is that she did not collude with Xie Ming in advance, so Xie Ming cannot be blamed.

Who can you blame?

Is it her own fault?

She is also innocent.

"Yes, my friend has two residences, one in a remote place, and the other in a separate courtyard in the east of the city."

Shen Chu reacted quickly and explained hurriedly.

I hope he can believe what I say.

It’s just that fantasy is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

Shen Yi stared at her for a long time, then slowly looked away.

"is it?"

There was a hint of doubt and questioning in his voice, and he didn't believe what Shen Chu said at first glance.

This made Shen Chu's expression even more embarrassed.

After a period of brainstorming, Shen Chu finally gave up struggling.

His head slammed against the table, and his voice became lifeless. "I'm sorry, brother. I just lied to you."

"I am still the same me, the me who can't wait to be by His Highness' side every day."

Her hopeless voice, coupled with her current appearance, made Xie Ming smile.

Xie Ming laughed briefly, tapped his fingertips on the table, and said lightly, "What's wrong with this?"

Such a reaction was very abnormal. At least in Shen Yi's impression, usually when his sister said such things, Xie Ming's expression was disdainful or indifferent.

It's rare to be as easygoing as it is now.

Even with a doting smile.

"what are you laughing at?"

Shen Yi's voice suddenly sounded, and his eyes swept over him coldly, waiting for his answer.

If it had been just now, Shen Chu would have spoken out to stop them after hearing the two of them arguing with each other like this again, but now she just wanted to lie quietly on the table and pretend that she heard nothing.

Xie Ming didn't show any anger when he heard Shen Yi's words, and his reaction was always cold. "Chu'er looks very cute."

This is in response to Shen Yi's question just now.

Hearing the name "Chu'er" from Xie Ming's mouth again, Shen Yi finally couldn't help but ask, "Who told you to call her like that?"

"Of course it's Chu'er herself."

When Shen Chu, who was lying on the table, heard these words, his scalp went numb and he felt like he had lost his life.

Why is she still staying here?

Is the air outside not fresh enough?

She even began to question herself.

After hearing Xie Ming's answer, Shen Yi's expression became even uglier.

However, he did not continue to be angry with Xie Ming. Instead, he suddenly stood up, reached out and grabbed Shen Chu's arm, and led her out. "We will return to Beijing today."

There was an unyielding majesty in his voice. He seldom treated Shen Chu in this way, so when Shen Chu was caught like this, the expression on his face was briefly dull.

"Brother, didn't you just say you would return to Beijing tomorrow?"

How long has it taken for you to change your mind?

You are too fickle.

Shen Chu said the following words in his heart and did not say them in front of Shen Yi.

But she really wanted to say these words.

After all, she really didn't want to leave with Shen Yi today.

Because if that were the case, her trip would have been in vain.

Those bumps in the road have achieved nothing.

From the moment she left Beijing until now, a total of more than ten days have passed, and her strategy progress bar has not moved at all. She has suffered a lot.

If there is no progress at all, wouldn't her trip here be in vain?

But before Shen Yi could take a few steps away, Yun Shu reached out and grabbed Shen Chu's other arm.

He stared at Shen Yi with an expressionless face and spoke word by word, "Miss Shen does not want to return to Beijing today."

He directly spoke out what was in Shen Chu's heart.

Don't be too good at talking.

Hearing this, Shen Chu wanted to nod to show her agreement, but just as she was about to nod, she reacted and stopped the action in time.

If her brother saw it, he would be furious.

"I'm his brother, and my decision won't harm her."

Shen Yi stared at Yun Shu coldly, his eyes dangerous.

"open."

He spoke in a low voice.

"Miss Shen didn't say she wanted to leave Yancheng."

Yun Shu was as stubborn as ever, standing quietly beside Xie Ming and confronting Shen Yi.

Looking at the hand that was grabbing Shen Chu's arm, Shen Yi suddenly drew out his sword. The sword approached Shen Chu's arm with a sound of breaking wind, and the force seemed to be enough to cut off the arm in one fell swoop.

Shen Chu was so scared that he closed his eyes.

Fortunately, the pain she imagined did not come. Instead, she only heard questions from the people around her, "Do you want a hand or a person?"

At first glance, the tone sounded like something a robber would say.

Hearing this suddenly, Shen Chu couldn't help but raise his eyelids and looked at the people around him in surprise, "Brother, are you going to kill me?"

There was disbelief in his voice as he questioned Shen Yi.

Shen Yi listened to this and said calmly, "I plan to kill him."

Yun Shu's eyelids twitched, and he slowly drew out his knife.

"Then let's have a fight."

There wasn't a trace of fear in his voice, but rather a hint of eagerness to try.

It can be seen that he really has a soft spot for fighting.

Shen Chu slowly rolled his eyes, "If you two want to fight, can you let me go first?"

She is innocent after all.
