Hearing Lu Wu's words, Shen Chu's expression changed slightly, and he felt as if he was seen through in an instant.

How did he know that I came to Yancheng with Xie Ming?

Or does Lu Wu actually know something?

Shen Chu looked at the other person's back as he walked away, and couldn't help but ask Shen Yi beside him, "Brother, are you familiar with his brother?"

Although Shen Yi had already said it once, Shen Chu still wanted to confirm it.

"We're not very familiar with each other, but we get along well."

Shen Yi also answered her again without getting tired of it.

Hearing his words, Shen Chu tightened his grip and said nothing more.

-

They said they were wandering around Yancheng, but in fact, they didn't wander around Yancheng for long. Instead, they quickly returned to the villa.

There was no sign of Xie Ming in the villa, and even Yun Shu's whereabouts were unknown. No one knew where she had gone.

After learning about this situation, Shen Chu sat in the yard, feeling a little bored and in a daze. At this time, Shen Yi had gone somewhere else, and she was the only one sitting in the yard, holding a small wild flower in her hand and in a daze, as if she was daydreaming.

But just at this moment, a voice came over, "What is Mudan doing here?"

Hearing this, Shen Chu paused and looked towards the direction where the voice came from. Sure enough, he saw Xie Yun holding a folding fan.

During the few days in Yancheng, Shen Chu saw him very few times and was a little surprised to hear his voice.

I almost thought I had misheard, but I actually saw Xie Yun.

The other person was wearing a navy blue robe, and the folding fan in his hand no longer represented "free and easy" as before, but had been replaced with "happy and joyful".

I don’t know what the words on his folding fan mean.

Seeing him walking towards her, Shen Chu put down the small wild flower in her hand, raised her eyes and looked over, and said clearly, "My name is not Peony."

It's just a name made up casually, why bother about it?

And he was shouting so loudly.

This was something Shen Chu couldn't understand.

Hearing her words, Xie Yun's smile did not diminish. Instead, he took the initiative to sit down in front of her and said with a smile, "You told me your name was Peony before."

As he said this, he opened his folding fan and waved it slowly.

The person in front of me exuded a sense of nonchalance, and the word "leisure" was written all over him from head to toe.

Just looking at him makes you feel like he has nothing to do all day long.

If that’s the case, then what has he been doing in Yancheng these days?

How come I can’t find anyone?

She was so bored that she wanted to count the petals. What did Xie Yun do all day long?

This made Shen Chu very curious.

Thinking that the real owner was right in front of her, Shen Chu asked directly, "What have you done in Yancheng these days?"

Hearing Shen Chuqi coming here curiously, Xie Yun chuckled and shook his head slowly, "What do you want to know?"

Before the banquet that day, Xie Yun and Shen Chu did not have many opportunities to interact with each other. Many times they just glanced at each other from a distance and could not even see each other's appearance clearly.

Therefore, he didn't know Shen Chu's character very well. It was not until the day when the Queen Mother hosted a banquet for everyone that he had such close contact with Shen Chu for the first time.

It was then that he realized that Shen Chu's personality was so interesting.

It makes people want to get closer.

Although he had never had close contact with the other person before that day, for some reason he was able to confirm her identity the moment he saw her for the first time.

Maybe it was because she mentioned the East Palace.

He had never seen such a bold maid in the entire East Palace.

The maids and guards in the East Palace all kept silent and did not answer others' questions.

Perhaps it was because Shen Chu didn't know Xie Ming's character very well and didn't know how Xie Ming treated his servants, so he revealed such a big flaw at the beginning.

But it was because of this that he confirmed Shen Chu's identity.

"Will you tell me whatever I want to know?"

Sitting opposite Xie Yun, Shen Chu's face showed a hint of ridicule.

I want to see how Xie Yun reacts.

But Xie Yun's reaction was beyond her expectations.

"Yes, I'll tell you whatever you want to know."

His words were serious and there was not a trace of falsehood in them.

Hearing this, Shen Chu's smile faded slightly, and after a while he spoke, "Why did you follow me to Yancheng?"

After saying this, without waiting for Xie Yun to speak, she immediately added, "Don't say that you came to Yancheng for His Highness. You wouldn't even believe it if you said it out loud, right?"

Directly stopped what Xie Yun wanted to say.

Looking at those beautiful eyes staring at him, Xie Yun's fingertips tightened slightly. After a long moment, he gave a short laugh. "If you say so, what should I say?"

Shen Chu was about to respond when Xie Yun spoke again, his expression becoming serious, "I came here for you."

He spoke word by word, and it was impossible to tell whether he was serious or not.

Regardless of whether he was serious or not, Shen Chu didn't think this answer was true.

He just stared at the other person quietly for a while, then suddenly asked, "Does Your Majesty have anything else to do in Yancheng?"

"Your Highness the Wise King has always presented himself as a suave and carefree person, but why do I always feel like he's pretending?"

As soon as these words came out, Xie Yun raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, but he still quickly answered the question, "Of course it's because you have a preconceived impression of me."

"Miss Shen, how about you not hang yourself on this tree, Prince Brother?"

"Look at others once in a while."

The meaning of this sentence is obvious. If Shen Chu can't even understand this, then he has lived half his life in vain.

Before she could answer the question, a sneer rang out, "When did Seventh Brother learn to poach people?"

It wasn't Xie Ming's voice.

But it was the voice of another prince in Yancheng.

The Third Prince Xie Xuan.

What kind of magic does this villa have today that can gather all these people here at once?

Shen Chu picked up the wildflowers that had been placed on the stone table. Her fingertips gently twisted the flower stems, and she spoke with curiosity, "Why did the Third Prince come to the villa today?"

He happened to come when Xie Ming was not around.

What on earth is this trying to do?

Isn't it aimed at her?

Almost the next moment this thought came to her mind, Xie Xuan spoke again, "I came here today mainly for one purpose. I heard that Miss Shen's brother has also come to Yancheng. I wonder if I could meet him. I have something to say to him."

As he said this, he sat down next to Xie Yun very consciously and waited quietly for Shen Chu's answer.

"Miss, I'm sorry, I was delayed just now. Are you okay?"

A cold voice suddenly interrupted, and Yun Shu's figure appeared next to Shen Chu.

Before she could answer, another voice appeared, "Come to see me?"
