After discovering that Shen Chu was deliberately avoiding his gaze, Xie Ming realized that something was wrong.

He sat down next to Shen Chu, and suddenly reached out and held Shen Chu's hand. He lowered his voice so that only the two of them could hear it and said, "Okay, all the herbs he bought have been taken back."

Shen Chu still ignored him.

Xie Ming did not lose heart and continued, "I know you are angry with me. It's not that I don't want to take you there, but I think it's not good for you to get involved in this kind of thing."

Once Shen Chu gets too involved in some things, it will be difficult for him to get out of it.

He knew this clearly, so he didn't want this to happen.

But what Xie Ming didn't know was that since Shen Chu had already decided to come to Yancheng with him, he didn't take all this to heart at all.

Shen Chu was very annoyed by his behavior of pushing her further and further away.

She was willing to accept it, but Xie Ming still wanted to do something unnecessary.

This is the most critical point.

Shen Chu hated this very much.

Since she was willing to accompany Xie Ming from the capital to Yancheng, it meant that she was willing to stand by Xie Ming's side, but how did Xie Ming treat her?

If she is afraid of getting into trouble, it would be better to let her go back to the capital.

After all, her father is there and she can rely on him.

And daddy won't let her do anything.

This is also the thing that Shen Chu should be most thankful for.

She was not like other time travelers who encountered all kinds of messy things when they came here. She only needed to do one thing from beginning to end, and that was to conquer Xie Ming. However, if she chose not to conquer Xie Ming, she would not be punished.

The only thing that bothered her was that she couldn't return to the modern world.

But the people here are very nice to her, and her best friends are all here, so it’s not a prison for her.

It’s just that there aren’t as many entertainment options as in modern society, but it’s better to have Fuling accompany her.

They can have fun together in the capital. If they meet someone they like, they will get married. If they don’t meet someone they like, they will stay together with their friends until old age.

She believed that her brother's ability was more than enough to take care of her. At worst, she could save some money during this period and spend it when she was old.

By then, she, Fuling and their dog will be free and at ease. Isn't that a wonderful thing?

After figuring all this out, Shen Chu no longer had such a deep obsession with Xie Ming. She no longer cared about the progress bar and left it to fate whether she could conquer him 100%.

Anyway, he has to go back to the capital first. She can't stay in Yancheng for a day. She is so annoyed. It is better to be in the capital. At least Fuling is still in the capital.

I don’t know if Fuling missed her in the past half month. If Fuling missed her, then they would be true best friends.

But she will soon know the answer to this question, because she will set off for Beijing tomorrow.

Xu San, Fu Jinnian and Zhuifeng will go with her, so Goudan will have to stay here, after all, Goudan's parents are also here.

As for Yunshu, he is Xie Ming's personal bodyguard. If she takes Yunshu away, it would be a bit too rude. It is better to leave Yunshu here.

Shen Chu had clearly told Yun Shu about these ideas. Yun Shu tried to persuade him, but Shen Chu did not accept his opinion. He just smiled and spoke indifferently.

"It's okay. You will be able to return to the capital soon. As for the drought-stricken areas on the other side, I believe that Your Highness will be able to deal with them quickly. If not, we will meet in the capital."

When saying these words, the expression on Shen Chu's face remained gentle, and no emotion could be seen. It was as if she was calmly explaining everything and the fact that she was about to leave.

She never told Xie Ming these words from beginning to end. Even Xie Ming's guards knew that she was going back to Beijing tomorrow, but Xie Ming didn't know.

Yun Shu struggled with this in his heart for a long time, and still felt that he should tell His Highness about this matter, but now that Miss Shen was right beside him, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

If you want to speak, you can only do so when the person is not here.

Otherwise, he felt that doing so would be a bit unfair to Miss Shen. After all, Miss Shen treated him as a good friend.

I betrayed Miss Shen so easily, which must have made her very sad.

Yun Shu didn't care whether this was true or not. In his heart, Shen Chu was just that kind of person.

If he told Xie Ming about this matter right away, Shen Chu would definitely have a rift with him because of it.

Yun Shu didn't want to see this happen. In order to avoid this happening between him and Shen Chu, he could only put the matter aside for the time being. When he was alone with Xie Ming, he began to convey these words.

He would not repeat everything word for word, he would just briefly explain that Shen Chu would be returning to Beijing tomorrow.

But no one knows it.

In fact, Xie Ming himself was the one who contributed the most to this matter.

Yun Shu was reluctant to let Shen Chu leave but was unable to stop him, so he had no choice but to resort to this last resort.

When Xie Ming opened his mouth again and again without receiving any response, he finally realized that something was wrong.

Under normal circumstances, Shen Chu would never treat him like this.

He became quiet and said nothing more.

Just sit there quietly.

This meal was exceptionally quiet.

Seeing Shen Chu finally put down her chopsticks, Xie Ming couldn't wait any longer and reached out to pull her away.

This time Shen Chu did not ignore him, but actually followed him outside.

After there was no one around, Xie Ming spoke, "Chu'er, are you going back to Beijing?"

The moment he asked this question, Shen Chu's heart was filled with shock. He almost immediately raised his head, with confusion and shock in his eyes.

How could he know!

Could it be that Yun Shu told him?

But...but she didn't see Yun Shu speak to Xie Ming?

No, that's not the case.

Shen Chu immediately denied his guess, it couldn't be like that.

Then there is only one possibility, that is, Xie Ming guessed it himself!

How could that be? How could he have guessed that?

Was it really that obvious? Shen Chu was a little surprised.

She thought she had hidden it well enough, but after catching a glimpse of Shen Chu's shocked look, Xie Ming confirmed her guess.

Yes, Shen Chu is indeed going back to Beijing.

Although he had guessed this day a long time ago, he still felt reluctant when it finally came. Xie Ming didn't want Shen Chu to leave him, but this was her own choice and he would not interfere.

He had thought about asking Shen Chu to go back many times but in vain. He knew that he was reluctant to let her go, but if Shen Chu proposed it himself, he couldn't refuse.
