After escaping with her bestie, she became the white moonlight of the crazy prince

Xie Ming left the villa very early today. He was busy with more than what Yun Shu told Shen Chu, there were also some other things.

But when Yun Shu brought Shen Chu over, he was indeed busy with these things.

Xie Ming was a little surprised when he saw Shen Chu.

Why is Chu'er here?

Didn’t you tell Yunshu not to bring Chu’er to this kind of place?

Although he had such thoughts in his mind, Xie Ming was still very happy when he actually saw Shen Chu coming here with his own eyes.

Without him noticing, his originally straight lip lines had already quietly curled up.

"Your Highness! I brought you some candied haws."

Shen Chu's voice was cheerful as he trotted towards Xie Ming without paying attention to the situation under his feet.

Just as Xie Ming was about to remind her, Shen Chu slipped and rushed towards Xie Ming!

As she was about to make close contact with the wet ground, her voice became anxious, "Your Highness!"

The distance between the two was not far, but seeing this, Xie Ming couldn't help but open his eyes wide, and his voice was filled with concern, "Chu'er..."

Seeing that his face was about to touch the soil, Shen Chu simply closed his eyes and waited to be judged by fate.

But time passed in silence, and the imagined pain did not come, only a warm embrace.

His large hands tightly embraced her waist, and a low, laughing voice came from above. Shen Chu was still a little confused.

"Chu'er, it's okay."

Xie Ming's voice was gentle, and he raised his hand and poked Shen Chu's face, which had his eyes closed.

His fingertips were a little cold, which stimulated Shen Chu to open his eyes immediately.

The magnified face was close at hand, and the pair of dark eyes stared at Shen Chu tightly, without blinking.

After a long moment, he gave a short laugh.

"what happened?"

"Aren't you going to treat me to candied haws?"

Xie Ming said two sentences in a row, which immediately brought Shen Chu back to his senses. He said immediately, "Of course."

Even when she was about to fall, she didn't let go of the candied haws, which shows how much she values it.

So Shen Chu took a step back and raised the candied haws in his hand to show Xie Ming, "Which one would you like, Your Highness?"

There were three skewers in total, but now there are only two left, and she has already eaten two from one of them.

He held it up on purpose for Xie Ming to see, probably because he knew Xie Ming would not choose this one.

Xie Ming did not answer, but simply lowered his head and bit off a candied haws from the string of which two had already been eaten.

The movements were extremely natural, and he seemed completely unconcerned.

He ate carelessly. Shen Chu was stunned for a long time watching this scene.

Soon, she succeeded in convincing herself.

What do you dislike?

She hadn't eaten anything else.

After this explanation, Shen Chu instantly became extremely receptive.

The earlobes that had originally turned red gradually faded.

“Is this building a drainage ditch?”

Shen Chu looked at a group of tired people not far away and suddenly asked.

Following Shen Chu's gaze, it was a deserted field. No one planted any crops in this field, only weeds.

The man holding a hoe and digging a drainage ditch in the wasteland did not look like the person Xie Ming brought to Yancheng.

Because these people were dressed very casually, with their trouser legs rolled up to their thighs, their thighs were covered with wet or dry mud, and they looked very miserable.

But even so, these people are still working hard for it, as if they are tireless.

Shen Chu couldn't help but frown when he saw this, and subconsciously asked, "Your Highness, are these people the people of Yancheng?"

"They are the people of Yancheng. What's wrong?"

There was nothing unusual on Xie Ming's face when he answered the question, and even his tone was very normal.

But when Shen Chu heard this, he suddenly thought of a question.

"Your Highness also paid them to do things?"

This time, Xie Ming didn't answer so quickly, but asked directly, "What do you think of Chu Er? How did I do it?"

At first glance, there was nothing unusual in his voice, but only Xie Ming himself knew how nervous he was when he asked this question.

The answer Xie Mingxiang wanted was Shen Chu's unconditional belief in him.

Although he knew that this was somewhat unrealistic.

If Shen Chu...

"Of course I believe in Your Highness."

Shen Chu retracted his gaze and looked at Xie Ming, his voice extremely firm, "The reason I asked this is because I guessed that His Highness did this, so I asked this."

After finishing this sentence, Shen Chu did not wait for Xie Ming to speak, and continued, "Your Highness, does drainage work like this need to be done a lot?"

A big part of the reason why Yancheng suffered such a great trauma this time was that Yancheng’s drainage work was not good enough.

The rain keeps falling. It's raining here, but the water in the city can't be drained out. The water is piling up more and more. It may not cause any impact at the beginning, but in the long run, the hidden dangers will become bigger and bigger.

If it weren't for this, there wouldn't be so many houses collapsed in Yancheng.

Xie Ming answered Shen Chu's doubts, "Yes, Yancheng needs to add dozens of drainage canals like this, including in the city."

However, it would be much more difficult to carry out the work in Yancheng, so we can only start outside the city.

"Then... Your Highness, do you have enough money?"

This question caught Xie Ming off guard, and for the first time, a blank expression appeared on his face.

After a long while, he finally answered Shen Chu's question, "Are you worried about this?"

Why worry about this?

This was the first time Xie Ming had a face that was both funny and sad. He quickly spoke again, "I don't know what gave you the illusion, but I have quite a lot of money."

Xie Ming's statement is still relatively conservative.

The ten thousand taels of gold he casually threw at the auction house in the capital could hire these people for a long time.

However, this was his own money, not paid from the Qi State treasury.

Anyone else would never do such a thing.

But Xie Ming did it anyway.

"Is that so?"

Shen Chu's voice was filled with curiosity. She suddenly raised her head and stared at Xie Ming, "Then Your Highness, can you give me some?"

She said it casually and didn't expect Xie Ming to answer her seriously.

Xie Ming answered very seriously, "Okay, when we get back to the capital, Chu'er can get whatever she wants."

Paint cake.

Shen Chu evaluated in his heart.

"In that case, I will definitely not be polite."

Shen Chu stared at Xie Ming's dark eyes without blinking.

Xie Ming was about to say something, but Yun Shu suddenly interrupted, his voice a little anxious.

It was rare to see such an expression on Yun Shu's face, and Shen Chu was a little curious about what had happened.

Soon, she found out.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince... has arrived in Yancheng!"
